Podcast Questions:

Kombucha - Synergy Brand With NO ADDED Sugar [7:24]
Barry says:

I'm making my way through your Wired to Eat book, and have started the 30 day reset plan.  What's your advice on consuming 1 bottle of this kombucha per day with no added sugar but 15-20 grams of carbs per bottle from various fruit juices?  Thanks!

Paleo and Dementia Prevention [10:39]
Rebecca says:

Hi Robb. I am a long time fan and we did actually meet at the Keto Conference in Long Beach in 2019. I have a question and hoping you can shine some of your light - which I trust immensely as a healthcare provider. I have been doing more research on dementia prevention and the data is very skewed towards the Mediterranean Diet - which increases whole grains and limits fats and proteins. As someone who believes in Paleo (and keto for certain conditions), what has your research guided you towards for nutritional prevention of dementia?

I look forward to your response!

This looks at using mct oil....this might be the easier one to tackle:

Hypercarnivore Don Matesz Claims We Should Stop Adding Salt [14:48]
Borge says:

Chose a grabbing subject line there, didn’t I? :)

Since you are the “salt/electrolyte guy” (you are obviously so much more than that), I just wanted to share this article with you:

https://www.fullrangestrength.com/salt-promotes-atherosclerosis.html

Don is the author of two books, The Hypercarnivore and more recently Meats & Sweets. Yes, same as with Carnivore Aurelius and Paul Saladino, he’s been swayed to add fruits and roots to his carnivore/keto approach.

But more recently he started posting about his discoveries about sodium and that we should stop adding sodium to our foods, as it will imbalance the potassium:sodium ratio.

I would love to hear your thoughts on this. Maybe it’s not important on a carb-based diet, but on a low-carb/keto/carnivore diet where insulin is low it is more important?

The research he refers to is all from carb-based diets.
