Breakfast is not the most important meal of the day. That line was written by a cereal company. You've been told a lot of things about food. That eating late makes you fat. That you need to detox. That eggs will clog your arteries — or, depending which decade you got the message, that they definitely won't. That sugar makes children hyperactive, that microwaves destroy nutrients, that you should eat six small meals to "keep your metabolism up," and that a celebrity's protocol will fix your inflammation. Almost none of that is true, and some of it is the exact opposite of true. Here's the ...

The Metabolic Brain A research-based reframing of ADHD that puts metabolism, not labels, at the center of attention, focus, and calm. For decades, ADHD has most often been described as an immutable wiring problem: the diagnosis that explains why attention falters and impulsivity persists. The Metabolic Brain offers a different, evidence-grounded perspective: many core symptoms arise when the brain lacks steady, appropriate fuel. What looks like a fixed deficit can, in many cases, be reshaped through nutrition and lifestyle targeted at neuro-metabolic function. In this book Dr. Nico Saga ...

You have read the headlines. Fifteen-hour fasts activate autophagy. Red meat causes cancer. Seed oils are inflammatory. Blue Zone centenarians eat plant-based. Yet nothing in a real body responds to a headline, and the studies underneath each one say something more careful than the summary that pulled you in. That gap between headline and evidence is what happens when a rigorous field, the molecular signaling that dietary choices produce in metabolism, cardiovascular biology, and cellular aging, gets compressed into a paragraph. This book gives you back the mechanism. Inside this book, ...

You bought a gut test kit. Or you're about to. In a couple of weeks a report will land in your inbox with charts, a score, and a list of foods to eat or avoid — and it will feel like science built just for you. This book checks that feeling against the evidence. It follows the whole chain: the swab you mail off, the lab that reads it, the reference group your score gets compared to, and the "eat this, avoid that" advice at the end. At every link it asks the same question — is this step actually proven, or just assumed? The measurement side holds up reasonably well. The leap from a ...

AI won't make you rich. Unless you ask it the question most people are too afraid to ask. THE PROBLEM The average person uses AI like a fancy Google search. "Write me an email." "Fix this paragraph." "Help me with marketing." Garbage in gets you garbage out. THE QUESTION I've been playing a game for 15 years that's made me more money than any tool or tactic I've ever used. I call it "No BS What Would It Take." Take your biggest problem. Now ask: "What would it take to 10x this result?" Not improve it. Not optimize it. 10x it. No censoring. No "that's impossible." Every idea that doesn't ...
