GUEST POST from Don: Handicap-Friendly Home

HANDICAP-FRIENDLY HOME Life ain’t fair.  At some point you will probably be on crutches or unable to climb stairs due to injury, surgery, or age-related issues.  It may be temporary.  One source declared that more than 1 in 4 people in the U.S. has a disability.  Of those, about 7 million people use mobility assistance devices.  Still, how long can …

GUEST POST from Don – WEED

WEED I know some are very protective of this habit.  In fact, several family and friends are defensive about their personal uses.  They see it as a marvelous alternative to both alcohol and tobacco.  Having read some of what they and others have written the reader could get the impression that it is a victimless and harmless activity.  However, …

How we Eat & Why We Eat Like We Do

July, 2022 UPDATE! (see original article below) At this time Pete has increased his beef consumption somewhat, but sticks with 100% grass-fed, organic beef. He needs the iron, and the dark leafies mess with his INR. I am following my own “mix” of 3 plans: ketovore, IF, and OMaD. I have increased my animal-based foods …
