#73 - AMA #9: NAD & metformin, fat-burning zone, creatine, estrogenization of men, emergency kit for cold & flu, and more

In this "Ask Me Anything" (AMA) episode, Peter answers a wide range of questions from subscribers. Bob Kaplan, Peter's head of research, asks the questions. If you're not a subscriber and listening on a podcast player, you'll only be able to hear a preview of the AMA.
