Eating less protein may slow aging, according to a review of 350+ studies.

A major analysis published in Cell Press Blue challenges the high-protein craze. Researchers found that reducing protein intake can improve metabolic health, reduce inflammation, and potentially slow biological aging, even when total calories stay the same.

"I don’t just think antidepressants are overprescribed, I’m not convinced they’re useful at all. Antidepressants don’t rectify a chemical imbalance or any other biological process, as people were led to believe; they numb emotions"

"The question is, is this useful, and how harmful are they?" 👇

Steve Jobs was worth over $200 million at 25. He paid his daughter $385 a month.

Her mother cleaned houses and went on welfare. The county had to sue him to pay it back.

In the video below, his daughter Lisa talks about growing up with him.

Jobs was 23 when she was born. He helped pick her name. Then he denied she was his.

A DNA test said he was the father. He told Time magazine that 28% of men in America could be.

The same year, Apple went public. He became one of the richest young men in the country.

He named a computer after her: the Apple Lisa. For years, he refused to admit it.

One day her mother was on the phone with him, sobbing, begging for money. Lisa, a little girl, took the phone and said: “Just give her some money.” Then she hung up.

Another time, her mother asked him for a house. He said yes. Then he bought one for himself.

At 14 she moved in with him. His condition: she couldn’t see her mother for six months.

Years later, he was dying of cancer. She sat by his bed.

“The thing he kept on saying is, ‘I owe you one, and I’m so sorry.’”

Did she forgive him?

“I think not at the time.”

“In many ways, yes.”

When her memoir came out, his widow and his sister released a statement: her story “differs dramatically from our memories.”

The case for Jobs: he was young, he came back, and he tried to make it right before he died.

The case for Lisa: a billionaire’s daughter shouldn’t have grown up on welfare.

He named a computer after her. He wouldn’t say she was his. On his deathbed, he said, “I owe you one.”

Was “I’m sorry” enough, or did it come 30 years too late?

Look at what the standard mental health paradigm does to young people:

Take “anxiety” as a mental health problem. If a teenager is displaying this emotion we say they have a mental health problem.

But if you’re in an environment that’s conditioning reflexive obedience, you’re supposed to feel anxious. That anxiety tells you you’re facing the threat of self erasure.

I’ve had a few people tell me off recently for my use of language. They say, there is no such thing as severe or profound autism. There is only autism, and then co-occurring disabilities such as intellectual disabilities. Autism itself can’t be severe.

I used to agree with this, but I’ve changed my mind. My mind has been changed by talking to many families of children who are (they would say) severely or profoundly autistic. They say that they clearly see in their children how autistic features like lack of early shared attention, or lack of social interest in babyhood, have led to their severe disabilities now. They say that their learning disabilities are part of their autism, not something separate to them.

And I also reflected on my own experience as a diagnostician and clinician, which also clearly shows that what we define as autism can certainly vary in severity. Just think about repetitive behaviour and restricted interests - this can range from a passionate engagement with horses or trains, to severe self-injurious head-banging. Both could fit that diagnostic criteria, but one clearly has a more serious impact on a person, and is more disabling. It makes no sense to say they are of the same magnitude.

So that’s why I will use severely or profoundly autistic when it is appropriate to do so. Because I have listened to the people most affected by this, and they have told me that it’s important to them that the language reflects their experience.

The people who are being given an autism diagnosis have changed. This is a massive study, looking at people in Sweden and the UK diagnosed with autism in adulthood. What they find, apart from a huge increase in the number of people being diagnosed (and many more women being diagnosed), is that the people themselves are different.

Previously, adults who received an autism diagnosis were more likely to have a prior history of epilepsy, intellectual disability or psychotic disorders. Now, they are more likely to have a history of anxiety, depression, ADHD or other symptoms of emotional distress.

This is in line with what clinicians have been saying for a while. Mental health problems, which were previously seen as psychological or emotional in origin, are increasingly being seen as neurodevelopmental, and therefore due to brain differences. Autism is the lens through which our culture is seeing distress.

This has serious implications, because autism is seen as untreatable and lifelong. Mental health problems such as anxiety or depression are seen as treatable. Recovery is possible. By bringing so many more people under the autistic umbrella, we tell them thatthey are wired this way. That’s a powerful explanation because it can bring relief and self-acceptance - but it can also bring hopelessness about change.

We aren’t discovering more of the original type of autism which was there all along, we have changed what autism means. The important question is, what is the impact of diagnosing so many more people, and it is helping them to better live the lives they want?
