Trauma recovery and ketosis [18:47] Lorena says: Hi Robb & Nicki! I've been following you for a few years an have FINALLY started the Keto Masterclass! Thanks for offering it during this global pandemic season. This is way more practical for me to dive into vs AIP at this time. I'm a psychotherapist specializing in trauma and am a student of Somatic Experiencing, a modality that draws on the body's innate ability to process and recover from traumatic experiences if we give it the time, space, and attention (super short synopsis). We focus a lot on incomplete fight/flight responses that keep us in cycles of trauma and thus high activation (muscle tension, gut issues, pain, and a LOT of other somatic symptoms). I'm going through module 2 where you explain the purpose of ketones and you say that this frees up the glycogen to "only be used when we need it." This makes me wonder if/how the over-consumption of carbs and thus always burning those carbs can perpetuate this sympathetic nervous system response keeping trauma survivors from being able to regulate themselves. I'll leave that there to hear how you would parse through that information and your wide ranging knowledge and will reach out with follow up if need be. I'm thinking this could be a very useful thing for me and my colleagues to consider, especially as we as a society come to grips with nutrition having MAJOR effects on our mood and mood regulation. I look forward to hearing your thoughts on this! Lorena Austin, TX :)   2. Homebirthing [25:39] Megan says: I’m pregnant with my first child and have been doing a lot of research on natural/home-birthing.  It makes so much sense to me to give birth this way and yet it seems so many people, including my closest friends and family, are resistant to the idea.  It would be super helpful to hear your perspective and how you decided to do it.  What factors did you consider?  Would you be willing to share your experience of having a home birth, and would you recommend it?   Megan, Boise, ID   3. Coffee and Gut Permeability [39:17] Laurel says: Hey Robb, Though I am sure you have seen this...in the light of it's take on coffee lowering iron, and not sure if the research mentions its relationship with gut permeability or not - haven't read the whole thing yet. As I don't hold back on coffee, and don't hear you saying you have seen any hard evidence to do so, I wondered what your thoughts were on the research linked below? Could be its only a negative if you are fighting this type of disease?? cheers, btw, love love love your and Nicki's show. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/337832528_38-month_long_progression-free_and_symptom-free_survival_of_a_patient_with_recurrent_glioblastoma_multiforme_A_case_report_of
