Save 15% On Germ-fighting Bee Propolis
I've been traveling a ton lately, and one of the lesser-known airplane hacks I've been using is something called bee propolis. I spray this stuff in my mouth whenever I'm on an airplane or really when I'm anywhere there might be airborne pollutants.
Bee propolis has incredible germ-fighting properties. It's got over 300 different vitamins, minerals, and compounds in it. It's nature's ultimate defender and it tastes pretty dang good, too.
The company that makes it is called Beekeeper's Natural, and they've got plenty of other goodies on their site too—including Brain Fuel, Hive Superfood Complex, Superfood Cacao Honey, and much more.
Just go to BenGreenfieldFitness.com/beekeepers, and enter code: BEN at checkout to save 15%. You'll ‘bee' glad you did.

GENERAL QUESTION FOR Ben readers …
I recently read a blog piece, re: some easy-to-follow guidelines for fitness novices for weight loss.
Title was something like “3 simple rules to lose weight” (paraphrasing).
ONE of the rules was definitely “no complex carbs after sunset / dark”
Does this sound familiar? If so, can anyone link to the article / divulge the other 2 (?) guidelines…?
Thanks in advance.
Hi Ben,
Do you have a link or any more information on the NAD skin patch that you use? I’ve looked online but I haven’t found much.
Thanks,
Adam
