Deep dives
Experimenting with Eating More Hearts
The speaker shares their recent experiment with incorporating more heart meat into their diet. They explain that heart meat is often overlooked despite its unique nutritional profile, distinct from peripheral muscle meat. They personally consume around 6 ounces of heart meat per day, often in the form of heart burgers. The speaker highlights the high riboflavin content in heart, discussing its importance for optimal metabolism and the potential benefits for individuals with MTHFR polymorphisms. They emphasize the superiority of obtaining nutrients from real food rather than relying on multivitamins.
Supplementing with Creatine
The podcast episode mentions the speaker's recent decision to supplement with creatine. They explain the numerous benefits of creatine supplementation, such as improved exercise performance, cognitive function, and muscle recovery. The speaker notes that creatine stores in the body can sometimes be suboptimal, especially for vegans and vegetarians. However, they clarify that individuals who consume a significant amount of meat may not require creatine supplementation. They also emphasize the affordability and safety of creatine supplementation.
Failed Experiment with Incorporating Rice and Potatoes
The speaker discusses their unsuccessful attempt to include rice and potatoes in their diet as additional sources of carbohydrates. Despite various preparation methods, including soaking and pressure cooking, the speaker experienced brain fog and overall discomfort after consuming these foods. They clarify that their personal experience doesn't diminish the potential benefits for others and highlight the importance of finding a carbohydrate source that works best for individual needs. The speaker reinforces the positive impact of carbohydrates on hormonal balance and debunks misconceptions surrounding fructose.
Experimenting with Methylation Supplements
The speaker delves into their experimentation with supplements related to methylation. They mention the challenges of methylated folate supplementation, noting that some individuals, including themselves, may experience adverse psychological effects. The speaker emphasizes the need for individualized approaches to methylation support, highlighting the potential benefits of other forms of folate and dietary sources like liver and eggs. They caution against the use of folic acid in supplementation and advocate for obtaining B vitamins from real food sources.
