Join our Patreon and get access to monthly bonus episodes and more nutriton content!Can fasting really slow aging? Does calorie restriction work for humans, or just for mice and yeast? And how much protein do you actually need to age well? This week on Your Diet Sucks, we break down the evidence behind the most talked-about interventions in the longevity space, what holds up under scrutiny, what doesn't, and why you might not need a supplement stack to live longer, and enjoy life. We dig into:The actual science on calorie restriction, fasting, and supplements—and where the evidence stopsWhat inflammation, oxidative stress, and telomeres have to do with how we ageThe best-researched dietary patterns for living longer (hint: it's not sexy, but it might include red wine)Why protein becomes more important as we ageThe difference between lifespan and healthspan, and why quality of life needs to be part of the conversation

Dr. Joel Fuhrman provides clarity on the roles of fat and protein in our diet. Understand how to balance these macronutrients for optimal health and prevent common dietary misconceptions. #FatAndProtein #NutritionalBalance #HealthyDiet

It's the end of Season 3 and this week's nugget is all about why healthy carbohydrates (the mainstay of wholefood plant-based diets) are no bad thing when it comes to diabetes. We think many health professionals still need to hear that trying to focus solely on protein, to the exclusion of all the wonderful things in carbohydrate rich foods such as fruits, beans, and seeds, is hard work, seemingly unsustainable and therefore unlikely to deliver long term results.

Dr. Neal Barnard addressed concerns surrounding the consumption of soy by individuals with hypothyroidism. Contrary to popular belief, evidence suggesting soy's harm to those with hypothyroidism is weak. The broader discussion pivoted towards the benefits of adopting a wholly plant-based diet. The Adventist Health Study found that plant-based dieters exhibited the lowest prevalence of hypothyroidism. Dr. Barnard advocates for a low-fat vegan diet and emphasizes the need for continued medical supervision for those on thyroid supplementation. He also touched upon the benefits of a vegan diet in regulating hormones, the possible advantages of raw food, and the importance of individualized care in specific health issues. #PlantBasedDiet #Hypothyroidism #SoyMyth

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Adventist Health Study-2 supports pescetarianism more than veganism, published by Elizabeth on June 17, 2023 on LessWrong. Or: how the Adventist Health Study-2 had a pretty good study design but was oversold in popular description, and then misrepresented its own results. When I laid out my existing beliefs on veganism and nutrition I asked people for evidence to the contrary. By far the most promising thing people shared was the 7th Day Adventist Health Studies. I got very excited because the project promised something of a miracle in nutrition science: an approximate RCT. I read the paper that included vegan results, and while it's still very good as far as nutrition studies go it's well below what I was promised, and the summaries I read were misleading. It's not a pseudo-RCT, and even if you take the data at face value (which you shouldn't) it doesn't show a vegan diet is superior to all others (as measured by lifespan). Vegan is at best tied with pescetarianism, and in certain niche cases (e.g. being a woman) it's the worst choice besides unconstrained meat consumption. I'm going to try not to be too sarcastic about this, the study really is very good data by nutrition science standards, but I have a sour spot for medical papers that say “people” when they mean “men”, so probably something will leak out. Also, please consider what the state of nutrition science must be to make me call something that made this mistake “very good”. Background The 7th Day Adventists are a fairly large Christian sect. For decades scientists have been recruiting huge cohorts to study their diet, and publishing a lot of papers. The Adventists are a promising group to use to study nutrition for lots of reasons, but primarily because the Church discourages meat, smoking, and drinking. So you lose the worst confounders for health, and get a population of lifelong, culturally competent vegetarians, which is a pretty good deal. Total abstinence from meat isn't technically required – you're allowed to eat kosher meat – but it's heavily discouraged. 7DA colleges only serve vegetarian meals, and church meals will typically be vegetarian. Some popular descriptions say that rules vary between individual churches, which could give you an almost RCT effect. AFAICT this isn't true, and the paper I read never claimed it was. Both the internet and my ex-Adventist friend say that individual churches within the US (where the study took place) vary a little in recommendations, but most of the variety in diet is based on individual choice, not local church rules. I was really hoping this project could shed light on what happened to people who had medical difficulties with plant-exclusive diets in plant-exclusive food cultures, but they didn't try, and from the abundance of meat eaters within 7DA I'd guess the answer is that they eat animal products. Nor is the study very informative about naively switching to a plant-exclusive diet, since most members grow up in the culture and will have been taught a reasonable plan-based diet without necessarily needing to consciously think about it. The Adventist Health Studies program has produced a lot of papers over the years. I focused on Vegetarian Dietary Patterns and Mortality in Adventist Health Study 2, because someone commented on my last post and pointed to that paper as addressing veganism in particular (other papers look like they only consider vegetarianism, although they might be using it as an umbrella term). I also read the AHS-2 cohort profile, but not any of the other papers, due to time constraints. It's possible I will raise questions those papers would have answered, but there are at least 15 papers and, as I'll talk about later, I wasn't feeling hopeful. So let's talk about that one paper.

There’s a group of Bible-believing, Bible-preaching, and Bible-following Christians in this world who’ve been creating an interesting statistic for decades. Seems they live longer than most everybody else. The question is, WHY? Dr. Michael Orlich of Loma Linda University’s School of Public Health offers insights.

My guest today is Dr. Roger Seheult, who is quadruple board-certified in Internal Medicine, Pulmonary Diseases, Critical Care Medicine and Sleep Medicine through the American Board of Internal Medicine. He is the co-founder of MedCram, a medical education company where his mission is to demystify medical concepts for people around the world. You guys really enjoyed the first time we had Roger on, so we brought him on again to really dive into the root cause of disease and how to prevent it!A lot of this information is fascinating and necessary, so I've split this interview into two separate parts. The second half will be out later this week.In this episode we discuss, why inflammation is the root cause of disease, how different diets affect our overall health, what happens in your body when you're infected with COVID-19, and so much more!For more go to: www.lewishowes.com/1156Check out his website: https://www.medcram.com Listen to our first interviews with Dr. Roger Seheult: www.lewishowes.com/1063 & www.lewishowes.com/1064 Adventist Health Study: https://adventisthealthstudy.org/studies/AHS-2 Plant based diets, pescatarian diets and COVID-19 Severity Study: https://nutrition.bmj.com/content/early/2021/05/18/bmjnph-2021-000272 The Wim Hof Experience: Mindset Training, Power Breathing, and Brotherhood: https://link.chtbl.com/910-podA Scientific Guide to Living Longer, Feeling Happier & Eating Healthier with Dr. Rhonda Patrick: https://link.chtbl.com/967-podThe Science of Sleep for Ultimate Success with Shawn Stevenson: https://link.chtbl.com/896-podSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Hello everyone! Welcome back to the Peak HUman podcast, I'm Brian Sanders and I hope everyone is doing well and eating a Sapien diet and living that Sapien lifestyle. I guess I'll clarify what that is. Many people are already doing it without realizing it - I'm just trying to give it a name. It's really just what seems to be the natural human diet. It's a framework and isn't the same for everyone and changes based on many factors such as where you live to where you are in your life or health journey. It's based on whole foods, ancestral principles and food preparation techniques. It focuses on the best, most bioavailable, nutrient dense nutrition which is from animal foods. It incorporates the least toxic plant foods. It's not carnivore, keto, paleo, or Whole 30 but has elements of these. I hate to have labels but none of the other dietary labels fit what I believe is a pretty basic framework for human nutrition. The lifestyle component is big as well and includes all the natural ways humans have always stayed healhty like getting outdoors and adequate sun, sleep, a form of movement, and so on.  This is such a cool episode because Dr. Van Vliet's research is a brilliant intersection of 2 topics that should be near and dear to the hearts of everyone listening - how animals are raised affects the nutrient profile of the meat and how this in turn affects human health. He uses cutting edge science to go beyond the 3 macros, or 13 vitamins & minerals listed on nutrition labels, to up to 70,000 secondary compounds found in food. He also is working on a much-anticipated study (maybe only to me and those listening) which is randomized controlled and looks at red meat in the context of a healthy diet! How cool is that! This is what we've all wanted for so long. Compare eating red meat in the context of a whole foods diet compared to eating it with a bunch of processed foods that would be thought of as a Standard American Diet. Get ready to meet your new best friend in the nutrition research field. I'm so glad Dr. Van Vliet is doing this research and that he spent a solid 90 minutes with me exploring much of it. Get ready for a good one! Dr. Stephan van Vliet is a human nutrition scientist at the Duke School of Medicine. Dr. van Vliet earned his PhD in Kinesiology and Community Health as an ESPEN Fellow from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and received post-doctoral training at the Center for Human Nutrition in the Washington University in St Louis School of Medicine. Dr. van Vliet also holds a Masters in Nutrition Science.   GET THE MEAT! http://NosetoTail.org GET THE FREE SAPIEN FOOD GUIDE! http://Sapien.org   SHOW NOTES: [5:15] His background and education.  [8:50] Research into Metabolomics.

Episode 26: In this episode, host Angie Gust, discusses Dr. Michael Greger's 2015 book, "How not to Die". He says “Our diet is the No. 1 cause of premature death and disability.” Dr. Greger centers his recommendations around a daily dozen checklist of all the things he tries to fit into his daily diet and routine.  As for the environment, at President Biden's Earth Day Summit in April, he told the gathering of leaders that, "Nations that work together to invest in a cleaner economy will reap the rewards for their citizens". The summit was the first in a list of meetings of world leaders - including the G7 and G20 - leading up to the annual UN climate talks- COP 26- in November in Glasgow Scotland. References Blue Zones.

If you are looking for an episode that consolidates several things previously spoken about on the show, along with findings from new research then I think you will really enjoy this episode. Particularly if you like the more in-depth science episodes.In this episode we talk about:The latest EPIC-Oxford study on bone healthThe health advantages that people have who adopt plant-predominant or exclusive dietary patternsNaturopathy as a form of health careHow Dr Nagra helps his patients make sustainable changesCommon questions Dr Nagra gets from patients (Including questions about protein, soy, lectins, cooking oils etc)His personal food philosophyLDL-Cholesterol being an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease and his thoughts on the carnivore dietImportant nutrients and supplements for people reducing their consumption of animal foodsA new study on iodine status in Norwegian pescatarians, vegetarians and vegans.and much moreRESOURCES:Website to full studies in full for free:Sci-hub.stBone Health:1 - New EPIC-Oxford study: https://bmcmedicine.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12916-020-01815-32 - How we know this study failed to properly adjust for BMI and calcium intake.

Dr. Hana Kahleova is the director of clinical research at the Physicians Committee and directs research testing the effect a plant-based diet has on metabolism, insulin function, fitness, and mental health, as well as studying the impact meal timing and meal frequency have on metabolism and body weight.  Dr. Kahleova earned her doctorate in nutrition and diabetes and her medical degree from Charles University in Prague, Czech Republic. As a postdoctoral research fellow at Loma Linda University in California, Dr. Kahleova analyzed data from 50,000 Adventist Health Study-2 participants. She analyzed data on meal frequency and timing in relationship to changes in body weight.  Show notes at: sigmanutrition.com/episode356

Do milk and dairy belong in the same category as tobacco and processed meat?   On this episode of The Exam Room™ podcast, health benefits of dairy are debated as renowned epidemiologist Dr. Gary Fraser joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll. Does cheese or a glass of milk increase the risk for cancer and chronic disease or are they the cornerstones of a healthy diet? Some of the research being discussed may be counter to what many who subscribe to a plant-based diet believe.   Dr. Fraser served as the director of the Adventist health studies at Loma Linda for 32 years and was heavily involved in the Adventist Health Study-1 as well as the development of the Adventist Health Study-2.   Chuck also explores other research that shows dairy can be more nefarious when it comes to your health as he revisits a conversation with oncology nutritionist Alison Tierney. She strongly recommends eliminating dairy as eating a whole food plant-based diet has been shown to be one of the best preventative measures for cancer and other chronic diseases. Alison, whose mother is a breast cancer survivor, discusses the link between dairy fat and estrogen as well as the production of other potentially cancer-causing hormones such as 5alpha-P and IGF-1.   Dr. Fraser will be a featured speaker at the upcoming International Conference on Nutrition in Medicine.   — — — ICNM Register: https://www.pcrm.org/icnm — — — Associations of Dairy Study https://bit.ly/3f36LMR — — — Alison Tierney https://www.wholesomellc.com PCOS Journey: https://bit.ly/3gv7WoD — — — Chuck Carroll Twitter: @ChuckCarrollWLC IG: @ChuckCarrollWLC — — — Physicians Committee Twitter: @PCRM IG: @PhysiciansCommittee Facebook: https://wghtloss.cc/PCRMFacebook YouTube: https://bit.ly/PCRMYouTube — — — Barnard Medical Center Telemedicine Schedule Appointment: https://bit.ly/BMCtelemed   Share the Show   Please subscribe and give the show a 5-star rating on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or many other podcast providers.

In this episode, we welcome Cyrus Khambatta, PhD, and Robby Barbaro, MPH, to the podcast. Both have been living with type 1 diabetes for several years. Cyrus was diagnosed in 2002 while Robby was diagnosed in 2000. Ultimately, they both discovered the incredible power of a low-fat, whole food plant-based diet to maximize their insulin sensitivity and together they created the Mastering Diabetes coaching program to share this information with the world. In this episode we cover: How Robby and Cyrus were each diagnosed with type 1 diabetes and ultimately discovered a plant-based diet The different types of diabetes What actually causes insulin resistance Why avoiding carbohydrates is not the solution to high blood sugar The criteria for diagnosing and reversing type 2 diabetes The long term consequences of keto and low carb diets How to maximize insulin sensitivity Role of meat Eating fruit as a diabetic If you would like to connect with Robby and Cyrus, you can find them on Instagram: Robby @mindfuldiabeticrobby and Cryus @mangomannutrition.

Dr. Michael Orlich, assistant professor of the Loma Linda School of Medicine, share surprising insights gained during the ongoing Adventist Health Study 2. (adventisthealthstudy.org)

When you think of medicine, the picture that often comes up involves prescription medication, surgery, and other conventional procedures. But these kinds of treatments only come into play when your body is already broken, so to speak. So conventional treatments act to fix whatever is broken. But this only puts you in a position of having to take medication for the rest of your life.  You might find that picture grim, but that is the reality for a lot of people. However, recent studies have shown that there is a way to strengthen your body to enable it to do what it wants, which is to heal.  This is where lifestyle medicine has stepped in and been at the forefront of this exciting opportunity.  Your health should not be determined by your genetic predisposition. You can still do something. Only you can empower your own body to do something not even medication can do.  In this show you’ll learn about: What is Lifestyle Medicine and why does it matter? Valuable lessons Dr Shurney has learned and vast data that he has collated through clinical, workplace and national campaigns In today’s show, you will learn the power of simple daily actions and how they can have a huge impact and health benefit. Listen To The Podcast Now.    About Our Guest Dr Dexter Shurney, MD, MBA, MPH, FACLM is President of the American College of Lifestyle Medicine and Editor of the Journal of Managed Care Physicians. He is also Chief Medical Officer and Senior Vice President of Clinical Affairs for Zipongo, a San Francisco-based digital health and wellness company. Dr. Shurney serves on numerous boards including: the Global Business Group on Health and the National Association of Managed Care Physicians. Dr Shurney is co-author of the book, “Integrating Wellness into Your Disease Management Programs.”   Why Lifestyle Medicine The Trajectory That Led Him To Lifestyle Medicine Dr Shurney talks about shifting in specialty from general surgery to preventive medicine.  He remembers hearing about lifestyle medicine while devising plans and protocols for chronic disease management. He shares how he got interested and applied lifestyle medicine to himself to treat diabetes and hypertension. He recounts facing rejection from family members who are also medical professionals when he told them about his experience. What Is Lifestyle Medicine Lifestyle medicine is a holistic approach to allowing your body to do what it wants to do, which is to become whole and well. Your body wants nutritious food and exercise. Doing the basics and fundamentals to strengthen your body to heal itself can cure 60-70% of chronic diseases.  If you dial it up, you can even reverse chronic disease. Lifestyle Is Often Neglected Most people don’t know what it means to live a healthy life. People with a high genetic risk factor for developing dementia can reduce their lifetime risk by 30% through healthy lifestyle decisions. There is no medication in the market that can have the same impact. Two observation studies, one involving identical twins and another involving Japanese people living in the States versus those living in Japan, supported how lifestyle can be impactful in a powerful way.  Simple Actions That Have Huge Health Impacts Adding bits of physical activity or healthy food choices can result in non-exercise activity thermogenesis (NEAT). There are many ways to include physical activity in the office environment to avoid being sedentary.  Add more potassium to your diet to counteract too much sodium. Stop cooking with salt and instead put salt on the table to season the food when you’re eating. Having a community of people around lifestyle medicine can empower people to make those healthy lifestyle choices.  We live in a culture that pushes us in the wrong direction.  Culture and environment drive the health and longevity of people.  Integration and connection in all facets of our life, and creating a community that nurtures this are key. People living in Blue Zones have shown to benefit from health and longevity. Working At Zipongo  The use of a digital platform allows them to reach millions of people around the world. Their goal is to provide food that is convenient, affordable, and looks good.  Their Food Smart program suggests food based on your allergies, preferences, and the gaps in your nutrition determined by their NutriQuiz. Discounts are also available. Ordering from their platform removes the temptation of buying unhealthy food. New Frontiers In Lifestyle Medicine More and more physicians are becoming interested in lifestyle medicine. Research on gut microbiome shows lifestyle medicine has an impact on it. Gut microbiome also plays a role in how our brain functions.  The bacteria in our stomach can affect our mood. Work around irritable bowel syndrome shows that it has a link to mental health.    Other Podcast Episodes Here are the links to the other episodes mentioned in today’s podcast: Ep 005: Food, Mood, Microbiome and Your Memory with Dr Amy Loughman Ep 008: How Your Gut Health Affects Your Brain and Memory Health with Scott C Anderson Ep 007: How To Heal My Brain After A Stroke with Bill Gasiamis   Previously Recommended Resources   Articles:   Kicking Back Cognitive Ageing: Leg Power Predicts Cognitive Ageing after Ten Years in Older Female Twins   Steves, C.

I had the most incredible and educational discussion with the delightful Dr. Hana Kahleova. If you want to know what to eat for diabetes and weight loss then look no further! Hana Kahleova, M.D., Ph.D., is the director of clinical research at the Physicians Committee and directs research studies analyzing the effect food choices have on insulin resistance and the regulation of a healthy body weight. Her current research includes analyzing the thermic effect of food in response to a 16-week dietary intervention. Dr. Kahleova has published more than a dozen nutrition studies. She is the author of Vegetarian Diet in the Treatment of Diabetes (Maxdorf, 2013). She also wrote the chapter about using a plant-based diet to treat diabetes in Vegetarian and Plant-Based Diets in Health and Disease Prevention (Academic Press, 2017). Her favorite research topics include testing the effect a plant-based diet has on metabolism, insulin function, fitness, and mental health, as well as studying the impact meal timing and meal frequency have on metabolism and body weight. Dr. Kahleova earned her doctorate in nutrition and diabetes and her medical degree from Charles University in Prague, Czech Republic. As a postdoctoral research fellow at Loma Linda University in California, Dr. Kahleova analyzed data from 50,000 Adventist Health Study-2 participants. She analyzed data on meal frequency and timing in relationship to changes in body weight. She finds two to three meals a day, without snacks, are optimal for body weight control. This led to her recommendation to eat breakfast regularly and to make it the largest meal of the day. Dr. Kahleova’s favorite prescription for optimal health and wellness is to eat a whole-food, plant-based diet and to be physically active.

In Episode 59 I sat down with Dr Renae Thomas, MD who is is a Physician working in Loma Linda California, one of the Blue Zone populations that display incredible longevity and high quality of life. This is a really important podcast - sometimes in nutritional science we can become too reductionist and zoom in on potential mechanisms without appreciating the complexities of human-beings. Observational data from people displaying longevity, happiness and a high quality of life serve as a reminder that sometimes we need to Zoom Out and look to those who are living proof of what it means to be healthy. If you want to hear from an actual expert (a qualified Medical Doctor) talk about longevity and how to eat to avoid disease then you will love this episode. IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS: Where Renee grew up Her journey to Medical School Why she developed an interest in the role of food and medicine Why it's like working in Loma Linda, California What the Blue Zones are? Seventh Adventist's and the AHS studies - how vegans, vegetarians, pescatarians and omnivores compare in terms of health outcomes and mortality Typical clinical patient presentations in this population of Seventh Adventist's Contrasting populations nearby who have different lifestyles The type of diet that seventh adventists eat Renee's thoughts on the Ketogenic/High fat style diets and whether they are supported by science and much much more RESOURCES: Blue Zones website & books Renae's website AHS population studies: Vegetarian diets in the Adventist Health Study 2: a review of initial published findings Vegetarian Dietary Patterns and Mortality in Adventist Health Study 2 Beyond meatless, the health effects of vegan diets: findings from the Adventist cohorts.

Nobody gets excited about gray hair and wrinkles! Tracye and Mary McQuirter are living proof that the “Fountain of Youth” does exist and can be found right in your kitchen. The mother and daughter adopted a whole-food plant-based diet 30 years ago and it doesn’t look like they’ve aged a day since then. Clean eating and a regular dose of exercise are helping them keep Father Time at bay. Their new cookbook, The Ageless Vegan, is packed with 100 recipes promising to unlock “the secret to living a long and healthy plant-based life.” They highly recommend the pecan pie! The time-fighting duo sat down with “The Weight Loss Champion” Chuck Carroll before taking the stage in front of a packed house at the Vegan This! event in Washington, D.C. Did you know that vegetarians live significantly longer than those who eat meat and dairy? Women live an average of six years longer while men extend their lifespan by an average of 10 years, according to the landmark 2012 Adventist Health Study. Certainly, the McQuirters are on to something! Follow: @PCRM / @ChuckCarrollWLC Podcast website: http://www.pcrm.org/podcast Previous episodes: https://apple.co/2DIVaQ4

The Importance of Being the Solution: Transitioning Careers and a Journey Through University – Meet Daniel Morris   Daniel Morris may have  made the big transition from Australia to Montreal, Canada for love, however, Daniel’s transition from one career into another was a whole new world in itself. In this podcast Daniel talks about what it was like to return to College and into his Masters program. The challenges he met and overcame. Daniel also gives some great information on nutrition and health as well as the scholarship program that he developed for others and to create opportunities for future leaders. Daniel recognizes that he may have been the first blind person to graduate in his field and encourages others to go where their passions lead them. Be the first, follow your passion, and be the best that you can be. Blind abilities team member, Nick Dambrosio, interviews Daniel Morris in their hometown of Montreal. Although Canada and the United States are separated by a border, there is still a lot of common ground when it comes to accessibility. And Daniel has a lot to share from his experiences and knowledge gained over the last few years. So join Daniel and Nick as they discuss the challenges and successes in transitioning to college and to take the approach of being the solution rather than being the problem.   Here are some helpful links provided by Daniel Morris:   General nutrition website https://nutritionfacts.org   Adventist Health Study https://nutritionfacts.org/topics/adventist-health-studies/   Okinawan Diet https://nutritionfacts.org/topics/okinawan-diet/   Mediterranean Diet https://nutritionfacts.org/topics/mediterranean-diet/   McGill University Gosselin-Morris Scholarship https://www.mcgill.ca/giving/why-giving-matters/2018/01/10/couples-support-helps-break-barriers   Thank you for listening!

Her 18 year journey with Diabetes began with a jolt. She recounts leaving the diabetic teaching class and not wanting to eat anything! All she had was a childhood memory of an aunt who would bake them the most decadent cakes but she dare not enjoy them herself because "her sugar" had already begun to stake it's claim on her eyesight and it was trying desperately to see what other organ systems it could claim. But as Donna understood more and more how the body works, and how food is fuel she has managed her diabetes for 18 years now and she is helping others to connect the dots of the role diet and exercise has and in turn she is helping them to live more optimal lives.
