575: Modius for Fat Loss with Tom Bilyeu & Dr. Jason McKeown

Tom Bilyeu & Dr. Jason McKeown came to the Mind Pump Media Studio to discuss Modius, a device that uses a non-invasive, drug-free method of stimulation to activate the vestibular nerve, indicating to your body that it is physically active & moving its set point for body fat down. There is a lot of science behind it but that doesn't keep Sal, Adam & Justin from having a healthy degree of skepticism and ask probing questions about the safety and long-term effectiveness of the device.
