Sifu Slim Message to Gary Taubes and Dr. Robert Lustig, MD July 2015
Notice the quiet of the early morning. Only one other person walks through the scene.
Taubes and Lustig: These are two experts I really admire. We modernites need their work. The hunter-gatherers and the adept farmers didn’t need their work. Why is that?
The smart and attuned ate less calories, especially simple carbohydrates, moved every day in meaningful ways, lived diurnal lives (up and out pre-sunrise, in and down after dinner), got more downtime (when things were clicking), enjoyed more fulfillment in their daily activities, did not live alone or so frequently in severely dysfunctional dynamics, excelled in cooperation, and were connected to nature.

Mistake at 4:08: I should have said something about how if people don’t eat your food, it becomes compost. It is not actually good news for companies if their food goes bad. It is, however, normal.
Mistake at 6:42: I should have said “how do you get reconnected?”
I should have pronounced Gary’s name correctly, Taubes, as in ouw.
Thanks for watching. I hope you like my books and spoken messages. I am available for webinars and in-person consultations.
Aloha,
Sifu Slim
