COCAINE AND HEROIN ARE JEALOUS OF SUGAR
Cocaine and heroin are jealous of sugar. It sounds outrageous, but stay with me. Most people understand the destruction of illegal substances, yet we consume massive amounts of processed sugar every day without a second thought. It doesn’t hide in dark alleyways, it sits openly at children's birthday parties and on supermarket shelves. Is its social acceptance exactly what makes it so dangerous? Dive into the neuroscience, the gut-brain axis, and an ancient strategy from Homer's Odyssey to reclaim control over your body and mind.

FARMERSTRENGTH® - Full Moon Fast and the Importance of Fasting on a Full Moon: 2026 Fast Schedule
At Envision Festival 2024 in Costa Rica, I encountered a transformative experience that reshaped my approach to health, fitness, and connection with nature. During a powerful talk by the Bri-Bri tribe, I was reminded that Earth, with its natural abundance, offers us all we need—if we honor its cycles. They spoke of living in tune with the land and respecting its rhythms, sparking a call to realign with these natural forces.
Shortly after, I joined a seminar led by Violetta Anestopoulou, a holistic health expert, who discussed the powerful synergy of fasting with the cycles of the moon, particularly during the full moon. Her insights highlighted how the gravitational pull influences our bodies much like it does the tides. The idea of a Full Moon Fast took root—a monthly ritual combining mental resilience, physical strength, and spiritual grounding, and a path toward restoring balance in our fast-paced world.
