  • Blind Insights - Our New Diets

    In this episode, with a strong dose of 'do your own research', David and Tim share their new eating habits and dietary practices. Four books, namely The Glucose Revolution, Super Gut, Drop Acid, and Nature Wants Us To Be Fat, are paving the way for the latest research in diets and human health. Having read the books, Tim and David share their experiences with implementing some of their learnings.


    Of note; we are not nutritionists and our conversation about diet does not amount to advice. If you are interested in what we are saying please read the books we mentioned and speak to your doctor or dietician about them before making any significant changes to your eating habits.

    Ever wonder what makes a mind? Philosophers have asked this question for millennia and don't have much concrete evidence to show for it. Tim asks David for his current thoughts and it turns out we now know a lot more about our brains.
