 ------------------------------------------ Listener Q&A [38:00]: 

As compiled, deciphered, edited and sometimes read by Brock Armstrong, the Podcast Sidekick. Why You Get Constipated & What To Do About It 

Kelly says: She has been taking probiotics for about 6 months now and she still has major stomach issues. Every vegetable that she eats just ferments in her stomach without digesting and "going through". She even tried taking laxatives to push things along with no luck. Is she taking too much? What probiotics should she be taking?  In my response, I recommend: -My "Ultimate Fix For Constipation" hidden document How To Get By On Less Sleep 

Bruno says: He usually gets about 8 hours of sleep per night and feels great but he is wondering if it is possible to get less sleep (like 6 hours per night) and still feel as good as he does now? Are there any special supplements, food or protocols that will help him feel this good but on less sleep?  In my response, I recommend: -My God Pill article -Polyphasic sleep how-to -My podcast with Michael Breus -Third Wave psychedelics How To Use SARMs MK-677 and RAD-140 

Grizzell says: She is wondering is the SARMs MK-677 and RAD-140 would be useful for her 87-year-old father? How could they benefit an older man? She is also curious if they could help her.  In my response, I recommend: -My article on "How To Use MK-677 and RAD-140" -Aggressive Strength -Estrogen Control Wim Hof vs. Buteyko 

Bryan says: Could you compare Wim Hof's breathing method to the Buteyko method (as described by Patrick Mckeown)? Which do you prefer and which is best for long term gains for health and life?  In my response, I recommend: -My podcast with "Oxygen Advantage" author Buteyko -My podcast with Wim Hof
