One of the aha moments I had was this notion that we... eat way too much food ... We sort of assume that three meals a day plus a snack plus an evening thing is the way that our bodies are set up to receive energy. And the fact is, we don't need to eat as much food as we think we do, and for most part, most of us eat far too much food—far more than we require to thrive.

The science sort of shows that all the good stuff happens to the human body when we're not eating.

It's incredible the amount of energy that we have access to on all of our bodies. It's incredible the amount of energy that can be generated by your own stored body fat and the fact that you do not have to eat.

It may be that these industrial seed oils are actually more problematic than, say, sugar for most people.

I've been a big fan of the barefoot movement and minimalist shoes since day one. I feel like people lose touch with not just the Earth but the haptic sense of how their body moves when they wear cushioned shoes.

I try to have 8 to 8.5 hours of sleep. If I get 9, I do not apologize for that. I'm a big fan of sleep and the restorative nature of sleep.

The cool thing about business is you only need one home run in your life to make everything you've done worth doing.

The only way to build arches—not the only way but the best way—is to walk barefoot as much as you can.
