Just don’t stress so much. Take the time to enjoy your hobbies or just relax. Your body needs it.
Also, find an extra 4 hours every day to exercise, meditate, and get a full night’s sleep. But also make sure to socialize with friends and family. Oh, and eat right. And clean up a bit, your environment is a big factor.
If you ignore the fad diets, it’s not that bad. Science can change on specific points over time but it’s been pretty uncontroversial for many decades that a diet of fresh foods with plenty of fruits and vegetables and a moderate intake of meat and fish, with a minimum of sugar and junk food, is good for you.
It’s just that occasionally something comes along that we really want to be true, like wine is healthy or all-meat is actually good because the cavemen did it. When the finding is something we want to be true, we’ll blow a minor, flawed study all out of proportion and keep talking about it years after it’s debunked.
Heresay, but last I heard the reason red wine being good came about is due to most of the people who had red wine every night were better off financially and data was skewed from a class perspective. Basically having money is good for your health.
The “French Paradox” also played into this. We love the idea that some group of special people have had all this figured out for centuries and if we just follow their traditional ways, we’ll live forever. But if they happen to exhibit longevity, it’s more often genetics or other factors besides something we desperately want to believe, like booze is healthy. I wonder if the French Paradox was amplified by the oldest person in the world being, for years, a French woman who smoked like a chimney.
There was a little back and forth between different studies on that which is the way science is supposed to work, but every twist and turn was dragged out and amplified by the fact that we WANT to believe 2 glasses of wine a day is good for us. That kind of finding gets spread far and wide. And when other scientists try to replicate the studies and find they are exaggerated, we give them a hard time for flip flopping.
High protein is good but you only need a moderate amount if you don’t work out, sugar is harmless if you aren’t a diabetic or it’s causing you to eat excess calories, try to keep a healthy balance of fatty acids, eat enough fiber but not too much, vegetables aren’t necessary for a healthy diet but certainly help.
If you are tracking your food you’re already doing better than the vast majority of the population
People dismiss it often, but I do think all of us are born predisposed to view the world a certain way and how we respond. As I said to another person, I have anendophasia, which means I have little to no internal monologue. I don’t really get stressed out because I don’t really get intrusive thoughts. I could sleep fairly easily. With any criticisms I get, I just forget and it doesn’t linger in my mind, or I just learn and move on.
The downside of having anendophasia, though, is that I have been insensitive before, because I wrongly assumed that people don’t have constant intrusive thoughts. It was irrational for me as to why have these thoughts without bearing in reality. Only recently I realise many, if not most, people have constant internal monologue that is pain in the butt. Nothing for me to do but understand. It’s the state of mind all along.
I also experience little to no internal dialog, and have no issues sleeping. But I’m still stressed. Usually I’m unaware, but its more of a feeling than a thought.

But don’t stress!
Also, what foods are right will change dozens of times over your lifetime, but myeah, just do your best.

Is red wine still good for you. I’m sure that was a thing at one point.

That’s funny in a really dark way

Just gotta filter out all the bullshit
CICO > everything else

Yep folks. Filter out the bullshit. 🙄👆
cico is good for weight loss but not overall health
Paying attention to your “cico” will solve a lot of overall health issues
Got it. Sugar cube sandwich it is.
that bread is just empty gluten
Hey this isn’t the YMCA
Gluten is a protein though, so you should breadmaxx for ultra gainz
lol this sounds like mockery cause everything you said is impossible to achieve for most of us

Only about 20% of people have constant internal monologue. It’s more likely to have zero internal monologue than an uncontrollable one.
This indicates to me that the internal monologuers are potentially describing uncontrolled anxiety.
I also experience little to no internal dialog, and have no issues sleeping. But I’m still stressed. Usually I’m unaware, but its more of a feeling than a thought.
I will tell my boss and the managers of other teams all of this, I’m sure they’ll understand.
also, you could stand to increase your income by a few digits. if you clench hard enough it should manifest
