in exercise physiology from Spain, with whom I am collaborating), Ben Balzer from Australia (a physician and one of the best minds
in evolutionary medicine), Robb Wolf from the US (a biochemist and the best «biohackers I know»), Óscar Picazo and Fernando Mata from Spain (close friends who are working with me at NutriScience), David Furman from Argentina (a top immunologist and expert
in chronic inflammation working at Stanford University, with whom I am collaborating), Stephan Guyenet from the US (one of my main references
in the obesity field), Lynda Frassetto and Anthony Sebastian (both nephrologists at the University of California San Francisco and experts
in acid - base balance), Michael Crawford from the UK (a world renowned expert

in Nigeria found that calcium and potassium levels in human milk varied by a factor of 2, magnesium and copper by a factor of 3, chloride levels by a factor of 4, iron and selenium by almost 5, iodine and sodium by almost 7, and zinc, which is vital to the nervous system, by over 7.15 In other words, some mothers had seven times more zinc in their milk than other

While protein levels
in human milk remain constant at about 11 percent under various conditions, levels of fat and lactose — both essential for the development of the nervous
system — vary widely.22 Even the various anti-inflammatory and antibacterial compounds
in a mother's

Young puppies, (like
human babies) are most susceptible to infection, particularly because the natural immunity provided
