  • Chickens and many other birds appear to bob their heads because their eyes are fixed in their sockets, so they can’t fix their eyes on a point while moving, but instead have to keep their head still. What looks like bobbing is the bird pushing its head forward and keeping it completely still for a moment while its body catches up. Without keeping its head still, it wouldn’t be able to see much of anything very effectively, prey or predator.

    T rex might have been able to move its eyes, in which case it probably wouldn’t have bobbed its head.









  • If you think you have a deficiency, explain why to a doctor. A blood test to know for sure is simple. A doctor will know what kind of supplementation would best serve you, and there may be an underlying reason that can be treated to fix it.

    I didn’t say “no one should take supplements ever,” I said most people who take supplements are doing so unnecessarily, and you should do so under the supervision of a physician.


  • Are you finding yourself deficient in vitamin K based on some symptom you’re experiencing? Vitamin K is in soybeans, cashews, broccoli, chicken, grapes, blueberries, and a bunch of oils, including soybean, olive, and canola oils, and the list goes on and on. Vitamin K deficiency in adults is extremely rare.

    Like every other vitamin and mineral, eating average healthy (and even lots of unhealthy) foods will meet your RDA.


  • Vitamin and mineral supplements. You only need supplementation if you have a specific deficiency, and deficiencies are not extremely common. Most people who take supplements do not need them and are just peeing out all the extra things they’re putting in their bodies while shelling out ridiculous prices to “natural remedy” companies.

    If you think you have a deficiency, explain why to a doctor. A blood test to know for sure is simple. A doctor will know what kind of supplementation would best serve you, and there may be an underlying reason that can be treated to fix it. Also eat some god damn vegetables you fat little piggy
