Can a Necklace or Pendant REALLY Provide EMF Protection?! How to Transform Harmful EMF Waves into Safe Energy

bengreenfieldfitness.com/modafinil   Modafinil (also known as "Provigil").       It's the darling of the smart drug industry, and has been for quite some time.     With over 200 human clinical studies in the past 10 years, it is reported to have few to no side effects, to not be addictive and to not be excessively stimulating.     It's used by notable figures like Joe Rogan, Ray Kurzweil, Barack Obama, Hilary Clinton, Tim Ferriss and many others.     It's the entire inspiration behind the smart drug movie Limitless with Bradley Cooper.     It may increase resistance to fatigue and improve mood, reaction time and vigilance, while simultaneously reducing bad decision making.     Laboratory studies have even shown that it may have potent antioxidative and neuroprotective effects.     Modafinil is also of a high interest to the US military for enhancing alertness and reducing battle fatigue.     Acute modafinil ingestion significantly increases exercise time to exhaustion.     So what could go wrong? Is this stuff too good to be true? Surely there must be some dark biological side of this supposed super smart drug. In today's podcast, I host a guest who knows more about the science of modafinil than anyone I'm aware of, and who, conveniently, happens to live just a few miles from my house: Dr. Jonathan Wisor.       During our discussion, you'll discover: -How Jonathan became interested in sleep and neuroscience...8:05         -What is Modafinil, exactly?...13:40         -How various neurotransmitters respond to modafinil...19:30         -Antioxidant and neuroprotective effects of modafinil...23:20         -How modafinil use can go wrong...31:15           -Whether or not genetics determine a response to modafinil...47:05         -How Modafinil affects sleep cycles...49:50         -How long does modafinil stay in the bloodstream after taking it...54:15       -Effects of combining modafinil w/ alcohol and drugs...57:55     -Why Jonathan has never used modafinil personally...1:05:50         Episode sponsors: Kion Creatine, Beekeeper's Naturals, Thrive Market, Seed   bengreenfieldfitness.com/modafinilSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The way we look and feel has very little to do with our chronological age, and my guest on today's podcast believes that positive thinking and changing your belief system are the most important factors in staying truly young.         In her book, You Can Be Younger, leading therapist Marisa Peer explains how you can arrest the ageing process by harnessing the power of your subconscious mind. By changing your thinking, you can change your body and become physically and mentally at least ten years younger. She also discusses how to retrain your mind so you can stay young and vibrant, how to implement cell regeneration therapy to counteract the ageing process, and how to boost energy and visibly improve your skin's appearance.         There are few speakers today that have the wide experience and stellar reputation of Marisa Peer. Named ‘Britain’s Best Therapist’ by Tatler magazine, Marisa has spent over three decades treating a client list that includes international superstars, CEOs, royalty, and Olympic athletes.         Training early in her career as a child psychologist, Marisa later earned further qualifications from the Hypnosis Training Institute of Los Angeles and the Pritikin Longevity Centre. In 2015, Marisa Peer founded Rapid Transformational Therapy™, an exciting and award-winning training method that is solution-oriented, fast, and highly effective. Having spent over thirty years developing her technique, which is renowned as life-changing and dynamic and spoken of in superlatives, Marisa has trained over 3,000 RTT™ therapists around the world.         Within two years of its launch, Rapid Transformational Therapy™ won eleven awards in just six months because of its effectiveness and its revolutionary transformational techniques. She trains RTT™therapists in London, Los Angeles, and Australia every year.           A best-selling author of five books, Marisa’s USP is that she teaches “simple steps that produce dramatic and life-changing results.” When she reveals her fundamental rule –that all our emotional and personal problems come from us believing that we’re not enough’ – and explains how to overcome it, the results are tremendous and dramatic.

bengreenfieldfitness.com/shieldedhealingpodcast       Sit back and prepare for a wild ride, because it's finally here: The official, fully updated, EMF-shielding "building biology" analysis of my biohacked home in the forest.       Are your sleep-enhancing devices potentially hurting your brain and sleep patterns due to the dirty electricity they emit during a night of sleep?     Is a "low-EMF" office really low EMF?     Do "healthy" saunas produce EMFs or dirty electricity?     Is it OK to use popular grounding or earthing devices?     Do any of those fancy EMF personal protection devices actually work?     How big a deal are cell phone towers or 5G panels, even if you don't live directly nearby one?           We'll tackle these questions and plenty more as you get to listen in (and watch, using the video here on this page) during an entire building biology analysis of the Greenfield home.           My guest on today's show, Brian Hoyer, first joined me on the show "The Intriguing Science Of Building Biology (Along With A Complete Analysis & Surprising Results From Ben Greenfield’s So-Called “Biohacked Home”)".           Brian’s dive into health started when he became a father wanting to provide the most optimal growing environment for his family. His desire for them to thrive—and his devotion to discover the truth—drove him to find the most insightful and effective cutting-edge methods for addressing what’s really going on in our bodies and environments. This led Brian to become a functional nutritional therapy practitioner, train with The Klinghardt Academy, and become a certified geobiologist trained by a pioneering naturopathic and environmental medicine clinic in Austria that’s been addressing EMFs and geopathic stress since 1983.           Brian and his wife, Lindsey, built an EMF shielded tiny house in the summer of 2017. Brian travels all over the country doing EMF assessments, speaking at conferences and on podcasts, and helping families install shielding solutions. After testing many homes for EMF around the country Brian founded Shielded Healing in 2017 with the goal of helping modern humanity recreate electromagnetic environments that more closely mimic our historic human habitats.         According to Brian, EMF testing and mitigation has been stuck in the same pattern for 20-30 years. The last 10-15 years professionals all around the world have been recommending the same solutions even as our exposure has increased 500-1000 times or more. The same fabrics, the same meters, the same recommendations, and saying pretty much the same things, despite the drastic increase in exposures and chronic illness.   Here's what you'll hear in the podcast: -The difference between a "building biologist" and an EMF shielding expert...7:00         -The protocol Brian follows when evaluating a home or office...11:00         -Living Room and Kitchen...31:45           -Boys' Bedrooms...1:09:50           -Master bedroom...1:51:45         -Smart Meter and Solar Panels...2:13:30         -Biohacking Room...2:31:15       -The Office...2:57:45       Closing Ceremony...3:30:00   bengreenfieldfitness.com/shieldedhealingpodcastSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

"You can sin with food in many ways -- by not sharing it, by eating way too much of it, by throwing it across the restaurant table... But you do not sin with food by bowing your head over it, saying grace with true gratitude in your heart, and tucking in." These words come from a book written by today's guest - Doug Wilson. His sharp-edged but humorous title Confessions of a Food Catholic addresses the unscriptural approach to food that many Christians have developed in recent years (by the way, a "food catholic" is somebody who accepts all eaters of all foods, even if he or she doesn't actually eat quinoa).     Specifically, the book addresses divisive threats to Christian table fellowship, the know-it-all pride of newfangled "health food" rules, and the dislocated moralism that makes "organic" and "natural" the signs of righteousness while disdaining the brethren who buy their beef at Stuffmart.       In today's podcast, Doug and I get into his approach to how Christianity mingles with food choices, and much more - including longevity and anti-aging, nutrition, diets fitness and the ultimate source of the joy and happiness so many of us turn to these type of activities to fulfill. We also discuss Doug's take on Joel Salatin, the true cost of food, and how we care for the planet.       Doug Wilson is an old family friend of mine, the minister of Christ Church in Moscow, Idaho, which is a member of the Communion of Reformed Evangelical Churches (CREC) and church I attended all throughout my childhood and during college. After his stint in the submarine service of the U.S. Navy, he attended the University of Idaho, where he obtained an MA in philosophy.     As one of its founders, Doug has served on the board of Logos School, a classical and Christian school (K-12), since its inception. He is also a Senior Fellow of theology at New St. Andrews College, which I consider to be one of the better liberal arts institutions in the country.     He is the author of numerous books, including Reforming Marriage, The Case for Classical Christian Education, Letter from a Christian Citizen, and Blackthorn Winter. Doug is also the general editor for the Omnibus textbook series. His blog can be found at www.dougwils.com and his metric ton of grandkids can be found spread across the planet with rapidly increasing frequency. During this discussion, you'll discover: -What is a "food catholic?"...9:15         -How to identify what Doug calls "phood pharisees"...12:35         -How people use diets as a substitute for true righteousness...16:50         -How to use food to assist in the pursuit of holiness...22:15         -How food as an anti-aging tactic can enhance or detract from your spirituality...26:25         -Advice for social situations where you're offered food you personally find objectionable... 36:50         -How to view food with respect to the humane treatment of God's creation...41:50         -Balancing rigorous physical and spiritual disciplines...52:00         -The one thing fitness buffs need to hear the most...1:00:15       bengreenfieldfitness.com/dougwilsonSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

bengreenfieldfitness.com/carnivorecodebook       I recently got my hands on Dr. Paul Saladino's new book "The Carnivore Code".  Now, if you don't know who Paul is, then you must listen to my previous episodes with him, including: The Truth About The Carnivore Diet: Everything You Need To Know About Dangers, Benefits, Mistakes & Hacks For Eating Only Meat. Carnivore Diet, Cleaning Out Your Colon, Eating Brains, Hunting Zebras & Much More With Paul Saladino. The Toxicity Of Plants, Carnivore For Athletes, Does Meat Cause Acidity, The “Game Changers” Debate & Much More With Dr. Paul Saladino. Since I've interviewed Paul, he has published this new book, and after reading it, I had plenty of tough questions for him, including:       -How do we *know* the reason our stomachs became 1000x more acidic than a chimp is because of animal food consumption?       -Is the decline in height and health fully attributable to plant/agriculture, or could it be due to industrialization, crowded cities, etc?       -Why do you say present hunter gatherers no longer have access to large game?        -You say herbivores can detoxify plant toxins, but we can't. How do they do it?       -All the isothiocyanate studies are in vivo for human cells. How positive are you the results are replicated in vitro?       -You say hypothyroidism/crucifer intake is *reported* in Western culture. What's that mean, exactly? Anecdotes?       -When you list the "Bad News Gang", like cigarettes, alcohol, etc. couldn't you just as easily lump exercise, cold, heat, sunlight, etc. in with factors that turn on NRF2? If so, how do you personally describe your differentiation between good vs. bad NRF2 activators?       -The studies showing value for elimination of fruit/vegetable consumption are pretty short (10-12 weeks). Any longer term studies? And did these studies factor in how the produce was being prepared (e.g. presence of oils, organic vs. inorganic, etc.)?       -When you say high intake of isoflavones causes endocrine disruption, how much is high? Same thing with Chaga for liver cancer (pg 81). Isn't that a shit-ton of chaga?       -If polyphenols reduce intestinal enzyme production, couldn't other plant compounds, such as bitters/herbs/spices, along with adequate chewing, combat that by increasing enzyme production?       -You say resveratrol has repeatedly shown lack of value in human studies, but what about Sinclair's research? Hasn't he shown the opposite?       -I found it fascinating the claim that plant-based eaters still "crave" or are attracted to meat, but how is an ERP measured exactly?       -You say that carbohydrates that accompany plant fiber can spike insulin. That's painting with a pretty broad brush, isn't it? I think the lion's share of plants don't result in an appreciable insulin spike, do they?       -You say meat is not associated with cancer, but what about if active tumor growth already exists? Would you change anything if you had cancer?       -The study on telomere length being increased only by red meat was an observational study on 28 people. Any other studies looking directly at telomere or Horvath clock responses to plant vs. animal intake that are larger, more robust or non-observational?       -You say that fruits are seeds coated in natural candy, but can't we eat the fruit flesh and "leave the seeds behind?"       -What do you say about all the studies showing reduced risk of liver cancer, diabetes, etc. amongst regular coffee drinkers?       -You say unrendered fat is your preference. Any studies on rendered vs. unrendered fat health, nutrient quality, etc?       -You say oleosins from coconut/olive oil may cause a strong allergic reaction. How conclusive is that?       Whew! You'd think after all these questions, Paul would let me know I'm being a total pain in the butt, but instead, he graciously offered to do a solosode answering all these questions and highlighting many other up-to-date details on the carnivore diet.       In Paul's solosode, you'll discover: -An overview of the carnivore diet...6:45         -"Rabbit starvation" and the ideal ratio of protein to fat to shoot for...15:40         -How plants and agriculture have contributed to the decline in human height and health...27:45         -Why present hunter gatherers no longer have access to large game...35:45         -How our stomachs became 1000x more acidic than that of a chimp because of animal food consumption...39:45         -Why herbivores can detoxify plant toxins, but humans cannot...51:45         -Studies on the effects of isothiocyanates in humans...1:01:55         -The difference between environmental and molecular hormesis...1:06:53         -A high intake of isoflavones causes endocrine disruption, how much is "high"? Same thing with Chaga for liver cancer...1:22:40         -Why Resveratrol has limited value for humans...1:29:45         -How to measure Event Related Potentials (ERP)...1:37:00         -Whether plants do or do not spike insulin levels...1:40:20         -What changes in the diet to make if you have cancer...1:53:25       -The correlation between meat intake and telomere lengths...1:57:48       -Lightning round questions...2:05:10     -And much more!     Episode sponsors: Kion Lean, Organifi, CAR.O.L Bike, Pique Tea         bengreenfieldfitness.com/carnivorecodebookSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
