Podcast Questions:
1. Fermented Beet Juice? [25:44]
Joe says:
Robb,
Been a huge fan forever!!! In my quest to play super dad into my 40's I have taken to eating a lot of fermented veggies. For a ton of reasons including flavor, taste, texture and convenience I like to make my own mixes in glass jars. Lately I have fallen into a beet and green cabbage mix. I was wondering if the fermented beet/kraut juice packed the same blood flow benefits through the nitrate mechanism claimed by beet supplements?
BTW its as really simple and fun process. Get a jar. Shred the cabbage and beets with whatever is handy. Sprinkle in salt. Pound the mix into a jar after it sits about 30 minutes. Let time do its thing. I like a 3 week sit. If you want it "kruatier" wait longer! As it sits as long as the mix is below the brine things should turn out pleasant!
I also do a kimche style kraut that is bananas!
Looking forward to your response and thanks for all you do!
Joe

2. Genetic Test for Stroke or Neurological Disease? [28:58]
Chad says:
Quick question- is there genetic test to indicate if stroke or other neurological disease (white brain matter disease) are more likely in certain people. If someone has a family history of strokes, what can you do for wellness to reduce or prevent a stroke.

3. Salt and high blood pressure [35:05]
Scott says:
Hey Robb and Nicki: Love the Podcast. I’m a longtime Healthy Rebellion / Paleo Solution listener going back to the early days. My wife and I own Hammock Coast CrossFit and we are big fans of LMNT and use it frequently especially in the heat of the summer here on the South Carolina coast (Pawleys Island). (My wife’s favorite is the chocolate flavor over frozen berries and chocolate Muscle Milk for a deaert EVERY night !)
Got an electrolyte question for you though. Doctor Rick Johnson was recently on Peter Attia’s “The Drive” podcast. They discussed how fructose drives metabolic disease. Layered in there he says salt can be a really bad player in this too drive up blood pressure. I know there is nuance here but it’s beyond my level. We recommend LMNT and electrolytes to our athletes some of which may have metabolic disease and therefore hypertension. Should we be more careful about recommending this?Would love you perspective.
Thanks and keep up the Salty Talk!
