What I actually eat (circa Q4 2011)
Note to readers: This post was written in December of 2011. PLEASE do not ask me why I eat ‘this’…
The keto buffet
This week, I’m doing a one-week fast. I try to do this once a quarter.
#211 – AMA #36: Fruits & vegetables—everything you need to know
“There’s also a very significant cultural and social component to this thing as well. So I think that’s where the tribalism comes from around nutrition.” —Peter Attia
#45 – AMA #4: sleep, jet lag protocol, autophagy, metformin, and more
“Every day in the human body, some 10 billion cells die and are replaced by new cells.” —Nick Lane
#153 – AMA #21: Deep dive into olive oil, high-intensity exercise, book update, and more
“Think of diets like drugs…no one would ever believe that there is one drug that should be used by everyone for everything.” —Peter Attia
#50 – AMA #5: calcium scores, Centenarian Decathlon™, exercise, muscle glycogen, keto, and more
“We’re really talking a completely new model, which is actually forcing your way to become a centenarian rather than just sort of gliding your way into it and therefore, I think it’s going to require much more deliberate attention around what your mind and body are doing at that point and time.” — Peter Attia
#92 – AMA #12: Strategies for longevity (which don’t require a doctor)
“If you are interested in longevity, if you are interested in playing with your great grandkids, you want to prioritize muscle mass. Never in the history of civilization has a 90 year old said, ‘I wish I had less muscle.’” —Peter Attia
The Nothingburger and my favorite interview
Interesting three weeks with the “Nothingburger” experiment: one week of fasting sandwiched between two weeks of nutritional ketosis.

“My perspective has shifted as any scientist that’s following data should… When new data comes out, you have to reassess things.” —Rhonda Patrick
