You'll find that based on 3.7 - 4.2 that most li-ion batteries are indeed charged from 0-100 and not 20-80 as you previously claimed. Manufacturers have no reason to overprovision consumer products that are made to be replaced in 5 years or so.

I think it’s accurate to say that meat is a luxury in the sense that we collectively are paying environmental and ethical costs for the farming industry.

I'd like to see us factor in the bio-availability of nutrients from both plant and animal sources when considering the costs, as well.

Thank you for posting this counterpoint, I'm somewhat skeptical too. The article you linked does not explain some the observations in Dr Pollack's laboratory, so I wonder if there's not more to this whole thing.

I'm really curious about every aspect of this so I also want to read Change Your Diet, Change Your Mind by Dr Georgia Ede, and it's also because I think this may be interesting to some of my friends. It's nice to think that it must surely not just be coincidence that we are doing this reading not just for ourselves but for the people close to us too!

I have both Why We Get Sick and How Not to Get Sick on my backlog also, but I think I'll read The Fourth Phase of Water for a change of pace!

The sheer amount of time I've saved eating only one meal a day alone is incredible and of great personal value.

Thank you for this, the picture was really bothering me.

I don't think we'd lose anything of value even if we banned all influencers from speaking online on social media on any topic, so I can see why China's done this.

I found Mike the Vegan's demeanour and voice repulsive, and couldn't sit through the video. What a horrible human being.

Experts think that

Ah, alright, so no science then.
