Jesse Lawler - Founder of the Smart Drug Smarts podcast by The Journal by Kevin Rose published on 2016-08-31T22:58:25Z We go down-down the rabbit hole and talk all things brain enhancementm. Genre Science Comment by anywho One correction which irritated me on the show, Jesse Lawler referred to his 7 day water fast as starvation. No, starvation is when your body has no non-essential body tissues left to burn (such as fat) and starts burning essential tissues (such as the liver) in order to live. That's true starvation. Using your natural fat supplies is NOT starving, and seven days for a normal person is not even close to put you into starving. Most people can handle even the 40 day jesus deal. 2017/03/01 09:06:38 +0000 Comment by anywho one reason to do the traditional ayahuasca ritual is that the shaman really knows what he's doing. If you end up having a bad experience, he can snap you back out of it easily. Kevin's thinking is correct here, it's good to do it the way that it's been done for a long time. The shaman does it together with the group too, so he's connected ( if you're into it in a spiritual sense ) 2017/03/01 08:02:54 +0000 Comment by jonmoss Kevin, thanks for interviewing Jesse - absolutely fascinating. 2016/10/10 11:28:02 +0000
