 ----------------------------------------------------- Listener Q&A: 

As compiled, deciphered, edited and sometimes read by Brock Skywalker Armstrong, the Podcast Sidekick and Audio Ninja. How To Get Kids To Grow As Tall As Possible 

Tony says: He is wondering if you know of any tips, nutrition advice or biohacks that can help his 14-year-old son reach his full height potential. He has become quite the athlete and wants to play football in high school.  In my response, I recommend: -Deep Nutrition by Cate Shanahan -Kids Liquid Multivitamin -Smarty Pants Kids Multivitamin What To Do About Snapping Hip Syndrome 

Tyler says: He has what is called "Snapping Hip Syndrome." Basically, when he is laying on his back and he lowers his left leg, just before the foot meets the ground he hears a loud clunking sound. He also has limited movement in his psoas which causes his opposite hip to overcompensate when he does any long distances. What would you do to help or release this impingement issue in his hip... he already does the usual smashing and stretching religiously.    How To Handle House Guests Who Don't Eat Healthy 

Carrie says: She wants to know how you and Jessa handle having house guests who don't share the same dietary concerns and habits as you. She is finding it harder and harder to cook for other people. She gets tired of telling house guests to bring things like juice, bread, a toaster and that sort of stuff when they come to visit.  In my response, I recommend: -The book Never Eat Alone -The book Mastermind Dinners Can Ketosis Cause Dental Plaque? 

Will says: He likes to keep himself in mild ketosis because it helps with his ADHD and other things but he has noticed that he is getting a lot more dental plaque. Is that related to ketosis or is he imagining things?  In my response, I recommend: -WaterPik 5 Ways To Naturally Fuel For A Soccer Match 

Julian says: He is wondering how you would fuel for a soccer match. Any supplements or gels? UCAN? The game has 2 x 45min halves and a 20 minute  half time. He knows you talk a lot about triathlon fueling but what about field sports? Football or even basketball?  In my response, I recommend: -Frequent glycolytic surges combined with rapid fueling... -Chia seeds + honey + sea salt in water bottle (prefer coconut water). -Natural Force Raw Tea before, Iskiate Endurance during and Recovery after. “BEN10” will get you 10% off all supplements there. -UCAN + MCT oil + amino acids + electrolytes as described in this post. -Fat based energy gels at 1-2/hour. -"Acceptable" energy bar (e.g. Onnit Hemp Force,BonkBreaker, Hammer - 15% discount code 80244 at HammerNutrition.com, Epic Bar, Pemmican, etc.).
