Welcome to Ben Greenfield's Weekly Roundup and Cool New Discoveries!

Ben Greenfield's discoveries from the latest news from the fronts of fitness, nutrition, health, wellness, biohacking and anti-aging research. I also recap my upcoming events and special announcements so you can keep up with giveaways, discounts, and more!


New Discoveries Of The Week: Cool New Things I'm Trying, Books I'm Reading, And More!

Healthy “Vape” Pen I've Been “Smoking”:

OK, OK, this is not a vape pen per se, but rather an essential oil “inhaler” pen that is so simple and safe to use that even my kids are “taking hits” on peppermint essential oil before school. It's called a “FUM pen”. I've been taking hits on cinnamon and nutmeg for focus, lavender for relaxation, and peppermint for a pre-workout, lung and head-clearing effect. Studies have even shown that using a pen like this with black pepper essential oils can help get rid of smoking and nicotine cravings (for those of you who have been chomping on too much of that nicotine gum I recommended a few weeks ago). Plus, handcrafted just west of Calgary, AB, Canada, the thing just looks sexy and super functional. Get your pen here, and get your essential oils to go along with it here.  When you enter code BEN at checkout, you'll get free shipping on your pen in the U.S. and Canada when you spend $40 or more bones.

The Most Amazing Yogurt Ever:

Dr. William Davis, a leading cardiologist and the author of the brilliant book, “Undoctored“, has a free article on how to make a special strain of yogurt that heals the gut, shuts down appetite, increases collagen production for hair/skin/nails and even enhances production of the love hormone oxytocin. No joke. The stuff is super simple to make at home, and my boys and I have been making big ol' batches of the stuff for smoothies, salad dressing or just a treat all by itself. I modified his recipe and added a bunch of gelatin and vanilla stevia after making it, then refrigerated for an awesome creamy treaty. Read his article on how to make it here, and listen to my boys' podcast on it here.

Low-Calorie Drinks I've Been Enjoying:

I'm often asked what I turn to as low-calorie alternatives to sugary kombuchas, soft drinks or ways to keep the appetite satiated when water is just, too…boring. Here are my favorites:

Featured Product:

Evidence for the heart and brain health benefits from omega-3 fish oil is undeniable.* But LivingFuel SuperEssentials® Omega 3EDA+ does not stop there. It is far more than just fish oil; it is a sophisticated Antioxidant Essential Fatty Acids supplement and it’s ideal for the entire family.

Conventional fish oil supplements contain significantly more EPA than DHA (typically a 3:2 EPA:DHA ratio), but SuperEssentials® Omega 3EDA+ contains additional DHA that gives it a 1:1 EPA:DHA ratio. Mounting research suggests that higher levels of DHA are optimal for human health, supporting the new 1:1 ratio.

Not all fish oils are created equal. The best quality Omega-3 fats like those in SuperEssentials® Omega 3EDA+ come from small fish like sardines and anchovies that thrive in cold waters. Unfortunately, many of the supplements lining the aisles of health food stores contain inexpensive fish oils from large fish that swim in suspect waters. Plus, they often contain fillers and synthetic materials that can rob the body of nutrition. Order it here.

*The FDA hasn't evaluated these statements. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.

    Hello ben, a bit of a random question but what is your thoughts on “Retin A” topical ointment for anti aging? It seems to be pretty agreed upon that it is a safe and effective treatment (at least from what I have seen). Surely someone as interested and well versed in anti aging therapy would have some opinion. I would love to hear your thoughts! Thanks!

    1. Many Retin-A products contain hormone disruptors and other dangerous ingredients.
