life.
Listeners of WE ARE THE SHT ;) that love the show mention:Recently, I received a question at a seminar: "What is the best meat to consume on an animal-based diet?" In other words, what is the best meat to consume overall? To answer this question, I've created this short video. Before diving into specifics, let's focus on the primary principle: eating real food and prioritizing animal foods in a way that suits your long-term dietary needs. Initially, you can start with the meats you enjoy and that work well for you. Once you've embraced animal foods fully, it's advisable to gravitate towards the best choices. Monogastric Animals When it comes to animals with one stomach (known as monogastric animals), such as pigs, chickens, fish, and even humans, it's crucial to prioritize quality. Their simple digestive systems tend to retain the substances, including toxins, from the food they consume. Therefore, investing in high-quality pork, chicken, and fish is essential whenever possible. Ruminant Animals On the other hand, ruminant animals, like cows and bison, have a multi-chambered digestive system that transforms plant matter into nutrient-rich flesh. This process results in essential amino acids, vitamins (such as B12 and iron), and minerals. Ruminant meats also tend to have a more favorable fatty acid composition, with a better balance of omega-6 to omega-3 ratios. Additionally, ruminant animals detoxify plant toxins and environmental toxins, making their meat healthier overall. Ruminant animals have a lower environmental footprint compared to monogastric animals. They graze on natural vegetation, require less water, and contribute to soil health through rotational grazing practices. Incorporating meats from ruminant animals into your diet can support regenerative farming systems, which aim to restore soil health and promote biodiversity. By making sustainable choices, you contribute to ecologically conscious food production. Ancestral Wisdom It is also worth noting that indigenous cultures historically thrived on diets that included a significant amount of herbivore and ruminant meat. These traditional diets have been associated with good health, robust physiques, and the absence of chronic diseases. By including these types of meats in your carnivore diet, you align with the dietary patterns that humans have followed for thousands of years. Summary - Eat Meat. In summary, when it comes to the best meat to consume, animal foods in general are recommended as real food should be the priority. As you optimize your choices, beef, bison, and other ruminant meats are ideal and should comprise the majority of your meat consumption. Pork, chicken, eggs, fish, and seafood can make up a smaller part of your diet.
Here's What Can Happen When You Take Apple Cider Vinegar Start adding Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) to your daily protocol, and here's what will probably happen: Your digestion will get better. On all levels. Bowel movements will be more consistent. Constipation and diarrhea will improve. Heartburn will go away. Blood sugar levels will improve. You'll have less dramatic blood sugar spikes, less insulin secretion, which translates into feeling better, having an easier time sticking to your diet, and fat loss. You'll have slightly more energy. Because ACV activates the AMPK pathway. Which basically helps your body create energy endogenously. I'm gonna explain HOW to add ACV to your daily routine in a progression based way... but first... A Little More Context When I went through Nutritional Therapy school over 12 years ago, one of the first things we learned to improve digestion and manage blood sugar handling was to take apple cider vinegar. I remember thinking, “This is ridiculous. How can taking apple cider vinegar be so good for you? It's just vinegar?!” But sure enough, when I put it into practice, my acid reflux improved, my digestion got better, my bowel movements got better… and every single client I had implement the same protocols experienced the same exact benefits. Recently I had a client and friend reach out: “I have acid reflux. It just started out of nowhere. What do I do?” I told this person: “Eat clean today. And take ACV just before meals. Get back to me when you notice some changes.” The next day, his reflux was gone. Why Apple Cider Vinegar is Good Vinegar increases stomach acidity. Your stomach is meant to be acidic. This helps it activate a protein digesting enzyme called pepsin. It also helps it disinfect and neutralize pathogens. If you have acid reflux, it's usually an indication of too little stomach acid. With too little stomach acid, your digestive system “backs up” into the esophagus. ACV before meals helps you digest proteins better. Check out my previous post and podcast on How to Support Digestion. Vinegar reduces blood sugar spikes and insulin spikes. The acetic acid helps make muscles more receptive to glucose, uptaking glucose more efficiently, and pulling excess glucose from the bloodstream. This will minimize your blood sugar spike and get you back into a fat burning state relatively faster after a meal. ACV before meals helps with blood sugar regulation. Vinegar activates the AMPK pathway helping to create energy. The AMPK pathway is sensitive to low energy and low calories. When activated, it prompts your cells to make energy endogenously (internally) through stored glycogen and/or fat stores. ACV in the morning and/or before workouts can help with energy creation. Benefits to Your Health Journey Because of these improvements in digestion and blood sugar handling: Vinegar helps with satiety. The stronger your digestion, the more nutrients you get out of your food and the more your body gets what it needs. Your body will naturally give you signals of being satisfied, making you less hungry less often, and less susceptible to snacking and deviating from your nutrition. Vinegar helps with nutrient sufficiency. The stronger your digestion, the more nutrients you get out of the food and the more you become nutrient sufficient over time. This is crucial for long-term health. Vinegar can help with fat loss. Less blood sugar spikes means less storage of energy into fat stores. Less blood sugar spikes also means less cravings and urges, as mentioned before. Apple Cider Vinegar progression. Get yourself some organic apple cider vinegar. It can be Bragg's but it doesn't have to be. I specify organic because apples are on the EWG's Dirty Dozen Pesticides in Produce. Also, keep in mind, you don't have to be perfect with this. If you just committed to the first step below, it would be a huge win, and you could stop there. Start with 2 tbsp first thing in the morning with a glass of water (or you can shoot it). This will prime your digestive system for the rest of the entire day. It will also get your body creating energy internally for the rest of the day. If you did nothing else and just did this, you'd see some great improvements. If that's easy, next go to before meals. To take your ACV support to the next level, take 2 tbsp just before each main meal. As a bonus, take some ACC before workouts. Taking ACV in a fasted state reinforces your body's ability to create energy on its own. If you really want to be neurotic, take ACV before snacks. If you have the ability to have ACV on hand at all times, take 1 tbsp just before snacks. Finally, if you're not ACV'd out by the end of the day, a little ACV before bed can help with blood sugar regulation during sleep, which will translate into better sleep. Commit to what works for you. Do it for a while. Then build on it and add to it if you want. But you don't have to do everything all at once. Keep it Real.

I got this question recently, and it's a great question... I'm all about taking collagen ever since you said it was important. But how much should I be taking? You know the importance of collagen. Many of you take it religiously. But how much is optimal? I've got a number for you now. My recommendation USED to be any amount! However, now based on current research and personal and client experience, here's my updated recommendations up front. Below I have more detail about why this is important and how I came to these numbers. Ideal Collagen Per Day 20 grams of collagen for every 100 pounds of ideal bodyweight. OR, for an equation you can move the decimal point in your weight 2 spots to the left or multiply by .01: (body weight) x (.01) x 20g = grams of collagen per day: At 150lbs body weight = 20 g x 1.5 = 30g of collagen. At 175lbs body weight = 20 g x 1.75 = 35g of collagen. At 200lbs body weight = 20 g x 2.0 = 40g of collagen. and so on. And honestly, I would say the more the better. This is the amount that is IDEAL. And yet, with this specific supplement, MORE IS ACTUALLY BETTER. So in some ways think of this as a MINIMUM. BTW, when I say 20 grams I literally mean grams of protein when looking on the nutrition label: In this example (which is the multi collagen I take), to get my 40g of collagen, I'd need to take about 4 scoops In this example (Biotics collagen), the scoop is way bigger, so to get my 40g of collagen, I only need 2 scoops. In this example (Vital Proteins collagen), the scoop is also way bigger, so to get my 40g of collagen, I only need 2 scoops. What Are Best Types of Collagen? Collagen Types There are 29 types of collagen that have been identified, but most supplements will contain 1 or more of the following: Type 1 — Collagen found in skin/hide, tendon, scales and bones of cows, pigs, chicken and fish Type 2 — Formed in cartilage and typically derived from poultry Type 3 — Fibrous protein found in bone, tendon, cartilage and connective tissues of cows, pigs, chicken and fish Types 1, 2 and 3 comprise 90% of the collagen found in your body. So look for a "multi" collagen that has AT LEAST these 3. More types are even better. Hydrolyzed May Be Best Also, the "hydrolyzed" version may be the best way to go. Hydrolyzation refers to a processing technique that breaks the molecules down into smaller fragments, thereby enhancing intestinal absorption. It's pre-broken down and mixes easier in liquids, vs the gelatin which has to be mixed in a hot liquid. I recommend going with a hydrolyzed collagen for supplementation, and then gelatin for cooking. Which Collagen to Buy I love the hydrolyzed one I sell through Biotics which has types 1, 2, and 3. These are flavored (chocolate or vanilla) and are great for coffee and desserts. This is a good unflavored hydrolyzed one off of Amazon. It contains types 1, 2, 3, 5, and 10. Or any hydrolyzed collagen with at least types 1, 2, and 3. Here's HOW I do it: 10g of collagen for every cup of coffee. Throughout a day I get 30 to 40g of collagen just from drinking coffee. 10g of collagen after a workout. Because tendons and ligaments are NOT soft tissue like muscle, it takes much more effort and much more time to work collagen into joints, ligaments, tendons and cartilage. BUT if you have good blood flow to your joints and tendons (like after a workout), the collagen will make it's way into those areas easier. 1 scoop of collagen whenever I think about it! Here's Why Collagen is the most common and abundant protein in your body. It accounts for approximately 30% of the total protein in your body. One of its primary purposes is to provide structure to allow tissues to stretch and flex while maintaining tissue integrity. Because collagen is 1/3 of your body's protein, this is how I came to the number of 20g to 30g per 100 lbs of ideal bodyweight. Collagen is found in every part of your body, but especially your skin, connective tissues like tendons, ligaments, and cartilage, your bones, organs, blood vessels (makes them elastic), hair and nails. Collagen helps with wrinkles. Since most of us are in the 2nd half of our lives (the best half!), collagen can be the game changer that makes a difference with our skin. Even tho personally I feel like I see more wrinkles in the mirror, I do get compliments on my skin all the time! Collagen is crucial for those of us that workout (which should be all of us ;) Since it's the main component of bones, ligaments, tendons, etc., supplementing with collagen regularly helps you recover from workouts better, helps with the adaptation that you're looking for, and helps prevention and recovery from injuries. Collagen has been proven to be healthful on other levels. It can improve sleep, reduce joint pain, improve gut health, glucose tolerance and blood pressure, reduce cardiovascular damage, lower your risk of osteoporosis, and lower inflammation and oxidative damage from all sources. Balance your meat with collagen. Our ancestors more than likely made use of every part of the animal, consuming everything that could be consumed, and finishing with simmering the bones to get every last bit of nutrition out of the carcass as possible. Our ancestors naturallly (and probably inadvertently) got a lot more collagen than we do in this modern world. The primary amino acids in collagen — glycine, proline and hydroxyproline — make up the matrix of connective tissue. Beef contains very little of these amino acids, so eating only muscle meat will not provide enough amino acids to allow you to build strong connective tissue and maintain bone strength. Supplementing with collagen is the key. What do you think?

I get this question A LOT. I got it during a recent talk and guess what... I WAS ABLE TO ANSWER IT LIKE A CHAMP. And now you can too. Cow's can't catch a break! First there was the nutritional attack using saturated fat and cholesterol. Now they are drinking too much water?! What Cows Actually Do TODAY cows and bison and other ruminants do pretty much the same thing that they have ever since they've been on this planet. Even in conventional farming situations they are raised on pastures for most of their lives: They move across the pasture, eating natural vegetation, transforming the vegetation into their flesh for food for omnivores and carnivores All the while adding back water, nutrients, and microbes back to the soil, fertilizing and rebuilding the soil. Most of their water comes from the water that naturally falls on the land. most ot their water comes from the vegetation they eat - just like it always has! False Numbers The numbers typically quoted FOR THE water consumption for cattle and beef are almost always exaggerated. The water amounts typically quoted are the estimated total amount of water consumed by the cattle over a lifetime. What you don't hear is that the majority of the water cows consume is water that would be there anyways, that falls on the land naturally through precipitation, absorbed by vegetation, without irrigation. Just like it always has! A small % of the water is from what we would consider to be precious water resources and IRRIGATED water. Cattle Water Consumption 95% of cow water consumption is green water! Less than 5% of water consumption by cows is blue water. Cattle Advantages Cattle occupy land in it's pristine shape, the land does not have to be modified… In fact they occupy land that isn't fit for crops Cattle rebuild the soil. An estimated 30% of the water they consume is put back into the environment. Pound for pound, beef is one of the most nutritious foods you can consume. Crop Disadvantages The way most crops are farmed, they are NOT rebuilding the soil… in fact they do the opposite. Through repetitive farming, most crops create hard impacted dirt, which does not hold water and contributes to runoff. In a lot of situations, YOU HAVE TO MANIPULATE THE LAND to make it fit for crops. make it flatter. which can contribute to runoff and soil depletion. Plants typically require massive amounts of fertilizer, glyphosophate, insecticides, and herbicides. Nutritionally, there is no comparison! Pound for pound beef beats any crop there is in protein, vitamins, minerals… except carbohydrates! NOW this isn't an argument against crops! It's an argument FOR beef! It's an argument in defense of beef! I truly believe there's a push for you to NOT eat meat because makes you strong. If you want to be strong, clear minded, vibrant, and resilient, EAT MEAT. As you're doing it know that it isn't just good for you, it's good for all those around you and it's good for the planet. Let me know what you think of this information!

Reject the Reset! I put this video together with a lot of love, because I care about you!
I was honored to be interviewed by Angie Peacock (of Medicating Normal documentary, and also one of our other LIVE recorded calls). Please take a moment to check out this conversation! Lots of great gems! There is Hope! With health, anything is possible. EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE. 100% of the time, when you improve your health, you improve how you feel. Challenges and Trauma as Allies. Look at your challenges and trauma as allies in your journey. They can be the catalyst for positive health changes, they give you skepticism, and they make you ask questions. How to Make Health Change. Vision for self and health. Connect with a vision for yourself and health. What changes do you want to experience? What is possible? List out the options. What are the things that you could work on to move in that direction? What are the things you know you need to work on? Start simple. Then start with just 1 thing. Something simple. That you can do most days if not every day. Here's the Good News: You WILL experience changes. Look for them to show up. Then you know you're on the right track. Once you start to notice the results, for most of these health habits, they may be subtle, but they are CUMULATIVE OVER TIME. Consistency is Key. PR TIP: Focus on your current habits, not your current results. Small habits over time add up to big changes. PR TIP: You get what you do consistently. Avoid Perfectionist Mindset! Avoid thinking you have to go to extremes, or go “all or nothing.” Keep it simple and doable. Simple Things to do with Nutrition Learn how to read labels. Embrace animal foods and protein. Protein is the most satiating of all the macro nutrients, and the most nutritious. Get your first meal of the day spot on! That will give you momentum. Simple Things you can do with Fitness Start with a walk in the morning. Habit stack it with getting some natural light and fresh air. This is GREAT for some "own mind time." Add a walk in the evening when you're ready. Add movement breaks throughout the day. Simple things you can do for Sleep Get early morning natural light into your eyes, without sunglasses. Get brightness throughout the day. Minimize your exposure to brightness at night. How to focus on brain health: Exercise! Walks are powerful. Train your body to be metabolically flexible and use fat for fuel. Do this by eating real food keeping carbohydrates relatively smaller compared to other things allowing natural space between your meals with no snacking. Get natural light every day = great for mitochondria. Prioritize your sleep. Take a quality creatine monohydrate. Buy this creatine, https://amzn.to/3LJ1ehB. Here's a great article on creatine https://chrismasterjohnphd.com/tools/2017/12/20/consuming-creatine-in-foods-and-supplements Get choline! Eat animal foods and egg yolks. Minimize TV. DO build social connections and play games. Why work with a coach? A good coach can be a shortcut to health. A good coach supports you. A good coach helps you hold yourself accountable. How to find a good coach: It has to feel right. It has to make sense. The coach has to seem to care. A good coach gives you autonomy and doesn't just tell you what to do.
What is meditation? ✅ Meditation is awareness. It's practicing awareness. ❌ Meditation is NOT about emptying the mind, or not thinking, or concentrating really hard. ❌ You don't have to block out thoughts or create a special state of mind or be peaceful or calm. How to meditate. ⦿ Find a spot that feels good and where you're relatively undistracted. ⦿ Determine how much time you want to sit. ⦿ Choose something to be aware of. Use current moment sensory experiences such as listening to sounds, feeling the body, or focusing on the breath. ⦿ Sit comfortably, but calm and assertive. ⦿ I recommend keeping your eyes open. ⦿ Start your timer. ⦿ Be aware of sounds by listening. ⦿ Notice yourself thinking. ⦿ Come back and listen. ⦿ Do this over and over. Why meditate? • There are a TON of benefits that come from meditating regularly: • Physical - destress, reduce aging, boost immune system • Mental - calm mind, improve focus, productivity • Emotional - intuition, creativity • Which all lead to overall wellbeing and happiness When to meditate? • Mornings are ideal. • Habit stack AFTER something you already do or • BEFORE something you want to reward yourself with.

You are meant to have influence. "Resilience is a choice. Choose wisely...you are not only affecting your life, but those who "watch" you." - Kris Yagel When you're young it's about how hard you can go at life. How hard you can push. You tend to sacrifice long-term happiness and health for short-term successes. But as you age you realize it's about staying in the game and showing up at your best consistently so that you can maximize the time you have here. A big part of this is developing friendships and communities, and interacting with your fellow human beings! NOW is the time to stand up for what you believe. To be vocal about what you believe and what you care about. And to TALK TO PEOPLE. Insert yourself. If you see someone hurting or needing help, say something. If you see someone doing great things - say something! Start up conversations as much as you possibly can! Check out this podcast where I chat with my West Point classmate and friend Kris Yagel.

What a great LIVE chat we had with Dr. Bryan "Step." There are a lot of gems in this talk, I'll summarize some of the key points below. PLUS I have time stamps for specific topics (see below). Please watch this video and take time to scroll through the notes below! "You can't unlearn what you learn. And therefore your brain starts thinking differently!" -- Bryan Step Root cause is looking at the cause of symptoms and conditions, VERSUS what mainstream medicine typically does - address symptoms with a pill. With root cause, things are so much simpler! Instead of complexity, you get "simplexity." So what is functional medicine? "Functional medicine is a systems biology–based approach that focuses on identifying and addressing the root cause of disease. Each symptom or differential diagnosis may be one of many contributing to an individual's illness." The Institute for Functional Medicine VS traditional conventional medicine. Conventional medicine is GRAET at working with injuries, surgeries, etc. But has a horrible track record with chronic degenerative diseases that are caused by nutrition and lifestyle factors. Dr. Step came up with a great acronym to help us self-assess our health, and therefore, figure out where to optimize: S - sleep and stress. E - Elimination habits and hydration. X - Exercise, how much, what's ideal. Mindfulness based physical activity Tune in to find out how to put this acronym into practice daily!!

You've worked HARD for your progress all year long. The reality is, the holidays are where most people slip, and sometimes even slide, never getting back to their baseline. DON'T LET THIS BE YOU! Remember - a little intention goes a long ways! Check out this video where I talk you through some strategies for maintaining your gains. You can also listen wherever you listen to podcasts including Spotify. Here's how to maintain your progress that you've worked so hard for: Create a vision for self and health. What progress are you proud of? What are you absolutely committed to avoiding to maintain that progress? What are you allowing yourself to be flexible with? Identify YOUR obstacles. What are your known obstacles during Thanksgiving and Christmas? Write them out and then come up with simple solutions. Visualize the holiday season and situations. Think about all the situations that take you out of your norm - car ride, plane flight, staying in a hotel, staying at someone else's place, Thanksgiving dinner, Christmas dinner, parties, etc... walk yourself through each situation and think about what you need to have or do to be prepared. Stick to your health routine. No matter where you go and no matter how much you allow yourself to indulge, if you stick to the things that keep you healthy and make you feel good, at least you have that going for you! Try to get early wins in the day! This will give you momentum to make better decisions, or at least cancel out the damage from going off plan. Wake up, go for a walk, sit and meditate, maybe get a little workout in, and have a perfect first meal of the day. Have SHT Approved alternatives for your favorite holiday dishes. This is super helpful especially if you are hosting dinners or parties. I have a ton of recipes. I even have a Brutally Simple Thanksgiving recipe book I put out to my community. I might even give it to you if you ask me :) You'll notice I reference a bunch of other resources in my video including: Maintaining Gains worksheet My Perfect Day visualizing exercise. Fridge note!

BTW, maybe you're not self sabotaging. Maybe you're just making changes, and your body is resisting those changes. And maybe that is an uncomfortable process to experience. It's all good! This video was inspired by a conversation I had with a client. You can watch it here or you can also listen anywhere you listen to podcasts including Spotify. Here's the gist.... When you make changes to your nutrition, even if they are good changes, you're probably going to experience what I like to call an "adjustment." Your body is used to being where it's at. It's comfortable. And it's going to resist. You usually experience this adjustment as physiological symptoms. Physiological symptoms almost always influence your mental and emotional state because your body is trying to get you to do something to remedy the symptoms. The takeaway is this - have some compassion for yourself. When you're making positive changes to your nutrition, don't be so hard on yourself for experiencing physiological symptoms. And don't be so hard on yourself for feeling mental and emotional around food. It may not be "you," it may just be your body messing with you! Here's what to do... First, deal with the physiological. Structure you daily meals to stabilize blood sugar. Even space. Start with evenly spaced meals - breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Protein. Emphasize protein at your main meals. Carbs. Have some carbs but not too much. Be prepared. Have as snack available for in between meals just in case you feel yourself having a "moment." Next, deal with the mental and emotional. Every decision you make is initially driven by a thought about making the decision. If you can be there for the initial thought when it happens, you have a chance to work with it. The best way is to this is to be present. Be as present as you can with every decision you make. Celebrate being there for the decision! Because whether you're able to make the right decision or not, the fact you were there is powerful. The more you can be present for the decisions, the more likely youy'll make decisions that serve you. ALWAYS inroduce self compassion. Consider your desire to go off plan was in part driven by your physiology which was driven by the changes that your'e making… which in some ways means you're on the right track!!!! I'm mainly talking nutrition here. Specifically transitioning from a less appropriate way of eating to a better way of eating with higher nutrition, lower carbs, and less frequency of meals. But you can take these lessons and apply them to a lot of nutrition and lifestyle changes. Here's how you can support me and us!!! Leave us a rating and review! They make such a difference!

Carnivore and animal-based diets are really popular these days. And for good reason - for a lot of people they get results. But you want to make sure you're doing it right. So whether you've tried it in the past or are just curious, you'll get a lot out of this video or audio. We put a progression together to make it EASY to transition in and out of an animal-based diet… while at the same time learning a LOT about yourself. So what is an animal based diet?
Many people try to heal themselves with changing their diet. But have you ever considered going full carnivore? Here's the deal… It may sound crazy, but at the same time it makes complete sense. Focus on nutrients. Focus on fat burning. And simplify the diet so that you can figure out what is contributing to your symptoms. Michelle Hurn is a registered and licensed dietitian with eleven years of clinical experience. While practicing in the hospital setting, she saw this huge disconnect from the nutrition guidelines she was required to teach, and the declining health of her patients. She had her own health issues, which sent her on a path of experimentation and self-discovery, going against everything she had learned in the medical field. Today Michelle looks, feels and performs better than she ever has. She's happy. She is an accomplished endurance athlete. And she wrote a book! “The Dietitian's Dilemma.” It is an AMAZING read. So whether you're completely confused about how to eat, relatively confident, or just want to add to your overall wisdom, I'm sure you'll get some great information from this interview. You can watch the YouTube video here or listen anywhere you listen to podcasts including Spotify. Some things we discuss: Diet and mental and emotional disorders. Balancing blood sugar. The importance of protein, muscle mass, and working out. Protein recommendations. Athlete recommendations. How to consume plants. And questions from our community: What about meat, saturated fat, and cholesterol? What concerns are there for women? How do you support digestion? What pushback do you get from the medical community? Time stamps: 00:24:25 balancing blood sugar. 00:25:38 the importance of protein and muscle mass as we age. 00:28:51 what are YOUR recommendations for protein? 00:32:32 what about cholesterol and heart disease? 00:34:27 LDL may actually be good for you! 00:37:19 can you eat too much meat and cholesterol? 00:39:24 what advice do you have when consuming plants? 00:42:58 how do you fuel your workouts? how do you eat as an athlete? 00:46:18 debunking myths. 00:47:13 concerns for women? 00:49:42 menapause, premenapause 00:49:55 what about digestion? 00:51:54 do you get pushback from your medical community collegues and counterparts? 00:55:21 what studies are available to back up this way of eating? 00:55:36 Michelle, what do you have going on? how can we support you? 01:02:33 Chandler asks “do you try to educate medical professionals? how receptive are they?” Here's how you can support me and us!!!

Listen in to our awesome chat with Allen Williams, 6th generation family farmer, founding partner of Grass Fed Insights LLC, and regenerative agriculture expert! Agriculture is the science, art, or practice of cultivating the soil, producing crops, and raising livestock and in varying degrees the preparation and marketing of the resulting products. If you want to live your most amazing life, and if you want to support your health and the future of this planet in the best way possible, education and understanding in agriculture is so powerful that once you begin down the regenerative path, you will never turn back. With inflation on the rise, supply chains being disrupted, energy becoming more expensive, and food scarcity becoming more of an issue, it's more important now than ever to be less dependent on the modern food system. But how do we do it as a consumer? Among many of the things we'll discuss:

After his parents split up, Jeff became a part of a new family where his older step-brother dominated and sexually abused him. What a rough childhood. And Jeff is not alone. Jeff is now living the dream and there are many reasons for it:

It was such an honor and pleasure interviewing Mikala McClain! She's a mother, a wife, a nurse, and an entrepreneur. She has such a fascinating story, and a TON of great learnings and teachings I KNOW you're gonna love. Mikala lost her mother early at age 11. This led to a desire for “self control” which translated into figure competitions and some body dysmorphia. Mikala learned that trying to control the external without working on the internal was almost futile; that set her on a path to learn therapies that could help her feel whole again. Things we discuss: • the loss of her mother and recent loss of her father and how that impacted her image of herself. • her disillusionment from being a nurse. learning to notice why you feel a certain way, where it comes from. • more is not better, esp with fitness. skimpy is not good, esp with nutrition. • your why behind your health habits is important. • polyvagal theory and the states of the nervous system. • and so much more!

Join us for our walk / ruck challenge! Kicking of this Monday August 1st. We are always looking for creative ways to get our activity in, especially if it is outside! The problem is that sometimes there are constraints - time constraints, gym constraints, equipment constraints, or a combination! Walking and rucking is the perfect solution! It's also the perfect addition to an existing fitness routine! I made a short video on the challenge, watch on YouTube here. You can also listen anywhere you listen to podcasts including Spotify here. Just look for WE ARE THE SHT ;) What is RUCKING? Rucking is basically walking with weight in a backpack. Whether you do it with weight or not: There's no equipment required. All you need is legs and feet. Shoes are optional ;) If you want to increase the difficulty, you can throw on a backpack and add weight. The benefits are tremendous: A morning walk can get your blood moving and help you start burning body fat for energy. You have time with your own mind. You can think about whatever you want. You can listen to music, a podcast, or a book. It's a great way to break up the stagnant positions of the day. It's perfect for after eating meals to manage blood sugar levels and get you back into a fat burning state faster. It's a great way to cap the day off. WALKING AND RUCKING IS THE MOST FUNCTIONAL MOVEMENT THERE IS. Get your body used to carrying weight, and you'll notice your ability to do many other things improves almost immediately.

It's all about the right light, at the right time, in the right amount! We're so excited for this talk! Rudy has made the rounds on MANY high level podcasts and has been a guest instructor at many health institutes. You know sunlight is good for you during the day... You also know exposure to the wrong light too late is bad for your health. What is it about sunlight that is good? What is it about artificial junk light that is bad? Most importantly, what can we do to optimize our health? Light is a powerful force that shapes your life and wellbeing. However, this force is a double-edged sword. The right light, in the right amount, at the right time will create healing and wonders. Artificial junk light is damaging your health, energy and mental wellbeing. In this LIVE discussion with Rudy Nassif you will learn about the science, as well as all the strategies, tips and tools that you need in order to navigate through the daily bombardment of artificial junk light and maximize the healing natural light. About Rudy Nassif: Roudy is an engineer, health entrepreneur, and founder of Vivarays, offering the most advanced circadian light therapy lenses for better sleep and energy. As a child, Roudy was diagnosed with ADHD. Growing up, he turned into a night owl, often feeling depressed, fatigued and disoriented. After trying many different diets, supplements, and healing modalities, nothing seemed to work. 7 years ago, his depression and anguish became unbearable, so he left his job as an engineer to embark on a worldwide journey of learning about himself and nature. Roudy's experiences transformed his health and life. His quest to understand this transformation and help others led him to study light, quantum biology, and the circadian rhythm. Thus, VivaRays was born.

You know how it is. You get excited about this thing. You decide to jump in. The problem is, there's no blueprint for what it is you want to do! Maybe you'd benefit from hearing Paul's personal story? Listen in for a summary of Paul's story and some of the important lessons he has learned like: My personal vision for myself is the most important thing I've created. It guides me every day: Be as healthy as I can. Share this gift of health with others. Practice meditation and mindfulness so I can cultivate awareness. YOUR TAKEAWAY - create a vision for yourself, and constantly revisit it. Fully commit to whatever it is that you want to do, while being flexible and open to possibilities. Take action! Say yes! Even if you're not ready, because saying yes will force you to get ready. There is no blueprint for YOU and exactly YOUR way of doing whatever it is you want to do! Be honest with yourself vs rationalizng. PERSONALLY I don't focus on end results for happiness. I have goals which dictate my behavior. I understand a goal is nothing more than leverage to get me to do what it is I need to do. My happiness comes from connecting with my personal vision, all day, every day.

If you want to look, feel, and perform your best, and you want to know how to eat for YOU, you gotta do experiments! One of the first and best experiments is to eliminate cow dairy to see how it makes you feel
As you transition into a real food way of eating, and as you embrace animal foods, you're going against the mainstream narrative that you've believed in for most of your life. And although you look, feel, and perform better than ever, you still have concerns! What we want for you is this
SO. You're proud of your health efforts. You're eating better, working out, sleeping better. Your health is improving. You're losing weight and feeling great. Then you go to your doctor to get some bloodwork done, and your doctor tells you to stop doing what you're doing. Check out this episode where we discuss the different types of doctors you might encounter and what to do about it. You can also listen anywhere you listen to podcasts. Look for WE ARE THE SHT ;) Big takeaways: take health advice from someone that appears to be healthy. if all your health markers are improving and moving in a good direction, don't get derailed about 1 number or 1 series of bloodwork. celebrate in the hard work you've done and your results and then use this information to fine tune. it is better to commit to a way o feating that is sustainable for life than something that is too restrictive. an MD with the right mindset can support you and your health efforts. we have an evolutionary past and digestive system that clearly says what we need to eat. in this sense it is a one diet fits all. most doctors have good intentions they just aren't trained in nutrition.

When you read labels, you want it to be worth your time and effort. The problem is MOST people don't know what to look for. MOST people are looking at MACRO information such as calories, grams of fat, and grams of carbs and sugar. Many people are looking to avoid fat and/or sugar. MOST people are NOT looking at ingredients. So what we want is some clarity and confidence in reading labels so that you KNOW you are looking at the right information. Calories and Macros Don't Matter (that much). Calories and macros such as protein, fat, and carbs, are NOT what you're looking for. Everything you consume is going to have a combination of these macros. It might be useful to see how much sugar is in a food product. This may help you decide HOW MUCH to consume. But before that, what you're looking for is whether the ingredients check out enough to consume the product in the first place - regardless of macros. ALWAYS look past the front of the package! The front of the packaging is marketing. Of course it's going to look good and simple. You must go past the front of the package and check out what's in the fine print. Choosing appropriate ingredients while avoiding toxic ingredients is what is most important. Look for a simple list of ingredients. A long list of ingredients should make a food product suspect. EVEN if the ingredients seem to check out! Avoid obvious things we probably want to avoid such as "artificial flavors," "artificial colors," and terms that you don't recognize. When in doubt, it's ok to leave it out! Avoid highly processed plant-based oils. These oils are processed using solvents, disinfectants, and deodorizers. These fatty acids are readily taken up by the body and confused for healthful fatty acids. Avoid anything hydrogenated, corn oil, canola oil, soybean oil, vegetable oil, grapeseed oil, safflower oil, rice bran oil, sunflower oil, and peanut oil Avoid most grains and grain-like seeds. Grains have low nutritional value, are high in carbohydrates, and contain anti-nutrients that inhibit the assimilation of nutrients and cause digestive issues. Avoid most grains and grain-like seeds including wheat, spelt, rye, barley, corn, soy, and oatmeal. Avoid artificial sweeteners and colors. There's plenty of epidemiological research showing connections between artificial sweeteners, colors, and poor health outcomes. The Great News? We have an alternative for that. Reading labels properly doesn't mean you have to give up everything that has ingredients that don't check out. It just means you have to find alternatives made with appropriate ingredients Check out our website where we now have a few options to engage with us: Visit superhumantransformation.com and download the free PDF on Debunking Conventional Wisdom and Status Quo with Truth-Based Solutions.

But whatever it was, those things made you feel amazing on this day! ⭐️ When you have those good days where you feel great, take a moment, pause, and connect with this great feeling. Acknowledge what you did the day before that made you feel this way. Celebrate! ⭐️ Use your good days for momentum to do it again. Now that you feel great and you've connected with what it was that contributed to this great feeling, use it as momentum to do it again! Imagine how great it's going to feel to wake up tomorrow feeling as good or better than you do now! ⭐️ Use how you want to feel tomorrow to make a better decision in the moment. Now comes the challenge! When you get to that moment where you have a decision and an opportunity to do what you know is going to make you feel good, think about how you want to feel tomorrow. Connect with that feeling. Imagine yourself crawling into bed knowing you got it right, and imagine how you know it's going to feel when you wake up in the morning!
