Show Notes:
[3:00] Mikhaila starts the episode with Ben Greenfield talking about all the amazing things you can do with tea. They also trade some recipes for beef and liver meals.
[7:00] Mikhaila asks about EMFs (electromagnetic fields) and how dangerous they are to our health? Ben starts by using many examples from the house that he built and currently lives in. There are certainly ways to limit your time in your own home that you may be around harmful frequencies.
[14:30] Mikhaila asks if there are any studies or research comparing people who live in environments that have high level of EMFs and those living in areas with very few EMFs.
[17:30] How minor changes can have a drastic impact on sleep.
[19:00] Mikhaila and Ben start a discussion about structured water. What is structured water and why might it be better for you and worth the effort to create?
[26:00] Carbonated fun drinks and the benefits of stevia over other sweeteners.
[28:30] What is Methylene Blue. Methylene Blue + infrared light makes human cells produce great amounts of ATP leading to increased energy levels and cognition.
[31:00] How infrared light and cold heat exposure benefits the body.
[35:00] Talking about a faraday cage, more on blocking unwanted EMF frequencies.
[36:00] Ben talks about some portable biohacking devices he uses when he travels.
[40:00] What’s the deal with grounding pads?
[43:30] Mikhaila changes the topic over to nutrition

[11:30] What causes people to start becoming insulin resistant? Dr. Ben believes there are three primary causes of insulin resistance. Stress hormones (cortisol and epinephrine) create insulin resistance, elevated stress levels create more of these hormones. Inflammation on its own causes cells to become insulin resistant. Too much insulin referring to elevated amounts of insulin in the blood in a domino effect that quickly makes the imbalance of insulin and glucose higher. Omega 6 fats (abundant in processed vegetable oils like soybean and canola) make the body’s fat cells insulin resistant. “Insulin resistance is sort of this process of one tissue falling like the first domino. I believe that it’s the fat cells that become insulin resistant first, and in doing so they start bumping into other tissues like muscle, liver, brain, etc.”
