I spend a lot of time talking to other people on my podcast... ...but I'm not going to do that today. Instead, today is going to be just me talking to you—a special episode that I affectionately call a solosode. Anyways, I spend most mornings sipping my morning beverage (whether that's coffee or tea or Lion's Mane), reviewing the latest research on topics such as longevity, caffeine, and exercise. This is because while I've written about nearly every health-related subject matter in the past, what we know is constantly evolving. Today is my chance to share a few of the latest goodies with you. So without further adieu, let's delve right in!
In this special solosode, you'll discover...
-What we can learn from supercentenarians...07:55
-The Knights Templar diet for longevity...13:40
-How to time caffeine intake for optimal oxidation and aerobic capacity...18:25
-Omega-3 supplementation in pregnancy for bigger babies and children...22:30
-Why HIIT is not the way to train...28:40
-The relationship between exercise and having a purpose statement...33:10
-Ben's morning journaling practice...35:35
-Ben's evening journaling practice...44:00
-Where to see Ben LIVE...48:05
-And much more...
