He begins by laying out five non-negotiable criteria that any sustainable eating pattern must meet—energy balance, metabolic health, adequate protein, micronutrient sufficiency, and long-term adherence—before introducing a practical rubric for evaluating different diets. Using this framework, Peter walks through the ketogenic, carnivore, vegan, and Mediterranean diets, highlighting their strengths, ideal candidates for each, and common pitfalls such as micronutrient gaps or adherence challenges. He explains why this guidance is aimed at people who feel overwhelmed by diet choices, not zealots defending a single approach, and provides practical advice on using tools like DEXA scans, lab markers, continuous glucose monitors, and symptom tracking to assess whether a diet is truly working.

1 Corinthians 16:13-14 Let me know what you think of this weeks topic?  The Tightrope Walk: Christian Masculinity in 2025 As a Christian man in 2025, navigating masculinity can feel like walking a tightrope between cultural pressures and biblical truth. Society's expectations and changing norms create unique stigmas, challenging how men express strength, manage emotions, and live out their faith. The real struggle lies in defining a "strong man"—is it the stoic image promoted by culture, or the Christ-like example of servant leadership?   Breaking the "Man Code" Modern culture often prescribes a restrictive "man code" that demands emotional suppression and self-sufficiency. Being a Christian man can clash with this code, leading to stigmatizing judgments from both inside and outside the church.   "Too soft": The biblical call to be gentle, compassionate, and loving can be mislabeled as "soft" or weak by a culture that equates masculinity with aggression and dominance. Christian men can face pressure to be "harder" in their interactions, conflicting with Christ's example of humility and grace. Stoicism vs. emotion: Stoicism, with its emphasis on emotional control, can be an attractive but unbiblical model for men pressured to hide their feelings. However, biblical examples show that genuine strength includes vulnerability and righteous emotion. Jesus, for instance, wept openly and expressed deep sorrow. True strength is found not in suppressing emotions, but in engaging with them in a godly way.   The embarrassment of being counter-cultural As society becomes increasingly secular, Christian men may feel embarrassed or hesitant to openly share their faith. Growing secularism: The pressure to conform to secular values can make Christian beliefs seem outdated or irrelevant. Topics like traditional marriage, gender roles, and biblical authority are often viewed as controversial, making open discussion challenging.   Standing firm vs. fitting in: This tension can lead to a quiet, private faith rather than a bold public witness. The Bible, however, warns against being ashamed of Christ's testimony. Courage is needed to be counter-cultural while remaining gracious and loving. The evolving landscape of roles   Changing cultural norms regarding gender roles also impact how Christian men are perceived in the family, church, and workplace. Balancing roles: Christian men must balance traditional biblical commands with modern societal shifts. For example, a man might need to support his wife's career while still serving as the spiritual leader in the home—a collaborative effort grounded in love and biblical principles.   Leadership and servanthood: The biblical model of leadership is not dominance, but Christ-like servanthood. A Christian man is called to protect, provide, and guide his family with humility, mirroring Christ's sacrificial love for the church.   What is a strong Christian man? Ultimately, a strong Christian man isn't defined by cultural "man codes" but by his commitment to biblical principles. Rooted in Christ: True strength comes from relying on God's power, not one's own. Biblical manhood is Christ-likeness, not a human-made ideal. 1 Corinthians 16:13-14: The Apostle Paul's words offer a powerful summary of biblical masculinity: "Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. Let all that you do be done in love". This call is not to cultural machismo, but to a courageous faith lived out with integrity and love.   Servanthood and humility: A strong Christian man rejects worldly measures of success and instead prioritizes serving others with humility, just as Jesus did. In 2025, Christian men are called to reject cultural distortions of manhood and embrace the biblical vision: a masculinity defined by Christ, marked by humility, and expressed through courageous, loving action.     would Jesus be considered soft today?   That's a complex question because "soft" is a culturally loaded term that has changed over time. While Jesus's gentle and compassionate nature might be labeled "soft" by some today, the full picture of his ministry shows a powerful, assertive, and challenging figure who would not neatly fit modern categories of masculinity.   Here's a breakdown of how different aspects of Jesus's character would be perceived in today's world: Aspects that might be perceived as "soft"   Compassion for the outcast: Jesus consistently associated with those on the margins of society—tax collectors, prostitutes, the sick, and the poor. In a world that often prizes social status and separates people, this counter-cultural acceptance could be perceived as weak by those who favor exclusivity.   Emotional vulnerability: The Gospels describe Jesus weeping, such as at the death of Lazarus (John 11:35). In some modern contexts, where men are pressured to suppress emotion, this vulnerability might be misunderstood as "soft" or unmanly.   Teachings on humility and non-retaliation: Jesus's sermon on the mount, which teaches turning the other cheek and being meek, directly opposes worldly aggression and pride.   This would clash with modern "man codes" that emphasize a dominant, "alpha male" persona. Servant leadership: By washing his disciples' feet (John 13:1-17), Jesus demonstrated that true leadership is rooted in service and humility. A society that rewards and idolizes power might find this model of leadership to be "soft" or naive.         Confronting hypocrisy: Jesus was not afraid to call out the religious and political leaders of his day for their hypocrisy, pride, and greed. His public rebukes of the Pharisees would still be seen as a bold and unsparing challenge to authority today.   Cleansing the Temple: This is one of the most famously assertive moments in Jesus's ministry. He physically drove out merchants and money changers who were exploiting the faithful. His anger, often called "righteous indignation," was a fierce defense of God's house and an act of holy confrontation.   Authority over spiritual forces: The Gospels describe Jesus casting out demons and commanding unclean spirits with a power that left people amazed. In any era, this kind of supernatural authority would be seen as a display of immense strength, not weakness.   Clear and uncompromising message: Jesus was unwavering in his message about repentance, salvation, and the Kingdom of God. He wasn't a people-pleaser, and his "hard sayings" often caused followers to turn away. His uncompromising nature would be seen as rigid and polarizing in a modern culture that prioritizes relativism and tolerance above all else.   Ultimately, the idea of Jesus being "soft" is a fallacy rooted in a limited or sanitized view of his life. His character was a dynamic blend of radical compassion and unwavering strength. He was gentle and humble, but also fierce and challenging. He was a paradoxical figure who defies simple labels, especially a superficial one like "soft".   what is alpha male The term "alpha male" describes a man who is traditionally viewed as dominant, confident, and a natural leader. However, the concept is highly controversial and is not based on sound scientific or psychological principles. Characteristics associated with the "alpha male" Historically, the alpha male archetype draws on simplistic ideas of animal pack hierarchies and includes traits such as: Dominance: Taking charge in social situations and having a commanding presence. Confidence: Possessing high self-assurance and not being easily swayed by others. Assertiveness: Clearly expressing one's opinions and standing firm in arguments. Competitiveness: Being driven to win and succeed in both personal and professional contexts. Traditional masculinity: Prioritizing traits like physical strength, emotional control, and career ambition. The problematic origins and critiques of the term The entire concept of the "alpha male" is largely debunked and criticized for its flawed origins and harmful impact. Flawed animal research: The term originated from an outdated and mistaken mid-20th-century study of captive wolves. The researcher who coined the term, L. David Mech, later recanted his findings, explaining that the aggressive dominance hierarchy observed was a result of housing unrelated wolves together in an artificial environment, not natural behavior. Wild wolf packs are led by a breeding pair, which are simply the parents of the other wolves in a family unit. Oversimplifies human behavior: Applying this concept to humans forces complex human personalities into rigid, oversimplified boxes like "alpha" and "beta." In reality, people's traits and social positions vary based on context and individual personalities, not a fixed hierarchy. Promotes toxic masculinity: The stereotype encourages men to suppress emotions, avoid vulnerability, and prioritize dominance over empathy. This can lead to anxiety, stress, and relationship issues, while discouraging qualities like emotional intelligence, kindness, and collaboration. Reinforces harmful stereotypes: The idea can be used to excuse negative behavior, such as controlling, aggressive, or dismissive attitudes. It creates a false hierarchy that makes men who don't fit the mold feel inadequate, even though qualities like empathy and kindness are highly valued in both personal and professional settings. The modern perspective Many contemporary discussions of masculinity aim to move beyond the simplistic "alpha male" archetype. Modern leadership and personal development trends emphasize a more balanced approach that combines traditional strengths with a high degree of emotional intelligence, empathy, and humility. A truly effective and respectable leader is often characterized by their integrity, respect for others, and genuine self-worth, rather than their ability to dominate.   what is toxic mascalinity "Toxic masculinity" refers to a set of traditional attitudes and behaviors associated with manhood that are harmful to men themselves, to women, and to society in general. The term does not suggest that all masculinity is inherently bad, but rather that certain narrow, regressive, and extreme aspects of it can be dangerous. Core traits and behaviors Common traits and behaviors associated with toxic masculinity include: Emotional suppression: The belief that men should be stoic and not show emotions like sadness, fear, or vulnerability. The only emotion typically deemed acceptable is anger. Aggression and dominance: Valuing physical aggression, dominance, and a controlling nature as essential indicators of power. Anti-femininity: Rejecting anything perceived as feminine, including certain hobbies, behaviors, or even acknowledging the value of women. This often leads to misogyny and the devaluation of women. Hyper-independence: A refusal to accept help or seek support, viewing reliance on others as a sign of weakness. Sexual aggression and entitlement: Viewing women as sexual conquests and promoting objectification, which can contribute to harassment, sexual assault, and rape culture. Risk-taking behavior: Taking unnecessary risks, often to prove one's toughness or masculinity, which can lead to substance abuse, reckless driving, or dangerous physical activities. The harm of toxic masculinity Toxic masculinity has significant negative effects on everyone it touches, both directly and indirectly. Harm to men Mental and physical health: The suppression of emotions and reluctance to seek help for issues like depression, anxiety, or illness can lead to serious health problems and even contribute to higher rates of suicide among men. Unhealthy relationships: A focus on dominance and emotional insensitivity can prevent men from forming deep, meaningful relationships with partners, friends, and family. Limited personal growth: Adherence to rigid gender roles can hold men back from exploring interests, hobbies, or career paths that are not traditionally masculine. Harm to others Violence: The connection between toxic masculinity and aggression is well-documented, contributing to interpersonal violence, domestic abuse, and broader societal issues of violence. Gender inequality: By valuing dominance and devaluing femininity, toxic masculinity reinforces a patriarchal system that disadvantages women and perpetuates harmful stereotypes. Reinforcing prejudice: It promotes homophobia and discrimination against anyone who doesn't conform to rigid gender norms, creating a hostile environment for LGBTQ+ people. Distinguishing toxic masculinity from healthy masculinity It's crucial to understand that toxic masculinity is not the same as masculinity itself. Positive, healthy masculine traits are often the opposite of toxic ones and can include: Leadership Courage Compassion Integrity A strong work ethic Taking responsibility The concept of toxic masculinity encourages people to acknowledge and address the harmful behaviors that stem from a restrictive and unhealthy view of what it means to be a man, while still celebrating positive masculine attributes.     Redefining Strength: Biblical Manhood in a Shifting Cultural Landscape Navigating the tightrope of Christian masculinity in 2025 As a Christian man, it often feels like you're walking a tightrope. On one side are the expectations of modern culture—the shifting social norms, the pressure to conform, and the constant redefinition of what it means to be a man. On the other side is biblical truth—a timeless vision of manhood that is often misunderstood or outright rejected today. The real struggle is in defining what a "strong man" truly is. Is he the stoic, emotionally repressed image promoted by cultural "man codes"? Or is he a humble, compassionate, and courageous servant leader, modeled after Christ? Breaking the unwritten "man code" Today's culture often pushes a rigid "man code" that demands emotional suppression and self-sufficiency. For a Christian man, this creates an uncomfortable and often painful clash. "Too soft": The biblical call to be gentle, compassionate, and loving is often mislabeled as weak. In a culture that equates masculinity with aggression and dominance, living out Christ's humility and grace can leave a man feeling judged as "soft." Stoicism vs. Godly emotion: The stoic ideal of emotional control is an unbiblical one. The Bible shows that genuine strength includes vulnerability and righteous emotion. Jesus, for instance, wept openly and expressed deep sorrow. True strength isn't found in suppressing emotions, but in engaging with them in a way that honors God. The pressure to be counter-cultural As society becomes more secular, Christian men can feel a growing sense of embarrassment or hesitation when it comes to openly living out their faith. Fitting in vs. standing firm: The pressure to conform to secular values can make Christian beliefs feel outdated. Issues like traditional marriage or biblical authority are often viewed as controversial, and this can push men to a quiet, private faith rather than a bold public witness. Courage in love: However, the Bible warns against being ashamed of Christ's testimony. It takes courage to be counter-cultural while remaining gracious and loving, but that is precisely the calling. Would Jesus be considered "soft" today? To understand biblical manhood, we must look to the ultimate example: Jesus. Would the world today call him "soft"? The answer is complex, because Jesus defies simplistic labels. Aspects that might be perceived as "soft": Compassion for the outcast: Jesus consistently associated with those on the margins of society—tax collectors, the sick, the poor—a counter-cultural acceptance that some might perceive as weak. Emotional vulnerability: He wept at the death of Lazarus (John 11:35), displaying a vulnerability that clashes with the modern standard of emotional suppression. Servant leadership: By washing his disciples' feet (John 13:1-17), Jesus demonstrated that true leadership is rooted in service and humility, a model a power-hungry society might call naive. Aspects that would be perceived as powerful: Confronting hypocrisy: Jesus boldly and unapologetically called out the hypocrisy of religious leaders. Cleansing the Temple: This assertive moment shows his righteous indignation and fierce defense of God's honor. Authority over spiritual forces: He cast out demons and commanded spiritual forces, demonstrating immense strength. An uncompromising message: Jesus was unwavering in his message about repentance and the Kingdom of God, an uncompromising stance that would be seen as rigid and polarizing today. Ultimately, Jesus was a paradoxical figure who combined radical compassion with unwavering strength. He was gentle and humble, yet fierce and challenging. He defies the superficial label of "soft." A vision beyond the "alpha male" The concept of the "alpha male" is a highly flawed and damaging model. Rooted in flawed animal research and oversimplified human behavior, it promotes aggression, dominance, and emotional suppression. This is not the standard for Christian men. Instead, a strong Christian man isn't defined by worldly codes but by his commitment to biblical principles: Rooted in Christ: True strength comes from relying on God's power, not one's own. Biblical manhood is not a human ideal; it is Christ-likeness. A balanced perspective: A Christian man leads with Christ-like servanthood, protecting and guiding his family with humility. He rejects the toxic parts of masculinity while embracing positive traits like courage, integrity, and responsibility. Courage and love: The Apostle Paul's words offer a powerful guide: “Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. Let all that you do be done in love" (1 Corinthians 16:13-14). This is a call to a courageous faith lived out with love. A call to courageous servanthood In 2025, Christian men are called to reject the cultural distortions of manhood and embrace the biblical vision: a masculinity defined by Christ, marked by humility, and expressed through courageous, loving action. This is not the easiest path, but it is the one that leads to true strength and a life that honors God.

“All of these TKIs [tyrosine kinase inhibitors] inhibit BCR-ABL1 in some way, shape, or form. When BCR-ABL1 is mutated, it has uncontrolled tyrosine kinase activity, leading to rapid cell proliferation. When we then inhibit that BCR-ABL1 that's been mutated, we disrupt this abnormal signaling pathway that drives CML [chronic myeloid leukemia] cell proliferation and survival, ultimately leading to decreased cancer cell growth, increased apoptosis or cell death, and potentially inducing a disease remission,” Samantha Maples, PharmD, BCOP, clinical pharmacy specialist supervisor for hematology and cellular therapy at Allegheny Health Network in Pittsburgh, PA, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about the BCR-ABL1 inhibitor drug class.   Music Credit: “Fireflies and Stardust” by Kevin MacLeod  Licensed under Creative Commons by Attribution 3.0   Earn 0.5 contact hours of nursing continuing professional development (NCPD) by listening to the full recording and completing an evaluation at courses.ons.org by September 5, 2026.

Highlights From This Episode  “The IRIS study led to the approval of the BCR-ABL1 and TKI, imatinib, for CML in 2001 and completely changed the landscape of CML treatment. Then came the second-generation BCR-ABL1 TKIs: dasatinib in 2006, quickly followed by nilotinib in 2007. Thereafter came our second-generation, bosutinib, and our first approved third-generation TKI, ponatinib, both in 2012, which was a huge milestone as ponatinib overcomes resistance to the T315 I mutation, which no previously approved TKIs worked against.” TS 2:16 “The newest approved TKI, asciminib, is an allosteric inhibitor that binds to a different pocket on the BCR-ABL kinase via allosteric binding to the ABL myristoyl pocket. It's what's called a STAMP inhibitor, where STAMP stands for ‘specifically targeting the ABL myristoyl pocket.' And while all the TKIs target the BCR-ABL1 binding site, they can also inhibit different off-target kinases. And these differences in off-target inhibition are responsible for some of the different toxicities we see among the TKIs.” TS 4:51 “As a class, common toxicities include nausea; vomiting; diarrhea; cardiac toxicities, including cardiac arrhythmias and congestive heart failure; metabolic abnormalities such as hypercholesterolemia and hypertriglyceridemia; nephrotoxicity; hepatic toxicity; hemorrhaging and bleeding; as well as cytopenia. Individually, some of these agents are more likely to cause certain side effects compared to others, and there are unique toxicities associated with certain TKIs.” TS 8:10 “We've moved to using preemptive loperamide [in our clinic] for the first three days of starting treatment, because it's really hard to get patients to continue to take a medication if they have such severe diarrhea that they end up in the hospital or they're unable to leave their house. A lot of times, we will proactively give patients antiemetics and loperamide to help with the nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. And then we can back off to an as-needed basis once they've been established on treatment. We can also use medications to help manage long-term complications that can require supportive care, such as statin therapy for high cholesterol, levothyroxine for hypothyroidism, anticoagulants for any venous thromboembolism, and antihypertensive medications for managing any new or worsening high blood pressure.” TS 12:44 “We are continually seeing these agents expand their indications to different lines of therapy, as well as more TKIs being approved for acute lymphoblastic leukemia. For example, asciminib just got approved in the frontline setting within the last year, whereas previously it was only approved in relapsed refractory setting. Last year, imatinib was the first BCR-ABL1 TKI to come out with a commercially supplied suspension option as well, which is huge in the pediatric space and [for] our adult patients who are unable to swallow tablets for other clinical reasons.” TS 21:22 “There is more information being published on the safe discontinuation of these medications with treatment-free remissions, and more information is coming out about who would be eligible and who can have the option to stop these treatments instead of having a lifelong chronic condition requiring continuous treatment. We're seeing more patients in clinical practice be able to stop BCR-ABL1 treatment, which has been a great development in CML.” TS 25:29

This episode analyzes a groundbreaking 12-week study comparing volumetric diet approaches with 16:8 time-restricted eating, revealing why intermittent fasting leads to better long-term adherence and sustainability. Dr. Scott and Tommy break down research showing that while both groups achieved similar weight loss and body composition improvements, the fasting group maintained 83% adherence (5.8 days per week) compared to 76% for the volumetric diet group - a crucial 7% difference that compounds significantly over time. Learn about the hedonic food scale and how high-hedonic foods (chocolate, chips, nut butters) versus low-hedonic foods (vegetables, soups, melons) impact your fasting success and food choices. Discover how to combine the best of both approaches by using volumetric eating principles as fast-breakers - incorporating water-based soups, raw vegetables with salsa, and high-water fruits to naturally reduce caloric density while maintaining satisfaction. The hosts explain why fasting simplifies decision-making, reduces food noise, and eliminates decision fatigue compared to calorie counting and macro tracking. Get practical strategies for closing eating windows successfully, preventing late-night pantry raids, and using volumetric foods as stepping stones toward cleaner fasting habits. This episode provides evidence that fasting's simplicity leads to better long-term results, while offering tactical ways to leverage volume eating during nutrition windows for enhanced satiety and easier window closure, ultimately supporting sustainable weight loss without the complexity of traditional diet approaches. ⁠Take the NEW FASTING PERSONA QUIZ! - The Key to Unlocking Sustainable Weight Loss With Fasting!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Resources and Downloads: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SIGN UP FOR THE DROP OF THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO BLOOD SUGAR CONTROL⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠GRAB THE OPTIMAL RANGES FOR LAB WORK HERE! - NEW RESOURCE! ⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FREE RESOURCE - DOWNLOAD THE NEW BLUEPRINT TO FASTING FOR FAT LOSS!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SLEEP GUIDE DIRECT DOWNLOAD⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠DOWNLOAD THE FASTING TRANSFORMATION JOURNAL HERE!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Partner Links: Get your⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ FREE BOX OF LMNT⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ hydration support for the perfect electrolyte balance for your fasting lifestyle with your first purchase⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ here!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Get ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠25% off a Keto-Mojo⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ blood glucose and ketone monitor (discount shown at checkout)! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Click here!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Our Community: Let's continue the conversation.

What if eating sugar could actually help you burn fat, sleep better, and transform your body after 40?   In this explosive episode of The Super Human Life, Coach Frank sits down with fitness legend Shaun Hadsall, better known as The Ripped Grandpa, to break down the truth behind The Sugar Diet, a controversial but powerful nutritional strategy that's blowing up in the fitness world.   Shaun shares the science behind how sugar (yes, sugar) can be strategically used to ignite fat loss, boost metabolism, and support muscle retention, especially for men in their 30s, 40s, and beyond. The conversation dives deep into the real cause of obesity, the hormone FGF21, and how sugar, when isolated from fat and protein, can actually heal your metabolism instead of destroy it.   If you've tried keto, low-carb, or intermittent fasting and still feel stuck... this episode will completely rewire how you think about food, discipline, and fat loss.   Frank also shares his personal results using The Sugar Diet, including improvements in energy, fat loss, and sleep, without restriction or burnout.

Adherence to the commandments is not enough. Jesus can see through to the heart of the matter and see the idles standing between you and God. It may be easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than a rich man to enter heaven. However, with God all things are possible. Sermon Notes Mark 10:17 A Rich man asks Jesus how to inherit eternal life Mark 10:18 Jesus asks, “Why call Me good?” Mark 10:19 Jesus speaks of the Commandments Mark 10:20 The man says he has kept them from his youth Mark 10:21 & 22 Jesus loving him states what the man lacks, he loves his wealth more than eternity Mark 10:23 - 25 Says that it is hard for the wealthy to enter the kingdom of God Mark 10:26 The Disciples then ask who can be saved? Mark 10:27 With man it is impossible, but not for God Mark 10:28 Peter asks what about us Mark 10:29 – 31 Jesus says you will be rewarded more than you gave up Romans 10:8 –13 Believing and confessing Ephesians 2:8 –10 Saved by grace through faith

In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode, I explore how the nervous system impacts fat loss and how certain behaviors and supplements can accelerate fat burning. I explain how non-exercise movements like fidgeting and shivering trigger adrenaline to boost fat metabolism. I also examine the impact of exercise intensity and fasted workouts on fat burning, and how supplements such as caffeine, GLP-1 and berberine can further support fat loss. These science-based tools go beyond traditional calorie counting to enhance metabolism and improve body composition. Huberman Lab Essentials are short episodes (approximately 30 minutes) focused on essential science and protocol takeaways from past Huberman Lab episodes. Essentials will be released every Thursday, and our full-length episodes will still be released every Monday. Read the episode show notes at hubermanlab.com.
