This triggers a process that makes you LOSE sodium at a rapid rate, causing headaches, low energy, muscle cramps, and insomnia. LMNT Recharge’s low-carb energy drink powders fix the problem so you feel your best!

 

Food has a direct impact on our health. Whether it’s a positive or a negative impact relies hugely on the kind of foods we are consuming day by day. Dr. Stephan Van Vliet joins Dr. Jockers in today’s episode to talk about his work which focuses on the effects of phytonutrients derived from beef on human metabolism. He also tackles how food, coupled with physical exercise, helps in battling chronic inflammation. Tune in to learn more about the findings from his studies and research.

 

“The bioactive compounds in milk were enhancing the most anabolic response. Most of the anabolic response is typically predicted by the amino acid profile which turns out when you start ingesting whole foods."
