Stop ordering iced espresso drinks to go. A near-boiling shot of espresso pulled straight into a cold plastic cup can leach small amounts of endocrine-disrupting compounds (think Bisphenol A and its cousins) into your drink. The fix is simple: ask for the ice and water or milk to go in first, then the espresso. I’ve seen it done the other way too many times to count—which is why I usually skip it and stick to cold brew.

Under some videos people have asked if I was using a filter or had a stroke. Nope. Horner’s syndrome. Due to migraines (we think). Totally random. Biology… wild!

Avocados are one of the most brain-healthy foods you can eat. They’re rich in monounsaturated fat, which supports cardiovascular health, and what’s good for your heart is generally good for your brain. They’re also packed with fiber, potassium (more than a banana, gram for gram), folate, and lutein, a carotenoid that accumulates in the brain and has been linked to better cognitive function.
