*This* Fresh, Natural RAW Dog Food Stopped My Dog's Seizures!? 🐶🥩🦴
As someone deeply invested in health optimization, I’m always thinking about how to extend that same vitality to my dogs. I’d heard about raw feeding for years, but it wasn’t until our pup Comet began having frequent seizures that we knew we had to rethink his nutrition.
We switched both our dogs to We Feed Raw six months ago, and the impact was nothing short of profound.
Comet hasn’t had a single seizure since, both dogs are thriving, and they go absolutely nuts for their new food.
This isn’t your typical kibble crap fulls of grains and GMO corn (dogs are largely carnivorous, not vegetarian!)—We Feed Raw uses human-grade meat, zero-carb fillers, and superfood-level ingredients like butcher-quality organ meat and finely ground bone, creating a fresh, biologically appropriate diet that mirrors what dogs are designed to eat.
Whether your pup is strong and healthy or facing serious challenges, this kind of ancestral nutrition has the power to improve their quality (and quantity) of life significantly.
Some of the benefits we’ve seen in our dogs after feeding them We Feed Raw include:
✅ Better digestion
✅ Fewer allergies and ear infections
✅ Smaller, healthier poops
✅ Increased energy and longevity
Additionally, We Feed Raw offers partial raw plans and convenient freeze-dried, scoop-and-serve options, so your dogs can enjoy all the health benefits of raw food without the mess, time, or prep work.

From My Test Kitchen to Your Table: Flawless, Nutrient-Dense Recipes You’ll Actually Use & Love! 👨🍳📚
I get about four cookbooks a month in the mail—and honestly, I’m shocked by how many of the recipes fall flat. Whether it’s flavor, texture, cook time, or just overall consistency, the end result often doesn’t deliver the kind of kitchen win you were hoping for.
Why? Because most publishers don’t take the time (or spend the money) to actually send each recipe to a test kitchen where it can be rigorously dialed in, ingredient by ingredient.
But let me tell you—a teaspoon versus a tablespoon of salt, or a quarter teaspoon versus a full teaspoon of baking powder, can make or break a dish.
That’s why I didn’t cut corners with my cookbooks, which are now available in a bundle!
Every single recipe in both of my cookbooks was tested, tweaked, and perfected in a professional test kitchen until it was just right—no guesswork, no kitchen disasters, just legit, nutrient-dense, flavor-packed recipes you and your family will love.
The result? A collection of mouthwatering, extremely unique recipes that actually WORK (and don’t result in a pile of burnt, disgusting oven goo).

Another pair of novelty socks, a generic grill set, or a bottle of bourbon he’ll stash and forget? Not exactly the stuff of legends…

📢 This Week in Health & Performance: What the Latest Research Says 🚀
💪 Take a Break, Gain Strength: According to science, a brief break from resistance training, such as 2–3 weeks off, won’t significantly affect muscle or strength for beginners (full study here).
🥤 Protein Timing Matters (Sort Of): 40 grams of protein post-workout is great for muscle gains, but don’t stress about timing—while the “anabolic window” refers to the 30–60 minutes after a workout when your muscles are thought to best absorb nutrients like protein for recovery, research shows that consistently getting enough protein throughout the day is what really matters (read the study).
🍽️ Strength Gains? Eat First: Pre-workout meals beat fasted training for max strength performance (study here).
🥦 Vegan Diets Decrease Muscle: A vegan diet can reduce skeletal muscle mass in active young women. I personally think this is less of a concern if the diet is carefully structured with sprouting, fermenting, and supplementation (read the study).
🧃 New Boost for Gains: Taking 1000mg of Urolithin A improves resistance training adaptations. I’ve been tossing four of Timeline's Urolithin A Longevity Strawberry Gummies (use code Ben10 here for 10% off your first order) in my post-workout smoothie and highly recommend trying it (study link here).
📌 Key Takeaway: Train smarter, eat with intention, supplement wisely, and don’t fear a deload week.
