Here’s what you can expect from me
These days, almost every time I post something on Instagram, I lose followers. Sometimes, a hundred at a time.
I imagine that’s because the kind of ideas I’m sharing don’t match what those particular people wanted and expected from me.
Most people think of me as the guy who co-founded the Whole30 program, who created the…

Over the last few weeks, I’ve made my case for recalibrating our circadian rhythms and placing much more emphasis and value on Sleep in my 4 Keys to Living Better.
Sleep. Eat. Move. Connect.
Imagine a rhythmical circle instead of a linear prescription. Don’t get hung up on the order of things.

Please Don’t “Just Move More” – 4 Keys to Living Better
Whenever I write or speak about movement, fitness, exercise, etc., I want to rebel against the common refrain, “just move more.”

In many ways, what we eat represents both the religion and politics of human health,…

Why Sleep Matters – 4 Keys to Living Better
Sleep. Eat. Move. Connect.
I know.
Sleep comes first — Eat comes second. And that looks different than It Starts with Food (a book that my name is on the cover of).
But putting sleep first on a list does not mean that the others aren’t important.
Diet is vital for everyone. Thousands have even improved their sleep simply…
