Your knowledge is so right on and also pairs with a doctor that I worked with for years that taught me business and shared this same information. I have many professional friends in this field that have stated the same.💓
I like Katy, & think she's a bright researcher, but would advise people to read her blog or watch her demonstrate exercises rather than listen to most of her public lectures. This could have been a ~10min talk.

Old science and statistics, by adding electro-magnetics of the biological cell to the understanding of movement will make it absolutely clear why everything in this universe have to move.
All animals try to "conserve energy." No animal arbitrarily moves around to burn off calories (except humans). The body doesn't know what a calorie is. It has no calorie sensors or detectors. The calorie is a human construct and a product of the industrial revolution. We move so as to navigate our environment. If we create an environment that is not conducive to movement, we will move less. The patterns are set as soon as the child can walk.
Yes, I agree but Yoga is a practice that is so diverse and covers so many different movements for each individual that I simply wonder why its not mentioned. I feel its a bit like the trend in mindfulness and meditation practices not being credited to where they originated. The practices known thousands of years ago in yoga, the sister science of ayurveda, are all about uniting mind, body and spirit. I loved the lecture by Katie, it helped when I was studying wellness therapies.
Because yoga, as it is practiced by most in the western world fits more into "exercise." I have been to dozens of yoga classes in various states, the quality of instruction while well intentioned, leaves a ton out. Katie is referring to actually daily movement such as just chewing your food, squatting while you're eating or watching TV. Yoga is NOT required for any of this.
Random question to anyone who's read Move your Dna. I'm kinda confused about chapter 10 when she talks about squatting. She says not to squat until you can do it properly I believe otherwise you are reinforcing old poor squatting technique. She also defines any movement involving going to the floor a squat. Perhaps I understood this wrong but that leaves me scratching my head because for my job I do have to do alot of squatting. So what am I supposed to do instead? Thanks
you need to take some time to understand exactly what she is talking about. When most people hear the word "squat" they think of what one might see in a gym. Someone with a barbell on their back and then bending their legs to squat down. This however is not really a natural squatting movement. Look how small children squat to pick a flower. It looks very different than what you see in the gym. And because of our lifestyles that natural squat is quickly eroded as we grow. By 10 a kid will usually have some trouble getting into that position. They've lost a range of motion, their muscles have shortened, etc. So you need to follow her exercises in that chapter to start restoring what you've lost, otherwise you will be squatting improperly and causing yourself further problems.
Hi Crunchy: She has a bunch of books & videos, her youtube channel is nutritious movement, & her website is www.nutritiousmovement.com. She is probably on FB.
Is there any concern that more movement, causes the joints to wear out sooner? Is there any evidence for example, that marathon runners develop knee issues at earlier age than non-runners? Or are there a techniques, posture / squats, to INCREASE the life of the joints? Peter Attia has some great videos on movement and the perfect squat! Katy mentions that tech saves movement/time, but would like to have heard heard her thoughts on health tech.. Whole body Vibration plates, Electrical Muscle Stimulation / E-Stim? Or wearing Blood Flow Restriction bands around the arms/legs? Or even the use of pharmaceuticals (rapamycin, metformin, resveratrol, etc) that mimic exercise, possibly activating movement genes (PPAR alpha, gamma, etc)? Although Keith Baar, would probably say if it doesn't load the tendon, then these techniques may help cardio, but not muscular/skeletal. On Katy's podcast (#104 Death Moves, #99 Ihi Heke) she recommends sleeping on the floor in order to move/adjust more while sleeping.. however, it would be interesting to see if actual sleep quality (as measured via an EEG) is affected. Also, isn't it often said that if you're a side-sleeper, a hard bed can cause shoulder arthritis? I like the idea of practicing falling, something that is often taught in jiu-jutsu. There was a great '40+ Fitness' podcast with Carol Clements on the importance of practicing balance as you get older! In terms of shoes, any thoughts on the Rocker-Bottom MBT footware? Katy warns against sandals without a heel strap since they cause feet muscles to grip, but why wouldn't that be a good thing? Vibram, Vivobarefoot Primus Trek / RA II, Xero Z-Trek Minimalist Sandal, Merrell Vapor Glove 3/Men's Luna Leather Sneaker, Plae, Lems, Altra , ZemGear, etc Finally, regarding the importance of chewing to increase blood flow to the brain, perhaps if doing time-restricted feeding (23:1) or fasting for a few days, then would masticating with gum be the same (Krinos Mastic Gum)?
I've not listen to the full talk at this point or even read your full content beyond a quick scan. But I a few quick thoughts. First, is inflammation and its causes. Some address it with NSAIDs but this is a grave mistake as these drugs are said to poison or inhibit the chondrocytes, the cells that build cartilage while suppressing inflammation and slowing the degradation of the existing cartilage. So they both hinder and help but I suspect in the final analysis they hinder health and function. Second, exercise helps as does altering the types of fat used in your diet. Avoid processed corn and soy oils as they are damaged and high in omega 6 fatty acids. Even animal fat have issues as the animals tissue reflect the high corn and soy fatty profile of their diets. I favor both some fish fats with some really saturated fats and some mono fats. Sat fats are the fats to use with heat, IMO, I use coconut fat for that. For canned fish, I much prefer fish in olive oil. For fish oil, wild caught fish or refined fish oil as my choices not natural unrefined oil due to contamination issues ( yes, I see the problems and contradictions). For seed and nut oils, only unextracted fats in the context of their original seed or nut as these will have all their natural antioxidants do I see a reasonable choices. As to shoes, I favor the natural form, low heel running shoes as ideal. That said many of my running shoes have been the very cheapest shoes with the very best insoles inserted into the shoes. I am a big believer in intermittent fasting and high intensity training. Though for some reason, I often prefer long distance running at the 5 to 7 mile range every second or third day. As to bed and bedding, I've certainly experimented but that would make this comment far too long. Finally, I mentioned exercise, vital. It helps even really old persons. You can change the balance fat cells to muscle cells with exercise. This is a big thing. I get the youtube link to the vid you should listen to.
@@jeffjohnson5908 While there maybe more effective exercises than running; running for me is a "want" or a favored activity. Do I need to run?

Movement alone would be unlikely to be enough. The other factors to get right are: stress, nutrition, fasting, sleep. Essentially, the farther we go away from how our ancestors lived, the shorter the health span.
I have just started listening to he but a tour of her home would not work for many people.

Both of my parents did not move as much as I do and I'm 56. They also both smoked. That said, I do see where she is going with this and overall, I think her conclusions are correct..just saying.
Agriculture reduced the need for movement? Is she joking? Farming is one of the most physically intensive ways of life there is, and was even more so back before tractors and trucks came along.
Jan Cerny you are missing the point. She means that with mass agriculture by big corporates, we don’t work in that space anymore but simply get food from Walmart, etc thus not keeping our bodies moving / active in agriculture (i.e. subsistence farming).
Todays farming is nothing compared to farming 100 years ago. Plowing or sowing 10 hours a day in a massive airconditioned john deere is not physically active farming
Except that before most people had to move, after farming, only a few farmhands needed to move, the rest were free to pursue philosophy, politics and maths (and many other things).
She’s talking about the transition from hunting/gathering to agriculture. Hunting/gathering, especially if it was nomadic was probably much more physically demanding than growing food close to home.
Grating voice and so repetitive when making the “ differences” between movement and quality of movement makes waiting for the point (which is movement and physical activity) hard to sustain.

Each point she makes is clear and obvious. I understand her.
I wonder if her emphasis on movement in her own life is what has helped make her so quick witted.
