Good ‘ol Palmbergs. And they have them do a three-week experiment where they simply switch everything that they were eating and they were eating quite a bit of conventional food. They switched everything to organic and then they did urine samples each day. And the results were actually pretty shocking when you look at the chart and you can visit the article you know, I’ll put a link at bengreenfieldfitness.com/317. The urine samples in the beginning showed almost every single pesticide that you’d find growing on you know, typical non-organic produced meat, etc. in their urine and afterwards, it did all completely disappeared. All of these harmful pesticides was kind of interesting you know, there have been similar experiments with things like personal care products like phthalates and parabens and shampoos and how they show up in your urine as few as three hours after.
article that was in the Telegraph about whether or not WIFI is making your child ill. What is happened in France is they’ve actually banned WiFi in nursery schools and in primary schools and this article was primarily an interview with a British expert in children’s health and wireless radiation who has been giving up the use of wireless gadgets and trying to create a movement in schools to do things like you know, hard wired into router via the internet cables rather than having WiFi you know, bouncing around the school. And the article is chockfull of all these again, not pure of good research, but anecdotal evidence of these children with migraines and headaches and behavioral issues, all of which began to arise in conjunction with which is to WiFi or the use of the new library that had a lot of routers and WiFi signals going around in it and so it’s really interesting. A few other anecdotes that caught my eye was first of all, Lloyds of London – the major insure Lloyds of London – will no longer include liability coverage for injuries resulting from electromagnetic fields, electromagnetic radiation, electromagnetism, radio waves or noise meaning that children who were exposed to any of these things that basically what the insurance company is realizing is that even though there may not be hard evidence, there’s no ______ [0:12:56.6] evidence out there to where they’re not even comfortable covering those type of injuries. The International Agency for Research on Cancer has now classified the electromagnetic radiation as a group to be carcinogen, and all that means is this is a possible cause of cancer so they can’t come out and say it’s a carcinogen, but we can say it’s possibly a carcinogen. Which I would certainly agree with based on just the evidence and in terms of things like blood brain barrier leakage and in rodents exposed to not just WiFi, but also Bluetooth. And the other interesting thing in this article was a quote from a scientist and he says, “We’re living in an environment estimated to contain more than ten billion times more electromagnetic radiation or radiofrequency wireless radiation – you know, from phones and routers, and things like that – than we did in the 60s.” And he says, “If this environment is safe, we’re talking about any order of 15,000 to 25,000 papers in peer reviewed scientific journals all being wrong.” Meaning that he is actually aware of you know, these thousands of papers that showed there are some issues with RF radiation. So it’s a… you know, it’s something I’m very careful with my kids and the kids have very thin schools, they have high water content, they can absorb a lot more radiation. Their neurons or cells are dividing more rapidly and I just think not only for adults but especially for kids, this is something that we should pay attention to.

-You know, whether you can get the same amount of benefit out of doing a high amount of reps throughout the day vs. like a one a day really focused, hard workout. There’s actually a really good video about this. I don’t know if you’ve seen this video, Brock, it’s called “The Truth About Exercise”?So it’s about finding balance and not doing a formal exercise set to failure every single day of the week but at least having a couple times a week where you do push your muscles to failure more than what you do if you were say, spreading things out throughout the day. So, there you go.

a very accurate way to determine how many calories you’re burning each day at rest: just sitting around – that’s your resting metabolic rate – is to take the number twelve and to multiply that by your lean body mass. So your lean body mass would be basically everything that’s left over when you subtract the fat, if you would strip all the fat off your body. So let’s say that you body fat percentage is a 10% – And you weigh a 180 lbs. then that would mean that 18 lbs. of you is fat, right? If you’re 10% body fat. So your lean body mass or your fat-free mass would be a 180 lbs minus 18 which would be a 162 lbs. So you would take 12 and you would multiply that by your lean body mass which would be a 162 lbs. in this case. And then you add 2 times your fat mass and we know that your fat mass, in this case, if you’re a 10% body fat would be that same 18 lbs. So 2 times your fat mass would be 36, 12 times your lean body mass would be whatever 12 times a 162 is, and you’ll come up with a number. Let’s – I’m just gonna say on top of my head that number is about 1800 or so. That is 1800 calories as your resting metabolic rate. Getfitguy.com
-number one way to tell if your meat is grass finished: the fat will be yellow. Grain-fed beef actually has a thick white layer of fat, but because the fat is higher in omega 3 fatty acids and conjugated linoleic acids and things of that nature, the fat is yellow in grass-fed beef. The next thing is the meat will be tougher.

-How Salads are prepared
" the washed, ready-to-eat salads, those are actually cleaned by sloshing them around in tap water that’s dosed with chlorine, often with a powdered or liquid fruit acids to inhibit bacterial growth. And though usually used the same tank of treated water for up to eight hours at a time to chlorinate your washed and ready to eat salads and even when the natural flavorings, when you see natural flavorings on a label, there really isn’t much difference in the chemical composition of a natural versus an artificial flavor."
-Small amount of radiation is good for you?
"In effect that low dose radiation may actually help with things like genetic repair and preventing tissue damage, and a lot of other benefits – it’s really, really interesting. So the idea behind this, in this idea that a low dose of a bad thing can have good effects is called hormesis, and we’ve talked about a little bit on the show before I mean, we’re talking about cold, right? And cold is a form of stress that in high amounts will kill you, were at least severely inhibit your physiological potential and your ability to talk and have natural biological function exercise."
..Alright, so let’s jump in into some of the things that can help out with radiation. One is Nascent Iodine, calcium and magnesium. DMSO,bee pollen, beets, brewers yeast, organic geranium
