Clearlight Sauna giveaway Sanctuary-2 Full Spectrum Sauna winner announcement! [00:00:00] News Flashes [00:04:59]: They say "heat accelerates recovery" and cold delays recovery, but they didn't have a hot-cold control group - that's what I personally do (hot-cold). A ketogenic diet lowers body fat and maintains performance in Crossfit athletes. Interesting. For fixing metabolic issues, the ketogenic diet beat out exercising.

Why You Don't Need To Eat After A Workout [00:26:37] Luke says: I training for a Spartan Super and I was at a talk by a sports physiologist and he kept stressing the need for post-workout carbs. He was saying "1 gram, per kilogram of weight, per hour of training, in the two hours following your workout." He showed some graphs showing how this was the most important time (blah blah blah). I've heard you talk about not eating immediately after. Something to do with HGH or Testosterone. Could you go into a little more detail about if carbs are actually needed? In my response, I recommend: -Kion Aminos How To Find Your Personal Circadian Rhythm [00:39:31] Sheridan says: Circadian Rhythm seems to be a hot theme in most health podcasts these days. What do you suggest is the most efficient way to find your personal circadian rhythm? Is it the Oura ring? Is there more to it than that? How would you find your personal circadian rhythm? In my response, I recommend: -Oura Ring -Power Of When book by Michael Breus -The chronotype quiz -mycircadianclock.org How To Absorb Iron Better [00:48:37] Mia says: I heard Dr Mercola say that turmeric blocks the absorption of iron (and I have low iron and ferritin). I take a fair amount of turmeric. If I take my liver pills at a different time than my turmeric, will that allow the iron to be absorbed better? In my response, I recommend: -Superhuman Coach Article on how to use turmeric Healthy Breakfast Travel Ideas [00:54:59] Daniel says: I personally consume your signature smoothie every morning and I am wondering what you eat in the morning when making your smoothie is just not an option?
