What's up, guys? Welcome to Meathead Hippie podcast. I'm Emily Schramm, your host. Just bring in all the

0:05.9

goodness to you one episode at a time because these guests are on fire so far in 2018.

0:12.3

Already listened, you might have already listened, Diane Sanfilippa. We had Anthony Gustin,

0:17.1

really big prominent figures, especially in the paleo community, but now I'm really excited to

0:21.4

interview someone completely different, Dr. Stephen Lynn, who has been on some TED Talks.

0:26.4

He's been on, actually, he just released his book. So as you're listening to this, the book is

0:31.0

released and I'll link it in. He's been just so many places because what he has to say about

0:36.1

0:38.5

struggle so much with my teeth and my mouth. And I had this horrible story, which I'll talk about

0:43.3

in the podcast, about getting my wisdom teeth out and then them dry socketing in the middle

1:12.4

just research that's happened forever ago but no one's talking about was just so much fun. So I can't

1:23.0

teeth issues. If you have teeth issues, I feel your pain, but I promise this stuff works. These supplements

1:29.2

are ones that I love and I take. Try to get it with food and supplement accordingly. And that's why

1:35.1

it's so important with vegans and vegetarians to really, really look at the nutrient density in

1:40.4

your food and supplement accordingly for the things that you're missing. If you refuse to

1:45.0

eat egg yolks, you got to make up for it somehow. And I just hope that this really hits home for

1:50.4
