Hi – Can you give the portions and brands of the coffee enema ingredients, particularly the probiotic and butyrate?
This should help: https://bengreenfieldfitness.com/article/digestio…
Hi I recently listened to your podcast with Jay shetty and I really enjoyed it.
As someone who struggles with sleep, it was a great episode to listen to.
I’d love to try some of the things you said you use for sleep. I couldn’t find them online ..maybe I was spelling them wrong.
Are you able to tell me those apps and devices you use ?
For example the hack b ? Or neurocall?
Thank you !
Hi Joseph! I think you're referring to the Hapbee (bengreenfieldfitness.com/hapbee) but this article is "The Last Resource On Sleep You’ll Ever Need" https://bengreenfieldfitness.com/article/the-last… I recently published a link to an interesting story on the link between a culturally-consistent diet and sleep: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34420524/
