- Came across this interesting omnivorous animal this morning on “The High-fat Hep C Diet” blog. One of the more interesting things I’ve come across this year.
- This fence building spider was interesting as well. Is the pole in the middle for tether ball (kidding)?
- Food for thought, er, worms for vitamin C? Interesting idea.
- Is it the yogurt or honey? The brain seems to like lactate. The brain can also store glycogen and it probably converts it to lactate (whether or not that is a good thing I don’t know, but healthy babies have elevated lactate levels besides the ketones, nonetheless it is still not clear whether lactate is an emergency substrate or preferred) However, the main components in different honey are fairly similar, the glucose and fructose part. If two different brands of honey have different effects, then we can more than likely eliminate the sugar component and look at other properties of various kinds of honey. Different kinds of honey have different antimicrobial properties and contaminants. A little hormesis to improve sleep? How does endotoxin impact sleep? (Personally, honey ruins my sleep even in tiny amounts and so does sugar. Sugar also negatively impacts my typing tests.)
Exploring inconvenient paradoxes in biology, psychology, and sociology
Not 100% certain yet but it seems that honey temporarily puts me back to sleep only to wake me up later with a vengeance-super antsy and annoyed that I can’t fall back asleep.
