| 0:00.0 | Hey, what's up you guys? It's Ben Greenfield. |
| 0:02.8 | I don't know if any of you guys have ever seen Napoleon Dynamite. |
| 0:06.0 | That's my best impersonation of Kip from Napoleon Dynamite. |
| 0:09.6 | You ought to see my Napoleon Dynamite dance moves, by the way. |
| 0:12.8 | But I digress. |
| 0:14.0 | In today's episode, we're going to talk about meditation for mind-blowing sex, |
| 0:18.4 | meditation for insomnia, meditation for energy, and a whole lot more with my guest, Emily Fletcher. |
| 0:24.4 | But before we jump into that episode, I want to tell you about one of the best ways |
| 0:28.8 | to produce more collagen in your body. It's called vitamin C. |
| 0:32.5 | Why is vitamin C required to produce collagen? |
| 0:34.9 | Well, collagen is, of course, found in the connective tissue of skin and teeth and bones |
| 0:39.2 | and organs and cartilage. And what vitamin C does is it interacts with the amino acids |
| 0:44.5 | within collagen cells, specifically it adds hydrogen and oxygen to those amino acids so that they |
| 0:50.8 | may do their part in collagen production. Why am I telling you all this? |
| 0:55.6 | Because one of the best tasting green superfood powders on the face of the planet that I put a |
| 1:01.9 | little scoop of into my smoothie each day poses a high amount of lemon, citrus fruit that you |
| 1:09.7 | may be familiar with unless you've been living under a rock since you were born, because lemons are |
| 1:15.3 | pretty prevalent. Every time I walk into grocery store at least I find them or the little fake plastic |
| 1:20.3 | one full of lemon juice. Anyways, though, it's really good for stabilizing blood sugar level. |
| 1:24.5 | It's also really good for maximizing your collagen absorption. I actually use bone broth in my |
| 1:30.2 | smoothies too. So it's a good one to combo lemons and bone broth. Anyways, this green juice super |
| 1:37.2 | food is called organify and you get a 20% discount on it. You just go to Ben Greenfield Fitness.com |
