Episode notes

There is some rhetoric out there that simply because these plants contain what we call defense compounds, that they shouldn't or they can't be part of an optimal diet. At all. It's complete another nonsense. This is about the dose making a poison. Right. So if you were to eat a ludicrous amount of this stuff in a concentrated form, then it could have a negative effect. But the amount of plants that we consume, they have hermetic effects. And so we know. The danger when you take a compound and you isolate it and you take it as a supplement. Like we're seeing that for a number of things,. which would appear to be pretty good in anti-aging
