The Hidden Truth Behind Toxins, Detoxification & Detox Diets.
21/02/2015 Duration: 56minDr. Tim Jackson - a medical ninja when it comes to nutritional biochemistry, digestive health, methylation and genetic testing and functional endocrinology - is no stranger to BenGreenfieldFitness.com. He penned the article that first appeared here entitled "Blame the Bugs: How Stealth Pathogens Are Making You Fat, Tired, and Brain Dead.", and also "Broken Gut to Big Butt: How A Busted Digestive System Can Make You Hormonally Fat." And now Dr. Tim is back with a vengeance. Just when I thought I knew everything there was to know about detoxification and detox diets, Tim began dropping knowledge bombs like xenobiotics, depuration, miasm, emunctory, and even drainage (yuk!). I had to get him on the podcast to open your eyes about what's really happening inside your body when you detox...or when you don't. So when it comes to detox, what you're about to hear is like no other podcast I've ever done on the topic, so strap on your earphones and prepare to learn: -Why the pH of your blood is just ONE part of proper a

Why Strong People Are Harder To Kill (And How To Get Strong).
14/02/2015 Duration: 42minI think I first heard it from a Navy SEAL that "Strong People Are Harder To Kill". And you're going to learn all about why that is in today's podcast, with my guest Keith Norris. At 15, Texan Keith was already involved in one of the premier fitness and weight training scenes in the country Powerhouse Gym, a legendary bodybuilding, training, and powerlifting mecca in San Antonio that launched the careers of athletes like Ms. Olympia Rachel McLish, Lori Bowen-Rice, Jeep Swenson and many others. A knee injury derailed Keith’s career as a linebacker at Texas State, but his experience rehabbing and working with some of the best strength coaches in the country continued to increase his interest in intelligent body development. In the mid 90s Keith competed in AAU Bodybuilding and won the title of Mr. Virginia and runner-up to Mr. America. In 2010, after navigating a successful 9 year military and 15 year corporate career, Keith was finally able to follow up on his lifelong dedication to training and c

The Shocking Truth About Vaccinations: Everything You Need To Know About Vaccines And Your Health.
07/02/2015 Duration: 48minIn Podcast #305, I broached the controversial topic of vaccines by discussing alternative vaccination schedules. That set off a firestorm of discussion on the Facebook page and my Twitter feed, so in today's episode I've decided to revisit the topic, and you're about to take a deep dive into the world of vaccines, learn the shocking truth about vaccinations, and get everything you need to know to make an educated choice about vaccines. My guest on today's show is Stephanie Seneff, who is a Senior Research Scientist at the MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory. For over three decades, her research interests have always been at the intersection of biology and computation: developing a computational model for the human auditory system, understanding human language so as to develop algorithms and systems for human computer interactions, as well as applying natural language processing (NLP) techniques to gene predictions. But in recent years, Dr. Seneff has focused her research interests back

The Shocking Truth About The Global Epidemic Of Lyme Disease
31/01/2015 Duration: 49minI recently watched the documentary Under Our Skin, which exposes the hidden story of medical and scientific malfeasance and neglect when it comes to Lyme disease. Thousands of people with Lyme disease go undiagnosed, or get misdiagnosed each year, and many who suffer the troubling effects of Lyme disease are simply told that their symptoms - from brain fog to chronic fatigue to frustrating muscle and joint pains - are “all in their head.” The film follows patients fighting for their lives and livelihoods, and brings into focus a haunting picture of a health care system that is all too willing to put profits ahead of patients. I found the film so incredibly interesting that I decided to interview health advocate Erin Elizabeth, who has actually had Lyme disease and dealt with it via completely natural remedies. In this episode, you'll discover: -Why common tests for Lyme disease won't work, and which test actually does work... -Why you can have Lyme disease and not even know it... -How comment, conventional tr
