Featured Topic: He Healed His Mom's Lung Cancer Using Diet, Nutrition & Detox...
Dr. Josh Axe is a wellness physician and radio show host. He is on a mission to change the face of health in Nashville and around the world. He watched as his mother battled breast cancer in the early 90s, undergoing chemotherapy and a mastectomy. When she was diagnosed with lung cancer in 2004, Dr. Josh knew those procedures would never give his mom her health back.
They needed a new approach - the approach he had been using to get thousands of people well from all kinds of chronic diseases at his Exodus Health Center. This all-natural approach using diet, nutrition, detoxification, peace building and spinal correction allowed her body to heal from within. Following the advice and guidance of her son, Mrs. Axe is now in complete remission and currently in the best shape of her life. During our interview, I ask Josh:

Listener Q&A:
======================================
[contact-form 3 "AskBen"]
======================================
chunkybearcub asks via twitter: @bengreenfield do u take anything before ur fasted am workout and how do they affect the fast? bcaas, l-carnitine, coffee, beta-alanine.
Jason asks: I have been tracking my weight, body fat % and muscle mass on a Taylor Scale and after hitting a low point 29.1% my body fat has started to go up, even though I'm eating at or below my Basal Metabolic Rate. Can body fat % on a scale fluctuate a couple of %? Or do I need to start modifying my diet?
Nick asks: To get my cycle miles up for the tri season I want to cycle to work. It is about 35 miles each way and will mean that I need to leave home at about 6 am. I was wondering what nutrition I should be looking to take on board immediately before and during the cycle .
Kelcey asks: I have been reading about EMS systems and thought I'd see if you would enlighten me on them. There are several different models and features (of course the more expensive models have more features and it seems like more powerful programs). They can get pretty pricey. Are they beneficial for injuries, recovery and/or warm-ups? Is it hard to place the electrodes? Does it take a lot of time? (I am already too busy). Are the more expensive models worth the extra money? I have been plagued by injuries this past season, although my physical therapist or my chiropractor have not specifically suggested that I get one, perhaps for this reason.
In my response to Kelcey, I mention podcast episode #71 about electrical stimulation devices.
Joel asks: My problem, if you can call it that, is that when I train I shed weight. I am thin and lean by genetics and even if I up my caloric intake, the high volume endurance and interval work drops my body fat real low. How can I compensate?
In my response to Joel, I mention the book Holistic Fueling for Ironman Triathletes and I also mention gut testing for nutritional malabsorption, available by clicking here.
Kyle asks: Ben, this summer I am planning on doing the equivalent of three Ironmans in a one week period, with the run portion on the last two days being an ultra marathon that I have yet to choose. I am a vegan. Any tips for recovery between the times when I am swimming/biking/running? Nutrition, stretching, compression, ice, etc.
The amino acids Ben recommends.
In my response to Kyle, I mention Recoverease and amino acid intake.
Josh asks: You mention a variety of supplements on your podcasts -- amino acids to fish oils to magnesium to coenzyme q10 to living greens to many many others. Would you be willing to list ALL the supplements you take and what each one is for?
In my response to Josh, I mention this supplements page, Pill Popping Podcast #10, and this supplements video post at the Rock Star Triathlete Academy: http://www.rockstartriathlete.com/rock-star-supplements/ I also tell Josh about Bionx and this video with Mark Allen.
John asks: You mentioned on one of your podcasts that you don't eat 2 hours before bed and don't eat before you work out in the morning. As I tried this (during my morning workout)I was listening to Getfitguy where you mentioned that you should eat before you workout. I'm just wondering which I should do?
Dave asks: I am a 44 year old triathlete. Up until recently I have done the majority of my running in the morning. I have now joined a group that does training on the track in the evening. For my morning runs pre run nutrition has not been a issue. Usually an energy bar or smoothie 1-2 hours previous seems to fuel my runs and cause no GI distress. Now I am faced with running after a day of eating. I am unsure of what foods to avoid during the day of the track workout and how to time my pre run fuel. I find myself caught between not enough and too much food. I have a sensitive stomach and am prone to G.I. distress. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
In my response to both John and Dave, I refer to this article about what to eat before and after a workout: the Post Workout Nutrition Debate.
Mark asks: I am just finishing my level 1 triathlon coaches course in Australia, i would like run a full time coaching business online - any tips. In my response to Mark, I mention my website http://www.triathloncoachguide.com
