Listener Q&A:As compiled, deciphered, edited and sometimes read by Brock Skywalker Armstrong, the Podcast Sidekick and Audio Ninja.
How To Run A Marathon With A Knee InjuryTony asks: He was diagnosed with IT Band Friction Syndrome. He went for Physical Therapy and it cleared up but he still has some pain on the front of his knee, just below the patella. He has tried everything he can including: Hokas, Cortisone (which just increased the pressure), Straps, Bands, Joint Supplements and Anti-inflammatories. His marathon is in a about a week - what can he do to give himself the best chance of finishing?
In my response I recommend: -My Bulletproof Knee program -Bauerfeind Genutrain Soft Knee Brace -MarcPro Electrostim ($32 discount at http://www.MarcPro.com with discount code "Ben")-FrozenPeaz-Natural Injury Pack Can Heat Make You Burn More Fat?Michael asks: He has seen a lot of people in Holland (where he lives) doing cardio with heat packs on to burn off stomach fat. He hasn't seen any research to support this idea. After reading your articles on cold thermogenesis, he is wondering if heat packs might even have a reverse effect on burning fat.
In my response I recommend: -The Fat Burner vest and Gut Buster vest at http://www.CoolFatBurner.com -Study: Aerobic fitness determines whole-body fat oxidation rate during exercise in the heat. -Article: Tim Ferriss's/Rhonda Patrick's article on hyperthermia How To Do Magnesium BathsIan asks: He has been using the Natural Calm bath salts in warm or hot baths. Now he is wondering is he should be using it in a cold bath (he takes a cold bath outside before and after his workouts). He doesn't drain the cold bath after each session (only every few days) so he is wondering how many days the magnesium would be good for?
In my response I recommend: -Magnetic Clay Magnesium Bath Flakes Stevia vs. Artificial SweetenersJessica asks: She is curious about the difference between artificial sweeteners and Stevia. She has read a bunch of articles about whether it is good or bad for weight loss and cravings - or over all health. The findings are quite controversial. She is also wondering if the chemical breakdown is different.
In my response I recommend: -Zevia soda -Chocolate SweetLeaf stevia drops -Podcast episode 15 and episode 237 -This infographic on Stevia Natural Remedies for Menstrual CrampsPeter asks: His wife and daughter both struggle with menstrual cramps and he tries to keep them away from things like ibuprofen. They do some magnesium (how much is too much) but the pain doesn't go away. Do you have any suggestions? Phenocane? Seems like these pains must be masking something.
In my response I recommend: -Hormone Testing -Adaptogenic Herb Tian Chi -Inner Peace herbs-Vitamin D balanced with Vitamin K -Vitex Hidden Causes of High Blood SugarSanket asks: Recently he did a fasting blood test where his A1C came to 5.5. His blood glucose was 116 after a 14 hour fast. He has noticed that if he works out moderately hard his blood sugar stays high for 2 to 3 days. If he doesn't exercise it is more like 80-85. He has a sedentary job, exercises once a week. He eats high fat but also grains. He fasts 11 to 12 hours a day. Are these blood sugar levels normal? Is there any way he can bring the A1C levels down?
In my response I recommend: -Testing for pancreatic insufficiency via Direct Labs GIEffects Panel -Testing for thyroid and hormones-----------------------------------------------------
