The boys behind ASAP Science (are awesome)

I trust science. I do not always trust how science is interpreted. It's the reason there is so much confusion and misinformation about health, fitness, and - especially - weight loss.

So, when
anyone tackles the pursuit of truth in a balanced, researched, unbiased and amusing way, I pay attention. Especially when they are also amazing people in real life. I got to catch up with Mitch and Greg at camp this past weekend, the duo behind ASAP Science. What can I say? They're smart, and I trust their mad research skillz. They're not bad with a white board and dry-erase markers, either.

I've included some of their videos on this blog already, like
the one about sleep. And when I try to get science-y myself, to figure out or explain things like Ghrelin and Stress, I think about how they might pare it down to the simplest explanation and infuse it with humour. Because, let's face it, to tackle topics like morning wood, why babies are so cute, or whether silent farts are worse takes a sense of creative whimsy.

But the ones I'm most interested in are related to health and fitness. There are plenty. The effects of water. Sleep. Stress. Stretching. Their series of videos made for CBC during the winter Olympics are all about sports, competition, and athletes. Totally fitness-related!

Whether you're ready to unleash your inner science geek, want to waste time on YouTube but are sick of videos about cats, or just want to understand answers to burning questions about daily life, Greg and Mitch have done a great job of making science entertaining and accessible. Check out all the cool videos they've made on the ASAP Science channel.

    Whose blog, now?

    From the gut, about the gut, trying to listen to what my gut tells me.

    I'm just a girl, fighting the same weight battle as much of the population. Lost 100 lbs, working on the rest, trying to find balance between health, fitness, and vanity. I'm also a librarian who wants to share credible information and reliable resources, in addition to my own musings and reflections, what I call "my writing from the gut."
