My wife Donna has convinced me to transform my eating habits from a primarily vegetarian fare to a 90 day carnivore experiment. Please put aside for now all the hubbub of carnivore/veg commentary. We can talk about that in a separate entry.

For now a personal health purpos is to renew mitochondrial health, specifically in nervous system targeting olfactory nerves renewal. I have been trying a variety of healing and renewal practices over the past four years, a prior story. See that reference above? A separate Entry.

Among the foods I am encouraged to consume daily (sources later) is the ELEMENTS mineral salt powders dissolved in liquids. The watermelon, citrus, raspberry packets dissolve into fresh drinking water. I make two quarts at a time in mason jars, one packet of salts.

Another round of flavors has recently caught my attention — the chocolate flavored packets: 1. Chocolate Chai, 2. Chocolate Raspberry, 3. Chocolate Mint. I added a packet to cool water. Not too good. Donna told me about the carnivore recipe of adding a chocolate packet to hot cream or milk. The weather was cool in February so this recipe became a treat thanks to that community. However, as I paid attention to the flavors I wondered about the Chocolate Chai.

After listening to Andrew Huberman’s podcasts I was first informed of ELEMENTS mineral salts. I understand his protocols for heightening positive dopamine cycles by limiting his coffee intake to a rule of thumb that includes “coffee after first morning daylight into the eyes.” As an authentic chai devotee who loves to make his own chai spices and brew based on Kumar Pallana’s masterful recipe, I was curious. Is there a possible variation that certainly includes dairy but no black tea or sugar?

BEcausee of Andrew Huberman, I added coffee.

BEcause of Kumar, I added ghee (purified butter, for non-Sanskrit followers here)

My solution is the following recipe made in pictures: Check it out! It is surprisingly delicious, healthful, hearty, and satisfying. Don’t think of original chai. Just appreciate this chai for what it is — an Andrew Huberman Chai. Or maybe just AH Chai. Ok, to resist the inclination of silly banter, I give you a current favorite recipe in pictures-

END of PART ONE.

Pls look at PART TWO, Huberman Chai
