Broadcasting live four days a week worldwide, from the sunny beaches of Southern California, this is ExtremeHealthRadio.com.

David: This is David Avocado Wolfe of DavidWolfe.com and you are listening to Justin and Kate on Extreme Health Radio.

Justin: Well, thank you so much, everybody, for joining us on another show, another episode. I feel like it’s been weeks and maybe months since we’ve been here.

Kate: I feel like that too, very much so. I’m very glad to be back.

Justin: I know. Doesn’t it feel like it’s been a long time?

Kate: Yeah. I missed this.

Justin: I know, right?

Kate: Time is weird.

Justin: Time is weird.

Kate: It feels like it’s either yesterday or it’s been years, you know? It doesn’t ever seem what it truly is to me.

Justin: How long does it feel like since we’ve been behind the mic?

Kate: Two weeks.

Justin: Two weeks?

Kate: Mm-hmm.

Justin: Yeah, it does, doesn’t it?

Kate: Yeah.

Justin: Yeah, for me, it feels like about two weeks. But it’s really just been about a week, right?

Kate: Yeah.

Justin: A lot has happened in our lives in a week. I’ll tell you that.

Kate: Yes, yes, very much so.

Justin: Yeah, so thank you, everybody, for joining us. This is Episode 187 and it’s a lot of fun to be back. We’re so glad to be back with you guys. This is Episode 187 and it is a day before my birthday.

Kate: That’s right.

Justin: That’s right.

Kate: That’s right.

Justin: That’s right.

Kate: Tomorrow we are going to go celebrate you and have a good grass-fed or wild dinner, whatever…

Justin: Celebrate my nativity.

Kate: Not divinity.

Justin: Yeah, my birth.

Kate: Yes.

Justin: And that should be fun. We’re going to get some… What are we going to do? Get some wild salmon or are we going to get…?

Kate: I’m going to let you make this choice.

Justin: I get to choose, huh?

Kate: Grass-fed burgers? Wherever you want to go tomorrow, it’s on me.

Justin: I love it. All right, that sounds good. And what else is going on? This is, for reference, December 8, 2013.

Kate: Correct.

Justin: One day before my birthday and this is Episode 187 and what else is going on? Oh, if you would like to join the show, lots of different ways to do that. I forgot how to do a show, actually.

Kate: I was like “Where are you going with this?”

Justin: Yeah. If you’d like to join the show, lots of different ways to do that. You can go and listen live at ExtremeHealthRadio.com/Live or you could email us, [email protected]…

Kate: Or [email protected].

Justin: And you could also Skype in and call in if you like to use Skype. Our ID is Extreme Health Radio. We take live calls on our Free For All Friday shows. And if you’d like to call in, you can use your cell phone, although cell phones don’t produce the best quality calls, but you can do that, 949-505-9585, if you’d like to join the show.

Kate: You need to get back into the swing of things.

Justin: I know. I’m all screwed up.

Kate: I do too. I feel like I’m mellow-yellow.

Justin: I know, right? And if you would like to support us during the holiday season, we’d love to have you do that through Amazon. Lots of great products on that site if you’re going to do any Christmas shopping or anything really—it doesn’t matter what you buy—and you can do that on Amazon, ExtremeHealthRadio.com/Amazon.

Kate: Yes, please keep in mind always, but especially the holiday season. It really keeps us going with the small commission we get from every purchase.

Justin: It does. It’s really good. And like I said, you don’t have to buy anything health related. You can buy anything you’d like. The trick is remembering to do it and go through our link every time you make a purchase because sometimes you’re off doing your thing and you forget. I had to remind a couple friends to do that recently. So yeah, that’s a great way to support us. A lot of people are doing that and we really appreciate you guys helping out and supporting us that way if you can’t donate or anything like that. So helps to keep the show free and it helps it so that other people don’t have to pay and all that so it’s a great way to support what we’re doing here. We had a lot go on this week, didn’t we?

Kate: We had a lot going on, but all I’m thinking about at this very moment is the new ice cream I’m obsessed with. To be honest, I can’t stop thinking about this coconut-based ice cream in our refrigerator right now.

Justin: Oh, isn’t it amazing?

Kate: Every break I’m going to go out and get a scoop of it.

Justin: There are only two breaks.

Kate: Oh shoot.

Justin: Looks like you’re going to have lots of scoops.

Kate: Looks like I’m going to have a brain freeze. What is it, Coconut Bliss?

Justin: Coconut Bliss, yeah.

Kate: Oh man. If you guys haven’t heard of them, check out Coconut Bliss ice cream. It’s based out of coconut products like the… I think there’s coconut meat and water in a couple of them. But you would swear there was dairy in it. It tastes just… Oh, it’s amazing.

Justin: It’s creamy and amazing.

Kate: Yes.

Justin: The only drawback is that it’s not raw.

Kate: Right.

Justin: I’d prefer it to be raw, but it’s organic and no dairy, no soy, no eggs, right?

Kate: It’s vegan. No eggs.

Justin: It’s incredible.

Kate: It’s incredible.

Justin: We just about went through a whole container last night, didn’t we?

Kate: Well, we bought one yesterday and we went through it by this morning, and then I thought, “I’m going to go get the Arctic Mint flavor,” and when I went there, there was of course three flavors that looked good, so I came home and stocked up the fridge. But they’re like a little tiny… what, a pint size, maybe?

Justin: Mm-hmm.

Kate: Holy cow though. Those are trouble.

Justin: Galactic Mint, isn’t it?

Kate: Oh, what did I call it, Arctic? Oh, Galactic.

Justin: A little different.

Kate: A little. It’s amazing. I just can’t stop thinking about it.

Justin: Yeah, it’s really cool because when you eat this way, there are options, especially in today’s world with the paleo and with the raw food and how that’s coming along and the vegan. It’s really cool because there are great options out there for people that want to eat healthy. And you would never know that…

Kate: It’s so not boring anymore. I think people thought it was so boring at the beginning or that things didn’t taste right. But you’re right. I mean you have a scoop of this… I don’t know many people that would be able to tell there wasn’t dairy in it. It tastes that creamy and that… The consistency is so right on. Same with some of those wraps we’ve been doing. I mean they’ve come leaps and bounds.

Justin: Oh yeah.

Kate: In how they taste and technology and the food is getting better, I think.

Justin: It is. Yeah, I love it. I love… Like there are some raw ice creams that are just phenomenal.

Kate: There are some raw phenomenal ice creams.

Justin: I’ve even seen people do raw, organic, vegan… What do you call those ice cream cones?

Kate: Ooh.

Justin: I have no idea what they make those out of.

Kate: I’ve never heard of such a thing.

Justin: A raw vegan ice cream on a raw cone like that. It’s all done in the dehydrator. And have you seen the video that Kombucha Mama has? I don’t know if I’ve sent it to you, where she does a root beer float?

Kate: No.

Justin: It’s done with, I guess, raw vegan ice cream and with all these superfoods in it and then she does it in this kombucha that’s got all this fizz, but she flavors it to be like root beer.

Kate: So she infuses it with root beer flavor?

Justin: Yeah, so actually she went to like an ice cream parlor that serves this stuff. It’s like a raw root beer float. Can you imagine?

Kate: You know, I feel like she mentioned it when we had her on the show. I think she talked about that. But yeah, ooh… We’ve got to hook up with her. That would be amazing to try that out and see what you can do.

Justin: And get your kombucha fizzing up and it’s another world!

Kate: I love food.

Justin: Oh man. So we had a pretty big week, didn’t we?

Kate: We had a huge week.

Justin: We got back from… For those of you who don’t know, we were gone for about a week. How long? Was it about six days?

Kate: Six days.

Justin: We flew and went to the Dayton Medical Center in Miami, Florida.

Kate: Sunny Isles Beach.

Justin: Incredible place. Incredible place. And we had a workup because we are going on a retreat with them and it’s going to be a cleansing retreat. That’s going to happen next month.

Kate: Yes, so excited!

Justin: It’s like a 12-day thing and so what happens is that they’re so thorough there, like they’re so particular and they want to know everything about you, so we went for three days and they have the…

Kate: Actually, I think we stayed an extra day. Yeah, four days.

Justin: Yeah, we stayed an extra day. And they do everything. They do blood tests. They too, what 17 vials of blood? I’m surprised we’re still alive.

Kate: I think the ice cream replenished my body after that.

Justin: Wasn’t that crazy?

Kate: Yeah, that made me a little nerve-wracked, but I got through that and I’ll talk about that in a minute, but yeah, they did the 17 vials of blood…

Justin: What else did they do? They have the far-infrared sauna there.

Kate: We had acupuncture and cupping.

Justin: Acupuncture and cupping. And then we had an interview or about an hour-long work-over with the doctor, the director there, Dr. Dayton. He’s been in the holistic alternative medicine field for 40 years and so he went over lots of different things. He did some crazy testing with us.
