[00:00:01] So, Eric, what does you want to get out of your diet?
[00:00:07] The first thing that comes to mind when I hear diet is that I really don’t like the bird. I don’t like the word diet either, because it seems like it’s a project of some type. Yeah. How do I die in it? What word Montebourg would you prefer? So what would you like to get out of? I’m just go simple. The food I’m eating.
[00:00:28] And for that matter, drinking would. I’d like to get out of the food I’m eating.
[00:00:34] I’d like to get energy focus. A long life health. Whatever health means. And I’d like to look at. I like to look good. Yeah, I think those are the kind of five main things I’d like to get out of the food I’m eating.
[00:00:54] That makes a lot of sense at shadows..
[00:00:57] Yeah.
[00:00:58] And we started talking about this, you and I probably three years ago and since that we were in Africa and I remember you laughed at my breakfast, I was having pancakes and you’re like, Eric, eat pancakes for breakfast. So why?
[00:01:16] And since then you’ve given me all of these, like, tricks to get more energy and be more healthy. And I basically just done them without really understanding what they are.
[00:01:32] So I’m excited to do this podcast episode to go over these different life hacks from food, health, energy perspective that I’ve been doing for a couple of years and never understanding. So that’s what this episode will be about.
[00:01:49] That is what this is about. And if you’re new here, I’m speaking with Eric Burgmann, who is the founder of Great. He is a serial entrepreneur, a good friend of mine. And I think you have the perspective that many entrepreneurs have. I want to get energy and the benefits, but I don’t really have all that much time to go into the nitty gritty details about health. So we’ve tried to make this as simple as I can.
[00:02:19] I appreciate that. And I’m here with Emil, who is the first person joining me in. Great. At my very smart friend. But more than anything today, the biggest health nerd I know, someone who actually I don’t know how many thousands of hours of reading and YouTube videos he’s been watching on this topic. And he tends to come with what I consider to be weird ideas. And then they turn out to be smart and working. So I’m excited to hear more about the background stories of these things, not only tried to things that are working and and together we are doing these becoming great podcasts.
[00:03:02] And the purpose of why we’re doing this is to help and give inspiration to entrepreneurs who wants to make the world a better place.
[00:03:13] And in this podcast, we do different kinds of episodes for. Actually, one kind. It’s about our organization, great dot com, a company that would give away 100 percent of its profits to charity. One type of pot costs that would do is about personal development and life hack. And this episode about health definitely falls into the category of life hacks. One type of episode we do is to help entrepreneurs talk about business. And the fourth kind are episode that is about Eric Burgmann and his journey in business and life and relationships and whatnot. Did I miss something there?
[00:04:00] Erin, I think just summarize it well for some extra context here.
[00:04:06] We’ve just been talking to some real podcast professionals and their feedback to us was, hey, guys, you need to be more structured. Needs to be clearer what you’re talking about. You’re talking about so many things at the same time.
[00:04:18] So from now on, we will be structured like a job. MONTAGNE Yeah.
[00:04:27] Yeah. So let’s jump into this. Let’s do okay. So one of the things you’ve been talking about over the last couple of years is fasting.
[00:04:37] And I think that this is crazy. And I know that you haven’t eaten for seven days. What’s up about you’re in this cabin in the forest. And when you started talking to me before we did as particles like, yeah, I haven’t eaten for seven days. I just want to cozy up in the couch, eat some ginger bread and watch some Christmas show. It’s like, why are you putting yourself through this?
[00:05:03] Well, the explanation is very simple. I want to live longer than you so I can take over. Great. And instead of donated money to charity, I would build a huge golden statue in my own honor.
[00:05:17] I see. And that you will do from fasting. Yes, I think you’ll need to break it down a little bit more.
[00:05:24] Ok. So longevity is definitely big. My biggest reason for doing this. And.
[00:05:33] Well, when you say longevity, what do you mean?
[00:05:36] I mean living for a long time and living for a long time in my head, I get the image laying longer in the hospital bed at the end of my life feeling miserable.
[00:05:47] But what I mean is that I want to slow down my biological aging, meaning that I want to have an older body later in my life.
[00:06:00] Ok. So you want to slow down your aging, basically, meaning that when you’re 70, you will hopefully have the body of a 50 year old?
[00:06:10] Exactly. That’s precisely right.
[00:06:13] Again, how does that add in to fasting? What does fasting do with this?
[00:06:17] So imagine that your body is acidic and us, says decision-maker is the governor of the city. Now you can choose to do a lot of different things. You can, and if you eat, that is kind of like your SIDOR is building new things, building new roads, building new houses, maybe going out in war and conquering another territory. But when you don’t eat, your body goes into Khalifah maintainence work. You spend your energy on collecting garbage and energy into hospitals. And when we were back in the old days before civilization, we didn’t eat three times per day and necessarily always. So there was time for the body to get into this maintainence system that has a fancy name that I would not use, say the fancy word autophagy.
[00:07:16] It’s called tout of a body cleaning up itself.
[00:07:19] Okay, that makes sounds. Basically, when we put food into our bodies, our body turned that food into energy or into cells or into things.
[00:07:28] It works with that food. Exactly. And if we don’t put it into our food, our body can instead focus on other things.
[00:07:37] Yes. So autophagy gets activated gradually and it starts to kick in after about 16 hours without food. And then your body goes into maintainance and it’s clearing up cells. It removes garbage and removes toxins. And get that out of your system.
[00:07:55] Ok. So you have told me about intermittent fasting or if that’s actually, you know, my fiance had started doing that. And that touches on what you said.
[00:08:05] I was 16 hours. So what I’m doing. I’ve I’ve never gone seven crazy days without food. I’m still gonna call you crazy. You just have to do that. I’m not I’m not convinced enough.
[00:08:16] It’s not necessary to do that. No. But what does my funding look? Projects.
[00:08:20] Here’s what I’m doing is Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, I stop eating at eight o’clock the day before and I don’t eat until 12:00. The day after giving me this gap of 16 hours. And I’ve heard that if I do this for three times a week, that’s almost as good as doing it everyday. Does this make sense or is this just something I’m making up for myself?
[00:08:47] That’s makes a lot of sense. And if it’s working for you, then that is fantastic. I can’t know if it’s working until I’m 70 and feeling like 50. That is true. So how do you feel today?
[00:09:00] I feel very good, but I have an idea of that’s depending on intermittent fasting or something else.
[00:09:06] How often are you sick?
[00:09:08] Very rarely.
[00:09:10] So it’s a good sign now. So those fasting it’s my goal with fasting is to do exactly like you do three days per week. I don’t eat zero calories before lunch. And then my goal is to two times per year, do a longer fast somewhere between three. And this time I’m going for 10 days that I think I’m going to do it maybe once every 50 years or something. And the reason I want to do this fast that are a little bit longer are to first is that autophagy starts to kick in after 16 hours and then your break the fast when you’re just starting to get the most effects out of this maintainence system. So I want to be in that state a little bit longer.
[00:09:56] And yes, I had a question.
[00:09:59] Now I’m thinking, is there like any studies saying how much value you get from this if you don’t fast for 10? Well, if you fast for 10 days, will you get an extra month of healthy life or is there like any kind of tests? I mean, don’t like rats that they survive this and that men much longer if they don’t get food?
[00:10:25] Yes, we have done tests on all animals on earth except humans. And basically, if you lower calorie intake, you prolong lifespan. So there is good evidence on that. And aging is a very, very various complex process. But to oversimplify it a lot. One reason is cumulative damage to your DNA and are research coming out?
[00:10:48] That’s the general you’re saying complicated words and you’ve lost me cumulative damage to my DNA. So you get damage over time, DNA, and that is causing aging and that’s what makes us older. Yeah.
[00:11:02] There are research that suggest that not eating trigger processes that prevents repair this DNA damage process.
[00:11:11] O’casey. Could you say that the reason why we’re getting older is that we keep copying our DNA? So if I mean, like the good old days when you were copying a paper in school and you do the same copy over and over and over again at two, after a while, it got less easy to read. Is that what happens when raging?
[00:11:30] Exactly. That is a beautiful metaphor. I didn’t know that. Yeah. And there are research that are seen by guy called David Sinclair. He’s has a TED talk that suggests that not eating triggers a certain kind of protein that prevents this process. OK. And I’ve seen research that suggests that fasting prolongs the lives of rats, for example, as well. Yes. OK. Another thing that would cause her to die is disease. And disease has to do with can have to do it. For example, toxic buildup and thinks not having the chance to be cleared out of your body and fasting. Help with that, too.
[00:12:10] Ok. So I feel that I’ve got a pretty good idea about fasting.
[00:12:15] And if I’m wrapping up in a sentence or a few senses, first feel a need of saying we have definitely not done tests on all animals on the net. You have a lot of that. I’d like to see the latest blue whale tests, but yeah, I just felt the need of saying that.
[00:12:32] So when it fasting, the easiest way of doing it well, one easy way of doing it would be to do it 16 hours per day for three days a week, or maybe just one day per week is better than nothing. And then the essential part is to have zero calories during this time. And that in itself will, among other things, have the health benefits of slowing down aging by slowing down the process of the body copying itself. And the body doesn’t have to deal with the food coming in. So instead, it can deal with rejuvenating itself and the cleaning up and just taking care of itself, because basically no one is knocking on the door and say, deal with this food that in your stomach. So instead you can focus on our thing.
[00:13:22] Exactly. It’s kind of like your city’s going to war at that time. We will spend less money on garbage and hospitals. We need to expand and do something.
[00:13:31] Mm hmm. OK.
[00:13:35] Did I miss something on fasting, you want to put a pin in that one and jump onto the next weird thing I’m doing?
[00:13:41] I’m happy to to move forward.
[00:13:46] And thank you for clarifying things where I’m using words that are that are not true. I really want a clarified that I am not a doctor or a researcher. I’m a happy enthusiast. And I’m sharing my knowledge to the best of my ability. And I’m probably gonna be wrong in several places in this podcast. So please do your own research. And I would love for you to get back to me if you find some leak in my understanding or just one some tips and guidance.
[00:14:13] I’m sure Emily would love to give tips and guidance for anyone who is inspired by this.
[00:14:17] I would love just doing this episode. Inspired me to have written four episodes for my YouTube channel about the topics related to fasting and longevity.
[00:14:28] That’s really cool. And how do you find your duty of channel?
[00:14:31] It’s called What’s Missing. You can find it by YouTubing. What’s missing? I’m pretty sure. Or my name. E-mail Yakut.
[00:14:41] Yeah. You’ll find the owner’s name in the description somewhere. It’s hard to spell.
[00:14:45] It’s hard to spell. And if you subscribe and I get 100 subscribers, I could have answered this question by. Well, you can go to YouTube, slash watch missing. We’ll do that. I’ll give you a subscribe for Christmas, I promise. Thank you. Okay.
[00:15:02] So let’s let’s move on to the next thing that I’m doing that my mother think is crazy. And to be honest, I believe it’s a little bit weird as well, is that I put butter, coconut oil and M.C. T oil in my coffee and then I put it in a blender and I drink it because I get a lot of fat in myself. And all my life I’ve been told that fats are bad for you and you tell me it’s not. And I still don’t understand why. Why am I doing this?
[00:15:33] Okay. There are several reasons. First of all, coffee is proven to stimulate the autophagy. So you get more autophagy by drinking coffee. Regarding the fasting.
[00:15:43] Okay. So if we’re fasting, it’s good to drink coffee in the morning.
[00:15:47] Yeah, for several reasons. When I drink. This is the second time I do a 10 day fast. The first time I was in Indonesia and I had no coffee or supplements and it was quite tough. This time I am drinking more than my normal dose of coffee and I’m taking some supplements and it’s so much easier. My energy hasn’t been under seven out of 10 in a week now.
[00:16:13] And the reason is because my body is tapping into its own fat reserves and is using fat for fuel and that state is called ketosis.
[00:16:26] Okay. I feel like we’re opening a whole new loop of questions going in that direction, right?
[00:16:30] Yes. So, Mayor Chair, why I started being interested in this. Feel free. Yes. So before I started working with Great, I worked as a professional poker player and there I was pretty much competing in a main sport for 12 hour sessions each day. And the conventional diet tips I had heard was to eat a lot of pasta and porridge and stuff in the morning. So I did that. And first I got quite tired for 30 minutes and then I had a lot of energy for two hours and then I started to become very hungry. And that was so inconvenient for me because I couldn’t take a break to eat. So I started to reach searching different options. And I found this about ketosis, which is that you use fat for fuel. And when you do that, your energy will become much more stable, because when the food in your stomach is out, the body can use its own reserves as fuel in a way that it’s not possible. If there are carbohydrates present in the system.
[00:17:37] Ok. Yeah. We’re opening a whole new loop of questions here.
[00:17:41] Well, let’s head in that direction then and we’ll get back to coffee and thoughts. Yes.
[00:17:46] So ketosis, from my understanding, listening is a way of getting our body to use fat as a reserve of energy rather than the food we have in our stomach. Is that correct?
[00:18:00] Yes. So if you’re in ketosis, your body’s you get into ketosis by having low amounts of carbohydrates in your system, maybe less than 20 grams per day.
[00:18:14] And carbohydrates is usually sugar as well, right? That’s the carbohydrates.
[00:18:18] Exactly. Exactly. And. When you are in ketosis, your body will use fat as fuel, either from fat to eat as food or by fat that is stored on your body.
[00:18:33] Ok, so the way to sum that up, it’s good to be in ketosis.
[00:18:38] You get to ketosis by not eating carbohydrates, which includes sugar for a significant amount of time. And that will make your energy level more even because you always have some fat on your body, but you’re not always having food in your stomach.
[00:18:56] Exactly. And ketosis is proven to help you lose weight, reduce hunger, give your cognitive show benefits and increase longevity.
[00:19:05] And when you say proven in both ways, is it proven? There’s a lot of research on it. Okay. Okay. I feel I got a decent understanding of that. Let’s head back to coffee. Why am I putting butter in my coffee and how does that relate to Catholicism?
[00:19:20] Ok. So when you sow, coffee is increasing autophagy. But it’s also increasing ketosis. It’s increasing the rate at which your body’s using these this fat for fuel. And you’re also putting a stop to that.
[00:19:38] Ok, so the coffee is. Enhancing the speed at which I access the energy from fats, for example. Exactly. OK. So there are things in coffee that speeds up that process.
[00:19:56] Yes, OK. And the MSA t oil also put into coffee is also increasing that process. And the reason that the advantage with this, the MSA, T-O is what is A.C.T. oil, its stance. It’s a part of the coconut oil is called medium chain triglycerides. Triglycerides. So it’s an extract of coconut oil that is putting your body into ketosis easily, even if you might have some carbohydrates prescence in the system. So it’s kind of simulating ketosis.
[00:20:29] I’ll take you and mce you or you can be bought in most stores then I assume. Is it a common day? Yeah. OK. And t of stores. Yeah. That was something I’d never had heard before bef before I started drinking this coffee and I still don’t really know what it is. OK. NCT speeds it up. And why do I want butter and coconut oil. And it’s.
[00:20:54] It’s fuel for your body. Your body will use that fat as fuel and it will reduce hunger and gives you mentally stable energy.
[00:21:06] Ok. But all of my life I’ve been told that fat is bad for your saturated fat is bad for you. What’s why isn’t this fat bad for me?
[00:21:15] Yes, I heard that, too. So what do you think your mom is worried about when she is saying that fat is bad for you?
[00:21:25] I have absolutely no idea. She’s just worried.
[00:21:28] Ok. So I might guess then that the main worry is heart disease and maybe second to that weight gain.
[00:21:37] Possibly.
[00:21:40] Yes, those ideas is what I was brought up with to say it has taken me some time to overcome that fear.
[00:21:47] So our little story about fats and where those ideas came from. Feel free. Okay. So back in the. Before 19, 10 people were almost exclusively, to my understanding, cooking in S&ED rated Fatts, but 1910 it started to become more efficient to produce vegetable oils. What is saturated fats? Saturated fats?
[00:22:18] You give some examples of what? Saturated fats?
[00:22:22] It’s in butter, coconut oil. So people got butter and it’s an animal fat, too. Some people got fat from cows or pigs or they got the butter from cows. Okay.
[00:22:35] And they use that to cook in what other outsider but other fats?
[00:22:41] There are polysaccharides fats. monice underrated fats. There are a couple of different ones.
[00:22:46] Okay.
[00:22:46] So a lot of complicated words and combined with that’s why I didn’t say so.
[00:22:51] Saturated fat is animal fat, butter, coconut oil.
[00:22:55] Okay.
[00:22:57] Might be something I missed. Eggs. Egg yolks. There’s a lot of saturated fats.
[00:23:01] Okay. They were cooking in saturated fats. Let’s get back there.
[00:23:04] Yes. And in nineteen ten, somewhere around there, it started to become much more efficient to produce vegetable oils and people were switching from saturated fat to vegetable oils. And before this heart disease wasn’t that big of a problem. I’m talking about the U.S. now. About eight percent of the people that died died from heart disease. And after 1910, around somewhere there. The amount of heart disease, amount of people that were killed by heart disease started to go up a lot. And it started to peak around 1960. And at the same time, a precedent. Eisenhower died in a heart attack. I think that was 1955. And the population wanted to find a what is responsible for this? What is the culprit? What is causing these heart attacks? And of course, I’m not saying it’s only vegetable oils. More things happen. For example, people died less from infections and stuff like that. So people lived longer. So there was more time to die from a heart attack. So that’s also a factor, of course. But it became much more of a problem in the 50s, 60s. Are you with me so far?
[00:24:22] Yeah. Let’s see. So to sum that up, before 1910, people were cooking with saturated fats from like butter and stuff and then it became much easier. And what’s cheaper? I’m guessing to get other kinds of fat to cook in. For example, I know rapeseed oil and stuff like that probalby corn oil or something.
[00:24:45] And people started cooking in that instead. And then you could see that heart disease went up and we didn’t back down. No. The connection between them.
[00:24:57] Exactly. No one knew the connection. And in the 60s, one scientist called and some keys had a hypothesis. And I’m saying this is a hypothesis because it has not been proven yet. And that is that sad rated fat clogs the arteries and leads to heart attacks. And he’s convinced a lot of governmental bodies and other scientists about this. So in the 60s, the American government went out with a nationwide campaign that said that saturated fat and cholesterol will lead to a heart attack. So you should reduce your intake of saturated fat, eggs and fat from animals.
[00:25:38] Ok.
[00:25:42] So we have been brought up with the idea of fathers being the enemy. That’s why my mother has told me that butter is bad for me, but in reality, that was another proven.
[00:25:56] It has never been proven quite to the contrary in the last 10 years. That has been for studies that I have seen that are huge studies from places like Oxford and Cambridge. One would half a million people in it. That shows no link between saturated fat and heart disease.
[00:26:15] And what happens when you stop eating saturated fats and animal fats?
[00:26:22] I don’t know. Educate me. I get less energy.
[00:26:25] Yes. Well, if you don’t replace it with something else. People replaced it a lot. Bed. Vegetable oils. Sugar. Refined carbohydrates. Junk food. And since then, the number of people that have been hospitalized by because of heart related reasons have increased. The amount of obesity has gone from twelve percent. When that was introduced to thirty two percent, I think 2015 and today, heart disease is the biggest killer in America. One out of four American base and heart disease.
[00:27:05] Ok. So we started with. Why am I putting fats in my coffee and we end up with a lot of people dying from heart disease. And let’s see if I can connect the dots getting there. Basically, we used to think and a lot of us still think, including some ways me and definitely my mother. That the reason for heart disease were all kinds of fat them not just one kind or the other kind. And we started to eat less of the good kinds of fat and we replaced it with carbohydrates, vegetable oils and a lot of things that were less good for us and cheaper to produce. Cheaper to produce. And what we actually missed out on then is that these fats are really, really good for us. And now I’m putting butter and coconut oil into my coffee because I want to get more of that in my body. Yes. And that gives me good energy.
[00:28:11] Two thirds of your brain is made out of fat. Fat is very crucial for a lot of cognitive function and.
[00:28:22] Yeah.
[00:28:22] Ok. That’s the question. Yeah, I’m sitting and trying to wrap my head around things. And if I should sum this up in a sentence is. I’ve learned that fat is bad for me and it s could be bad for me about a lot of fat is actually very good for me. And now I want to get more fat into my diet, but I want it to be the good kinds of fat as butter and coconut oil. Not bad kinds of fats as, I don’t know, fried food or chocolates.
[00:28:59] Yes, chocolate is actually saturated fat. So it’s the same fat. Chocolate fat is very good for you. It’s just a sugar in there. Yes, it is bad for you.
[00:29:07] Ok. So very dark chocolate is good for me. But sugar, chocolate, regular chocolate that I buy in the store and Mars Bar is 90 percent sugar. Probably, yes.
[00:29:16] And trans fats, which is the worst kind. Now, I want to give you something, a way to think about this. That would make it easier. So instead of asking yourself, is this fat bad for me, ask the question, how much have someone messed with this food before I eat it? For example, if you have a sugar beet that is in the earth and you eat that, that’s probably not gonna be bad for you. But if you have someone take a lot of sugar beets mixed in with a lot of chemicals and produce them is six different tanks and press out a syrup that is probably not going to be as good for you. Same thing with butter that comes from a cow. If you have a cow that is out doing cow stuff, eating grass is happy with his cow buddies. The fact that that cow is producing is probably not going to be bad for you, but if you take the same cow and put him in cow person, feed him genetically manipulated soy that is totally unnatural for a cow to eat, preventing from move and feed him antibiotics we can to survive. The butter that comes from that cow is probably not going to be good for you. So ask yourself, how much have someone messed with this product?
[00:30:35] Ok. So it’s not as easy to say butter is good for you. Butter could actually be bad for you. Yeah. If you’re buying the wrong kinds of butter.
[00:30:43] Yes, for sure. So. So how do you know if. No, no, no, no. The batter is good or not. Look for grass-fed butter, grass fed butter.
[00:30:52] And that means the cow has been eating grass and not sorry, for example.
[00:30:57] Yes. So if a cow eats soy, it cannot make the same kind of butter. So do different fats in the butter and the butter becomes more inflammatory. Yeah. And yes, to use some common sense here. We have eaten fats for millennia. The heart disease epidemic was starting in the beginning of the nineteen hundreds. So why would a food aid before that be responsible? Instead I would look at what was introduced after we started to get this problem. And that is vegetable oils, sugar and processed carbohydrates.
[00:31:39] I mean, I think it’s a simplified way of looking at it. Sure. We didn’t eat the same way and at the same time we didn’t drive cars. So we were actually going places all the time. We were fasting, as you said before, on a regular basis. We weren’t smoking. We weren’t stressing in the same way. We were never inside.
[00:32:00] Said it could be the food that we’re eating that makes sense, but it could also be a lot of other things, which makes it tricky to simplify it like that.
[00:32:10] One hundred percent. But to make something that was existing before adults responsible for it makes less sense. Salads makes less sense to me.
[00:32:20] Yeah, I can see that it’s less likely that it was the meat we were eating if it’s the same kind of meat combo compared to something completely different.
[00:32:29] Yeah. Unless we’d done something weird with the meat. Yes, you have. Which you have.
[00:32:34] Ok. This episode is running a lot longer than we planned for. So I’ll suggest we wrap this up and we’ll do an episode version two of this and continue with the rest of the things we had planned to say.
[00:32:48] What do you think about that?
[00:32:50] That sounds good. So how about. Cause I’m in flow right now. So how about we keep recording and then we just cut this in two and then we will have two episodes? I can do a reintroduction.
[00:33:01] Okay, let’s do that. So let’s let’s I’ll summarize this one then and wrap this up and we’ll we’ll go from there. So we’ll just start a new recording and we’ll go into it.
[00:33:14] Yes.
[00:33:18] Ok, so let’s cut from kind of there.
[00:33:25] So how about you do an outro for this up so yummy.
[00:33:28] I’m going to start by summarizing what we said about Fats, cause I feel that was a lot.
[00:33:42] I keep coming back to the question of why am I putting butter, coconut oil and NCT oil in my coffee? And this is something that I do every day. And what I take with me from this conversation is one reason why I’m doing it as well. One reason why I’m drinking coffee is that it’s good for how my body AXA’s energy from Fats, for example. It brings me closer to these complicated words, ketosis and autophagy, which is two things that are good for me for cleaning up my body and giving me energy. And I’m putting butter, coconut oil and empty oil in because they’re all healthy fats, which to my understanding then is a lot of energy, but also needed for. Well, the brain was apparently a lot of hearts. It’s needed for the brain is needed for a lot of different functions in our body.
[00:34:39] And we’ve learned that fat is bad for you, even though that’s not necessarily true. At least some fats are very good for us. And I also take with me that the less someone has touched the food, the better it is. And by touched, I mean going through different machines and processes and pesticides and whatever it is. So if there is butter from a happy cow walking around in the green counter lines of Sweden, great butter from a cow standing still whose shoes shamed up in a kind of factory environment, being fed weird stuff and filled with antibiotics, bad butter and to know the difference is good to look for grass fed butter on the box and. Yeah, I got a better understanding of why I’m drinking coffee that a lot of people think is weird.
[00:35:32] Yes. And one thing I would like to add today is that good fats from my perspective comes from, well, the fats I choose to get the most out of it’s butter, coconut oil. Like you said, the Kakao butter in chocolate is very good for you. MSA tea.
[00:35:49] I’d like to mention to clarify our chocolate in this case is very strong. Very high. What’s in chocolate, Kakao? 90 percent or more? Not chocolate. As in Mars bars.
[00:36:03] Exactly. And avocados are great for you. Olive oil. Great for you. Jokes. Great for you. Animal fat again from happy animals.
[00:36:15] From my perspective like that, from how to be an animal. Happy animals are good food. That’s probably an easy way to think.
[00:36:21] Yeah. Huh.
[00:36:24] Okay. So I’ll just. And then and say that we are doing this podcast because we believe that entrepreneurship is the way to make the world a better place. And one way is done talking about health and how to get more energy and do more things. And I’m thinking a lot about this in my personal life and I’m very happy for these life hacks, even though I haven’t fully understood them before.
