Listener Q&A: [36:55] As compiled, deciphered, edited and sometimes read by Brock Armstrong, the Podcast Sidekick.
Cold Therapy vs. Cryotherapy vs. Cold Thermogenesis Ashleigh says: Can I get some (or most) of the benefits of real cold therapy by just going outside on my balcony in -20 degrees celsius, in slippers and not much else… or will I just get cold? I have done cold water immersion (at an XPT event in Montach) and am convinced of the benefits but am looking for a more practical way of doing that in my condo.
In my response, I recommend: -Recovery following a marathon: a comparison of cold water immersion, whole body cryotherapy and a placebo control. -The Effectiveness of Whole Body Cryotherapy Compared to Cold Water Immersion: Implications for Sport and Exercise Recovery -Recovery From Exercise-Induced Muscle Damage: Cold-Water Immersion Versus Whole-Body Cryotherapy. -Tapping The Power of Cold to Lose Weight -Cold Temps For A Hot Body -CoolFatBurner and CoolGutBuster What To Do About Liver Issues & High GGT Beau says: I have had lab tests done over the past three years and my GGT is consistently elevated (around 110-111). Besides glutathione supplementation, what are some other supplements that lower GGT? What else can I do aside from cutting out alcohol and increasing antioxidants? I am concerned about this since GGT has been linked to more than just liver disease. (Another caller asked what you, Ben, are doing about your liver issues that were found when you visited the Human Garage?)
In my response, I recommend: -Pharmanac -Liposomal Glutathione -Intranasal…
