I’m going to be traveling Sunday-Sunday. Tried hard to get enough recordings done so keep releasing one every 5 days, but couldn’t get schedules to quite work out. There will likely be no new episode next week. M&M 276 about AMP kinase and nutrient sensing is up early now on Substack for subscribers, and will release widely this Sunday.
I’ve got a string on interesting guests lined up for early Feb…

When I worked in the marijuana industry, people made all sorts of cannabinoid gummies marketed for different effects: sleep, energy, stress, etc.
The non-THC stuff never caused a noticeable effect for me, perhaps because most products contained low amounts (~10mg) of cannabinoids.
Someone convinced me to try a Cordyceps mushroom extract gummy product recently, each with 300mg of mushroom extract.
Two of these causes a noticeable "mental energy" affect in me.
Looked into it, and there is some literature on Cordyceps affecting both exercise performance in humans and cellular ATP production in rodents.
This is the one I tried. For a limited time you can use the code TRIKOMES for a 20% discount: sporesmd.com/product/cordyceps-energy-support-mush…

Uploaded the new episode on grass vs grain-fed beef in 1080p instead of 720, as well as the one with Michael Snyder I just uploaded.
Do people notice the difference in video quality, or care?
