Kale and Coffee: A Renegade's Guide To Health, Happiness, And Longevity
by Kevin GianniInternet celebrity Kevin Gianni was intent on finding the keys to perfect wellness and sharing them with the 10 million viewers of his YouTube show, Renegade Health. So he and his wife bought a 36-foot, bio-fueled RV – dubbed "the Kale Whale" – and spent two and a half years crisscrossing the continent, talking to experts and ordinary folks about what works and what doesn’t when it comes to a healthy life. Gianni drank wheatgrass shots, gave up sugar, said goodbye to coffee, and used himself as a guinea pig to uncover the truths and myths behind every nutrition plan said to guarantee good health. As he cycled through "healthy" diets – vegetarian, vegan, raw foods, and more – he got sicker and sicker. Finally, he hit bottom and had to give up healthy eating to save his life.Kale and Coffee is the often hilarious, picaresque tale of how Gianni went from skinny, raw-food vegan faddist to bloated, out of shape omnivore before finding the middle way to an imperfectly healthy and (more) balanced life. The journey takes him from the Peruvian Andes to salt flats in Mexico to a pig farm and butcher shop near his northern California home. Along the way, he has his brain scanned and his pantry tested for toxic metals, does an all-water fast, runs the grueling Tough Mudder endurance race, and obsesses on the secrets of the world’s longest-lived people.With the humor and practical wisdom that have delighted millions, Gianni shows you how to sidestep the health hype, diet fads, and weight-loss promises littering the path to wellness. Drawing on his own experience and the advice of trusted experts, he guides you in finding your own personal plan for optimal nutrition and fitness.Includes the Kale and Coffee 21-Day Jumpstart

Kanker kopen - De lelijke waarheid achter onze schoonheidsproducten
by Vivienne Harris L. N.Als consumenten hebben we het recht te weten waar onze producten vandaan komen, hoe ze worden gemaakt en of het voordeel van het bezitten van dat product groter is of niet. En omdat we producten kopen met ons zuurverdiende geld, hebben we het recht om de best mogelijke kwaliteit te krijgen. Bedrijven hebben echter geen morele verplichtingen jegens consumenten en dit is een feit dat ze gemakkelijk kunnen uitbuiten. De cosmetische industrie is niet anders, en in dit boek leer je uit de eerste hand hoe bedreigend de chemicaliën die ze gebruiken in onze producten zijn. Je leert hoe je de shampoo & conditioner gebruikt, de lipgloss die je niet zonder kunt, de lotion die je op je lichaam aanbrengt om je huid te hydrateren tot de tandpasta die je dagelijks gebruikt, allemaal vervuild zijn met giftige ingrediënten die oorspronkelijk ontworpen om alleen industriële apparatuur schoon te maken of om uw versnellingsbak te smeren. De gezondheidsimpact van deze ingrediënten die zo mooi zijn verpakt, is echt verschrikkelijk. De mascara, deodorant, gezichtsmasker, nagellak, lippenbalsem, concealer en douchegel die u gebruikt, bevatten meestal chemicaliën die in verband zijn gebracht met kanker en geboorteafwijkingen en die zijn geclassificeerd als schadelijk voor het vrouwelijke voortplantingsstelsel. Dus als consumenten moeten we onszelf onderwijzen om onze gezondheid en welzijn te beschermen. Het is niet genoeg voor deze miljardenindustrie om ons geld te nemen, ze willen ook dat de meesten van ons ziek worden, en waar mogelijk de rest doden. Vrouwen zijn krachtige consumenten en als ze de dodelijke (maar subtiele) wapens herkennen die deze industrie tegen hen gebruikt, zullen ze in staat zijn a) hun gezondheid te beschermen en b) gezonde en gereguleerde producten te eisen. Dit boek zal je de geheimen tonen die deze industrie veel geld verbergt om te verbergen, en de diepte van dit ernstige en dringende probleem.
Kant and Post-Tractarian Wittgenstein: Transcendentalism, Idealism, Illusion
by Bernhard RitterThis book suggests that to know how Wittgenstein’s post-Tractarian philosophy could have developed from the work of Kant is to know how they relate to each other. The development from the latter to the former is invoked heuristically as a means of interpretation, rather than a historical process or direct influence of Kant on Wittgenstein. Ritter provides a detailed treatment of transcendentalism, idealism, and the concept of illusion in Kant’s and Wittgenstein’s criticism of metaphysics. Notably, it is through the conceptions of transcendentalism and idealism that Wittgenstein’s philosophy can be viewed as a transformation of Kantianism. This transformation involves a deflationary conception of transcendental idealism along with the abandonment of both the idea that there can be a priori 'conditions of possibility' logically detachable from what they condition, and the appeal to an original ‘constitution’ of experience. The closeness of Kant and post-Tractarian Wittgenstein does not exist between their arguments or the views they upheld, but rather in their affiliation against forms of transcendental realism and empirical idealism. Ritter skilfully challenges several dominant views on the relationship of Kant and Wittgenstein, especially concerning the cogency of Wittgenstein-inspired criticism focusing on the role of language in the first Critique, and Kant's alleged commitment to a representationalist conception of empirical intuition.
Kant's Inferentialism: The Case Against Hume (Routledge Studies in Eighteenth-Century Philosophy)
by David LandyKant’s Inferentialism draws on a wide range of sources to present a reading of Kant’s theory of mental representation as a direct response to the challenges issued by Hume in A Treatise of Human Nature. Kant rejects the conclusions that Hume draws on the grounds that these are predicated on Hume’s theory of mental representation, which Kant refutes by presenting objections to Hume’s treatment of representations of complex states of affairs and the nature of judgment. In its place, Kant combines an account of concepts as rules of inference with a detailed account of perception and of the self as the locus of conceptual norms to form a complete theory of human experience as an essentially rule-governed enterprise aimed at producing a representation of the world as a system of objects necessarily connected to one another via causal laws. This interpretation of the historical dialectic enriches our understanding of both Hume and Kant and brings to bear Kant’s insights into mental representation on contemporary debates in philosophy of mind. Kant’s version of inferentialism is both resistant to objections to contemporary accounts that cast these as forms of linguistic idealism, and serves as a remedy to misplaced Humean scientism about representation.
Kant's Theory of the Self (Routledge Studies in Eighteenth-Century Philosophy)
by Arthur MelnickThe self for Kant is something real, and yet is neither appearance nor thing in itself, but rather has some third status. Appearances for Kant arise in space and time where these are respectively forms of outer and inner attending (intuition). Melnick explains the "third status" by identifying the self with intellectual action that does not arise in the progression of attending (and so is not appearance), but accompanies and unifies inner attending. As so accompanying, it progresses with that attending and is therefore temporal--not a thing in itself. According to Melnick, the distinction between the self or the subject and its thoughts is a distinction wholly within intellectual action; only such a non-entitative view of the self is consistent with Kant’s transcendental idealism. As Melnick demonstrates in this volume, this conception of the self clarifies all of Kant’s main discussions of this issue in the Transcendental Deduction and the Paralogisms of Pure Reason.
Kant, Wittgenstein, and the Performativity of Thought
by Aloisia MoserThis book explores the idea that there is a certain performativity of thought connecting Kant’s Critique of Pure Reason and Wittgenstein’s Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus. On this view, we make judgments and use propositions because we presuppose that our thinking is about something, and that our propositions have sense. Kant’s requirement of an a priori connection between intuitions and concepts is akin to Wittgenstein’s idea of the general propositional form as sharing a form with the world. Aloisia Moser argues that Kant speaks about acts of the mind, not about static categories. Furthermore, she elucidates the Tractatus’ logical form as a projection method that turns into a so-called ‘zero method’, whereby propositions are merely the scaffolding of the world. In so doing, Moser connects Kantian reflective judgment to Wittgensteinian rule-following. She thereby presents an account of performativity centering neither on theories nor methods, but on the application enacting them in the first place.

Karahan Tepe: Civilization of the Anunnaki and the Cosmic Origins of the Serpent of Eden
by Andrew Collins• Examines the intricate carvings, chambers, and structures, revealing the site&’s acoustical properties, shamanic symbolism, and astronomical alignments• Reveals how Karahan Tepe was used by shamans to connect with the Milky Way&’s Galactic bulge in its role as the head of the cosmic serpent• Explains how the site&’s builders, who created the world&’s first post ice age civilization, are remembered in myth and legend as the Watchers and Nephilim of Jewish religious tradition and as the Anunnaki gods of Sumerian mythologyConsidered the most important archaeological discovery of the 21st century, Karahan Tepe is an enormous complex of stone structures in southeastern Turkey covering an estimated ten acres. Built more than 11,000 years ago, Karahan Tepe contains some of the oldest monumental architecture anywhere on Earth, including human and animal statues, ubiquitous snake carvings, T-shaped pillars, and interconnecting underground enclosures with stone columns carved directly from the bedrock.Chronicling his explorations of Karahan Tepe, Andrew Collins presents the first in-depth investigation of the discoveries at the site: who built it, its astronomical alignments, and its cosmological connections. He examines the intricate carvings and architectural features, including a newly discovered statue of a giant human figure. Explaining how the site functioned as a shamanic oracle center, Collins shows how its rock-cut structures were used to connect with the Milky Way&’s Galactic Bulge and stars of Scorpius in their role as the head and active spirit of a perceived cosmic serpent. He traces this serpent motif throughout history, identifying it with the biblical serpent of Eden, the kundalini of Vedic tradition, and the black snake of the Yezidis. He demonstrates how the belief in the existence of the Milky Way serpent among the inhabitants of Karahan Tepe went on to influence the foundation of the Gnostic Ophite mysteries suppressed by the Christian Church. He also shows how the founders of Karahan Tepe were recalled in Hebrew myth and legend as the Watchers and Nephilim and in Sumerian and Babylonian mythology as the Anunnaki.Sharing a wealth of evidence, Collins confirms that Karahan Tepe and its sister site of Göbekli Tepe belonged to the world&’s first post–Ice Age civilization, which today bears the enigmatic name of Taş Tepeler.
