Mitochondria make light inside brown fat cells during cold thermogenesis. Some of that light is in the UVB range, and it converts cholesterol into previtamin D. That's how the human body maintains health Vitamin D metabolism during the winter, without sunshine. Or did you think it was by eating baby seal blubber?

Most people trying keto or carnivore still eat too little fat. Fat-forward eating is what actually teaches your body to become fat adapted. When you give your body enough dietary fat, your liver starts shifting fuel sources. Instead of depending on constant glucose, it learns to run on fat and produce ketones for steady energy. That’s when hunger changes. You stop needing snacks every few hours. Energy lasts longer. Cravings calm down because your brain finally trusts that fuel is available. Carbs give quick energy. Fat gives long energy. And your body is designed for that. Your brain is about 60% fat. Your hormones depend on fat. Your cell membranes depend on fat. Fat-soluble vitamins depend on fat. Even your ability to stay full between meals depends on fat. Fat isn’t the problem people think it is. 👑 For a lot of us, it’s the missing piece.

I lost 138 lbs eating 120-150 grams of fat a day. Let me say that again for the people in the back. One hundred and fifty grams of fat. Per day. Bacon. Butter. Egg yolks. Chuck steak. Ground beef. I was flooding my body with animal fat and my body responded by healing everything. My hormones balanced. My insulin resistance reversed. My metabolism healed. My inflammation dropped. My brain fog cleared. My skin improved. My joints stopped aching. All from eating the one thing we’ve been told for 50 years would kill us. Here’s what they don’t tell you about fat. Your brain is nearly 60% fat. Every single cell in your body has a fat based membrane that controls what goes in and out. Your hormones, the ones that regulate everything from your mood to your metabolism to your menstrual cycle, are built from fat. Specifically saturated fat and cholesterol. The very things they told us to stop eating. Fat is what allows your body to absorb vitamins A, D, E, and K. Without fat, you can eat all the vegetables in the world and your body can’t even use the nutrients. Fat is what keeps you full. Fat is what keeps your blood sugar stable. Fat is what gives your body long, steady energy instead of the crash and burn cycle you get from carbs and sugar. And what did we do? We went low fat. We replaced butter with margarine. We replaced lard and tallow with seed oils. We filled everything with sugar to make up for the flavor we lost when we took the fat out. And then we wondered why everyone got sick, got fat, got diabetic, got depressed, and got put on fifteen medications. The low fat era was the biggest nutritional disaster in modern history. And we’re still living in the fallout. I ate more fat than most people would ever be comfortable with. And it gave me my life back.🧈👑

13 Ball Handling Drills That Could Transform Your Game Even if your athleticism is limited (relatively speaking), this can help you constantly beat much quicker players off the dribble. All of these workouts you can do by yourself OR with a defender. Because becoming a great scorer isn’t just about the shot. It’s also about everything that helps you create it.

MICRON $MU CEO SAYS THE COMPANY CAN ONLY SUPPLY 50-65% OF WHAT CUSTOMERS NEED RIGHT NOW This isn’t just Micron, Samsung, or SK Hynix. It’s a full-stack constraint that benefits the broader memory and storage ecosystem, including NAND from $SNDK and $WDC, capacity-driven disks from $STX, and system-level storage platforms and arrays from $P. AI demand for DRAM is outpacing supply by an “unprecedented” gap. New fabs take years, and the shortage is expected to persist beyond 2026.

Gary Brecka says the fastest way to strip fat is the 30-30-30 method: 30 grams of protein within 30 minutes of waking, followed by 30 minutes of steady-state cardio (keep heart rate under 135). He explained why intense fasted workouts often fail: after 20 minutes your glycogen is gone, so your body starts burning lean muscle for energy instead of fat. You destroy muscle during the session and rebuild it at night — net zero fat loss. The 30-30-30 protocol (popularized by Tim Ferriss in The 4-Hour Body) fixes that by giving your body fuel first, then keeping the workout in the fat-burning zone. Have you tried the 30-30-30 method, or would you?

Everyone thinks losing weight is just about eating less. But most people: - Starve themselves - Kill their metabolism... And don´t even lose weight anyway. So here are 10 metabolism cheat codes to melt stubborn fat (without eating less): 🧵 1. Do NOT go Vegan. The vegan diet completely lacks 12 different nutrients that only exist in animal-based foods. These nutrients are vital for your metabolism and hormones. Steak and eggs are two of the best foods in the world for metabolism, weight loss and health. 2. Resistance train Muscle is the #1 fat-burning organ. It burns calories 24/7, even while you sleep. - Go close to failure - Train 3 hours a week - Focus on compound exercises 3. Eat more protein. You burn off 20-30% of the calories you get from protein just by digesting it. It also lowers hunger and helps maintain and build muscle to burn even more calories too. Eat 1g per lb of bodyweight everyday. 4. Don´t cut out carbs too much. Low-carb = lower thyroid and testosterone. You´ll also feel more sluggish which reduces your calorie-burn from NEAT. Eat as much fruit as you want and potatoes instead of bread and pasta. 5. Improve your sleep. Poor sleep crushes your metabolism. Think about how more physically tired you feel after a night of bad sleep. Don´t eat late in the evening, keep your bedroom cooler and supplement magnesium glycinate. 6. Cold exposure. It´s not a fad - it´s scientifically proven. It boosts your metabolism and activates brown fat oxidation. All you need to get the benefits is 2-minute cold showers 7. Manage stress. High cortisol slows your metabolism and makes your body want to hold onto fat. The best way to reduce stress? Improve your physical health. Healthy diet. Exercise. Better sleep. 8. Fuel your thyroid. It´s the organ that literally runs your metabolism but nobody thinks about it. Even worse? Very low-calorie diets actually slow it down making it even harder to lose fat. Make sure you: - Get enough iodine & selenium - Improve your sleep & manage stress. 9. Eat as much fruit as you want. Certain influencers will claim that fruit is bad due to the sugar... As if people are overweight due to eating a lot of fruit... But nobody got fat from fruit. It was from a ton of calories from processed junk and a lack of exercise. Fruit is still low in calories as it´s mostly water and the sugar and vitamins help keep you healthy and your metabolism firing. The best fruits for metabolism and weight loss are berries and watermelon. The Bottom Line: The best way to lose weight is NOT eating way less. It´s boosting your metabolism so you can eat enough and still lose weight. Imagine how easy it would be to lose weight if you could eat a lot and not be too hungry? If you liked this post: 1.

Andrew Huberman dropped a brutal truth on The Nine Club: People shed fat shockingly fast once they quit letting ultra-processed carbs and fats hijack their brain — and eat only meat, fish, eggs, fruit, vegetables, water, coffee, or tea. No bread. No pasta. No rice. No alcohol. No sneaky negotiations. The real revelation isn’t the list. It’s how fast hunger signals recalibrate when the engineered override disappears. One ribeye and greens can kill cravings that “balanced” meals never touched. It forces a deeper question: How much of our food struggle is willpower… and how much is biology getting hijacked by modern design? Have you ever stripped back to whole foods only — and been stunned by how quickly your appetite or cravings changed? What actually lasted, and what dragged you back into the old cycle?

The #1 food quietly destroying your liver right now… isn’t alcohol, sugar, or cholesterol. It’s industrial seed oils (canola, soybean, corn, sunflower, grapeseed, etc.). They’re hidden in: - mayonnaise - salad dressings - restaurant deep-fryers - protein bars - chips & crackers (even the “zero sugar” ones) These oils: - accumulate in fat cells for up to 18 months (linoleic acid half-life in adipose tissue ~680 days per adipose biopsy studies) - drive non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) via massive omega-6 overload - spike insulin → insulin resistance → more liver fat storage - contain trace hexane (petroleum solvent used in extraction) - are the highest source of inflammatory omega-6 in the modern diet Human trials show that when linoleic acid intake exceeds ~6–8% of calories (common today), it displaces anti-inflammatory omega-3s, increases liver fat accumulation, and worsens NAFLD markers—even when total calories and body weight are controlled (see 2021–2024 reviews in Progress in Lipid Research and Nutrients). Best swaps: tallow, lard, avocado oil, grass-fed butter. Do you still use seed oils daily (cooking, dressings, snacks)? Or have you already switched — and noticed any difference in energy, digestion, or how you feel? Your experience 👇

We can’t understand President Trump’s possible response to Iran in the coming hours or days by looking at Iran alone. Iran is the crime scene but China is the audience. Trump cannot walk away from a massacre of this magnitude, morally or politically. Nor can he walk away when Beijing, Moscow, and Pyongyang are watching to see whether American words are backed by action. This moment isn’t only about Iran. It’s about deterrence about whether the United States still enforces red lines, or whether authoritarian regimes learn that mass repression carries no real cost.

Around 1 billion computer-based jobs are at risk of being replaced by AI. This shift is happening whether people are ready for it or not. The real question isn’t if it happens. It’s who owns the value created by it. Right now, that value flows to a handful of billionaires and Big Tech companies. At Action Model, we believe AI should be owned by the people, not controlled by the few. There’s still a small window for people-owned AI to win. Now is your chance to do something about it.

Jelly Roll asked me one question that I’ll never forget... “Can you help fat people too?” I told him we weren’t going to start with workouts or extremes. We were going to start by walking to the mailbox. Then the next day, one more mailbox. And the next day, another. Watching him commit, show up, and keep promises to himself has been incredible. I’m so proud of all the work he’s done. 💪🏻

Gary Brecka on why fasted high-intensity workouts (black coffee + Orange Theory hammer) often fail women: After 20 min, glycogen's gone—body burns lean muscle for quick energy (3 min process) instead of fat (5+ hours). You rebuild overnight... repeat cycle = no net fat loss. His fix? The viral 30-30-30 (from Tim Ferriss' 4-Hour Body): - 30g protein within 30 min of waking - Then 30 min steady-state cardio (heart rate <135 bpm) Claims: "I've never seen anything strip fat faster." Do it a month—watch the difference. This 1:20 clip breaks down the science of why intensity alone backfires and how a simple morning tweak shifts to fat-burning mode. Tried 30-30-30 (or similar protein-first + low-intensity routine)? What happened to energy/weight/body comp? Stuck to fasted HIIT—did it stall you like he describes? Skeptical—why or why not give it a shot?
