In March 2023, I created a piece of content that thoroughly examined the UK-only limited time offer branded pre-workout supplement that Gymshark created earlier that year by basically partnering with UK sports nutrition brand Applied Nutrition. And at the very end of that content, I mentioned that “I didn't think we'd be seeing Gymshark create a permanent supplement line or even tons of these LTO launches...at least in the short-term.” But since we're well past that timeframe mentioned, Gymshark just created another LTO supplement, and the activewear categorical boundaries have been decimated lately by investment decisions from ALO Yoga, NOBULL, and Reebok...I thought it was time to relook at my previous consideration if Gymshark should launch a line of sports nutrition supplements. And "from Nike to lululemon to Alo, these activewear brands aren't just selling apparel…they're selling a lifestyle.” Essentially, it's my belief that in today's marketplace, younger consumers (especially) are increasingly looking for visionary brands that are radically and bravely changing both our individual and global cultures with exciting and bold new lifestyle choices. So, if you weren't picking up what I was putting down…strategic narrative boldness is attractive and brand distinctiveness is highly defensible from a competitive landscape perspective but has become increasingly rare and difficult to achieve, as it requires both an artistic and scientific approach to create a unifying, central idea with the right combination and orchestration of all brand elements. Yet, as I mentioned earlier, several activewear brands have recently made strategic investments that sought to innovate around their consumer's specific lifestyles (and altered legacy categorical boundaries). But what about Gymshark? Why hasn't the activewear brand evolved past traditional product category constraints to own a larger slice of its customers' identity? And before anyone points towards company size (based on annual revenue), Gymshark reported growing 9% YoY and generated just over $800 million in revenue during its latest fiscal year…a number that exceeds or puts it in relatively close proximity to those previously mentioned activewear brands. Instead, I think Gymshark struggled to continually show up as its unmistakable self, as the activewear brand attempted to gain more acceptance across the adoption curve. Said another way…Gymshark got lost during its pursuit of more customers. And I think that became a major factor into why founder Ben Francis returned as CEO in August 2021, despite Gymshark successfully scaling from a smaller brand. So, after embarking on an almost four-year journey…there seems to be singularity and focus once again with the marketing and brand building strategy. And its revived brand distinctiveness harkens back to why Ben Francis originally founded Gymshark in the first place…realizing “no one really made clothes for the bodybuilding scene.” So, even though launching “Gymshark Nutrition” would undoubtedly create a loss of focus on the core business…and the current landscape is arguably even more challenging (and uncertain) for the apparel industry, I'm convinced Gymshark could successfully evolve past traditional product category constraints to own a larger slice of its customers' identity.

The Treasury Department has agreed to share tax data from immigrants living in the United States without legal status with the Department of Homeland Security. Former Internal Revenue Service Commissioner Danny Werfel explains the implications. And, layoffs at the Food and Drug Administration are expected to reduce the workforce by 20%. Susan Mayne, former director of the Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition at the Food and Drug Administration, talks about what those cuts could mean for food safety. Then, Shawnee Baker got a call that her adult daughter, Baylie, had been involved in an accident and was in critical condition. But because Baylie had not designated Baker as her health care proxy, Baker had no say in her daughter's care. Now, Baker is advocating for other parents to take an active role in their adult children's health.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

With rates of Alzheimer's and dementia rising steeply, especially among women, the conventional pharmaceutical model has largely failed in treating the brain. Functional Medicine takes a different systems-based, personalized approach—focusing on inflammation, metabolic health, and environmental exposures—which offers real hope for prevention and even reversal of cognitive decline. In this episode, I discuss, along with Dr. Heather Sandison, Dr. David Perlmutter, and Maria Shriver, why it is possible to reverse cognitive decline and the cutting-edge science of brain health and Alzheimer's prevention. Dr. Heather Sandison is the The New York Times bestselling author of Reversing Alzheimer's The New Toolkit to Improve Cognition and Protect Brain Health. As a renowned naturopathic doctor specializing in neurocognitive medicine, she's the founder of Solcere Health Clinic, San Diego's premier brain optimization clinic, and Marama, a residential program turning memory care into memory recovery. Dr. Sandison has dedicated her career to supporting those suffering with dementia and published her most recent clinical findings in the Journal of Alzheimer's Disease. She's excited to shatter common misconceptions about Alzheimer's and share what she's learned about keeping your brain sharp at any age. Dr. David Perlmutter is a Board-Certified Neurologist and five-time New York Times bestselling author. He serves on the Board of Directors and is a Fellow of the American College of Nutrition. He is the author of Grain Brain and Drop Acid, among others. Dr. Perlmutter received his M.D. degree from the University of Miami School of Medicine where he was awarded the Leonard G. Rowntree Research Award. He serves as a member of the Editorial Board for the Journal of Alzheimer's Disease and has published extensively in peer-reviewed scientific journals including Archives of Neurology, Neurosurgery, and The Journal of Applied Nutrition. Shriver is a bestselling author, award-winning journalist, former First Lady of California, founder of the Women's Alzheimer's Movement, and Strategic Advisor on Women's Health and Alzheimer's at Cleveland Clinic. Shriver works to use her voice and platforms to advance some of our nation's most pressing issues affecting women and women's health. In November 2023, Shriver joined the President and the First Lady to announce the first-ever White House Initiative on Women's Health Research, an effort led by Dr. Biden and the White House Gender Policy Council, to galvanize the Federal government and the private and philanthropic sectors to spur innovation, unleash transformative investment to close research gaps, and improve women's health. Shriver's advocacy led to the establishment of this historic initiative, and she continues to advise and collaborate with Dr. Biden.

Applied Nutrition might be growing above its previous IPO expectations, but can the company derive enough freshness from strategic partnerships to generate the type of consistent returns needed to win the hearts of external market stakeholders? Applied Nutrition Plc (LSE: APN) is a leading sports nutrition, health and wellness brand, which formulates and creates nutrition products targeted at a wide range of consumers and sold in over 80 countries worldwide. There are several product ranges under the Applied Nutrition Group, including the namesake Applied Nutrition, All Black Everything (ABE), Body Fuel, and Endurance. Additionally, because of a trademark issue, the U.S. division sells its products under the AN Supps company name. Over the first six months of fiscal 2025, Applied Nutrition reported generating revenue just shy of $60 million, which I believe would be an increase of around 19% YoY. It was also noted in the statement that the adjusted EBITDA margin was in line with expectations. And while no actual numbers were provided, we can assume an adjusted EDITDA margin around the company's historical average of about 29%. But I'll use that last point around strong net profitability as my transition towards analyzing the “significant progress towards its growth strategy” delivered by Applied Nutrition recently...and that starts with an existing capital allocation pattern reinvested profits back into the company's manufacturing capabilities and operational facilities. From previous financial documents, we know that about 80% of all Applied Nutrition products are self-manufactured, which allows the company to quickly evolve its product strategy to access emerging trends and fill opportunity gaps across the marketplace (positively impacting growth of distribution points and shelf space with existing and new customers). But that vertical integration element can also be leveraged by Applied Nutrition for geographical expansion…with about 60% of its total revenue currently being captured from commercial activities outside its home market of the UK. But arguably the most important geographical expansion progress has been happening within the United States. And the most notable news would be the launch of “AN Performance” products across The Vitamin Shoppe stores nationwide. Additionally, and this is partly in reference to that “freshness” introductory comment, but the company partnered with global fruit brand Chiquita to launch “officially licensed flavors” of several AN Performance products. And while I'm just a single peanut in the gallery of many…I've tried each of those AN Performance Chiquita products and I'd rate them very high in terms of flavor matching, flavor likeability, and formulation approach. Now…does that mean anything? I've certainly (let's call it “knighted” because of the company's British roots) many of the functional CPG products well before they went on to outsized mainstream commercial success, but most of my early conviction built around certain new products is directly tied to the “freshness” (aka appealing distinctiveness) of its brand strategy. So, while having those great (glocalized) Applied Nutrition products is a foundational element to unlocking any chance of U.S. marketplace success…I'll breakdown why I'm still hesitant to make louder and more confident declarations on the company's long-term success within the U.S. market.

Live from the Kyowa Hakko USA booth at Supply Side West 2024 in Las Vegas, Mike and Ben sit down for a functional beverage roundtable featuring Lou Ferrer (MacroCap Labs) and Darin Decker (Applied Nutrition USA). MacroCap Labs is a dietary supplement manufacturer that has aggressively moved into the canned beverage industry — they're the ones responsible for canning the wonderful XPO NRG drinks that were on display at the expo. Applied Nutrition needs no introduction in this space, but Darin joined us just before the exclusive AN Performance launch at The Vitamin Shoppe. This is a follow-up to the previous Kyowa discussion at SupplySide West 2023, #118: Ghost, Glaxon, & Cellucor on Branded Ingredients: Kyowa Panel at SSW 2023. The conversation highlights the shift in consumer preferences towards products with research-backed benefits, citing the decline in alcohol sales and the trend of more conscious consumption decisions. The panelists emphasize the role of education and access to information in driving this change, with Darin sharing the impact of resources like Ben's content in educating the market. The discussion then explores the challenges and trends in beverage manufacturing, with Lou providing insights on the need for simplicity and consistency in formulations. The panel also delves into the strategies for market penetration, with Darin emphasizing the significance of distribution, influencer marketing, and providing acute sensations and benefits to consumers.

How good are you at being honest with other people? Go on, be honest with yourself about that one! Coleen Rooney would always rather tell the truth before a situation escalates. In this chat with Fearne, Coleen explains how she's instilling that honesty is the best policy in her four sons, as well as why she's so grateful to have a village around her to help raise her boys. With four children, Coleen is in a lot of school gate WhatsApp groups, so she and Fearne spill what really goes down in those wild group chats... They also chat about how she and husband Wayne prioritise time as a couple, especially after so many years together, and what it was really like being thrust into the public eye as a teenager just because her boyfriend was a footballer. Plus, Coleen has dealt with some incredibly stressful situations in her life, so what does she do to make sure it doesn't overwhelm her?

What was once simply well-supported rumors has now turned into confirmation with an investment prospectus, official trading dates, and lots of legacy financial media hype. So, it's probably best that I update my Applied Nutrition IPO content from earlier this year, right? About a week ago, Applied Nutrition officially turned those late-2024 IPO rumors into reality by filing the appropriate investment paperwork. But while the global IPO activity has certainly been stagnant over the last few years (and investors are salivating for action), this Applied Nutrition IPO is arguably getting so much attention (at least from functional CPG industry professionals) is because there just haven't been many sizable sports/active nutrition brands going public globally in the last five years. Yet, as I've stated previously…sports/active nutrition is the “influential epicenter of all ingestible CPG categories,” there's an ongoing competitive landscape “changing of the guard” happening within every multibillion-dollar functional CPG platform, and it's just a matter of time before more sizable sports/active nutrition brands (or brand portfolios) will begin disrupting the global stock markets. But this Applied Nutrition IPO could become an important catalyst that builds momentum for similar activity over the next 12-18 months. As for the specifics, unconditional trading of the Applied Nutrition IPO is expected to start on October 29, 2024. Additionally, in terms of of the total share count available (and IPO share price), Applied Nutrition market capitalization would range between $440 million and $520 million. But in my latest first principles thinking content, I'll examine what needs to happen for Applied Nutrition to operate efficiency within the dynamic global functional CPG industry and become that valuable public company long-term. That includes assessing its business model, vertical integration, sales channel and geographical market expansion, and multiple pillars of growth. But for this final section of the content…I'll breakdown the strategic actions of the U.S. subsidiary of Applied Nutrition, which is arguably the most important market if they want to become that valuable public company long-term.

"Simon, I'd like to lose some weight before my next Ironman event. I'm going keto!” Believe it or not, I hear this on a regular basis and it makes me anxious for the individual. Keto diets have been very successful in helping individuals lose weight although that's mostly due to the body needing to store less water from the reduced carbohydrate intake. True keto is also very restrictive and difficult to sustain for more than a few weeks. It is also stressful on the body. Training for an Ironman is also stressful on the body, which is why attempting both at the same time has the potential for disaster. Having said that, I'm sure there are folks who have done this successfully and if you are one of them, I'd love to hear your story. The truth is that there are much healthier options for losing weight, if indeed you really need to lose any at all. My guest today is Registered Dietitian, Lexi Kelson, who's making her fourth appearance on the show. She has a Master's degree in Applied Nutrition with a focus on fueling for sports performance and is the perfect person to help us to understand the best approaches for endurance athletes to lose weight. In the world of social media there is a lot of noise, and it is difficult to work out what is nonsense and what to believe. So, if you are interested in getting to your race weight in a health and sustainable way for next season, by the end of this episode you will have a step by step process to help you do exactly that. We talk about: Do you really need to lose weight, and if so, why? Confounding factors which influence performance and weight Balancing health and performance goals How to track and monitor weight loss Strategies for sustained weight loss Influences of behaviour and culture Some considerations for aging athletes Balancing training and nutrition Guidance for peri & menopausal females regarding weight gain/weight loss Are meal replacements (such as Huel) a suitable alternative to real food?

Have a comment? I'd love to hear from you! S.4 Sp.4 - Extreme Eating Part 1: The Carnivore Diet, with Nutritional Therapist Mark Bennett.This week I spoke to Nutritional Therapist Mark Bennett. We spoke about extreme diets, specifically about the carnivore approach which is animal only products. We discussed its effectiveness, safety and how to implement and follow it properly. We also spoke about what happens in the body while its being followed. Mark has been on MM before, we spoke previously about Sugar, Sweeteners and Metabolic Damage (S.3 / Ep.18). We had a great chat then, and he agreed to come back on to discuss this topic with me.I'm very interested in nutrition generally, but especially in the extremes - from pure meat, to no meat - so I'll be covering the vegan approach too.The carnivore diet is a restrictive eating plan that involves consuming only animal products, such as meat, fish, and animal-derived foods like eggs and certain dairy products. It excludes all plant-based foods, including fruits, vegetables, grains, nuts, and seeds. The rationale behind this diet is that humans evolved primarily as meat-eaters and that consuming animal products exclusively can provide all essential nutrients.Proponents of the carnivore diet claim various health benefits, including weight loss, improved mental clarity, and relief from autoimmune conditions. However, the scientific evidence supporting these claims is limited and mostly anecdotal.Nutritionally, the carnivore diet can provide adequate protein and fats, including essential fatty acids and amino acids. However, there are concerns about potential nutrient deficiencies, such as vitamin C, fiber, and certain phytonutrients found in plant foods. Additionally, long-term adherence to the diet raises concerns about cardiovascular health due to high saturated fat intake and the potential impact on gut microbiota due to the lack of dietary fiber.Research on the carnivore diet is still in its early stages, and more studies are needed to fully understand its health impacts and sustainability.Mark BennettNutritional Therapist BSc (Hons) BA (Hons) mBANT CNHCCertified Gluten PractitionerNutrigenetic CounsellorMark is a functionally trained and qualified Nutritional Therapist, having achieved a first class honours nutritional therapy science degree. Functional medicine looks at the body as a whole and is focussed on identifying the causes of chronic disease rather than symptomatic relief. By intelligently identifying the root cause of symptoms and disease, targeted and individually tailored dietary and lifestyle interventions can be recommended to help the client achieve their health goals. Mark is a member of the British Association for Applied Nutrition and Nutritional Therapy (BANT), the Complementary and Natural Health Care Council (CNHC), as well as being a registered Certified Gluten Practitioner and Nutrigenetic Counsellor.

Is the “often imitated, never duplicated” influential epicenter of all ingestible CPG categories ready to disrupt its next market? And while the “best and brightest sports nutrition brands are now (or will soon start) competing against large CPG incumbents in every functional food and beverage subcategory over time…this isn't another content piece about the competitive landscape “changing of the guard” happening within mega functional CPG markets like energy, hydration, or protein. Instead, I want to provide further support for another one of my ongoing sports/active nutrition predictions…which is more brands will begin disrupting the global stock markets. The inspiration for this content came from reading last week's UK financial news piece that confirmed earlier speculations around UK-based sports nutrition brand Applied Nutrition moving forward with plans for a potential late-2024 IPO on the London Stock Exchange…seeking to value the company at more than $1.25 billion. For those that are unfamiliar with the sports nutrition brand, it began in 2014 when Thomas Ryder acquired one of the small struggling supplement lines he stocked in his specialty supplement store…believing its main product Critical Mass was being marketed incorrectly. Applied Nutrition would then go through an extensive strategic overhaul of every element from redeveloping products to rebranding and even shifting production away from Canada and into Belgium before deciding to build a manufacturing facility a year later. In 2021, JD Sports (the British sports-fashion retailer) made a significant minority investment that valued the company at about $100 million. The following calendar year, Applied Nutrition sustained the momentum by landing its first major grocery listings in the UK at ASDA, launching its Body Fuel line extension that started with an RTD hydration drink to take advantage of the “PRIME Effect,” and creating its first overseas subsidiary in the United States. But about 9ish months after entering the U.S. market, “All Black Everything” became (from what I know) the first sports nutrition brand headquartered outside of North America to land on all 4600 or so Walmart locations across the country. With successful large retail expansion also happening in the UK market, the beginning of 2024 saw the Applied Nutrition IPO rumor mill start up. And this was further supported when the company brought in Andy Bell to be Chairman, a seasoned entrepreneur that had taken his own company public six years ago…and hired an investment bank to advise on the process. I'll explain that despite respecting the asset-heavy build model, consistent top- and bottom-line growth, and overall ethics of the founder/company...I believe the reported valuation sought is more inflated than the Michelin Man! Also, the final section will breakdown arguably the most important market for Applied Nutrition, which is also the largest in terms of global supplement sales...as big changes have happened recently (or will begin happening soon) within the U.S. subsidiary of Applied Nutrition.

Dollar stores are the fastest growing food retailer in the United States, both by sheer number of stores and consumer food purchases. Just two corporations, Dollar General and Dollar Tree, which also owns Family Dollar, operate more than 35,000 stores across the country. However, a growing body of research reveals that dollar stores offer limited healthy food options. Dollar stores shape the food environments of communities, especially in the South and Midwest regions and communities in rural areas with substantial shares of Black and Latin people and households with limited financial resources. What do we know about the impact dollar stores have on these communities and the overall wellbeing of community members? The Center for Science in the Public Interest conducted a national survey to understand how people perceive and actually use dollar stores. Today we will talk with lead author of this study, Senior Policy Scientist Sara John. Interview Summary My first question is what do we know about dollar stores and healthy food access? There are more than 35,000-dollar stores across the country. So, to put that large number into context for people like me who have trouble processing them, that's more dollar stores than McDonald's, Starbucks and Walmarts combined. As you also mentioned, just two companies, Dollar General and Dollar Tree, control nearly all of them. Dollar stores really play a large role in food acquisitions for households. They can be especially important for households with limited incomes and those living in rural communities. These smaller store formats are much smaller than your typical grocery store or supermarket and tend to stock fewer fresh and healthy items. So, the body of evidence is still growing and we're still trying to figure out really how dollar stores interact with the food environment, whether or not they're driving out existing or potential new grocery stores or whether they're filling important food gaps in communities that otherwise lack food access. I am really blown away by the number. I must admit I did not appreciate that they have 35,000 stores across the US. I know that there is a growing body of literature, as you suggested. One of our colleagues, Sean Cash at Tufts has been working in this space along with others in various disciplines have been thinking about the role of dollar stores. I'm interested to understand why CSPI conducted a national survey of those or perceptions, and what were some of the key findings? As I mentioned, there's a lot of outstanding questions we still don't know. There have been more than 50 communities across the country that have already passed policies at the local level to ban or improve new dollar stores in their communities. But we don't understand community perceptions, usage and just I guess more plainly what people want from dollar stores. So, CSPI really wanted to take a stance to make policy, corporate, and research recommendations on this very quickly and growing retail format. But before doing so, we wanted to really make sure that we're centering our recommendations around what community members really want from dollar stores. We decided to conduct a national survey. We ended up having over 750 respondents from across the country of people with limited financial resources that lived near a dollar store. I have to say we were pretty surprised by our findings, especially given this popular sentiment that we have seen in the news media and with a lot of the local policy action. I would say that we found overall positive dollar store perceptions that people really are relying on dollar stores for food. But I would say just as many people want them to make healthy foods more available, affordable, and accessible. Could you help me understand how did people find them beneficial? What were some of the things that you discovered, in terms of the benefits? But I'd like to also hear what were the points of contention? Where did they want some difference? Community members had overall positive perceptions. I think there was about 82% of the survey respondents said that dollar stores helped their community rather than harmed it. And a lot of the key things that came up in the qualitative responses in our survey and the focus groups that we used to inform the survey was this overarching multifaceted concept of convenience. People said things like the store proximity, that they didn't have to walk a mile within the store itself to get to milk, and just an overall quick shopping trip. They also mentioned the affordability of products there. You know, not having to say no when shopping with their kids to something that's on the shelf. And then also a selection of specialty items - a lot of like different seasonal fare and things. Even using the phrase "thinking of the dollar stores as like going on a treasure hunt." You never quite know what's going to be there on the shelves. However, as you mentioned, there was also many deterrents listed for dollar stores as well. Things they could do better. So, low quality of products, the lack of predictable product availability, sometimes having bare shelves or not enough store supervision to be able to keep those shelves stocked. And also, the store appearance, both inside and out. Things like graffiti, trash, cluttered aisles. Those are all things that people that both shopped and did not shop at dollar stores noted in the survey. And all of this also kind of leads to another key theme that I mentioned at an overarching level, that people really wanted dollar stores to do more in terms of making healthy foods more accessible to them. So, 81% of our survey respondents thought dollar stores should stock more healthy items, and nearly as many thought they should do more to market and identify healthy options. We also included a list of more specific interventions of things that dollar stores could do to make healthy products more available, accessible, and affordable and one of the top responses was to provide SNAP fruit and vegetable discounts, kind of as one might see in like a Schumacher Nutrition Incentive Program at dollar stores as well. I'm really intrigued by something you all did in the survey. You looked at differences, particularly between SNAP participants and those who potentially are SNAP eligible, but non-participants. Are there any key findings you want to highlight about differences between those two groups? Yes. Many respondents generally mentioned being able to stretch their budget at the dollar store and this included more SNAP participants purchasing more food with their SNAP benefits at dollar stores. So, this was across many healthy food categories. We also saw SNAP participants felt more strongly that dollar stores should be held more accountable for the health of their communities as well. This is really fascinating. These findings are part of what leads you to some of the key policy recommendations. I'd be interested to understand a little bit more about what are the policies that you all thought should be considered or corporate response and even research action based on these findings. I'll highlight just a few. You know the first one at the federal level is strengthening SNAP retailer stocking standards. So, the vast majority of dollar stores do participate in the SNAP program and currently SNAP authorized retailers are required to stock a small number of items. So, three varieties of items across four different categories. However, if the SNAP program did have stronger stocking standards that better aligned with nutrition promoting foods like in the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, then all SNAP authorized retailers including dollar stores, would be required to stock more healthy items to participate in the program. Which is of course a huge benefit to the community. But also, a really important part of the business model of SNAP authorized retailers including dollar stores. At the local level, I already mentioned that more than 50 communities across the country have passed local policies, mostly to stop the spread of dollar stores such as through dollar store density ordinances. These look like saying a new dollar store can't locate within, let's say an existing mile, of a current dollar store. However, these policies are really only getting at new dollar stores and don't really do anything to address the existing 35,000. We also see an opportunity to strengthen and improve upon these existing policies and address what we found in the survey that community members want by requiring dollar stores to stock healthier food, make it more available, such as through healthy stocking standards or healthy food overlays in the local zoning code or even exempting dollar stores from these dispersal limits if they do stock a specific variety or number of healthy staple foods. At the corporate level, we're hopeful that this survey and its results make the business case to dollar stores for stocking healthier foods, making them more widely available. We've seen already actually both Dollar General and Dollar Tree moving in this direction. Dollar General, especially. I think about 16% of their current stores now do offer fresh produce. So, they're building out their supply chain, their distribution centers, and I would say retrofitting and redesigning stores to be able to make more fresh and healthy foods available. But we think they can do more, and especially do more in terms of prioritizing fresh food expansion in areas with lower incomes and limited food access. Many of these dollar store models started by locating in rural areas. We think if they could really leverage their ubiquity and where they're currently located to spread healthy food access to those communities especially, it could make a really big difference. We also have seen dollar stores in recent years put out public environmental social governance or ESG priorities. We think that these should be expanded and really prioritize healthy food access and nutrition goals. And one more thing I'll say around corporate recommendations is the expansion of the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women Infants and Children or WIC authorization of dollar stores. Currently, based on our scan of the current list of WIC authorized retailers, there are no corporate dollar stores that are currently WIC authorized. By participating in WIC, and by adhering to those much more rigorous healthy stocking standards, it could do a lot to make a variety of healthy product, fresh produce, whole grains, dairy, baby food, formula more accessible to moms and kids. I have to ask this question as a researcher, what are some important questions that the survey really prompted you to think more about or would like to have others come in and support research in this area? There are so many. As I mentioned, the evidence in this space is really nascent, but is growing. So, one thing I would highlight is that we really are proud of this survey and its national scope. However, the survey doesn't reflect all communities and their desires and wishes. And so we hope that this survey could be used as a model and could be replicated in local communities to inform local policy and corporate intervention. We also think there's a lot to still do to better understand the current dollar store food environment. There have been some studies that have been done at small scale in some states and localities, but we think that current instruments could be better adapted and specifically tailored to the dollar store environment to better understand them and their variation across the country. Especially as we start to see this shift in corporate practices. There is a lot of, again, variation in terms of different dollar stores and what they're offering. We also really hope that we could see dollar store corporations, and maybe this is overly ambitious, but to collaborate with researchers to better understand what corporations already know, to better lift up what challenges are associated with increasing the stock and availability of healthier foods. We know that cost space and supply chain complexities, this is not an easy solution, and so how can researchers work together with corporate dollar stores to figure this out. Also, we'd be really interested in piloting healthy food marketing interventions, thinking about how this shift in healthy product placement, price and promotion might be impacting customer purchases, customer food consumption, and ultimately health. Wow, this is a great set of ways for a variety of researchers to come in. It sounds like not only could academics do some of this work, but it sounds like there may even be space for citizen scientists to come in and look at what's going on in the food environments where they are to help inform that conversation. I think this is really fascinating. What's next for CSPI's work on dollar stores. CSPI really hopes to be able to support efforts to advance the recommendations we've made in this report. At least one I'll highlight that we've already started to work on, is we just launched a corporate campaign; Don't Discount Families, Dollar General. Really pressuring Dollar General to improve healthy food access at their stores through these WIC expansion efforts that I referenced earlier. So, making sure that dollar stores expand their healthy food offerings by adhering to those more rigorous WIC stocking standard requirements. Making those foods both available and more accessible to moms and kids participating in WIC. You know, that includes fresh, frozen, canned produce, whole grains, dairy, healthy pantry staples, baby food and formula, but also in doing so makes healthy foods more available for any customer that walks through a WIC authorized Dollar store. I would mention that in ways that you can get involved, please feel free to reach out to me if you're doing aligned work in this space. We also have a petition that consumers can sign onto, and we already have generated over 7,000 emails to Dollar General and that number is still ticking, so please join our coordinated advocacy efforts and we also working on a sign-on letter in terms of coalition building to get organizations and researchers who are supporting healthy food access through dollar stores. So, I encourage everyone to check out our resources and again, please be in contact if you have any questions.

In our latest episode of Supporting Champions, we had the opportunity to engage in a fascinating conversation with James Collins, recognised as a leading Sport & Exercise Nutritionist. In elite sport he has worked with Team GB Olympic teams and athletes over three Olympic Games. He joined Arsenal Football Club in 2010, where he spent seven seasons as the club's first performance nutritionist. He has worked as a consultant with England Football, France Football (2018 World Cup winners), and is currently a consultant with Chelsea FC. He was a project lead of an international team of 31 authors to produce the ‘UEFA Expert Group Statement on Nutrition in Elite Football‘, the best practice guidelines within the sport, published in The British Journal of Sports Medicine (BJSM). James is Managing Director of INTRA Performance Group working with talent from elite sport and entertainment from their Harley Street clinic. He was previously elected President of The Royal Society of Medicine's Food and Health Forum and is author of the acclaimed book ‘The Energy Plan‘ (Penguin Random House). Throughout our discussion, James shares his journey into the world of sports nutrition, providing insights into his experiences and the lessons he's learned along the way. His unique perspective, shaped by years of working with both individual athletes and team sports, offered a deeper understanding of the diverse nutritional strategies required in different sporting contexts. James has in recent years begun to branch out and apply his nutritional advice to businesses and take on interesting individual cases including a musician taking to one of the main stages in Glastonbury last year, the parallels between athletes and musicians seemingly not too dissimilar. https://twitter.com/jamescollinspn?lang=en http://jamescollinsnutrition.com/ https://www.intraperformancegroup.com/ https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/439206/the-energy-plan-by-james-collins/9781785042294 Hi, I'm Steve Ingham Sports and Performance Scientist co-founder at Supporting Champions.

In the dynamic world of crop production, staying ahead means understanding not just the 'how' but the 'why' behind effective agronomics. And that's exactly what we're unpacking in this episode. Foliar nutrition is more than just a trend; it's a pivotal part of modern agriculture, offering targeted, efficient, and quick nutrient delivery to your crops. We'll explore the science behind foliar feeding, how it complements traditional soil nutrition, its role in maximizing crop health and yield. how folier applied nutrition can help plants in drought conditions To help us understand this we have two experts: Dr. Rob Mikkelsen, Yara North America's Director of Agronomy and Delaine Madziak, Regional Market Development Manager for Western Canada. They are going to relate real-world case studies, and practical tips that you, as a grower or agronomist, can apply in your fields.
Welcome back to the 5-part Performance Base Layer Series on the Purple Patch Podcast. This series aims to emphasize the importance of the foundational aspect of high performance, which is the performance base layer. It's built on the foundation of positive habits that foster a strong physiological readiness for good physical and mental health year-round and for years to come. The Purple Patch pillars of performance, which include endurance, strength, nutrition, and recovery, make up the core elements of the performance base layer. Each week of the series, we have focused on a different pillar of performance. We started with endurance and movement, followed by strength and resistance training. Now, we move on to the third pillar: nutrition. Similar to the previous episodes, we will discuss this pillar from two perspectives. The first perspective is called "life performance," which focuses on anyone who seeks to improve their longevity, workplace performance, parenting skills, or anything related to their daily lives. The second perspective focuses on endurance athletes and highlights the specific needs and demands of seeking a podium finish. In this episode, Matt shares insights on developing a well-rounded approach to nutrition to help maintain health, get battle-ready, improve resilience and adaptability, and ultimately leave you poised for long-term success in any arena. Throughout this episode, we will use case studies and examples to highlight the importance of adopting healthy nutrition habits. We will also provide resources to assist you in your journey to better nutrition and developing your performance base layer.

[00:50] Why Dr. Perlmutter Dedicated His Life To The Gut, The Brain, and Uric Acid Dr. Perlmutter wanted to work to create programs that would help patients prevent the very diseases that they were trying to treat. Lifestyle choices really play a central role as we architect our brain's future. So, Dr. Perlmutter began to implement lifestyle medicine into his practice. Eventually, Dr. Perlmutter wrote Grain Brain to help people understand that lifestyle choices significantly impact our brain's destiny. Get Grain Brain here: https://www.amazon.com/Grain-Brain-Surprising-Sugar-Your-Killers/dp/0316485136/benazadi-20 After Grain Brain, Dr. Perlmutter started to study how the gut influences the brain's destiny. Lately, Dr. Perlmutter has been studying how uric acid disturbs our metabolism. [15:00] Why Dr. Perlmutter Decided To Write A Book All About Uric Acid Drop Acid: The Surprising New Science of Uric Acid―The Key to Losing Weight, Controlling Blood Sugar, and Achieving Extraordinary Health: https://www.amazon.com/Drop-Acid-Surprising-Controlling-Extraordinary/dp/0316315397/benazadi-20 The average rate of uric acid in America right now is six. People with high uric acid levels have an increased risk of dementia and Alzheimer's. There's a relationship between these diseases and uric acid. Uric acid directly leads to insulin resistance. [19:30] Your Body Is Retaining Uric Acid As A Survival Mechanism We tend to retain uric acid. Our uric acid levels can be higher as a survival mechanism, thanks to our primate ancestors. We don't hibernate for six months. Therefore, we don't need to be storing this fat for the winter that never comes. 88% of American adults are metabolically unhealthy. Getting Covid is associated with a 40 to 60% increased risk of type two diabetes. Individuals with higher uric acid levels have a higher risk of dying from Covid. [25:10] Your Body Can't Handle More Than Five Grams of Fructose At A Time Your body can handle some fructose, about five grams at a time. When your body is presented with high levels of fructose, it overwhelms what the body can do. When fructose is delivered in the context of fiber, it slows the absorption. So, it's better to eat an apple than drink apple juice. Vitamin C aids in uric acid excretion. The most common way to overdo fructose consumption is by drinking fruit juice. A 12-ounce glass of orange juice might have 30 grams of sugar. There's no way the body will be able to deal with that appropriately. [35:30] Tart Cherries As A Remedy For Gout and Lowering Uric Acid Levels Tart cherries have been researched for decades. Originally, tart cherries have been looked upon as a remedy for gout. It has been noted that people who ate cherries would have fewer gout flare-ups. Tart cherries are pretty darn effective in lowering uric acid levels. [36:40] The Health Benefits of Drinking Coffee Drinking coffee is associated with a dramatically lowered risk of Alzheimer's. Coffee is also associated with lower uric acid levels. Plus, coffee reduces inflammation, upregulates antioxidant function, and improves detoxification in the body. Also, coffee helps us grow new brain cells, no matter our age. [41:45] The Relationship Between Animal-Based Protein and The Role of Uric Acid Fiber is so essential for human health. Most of Dr. Perlmutter's food is plant-based. Regarding our uric acid story, certain meats or animal products are worse than others. Organ meats, sardines, anchovies, and scallops can raise your uric acid levels. The most significant issues for uric acid are fructose, purines, and alcohol. [48:20] Should I Follow A Ketogenic Lifestyle If I Have Gout Attacks? The most significant player in gout is fructose. When you research how to fix gout, there will be no talk about removing sugar or fructose from your diet. The human requirement for sugar in our diets is zero grams per day. We subsidize the growth of corn from which high fructose corn syrup comes from. We are supporting the diseases that are sucking up our healthcare resources. Diseases are significant money makers for the healthcare industry. It's time we start thinking about prevention. [52:25] What Role Does Mental-Emotional Stress Play With Uric Acid Levels? When we are experiencing stress, our ability to make rational, forward-thinking decisions is compromised. When your decision-making is compromised, you won't be making good lifestyle choices. Therefore, under stress, you will eat more foods that have sugar. Eventually, you will raise uric acid levels and feed the flame of poor metabolic health. It is time to make better decisions by lowering your stress levels. AND MUCH MORE!
