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

As compiled, deciphered, edited and sometimes read by Brock Skywalker Armstrong, the Podcast Sidekick and Audio Ninja. Is Bulletproof Coffee A Scam? 

Trevor says: He is curious what your thoughts are on the recent article "Butter In Your Coffee and Other Cons: Stories From a Fitness Insider". It talks about a lot of folks who you've discussed on your show, like the Food Babe, Dave Asprey and John Kiefer, and things like Bulletproof Coffee and Carb Backloading being scams. What do you think? Any recommendations for us to dig through the confusion?  In my response, I recommend: -Mark's Daily Apple "Link Love" -Chris Kresser's "The RoundUp" -Alan Aragon's Research Review -Examine's Research Digest -Stone Hearth Newsletters Health, Medical & Science Updates -Suppversity -Perfect Health Diet blog The Best Anti-Aging Exercises 

Bill says: He climbs a mountain (3500-5000 feet) nearly every weekend. Plus he carries a 20.5lbs pack. He is 70 years old and has had some injuries (knee problems and tore his quad last year). Do you think that is a good form of exercise? *he also asks about Cool Fat Burner Vest - we'll direct him to old episodes*  In my response, I recommend: -CoolFatBurner.com -Incline Treadmill The Most Natural Way To Clean Countertops 

Bradley says: He and his wife use the Method All Purpose Natural Surface Cleaner to clean their countertops. Is this a safe thing to use to clean or is there a better option out there?  In my response, I recommend: -My How To Detox Your Home article -The EWG's consumer guides website -Oil of oregano Can You Use Dried Herbs In A Smoothie? 

Aleksi says: He is wondering if he could use dried herbs to make his own greens drink.  In my response, I recommend: -This month's Inner Circle Healthy Home workshop herb drying course Should You Use Nasal Breathing When You Race? 

Theresa says: She has been training for a marathon using nasal breathing alone. It was hard at first but then it got easier and easier and she has noticed that she has more energy, especially in her long runs. When she actually races the Chicago Marathon, should she incorporate mouth breathing to get even more air or should she continue with 100% nasal?  In my response, I recommend: -Breathe Right nasal strips -Rhinomed turbine nasal dilator -My previous podcast episode with John Douillard
