đŻđ„ What would happen if...Â
- What if I ate a jar of honey after years of not eating any carbohydrates?
- Would I feel terrible? Would cravings return?
Or would my muscles fill out and my training skyrocket?
- What if I ate 2 avocados after not eating a gram of fiber for years?
- Had my microbiome morphed? Would it be overwhelmed and unable to handle this fiber? Would I bloat? Vomit? Explode?
- I spent months conducting these experiments and writing this article on "Carbohydrates and the Carnivore Diet."Â

 âłÂ What to tee up -
- To accompany the "Carbohydrates and the Carnivore Diet" article (above) I recorded podcasts with the Strong Sistas and Danny Vega, carnivore-eaters
who have experimented with carbohydrates. Both these chats are linked to within the article, but here are direct links to the podcasts if you want to tee them up in your favorite podcasting app. I think listening to these after reading the article is best, so that you have the full context.
đ What's really emitting carbon -Â
- Just 20 companies create 1/3 of the world's carbon emissions. Emissions, GHGs, environment and climate encompass an incredibly complex web of interrelated topics, and is going to be a major focus of my research and writing next year. But I found this latest report revealing and worth getting the conversation started.Â

 đ„ What record was broken -Â
- Eliud Kipchoge became the 1st person to ever run a sub 2-hour marathon. Of course he had help. Most people are focusing on the Nike shoes that provided an "unfair" advantage. But I think just as important are the people you can see in the clip running behind him. They are pace setters. I can't help but see the
parallel in life. Friends, family, coworkers act as your pace makers. They can be your "unfair" advantage speeding you up and catapulting you to new heights or they can slow you down. Choose your pace makers (and shoes) carefully.

đ§ What equation I've been thinking about -
Â
Ignorance + Conviction = Arrogance

ââïž What's stubborn -Â
- How important is economic growth? I read a couple reviews (here and here) about Tyler Cowen's new book, "Stubborn Attachments," and then immediately added it to the top of my reading list.
đ What failures I'm studying -
