RIP Art de Vany

You wouldn't be reading this if not for Art. In 2007, on my own initiative, I began getting a grip on my health by cleaning up my diet and hitting the gym. But it was the way I was doing the gym that caught the interest of a reader who commented, "you sound like Art de Vany," and that changed my world.

My first post about him, May, 2007, so just shy of 20 years ago. He was nearly 70 at the time.

Art de Vany. A quick scan of my archives shows that I either mentioned Art or wrote a title post about him 141 times over the years.

He had penned an essay of about 26 pages called "Evolutionary Fitness." It was foundational for me, and I think that because of that, I got popular in the evolutionary-Paleo world, and to some small extent, I still am when I want to be.

Art has always held a soft spot in my heart because of that, and also, he tended to keep it simple. Basics. He never engaged in long, mind-numbing posts about supplement minutiae. Basically whole food, brief episodic everything.

I had the pleasure of meeting him in person over a few days at a conference he sponsored in Vegas. Also, the pleasure of talking over martinis in the bar.

I dislike long, flowery eulogies. He was a good dude. Gone at 88 on the 13th of January, 2026. If you hit 80 in decent health, you win at life.

@bengreenfield The redirects are working now.

https://t.co/QcUqoHgd82

This was throwing broken link errors a few days ago.

It now redirects correctly. Thanks!

Hey @bengreenfield, thousands of links to bengreenfieldfitness are now broken because you changed domains.

PLEASE set up 301-redirects.
All this inbound traffic will be lost.

Occasionally I think Google will win the AI race because of their compute dominance. Then I try to get an API key to use any of their products and I remember

Down goes TypePad.
Removing all links now.

[J.Y. @jy]

TypePad has been closed.

They could not even get the images working on the closing final message.

Now @Quora is returning a 403 Forbidden on every link I have to them from my blog—same nonsense as Stack Overflow.

Message received. I am removing every link.

I reverse engineered the San Francisco parking ticket system. I can see every ticket seconds after it's written

So I made a website. Find My Friends? AVOID THE PARKING COPS.

@LindenJohan No. This wasn't the first time his site went down for days or weeks. Once I remove links, I don't restore - unless is absolutely essential for the post to make sense. Often I keep the Archive link from the Wayback machine in place.

Another fitness and nutrition site goes dark.

Leangains will be missed.

Archiving sites is not rocket science.

[🥔 MAS @CriticalMAS]

@LindenJohan Leangains is back online.
I already replaced all the links to his site.
Oh well.

Book review: The End of Craving by @MarkSchatzker

- Overall, recommend if you're into obesity/nutrition
- Concise and IMO accurate overview of what we've tried (low-fat, low-carb, low-sugar, CICO, ..) and how they've all largely failed
- Investigates why fortification & enrichment of base foods with vitamins/minerals might be causing obesity
- Explains how "fake foods" (=ultra-processed foods) can confuse our nutrient sensing, tricking our bodies into going into famine mode and overeating
- Great explanation of the 2-signal model of reward, which elegantly explains many reward system phenomena like gambling & food addiction
- Unfortunately, it's a bit light on solutions (eat chocolates with your eyes closed?)
- A hilariously mystical last chapter that made the engineer in me mad😅
