A friend of mine brought this back from Scotland and it's turned into my bedtime reading. I read one of the stories/legends/accounts before going to sleep. I have to say, it's a fun little read. And oh my - read about Sawney Bean the other night. Why have I never heard of this? 😅 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sawney_...

Of antioxidants:

"It's a massive racket [...] The reason the notion of oxidation and ageing hangs around is because it is perpetuated by people making money out of it.
"Some studies have even suggested that antioxidant supplements can be harmful. [...] ...antioxidant supplementation did not lower the incidence of many age-associated diseases but, in some cases, increased the risk of death."

"America is near the bottom for virtually every measure of medical well-being—for chronic disease, depression, drug abuse, homicide, teenage pregnancies, HIV prevalence. Even sufferers of cystic fibrosis live ten years longer in Canada than in the United States.

This book was published in 2019. In the section on disease:
" 'The fact is,' he says, 'we are really no better prepared for a bad outbreak today than we were when Spanish flu killed tens of millions of people [...] The reason we haven't had another experience like that isn't because we have been especially vigilant. It's because we have been lucky.' "
Later that year, COVID was first detected.

"One curious fact is that animals that are hibernating also have periods of sleep. It comes as a surprise to most of us, but hibernation and sleep are not the same thing at all. [...] a hibernating animal needs to get a few hours of conventional sleep each day within the larger unconsciousness. "

"There's a really easy way to do food shopping in supermarkets," he says. "Just stick to the outside aisles. The aisles in between are almost entirely filled with processed foods. If you stick to the outside, you will automatically have a healthier diet."

“…the full cost of building a new human being, using the obliging Benedict Cumberbatch as a template would be a very precise $151,578.46 [USD]. Labor and sales tax would, of course, boost costs further. You would probably be lucky to get a take-home Benedict Cumberbatch for much under $300,000…” 🤣
