Today we discuss how the gut plays a huge role in our brain function, mental clarity and decision making when it comes to pornography.Frank also talks about how our nervous system is negatively affected by this impulse and some of the best natural ways we can begin to positively improve our overall health and lifestyle. Ultimately if you think porn isn’t a bad thing, are not sure ‘if’ you are addicted, or know ‘why’ porn is bad to begin with, you should go back and listen to Frank in The Truth About Porn - Part 1 and Part 2 – which are Episode 109 and Episode 213 respectively.  "When you get healthier and clean up your gut, you think differently and see the world more efficiently. Not only will you see porn for what it really is, but you'll also see it as a damaging thing." — Frank Rich  Time Stamps00:33 - Welcome to the Strong By Design podcast! 00:57 - Meet today’s special guest, Frank Rich of ‘The Super Human Life’ podcast 04:00 - Frank’s podcast journey with us: How it all began 07:39 - Frank’s incredible transformation story 10:16 - Surfing for God: Discovering the Divine Desire Beneath Sexual Struggle 11:56 - Trials that shaped Frank’s mission to help others 15:28 - The hidden struggles and shortcomings of broken people 23:06 - How gut health connects to brain function and porn addiction 26:50 - Unlocking the healing power of fasting 35:10 - Does healing your gut change how you see porn? 40:58 - What role does the nervous system play in all this? 45:16 - Dive into the effects of ice baths 54:26 - Frank’s toughest challenge in helping others 58:08 - How to become the best version of yourself 01:07:12 - Addressing pornography and becoming a better parent 01:15:30 - Connect with Coach Frank Rich on social media and learn more about his work 01:17:43 - Please share and leave ratings & reviews for the SBD podcast  Resources:·         Rebuilt Recovery·         The Super Human Life Podcast Connect with Frank:·         Instagram·         Facebook·         YouTubeSupport the showConnect w/ Critical Bench: YoutubeFacebookInstagramCriticalBench.comCriticalNutritionLabs.comStrongByDesignPodcast.com
