In bygone times, there were traveling healers called "quack doctors" who would peddle potions and curealls from town to town. Quacks were looked down upon for...well...poisoning lots people with mercury.
But also for being empirical above any rational explanations, like humors and blood letting. So when they weren't using mercury, these traveling quacks discovered bottom up health solutions through trial and error. This podcast is about finding health solutions in the strangest places, even if they don't make sense

Ep. 91 Using Glabrous Skin Cooling Will Increase Muscle Performance More Than Anabolic Steroids
Hey Everyone,
Did you know that you can increase your exercise performance by 40, 50, even 60% by just using cooling properly? I didn’t until recently.
In this episode I discuss Craig Heller’s fascinating research into body temperature regulation using very simple techniques.
I also talk about HRV and how it can be used to evaluate your life, like whether you are over exercising or even on the wrong diet
