Unifying Nutrition: Osteoporosis and Atherosclerosis May be Linked: Vitamin K2

November 30, 2011

This goes way back and is one of the themes that set me up strong for the Paleo / Primal journey right off. I didn’t even blog about it for months, because it seemed too obvious. I had to read up, and I had to think. And then I did my first post about it,…

The 21 Convention: My Presentation to 20-Somethings

November 26, 2011

This may not be for everyone, and it’s pretty long, but take a look if you like. I was asked to speak at this year’s convention in Orlando, Florida, in July and the video has just come out on YouTube. I believe it’ll be promoted on The 21 Convention site around December 8 or so,…

Holiday Odds & Ends & PGP Food Pics

November 22, 2011

Be careful out there. I’m signed up to do the mashed potatoes & giblet gravy for the Big Meal on Thursday. I’ll also do some green beans with bacon. Will I be able to resist a dab of taters & gravy? We’ll see. Note: PGP = “Pretty Good paleo.” The geeks get it. In a…

I Have a Book Contract

November 21, 2011

Last week I received a curious email that I almost disregarded, because it came right out and said they wanted to publish a book with me. Then I looked more closely. And then I clicked over to a link. Then I Googled to see what they’re up to and found all sorts of recent, relevant…

Wild Elk Steaks Sous Vide

November 21, 2011

A few days back I mentioned getting some wild elk meat from my brother’s recent hunting trip in Montana. Saturday evening we had some friends over and I’d decided to set up the Sous Vide Supreme for the first time in a while. My taste for this method of cooking goes back just over two…

Sunday Rock: “God Shuffled His Feet”

November 20, 2011

…And it’s really more Sunday Ballad than rock, but since almost all rock bands do ballads, we’ll give it a pass. This was inspired by a Twitter follower with whom I just had an exchange, @DailySuicide. For about 20 years or so I have liked entertaining the concept: “Outcompeting God.” The idea is, when 1st…

The Perfect Burger, Pure Paleo and an Elk Kill

November 17, 2011

The other night I happened to click into the Food Network just as a show called Restaurant Impossible was beginning; and I was kinda hooked right away. I liked chef Robert Irvine right off the bat: his compassion for struggling restaurant entrepreneurs, combined with his tough love and deep understanding of what makes a restaurant work….

Erectile Dysfunction, Sunday Football…and, “are you healthy enough for sexual activity?”

November 16, 2011

Subject brewing all football season, but has come to a head — har har — only last Sunday. Even then, I chewed on it for a few days. I’m not always sure I want to jump into a post that’s sure to make some flinch. …But first, a little background. I’m a fair weather friend….

Full Circle: Meat Eaters Really Are Selfish

November 12, 2011

The news didn’t shock or surprise me when it came out last August. The Dutch Daily News: “Meat brings out the worst in people. This is what psychologists of the Radboud University Nijmegen and Tilburg University concluded from varrious studies on the psychological significance of meat. Thinking of meat makes people less socially and in…

Thai Coconut Milk & Ginger Soup with Shrimp & Mushrroms

November 12, 2011

First of all, I have no idea what it’s actually called in Thai, because there are so many variations on the Tom, Dom, Con, Gai, Yam, Yum, Kha axis of Thai soup that I simply don’t know. But luckily, you don’t have to in order to make one of the most exotically tasting things ever….

30-Day Clean Paleo Challenge Update 3

November 11, 2011

Here’s where we got this ball rolling. So, beginning day five, here are my impressions so far. It’s beginning to feel a lot more like how it felt as I was losing weight over the first year & a half, which is to say, very good; bulletproof. Marked reduction in nasal congestion. Zero bouts of…

Tiny Dick Update

November 10, 2011

It’s How You Use It …And if you got the ‘short’ end of the stick, har, har…you simply need to learn how to keep it steady indefinitely; and marshall your allies; i.e., tongue & fingers. Others use the law to make up for “shortcomings.” Like Joseph I. Marchese. If he even has a dick, it must…

November 9, 2011

Alternatively titled: The Bright Future vs. The Decrepit Past of Stale Promises Promises Well, first the good news. Do you have a measly five and a half minutes to be inspired by very bright young scientist entrepreneurs — modern hunter-gatherers — who don’t seem to want to pick your pockets via Obama & Co?

30-Day Clean Paleo Challenge Update 1

November 8, 2011

The biggest surprise about my post last Saturday announcing my latest insanity was how many people signed up to go insane right along with me. I’ve lost count, but there must be close to a couple dozen from the comments. I suppose the only valid conclusion one can draw is that this won’t hurt very…

Self-Experiment Time: Squeaky Clean Paleo for 30 Days

November 5, 2011

Lately I’ve been considering a simple fact: in all the time since I began my personal journey beginning in the spring of 2007 — that resulted in 60 pounds of fat loss, massive reduction in blood pressure, cessation of prescription medications, fabulous lean muscle and strength gains and a host of other lifestyle improvements –…

Of The Beast and The Bi-Cameral Mind, Part I

November 3, 2011

You’re at Free the Animal, but what kind of animal are you? You’re less strong, less fast, and less a tree prodigy than almost all other primates. And yet, you rule the Earth. Importantly. …After all, do you have envy of wandering into the forest, trying to strike up a conversation? Of course not, because…

About FreeTheAnimal

I'm Richard Nikoley. Free The Animal began in 2003 and as of 2020, has 5,000 posts and 120,000 comments from readers. I blog what I wish...from lifestyle to philosophy, politics, social antagonism, adventure travel, nomad living, location and time independent—"while you sleep"— income, and food. I intended to travel the world "homeless" but the Covid-19 panic-demic squashed that. I've become an American expat living in rural Thailand where I've built a home. I celebrate the audacity and hubris to live by your own exclusive authority and take your own chances. [Read more...]
