know to live an adventurous, joyful, and fulfilling life. My name is Ben Greenfield. Enjoy the ride.

How animals respond to pre-mixed solutions of oats and alfalfa and grains versus how they

respond to those same mixes that they've self-selected themselves. All sorts of interesting things about

the animal kingdom. While my guest today, Fred Prevenza, who wrote the book Norishment, is a

wealth of knowledge on this stuff. This is a great episode, and it's brought to you by my company,

Keon, my playground for new supplement formulations. I was actually just on a phone call yesterday about a

brand new fat loss product. I'm working on that. I think you're going to find absolutely mind-blowing. It

even affects your microbiome, your carbohydrate cravings. This is the kind of stuff I do behind the
