It needs to be balanced by repair. We have, we kind of sanctify growth in our culture at every turn, you know, the GDP, the Dow Jones, whatever, the size of your business, you know, but really we need to balance growth with restoration and repair. And, you know, that applies to food, that applies to sleep, and it can apply to other practices too.

Totally. And this one, again, I think has, there's a gender, a little bit of a gender debate around this one too. But what I found... for me, was a particular protocol stack was unbelievably effective at helping me lose weight and balance blood sugar levels. And that's this stack. So intermittent fasting, we talked about. I was combining intermittent fasting with a low carbohydrate diet.

So initially that was kind of what I call the ketotarian diet or what Will Cole wrote a book called Ketotarianism. And that was fairly plant heavy, but low glycemic. Subsequently to that, I started to actually introduce more like regeneratively grown, pasture fed, pasture finished meats, et cetera, to up my protein bolus, particularly in the morning. But let's just say this.

intermittent fasting protocol, low carbohydrate diet, and then introduced a cold water therapy cadenced at a very particular time of day. So I'll unpack why this was so impactful for me. About 10 o'clock in the morning, I would have been fasted for about 15 and a half hours, right? And I would also be on a relatively low carbohydrate diet.

So my blood glucose levels by extension would be quite low. Now there is a little bit of spike with cortisol in the morning and that's adaptive to get you out of bed and get you alert, get you to a podcast. But mostly like my blood glucose levels would be quite low at 10 a.m. due to intermittent fasting and low carb diet.

At that juncture, I would get in to an ice bath before I put the first bite of food in my mouth. And I started seeing like unbelievable results with my just metabolic function and my weight loss. And I started to think about it. So at 10 o'clock, my blood glucose levels would be really, really low. I'd get into an ice plunge and what would happen? That'd be the first thing that happened.

I'd take a big gasp, but my core body temperature would plummet, right? And then my mighty mitochondria would go into overdrive. to heat my body back up, to thermoregulate back up into that warm porridge of 98.6. Get back into the Goldilocks zone. That's what the body's engineered for all the time. Homeostasis, homeostasis.
