Included in this episode: -The exact foods that you must begin avoiding today if you want to maximize your energy -The #1 recommended way to get tested for food allergies (hint: it ain't blood) -Ann's 3 most recommended compounds for reversing the damage that you've done to your digestive system -A top-secret Romanian supplement that Ben Greenfield has never heard of, but that he's going to try -Two herbs that will wreak havoc on the bad bacteria in your gut -Why someone who has a perfect exercise program and seems to be eating healthy can still not lose any weight, and might actually be gaining fat -How a runner, a cyclist, a swimmer, a triathlete or a weightlifter can use this type of information to massively boost performance You can e-mail Ann at [email protected] and you can get her book here. -------------------------------------------- Also In This Podcast -Listener Q&A:Listener Jen asks... Ben, I discovered your site last year from an article you'd written on Training Peaks and loved that one of your focuses is metabolic rates. From someone that has struggled for years with food/weight/exercise, to hear someone actually SAY that isn't just "calories in, calories out" was like a salve to these woefully sore ears! Anyway. On to my question, with a bit of a backstory ... 2 years ago I had a Deep Vein Thrombosis in my left leg. It was treated and I was told the clot had "dissolved". One year ago I started on my Ironman Journey - training and completing an ironman before my 50th birthday - which I'll be doing this August (2009) in Louisville KY. (my son is doing it with me!) Despite medical reassurances that everything is "normal" I continue to have issues with my left leg - a pulled hamstring last year - occasional soreness in my left knee if I'm not very careful. (ie track workouts seem to be really hard on it, stretching religiously etc.). To heal the hamstring last year my PT used Craniosacral Therapy with good results and told me there was an imbalance/blocked energy in my left leg. Fast forward to last week and again, a track workout started playing havoc with my left leg. Focusing on energy flow I can "feel" the blockage. Now to my question ... is there perhaps a nutrition regime through food and/or supplements that are known for creating good energy/blood flow? I'm surmising that I sustained vein damage from the DVT but if I could create more vein/blood flow in that leg I might circumvent further problems as I continue to ramp up my training.

The effect of compression socks on running performance, whether or not core strength actually helps runners... Whether cycling and running testing needs to be done at different times... The effect of caffeine on sports-specific endurance performance... -Special Announcements: -Want to be paid to feature Ben Greenfield's cutting-edge calorie-burning book "100 Ways to Boost Your Metabolism" on your website?
