We know this. Looking at our species through an evolutionary lens, we tend to talk about our need for social connection as it relates to survival. Our ancestors needed to work in teams to hunt, collect water and firewood, build shelters, rear young, keep watch for predators, and all the other business of staying alive. While that’s undoubtedly true, our need for affiliation runs much deeper than those practical concerns. Our health and well-being quite literally depend on having strong social bonds with others. Even when our survival is assured thanks to safe housing, easy access to clean water and plentiful food, medical care, and financial security, lonely or socially isolated individuals are likely to die sooner. On the flip side, a robust social support network is associated with better physical and mental health outcomes and longer lives. Friends, it turns out, have a profound impact on health and longevity. Of course, it’s not just about the number of years we have but how we spend them, and good friends also make our lives more enjoyable in countless ways.

[Sign Up Now]( [swedish meatballs]( Primal, Paleo, and Gluten-free Swedish Meatballs Swedish meatballs can be a main course, but their small size is ideal for an appetizer, ready to be poked with a toothpick or picked up by hungry fingers. But if you’re not planning a festive smorgasbord in the near future, then just stash these meaty morsels in the fridge for middle of the week snacking. The allspice and nutmeg seasoning in these Swedish meatballs is subtle, but enough to be noticed, and makes the dish taste different from your average meatball. Swedish meatballs are usually made with a blend of beef and pork, which you could certainly do, but here, we’re using grass-fed beef.

They discuss all things Blaze, from their mission to make pizza diet-inclusive, to sourcing real ingredients for their menu, to using a woman-owned gluten-free flour crust company, to even their sell-out keto crusts!

[Listen Now]( [PHCI]( Nature Has the Answer, With Mark Sisson Another new year means another conversation with our favorite health guru and mentor, Mark Sisson. Mark is a man who needs no introduction among our community, but if you are new around here, Mark has worn many hats in his day. He is a retired competitive runner, a New York Times bestselling author, the creator of the Primal Blueprint and Mark’s Daily Apple, and the founder of Primal Kitchen Foods and the Primal Health Coach Institute (just to name a few). Mark always has tons of no-nonsense health wisdom to share, and the nuggets he drops with us today are no exception. During this conversation, we discuss why Mark isn’t the biggest fan of biohacking devices, why ‘how you feel’ should be the biggest indicator of how you’re doing, how nature has the answer, and why the world is ready for health coaches now more than ever. We hope you enjoy our annual touch-base with our absolute favorite guest! Check it out below.
