We just published a critical review of the KETO-CTA study — the first study to examine coronary plaque progression in Lean Mass Hyper-Responders (LMHRs) on a ketogenic diet.
Here’s why we believe the study’s results have been seriously misrepresented.

@eyeslasho The shift was telegraphed. Soon party and state will be indistinguishable, and there will be two sets of rules: rules for the party, rules for everyone else. Autocracy.
@AlpacaAurelius https://t.co/NVc6nbsLCH has the best cocktail of ingredients in the world's first liquid liposomal "multi-vitamin" formulated for longevity. We use 100mg taurine and 375mg of glycine, all liposomal.
A democracy can only last 200 years.
At least, that’s according to 18th-century historian Alexander Tytler.
He claimed democracies always follow a predictable pattern and are doomed to end in servitude…🧵
@mkaeberlein The industry needs scientific and product integrity to thwart the inevitable personal glory and profit fiends. The essence of longevity is mortality, placing it squarely in the sacred scarcity of one's life and those they love. That feral vulnerability must not be exploited.
Sad sign of the times this even needs to be said, but headlines claiming @Harvard researchers developed a chemical approach to reverse aging are not true. Nobody has a drug to reverse aging. @elonmusk and everyone else, please don’t start taking anything based on this nonsense
Just worry about making the best decisions possible, recognizing that no matter what you do, most everyone will think you're doing something-- or many things-- wrong. It is human nature for people to want you to believe their own opinions and to get angry at you if you don't, even when they have no reason to believe that their opinions are good. So, if you're leading well, you shouldn't be surprised if people disagree with you. The important thing is for you to be logical and objective in assessing your probabilities of being right.
It is not illogical or arrogant to believe that you know better than the average person, so long as you are appropriately open-minded. In fact, it is not logical to believe that what the average person thinks is better than what you and the most insightful people around you think, because you have earned your way into your higher-than-average position and you and those insightful people are more informed than the average person. If the opposite were true, then you and the average man shouldn't have your respective jobs. In other words, if you don't have better insights than them, you shouldn't be a leader-- and if you do have better insights than them, don't worry if you are doing unpopular things.
So how should you deal with your people? Your choices are either to ignore them (which will lead to resentment and your ignorance of what they are thinking), blindly do what they want (which wouldn't be a good idea), or encourage them to bring their disagreements to the surface and work through them so openly and reasonably that everyone will recognize the relative merits of your thinking. Have the open disagreement and be happy to either win or lose the thought battles, as long as the best ideas win out. I believe that an idea meritocracy will not only produce better results than other systems but will also ensure more alignment behind appropriate yet unpopular decisions. #principleoftheday
