My name is Ben Greenfield and on this episode of the Ben Greenfield Life Podcast, our genome is about a quarter million years old, right?

So we are wired to for caveman ancestral habits. We have been changed. A genome has not changed in that time, and it doesn't seem like it's changing either.

So in today's context, where the food is so toxic, you don't have a first line of defense, right? In our ancestors context, they didn't need it.

Now, when somebody has the good version of GSTM1, they have both copies, Mom and Dad both gave it to them, and they live in today's reality, and they're not careful about what they're eating, they will end up with an autoimmune condition.

It's kind of like, in COVID, you had that cytokine storm, the body's fighting so well, it fights itself.

So there's no such thing as good and bad in genetics, there's context. Who are you? What are you doing? What are you doing with these tools that you've been given?

And with the tool of gut detox, it's actually the mid-level where you're kind of minus 50%, that's the ideal for today's reality.

The optimal version is going to hurt you, and so there's so many people that are walking around with autoimmune, masking the autoimmune, not knowing that their gut is triggering it because of what they're putting into their gut.

The response is overwhelming because it's wired for an ancestry of the worst possible diet was a tiny fraction of what we're exposed to.

Faith, family, fitness, health, performance, nutrition, longevity, ancestral living, biohacking, and a whole lot more. Welcome to the show.

Alright, folks, it's time for you to start hacking your sleep. Big part of that is choosing the right equipment for that desired outcome, better sleep.

I go organic. Matter of fact, there's one mattress that scores the best on eliminating all sleep-interrupted stimulants with a patented beyond latex organic foam technology to give you deep and REM sleep cycles that match what you're actually looking for.

They've used a patented technology within these mattresses that are totally allergen-free to allow you to experience an active cooling during the night of sleep.

If you ever get the meat sweats, this helps you get rid of that, not only that, but they've also introduced an EMF technology, meaning they have an EMF barrier foam technology that protects you against the negative impacts of EMF exposure while you sleep.

So instead of your mattress producing but your Wi-Fi and dirty electricity, this is actually protecting you from that.

They've even done dark film microscopy studies and identified that blood cells react to EMFs by beginning to cluster or clot together, and that disrupts the natural flow of blood through the body.

And their EMF barrier foam made by this mattress company Ascensha actually helps return your blood cells to their natural free flowing state, which allows your bloodstream to optimize the oxygen flowing through the body and improves your body's nighttime recovery cycles and your sleep quality.

So if you want to experience Ascensha for yourself and save an additional 100 bucks off your mattress purchase, you can use my code Ben VIP.

Well, I've told you in the past about that red organic super food powder. I often smear on my meat when I'm cooking up meat and I want an amazing energetic meat rub.
