Friend,
I’ve been neglecting this newsletter.
Not anymore.
If there’s something specific you want me to cover or do more of, plz reply here.
I’ve reworked the format a bit.
I’m going to keep testing new sections and ideas.
I just launched a new e-commerce newsletter and am still co-publishing the Yes2Meat newsletter.
All of them are going to get the attention they deserve. So get on those lists.

⛓️💥 Food
🥗 “I get all the nutrients I need from my food!” The food: X POST
🥛 I didn’t know this about milk (our family buys raw): Seed Oils in Milk: Nearly all milk in the US is sold with synthetic vitamin “packs” added. Vitamin D3 was added to milk to combat rickets in the 1930s. Since then, we know that sunlight exposure produces about 90% of the body’s D3, yet the synthetic vitamins remain. Read more.
🍔 Research suggests that eating carbs slows metabolism while eating protein and fat speeds it up. @bigfatsurprise
🌶️ Too good not to share: Everyone should know how to make the two-ingredient taco filling.
☕ Use coffee the right way, not just anyway, and unlock its hormone-balancing benefits

🤖 AI Corner
I got my wife using GPT.
She now goes there first, before Google… instead of Google.
I first coached her on using it.
Now she gets it.
Because you can talk to it.
Just say what you want and get it.
When you don’t get what you want, tell it!
And keep doing that until you get what you want.
Prompts, agents, and all the other AI buzzwords are noise for most people who don’t realize you can just talk to it, just like you would with any coach, therapist, doctor, or friend.
And 99% of the population isn’t doing this at all. They don’t even know it exists.
🦬 An awesome product I can’t help but recommend
The First 100% GrassFed & Grass Finished Bison Liver Supplement → 🇺🇸 Sourced and Made in America
Tribe Vitamins is home to the highest quality organ supplements we’ve ever seen. Made in the USA from 100% grass-fed, grass-finished American bison.
Check out their current MicroBatches: Elk Velvet Antler, Bison Testicles, & Tallow Balm
A few products I’m enjoying:
They have culinary edition bison tallow (which I have in my cabinet right now) as well as this
This FEMUR Creamer is a unique and incredible product (I’m grabbing one myself as I type this):

🥩 Yes2Meat Newsletter
The Yes2Meat newsletter is published twice a month.
It’s full of animal-based nutrition.
It’s also free.
I co-write this with Miranda, who does a fantastic job of staying current on what’s happening in the nutrition space.
We’re both passionate about promoting animal-based nutrition—and health in general—and this is one (small) vessel for doing that.
We’d love to have you.
Hop on the list below…
🎧 Focus is your path
But what you leave behind to get it is what most founders aren't willing to do....
A lot of really good, sometimes great things.
You can't do everything. You can't even really do two things. Do one.
One Product. One Offer. One channel.
FOCUS ON IT AND ONLY IT UNTIL YOU'RE PRINTING.
Then do it again with the next one.
Alex Hormozi talks about focus for a reason.
Every business he sees struggles with the same problem: too many options, too much complexity, and too few resources.
In today’s complex and unlimited-information world, narrowing your focus is not just smart. It’s essential.
Focus leads to results. It paves the way for growth. Embrace it.
Creatine + electrolytes → Delicious hydration with muscle building and recovery built-in
This took a year, but it’s finally done: Wild Creatine + Electrolytes, delicious hydration with built-in muscle building and recovery.
We haven’t even announced it to our list.
We also dropped 100% Wild Creatine in stick packs, which are travel—and gym-bag-friendly. So, you won't have to lug around huge bottles of creatine everywhere you go.
