Introduction to topic
List links to results of a self-tracking experiment that are both non-obvious and actionable.
Examples that should *not* be on this list:
- Quitting Smoking Makes Me Cough Less
- Eating more fruits and vegetables makes me healthier
It should be noted that just about every Project produced an actionable result for the self tracker (conventional wisdom testing, optimal doses) if not a new idea for humanity as a whole.

The List
Nick Winter - A Lazy Man’s Approach to Cognitive Testing
Butter slows by 28ms. Feeling great improves speed by 12ms. Together pracetam and choline counteract the effects of butter. Gluten, whey, lactose, krill oil, and music didn't do anything to Winters. Music made these tests much more fun for him. Acetolocarnatine did a bit on one test. Creatine helped especially on coding test. Walking desk helped a little bit.
Seth Roberts - shows that walking 60 minutes per day improves his blood sugar.
Observational, Many variables
Most talks in Projects focus on a small section of possible variables to track and a few sturdy results. There are the "data dredging" projects which try to track many different aspects of a user and give lots of little advice.
