"There is no fine thing since Adam's fall but needs much laboring." Adam's Curse is written by Patrick B. Whalen — Marine veteran, educator, and founder of Iliad Athletics. These essays move between poetry, physical formation, leadership, and education.

By Nina Teicholz

Why it's hard to get trustworthy advice on nutrition & health

Nina Teicholz and Gary Taubes; you won't find better information on nutrition. I've be following these two for 10 years; they study and report on "the science" of nutrition, which frankly, is suspect in most cases.
