Good morning!

Here's your Saturday 7 roundup!

📽️ What's a week late:

Last week I shared a keynote I gave on what your teeth say you should eat. 

The registrations to access it were through the roof! 

I know there's no cost but your interest and taking the time to watch means a lot to me. THANK YOU! 

But I was missing something!

I was working on a trailer for it and it wasn't finished in time. Now it is!

Here's the Trailer:

If you haven't already, and the trailer inspires you, you can watch the full keynote here.

P.S.

Thank you for all the kind words and all the people that shared it 🙏

🦷 What causes a fall and a rise:

In the keynote, I reveal 3 clues hiding right under your nose about what you should(n't) eat.

The 1st Clue is cavities. 

Cavities are the most common disease in the world. They are caused by bacteria in your mouth turning carbohydrates into acid.

But the damage isn't localized to the mouth.

For example, certain carbs result in more acid than others. And the more a carbohydrate increases acid in the mouth, the more it also spikes blood glucose levels.

⬇️ oral pH = ⬆️ blood sugar 

The steeper the fall in oral pH, the higher the rise in blood sugar. 

Avoiding high glycemic foods helps prevent both cavities and blood glucose spikes that complicate diabetes control.

This oral pH — glycemic index correlation is just another example, of the many compelling arguments, that diets bad for dental health are bad for general health.

A clue that maybe we shouldn't be eating so many carbs...

3️⃣ How to express ideas:

When preparing the keynote I was faced with a dilemma.

I had 30 minutes to give the talk, but my 1st draft rehearsal was 2 hours and 30 minutes 😂

So, I had to cut out many clues, boiling it down to just 3.

According to this article, that was a good idea.

There are 3 rules to express your thoughts so that everyone will understand you. 

1. Only make 3 points
2. Explain each point in 3 ways
3. Repeat key points 3 times

💡How to connect the dots:

Over the last 10 years, I've had a unique career path between pediatric dentistry (fixing kids' teeth), dental sleep medicine (treating sleep apnea), and independent research (nutrition).

It was the combining of multiple disciplines, from dental archeology to bodybuilding, over more than a decade, that allowed me to piece together what was presented in the 30 minute keynote.

🧠 What quote I've been thinking about:

If I knew I were going to live this long, I'd have taken better care of myself.

– Mickey Mantle

📊 What's a security:

The SEC said, "We believe every asset other than bitcoin is a security." And, we said, "Well how are you coming to that conclusion, because that’s not our interpretation of the law." And they said, we’re not going to explain it to you, you need to delist every asset other than bitcoin.

– Brian Armstrong, Coinbase CEO.

There is regulatory uncertainty in "crypto," but increasing clarity around bitcoin. 

This continues to validate a primary appeal of bitcoin in that it is a flight to safety asset, a lifeboat off of a sinking ship. Whereas "crypto" seems to be the opposite, an asset class that could sink at the stroke of a regulatory pen.

▶️ How to navigate YouTube:

People spend more time on YouTube than almost anywhere.

Might as well learn how to use it more efficiently!

Here are YouTube shortcodes that can save you countless hours that you can spend watching more videos :)

Some of my favorites:

• j: rewind 10 seconds
• l: fast-forward 10 seconds
• c: captions on/off
• f: fullscreen
• up / down arrow: volume
• 0 (zero): back to the beginning
   

As always, it's an absolute pleasure and honor getting to spend some time with you, hope you have a great weekend!
