- That's cold, kid
Dogma is really about fear of death. Paul Chek, holistic health legend
GM 🦁 This is Andrew's Apples, the health email that makes you a jock-poet. Gimme 2 min. Let's go.
😔 That's cold, kid. Getting cold is good for burning calories. According to Dr. Peter Attia, "Cold exposure therapies are forms of short exposure to cold temperatures. Cold showers, ice baths, open water swimming, and even short walks in cold weather [qualify]." Basically, you feel cold so your body produces heat to maintain body temp, which burns calories. Take a peek at Wim Hof aka "The Ice Man" and you'll see what I mean... dude is a winter wizard.
🍩 Lemonheadache. I used to empty boxes of Lemonheads down my gullet as a kid. No effect, and I would carry on, business as usual. Now, 29, if I finish a bag of candy in one sitting, my brain is cooked for hours. It turns out that sweet snacks cause headaches. Same goes for a super carb-heavy meal... it'll send you straight to headache hell. I am of the opinion that it's good to dance with the devil a few times a month, if only to live a little and to learn a new step.
🍊 Friendly low-sugar fruits. If you are going to delete handfuls of fruit, reach for a raspberry, orange, APPLE, kiwi, or coconut. On the other hand, if you are trying to put on some weight (not a bad thing for my beanpoles out there), then opt for a banana, grapes, mango, pineapple, or date. Narrow-minded absolutists will say all fruit is demonic - false, but you also can't just slam them like they're avocados. See the spectrum, friend.
⛵ Motion potion. This tweet below. Anecdotally, my most sedentary 'friends' seem to be both the least questioning and the least happy. Nice alliteration in the last sentence of this tweet.
How do you like them Apples? If you ever need anything, hit reply. Love hearing from readers.
Your friend,
Andrew🍎
