Hey everyone,

Here's my response to one of the questions I got. I'm new to this kind of format so my speech lacks a bit of fluidity, I hope it's not to the point that it's hard to listen to. I'll have to do a few extra takes going forward as I get used to monologuing into a recorder.
Feel free to leave any questions or comments, let me know if you like this kind of audio format.

Talks mentioned:
Allan Savory's "How to green the world's deserts and reverse climate change"

Peter Ballerstedt's "Ruminant Reality Check"

Hi Joseph, it is not completely true, that most people can not afford a healthy lifestyle due to high cost of quality food. Organic food for example is, if you include all cost factors cheaper for society than mass produced regular food, not only because of the health impact difference (and later costs) but also because of the impact on the soil and harvesting in the next years. Industrially mass produced food destroys the soil and leads to more natural disaster, less animal diversity a.s.o and can therefore also be measured as cost If food would be therefore priced by its real price, people would start to buy the organic produced food way more, which would also let to a decrease in price ude to scalability effects...

Hey man have you done any reading about the safety of using monk fruit, erythritol, stevia etc In general or on a lchf type diet? I want to know if they’re safer than an equal amount of table sugar, maple syrup etc? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

All 3 of them are a lot better than table sugar and maple syrup and other forms of sugar. Why? Because they are low/non-existent on the glycemic index, meaning they don't spike your blood sugar and thus, your insulin. Which is what causes inflammation and deteriorates your immune system. Here's a list of sweeteners and their GI: http://www.sugar-and-sweetener-guide.com/glycemic-index-for-sweeteners.html It's also worth noting that not all the low ones are good still. From the Bulletproof blog, they recommend erythritol, xylitol, stevia and monk fruit as the "best ones" that cause the least amount of harm to your system. I have personally found stevia to be a great way of sweetening things, as it's so sweet. Xylitol is less sweet than sugar, and really expensive in the long run as a replacement.
