August 28, 2019 Sex: What to Eat, How to Sleep & How to Exercise Your Way to Great Sex!
Let’s talk sex. How can you improve your sex drive?

There’s a ton of research proving the connection between what you eat and what goes on in your bedroom.

But what else can affect your sex drive, positively or negatively? And how can you get more bang for your buck, quite literally.

A low sex drive can be tough to deal with. It can lead to decreased interest in sex, friction in relationships, arguments, dissatisfaction, frustration.

I’ve personally experienced what can happen when someone loses their sex drive when they’re in a relationship. It leads to a lot of repressed needs, frustration with your partner and anger.

So listen to these tips and increase your sex drive with food, exercise, supplements, and other good health practices.

July 31, 2019 The Paleolithic Diet and Intermittent Fasting: What You Need to Know
Do you need to eat three meals a day? Does eating more, smaller meals speed up your metabolism? Is breakfast the most important meal of the day?

The answer to all of these questions is a big fat no. And I’ve got into tons of arguments about this, but stick around and you’ll know why I’m correct.

So, on this podcast we discuss paleolithic living, paleolithic eating, paleolithic exercise as well as intermittent fasting.

So going paleo means getting a little closer to nature, but not going full hippy. It starts with how you eat. So what can you eat and what can’t you eat? Also what should you know about intermittent fasting?

July 17, 2019 Keto Diet vs Low-Carb Diet vs Paleo Diet: Which Is the Right Diet For You?
On this episode of Vishnu Ki Secret Life we answer one of the most searched questions on the internet when it comes to health and fitness.

What diet should YOU follow?

We cover three popular diets on this podcast – The Keto Diet, The Low-Carb Diet and The Paleo Diet.

The ketogenic diet, or keto, is an almost zero-carb diet that focuses on high protein and high fat food. In simple terms, when you’re on a ketogenic diet, you eat almost no carbohydrates.

The Low-carb diet allows a low to moderate amount of carbohydrates in your diet, high protein, and moderate to low fat.

The paleo diet - Short for paleolithic, in one sentence, the paleo diet is eating like paleolithic man, or how a caveman would eat.

June 19, 2019 Sleep Hacks: Why You Can’t Get Good Sleep & How to Fix It
Getting inadequate sleep for even one night can affect your brain function. Getting inadequate sleep for many days together, turns your brain into a confused mess.

Simply eating right and sleeping well will make you healthier. On the other side of this coin is the fact that if you DON’T get enough quality sleep your fitness, your brain, your memory, and your appetite ALL go for a toss.

I know because I’ve messed around with my sleep quite a bit, getting too little, or, sometimes, getting the right amount.

On this podcast, we tell you why you should get good sleep, how to get good sleep, why you may be feeling exhausted despite sleeping a lot, and how to sleep really little, and still wake up feeling refreshed.

May 20, 2019 Nootropics: How L-Theanine Helped Me Cope With Anxiety
I experience anxiety often. If you’ve dealt with anxiety, you know the crippling effect it has on you. You’re always worried or uncertain, you have trouble making decisions, and it basically is a huge pain.

My anxiety is usually made worse because I drink a lot of coffee.

L-Theanine is a non-essential amino acid which is found in tea. Which means it’s not made naturally in your body, but you can get it from drinking tea. The ingredient in green tea that calms you down is L-Theanine!

On this podcast I'll walk you through how L-Theanine helped make me a more calm, centred person, and how you can supplement with L-Theanine to fight off anxiety.

Listen to the podcast for the full story on how L-Theanine helped me, and can help you!

May 07, 2019 Nutrition: I Ate Just Fat (No Protein or Carbs) For 2 Weeks And Lost 5 Kilos
In March 2013, I lost more than 5 kilos of weight in 2-3 weeks by eating ONLY fat. I didn’t step inside a gym for a single day of those three weeks, but I SHREDDED fat.
How? I went on a fat fast.
During a fat fast, you eat ONLY FAT. Almost no protein or carbohydrates. JUST FAT. The science behind it, is that since fat is so satiating, it’s hard to overeat it.
I started my fast on 3 March, 2013, and broke my fast on 19 March. I started my fast weighing around 87 kilograms. Two weeks later, I was down by 5-6 kilograms.
I looked up fat fasting and did my research on fat fasting from multiple online resources.
Disclaimer: Speak to your doctor before you do this. A fat fast is an extreme step, and should, under no circumstances, be done suddenly or without planning.

April 25, 2019 Smart Drugs: What I Learned From Modafinil
I first learned about Modafinil in 2012. It’s a prescription drug that’s commonly used to treat narcolepsy and a range of other issues including sleep disorders, and Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder. It’s also used, off prescription, as a ‘cognitive enhancer'.

I read a study that said Jet fighter pilots could function for up to 37 hours of continuous wakefulness, with a very small drop in baseline function on 100 milligram doses of Modafinil.

I tried Modafinil for the first time in law school. I’d kept delaying a number of previous exams, and one thing led to another, and eventually I had just two weeks to write 9 exams.
