Some bits and pieces of The 4-Hour Body by Timothy Ferriss
‘’People will think that because genes play a role in something, they determine everything. We see, again and again, people saying, “It’s all genetic. I can’t do anything about it.” That’s nonsense. To say that something has a genetic component does not make it unchangeable.’’
“Cellulite is fat. Nothing special, neither a disease nor a unique female problem without solutions. It can be removed.’’
‘’Marketers have conditioned women to believe that they need specific programs and diets “for women.” This is an example of capitalism at its worst: creating false need and confusion.’’
‘’But what is this all-important “Harajuku Moment”? It’s an epiphany that turns a nice-to-have into a must-have. There is no point in getting started until it happens.’’
‘’Tracking anything is better than tracking nothing.’’
‘’Simple: logic fails. If you were to summarize the last 100 years of behavioral psychology in two words, that would be the takeaway.’’
‘’Think of them as insurance against the weaknesses of human nature—your weaknesses, my weaknesses, our weaknesses: 1. Make it conscious. 2. Make it a game. 3. Make it competitive. 4. Make it small and temporary.’’
‘’If you are hungry, you’re not eating enough protein and legumes at each meal.’’
‘’If you could only do one movement for the rest of your life, do the kettlebell swing.’’
‘’The crucial principle is to lift heavy but not hard.’’
“Based on all of the literature I’ve reviewed, the phytoestrogens in soy are dangerous for adults and, to a greater extent, children, even when used in moderation. Studies have demonstrated that just 30 grams of soy per day (about two tablespoons) for 90 days can disrupt thyroid function, and that’s in Japanese subjects. The Swiss Federal Health Service equated 100 milligrams of isoflavones (phytoestrogens) to a single birth control pill in terms of estrogenic impact. How many birth control pills are you inadvertently eating each day? FOOD TOTAL ISOFLAVONES(IN 100 G SERVING) Instant soy beverage 109.51 mg Raw soybeans (Japanese) 118.51 mg (in less than half a cup) Fried tofu 48.35 mg (7–8 small pieces) Tempeh 43.52 mg (in less than two-thirds of a cup) Common infant soy formula.’’
“So, how can you do it without soy? Answer: Either extensive whole foods, which requires prep time, or powdered protein, which requires budget. The whole-food options will be covered in the case studies, though you’ll see some soy products creep in. For supplementation, the most consistently recommended protein powders among vegan athletes are: Sun Warrior Chocolate Brown Rice Protein (rice protein) Pure Advantage Pea Protein Isolate (pea protein) Nitro Fusion Plant Fusion (rice, pea, and artichoke protein) I have also confirmed each of these as non-vomit-inducing when blended with 1–2 tablespoons of almond butter and either ice water, almond milk, or coconut milk.”
“ In the course of researching and interviewing for this book, I encountered dozens of former vegan women and would-be mothers who had miscarriage after miscarriage until they reintroduced animal products into their diets, after which they were able to become pregnant in a matter of weeks.”
