81. Increase energy and lower inflammation with this potent combination.
There is a lot of research to note about hydrogen (H2) and it’s positive benefits. We also know that Nitric oxide production in the body is highly beneficial for energy, aging well, feeling good, looking good etc. What happens when we combine H2 and Nitric Oxide? Every thought of that? I hadn’t until I med Shelli Ruppman-Kranz. There is a very special biological response that takes place when these two elements are combined because H2 helps drive Nitric oxide into the system as well as increase the duration of Nitric Oxide production in our biological systems. I got to interview Shelli Ruppman-Kranz who is one of the co-founders of H2 Beverage. H2 Beverage makes these potent little drinks called Hydro Shots. I don’t drink many pr- made beverages. It’s quite rare actually. Although, I have one Hydro Shot almost daily! Why? There are numerous studies on hydrogen’s benefits as well as Nitric oxide: studies done on: Bone, brain, cancer, heart, energy, kidney, liver, lung, pain etc… Check out these studies and more at: https://h2bev.com/pages/articles I can’t wait for you to listen to this episode so that you can increase your awareness into how to optimize your energy production in a healthy way that is sustainable for the long term as well as age smarter.

There is one other potent shot I’ve recently added to the mix. This drink contains H2 and L-citrulline. 08:30 Hydrogen acts like a transporter for nitric oxide. The benefits = more blood flow to the brain and body 10:14 Claims about supplements and the industry. 11:18 Why H2 is beneficial in our bodies. What is Hydrogen Water? It is water that contains dissolved hydrogen gas. The water is still water, but is now enriched with hydrogen gas. What is Molecular Hydrogen? Molecular hydrogen consists of two hydrogen atoms that are chemically bonded together. Each hydrogen atom contains 1 proton and 1 electron. The hydrogen atoms combine together to form molecular hydrogen, which is a gas. 12:22 L-citrulline and H2 is where the magic happens in the body; it’s a potent anti inflammatory remedy. 14:10 Why this drink is great for keto diets/ no crash/ no jittery side effects. 17:52 Performance, recovery + less oxidation are the results 22:17 The Tracy Duhs travel diet. 25:42 How to slow down the biological aging process.

79. Learn how to read labels and choose healthy supplements.
I had a lot of fun rapping with Illie or as you may call her @healthIllie. Illie founded Live Heathillie after years of struggling with common symptoms like bloating, migraines, eczema, acne, fatigue and more. Although common, she knew they weren't normal and I was eager to get to the source. She started her fitness journey at the age of 20 and worked in some of New York's most well respected gyms. She was physically fit, counted calories/macros and enjoyed life. Not too long later at the age of 23, She started noticing her health taking a turn. Suffering from chronic migraines, hormonal acne, terrible bloating after every meal, heavy painful periods, eczema on her face and legs, the list goes on. She went to endless doctors and specialists and every single one wanted to put her on medication, topical steroids, antibiotics - you name it. After being neglected by doctors for years, Illie decided to do her own research into holistic practices. She soon realized she was being exposed to hundreds of environmental toxins, endocrine disruptors and gut irritators in her everyday products and her body couldn’t keep up. Products she trusted to contribute to her health, like protein, candles, skincare and teas, were riddled with plastics, gums, unknown additives, fillers and more. After searching the internet high and low for trusted sites to buy cleaner swaps, Illie found herself ordering from so many different sites, she really wanted one place for everything and Live Healthillie was soon born. As a holistic health coach and certified personal trainer, Illie is passionate about health and will always advocate for the cleanest ingredients.
