- begueradj 2y agoThat's also why humans have maybe the weakest teeth among the mammals ... and a narrow mouth which caused us to lose certain teeth we no longer have nowadays. In an interview with Joe Rogan, James Nestor suggested to encourage our kids to eat non soft food daily.
- soperj 2y agoDoes he give some examples of non soft foods?
- hombre_fatal 2y agoGuy sounds like a crockpot like half of Joe Rogan's guests these days, but isn't it obvious which foods make you chew or not? Compare yogurt to a bowl of vegetables.
- yial 2y agoSecretly, he just doesn’t think Joe Rogan listeners feed their kids enough raw vegetables.

- triceratops 2y ago> Guy sounds like a crockpot Ironic you can only make soft foods with those
- dddw 2y agoThis made me chuckle
- FuriouslyAdrift 2y agoPumpernickel bread... tough slices of meat?
- saalweachter 2y agoBones are the historical example, IIRC. Obviously there are downsides to letting small children chew on bones.
- gsich 2y agoDon't know. Carrots maybe?
- sxp 2y agoThis book is amazing. Two useful bits that really helped me were mastic gum and mouth tape. Both of them made it much easier for me to breath through my nose at night and avoid waking up with a dry mouth in the morning. There are also some interesting bits on breathwork and the scientific aspects of it. I was able to use those techniques to temporarily lower my heart rate to 45 BPM during meditation.
- soperj 2y ago> I was able to use those techniques to temporarily lower my heart rate to 45 BPM during meditation. What's your normal resting heart rate? Mine hovers around 39-40, so getting to 45 isn't really an issue.
- lm28469 2y agoUnless you're an elite marathon runner or something in this vein I think having a resting HR of 39 isn't the flex you think it is. You're either humble bragging or you need to ask a few questions to your doctor
- sxp 2y agoAn average of 60-70 according to watch.
- martinjacobd 2y agoAre you an endurance athlete? I was surprised at how quickly my rhr came down after I started cycling more even though I've never been very active in my life. It also (I think!) helped with my sleep apnea/general sleep problems, and I've always assumed a good bit of that was literally just being better at breathing.
