And I asked myself who's taking care of that basic cell and the truth is no one is.

One of my really big beef is that we have become to DNA centric.

DNA only can tell you what's the possibility that can happen.

There's a big misconception right now that carbohydrates are bad.

It's actually not that. The biggest missing in acronutane in the human diet, Ben is.

I have a master's degree in physiology, biomechanics, and human nutrition.

I've spent the past two decades competing in some of the most masochistic events on the planet.

From seal-fit Kakoro, spardanagogy, and the world's toughest mudder to 13 Iron Man triathlons,

brutal bohunts, adventure races, spearfishing, plant foraging, freediving, bodybuilding, and beyond.

I combine this intense time in the trenches with a blend of ancestral wisdom and modern science,

search the globe for the world's top experts and performance, fat loss, recovery, hormones,

brain, beauty, and brawn to deliver you this podcast. Everything you need to know to live in a

adventurous, joyful, and fulfilling life. My name is Ben Greenfield. Enjoy the ride.

I've got a great podcast episode coming your way today with the guy who is not only one of the

world's most intelligent physicians based on his IQ, but a guy who's doing some amazing things

in the health industry, Dr. Ted Achakoso. Before we jump in, by the way, I haven't been doing many

podcast Q&A lately, although I do have some podcast Q&A's coming up pretty soon with a

brand new podcast host. You can wait with baited breath about that. But I haven't been doing the Q&A's,

haven't been doing a very good job, but you know where I'm at in the world. So at the time that you're

listening to this podcast, I'll be headed down to Austin, Texas. I'll be in Austin, Texas from

April 24th, all the way up through the 29th, that this fabulous event called Paleo FX. Paleo FX.

I will be sure to link to Paleo FX in the show notes for today's show over at Ben Greenfield Fitness.com
