Episode notes
Fix Foundations Before Biohacks
- Prioritize foundational health (hydration, minerals, sunlight, movement, social connection) before experimenting with biohacks like nicotine.
- Avoid using quick fixes when dehydrated or stressed because they can worsen dysregulation.
Spring Water Has A Terroir
- Spring water preserves a local "terroir" and subtle informational qualities that bottled water loses through processing and packaging.
- David views springs as original, living water with unique signatures that can affect health.
How To Find And Check Springs
- Use findaspring.org and local geology cues to locate springs: look on shaded, north-facing sides of hills and near faults.
- Test or observe spring water (smell, growth, clarity) regularly and maintain boxed springs to avoid contamination.
