Hola Martes!? Hello Tuesday.? First let me start off by thanking everyone that either sent me a card in the mail, posted on my wall, or came to my Birthday party hosted by my awesome friends Kenzie and Joy.? It truly is a great feeling knowing how much people care about you.?
Now, for the people that see me on a daily basis, I apologize, but I am going to talk about the Ancestral Health Symposium?again.?
The AHS was recorded and put up on Vimeo for FREE!!! That?s right, so even the people like myself that couldn?t spend half a grand to go are able to watch it.? A lot of the presenters talked about some pretty heavy science stuff but one presentation was quick and easy to follow.? Seth Roberts presentation on improving brain function with Flax oil, butter, and pork fat was very informative, and it was only twenty minutes.? He talks about his trouble sleeping, desire to improve brain function, as well something that I had not truly heard about but, improving gum health with Flax oil too.??

After Dr. Roberts speaks Tucker Max gives a presentation?WAIT?? What???!!! Tucker Max, the guy from I hope they serve Beer in Hell?? Yup, turns out, Tucker knows Seth Roberts and emailed him to tell him about a topic that was missing at the AHS.? No not Gut health, nutrition, exercise, anthropology, dentistry, and mood disorders???BUT VIOLENCE.
Now I must admit this presentation was very fun because you have some of the top PhDs and MDs in the world talking about their expertise and ancestral health, and then you have TM swearing like a sailor.? BUT, and this is a huge but, I believe the message or idea that Tucker Max brings up is an important one.? No he is not advocating violence but what he does advocate is learning MMA or Mixed Martial Arts.? He talks about cops trained in combat vs. untrained combat are less likely to use force.? He anecdotally talks about his training in MMA has made him a less violent person.? Max correctly brings up that almost every martial art has an accompanying philosophy to it which is usually one of ?the quiet warrior,? to NOT use ones strength to hurt another.? Finally I?d like to bring up a point that others have mentioned before which I think is interesting.? In society today, how threatened do you feel?? I?d say we probably feel pretty safe with our lives, etc.? Most of us have some form of shelter and are not starving.? And because of this what do we do?? We seek out ways to push our bodies to near death.?? I can only imagine but, if our own immortality was brought to our consciousness by being brought to our daily grind, would we not choose life??

What do you think??
