Hot Flashes During Your Period? It's not Just a Menopause Symptom
You're Not Imagining It — Hot Flashes Can Happen Around Your Period If you've ever felt a sudden, intense wave of heat surge through your body right before or during your period — you know the feeling. Your face flushes, your neck prickles, you're drenched in sweat, and then it passes just as quickly as it came. And if you're nowhere near menopause, you've probably been told one of two things: "That's not a hot flash," or "That's not possible at your age." Both of those responses are wrong.

Culture As a Technology: How Ritual, Music, and Food Co-Engineered the Modern Man
Final Synthesis: How Did We Get Here? The popular account of human progress has a hidden assumption buried in it — that the arrow was always pointing this way. That given enough time, the right mutations would accumulate, the right inventions would emerge, and something like now was always going to happen. This is not a scientific claim. It is a story we tell to make the present feel earned. The actual science points elsewhere. The Capacity for Culture Was Not Inevitable Start at the beginning. The ability to learn culturally at all — to absorb behaviors from others, accumulate...
PureClean Protein - A Collagen-Rich Muscle Protein Matrix by PureClean Performance
Most proteins are engineered for one purpose: muscle growth signaling. PureClean Protein is different. It is a collagen-dominant beef isolate protein matrix — not pure collagen, not pure muscle isolate — but a structurally complete, connective-tissue–rich protein that reflects the true architecture of the animal. And that distinction matters. What Is a Collagen-Rich Muscle Protein Matrix? Beef protein exists in two primary structural domains: Muscle fiber proteins(rich in leucine, lysine, and traditional anabolic amino acids) or Connective tissue proteins (collagen matrix)(rich in glycine, proline, hydroxyproline, arginine) Most commercial proteins isolate one side. For example: Whey → muscle signalingCollagen peptides →...
Is a Low Resting Heart Rate Always a Sign of Great Health?
Hi PCP Family, A lot of people assume that a low resting heart rate automatically means: strong cardiovascular fitness a calm nervous system good recovery high vitality And sometimes, it does. But not always. A low resting heart rate simply tells you how often the heart is beating at rest.That’s it. It does not tell you: how adaptable the nervous system is how well the body handles stress how quickly it recovers whether the system is flexible or rigid Two people can both have a resting heart rate of 45 and be in very different physiological states. One may be...
