February 25, 2024February AMA- From essential oils to the Carnivore Diet
Questions asked and answered in our February AMA:
I’m having trouble with my sleep schedule and it's affecting my morning workouts. Do you have tips for helping change/regulate sleep cycles and energy levels?

What do you think of essential oils? My friends diffuse them because there seems to be a lot of health benefits. Does it really work or is it just a scam?

Do you guys consider eating a protein bar a good idea? If so, is there a certain bar that you would recommend? If not, how do I up my protein?

Can eating too much protein cause gout?

Is a carnivore diet healthy? What vitamins and nutrients are missing?

How do you connect oneself with more growth mindset oriented people when that’s not the norm?

How does stress affect your ability to maintain as well as lose weight?
