Scientists have found that if you get 8 hours of sleep and are still tired during the day it’s because your soul is cursed and your body doesn’t think you deserve happiness. There is no cure or treatment

I’m a fat man in my 50s and my doctor is recommending weight-loss to reduce my risk of Type II diabetes. I’ve tried to lose weight before and it never works. What else can I do?
—-
Well, if you read my blog, you know that basically everyone who loses weight gains it back within 3-5 years, and fully 70% regain more weight than they lost. Your own lived experience may affirm the truth of these statistics. Â
And it turns out that weight gain is an independent risk factor for the development of Type II diabetes. Oh, and for men your age, weight gain also increases the risk of all-causes mortality.Â
So prescribing weight-loss to improve glucose metabolism seems remarkably short-sighted to me, given that the inevitable weight regain could further harm your health.
But research has shown that some moderate behavior changes can help support metabolic health, within the range that is possible for each individual given our unique genes and life experiences.Â
Eating adequately and regularly throughout the day (i.e., over 2500 to 3500 calories per day; no more than 3 hours between meals/snacks). It is easier for your body to process glucose when it comes regularly. Periods of restriction followed by larger meals can stress the body’s abilities to process glucose. Note, you do not need to restrict food groups or eat less. Just nourish yourself adequately and often.
Moving your body so your breathing is moderately elevated for about 20 minutes per day. This level of activity maximizes absorption of glucose into the muscles. Note that more exercise than this does not bring added benefits. No need to push yourself to extremes. Daily moderate activity is all it takes and you don’t even have to do it all at once.
Sleeping at least 7 hours per night, and most importantly, treating sleep apnea if it exists. About 50% of people with Type II diabetes have sleep apnea (compared to about 20% of the general population) because poor sleep affects glucose metabolism. Treating sleep apnea with CPAP therapy is 100% effective and has no side effects. It also improves glucose metabolism. A man your age and size is very likely to have sleep apnea, so get tested!Â
As I said, none of these behaviors will stop you from developing Type II diabetes if that is the outcome that is determined by your genes and stress history. But they will all improve your glucose metabolism, whether you develop the condition or not, and that is all you can really hope for.
I should add that  a recent longitudinal study revealed that intentional weight loss increased the risk of all causes mortality for fat people with Type II diabetes.Â
You read that right. Middle aged fat people with Type II diabetes who intentionally lost weight in a medically supervised program were more likely to die in the following decade than were middle aged-fat people with Type II diabetes who maintained their weight.
She got the idea for the study while walking with her advisor at Stanford to discuss her thesis topic, and the paper she eventually published in the Journal of Experimental Psychology in 2014 is sharp enough that it should have ended the seated meeting on the day it came out.
She ran 4 experiments on 176 people. Same person tested twice. Once sitting, once walking. The creativity tasks were the standard ones psychologists have used for decades to measure how good a brain is at generating novel useful ideas.
81% of participants in the first experiment produced more creative ideas while walking than while sitting. In the second experiment, 88%. In the third, 100%. Every single person walked into a more creative version of themselves. On average, people generated 60% more novel useful ideas the moment their legs started moving.
The skeptical question is the obvious one. Maybe it was the fresh air. Maybe it was the scenery passing by. Maybe it was the change of environment doing the work, not the walking itself.
Oppezzo killed every one of those explanations with one experimental decision. She put people on a treadmill facing a blank wall. No scenery. No fresh air. No environmental change. Just legs moving in place while staring at white drywall. The 60% boost held.
Then she ran the experiment that closed the case completely. She took participants outside in two conditions. Half of them walked through a Stanford courtyard. The other half were pushed through the exact same courtyard in a wheelchair. Same outdoor stimulation. Same scenery passing at the same speed. The only difference was whether the legs were moving.
The walkers produced dramatically more novel high-quality ideas than the wheelchair group. The outdoors did almost nothing on its own. The walking did everything.
She also tested the opposite kind of thinking. Convergent thinking. The kind where there is one right answer and you have to narrow down to it. Word puzzles where 3 words share a hidden fourth word that connects them. The seated participants did slightly better on these. Walkers got slightly worse.
Walking is not a general intelligence enhancer. It does one specific thing. It opens up the divergent search inside your brain. The part that generates options. The part that produces unexpected connections. The part that takes a problem and finds five ways into it instead of one.
When you need to converge on the single right answer, sit down. When you need to find the answer in the first place, get up.
The mechanism is now well understood. Walking selectively activates what neuroscientists call the default mode network, the system inside your brain that runs when you are not consciously focused on anything. The DMN is where mind-wandering happens. Where memories cross-reference each other. Where ideas that have been sitting in separate folders inside your head finally bump into each other.
When you sit at a desk and force yourself to concentrate, you suppress the DMN. When you walk at a natural pace, the executive part of your brain gets just busy enough handling the walking that the DMN comes online and starts doing the work that focus was blocking.
The most useful finding in the entire paper is the one almost nobody quotes. The boost did not turn off the moment people stopped walking. Participants who walked first and then sat back down stayed elevated. Their next round of seated creativity work was still significantly better than people who had been sitting the whole time. The rest lingered for at least several minutes after the legs stopped moving.
You do not need to do creative work while walking. You need to walk before the creative work. The brain holds the state.
Edited down a long tweet. (x)
Here's the link to the actual paper, in case someone wants to read the whole thing
one of the funnier incidents of me assuming someone knew a meme irl was when a new coworker was talking about some woman who got arrested for tax fraud and I went "God forbid women do anything" and he got scared and thought I was accusing him of being sexist, so he started apologizing and saying how tax fraud isn't even bad, actually.
