In today´s live call we will talk about the steps we have to take in order to lower our insulin levels. (Check the calendar) And, surprise, surprise!!! One of these steps is to move our ass! Training our muscles is as important as what we eat! So, let´s internalize this and move and train and be healthy! See you later on the live call! And @Kat Oakley and @Stephen Mooney , say HI don´t be shy! So happy to have you here!

Wow, a new study has just landed! It´s a 2026 research that is a total game-changer for how we look at our daily routines. We talk a lot about "brain hacks" and supplements, but it turns out the ultimate cognitive super-weapon might actually be sitting in your kitchen drawer. It's called... a spatula. A massive study recently tracked 11,000 adults, and the results are wild. Cooking at home just once a week can slash your dementia risk by over 25%. 🍳🧑‍🍳🍳🧑‍🍳🍳🧑‍🍳🍳🧑‍🍳🍳🧑‍🍳🍳🧑‍🍳🍳🧑‍🍳🍳🧑‍🍳🍳🧑‍🍳 But here’s the kicker: The worse you are at cooking, the better it is for your brain. 🍳🧑‍🍳🍳🧑‍🍳🍳🧑‍🍳🍳🧑‍🍳🍳🧑‍🍳🍳🧑‍🍳🍳🧑‍🍳🍳🧑‍🍳🍳🧑‍🍳 The researchers found that "novice" cooks (the people who probably burn toast and have to Google how to boil an egg) saw a nearly 70% reduction in risk. Why? Because your brain is working overtime! - Executive Function: Trying not to set the kitchen on fire while timing the pasta. - Working Memory: "Wait, did I already add the salt?" - Sensory Overload: The smells, the textures, the heat - it’s like a HIIT workout for your neurons. For an expert, cooking is "autopilot." For the rest of us, it’s a high-stakes puzzle that keeps the brain young. 💡 💡 💡 💡 💡 💡 💡 💡 💡 💡 💡 💡 💡💡 💡 💡 The "One-Meal" Challenge You don’t need to be Gordon Ramsay. You don't even need to be good. You just need to turn off UberEats and get your hands dirty. 💡 💡 💡 💡 💡 💡 💡 💡 💡 💡 💡 💡 💡 💡 💡 💡 The ROI is insane: 🥚Better nutrition (less processed junk). 🥚Massive "Cognitive Reserve" (shielding your brain from aging). 🥚A sense of accomplishment (even if the chicken is a little dry). 👇 Let’s see 1. What is the ONE dish you can actually cook without a recipe? 2. Or, are you a "Novice" who is currently saving your brain by being terrible at it? Let’s see those "culinary masterpieces" (or disasters) below! 🥘👇

We went on an evening hike today, and my son came around a bend in the path and said he’d found some weird looking mushrooms. I got so excited! Look at these beauties! I’ve been looking for morels in our area for 10 years! I’m try to decide how many I cook and how many I use to spread spore around our yard.
