Listener Q&A:

====================================== [contact-form 3 "AskBen"] ======================================

Listener Jim asks a call in question about P90X (Ben recommends Shape21, pictured right, as a healthy alternative to P90X)

Dan asks: What are your thoughts on TVP (textured vegetable protein) also called textured soy protein (TSP)? My wife is a vegetarian and incorporates it into meals very easily. I understand it is highly processed which is usually bad. The nutrition facts look really good for fiber and protein. If I am trying to keep or gain muscle mass is this helpful or hurtful for me to consume?

Paul asks: I know you have answered questions regarding energy drinks before. My question is how long does it take to reverse the negative effects caused by them. I have had a two a day Monster/Redbull habit for about five years. My biggest worry is the effects on the adrenal system. Does stopping consumption have an instant effect, or something that will occur over time.

Heather asks: I've had tiny red bumps on the back of my arms for most of my life. They don't itch. I've heard it may be an omega 3 deficiency, but that hasn't helped....What can you do about tiny red bumps on the back of your arms?

Mike asks: Ben, if one had food allergies or sensitivities to certain foods would it necessarily be obvious, or could one suffer minor effects unknowingly? For instance, I've drunk milk all of my life without ever noticing any direct negative effects. Is this enough to eliminate concerns or might there be more subtle or indirect issues?

In my answer to Mike, I recommend the GI Panel.

Paul asks: You have spoken a lot about taking magnesium prior to bed. How many mg of do you recommend? In my response to Paul, I recommend Natural Calm.

Amy asks: I have been training for my first half marathon while trying to lose some weight to get faster. I am 5' 3" and 155, with only a 12 minute pace. I know my weight is my biggest speed disadvantage. What I don't understand is why I still seem to bonk on my long runs that go over 1 3/4 - 2 hours since I have all this "onboard" fuel to burn. How many calories do I have to eat during my run to keep the fat burning, or should I just keep trying to push through those low points?

Jeff asks: I was wonder if you have you heard the the ASEA Water?

Elizabeth asks: What can you tell us about the e21 Recovery supplement?

Jim asks: I'm 35 and looking to join a professionals basketball league in ny- can you recommend any workouts that can help me become faster and allow me to not tire out while playing full court?

Darrell asks: I run 2-3 miles at a time for a total of 12-18 miles a week and use Asics Enduro shoes. Recently, the very tip of my 2nd toe (I think it is the 2nd distal phalanges) has been sore. I really notice as I push off it during a run and while relaxing in the evening. Is this a common issue for runners?

Craig asks: I’m currently following a half marathon prep/training plan but am having trouble with fuel and fluids. On the bike I take a large swig of plain water every ten minutes, a full serving of Hammer Perpetuem and 1-3 Hammer Endurolytes at the top and bottom of every hour. I’ve tried taking in the same amount of fluid running but end up with stomach distress. My current projection for my run time is 2:25. My goal is to get it to 2:00. What do you suggest to keep my fluid intake up for that amount of time? Would using solids help? In Rock Star Triathlete Episode 5 you mentioned you only carry your aero bottle of water in an Ironman distance event and fill it at the aid stations. In a WTC event do they do hand ups of water or do you have to stop for a fill?

Josh asks: I know you're not a doctor, but I just want to get an idea of what you think may be going on with an issue I'm having, as I'd rather not waste time in a doctors office if possible. About a month ago I started the Triathlon Dominator Package training and went out to do my time trial run. I used some beat up, worn out racing flats I had as I was wanting to make every second count. Unfortunately, I think they were a bit too worn out and I hit a lot of jagged rocks when running. Since doing that run I've been having some minor sesamoid bone pain under my left foot. It usually starts hurting (as if pushing on a bruise or a dull but nagging pain) after about 5miles in and then continues to hurt until I'm done running. Walking on it doesnt tend to hurt it unless I walk on uneven terrain. There is no noticeable swelling or redness. Not sure if I've bruised the bone or what, but I've been running on the treadmill every week until my weekend run and it's fine until I hit the pavement. Any words of wisdom to help me to possibly get over this?

Listener has a call in question about fish oil.

In my response to Pat, I recommend the Pharmax brand fish oil.

Brian asks: Ben, I have heard you compare various protein powders (whey versus soy); and whey cows milk to whey goats milk. Please compare those with the benefits of Garden Of Life's product, Raw Protein, made from various sprouts. Is this protein powder doing me any favors with health and/or performance on the bike?

David Starr asks via a call-in question: Hey Ben. I listened to podcast #129 and you talked about IGF-1 in foods, particular meat and dairy. What about the IGF-1 spray that harvests velvet deer antlers? You pump the spray into your mouth and hold for 30 seconds. Have you heard of it? It became a hot topic when a Steelers player admitted to using it. You can visit http://www.antisteroidprogram.com/theultimatespray.html to see the product. I hear nothing but good stuff about it, but can you digress on the cons? Thanks a bunch Ben, you help keep the ‘little guys’ out there well informed!!

Jenny asks: Do you have any prior posts or suggestions for cutting back on drinking wine? I read an older postcast you had out about stopping drinking dr pepper, and in that, you helped a lot of people out with their problem areas. Well, mine is the vino. I would love to become a one glass person on the weekends rather than a 3 glass person, which is too many calories. Do you have any tricks to cutting back?

In my response to Jenny, I mention Nutrarev as a wine alternative (pictured left) and Thermofactor.

Armi asks: I was researching infrared recovery treatment and stumbled upon this website and others claiming that FAR Infrared treatments can burn up to 600kc/hour just by sitting in them. What do you think? Are these things even safe? Also-does sitting in a regular sauna and/or steam room burn many calories?

Kevin asks: I wanted to get your thoughts on the pre workout products NO Explode and Jak3D. I almost exclusively eat 'real' food with all of my food getting made at home without a package. However, prior to my nutrition change I used NO Explode and loved it. I stopped bc I wanted to cut out caffeine and honestly had no idea what the ingredients were. NO Explode now has a caffine free version so I wanted to get your thoughts on these products, are they safe pre Ironman training or should I just avoid them.

In my response to Kevin, I recommend he listens to: http://getfitguy.quickanddirtytips.com/do-muscle-building-supplements-work.aspx

Dale asks: My son wants to run bloomsday. I am concerned 8yrs old is a bit too young to run a 12K. He ran 3 5k races last summer and he runs about a 9.5 minute mile. Should he stick to 5k's until he gets a little more mature?

Lisa asks: I generally run two marathons a year, so I'm specifically looking for something to drink during/after long and medium long runs. I really like gatorade, but I'm looking for something that's both cheaper and uses natural ingredients, so I want to try making my own. Should I just look at the ingredients in sports drinks and try to match the various sodium/potassium/ carb amounts? What other ingredients in sports drinks are important to include when making your own? Is something like tart cherry juice a good ingredient? Or coconut water? For the sodium, do I just throw some salt in? Any guidance on this would be appreciated!

Lisa also asks: My boyfriend, whom I live with, currently isn't active and never has been. He would like to start working out, but he has no idea where to start. He has fibromyalgia, and experiences a lot of pain. He's tried to start a couple different things, like P90X and he was trying to play on a recreational basketball league for a couple weeks, but everything so far has really caused his fibro to act up. Do you have any suggestions?

Is This Like Drinking HUNDREDS of Bottles Of Hydrogen In A Single Sitting? The Massive Antioxidant Benefits of *Inhaling* Hydrogen, With Dr. Tyler LeBaron & Alex Tarnava.

Is This Like Drinking HUNDREDS of Bottles Of Hydrogen In A Single Sitting? The Massive Antioxidant Benefits of *Inhaling* Hydrogen, With Dr. Tyler LeBaron & Alex Tarnava.

Tyler W. LeBaron, MSc, Ph.D., is the founder and executive director of the nonprofit Molecular Hydrogen Institute. With a background in biochemistry, physiology, and exercise science, he teaches exercise physiology and chemistry labs at Southern Utah University as an adjunct instructor. He interned at Nagoya University in Japan's Department of Neurogenetics, researching the molecular mechanisms of hydrogen gas on cell-signaling pathways. Tyler is a director of both the International Hydrogen Standards Association (IHSA) and the International Molecular Hydrogen Association (IMHA). He speaks at medical and academic conferences worldwide, collaborates with researchers globally, and works to advance the education and awareness of hydrogen as a therapeutic medical gas. Outside the lab, he trains in running and competes in arm wrestling. Alex Tarnava is a self-taught scientist, inventor, and author whose work bridges biomedical innovation, sovereign health, and philosophical disruption. He invented the world’s only open-cup molecular hydrogen tablet—a patented delivery system that has become the most studied and widely adopted form of hydrogen therapy, featured in over 21 published clinical trials. Alex has co-authored 17 peer-reviewed papers, with more in press and under review. He is also the co-inventor—alongside Tyler—of Inhale H₂, the first safe and effective hydrogen inhalation system.

Jay Feldman is a health coach, independent health researcher, and the host of The Energy Balance Podcast.

He now uses a bioenergetic approach to help people worldwide overcome symptoms of low energy, including chronic hunger, poor sleep, and stubborn weight gain. Dr. Eric Westman is an Associate Professor of Medicine at Duke University. He is board-certified in Obesity Medicine and Internal Medicine, and founded the Duke Keto Medicine Clinic with Dr. William S. Yancy Jr. in 2006 after 8 years of clinical research regarding low-carbohydrate ketogenic diets.

6 Hours Of Sleep Per Night Is OK??? Plus How To Sleep Like A Caveman (Wisdom From Our Ancestors For A Better Night's Sleep!) With Dr. Merijn van de Laar

6 Hours Of Sleep Per Night Is OK??? Plus How To Sleep Like A Caveman (Wisdom From Our Ancestors For A Better Night's Sleep!) With Dr. Merijn van de Laar

I’m always on the lookout for a good book on sleep, and I recently read one of the better titles I’ve found in the past few years: How to Sleep Like a Caveman: Ancient Wisdom for a Better Night's Rest—Based on the Evolutionary Science of Sleep from Saber-Toothed Tigers to Modern Insomnia. Written by today’s podcast guest, Dr. Merijn van de Laar, one of the world’s leading sleep scientists, it is a bit like Sapiens meets Why We Sleep in an evolutionary romp through the science of sleep—and how you can get better rest. If you’re curious about the science of sleep, what our evolutionary past can teach you, and actionable ways to wake up truly rested, this episode is for you.
