Alan Aragon, a nutrition researcher and educator with over 30 years of success in the field. He is known as one of the most influential figures in the fitness industry's movement toward evidence-based information. His notable clients include Stone Cold Steve Austin, Derek Fisher, and Pete Sampras."If there's enough total calories in the diet, enough total carbs in the diet, and of course enough protein in the diet, then the shifting around and the positioning of carbohydrate is best left to pretty much individual preference as far as positioning it for maximizing muscle hypertrophy." - Alan AragonLinks for this episodeNutritional Peak Week and Competition Day Strategies of Competitive Natural BodybuildersEffect of protein/essential amino acids and resistance training on skeletal muscle hypertrophy: A case for whey proteinThe Effects of Creatine Supplementation Combined with Resistance Training on Regional Measures of Muscle Hypertrophy: A Systematic Review with Meta-AnalysisArtificial sweeteners induce glucose intolerance by altering the gut microbiotaHigh-dose saccharin supplementation does not induce gut microbiota changes or glucose intolerance in healthy humans and miceEpisode Overview:00:07:17 - Carb timing for muscle growth, Carb timing is less important than protein timing when it comes to muscle hypertrophy. 00:13:59 - Ketogenic diet for muscle growth, While Ketogenic dieting works for many, it's not the optimal tool for maximizing muscle mass and retention. According to elite-level natural bodybuilders, an average of 2 grams of carbohydrate per pound of body weight during prep can help maximize muscle retention while losing fat. 00:15:43 - Carb timing and lifting capacity, Carb timing has less importance than protein timing when it comes to muscle hypertrophy. However, some literature suggests that lifting capacity is compromised when carbohydrates are not consumed, regardless of timing.00:16:21 - The Effects of Fasted Lifting on Performance, Lifting fasted can compromise performance, so it's recommended to have a mixed macronutrient meal with some level of carbohydrate within one to two hours prior to the lifting session.00:17:40 - The Anabolic Window, The idea that quickly absorbing protein and carbohydrates post-workout maximizes muscle protein synthesis has been debunked. Constant dosing of protein, carbohydrates, and fats throughout the day negates the need to hyper-focus on the immediate post-exercise period.00:22:17 - The Role of Carbohydrates in Maximizing Muscle Protein Synthesis, A study showed that when you have enough protein, you don't need to add carbohydrates to it to maximize muscle protein synthesis. The optimal dose for protein is between 0.4 to 0.6g/kg of body weight, which appears to maximize the short-term anabolic effect or maximize the muscle protein synthesis response.00:26:47 - The Benefits of Flexible Thinking, Training fasted vs fed depends on the goal and the population. While fasted training can lead to stronger anabolic signaling, compromising performance is a possibility. The best approach is to train when you can train, and when you can't, you can make it up later.00:32:58 - Fasting and Fat Loss, There's no net difference over a 24-hour period between training fasted and fed when it comes to fat loss.00:34:17 - Fasted vs. Fed Cardio, A study was conducted on untrained women comparing the effects of fasted and fed cardio on body composition, which revealed no significant differences in muscle preservation or fat loss between the two groups. 00:40:04 - Creatine Meta-Analysis, A meta-analysis was conducted on the effects of creatine on muscle hypertrophy and revealed a disappointing increase in muscle thickness among untrained subjects. However, the analysis showed a substantial increase in strength gains across multiple studies, even in highly trained subjects. 00:48:15 - Creatine Non-Responders, Creatine non-responders constitute about 20-30% of individuals who poorly respond to creatine due to various reasons, including high initial levels of muscle creatine saturation and differences in fiber type distribution across individuals. However, the majority of people who use creatine can expect to gain lean mass and strength. 00:52:09 - Benefits of Creatine, Creatine offers multifaceted benefits ranging from neurological health to musculoskeletal health and metabolic benefits. It can improve cognition, bone and joint health, and glycemic control.00:53:39 - The Benefits of Creatine, Creatine has been shown to help with cognitive function, joint health, lean tissue function, and even increase bone density. It's a conditionally essential compound that can be obtained through diet or supplementation. 00:56:10 - Seed Oils and Gestational Diabetes, There is speculation that Creatine could help manage gestational diabetes due to its ability to increase insulin sensitivity and muscle glucose uptake. Seed oils have been talked about as a monolithic species, but they should be considered on a case-by-case basis. 01:03:15 - Evidence-Based Nutrition, It's important to look at the evidence when it comes to nutrition and not just blindly follow internet fairy tales or appeal to nature fallacies. Vegetable oils have consistently shown better health outcomes compared to saturated fats. 01:06:20 - Appeal to Nature Fallacy, Just because something is natural or organic doesn't necessarily mean it's good for you (e.g. cancer). While there are benefits to going natural when possible, technology can enhance human quality of life in multiple domains, including food technology. 01:11:39 - Non-Nutritive Sweeteners, There are different categories of non-nutritive sweeteners, such as sucralose and saccharines. 01:12:07 - Artificial Sweeteners and Health Concerns, Artificial sweeteners are relatively harmless, and the doses necessary to achieve what they achieve are negligible. Stevia, for instance, has an array of potential therapeutic effects, whereas Saccharin has been shown to cause unfavorable changes in gut microbiome.01:19:01 - Reverse Causation and Disease Processes, Large-scale population studies that investigate the association between artificial sweeteners and heart disease, diabetes, or obesity are poorly controlled. It is much more likely that the opposite is true, with the state of having these diseases driving the consumption of artificial sweeteners to a greater degree. 01:21:08 - Convergence of Evidence, When both controlled interventions (randomized controlled trials) and observational studies (epidemiology) converge, we can confidently conclude that artificial sweeteners cause disease processes at the intermediate level and lead to actual disease endpoints. 01:23:40 - Personal Opinion, While Alan advocates for drinking plain water, he believes that consuming artificial sweeteners is a reasonable trade-off if it helps individuals reduce their sugar intake.We'd like to thank our sponsors:Become the best version of yourself and get 15% off Ned products by going to helloned.com/BETTER or enter code BETTER at checkout.Athletic Greens – redeem an exclusive offer hereFourSigmatic Use code DRSTEPHANIE for 10% offOrion Red Light Therapy – Use the code STEPHANIE10 for 10% offSchinouusa – Use code DR.ESTIMA10 for 10% offBIOOPTIMIZERS – receive 10% off your order with Promo Code “ESTIMA”The DNA  Company – $50 discount using code “DRSTEPHANIE” at checkout.HVMN Ketones – get 10% off your order with Promo Code “STEPHANIE”ILIA BeautyLiving Libations – Use code BETTER for 15% offLMNT Electrolytes – A FREE 7-flavor sample pack!PRIMEADINE – get 10% Off your Order with Promo Code “DRSTEPHANIE10”Follow Me On InstagramWatch Better! on YouTubeGet yourself a copy of my best-selling book, The Betty Body

Our guest, Dr. Michael J. Breus, is a clinical psychologist with more than two decades of experience in the sleep field. As a sleep expert, Dr. Breus advises women going through perimenopause and menopause to establish a regular, consistent sleep schedule to manage the hormonal shifts associated with these transitions. He also recommends deep breathing, hydration, and getting sunlight. "While there is no guidebook for managing menopausal sleep issues, these strategies can help to mitigate some of the symptoms associated with this transition," he says.Dr. Breus stresses the importance of maintaining consistent sleep routines and creating a comfortable sleep environment. He also recommends moderate exercise, avoiding alcohol consumption, and using technology such as temperature-regulating pads. While discipline in sleep routine is crucial, he stresses the importance of acceptance and relaxation, rather than trying to think oneself to sleep or worrying about lack of sleep.Links for this episode:https://thesleepdoctor.com/https://www.facebook.com/thesleepdoctor/https://twitter.com/thesleepdoctor/https://www.instagram.com/thesleepdoctor/https://www.tiktok.com/@thesleepdoctorEpisode Overview (timestamps are approximate):4:05 - How menopause/perimenopause affects your sleep8:21 - Can you “catch up” on sleep?12:00 - How sleep changes around your cycle16:31 - Instituting the daily nap24:09 - When to nap during your cycling27:12 - When to exercise for the best sleep31:28 - Alcohol, dehydration and sleep34:51 - How to use acceptance as a sleep aid39:29 - Why you got to the bathroom during the night46:02 - Should you breathe through your nose or mouth?52:42 - Are you a side, back, or belly sleeper?55:01 - Should you get a “sleep divorce?”1:01:01 - Where to find Dr. BreusWe'd like to thank our sponsors:Athletic Greens - redeem an exclusive offer hereFourSigmatic Use code DRSTEPHANIE for 10% offOrion Red Light Therapy - Use the code STEPHANIE10 for 10% offSchinouusa - Use code DR.ESTIMA10 for 10% offBIOOPTIMIZERS - receive 10% off your order with Promo Code "ESTIMA"The DNA  Company - $50 discount using code "DRSTEPHANIE" at checkout.HVMN Ketones - get 10% off your order with Promo Code “STEPHANIE”ILIA BeautyLiving Libations - Use code BETTER for 15% offLMNT Electrolytes - A FREE 7-flavor sample pack!PRIMEADINE - get 10% Off your Order with Promo Code “DRSTEPHANIE10”Follow Me On InstagramWatch Better! on YouTubeGet yourself a copy of my best-selling book, The Betty Body

Today's episode is a throwback to the Holidays of 2021, where if you were listening to the Better Show, we hope you were able to enact Dr. Stephanie Estima's advice for maintaining your diet goals. If you've ever gone on a diet and failed (who hasn't), it's not because of your body. It's because of your mind. Dr. Stephanie reveals the one mind-blowing neurological principle that can make or break your diet success. She'll reveal what happens in the brain and why most people throw in the towel and say F it to their diets. Then, she'll teach you how to "hack" your brain's pleasure centre to forever quit that toxic behaviour and get your health on track.Episode Overview: 0:00 Introduction3:15 Weight Loss Failure4:20 Calorie Deficit Diets6:10 Case of the F*ck Its7:10 Shame, Blame, and Guilt9:20 How Pleasure and Addiction are Related10:45 Changing Your Behaviour13:10 Unhealthy Behaviour Around Certain Foods14:58 Breaking the Addiction and Shame Spiral17:15 Bringing Awareness to Your Habits19:34 Dietary Boundaries20:50 Solidifying Your Habits22:00 Conclusion Sign up for my FREE MASTERCLASS: HEALTHY OFFERS - for health practitioners looking for strategies to earn more moneyAre you A Healthcare Practitioner?

This week on the Better show we bring back the AMA - Ask Me Anything with Dr. Stephanie Estima. We went to instagram and had a flood of questions, and the majority of them revolved around Female Muscle Building. We begin the episode by breaking the myth of Creatine especially for women's use of it. We then discuss the best ways women can gain muscle, as we aren't the same as our male counterparts. The age-old question that is asked of Dr. Steph, “Through training and nutrition, is there a way to gain muscle, but still limit fat gain?” Well listen in to hear the answer. Dr. Estima tells us how she feels about Amino Acids, and other ways to boost performance for training. We push into the next discussion around training Fasted, or training Fed, as some people may prefer fasted over fed workouts. We have a question about glucose levels rising during workouts and if it's normal to see that, and finishing off the episode with Dr. Stephanie's favourite protein powder. We are looking forward to our next AMA so be sure to follow Dr. Stephanie Estima on instagram to get the opportunity to contribute to the next one! Episode Overview: 0:00 Introduction2:00 Female Physique4:30 Creatine for Women20:30 Best Method to Gain Muscle for Women38:30 Strategy to Build Muscle while Limiting Fat Gain55:00 Amino Acids and Alternatives to Boost Performance58:30 Fasted or Fed Workouts1:00:30 Is it Normal to get a Glucose Spike during Fasted Exercise?1:04:20 My Favourite Protein Powder1:05:50 Conclusion Phil Maffetone Episode Link: https://youtu.be/qHKi0M3fPqQ My Favourite Protein: Use code "DR.ESTIMA10" for 10% offhttps://www.qnihealth.com/dr-stephanie-estimaMy Amazon Store:https://www.amazon.com/shop/dr.stephanie.estima?ref=prof_v_infl Sign up for my FREE MASTERCLASS: HEALTHY OFFERS - for health practitioners looking for strategies to earn more moneyAre you A Healthcare Practitioner?

This week on the Better Show we are pleased to present Dr. Stephanie Estima's second solo episode on Fasting for Women. Dr. Stephanie thought she would share part of her presentation that she showed at Oxford University, who are currently working in the Oxford Longevity Project. Today's episode is a continuation from PT1 which covered some of the differentials we have to consider when fasting as a woman. We continue our discussion on fasting for women with PCOS, what the symptoms are and what tweaks we can make to better your well-being. If you are an Estrogen Dominant woman, be sure to listen to this as your typical fasting instructional might be leading you in the wrong direction and you should consider a caloric-fast…and no that is not an oxymoron. Next Dr. Stephanie Estima educates us about chronic inflammation and stress, and how the majority of all humans have these symptoms. We discuss how fasting can benefit and sometimes rectify these symptoms like weight loss resistance, lack of energy, insomnia and difficulties staying asleep. The next topic is Leptin, the good old hormone that signals to your brain that you are full and to stop eating. Fasting can be more difficult for women compared to men, as a baseline women have 3-4 times more leptin than their male counterparts. We round out this episode of the Better show by talking about the negative effects of fasting on the thyroid. This impacts women that have been fasting for a long time, so be sure to test and look out for your thyroid as you incorporate fasting into your lifestyle long term, We hope this episode helped shed some light on fasting as a woman, be sure to go back and check out our previous episode on the topic, and we hope to catch you next week for our AMA! Episode Overview: 0:00 Introduction2:00 PCOS12:30 Fasting with PCOS20:45 Fasting with Estrogen Dominance    29:00 Chronic Inflammation & Stress 33:50 Leptin 40:20 Fasting's Impact on the Thyroid  50:00 Conclusion Link to Part 1 - Why Fasting for Women is Different with Dr. Stephanie Estimahttps://youtu.be/dREHxD1Mrdo Sign up for my FREE MASTERCLASS: HEALTHY OFFERS - for health practitioners looking for strategies to earn more moneyAre you A Healthcare Practitioner?

This week on the Better Show we are pleased to present Dr. Stephanie Estima's speech at Changemaker 2022. Dr. Stephanie Estima has over 19 years in practice, she's a best selling author, and ofcourse your host of the Better Show on this here channel. We begin by talking about the impact of dopamine and serotonin on our neurophysiology when we win. How and why it feels great to win, and how our brain remembers that joyous feeling, pushing us to win again. Dr. Stephanie explains the difference in longevity between winning and just missing out on winning by studies on Olympians, high level athletes, and on Nobel Peace Prize winners and runner ups life spans. We dive back into dopamine and how testosterone responds in accordance with its level. Winners and losers have different levels of testosterone, winning will set you up towards neurological momentum, and losing can send you into a neurological tail spin respectively. We continue with implementable strategies on how to increase your levels of dopamine, including chocolate, nicotine, the pursuit of sex, and exercise. Additionally when you think about something that is pleasurable to you, your brain will release dopamine as well as when you eventually engage in said activity. The dopamine and oxytocin increase we get when we are a part of a community is something we as a human species need and is great for your brain and longevity. Next we hear the pitfalls we can fall into by creating a reward system based around a future outcome, and how time seems to slow when we pursue that and will require a lot more dopamine to attain. We finish off this speech by discussing the mindset shift way from the outcome of winning and towards putting forth 100% effort. This change in approach can be drastically different and your brain will release dopamine during the process and not just at the end of the race. Episode Overview: 0:00 Introduction1:40 What it feels like to Win5:00 Winning's Impact on Longevity6:30 Dopamine & Testosterone10:00 Ways to Increase your Dopamine Levels  17:00 Dopamine's Impact on Time 19:00 Effort Reinforcement22:00 Conclusion Sign up for my FREE MASTERCLASS: HEALTHY OFFERS - for health practitioners looking for strategies to earn more moneyAre you A Healthcare Practitioner?

The Better Show welcomes Danielle Laporte, a best selling author, business strategist and poet to chat with us about how to live our lives through love and forgiveness. We begin our podcast discussing the hyper polarization in society post-pandemic, the polarization in our relationships, and the ego within that is coming to the surface. How holding onto the hate and frustration is unhealthy, and will negatively impact others around you whom you may hold dear. Learning to forgive, even if it doesn't come naturally to you, may be the way forward. Danielle touches on embracing your inner child not in the traditional way, as well and letting the virtue signallers virtue signal. We wrap up this in depth discussion by chatting about Religion and Spirituality, and how you can pick up Danielle's new book “ How to Be Loving: As Your Heart Is Breaking Open and Our World Is Waking Up”.

Dr. Christopher Palmer is today's guest on the Better show.

He's currently the Director of Dept. of Post Graduate and Continuing Education at McLean Hospital, and an Assistant Professor of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. We begin by explaining the role of the mitochondria in our metabolism and it's impact on the body and brain. We discuss new hypothesis in regards to mental illness maybe not being simply a chemical imbalance, and how exercise can aid in the remission of certain symptoms for a time. Chris educates us on the Over Active Brain, as well as the Under Active Brain, touching on the hormonal impact of menstruation and menopause on depression and anxiety. We polish off today's incredibly insightful episode with the origin of the Ketogenic diet, and how it's use can benefit certain people.

The Better Show welcomes Diana Rodgers, a registered dietitian and co-author of the wildly popular book “Sacred Cow: The Case for (Better) Meat: Why Well-Raised Meat Is Good for You and Good for the Planet”. Diana is a real food nutritionist and a sustainability advocate in Boston, hosts a podcast called “The Sustainable Dish Podcast” and runs her own clinical nutrition practice. We begin the episode by talking about the stigma around meat consumption and what and why our governments have such influence on eating red meat. We discuss the american diet and a brief history of Kellogg's impact on society at the beginning of it's breakfast cereal reign in the food industry. Diana explains the misconceptions around methane creation from livestock compared to other industries and it's impact on greenhouse gasses. How the myriad of plant based products actually use fossil fuels to be created, and how us humans with our diet and nutrition can alter our carbon footprint. Perceptions of what healthy looks like, pushing veganism in public schools and the virtue signaling being put on display on the daily is doing the planet a disservice. We weigh the balance of animal death, our own death as humans, and what animals we save compared to others. We finish today's episode with Diana diving deeper into alternative protein sources, and how they may benefit us as humans, or perhaps leaving us dissatisfied by crickets and insect protein. Episode Overview: 0:00 Introduction2:00 Governmental Meat Reduction 7:00 Reality of Raising Vegan Children10:00 Optics of Meat  16:30 Protein Leverage Hypothesis20:00 American Diet & Kellogg28:20 Carbon Emissions40:00 Obesity & Longevity50:00 Society's View on Death of Animals57:00 Alternative Protein Sources1:05:30 Conclusion Sign up for my FREE MASTERCLASS: HEALTHY OFFERS - for health practitioners looking for strategies to earn more moneyAre you A Healthcare Practitioner?

Dr. Mindy Pelz is becoming a fan favourite here on the Better show! She has been a guest a few times and we have a blast everytime we chat with her, plus some giggles. Mindy has just released her new book “Fast Like a Girl”, and how the female side of fasting is pretty different from the much documented male side of fasting. We talk about fasting and diet culture for teens, and how the menstrual cycle may be more complicated for our daughters in their later teens. We chat about navigating the topic of the birth control pill as a parent, and what the implications of that. We do an overview of the arch of a woman's menstrual cycle over her life and how we can fast differently during different parts of it. Mindy weighs into the benefits of fasting for women, how it differs from the traditional and male approaches. We always have a ton of fun when Mindy comes on the show, so we hope you enjoy! Episode Overview: 0:00 Introduction2:15 Fast like a Girl6:00 The Power of Estrogen15:30 Teenage Girls & the Pill25:00 Progesterone & Insulin Resistance31:30 Chocolate & Magnesium34:00 Knowing Your Body40:00 Toxicity Dumps  45:00 Fasting on your Period57:00 The Three P's1:01:00 Testosterone 1:10:00 Post Menopausal Testosterone Impacts1:17:30 ConclusionSign up for my FREE MASTERCLASS: HEALTHY OFFERS - for health practitioners looking for strategies to earn more moneyAre you A Healthcare Practitioner?

Tero Isokauppila joins us on the Better show this week and we had an awesome conversation that we are very excited for you to hear. Tero is the founder of Four Sigmatic, a mushroom company that you may have heard of. He is Finnish, a self-proclaimed nomad who loves fungi and being a food-preneur. We start off our conversation with a brief overview of mushrooms, and quickly dive into Adaptogens and Cordyceps, when and how to use them and what benefits they may have to your lifestyle & fitness routines. We discuss the thoughts around stress, and how certain fungi, food such as spices and other uncomfortable experiences can have a positive effect on the body and mind. We briefly touch on supplementation for sexual function before getting an education on Ginseng and it's many beneficial use cases. We round out the episode with an awesome link between Santa Claus and Psychedelic mushrooms and Tero's advice around the use of Psilocybin in today's society. Episode Overview: 0:00 Introduction3:15 Mushrooms & Humans10:00 Mushroom Species14:00 Adaptogens & Cordycep Use30:30 Adaptogen Use Pre & Post Exercise36:00 Immunity46:30 Benefits of Stressors52:00 Adaptogens for Sexual Function55:00 Ginseng Types1:00:00 Tero's Advice for Supplementing Adaptogens1:04:00 Santa Claus & Psychedelic Mushrooms1:19:00 Conclusion Four Sigmatic -Coffee, Protein, and more that support mental wellness. https://foursigmatic.sjv.io/drstephanieSign up for my FREE MASTERCLASS: HEALTHY OFFERS - for health practitioners looking for strategies to earn more moneyAre you A Healthcare Practitioner?
