Food and micronutrient deficiencies, so eating the wrong foods or when you're lacking the right types of foods, that can turn the switch on. Inactivity , sleep deprivation, and specific toxin exposures are all elements that we think about.And if we can address those topics the right way, you can become the first person in the family not to become diabetic.
All right? Straight up, sitting is a new smoking. Inactivity and the health problems from inactivity are almost identical to the health problems from smoking, which is why I want to get going on public health campaignsto encourage activity much in the way we used those same things to get rid of many of the smokers we used to see, because the profiles are almost identical.
he thought he could reach out and somehow this would work. stunned into inactivity . Does that make sense?
And I think that's really the thing that confirmed for me the approach to investing would be characterized by sloth and lethargy, and all of the other sins of inactivity . Because what they described was an investment process which was very long term minded.
It was your mind. So you might think that inactivity would have a picture of a guy kind of lounging out in a chair with a remote control,
but is very very important to you the fan health uh let me segue just to a math equation right here for a moment inactivity plus sudden activity divided by h equals an ouchy and you will need to uh use some ointment
It's like the people in charge don't know what they're doing. And so the Fed pursues this kind of policy of masterly inactivity . They don't see it as their problem.
more selfish. They start They start sort of multiplying without thought of the broader organism. carbohydrates, inactivity , emotional stress. We have poor sleep habits. You
To understand physical activity, you also have to understand inactivity . So the first part of the book is actually about physical inactivity , your resting metabolism, and sitting, and sleeping. And then, the next part of the book is about speed, and strength, and fighting, and sports that most animals are really good at,
It was your mind. Right? Comfort eating and inactivity , and you might think that inactivity -- this guy-- OK.
Let's look at the changes in blood pressure to begin with, and then we'll look at these other changes. So what we see with blood pressure is that it drops in anticipation of inactivity and sleep, gets to a low point early in the morning. And then, in anticipation of wake and activity, in the need to get lots of oxygen and glucose to all the metabolizing tissues, it rises sharply.
So basically, if you want to be skinny move to Colorado is the answer here. But we have this kind of growing issue of the cost of inactivity in our society. And as much as I love all the computer-based everything, it basically is another way where people sit at home and do whatever.
So, it all comes down to what you do to maintain the health and vitality of the mitochondria that reduce the risk. But we are now in a new environment where we have massive amounts of highly processed carbohydrates, inactivity , emotional stress, poor sleep habits, and you chronically damage this organelle. And then if you look at the domestic dog, cancer is the number one killer of the
And what I find completely awesome is that all life, essentially all life on the planet, has evolved a response to these different states. And of course, it's a period in humans of sleep and physical inactivity and a period of consciousness and physical activity. And just by stating this, it becomes so obvious that these different states require a different physiological underpinning.
And so people think, is cancer preventable? You bet. There are now 13 types of cancer which have been linked to inactivity and obesity. And so the health choices we make and the way we encourage people to move makes a huge difference.
And I do so in four parts, because you can't be physically active all day long. To understand physical activity, you also have to understand inactivity . So the first part of the book is actually about physical inactivity , your resting metabolism, and sitting, and sleeping.
And I'm sure you guys are not loss averse as a company. You're thinking about how do we continue to grow the business, not how do we try to protect and defend. The other kind of bias that actually comes into play is something called "omission bias" or "inactivity bias". And so in blackjack, what's interesting is-is people make mistake-so many mistakes when they play blackjack. And they make a lot of mistakes based on inactivity versus activity.
The other kind of bias that actually comes into play is something called "omission bias" or "inactivity bias". And so in blackjack, what's interesting is-is people make mistake-so many mistakes when they play blackjack. And they make a lot of mistakes based on inactivity versus activity. So think about it. You have 15 and the dealer has a 10 up. What do you guys do in that situation?
Get up every 10 minutes or so. But now, today, when we-- people live these lives of physical inactivity , and they don't really have to do much strength, it becomes a mismatch.
And it's also young people. So 85% of the medical costs are under 65, and a large majority of that, about 60%, are related to the effects of inactivity , obesity, heart disease, diabetes, et cetera, so 65% of that spending costs.
of staying in this relationship is easier, right. Maintaining status quo is easier. So when you think about making decisions as we did in blackjack, you have to think about inactivity and activity equally. So as I thought about this whole thing I was reminded- How many of you guys are sports fans. All right, so a handful of you, again.
Like, if I was standing in here with Yao Ming, whose seven feet six inches tall, and we wanted to know why he grew to be seven foot six, we wouldn't care that he was in positive energy balance. We would want to know what regulates growth, right. So we wanna know what regulates growth. So, by this hypothesis, overeating and inactivity are compensatory effects. They're not causes. And the way it was put to me by several different individuals doing animal research, so we don't get fat because we overeat. We overeat because our fat tissue is accumulating excess fat.
