I’ve been going down the no plastic rabbit hole. It’s amazing how hard it is. Glass jars in pantry. Buy food in bulk and at farmers markets. Cast iron cooking with wood or metal utensils. Natural cleaners in glass. Whole house water filters….it goes on and on.

[@richroll]

It's definitely overwhelming - we discuss this as well as the hierarchy of harm so that we don't become paralyzed by the problem.

This woman is showing up everywhere on my phone . Tic Tok you tube. I would not be surprised if she showed up in my house at some point

[@athdragoveskel9389]

Rhonda! The oracle! We love you!

[@richroll]

great to have her back after 9 years:)

[@gabrielab]

One of the best scientists in the field. Every statement that comes out of her mouth, on this topics, is science-backed. Looking forward to watching this episode. Thank you! ❤

[@verairons4830]

Dr. Patrick is a goldmine of the most valuable information about healthspan and lifespan! ❤

[@richroll]

it's crazy how she can talk for hours about this stuff without any notes or anything

[@jithenin]

Looking forward for many insights from Dr Rhonda for overall health, thank you Rich for this conversation 👍❤️

Tire dust is a huge source of plastics if you live in a densely populated area or close to a highway

[@rohamsamiepour1676]

thanks a lot

[@johnulcer]

She’s the reason I’m still taking sulforaphane years later.

[@rwielatz]

Have you noticed positive effects after taking sulforaphane? Do you get it through Mara labs? Thanks for any info.

[@KasKade7]

@@rwielatz I did my own broccoli sprouting for like 3 months because of her. Even combined it with mustard seeds. Better sulforaphane absorption. I could not detect any effects. I ate quite alot too. Also did some blood tests, nothing changed. I still eat normal broccoli every now and then. But sprouting seems to be a waste of time for me.

[@rwielatz]

@ thank you. I tried sprouting too but didn’t have much luck.

[@johnulcer]

@@rwielatz it’s more of a long term health thing than anything immediately noticeable but when I was on it daily I definitely noticed my skin and hair looked healthier, less inflammation (I workout a lot). I used BROQ brand but they just changed their formula recently from active sulforaphane to precursors that convert in the intestines, and I’m not sure if I believe their claims that it’s as bioavailable as the pure sulforaphane was.

You can't outrun a bad diet

[@bpg201]

Haven't gotten to the microplastics portion yet but it's such a depressing topic. Seems like you could go all in on a healthy diet and getting the right exercise....but the microplastics are like impossible to avoid....and are doing no favors for our health.

[@kvk1]

28:05 lmao

[@sharonbest4983]

good example on if you're an expert on one thing doesnt mean you're an expert on everything. she does deep dive on exercise, but does that mean that she is an expert on microplatics?

[@richardkule9384]

Heard it all before. I support recycling.

[@End_Illegal_Apartheid_israhell]

diet

[@richroll]

yes

[@julietmikealpha]

I love a good Rich Roll episode but man, sometimes they're so long. Overall health is an important topic, and I understand it is, as acknowledged at the start, a very broad topic, but still - nearly three hours of content is difficult to absorb! Time to get on the bike for an endurance ride, I guess? :)

[@richroll]

I get that Juliet but my preference is to be thorough and to create conversations that are evergreen - so it will always be here if / when you might find the depth of interest.

[@Virulhubs]

First

[@richroll]

congrats

[@jeff.howard]

Wow Rich. Long time listener. You've reached a new low of inviting pseudoscience experts on the show. Will you invite anyone who's popular now? I have trusted you to curate good quality content but this is going poorly now.

[@BigBraGad]

"Popularity = pseudoscientist" -this guy

[@richroll]

Hi Jeff - thanks for your perspective and thank you for being a long-time listener. Per my introductory remarks in this podcast, this is not Rhonda's first appearance on the show. She was a guest 9 years back in 2016 (episode 209 which is like almost 700 episodes ago) so I've followed her work for quite some time, so quite honestly my decision to invite her back on the show has nothing to do with your presumption of popularity. Instead, it was prompted by recently reconnecting with her at a recent Google Zeitgeist conference we both attended, where she was part of an excellent panel discussion on longevity science that included Dr. Valter Longo and Peter Diamandis (both of whom have been on the podcast multiple times). Curious to learn what statements in this conversation you would consider to be pseudoscience? Anyway and either way, feedback always appreciated.
