Mindsip insights from this episode:
Incorporate hydrogen water for selective antioxidant benefits
Adding hydrogen to your water provides a powerful, selective antioxidant that can quell inflammation without blunting the positive response from exercise.
Apply testosterone cream scrotally for natural rhythm
Applying a small amount of testosterone cream scrotally in the morning and evening better mimics the body's natural rhythm than weekly injections.
Approach high-dose psychedelics with caution to avoid vulnerability
High-dose psychedelics can rip open a portal to a spiritual world, leaving you in a very vulnerable and dangerous state.
Avoid fried foods to reduce long-term health risks
Oxidized compounds from vegetable oil in fried foods can stick around in your body for months or years, making them worse than pure sugar like cotton candy.
Diversify your diet to prevent 'princess gut' syndrome
Strictly limiting your diet to avoid foods that cause gas or bloating can paradoxically make your gut microbiome less diverse and more sensitive over time.
Prepare plant foods through soaking, sprouting, or fermenting for better digestion
Many 'healthy' plant foods like quinoa, oats, and beans contain natural defense mechanisms and should be soaked, sprouted, or fermented to improve digestion.
Select wines from France, Italy, or New Zealand for fewer pesticides
When ordering wine at a restaurant, choose from France, Italy, or New Zealand, as they generally use fewer pesticides and herbicides than US wines.
Install HEPA air filter in kitchen to improve air quality
Cooking, even just baking, can dramatically decrease indoor air quality, so placing a standalone HEPA air filter like a Jasper in the kitchen is a beneficial hack.
