    "I felt as if everything I had been working for my entire life, and everything I had dreamed about was playing out in front of my eyes. I was only 21 years old and I felt like I had everything. But, after a nasty crash, my life was threatened. I had hit my head and went to a local urgent care to make sure something more serious wasn't happening. I had no damage from the crash, but there was a brain tumor taking up the left half of my brain. Immediate surgical removal was necessary. I came out okay and defied all odds by getting back on my bike only five weeks later." In this podcast, we dive into Josh's inspirational story, Ketogenic diet, overcoming injury, mindset, and much much more!

    73: Salt. Why sodium intake may be ruining your health.

    Play Episode Listen Later Jun 10, 2019 63:00


    In this episode, we talk about salt, electrolytes, and why you should be taking a serious look at your daily levels. We also address the endurance myth of salt consumption, the history,the genes associated with sodium, and why certain demographics need to pay more attention to their levels than others. Try one of our online programs: Here! Contact us: faqfitnesspodcast@gmail.com Add us on IG Parker Chuck   Show notes   Yanonami Indians in Brazillian rainforests still maintain ancient dietary patterns and consume less than 500mg/day The CDC estimates that the average American consumes 3,436 milligrams (mg) of sodium a day - far more than the maximum recommendation of 2,300 mg Salt became important when humans transitioned from eating, plants, fruits, bugs to using tools to hunt. Salt was important in the preservation of food. In modern times salt in higher concentration suppresses the bitterness of processed foods. 70%-80% of the sodium in U.S. diets comes not from the salt shaker but from packaged, processed, restaurant, and store-bought foods. In May, the Center for Science in the Public Interest released a report that found 85 out of 102 restaurant meals from 17 popular chains had more than a full day's worth of sodium. Some had more than four days’ worth. Clinical studies have indicated that the effect of sodium intake on blood pressure is influenced by a gene called the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE). GA and AA variants of this gene increase your likeliness to having elevated blood pressure when consuming salt.     Ways to reduce salt intake:   Eat MORE fresh minimally processed foods. Read the nutrition labels on packaged foods. When eating out at restaurants ask for low salt preparation. Avoid high sodium sauces like Soy, ketchup, mustard, and some salad dressings. Use sodium-free spices or fresh herbs to flavor foods.   Sources: Poch et al. “Molecular Basis of Salt Sensitivity in Human Hypertension.
