Take a moment to explore the relationship between cancer and sugar. Throw the words "cancer" and "sugar" into Google and study the results. Otto Warburg won the Nobel Prize in Medicine in 1931 (and a second Nobel Prize 1944) for his work demonstrating that cancer cells arise from normal cells by shifting from an aerobic metabolism to an anaerobic fermentation metabolism fueled by a voracious appetite for sugar. It is our suspicion that hyperinsulinism will ultimately be shown to be a two-headed hydra with cancer and atherosclerotic disease being two resultant diseases states accelerated by if not arising from a chronic and acute elevation of blood sugar. The evidence for this is fairly compelling yet largely ignored.

Nick Nibler of CrossFit North became the most recent member of the Muscle-up Club this weekend after the CrossFit Challenge. Any of you living or visiting in the Pacific northwest would be well advised to make a trip to CrossFit North in Seattle to meet Nick ( Marine turned cop) and his partner Dave Werner (former SEAL). Their expertise, facility, and nurturing manner are the finest expression of the CrossFit ideal.
