Dr. Rhonda Patrick (@foundmyfitness) has 258 posts in the library. Between them they drew 246,468 likes; the typical one reaches 567, and the biggest reached 22,239. Most of that work is about Science and Health. This is what the posts themselves say about how they write — not a profile, a pattern.
What they write about
- Science — 114 of 258 posts (44%)
- Health — 110 of 258 posts (43%)
Two or three subjects rather than one: a reader who follows for the first gets the others, which is how a niche account becomes a general one.
How they open
- 76% of posts open with an observation
- 15% of posts open with a number
- 7% of posts open with a question
Half or more of their posts open the same way — an observation. That is a signature, and it is worth reading the three below with that in mind: the move is the same, the subject changes.
High-intensity exercise causes muscles to produce lactate which gets into the brain where it plays a direct role in the production of norepinephrine & serotonin.
Enough is enough. It’s time for vitamin D, which is low risk, to be strongly considered as a crucial factor in COVID-19.
Exercise causes muscles to act like a sponge and take up kynurenine, preventing its conversion to a neurotoxic agent implicated in depression.
