Description

In this podcast, recorded during the Swiss Clinic retreat that I led in the Swiss Alps two weeks ago, we cover a host of questions from attendees.

Strap yourself in and prepare for this massive Q&A that includes the following: -Are you increasing mTOR by taking Kion Aminos throughout the day vs. around a workout? [6:25]
  • 1 gram of amino acids = 1 gram of protein
  • Any protein can be anabolic
  • Exercising with 10 g of aminos is more effective than in a pure fasted state
-What are the best protocols for eliminating heavy metals and toxins, and how do you measure success? [10:20] -How to find relief from exercise-induced rhinitis [18:40] -Is there a threshold between the sympathetic and parasympathetic state? [21:30]
  • There is no threshold
  • Autonomic nervous system sends signal to the heart via vagus nerve
  • Good balance between the two dictates the vagus nerve communication with the heart will be clear
  • High HRV is indicative of healthy balance between sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems
  • Breath work is highly efficacious
-What is the latest science on carnivore, ketogenic, vegan diets? [28:15]
  • There is no one "perfect" diet to follow; it's highly individualized
  • Be aware of your ancestry and adjust your diet accordingly
  • Periods of caloric restriction are very beneficial
  • Ben does a Kitchari cleanse 4x per year
-How dangerous are WiFi, cellular, 5G signals? [35:15]
