WHERE DO YOU GET YOUR PROTEIN!?

Are you still being asked this silly question?

In this episode we dive deep to understand WHAT protein actually is, WHAT it does for your body, and HOW MUCH you actually need.

In the end, we debunk a lot of misconceptions held about proteint requirements and your plant based diet.

In this episode we get a little sciencey to discuss some critical information to understand so you can fuel your body optimally.

DISCLAIMER: We do NOT recommend counting macronutrients, or any other nutritional metric for that matter, including calories!

Some important takeaways include...

The miracle of nitrogen-fixing bacteria
Essential vs non-essential amino acids
"plant protein" vs "animal protein"
How animal protein can acidify the body
The risks of a high protein diet
The myth of protein deficiency

#202 | Dr. Ben Benulis: Vaccine Science and Covid Craziness

Episode Summary

Dr. Ben Benulis is back for another great conversation! This time, he's guiding me out of the 'controversy closet' as we both speak up and share our passion about vaccine safety and medical freedom.

We most certainly could have gone on and on in any number of directions here, but we stay focused to the science of vaccines (or lack thereof) and also what to think and expect in terms of the forthcoming coronavirus vaccine.

Some highlights of this conversation include...

Why children today receive 72 shots compared to ~12 when we were both young
Why vaccines are not held to any scientific rigor like other pharmaceuticals
The potential 'injuries' associated with vaccines
The link between our chronic disease epidemic and vaccines
Thoughts on the pandemic, and the coronavirus RNA vaccine

This is about growth and evolution of the collective. This is about waking up to your power to live in peace.

There is no better time to be right here, right now. There is no better time to be alive and awake in this amazing life!

Some takeaways...

Health and peace is our birthright - it's who we are!
There is nothing you need to do, read, listen to, or practice to be more of who you already are
Division and separation is an illusion perpetuated by thoughts we believe to be true
Habits and behaviors can keep us asleep and present in the moment
Biodiversity and diversity of the human race is crucial for health and evolution
