Healthy Options 7/2/14

Host and Producer: Cynthia Swan
Engineer: Joel Mann

Program Topic: “Go Wild: Free your Body and Mind from the Afflictions of Civilization”

Key Discussion Points:
a) What does it mean to Go Wild? How does one do it?
B We’ve been told that obesity happens because we consume more calories than we burn. Why do you call this a myth? What evidence substantiates this?
c) What is the ketogenic diet? Why is this considered a hunter/gather diet?
d) You say sleep cures depression, how is this so?
e) What is “mindfulness” from the hunter/gather’s perspective? Why is it important?
