Intro to the Wizard Store

Today I am introducing The Wizard Store as a place for folks to learn about items I use in my daily life.

The primary purpose of this channel is provide information about the things I use and why so that others can consider incorporating them into their lives as well. A duty of a wizard is to share knowledge which benefits them, and this is one way that I do that.

The secondary purpose is to provide people inspired to support my work the opportunity to send me things I need. I'd like to move closer to a gift economy in my own life, and this moves me a step in that direction.

This short video gives a more personal explanation of what I'm envisioning:

Below you will find videos and descriptions of the ingredients I use every morning to make my Ketogenic Hot Chocolate. In the future these posts will contain a more extensive list of the things I use and a way of identifying things I need more urgently.

Some of these links are affiliate and provide me a small percentage of the cost of what you purchase, which helps pay for gas, mobile data and other things which are difficult to gift.

ORGANIC GRASSFED GHEE

Ghee is purified fat from butter which no longer contains proteins like casein and sugars like lactose which can cause inflammation or allergic reactions. It still contains all the fat soluble nutrients found in dairy such as Vitamin K. Ghee has very long shelf life even without refrigeration making it an ideal calorie source for the nomadic or offgrid lifestyles.

My preferred brand at the moment is Ancient Organics because it comes from grassfed cows which is critical for ensuring healthy fat and nutrient makeup.

You can learn more about the health benefits of Grassfed butter in this blog post.

MEDIUM CHAIN TRIGLYCERIDES

Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCTs) are fats which are quickly converted by the body into energy with very little effort. They allow an individual to enter ketosis, a highly advantageous state, immediately and easily. It often can takes days of fasting or avoiding carbohydrates and sugars to enter ketosis normally, so this is a powerful tool for health and high energy.

I use the Bulletproof™ XCT® Oil because it contains only the two most advantageous MCTs and is much cheaper than getting pure Caprylic Acid (the best MCT).

ORGANIC CHOCOLATE POWDER

Besides being delicious, chocolate is also an extremely healthy thing to have in your diet. I mix this with water and the Ghee and MCT Oil listed above to create my breakfast every morning.

Chocolate powder can tend to be moldy, which will likely counteract many of the benefits it provides, so I always buy mine from companies that I know do lab testing for mold toxins. Bulletproof™ Chocolate Powder is the brand I'm currently enjoying.

If you would like to order and send me any of these things to help me move towards living in a gift economy I would very grateful. You can use this address:
