Why you should try a 36 hour fast
I lost 2 kg immediately. Yes, it’s water weight. Yes, I felt hungry towards the evening. But most importantly – it felt good. I used to do this more often, back in Bangkok when I worked with a bunch of bros and it was their daily/weekly/monthly routine to fast. It almost felt as good as…

Extending life with sirtuins, NMN, resveratrol and metformin
I think everyone arrives at a stage past 30 when they realize life is quite precious, longevity is not a given and that we need to take care of our bodies & health (and for the Asians – also take care of your dad/mom/grandmom/grandfather and the rest of the extended family’s health). So I’ve been watching (YouTube that…

The 6 most important graphs you will ever see
Extracted from Steven Bartlett on Instagram. Steven runs his own media company, is known for creating a hoax around a football player that became worldwide news. Just to prove the power of social media – and how we, plain plebs, are so easily fooled by the (social) media. His IG is good – I always…

No sleep = 1 pound per week
Unlike most of the podcasts, Dr Mark Hyman records 10-minutes podcasts and videos with bite-sized content on health. In this episode, 3 doctors discuss how stress influences our behaviour and decision making. We all know it. But this serves as just another reminder 🔁.

Dr Mark Hyman: Sleep deprivation = 1 pound increase per week

A path to optimal quality of life: meaningful relationships
I’ve been unknowingly advocating this already. But after listening to Jay Shetty’s latest podcast with Robert Waldinger, I was relieved to objectively confirm that time with friends is definitely time well invested. Waldinger, a Harvard professor, studied 724 men for 75 years and concluded that of course smoking is bad for health and exercise is good but what matters and contribute most to the overall…

Lists: to follow/to healthy/to invest/to music
I love lists. I love VLOOKUP. I love rating (I have a rating list of e-ve-ry-thing). I love stationery. I think it’s an Asian Girl thing. Or maybe it’s just me 🤷🏻♀️. But here are some lists I think that might be useful/fun for you too: To IG follow For some genuine + positive+energy For female entrepreneurial inspo To…

Alkaline to combat cancerous environments
I’ve been listening to some Tony Robbins lately. The first time I learnt about “alkaline foods” was when it was coined by the “I’m-not-your-guru” guru – he was eating salmon salads for lunch every day that gave him mercury poisoning. He had to rebalance his diet afterwards and now swears by alkaline foods. The opposite of alkaline are acidic food groups. These are foods that harbour pathogens, unhealthy bacteria,…

Moonwalking and memorizing names instead of the snack corner
Am I the only one who introduces herself to 20 people at an event and afterwards will recall only one thing: the location of the snacks? Thát plus not being able to recall faces is bad. It’s really bad. Edgar still makes fun of the fact I have introduced myself 3 times to the same friend of his over…

Bone Broth: anti-ageing’s best-kept secret
This week I introduce to you: bone broth. Some might know I had this EXTRA EXTRA colleague (Darren) who was the most extreme fitboy I ever witnessed (more fit than our regular Nike colleagues.. yeah brah). Next to Muay Thai, basketball and lifting, he was also super intense into his keto and carnivore diets and religiously drank his bone broth. This guy looked like…
