475: Spark Your Sexy Confidence: Insider Tips with Dating Coach Kimmy Seltzer

Have you ever tasted something so good, so fresh that you can never go back to your old ways of eating? That's how I feel about olive oil. And today, I'm excited to share this culinary revelation with you for just $1. But let me take you back to where it all began.
The first time I went to Italy, I experienced fresh olive oil for the first time. It wasn't that I had never tasted olive oil before in the States, but the difference was profound. I was savoring olive oil made fresh from olives grown on the property we were staying at, in Ravello, off the Amalfi coast. It was an unforgettable experience, and I knew I couldn't go back to store-bought olive oil, so I ended up shipping six bottles of it home.
The same thing happened to T. J. Robinson, also known as the Olive Oil Hunter. He also had a transformative encounter with olive oil in Italy. He discovered that olive oil packs the most flavor and health benefits when it's fresh from the farm. That's the issue with typical supermarket olive oils—they lack freshness, sitting on shelves for months and growing stale.
Known for his “platinum palate,” T. J. is one of the few Americans invited to serve as a judge in prestigious Italian olive oil tasting competitions and he knew he was the one to solve this problem. And so he did! That's when Fresh-Pressed Olive Oil Club was born.
And now you and I get to experience this olive oil from small, award-winning farms, thanks to T. J., our guest on today's Food Heals podcast. When I tasted T. J.'s farm-fresh oils, I fell in love with their vibrant, grassy flavors. They elevate salads, veggies, pasta, and make exquisite salad dressings.
Today, T. J. is dedicated to importing rare fresh-pressed olive oil, the most flavorful and healthiest extra virgin olive oil available. Until now, obtaining such quality year-round in the U.S. has been nearly impossible. Rest assured, all of T. J.'s oils are independently lab-tested and certified for 100% purity.
The freshness, flavor, and health benefits of this just-pressed oil will astonish you ... it will utterly blow away any olive oil you can find in the U.S. And that’s for one simple reason: This is fresh-pressed supreme extra virgin olive oil—raced here by jet straight from the olive harvest and it's independently certified to be 100% pure extra virgin.
As an introduction to his Fresh-Pressed Olive Oil Club, T. J. offers a remarkable opportunity. For just $1, you can receive a full-size $39 bottle of one of the world's finest artisanal olive oils—fresh from the new harvest. This offer isn't tied to any commitment to purchase anything, now or ever.

474: The Art of Olive Oil: Maximizing Nutrition, Freshness, and Flavor with T.J. Robinson

Weed killers like Roundup are literally killing us by poisoning our farmers and our food supply and the same company that makes the poison makes the cure. (I'll take things that make you go hmm for 500, Alex!) Luckily the filmmakers behind the new documentary Common Ground are exposing it all and you can watch it live on Earth Day April 22nd. 
By fusing journalistic exposure with deeply personal stories from those on the front lines of the food movement, Common Ground unveils a dark web of money, power, and politics behind our broken food system. The film reveals how unjust practices forged our current farm system in which farmers of all colors are literally dying to feed us. I've got director Rebecca Tickell here today to tell us more about it.
A hopeful and uplifting story of the pioneers of the “Regenerative Movement” who produce tremendous quantities of nutritionally dense food and are working to balance the climate – all while bringing our entire ecosystem back to life. The film explores how Americans from different walks of life, different political backgrounds, and different parts of the country share one thing in common –the very soil beneath their feet.
The film investigates the power of “regenerative” farming systems –from large to small-scale farmers who are the champions of soil health as the key to unlocking more (and healthier) food to feed America and the world. Stars Laura Dern, Rosario Dawson, Ian Somerhalder, Jason Mamoa, Woody Harrelson, etc.
Common Ground is the highly anticipated sequel to the juggernaut success documentary, Kiss the Ground, which touched over 1 billion people globally and inspired the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) to put $20 billion toward soil health.The film profiles a hopeful and uplifting movement of white, black, and indigenous farmers who are using alternative “regenerative” models of agriculture that could balance the climate, save our health, and stabilize America’s economy – before it’s too late.

473: Common Ground: The Dark Web of Money, Power, and Politics Behind Our Broken Food System with Rebecca Tickell

Media, commercials, medspas and advertisements would have us believe that we need the latest facials, skincare, botox, filler and skin tightening lasers to anti-age ourselves and while I am no stranger to a facial, I would argue that anti-aging starts from within and that we have a lot more control over the cellular age of our bodies and our abilities to live longer stronger lives than we think we do.
Chronic diseases claim millions of lives prematurely each year, striking indiscriminately across the globe. The tragedy is compounded by the fact that many of these diseases are preventable, through changes in lifestyle, diet, detoxification, and fostering a positive mindset.
And supplementing what we are losing - doing what the biohackers do
One of these anti-aging bio hacks is NAD+.
NAD+—the elusive molecule often hailed as "the aging molecule"—holds profound sway over the trajectory of our aging process. Its decline with age is believed to underpin several key mechanisms of aging, from mitochondrial function to genetic repair and stem cell renewal. By maintaining or augmenting NAD+ levels, we have the potential to fortify the cellular processes that dictate how we age.
So for those of us who are intent on preventing chronic disease, healing our traumas and living long healthy lives well into our 90s and maybe even hundreds without regrets.. One of the solutions lies in bolstering our NAD+ levels. And that is what today's guest  Director of Product Development at Neurohacker Collective, and naturopath Dr. Gregory Kelly is here to discuss 
Enter Qualia NAD+: a multi-dimensional approach to NAD+ optimization that represents a quantum leap in the quest for longevity and vitality. With a meticulously crafted blend of NAD+ precursors and supporting ingredients, Qualia NAD+ offers a comprehensive strategy to enhance NAD+ production and support cellular health.
Three crucial precursors—NIAGEN® (NR), niacin, and niacinamide—form the backbone of Qualia NAD+, ensuring that your body has the necessary building blocks to synthesize NAD+ effectively. But it doesn't stop there. With an array of supporting ingredients—from organic coffeeberry to marine-derived magnesium and fermented B vitamins—Qualia NAD+ addresses the intricate web of factors that influence NAD+ metabolism and cellular energy production.
The results speak for themselves. In a pilot study at Neurohacker, participants experienced marked improvements in their Healthy Aging Scores, indicating enhanced physical health, emotional well-being, and sexual function. With an overwhelming majority expressing a desire to continue using Qualia NAD+, coupled with high ratings for product experience, the efficacy of this formulation is undeniable.
To boost YOUR NAD+ levels up to 50%, Go to neurohacker.com/FH for up to 50% off and use code FH at checkout for an additional 15% off. 
That’s neurohacker.com/FH  for an extra 15% off your purchase.
