Most people think tracking their protein is enough. The science says what your body actually craves is something far more specific and the person making that argument spent 23 years inside legacy media watching the wellness industry sell women everything from "bikini body in two weeks" to canned protein soda. In this episode, I sit down with Liz Plosser, former Editor in Chief of Women's Health, where she oversaw brands reaching 44 million women. We break down why the nine essential amino acids are what your body is really after when you chase protein, why BCAAs are only a fraction of the picture, and why a study found four of the top six creatine gummies on Amazon contained zero creatine. Liz also opens up about her own supplement stack, her shift from endurance running to heavy lifting, and makes the case that testing instead of guessing is one of the most empowering moves you can make for your health. Then we go deep on the science most people get wrong: why aging women struggle to pull amino acids from food, how essential aminos protect lean muscle even on rest days and for those on GLP-1s, the new research on high-dose creatine for sleep deprivation and Alzheimer's, and why collagen may not deserve the hype. We also cover the menopause misinformation epidemic, the 2002 hormone study that terrified the world, and what Liz puts in her own morning protocol. This conversation will completely change how you think about protein, what you supplement, and how you fuel your brain and body. *Reduce your risk of Alzheimer's with my science-backed protocol for women 30+:*https://go.neuroathletics.com.au/youtube-sales-page Subscribe to The Neuro Experience for evidence-based conversations at the intersection of brain science, longevity, and performance. _____ *TOPICS DISCUSSED*(00:00:00) Intro: The Protein Myth and Why Amino Acids Are What Your Body Really Wants (00:00:56) Protein, Amino Acids, and How Much You Actually Need (00:03:23) The Nine Essential Amino Acids: The Real Building Blocks (00:06:03) BCAAs vs EAAs: Why a Subset Isn't Enough (00:11:50) 23 Years in Wellness Media: What Liz Saw Change (00:14:18) The Menopause Conversation and Why It Exploded (00:23:17) Kion Aminos, Timing, and Whether It Counts Toward Your 100g (00:26:46) Liz's Daily Routine: Aminos, Creatine, and the Morning Glass of Water (00:27:42) Can You Take Aminos While Fasting?

Courtney Frerichs returns to the podcast for a conversation that goes far beyond racing. Courtney opens up about the difficult road back from major ankle and ACL surgeries, missing the 2024 Olympic Trials, and what it's looked like to rebuild both physically and mentally over the past two years. She shares how stepping into a completely new chapter of her career has changed the way she approaches training, racing, and confidence. We also go all the way back to Courtney's early days growing up in Missouri, playing multiple sports, doing gymnastics at a high level, and discovering running later than most elite athletes. She reflects on the impact her college coach had on her life and career, what made their relationship so special, and how those lessons still shape her today. Courtney also talks about moving to Park City, joining Ed Eyestone's group, racing with freedom again, and the mindset shift that helped her run her fastest 5K in over two years at the USATF 5K Championships. Topics Discussed: Returning to racing after ACL and ankle surgeries Rebuilding confidence after injury Letting go of comparisons to past versions of herself Missing the 2024 Olympic Trials Joining Ed Eyestone's training group in Park City Learning to race freely again Her silver medal race in Tokyo Growing up playing multiple sports The impact of Coach Butler on her career Finding longevity and joy in the sport again Support our sponsors: Huug makes high-quality bras and underwear designed to actually fit and support your body through every phase of life.

This episode originally aired as #597 on 12/20/25 and we are bringing it to you again! On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared breaks down amino acids—what they are, how they work in the body, and how to supplement them strategically for muscle health, recovery, fasting, metabolism, and healthy aging. He explains the difference between essential amino acids, branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs), collagen, protein powders, and whole-food protein, and clarifies when each one makes the most sense. Jared also walks through practical use cases, including workout performance, muscle preservation during fasting, age-related muscle loss, and supporting lean mass during calorie restriction—without hype! If protein goals, collagen, amino acids, or fasting protocols have been confusing, this episode delivers clear, practical guidance you can actually use.Products:Vitality Nutrition Essential AminosRebuild+ Functional Bone Broth Protein Additional Information:#573: Protein Showdown: Whey, Collagen, Bone Broth, Plant Based, and Beyond!Visit the podcast website here: VitalityRadio.comYou can follow @vitalitynutritionbountiful and @vitalityradio on Instagram, or Vitality Radio and Vitality Nutrition on Facebook.

Leveling Up: Creating Everything From Nothing with Natalie Jill
What if the protein you've been so carefully tracking is giving you a fraction of the muscle-building benefit you think it is? That question stopped me in my tracks, and I think it's going to stop you too. I brought Angelo Keely back to the show for exactly this conversation. Angelo is the CEO and co-founder of Kion, and he works alongside the top scientists in protein and amino acid research. Our last episode together changed how I think about protein entirely, and this one went deeper. Here's what we get into: your protein needs don't decrease as you age, they actually go up, and most of us don't know why. Angelo explains what's happening at the cellular level when you eat protein, why a smaller amount of steak eaten alone can outperform a much larger portion eaten with your vegetables, and what that means for how you're fueling your body every single day. He also breaks down why BCAAs are largely a waste of money (and might actually be working against you), what the research actually says about creatine for women (it does not make your muscles bigger, and the bloating fear is mostly myth), and how to think about leucine, essential amino acids, and what to look for on a supplement label so you're not getting ripped off. If you're on a GLP-1, dieting, or just trying to hold onto muscle as you age, the section on caloric deficits and amino acid needs alone is worth the entire listen. The research Angelo shares from Department of Defense-funded studies will completely reframe how you think about cutting calories and preserving muscle at the same time. This one is practical, science-backed, and genuinely eye-opening. Angelo is one of the clearest voices in nutrition science when it comes to cutting through the noise, and I always leave our conversations with something I can actually use.

Today on the podcast, I am talking with Jonathan Western, and this is a really special conversation leading into Boston Marathon weekend. Jonathan is a 2:46 marathoner who has truly built his running journey over time. He ran his first half marathon in 2012 and his first marathon in 2014, and then really found consistency around 2017 to 2018. Since then, he has fully embraced the sport. This will be his eighth consecutive Boston Marathon, and this year he is taking it to another level by running the Double Boston. He has completed 16 marathons and 21 ultras, and he is someone who clearly loves to challenge himself in big ways. We talk about his life as a runner, raising an active family alongside his wife Christine, who is also running Boston this year, and how running has become such a constant in his life. Jonathan also shares about a personal hardship he has walked through and how running has always been there for him through it. That thread really carries through this entire conversation and gives a deeper look into why he shows up the way he does. I love talking to everyday runners, and while Jonathan may not call himself elite, celebrating your 40th birthday with a 100-mile run definitely says otherwise. He brings so much perspective, resilience, and passion to the running community, and I'm really excited for you to hear his story. What we discussed: Double Boston challenge (running the course twice) Boston Marathon approach vs running for time vs experience Marathon PR (2:46) and race breakdown at Boston First marathon experience and early running journey Running with his wife and family life balance Jigger Johnson 100 attempt and embracing difficult races Road vs trail running and seasonal training approach Loss of his son Cooper and running through grief Mount to Coast partnership and Double Boston support setup Mindset: pursuing hard things and reframing failure Media mentioned Severance Foo Fighters Thank you to our sponsors: Mount to Coast is a performance footwear brand focused on supporting runners who push beyond traditional race formats, especially in the ultrarunning space. Rather than taking a standard approach to race weekend activations, the brand leaned into its identity by backing unique efforts like Double Boston, providing athletes with both gear and logistical support to take on unconventional challenges. Their C1 shoe is designed with long-distance comfort in mind, offering substantial cushioning that holds up over extended efforts on the road. The brand's approach reflects a commitment to endurance, creativity, and meeting runners where they are, whether that's chasing a personal best or taking on something entirely outside the norm.

#afrikaans #afrikaansmusic #braaibroodtjie #podcast #zianesaayman #storytimepodcast In this episode of Storytime, Joshua sits down with viral South African TikTok sensation Ziané Saayman, better known across the country as the Braaibroodtjie Girl.After exploding online through her unmistakable humour, bold personality, and massively viral food-themed content, Ziané has built a huge digital audience — with her TikTok presence growing rapidly through viral clips and her Instagram becoming one of the most talked-about young creator profiles in the Afrikaans content space. Her breakout single Die Braaibroodjie Reël helped push her into national conversation, becoming one of South Africa's most recognisable viral music moments.Joshua and Ziané unpack what it actually feels like when viral fame arrives overnight — the love, the criticism, the online hate, and why South African social media can be both powerful and brutal at the same time.They also discuss her move into music, the strategy behind building content that people cannot stop sharing, and how understanding audience behaviour has helped her repeatedly trigger the algorithm.The conversation also explores her latest single releases, her growing ambitions in entertainment, and how she sees herself evolving beyond viral moments into a long-term brand.To close the episode, Joshua and Ziané dive into a live taste test with Knox Hydrate, adding a fun finish to a conversation built around virality, identity, and modern South African internet culture.This episode is powered by Knox Hydrate — proudly South African and founded by Dricus du Plessis.

#afrikaans #afrikaansmusic #karlabosch #podcast #storytimepodcast In this episode of Storytime, Joshua sits down with South African singer-songwriter Karla Bosch, one of the most distinctive new voices emerging in Afrikaans music.Karla is bringing a fresh sound to the Afrikaans music scene — blending folk-inspired songwriting, emotional lyricism, and a uniquely powerful vocal style that sets her apart from anything currently happening in the genre. With a sound rooted in storytelling and authenticity, she is carving out a lane that feels both modern and deeply South African.The episode explores Karla's journey into music, how she first discovered songwriting, and the creative differences between writing in English versus Afrikaans. She also reflects on moving to Cape Town, finding her artistic identity, and navigating an industry influenced by legends like Jack Parow and Francois van Coke.Joshua and Karla also dive into her growing catalogue of music, including tracks such as Rooiwynliefde, Maanlig op die See, and selections from her EP Kleurblind (replace EP title if you want exact current release naming aligned to latest catalogue), while giving listeners a live feel for the Karla Bosch experience by playing some of her music during the conversation.This episode is powered by Knox Hydrate — proudly South African and founded by Dricus du Plessis.

Today on the podcast, I am so excited to welcome Jenny Simpson back to the show. She has been on the podcast several times, and it has been really special to talk with her at different points in her life and career. We recorded this episode in person at the Fleet Feet headquarters in Carrboro, which is just a short drive from my home in Raleigh. Getting to sit down face to face made this conversation feel even more meaningful. Jenny recently stepped into a new role as the first Chief Running Officer at Fleet Feet, and we talk about what that transition has been like. We also reflect on her career, from being a world champion and Olympic bronze medalist in the 1500 meters to the many experiences she has had since stepping away from professional racing. We talk about her seven marathons on seven continents in seven days, the RV trip she and her husband took across the country visiting running stores and communities in every state, and how those experiences have shaped what she is doing now. Jenny is one of those people who makes you feel seen. She shows up fully in conversation, and you can feel how deeply she cares about people and the running community. I know you are going to feel that in this episode. I hope you enjoy this conversation with Jenny Simpson.

„BCAAs sind besonders wichtig im Muskelstoffwechsel und können in bestimmten Trainingskontexten das Muskelwachstum unterstützen.“ Branched-Chain Amino Acids gehören seit Jahren zu den bekanntesten Supplements im Fitnessbereich. Sie stehen für Muskelaufbau, Regeneration und Leistungsfähigkeit. Doch wie relevant sind ihre Effekte wirklich – und wie ordnet die Wissenschaft ihre Rolle ein? In dieser HEALTH NERDS Deep Dive Episode spricht Podcast-Host Felix Moese mit Gesundheitswissenschaftler Matthias Baum über die Funktion von BCAAs im menschlichen Körper. Die sogenannten „Branched Chain Amino Acids“ – Leucin, Isoleucin und Valin – zählen zu den essentiellen Aminosäuren und müssen über die Ernährung aufgenommen werden. Im Zentrum steht eine entscheidende Eigenschaft: BCAAs sind nicht nur Bausteine für Muskulatur, sondern wirken auch als Signalgeber. Vor allem Leucin spielt dabei eine Schlüsselrolle. Es aktiviert über den mTOR-Signalweg die Muskelproteinsynthese – allerdings nur dann, wenn ein Trainingsreiz gesetzt ist und alle notwendigen Aminosäuren verfügbar sind. Genau hier liegt der entscheidende Punkt: Für den Aufbau von Muskelprotein reicht ein isolierter Reiz nicht aus. Der Körper benötigt das vollständige Spektrum an essentiellen Aminosäuren. BCAAs können Prozesse unterstützen, aber keine vollständige Proteinversorgung ersetzen. Gleichzeitig zeigt sich: In bestimmten Situationen kann eine gezielte Ergänzung sinnvoll sein – etwa bei intensiven Trainingsphasen, im Alter oder bei eingeschränkter Proteinzufuhr. Entscheidend ist der Kontext. Diese Folge liefert die Einordnung: Welche Funktion haben BCAAs wirklich? Welche Rolle spielt Leucin im Muskelstoffwechsel? Und wann ergibt eine Supplementierung tatsächlich Sinn? HEALTH NERDS. Mensch, einfach erklärt.

In this video, I'll break down the cancer parasite theory and whether anti-parasitic drugs could be an option for cancer alternative treatment.0:00 Introduction: Stage 4 cancer remission0:38 Cancer research 2025 1:14 Cancer metabolism explained 3:57 Cancer parasite theory4:52 Natural cancer remedies 6:20 Cancer alternative treatment 7:20 Cancer prevention tips 8:03 Cancer and the immune system Download Dr. Berg's Free Daily Health Routine: https://drbrg.co/45qtO07A drug designed to kill parasites has shown promising results in remission of stage 4 cancer, but no major cancer center will run a clinical trial on it.At the molecular level, cancer is a parasite. It consumes your resources as it spreads throughout the body. In 2025, over 2 million Americans were diagnosed with cancer, and a 79% increase in cancer among young people has been reported.Cancer cells operate in a primitive survival mode, utilizing glycolysis for energy. Cancer thrives in an environment where our cells are struggling, and our mitochondria are damaged. Cancer cells are highly adaptive and can survive on glutamine, BCAAs, and even ketones at advanced stages. Researchers have identified 3 different survival systems typically used by parasites, fungi, worms, and cancer:1. Internal scaffolding 2. Prevention of the self-destruction of damaged cells3. Utilization of glycolysisAnti-parasitic drugs and remedies such as fenbendazole, ivermectin, wormwood, black walnut hulls, and cloves can dismantle the survival mechanisms of parasites, worms, and cancer cells. In addition to natural cancer remedies, you need to stop eating foods that feed cancer. Eliminate sugar, starches, and junk food from your diet. Rotating your diet and fasting schedule can also help. A strong immune system is the most powerful weapon against cancer. Your killer T cells and natural killer cells can kill cancer directly. To support these cells, increase vitamin D levels and focus on fasting, adequate sleep, and exercise.Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

Kellyn Taylor is back on the podcast after a huge few weeks of racing. She won the Austin Marathon in 2:33 and then turned around and ran 2:27 for second place at the LA Marathon. Kellyn called LA the hardest marathon course she has ever raced, which makes that result even more impressive. Kellyn is one of the most respected marathoners in the sport, with five top-10 finishes at the New York City Marathon and several close calls at the Olympic Trials. She is also a mom of four and is now stepping into a brand new chapter after being accepted into the Fire Academy, something she has dreamed about for a long time. Kellyn talks about both marathons, what this season has looked like, and what it means to keep chasing big goals in running while also preparing for a demanding new career. Topics Winning the Austin Marathon in 2:33 Finishing second at the LA Marathon in 2:27 Using Austin as part of the buildup to LA Why Kellyn says LA was the hardest marathon course she has raced Her history of success at the New York City Marathon Coming close to the podium at multiple Olympic Trials Motherhood and training as a mom of four Getting accepted into the Fire Academy Starting a new phase of life while still racing at a high level Chasing PRs and staying motivated in this season Thank you to our sponsors: Geist Half Race Series Go to geisthalf.com and use the code “Another26” for $10 off any race distances.

Emily Mackay joins me on the podcast after a huge moment in her career, winning her first national title in the 3000 meters at the USATF Indoor Championships. Emily is no stranger to the world stage. She competed in the 2024 Paris Olympics and is also a World Indoor bronze medalist, but capturing her first national title was a really special milestone. In this episode we talk all about that race, what it felt like to finally get that win, and what the moment meant after years of competing at such a high level. Emily is sponsored by New Balance and currently trains with Union Athletics Club under coach Pete Julian. Last summer she made the move from Team New Balance Boston to Union Athletics Club, and we talk about that transition, what training has looked like in this new environment, and how the change has helped her continue to grow as an athlete. We also talk about what's next as Emily prepares to compete at the World Indoor Championships in the 3000 meters in Poland. It's always fun catching up with Emily. This is actually her fourth time on the podcast, and it's been incredible to follow her journey over the years and see the progression in her career.

If you want to get leaner and live longer check out https://milliondollarbodylabs.com Are you wasting money on "miracle" supplements while ignoring the simple habits that actually build muscle, protect your brain, and help you live longer? I talk with Alex Jamal. We discuss fitness. Alex explains bodybuilding. I ask about peptides. We cover health. We talk about supplements. Alex mentions creatine. We discuss brain function. We talk about sleep. Alex shares thoughts on amino acids. I mention my experiment with leucine. We talk about pre-workout drinks. We discuss blood flow. I share my experience using baking soda. We focus on consistency. Alex describes her background. We provide a guide for people. Key Takeaways Peptides and unverified supplements often lack long-term data and third-party testing, making them risky compared to established options. Creatine provides significant benefits for brain health and may reduce the risk of dementia or Alzheimer's. Essential Amino Acids (EAAs) are more effective for muscle protein synthesis than taking branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) or leucine alone. Sleep is a highly underrated factor for muscle recovery and hormonal health, especially for men. Stimulant-free pre-workouts allow for better blood flow (vasodilation) compared to high-caffeine options that constrict vessels. Baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) can increase endurance by about 30% during high-intensity isometric or endurance activities, but requires careful dosing to avoid digestive issues. Consistency for at least six to eight weeks is necessary to see real physiological changes in the body.

Today we discuss supplements including protein powder, creatine, caffeine, fish oil, vitamin D3, magnesium, beta-alanine, citrulline malate, BCAAs and much more.
In this episode, Dr. Jockers dives into the truth about protein powders, revealing their impact on your metabolism and insulin levels. You'll learn how different protein powders can affect your body's ability to process them and whether they align with your health goals. Discover why whey protein stands out as the best choice for muscle building due to its high leucine content. Dr. Jockers explains the role of leucine in muscle protein synthesis and how to choose the right protein powder for optimal results. You'll also explore the pros and cons of plant-based proteins and collagen, along with their specific benefits for gut health, skin, and joints. Dr. Jockers shares why these options may be beneficial for certain health goals while comparing them to animal-based proteins.

Most people focus on how much protein they eat, but Oliver Amdrup-Chamby, founder of health and wellness supplement brand Puori, argues the bigger question is whether your protein source is potent enough to support muscle as you age, and clean enough to use daily. He explains why leucine matters for muscle protein synthesis, and why plant and animal proteins can look very different once you factor in calories, volume, and digestibility. Then the conversation turns practical: what “third-party tested” should actually mean, why powders can concentrate contaminants, how to see through BS marketing, how to avoid toxins and more.

Calli Hauger-Thackery and Sara Hall join Lindsey together after going 1–2 at the Houston Marathon, where they trained side by side leading into race day. Calli ran 2:24:17 for the win, and Sara finished second in 2:26:26 after a build up that was not originally supposed to include the full marathon. They talk through the quick turnaround from their December marathons, what it takes to recover and race again, and how their shared approach to training has made the work more fun and more sustainable. The conversation also gets into the behind-the-scenes of being coached by their husbands, how they collaborate as a four-person team, and what it looks like to balance ambition with longevity, family life, and joy in the process. Sara shares more about her upcoming memoir, For the Love of the Grind, including why she wanted to write it and the lessons she hopes athletes take from it. Topics Discussed: Houston Marathon recap and going 1–2 together Back-to-back marathons and managing the recovery window Sara's original plan to run the half, and why she finished the full marathon How Calli stayed composed when things got hard early in the race Training partnership: why they are better together and how they compromise Their husbands coaching them and how the dynamic works day to day Strengths they bring to the group: long run strength, speed work, and racing frequency “Loving the grind,” longevity, and Sara's mindset shift over the years Sara's book For the Love of the Grind and what readers can expect Flagstaff training life, and why they love it and hate it Support Our Sponsors: Donna Marathon Weekend — Jacksonville, FL, February 1–2, 2025.

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared breaks down amino acids—what they are, how they work in the body, and how to supplement them strategically for muscle health, recovery, fasting, metabolism, and healthy aging. He explains the difference between essential amino acids, branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs), collagen, protein powders, and whole-food protein, and clarifies when each one makes the most sense. Jared also walks through practical use cases, including workout performance, muscle preservation during fasting, age-related muscle loss, and supporting lean mass during calorie restriction—without hype! If protein goals, collagen, amino acids, or fasting protocols have been confusing, this episode delivers clear, practical guidance you can actually use.Products:Vitality Nutrition Essential AminosRebuild+ Functional Bone Broth Protein Additional Information:#573: Protein Showdown: Whey, Collagen, Bone Broth, Plant Based, and Beyond!Visit the podcast website here: VitalityRadio.comYou can follow @vitalitynutritionbountiful and @vitalityradio on Instagram, or Vitality Radio and Vitality Nutrition on Facebook.

In Episode 267 of the Fit Father Project Podcast, Dr. Anthony sits down with Angelo Keely, CEO and co-founder of Kion, for a deep dive into the science of essential amino acids (EAAs) and why they are so powerful for men over 40. Angelo explains how protein actually works inside the body, why EAAs stimulate far more muscle protein synthesis than regular protein foods, and how aging creates anabolic resistance that EAAs can help overcome. You'll learn the key differences between whole-food protein, whey protein, BCAAs, and EAAs — and why EAAs consistently outperform every other option for muscle building, recovery, and healthy aging. Angelo also shares practical timing strategies, fasting considerations, and daily routines to help you maximize your results, especially if you're a man over 40 looking to protect or rebuild lean muscle. If you want to get more from your workouts, maintain muscle as you age, and use supplements more effectively, this Fit Father Project Podcast episode will completely upgrade how you think about protein and performance.Key Takeaways:Essential Amino Acids (EAAs) = the active component of proteinEAAs stimulate 3–6x more muscle protein synthesis than wheyDigestion slows with age → anabolic resistance increasesLeucine-enriched EAAs overcome anabolic resistanceBest time: before training for maximum uptakeEAAs help maintain muscle during fastingWhole-body protein synthesis matters beyond muscleOlder adults benefit most from pulsed amino intakeAvoid BCAAs alone — ineffective without all 9 EAAsEAAs have almost no calories & don't suppress appetiteMore About Kion and Angelo KeelyWebsite: visit getkion.com/fitfather for 20% offKion's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kion/Biographical Information on Angelo KeelyAngelo is the co-founder and CEO of Kion, an active lifestyle, supplement and functional food company dedicated to helping people fully experience a fun and active life by providing pure, energy-enhancing solutions.MitoQ's NAD+ Dual Action Supplement MitoQ's NAD+ dual action ensures your cells are getting the most out of your NAD+ supplement by effectively boosting NAD+ levels and optimizing your cells to use it, leading to more energy, reduced fatigue, and better focus and mental clarity.

The Dad Edge Podcast (formerly The Good Dad Project Podcast)
In this special Father-Son Wednesday edition of the Dad Edge Podcast, Ethan and I have an open and heartfelt conversation about the kind of legacy we want to leave—not in terms of money, but in how we show up for our families, our faith, and our future. With Halloween around the corner, we explore the idea of what truly haunts fathers—missed moments, emotional distance, and failing to lead with purpose. We dive into what it means to lead a family spiritually without pushing religion, how a father's love for his wife becomes a model for children, and how intentional home culture shapes future generations. Ethan shares his vision for his future family and career as a firefighter—and how he wants to lead by presence, not pressure. EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS [0:00] – Introduction [1:15] – Ethan's "Winter Arc" and using seasons to spark growth [2:59] – Redefining legacy beyond wealth or achievements [5:14] – Why health and strength are crucial to long-term fatherhood [8:32] – Spiritual leadership without religiosity [10:04] – Passing down a relationship with God to future generations [12:33] – Faith, emotional safety, and keeping an open mind [15:21] – Ethan's vision of future fatherhood and home culture [17:42] – How your home environment speaks louder than your words [20:07] – The impact of loving your spouse well in front of your kids [23:15] – Why we choose to gross our kids out with affection—not arguments [24:49] – The power of being the "warrior in the garden" [25:29] – Ethan's passion for firefighting and leaving impact [27:56] – Halloween memories, safety tips, and shoutouts 5 KEY TAKEAWAYS 1. Legacy Is Emotional, Not Just Financial The mark we leave on our kids isn't in bank accounts—it's in the daily presence, protection, and love they feel from us. 2. Faith Is Modeled, Not Mandated Ethan speaks on how he wants to raise his future family to know God through a relationship—not religion—and how that shaped his upbringing. 3. Your Marriage Is the Blueprint How you treat your wife sets the tone for how your kids will approach love, commitment, and conflict in their own relationships. 4. Presence Over Perfection Kids remember if you were there and emotionally available—not if you were flawless. Being the safe space is what sticks. 5. Strength Is Best When Softened by Love Ethan reflects on the need for dads to be both strong and gentle—to be warriors in the garden, not tyrants in the home.

Cancer prevention starts with the diet. Depending on what you eat, you're either starving cancer or feeding it! Discover the best cancer prevention diet and my expert tips to prevent cancer and support the immune system. Download this FREE guide for the 5 diet strategies for cancer care: https://drbrg.co/4om43oQ0:00 Introduction: The best cancer prevention diet 1:26 Cancer explained2:39 Cancer and your immune system3:30 Starving cancer5:45 Cancer prevention tips 6:39 The best cancer diet11:13 Healthy eating for cancer prevention12:36 Starving cancer with fasting13:27 More cancer prevention tipsTrillions of dollars are spent on cancer research, yet the mortality rates haven't changed in decades. Cancer is a heterogeneous disease, which means there are many different types. Understanding how cancer works is key to cancer prevention. Cancer tends to spread to areas of inflammation and to regions in the body where oxygen is scarce.Cancer is constantly evading your immune system! Vitamin D is essential for the health and proper functioning of your immune system. Cancer cells tend to block the receptors for vitamin D to combat this. It's beneficial to increase your vitamin D levels to penetrate the resistance created by cancer.Understanding which fuel a specific cancer uses is key to starving cancer. The majority of cancers utilize glucose and glutamine as their primary sources of fuel. Some cancers live on lipids and BCAAs, and some can even live on ketones! Cancer is highly adaptive, so effective cancer prevention requires multiple strategies, including diet rotation and intermittent fasting.Different types of cancer require the removal of different foods from the diet. Rotating the diet and removing the fuel that a specific type of cancer needs to survive prevents cancer from growing and taking over. Healthy Keto paired with intermittent fasting is the best diet for cancer prevention. Prolonged fasting is one of the best things you can do if you have cancer. Although some cancers can survive on ketones, ketones from fasting do not feed cancer cells. To prevent cancer and support the immune system, keep your blood levels of vitamin D at around 90-100 ng/mL. Incorporate regular exercise and prioritize both intermittent and prolonged fasting.Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.
