This is all lies. Why is human breast milk extremely high in saturated fats, cholesterol and Uric Acid if it is so bad for us? We evolved millions of years on fats. Something is missing in your understanding of how of our bodies process fats and how essential they are to our development and the maintenance of our bodies. Fats and proteins are the building blocks of life... carbs are just empty calories that are unnecessary and are actually destructive if consumed in excess, which isn't all that much. Our body converts from protein what little carbohydrate needs there are (about 2% of our internal processes only). Where is the science that fats and /or cholesterol causes heart disease? It doesn't exist. Watch this... The Limits of Scientific Evidence and the Ethics of Dietary Guidelines - Peter Attia, MD. "Most of the dietary recommendations made in the United States are not firmly grounded in well-controlled science. The implications for this are profound, especially at a time where two-thirds of Americans are overweight and obesity and its related diseases – diabetes, heart disease, cancer, and Alzheimer’s disease to name a few – are claiming the lives of more people each year. In this presentation, Peter Attia takes a close look at one such pillar of dietary wisdom, the recommendation that Americans minimize their consumption of dietary cholesterol and fat in an effort to reduce heart disease."

You should look into the work of Weston A. Price to see a comparison of societies consuming their traditional diets and those on a "western" diet. We evolved over a few million years eating fat as our main source of fuel, especially in cold climates and in winter months (zero carbs!). This is our natural state and how we thrive. We only introduced mass agriculture and high carb diets (low nutrient density foods - any many with anti-nutrients) about 10,000 years ago. And the results have be disastrous. This is why government and pharma companies recommend a high carb diet. We also need address the dangers of wheat. Here's a Lew Rockwell podcast with "Wheat Belly" author William Davis, MD. William Davis, MD, talks to Lew Rockwell about the government crop that’s making Americans fat and sick. http://www.lewrockwell.com/podcast/372-wheat-belly/ But what are they like on the inside? High carbs causes diabetes, just fyi. All carbohydrates get metabolized as blood glucose, which causes damage internally which is why the body rushes to remove it from the blood stream asap with insulin.... or burn is off asap. This process, over and over, causes much damange and speeds up the aging process and promotes disease.

Personal character is quite revealing.

This post was urgently needed. Good job! I second everything said. It's annoying when Stef talks about obesity and never follows up his comments with the truth on the cure for obesity, which is a ketogenic (high fat, low carb) diet. How can we expect people to not be obese when whenever they do try to lose weight they do it completely wrong because of all the lies they've been indoctrinated with (that cardio is healthy and necessary to lose weight, to avoid fat, etc.). It's all BS! And the issue is not only obesity, but health issues in general. Almost all modern day "diseases" are simply caused by our diet, though you'll never hear that from your doctor. Healthcare is an issue? This is a major cause of it. This is how they feed the system with sick people. For a community that is all about personal freedom, how can the message be complete without addressing the fact that most people are slaves to their blood sugar! Free yourself from the nightmare that is "controlling" blood sugar! Learn the truth about our energy needs (metabolism) and how energy is best supplied to and utilized by the body. You're not free until your a fat burner, which is exactly the way evolution designed us. It's a paradigm shift. Be curious! I'll add that a good resource for this stuff is Mark Sisson (Marksdailyapple.com and his books Primal Blueprint and Primal Connection) and Nora Gedgaudas (Primal Body - Primal Mind: Beyond the Paleo Diet for Total Health and a Longer Life). There are many others, but this a good place to start (especially marksdailyapple.com). See how the truth in health and nutrition changes (saves!) lives. http://www.marksdailyapple.com/i-am-strong-energized-off-all-medications-and-feel-wonderful/#more-45973 http://www.marksdailyapple.com/category/success-story-summaries/#axzz2kqTEm6st

The problem is Statism, not "meat". I've learned from research that the healthiest societies eat (ate) lots of grass fed / wild animals and/ or seafood... and not just the flesh, but organs, bone marrow, blood, etc. (which is the most nutritious). The healthiest societies consider animal fat sacred.... Fat equals survival (natural fat). Grains (carbs (ie sugar) / anti-nutrients, etc.), processed fats (canola), and other processed food, is slave food. Hell, it's not even "food" by definition. It's only food-like and it's designed to make us fat and sick so they can profit off of us. Our brains evolved due to high amounts of omega 3 fatty acids and other nutrients that came from.. wait for it... animals! See Weston A. Price foundation information. See "Primal Body, Primal Mind" by Nora Gedgaudas. See this link for the truth about veganism: http://www.beyondveg.com/

Hi, and welcome! Just something to think about..... Government by definition is the initiation of force. In order for a government to exist, it will have to initiate the use of force to get its funding and to create monopolies on its "services". So, government is a "monopoly on the legal use of force" by definition. If they can't force their subjects to pay for its "services", and if they can't use force to create a monopoly on those "services", then it will not be funded (it won't exist) because people will have better options in the open market where there exists free competition for those same services... Customers will hold the power in having free choice. also, why have a principal called "NAP", if it's not a universal principal without ANY exceptions? If one is not applying a principal universally, then one shouldn't talk about it at all. This is how I understand it, anyway. Cheers!

Hi.. Congrats and welcome! I would probably start with his free books "On Truth" and "Real-time Relationships" and apply that knowledge to your kids. OT is relatively short, and a great starting point. Also, a search for "Philosophical Parenting" (or just "Parenting") in the podcasts series (or youtube) should turn up some good stuff. Enjoy your journey to wisdom! Your kids are lucky to have you as a parent!

He has one called "Effective Public Speaking" in the gold donator section.

I read 6 Pillars several months ago (having been a Rand fan) before I even knew of Stef . Loved it as well. Discovered Stef a few months ago, and I just started reading The Drama of the Gifted Child. I'll check out Toward Truth. Thanks for this review!

Hello! I've heard of biohacking... Dr. Jack Kruse has done some very interesting experiments on himself (and subsequently his patients) http://www.jackkruse.com/
