Joe Rogan/Dr. Rhonda: Bulletproof Coffee BS, Lectins

[TexasRanger]

I enjoy Martin Berkhan's information and apparently he's not a fan of any of the Bulletproof nonsense.  So, he posted this Joe Rogan/Dr. Rhonda discussion on Bulletproof Coffee with Dr. Rhonda.  They also cover lectins -- gluten is a form of lectin, btw -- and talk about the misinformation on this topic:

I like the Joe Rogan podcast. Always something interesting. Listened to this from the mark until the end. Loved it. Thanks for posting.

OTOH, I have never cared for Asprey's irritating, smug manner of behavior. Hearing that he's full of shit is a confirmation of what I suspected.

I've posted that I saw Asprey years ago at a networking event and that was my immediate impression.

Another perspective on Asprey:

The problem with all of this is that Asprey doesn’t portray the whole story accurately. As I said, I’m not going to even delve into the diet, as that can be handled by experts who care about that such thing, instead, I want to delve into the story.

You see it wasn’t the magic butter coffee that gave him boundless energy.

It wasn’t the bulletproof diet aimed at taking away all of those toxins that changed his physique to that of a ripped gym rat.

No. It was none of those things. What was it?

Testosterone. Modafinil. Thyroid Meds.

That’s right. Part of the story was that all of that self-experimentation included taking drugs.
