Muscle Intelligence — Longevity, Training & Human Performance with Ben Pakulski

Dr. William Pawluk is THE foremost authority on the use of Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy (PEMF) in North America. Dr. Pawluk is a family physician with a practice near Baltimore, Maryland, and has had training in acupuncture, homeopathy, hypnosis, and bodywork. His goal is to emphasize that there is very good science to support the use of PEMFs across a wide spectrum of health conditions and physiologic functions.

I've experienced great outcomes with PEMF therapy for recovery, and I've been using it since 2009. As PEMF gets more buzz these days, there's a lot of information to sift through… And although PEMF devices can be extremely effective, they're also an investment - and there's quite a few on the market that don't work as well as advertised. I wanted to get to the bottom of it… and so I sought out a TOP authority.

In today's episode, you'll learn:

1. How to use PEMF for treatment for multiple illnesses and issues.
2. Tips to support optimized health, and how different PEMF frequencies work in the body.
3. How to choose a PEMF device that will work well for you and your health needs.

Joel Greene is the founder of the VEEP Nutrition System. Launched in 2009, VEEP is the world's first nutrition program based on the gut biome. Joel has consulted with billion dollar nutrition companies like Quest Nutrition on complex problems like engineering food to extend lifespan. He is the author of The Immunity Code - a new approach to immune-centric health.

When it comes to the content that I consume, I gravitate toward the experts and thought leaders who are saying something DIFFERENT...

The individuals who take a somewhat contrarian approach to health can be challenging to find, but are often right on target - when so many others are missing the mark. Joel Greene immediately drew my attention when I discovered his unique approach to ​nutrition and life optimization.​​​

1. The #1 Reason to do Cardio
2. How Your Gut Health Effects Weight Loss
