0:00.0	Hello and thank you for listening to the Keto Answers podcast.
0:08.4	I'm your host Dr Anthony Guston and joining me this week is Ben Greenfield.
0:12.4	Ben, if you don't already know about him, is one of the lean experts in all things fitness,
0:16.8	nutrition, etc. This guy is kind of on the cutting edge using his body as a human guinea pig.
0:21.6	So he's done pretty much everything you could ever imagine from a biohacking standpoint.
0:26.4	Right, it's about an othlag. He has a podcast, all these different companies,

1:29.1	like it says. So salted caramel. So these things are great, you know, on the go as a treat, whatever,
1:34.0	same standards we have with the other bar. So we tested blood sugar with this, no blood sugar

1:42.4	And yeah, I mean, otherwise the exact same. We actually bumped the collagen from 10 to 11,
1:47.0	just because, you know, 10 grams of it now. So we had to go 11. And otherwise these things are
