Hello and welcome to Not Just Paleo.

I'm your host Evan Brand.

And my question to start this off today is,

are you someone who takes supplements and herbs and vitamins

because you've read somewhere that they're good for you

or you've found that something relaxes you a little bit

or energizes you a little bit?

Well, you may rethink taking some of these things so liberally after this show today with Dr. Dan Kalish and I, as we

discuss brain chemistry a little bit more and talk about why it's a little bit more important

to learn to test and actually figure out what your brain might be deficient in from a lifetime

of stress and nutrient deficiencies and things like that, rather than just jumping in and

throwing in some supplemental herbs or vitamins to change the way you feel and think.

So we're going to get right into it.

It's going to be a good show today.

And I just want to thank you for the people across the planet that are leaving reviews for the show.

And if you haven't yet, can you please do that?

It would be so helpful.

When you're on iTunes on Not Just Paleo, click on that ratings and reviews tab there.

Write in some stars, write in your comment, and submit it.

That will change my life

and change other people's too by spreading the show to them. So thank you. And I hope you check

out the website. There's a lot of new content there and blog articles that you may be missing out on
