Satisfying my own curiosity by tackling genuine medical mysteries from first principles. Long-form articles on spine biomechanics, photobiology, and prevention — informed by the work of Dr. Stuart McGill and Dr. Jack Kruse.
Three experimentally verified mechanisms explain why your subcutaneous fat is a light-harvesting organ — and why the “obesity paradox” isn’t a paradox at all.
Read →How sun-produced vitamin D3 is locally converted into a micro-tumor seeking destroyer that oral supplements cannot replicate.
Read →Without morning sunlight, ghrelin secretion drifts into the evening — which is why you eat more in winter and it’s not about willpower.
Read →The world’s foremost spine biomechanist says he performs one deep squat per day. One. No weight. Full range of motion. Why nobody in fitness is talking about this.
Read →Frozen shoulder is an evolutionary mismatch disease — the price we pay for walking upright and then sitting at desks instead of swinging from branches.
Read →How Dr. Stuart McGill's biomechanics-based protocols achieve pain resolution comparable to surgical outcomes — without the scalpel, the scar tissue, or the risk.
