The lunch that costs under five dollars and delivers more nutrients than most restaurant meals. Canned wild sardines in olive oil served on sliced cucumber with capers, red onion, lemon, and sea salt. Per can: - Over 2g of combined EPA and DHA omega-3s - Complete protein with all essential amino acids - Calcium from the edible bones - Vitamin D, B12, selenium, and CoQ10 - Minimal mercury because sardines sit at the bottom of the food chain

6/8 — THE PROTOCOL Strength train 2-4x weekly. Compound movements that load the hips and spine — the sites that actually break. Squats, deadlifts, hip thrusts, overhead press, rows. Train hard enough that the final reps are genuinely challenging. Jump. 10-20 daily — hops, skips, jumping jacks, rope. One of the most proven osteogenic stimuli that exists. Skip only if your joints or physician say otherwise. Protein at every meal. Bone is roughly half protein by volume. Most older adults are underfed on protein at exactly the moment they need more. Calcium 1,000-1,200mg daily, food first. Dairy, leafy greens, sardines with bones, fortified foods. Spread it out — absorption is better in smaller doses. Vitamin D. Test it. Calcium is nearly useless without it. Take D3 with a fatty meal. Magnesium and K2. Magnesium activates vitamin D. K2 helps direct calcium into bone rather than arteries — which, as a cardiologist, I care about a great deal.

In 2011, Joao Pereira de Souza, a 71-year-old fisherman from an island near Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, found a penguin covered in oil and struggling to survive. He rescued the bird, carefully cleaned its feathers, and nursed it back to health before setting it free. Months later, Joao was amazed when the penguin, named Dindim, returned to visit him. The loyal penguin traveled thousands of miles but always found his way back. Now, Dindim swims 5,000 miles each year from Argentina and Chile to spend eight months with Joao before returning to his breeding grounds. Joao treats Dindim like family, feeding him fresh sardines, giving him showers, and even carrying him in his arms. A wildlife biologist who studied their unique bond said the penguin sees Joao as part of his family. While experts usually discourage strong human-animal connections, authorities made an exception for this incredible friendship. Joao feels blessed that Dindim chooses him over thousands of other penguins. Their heartwarming bond is a rare example of loyalty, love, and the powerful connection between humans and wildlife.

Depression, cancer, heart disease, obesity, diabetes, dementia, allergies, asthma, chronic fatigue, autoimmune disease, and more are all inflammatory diseases. That begs the question, what is causing all this rampant inflammation? It’s mostly our food—too many inflammatory foods and not enough anti-inflammatory foods. While many foods can trigger inflammation, food is also the most powerful source of anti-inflammatory compounds. Plant-based foods contain over 25,000+ phytochemicals, many of which are potent anti-inflammatories. The polyphenols in colorful plant foods are some of the best inflammation-fighting compounds nature has to offer! Extra virgin olive oil, for example, contains oleocanthal, which activates the same anti-inflammatory receptors as ibuprofen—without the side effects. Spices are anti-inflammatory powerhouses too, including: - Turmeric - Ginger - Rosemary Cooking your meat with spices can neutralize inflammation, while omega-3 fats from wild fish, seafood, and certain nuts and seeds also fight inflammation. Medicinal mushrooms such as shiitake, maitake, reishi, and chaga contain powerful immune-boosting and anti-cancer compounds called polysaccharides. Nutrient-dense foods rich in vitamin C, zinc, selenium, and vitamin D can further reduce inflammation. For example: - Guavas & parsley (vitamin C) - Pumpkin seeds & oysters (zinc) - Brazil nuts & sardines (selenium) - Porcini mushrooms & herring (vitamin D) The best thing you can do for your health? Cut out or cut down on inflammatory foods and fill your plate with anti-inflammatory ones!

5 minute GC chart at end off swing...I am a big believer in the time frame justification system. Time frames are, after all, totally arbitrary. (imho), For me, its about how does the market act at certain levels. Is it making its high or low first...tell me further refinements on my colors if you are a GUY and COLOR blind. My tradesheet plan for Gold coming in this morning was to Exit longs on further rally (Friday was a big range expansion bar up, but look for a post to buy back at least partial. If I do not Write DOWN Exit, the problem is, it feels so good being long, I drop the ball and don't exit. Nothing lovelier than seing bog old open profits. You want to have that screen shot in your head forever. But as the old saying goes, Joseph Penso de la Vega wrote "profits are like eels, how easily they slip away" in his 1688 book Confusion de Confusiones.(from my Trading Sardines book)
