Eat Like a Pig, Run Like a Horse: How Food Fights Hijacked Our Health and the New Science of Exercise. That is a great title, and it’s a great title to the new book by our guest today, Anastacia Marx de Salcedo  Eat Like a Pig, Run Like a Horse takes us on a fascinating journey that weaves together true confessions, mad(ish) scientists, and beguiling animal stories. Marx de Salcedo shows that we need to move beyond our current diet-focused model to a new, dynamic concept of metabolism as regulated by exercise. Suddenly the answer to good health is almost embarrassingly simple. Don’t worry about what you eat. Worry about how much you move…and moving can overcome, even overwhelm the most disgusting conditions.

That of course is our guest today author Anastacia Marx de Salcedo reading from her excellent new book, Eat Like a Pig, Run Like a Horse: How Food Fights Hijacked Our Health and the New Science of Exercise.  Join us as we discuss the book, deworming, and the fact that there is no magic pill. There is no perfect diet. Could it be that our underlying assumption—that what we’re eating is making us fat and sick—is just plain wrong?  


Please join me in welcoming to The Not Old Better Show on radio and podcast, author and science writer Anastacia Marx de Salcedo.

I think it matters whether someone has a good heart.  Elon Musk

We will learn today about what a good heart is…Your heart is a miracle in motion, a marvel of construction unsurpassed by any human-made creation. It beats 100,000 times every day—if you were to live to 100, that would be more than 3 billion beats across your lifespan. Despite decades of effort in labs all over the world, we have not yet been able to replicate the heart’s perfect engineering.

We all take our hearts for granted…but not our guest today. Smithsonian Associate Dr. Sian Harding, a world leader in cardiac research, explores the relationship between emotions and heart function, revealing that the heart not only responds to our emotions but it also creates them as well. Dr. Harding will be appearing at Smithsonian Associates coming up via Zoom, and you’ll find all the details on our website.  

Drawing from her new book The Exquisite Machine, Dr. Harding tells us about the evolutionary forces that have shaped the heart’s response to damage, the astonishing rejuvenating power of stem cells, how we can avoid heart disease, and why it can be so hard to repair a damaged heart. Dr. Harding will also share how cutting-edge technologies are enabling experiments and clinical trials that will lead to new solutions to curing the world’s leading cause of death: heart disease, data, insights, and sheer force of research numbers.

That of course, is our guest today, Smithsonian Associate Dr. Sian Harding reading from her excellent new book, The Exquisite Machine

Please join me in welcoming to The Not Old Better Show Inside Science interview series on radio and podcast author, scientist, and researcher Dr. Sian Harding.

Welcome to the Not Old Better Show, Smithsonian Associates author interview series on radio and podcast.   I’m Paul Vogelzang, and for all of us in The Not Old Better Show audience who love American Revolutionary War history, today’s Smithsonian Associates author interview is just for you.

Thank you so much for listening.

Thomas Jefferson once asserted that "for depth of purpose, zeal, and sagacity, no man in Congress exceeded, if any equaled Sam Adams." John Adams called him "the most elegant writer, the most sagacious politician, and celebrated patriot perhaps of all." But in spite of his celebrated status among America's Founding Fathers as a revolutionary leader, Samuel Adams' life and achievements have been largely overshadowed in the history books.

In a spirited conversation today with Pulitzer Prize-winning author Stacy Schiff who’ll be appearing at Smithsonian Associates with show favorite Rebecca Boggs Roberts, we will examine this often-overlooked US Constitution founder, Samuel Adams, following his transformation from the listless, failing son of a wealthy family into the tireless, silver-tongued revolutionary who rallied the likes of John Hancock and John Adams behind him. Including a wonderful reading by Stacy Schiff, from chapter 2 in her new book:  ‘The Revolutionary: Samuel Adams.’ And ‘A Voice in the Darkness…A Knock on the Door.’  

That, of course, is our guest today, Pulitzer Prize-winning author Stacy Schiff, reading from her new book, ‘The Revolutionary: Samuel Adams.’  Please join me in welcoming to The Not Old Better Show, Smithsonian Associate Stacy Schiff.
