Dana Cohen comes up in 3 chapters across 2 episodes of The Higherside Chats Free Show, from August 2019 to March 2022.
Expatriation Fears and the Basics of Health Maintenance
Carlwood explores the psychological barriers to leaving the United States, comparing the current social climate to "frogs in boiling water." He reiterates the importance of health basics like hydration and references previous guests who have critiqued the shift toward "evidence-based medicine" as a tool for industry control.
Dr. Dana Cohen, Quench, and the Science of Optimum Hydration
Dr. Dana Cohen joins the program to discuss her book, Quench, co-authored with anthropologist Gina Bria. The work builds upon Dr. Gerald Pollack's research into the fourth phase of water, also known as EZ or structured water. Dr. Cohen, an integrative medicine specialist who trained under Dr. Robert Atkins, advocates for a holistic approach to hydration that moves beyond the standard eight-glasses-a-day recommendation.
Breatharianism Skepticism and Interview Conclusion
The interview concludes with a brief mention of breatharianism, the extreme claim that humans can live solely on sunlight and air, though both the host and Dr. Cohen remain highly skeptical. Dr. Cohen directs listeners to her website and her book, Quench, for more information on her clinical practice and hydration protocols. She plans to provide updates following her attendance at an international water conference in Germany.
