Podcasts about body fat

In this episode of Mind Pump, Sal, Adam, and Justin break down why cutting body fat isn't always the best strategy; especially for women already around 22% body fat, and explain why building muscle often produces a leaner, healthier physique. They discuss the physiological effects of dieting too lean, including hormonal disruptions, reduced metabolism, and performance declines. The conversation also explores strength gains, muscle memory, recovery, sleep optimization, and the surprising cognitive benefits of creatine. Later, the hosts highlight the impact of good coaching and education in the fitness industry while sharing stories from clients seeing life-changing results. In the listener Q&A, they help callers with physique competition prep, weight-loss plateaus, strength programming, postpartum training, and balancing fitness with a newborn. The episode wraps with practical advice on building muscle, improving metabolism, and creating sustainable long-term fitness habits.

Are low sugar lollies actually healthier… or just clever marketing? This week on The Nutrition Couch, Susie and Leanne take a deep dive into the booming “better-for-you” confectionery trend and unpack whether these fibre-based, low-sugar lollies are genuinely a smarter choice — or simply another ultra-processed product wearing a health halo. With brands like Fun Day dominating supermarket checkouts, are we being lured into a false sense of security? But that’s not all. Leanne shares compelling new research (January 2026) linking body fat distribution — not just body weight — to brain structure, cognitive performance and neurological disease risk. The findings raise important questions about muscle mass, abdominal fat, rapid weight loss, and long-term brain health. Plus: A practical review of convenient pre-prepared vegetables and whether they’re worth the price The truth about Aldi’s lower carb white bread and why not all “low carb” options are created equal A bigger conversation about ultra-processed foods and health star ratings This episode cuts through marketing noise and brings you back to what truly matters for long-term health, metabolic function and cognitive protection. If you’ve ever stood in the lolly aisle wondering “Is this actually better?” — this one’s for you.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Send a textThe biology of fat tissue, estrogen's role in metabolism and health, and how exercise interacts with these processes, especially during menopause.TOPICS DISCUSSED:Adipose tissue basics: White fat primarily stores energy in large lipid droplets, while brown fat burns fatty acids for heat via high mitochondrial density; white fat can “brown” with exercise or certain foods like capsaicin.Fat distribution & health: Subcutaneous fat (under skin) is more insulin-sensitive and less problematic than visceral fat (around organs), which links to metabolic issues; females store more subcutaneously pre-menopause, shifting to visceral post-menopause.Estrogen signaling: Estradiol binds nuclear and membrane receptors to regulate gene expression and mitochondrial function; it enhances insulin sensitivity and browning in fat cells, with receptors like ER-alpha feminizing fat distribution.Fat storage: Fat cells enlarge (hypertrophy) more than multiply in obesity, leading to hypoxia, inflammation, and insulin resistance; excess fatty acids spill to liver and muscle, worsening metabolic dysfunction.Menopause effects: Estrogen drop causes visceral fat gain, reduced energy expenditure, insulin resistance, and higher metabolic disease risk; symptoms include hot flashes and reduced exercise motivation, modeled in rodents via ovary removal.Exercise & estrogen links: Exercise boosts estrogen receptor expression and mitochondrial density in fat, mimicking estrogen's browning effects; synergism may explain reduced exercise responsiveness post-menopause.Brain-fat connections: Estrogen in the nucleus accumbens influences exercise motivation and fat browning; manipulations there alter running behavior and adipose metabolism in rodents.ABOUT THE GUEST: Victoria Vieira-Potter, PhD leads a lab at the University of Missouri, studying how estrogen and exercise influence adipose cells.RELATED EPISODE:M&M 174 | Adipose Tissue & Body Fat: Obesity, Insulin, Leptin, Fertility, Weight Loss & GLP-1 Drugs | Sean HartigSupport the showHealth Products by M&M Partners: SporesMD: Premium mushrooms products (gourmet mushrooms, nootropics, research).

STOP intermittent fasting if you think it automatically keeps you young. In this episode, you'll learn why short-term fasting results can mislead long-term aging outcomes, and how duration, frequency, refeeding, and protein intake determine whether fasting supports longevity or quietly accelerates decline. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Valter Longo, one of the world's leading longevity researchers with over 30 years of experience studying aging, nutrition, and disease prevention. Dr. Longo is the Director of the Longevity Institute at the University of Southern California's Leonard Davis School of Gerontology and the Director of the Longevity and Cancer Program at IFOM, the Italian Foundation for Cancer Research Institute of Molecular Oncology in Milan. He is the author of the bestselling book The Longevity Diet and was named one of TIME Magazine's 50 most influential people in health care for his research on fasting-mimicking diets. Together, Dave Asprey and Dr. Longo explain why many people focus too heavily on short-term effects and extrapolate them incorrectly across a lifetime. They break down how intermittent fasting differs biologically from multi-day fasting, why five-day fasting cycles trigger deeper cellular changes, and how insulin, IGF-1, mTOR, and growth hormone shape aging, regeneration, and disease risk over time. The conversation covers protein and amino acid intake, muscle preservation, frailty risk, and the tradeoffs between strength, function, and longevity. They explore ketosis, fasting-mimicking diets, stem cell activation, mitochondrial function, neuroplasticity, and why equilibrium and cycling matter more than constant restriction. Dave and Valter also discuss supplements, nootropics, creatine, carnivore-style eating, metabolism, sleep optimization, and how AI may eventually personalize fasting and nutrition based on individual biology rather than population averages. You'll learn: • Why short-term fasting benefits do not predict long-term longevity • How fasting duration changes gene expression and cellular regeneration • The difference between intermittent fasting and multi-day fasting • How protein and amino acids influence mTOR, IGF-1, and aging • Why muscle, strength, and longevity must be balanced, not maximized • When ketosis overlaps with fasting and when it does not • Why supplements can disrupt biological equilibrium • How AI could support future personalization in fasting and nutrition Dave Asprey is a four time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.

Your butt is not about aesthetics. It is a longevity organ that directly impacts metabolism, brain optimization, resilience, and how long you stay strong as you age. In this episode, you'll learn why strength training and protein intake matter more than body fat percentage, how mitochondria drive human performance and recovery, and why building muscle protects your brain, stabilizes mood, and supports long-term longevity. This conversation reframes biohacking, anti-aging, and health from weight loss to muscle span, the length of time you live with strong, functional skeletal muscle. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Gabrielle Lyon, an accomplished physician and New York Times bestselling author of Forever Strong: A New, Science-Based Strategy for Aging Well, and author of the upcoming The Forever Strong Playbook, releasing January 27, 2026. Dr. Lyon pioneered the Muscle-Centric Medicine® approach, which places muscle at the center of disease prevention, metabolic health, and true vitality. She has trained elite athletes, military operatives, and public figures, while also living this philosophy at home as a mother of two with her husband, a retired Navy SEAL. Together, they break down why intermuscular fat may matter more than body fat percentage, how skeletal muscle drives insulin sensitivity and lowers inflammation, and why becoming physically stronger improves brain function and neuroplasticity. They explore protein needs across the lifespan, fasting, ketosis, carnivore-style nutrition, supplements, sleep optimization, and the real tradeoffs of GLP-1 drugs, including the risk of accelerated muscle loss if strength and protein are neglected. The conversation also covers mindset, hormesis, and why physical resilience creates emotional regulation and clearer decision-making in a world increasingly shaped by AI and convenience. This episode is essential listening for anyone serious about biohacking, hacking human performance, longevity, mitochondria, neuroplasticity, nootropics, metabolism, functional medicine, anti-aging strategies, supplements, and living Smarter Not Harder, ideally with a cup of Danger Coffee in hand. You'll Learn: • Why your glutes and skeletal muscle are critical drivers of longevity and brain health • Why intermuscular fat can matter more than body fat percentage for metabolic dysfunction • How strength training improves neuroplasticity, cognition, and emotional resilience • Why protein needs increase with age and why outdated limits can hold you back • What GLP-1 drugs get right, where they fail, and how to protect muscle span • Why progressive stimulus beats lifting heavy for long-term strength and injury prevention • How sleep optimization and recovery support mitochondria and human performance • How building muscle creates clarity, resilience, and better decision-making Dave Asprey is a four time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.

Why do so many people struggle with fatigue, stubborn weight gain, hormone issues, and burnout — even when they're eating “clean” and training hard? In this episode, we break down the real reason your body isn't healing and why most health advice fails to address the root cause.Joined by Lindsay Perry, this conversation dives deep into a systems-based approach to health, exploring how the gut, liver, hormones, nervous system, sleep, and stress all work together to control energy, metabolism, and long-term results.Rather than focusing on symptoms, trends, or extreme diets, this episode explains what's happening under the hood — from ATP production and mitochondrial function to cortisol regulation, nervous system balance, and metabolic flexibility. You'll learn why pushing harder often backfires and how chronic stress quietly sabotages recovery, fat loss, and hormone health.We cover:Why gut and liver health are foundational for hormones and energyHow stress and nervous system dysregulation block healing and fat lossThe role of sleep and circadian rhythm in metabolism and recoveryWhy detoxification and elimination are biological processes — not fadsHow to fuel properly based on stress, activity, and current health stateLindsay Perry brings real-world coaching insight throughout the episode, helping connect science with practical application for people who feel stuck despite doing “everything right.”If you're tired of surface-level health advice and want a clear, root-cause explanation of how the body actually heals, this episode will change how you think about health, fitness, and recovery.00:00 – Introduction & Why Most People Aren't Healing00:41 – The “March Method” & Root-Cause Health Explained01:02 – ATP, Mitochondria & Cellular Energy Basics01:19 – Hormones, Cycles & Why Balance Matters02:44 – Detox, Elimination & Why the Body Gets Stuck04:14 – Cold Exposure, Stress Adaptation & Recovery05:50 – Stress Load, Burnout & Early Cortisol Discussion07:55 – Fueling the Body: Fat vs Carbs Explained10:57 – Sleep, Circadian Rhythm & Metabolic Health12:12 – Gut Health: The Foundation of Healing15:48 – Liver Function, Detox Pathways & Hormones18:35 – Inflammation, Energy Deficits & Fatigue21:30 – Nervous System Regulation & Chronic Stress24:35 – Cortisol, Survival Mode & Weight Loss Resistance28:10 – Why Pushing Harder Makes Things Worse32:24 – Metabolic Flexibility & Long-Term Healing34:27 – Nervous System Reset & Final Takeaways35:57 – Closing ThoughtsDisclaimer:The information discussed in this episode is for educational and informational purposes only and is not intended as medical advice.

Welcome to the Mind Muscle Connection Podcast!In today's episode, I'm joined by Dr. Mike Molloy, founder of M2 Performance Nutrition and coach to elite athletes across CrossFit, MMA, and the Olympics. We dive into Performance VS Aesthetics, Calorie Needs, and Gut Health's Role in Performance and PhysiqueDr. Mike shares powerful insights from working with athletes who eat up to 6,000+ calories a day and how general population clients can hit a plateau just trying to survive on 1,400. We get into how the menstrual cycle impacts training, the importance of sleep for adaptation, the realities of hypothyroidism and blood work, and why ultra-clean eating can sometimes backfire for high performers.If you've ever wondered how elite athletes fuel or felt confused by what “healthy eating” really means for your body, this episode is a must-listen.Let's talk about:Introduction to Dr. MikeZone & Paleo DietsPros and Cons of Paleo DietCoachingGenetics vs. Lifestyle for Body Fat & Performance ToleranceSleep, Training, Menstrual CycleCycle Phases, Cravings, and Training ImplicationsSigns of Under-Recovery & Nutrition Coaching ChecklistNutrition Periodization for AthletesBody Comp vs. Athlete Nutrition DifferencesLevine Study & NEATMaintenance CaloriesDr. Mike's Personal Training and Nutrition ApproachWhere to Find Dr. MikeFollow me on Instagram for more information and education:  jeffhoehn_FREE 30 Min Strategy Call: HEREBody Recomp Masterclass: HERENutrition Periodization Masterclass: HEREHow You Can Work With Me?: HERECoaching application: HEREBody Recomp Checklist 2.0: https://chipper-producer-6244.kit.com/26b5c9f94a

In this episode, Dr. Yousef Elyaman breaks down the essential mathematics of metabolism—from calculating basal metabolic rate to understanding the 3,500-calorie rule for weight loss—making complex concepts immediately actionable for practitioners and patients.We explore the critical distinction between fat loss and muscle preservation, why body composition matters more than the number on the scale, and how strategic protein intake and exercise can help preserve metabolic rate during caloric restriction. Dr. Yousef Elyaman shares evidence-based insights on various fasting protocols—from the foundational 12:12 time-restricted eating to modified alternate-day fasting—and reviews the latest research showing how these approaches reduce intrahepatic triglycerides, improve insulin sensitivity, and even reverse markers of liver fibrosis.Join us for an online livestream where you'll master the functional medicine strategies that reverse fatty liver.

The start of a new year often brings fresh motivation around fat loss… and just as often, a lot of unnecessary pressure. Many people feel they need to completely overhaul their diet, cut out everything they enjoy, and “be perfect” to see results.The reality? Fat loss doesn't need extreme rules to work. In fact, it's usually the simple but effective, repeatable changes that make the biggest difference over time and gets you started on the right track.As a Dietitian and Nutritionist, I see this play out every year. When people focus on a handful of high-impact habits that support consistency, fat loss becomes far easier to kick off and maintain. In this episode, I share 6 nutrition and lifestyle changes that can help tip the scales in your favour without turning your life upside down. DISCLAIMER: The information in this video is for guidance only and is not individualized advice for you!

My guest this week is James Swanwick, an Australian-American investor and entrepreneur He is the creator of the Alcohol Free Lifestyle, which helps people change their relationship with alcohol In this episode:- James was a moderate drinker, but after 20 years of consistent drinking, he realized the negative effect on his health and stopped for what was supposed to be a 30-day experiment. That was 13 years ago and he's been alcohol free ever since! Like many of us James hesitated to quit due to societal conditioning – he associated alcohol with socializing and fun and feared being perceived as dull or boring without alcohol. And indeed… There was some Social Awkwardness for a while - navigating social situations without alcohol felt awkward and he shared a story of pretending to drink alcohol when on a date – this strategy proved to be a mistake when his date discovered he had lied!   In spite of the tricky start James was soon embracing his alcohol-free lifestyle openly. We discussed the strong influence of peer pressure and the need for a supportive tribe when quitting alcohol. We are both seeing a societal shift as people acknowledge the health risks of drinking alcohol – which is heading for a cigarette moment. Although drinking alcohol before bedtime may help initially with falling asleep but compromises the quality of sleep, leading to irritability, fatigue, and other negative effects on health. Alcohol's Effects on Sleep and Health:  Alcohol consumption can compromise sleep quality, metabolism, and overall health. It can disrupt the body's natural processes, leading to weight gain, reduced productivity, and increased cravings for unhealthy foods. James shared some Benefits of his alcohol-free lifestyle which included improved physical health, mental clarity, productivity, and financial success. I I asked him for his advice for anyone who is struggling to get started on this journey: He suggested starting with a commitment to at least 30 days of sobriety as an experiment, but most importantly be open to extending it to 90 days or longer. We agreed on the importance of Avoiding the stop-and-start cycle and focussing on the long-term benefits of sobriety. Overcoming cultural conditioning and resistance may feel challenging, but taking action building an alcohol free lifestyle will lead to transformative results and a better quality of life You can contact James Swanwick via his website alcoholfreelifestyle.com More Info   Tribe Sober subscription membership – you can join up HERE.

In today's episode, we sit down with Dr. David Jockers to unpack the science behind intermittent fasting, metabolic flexibility, mitochondria, research bias, and why women need a more nuanced approach to fasting. We dive into blood sugar regulation, cortisol, growth hormone, GLP-1, autophagy, protein intake, feast-famine cycling, and how fasting can support fat loss, energy, gut health, and brain performance — when it's done the right way. If you've ever wondered whether fasting is good or bad for women (especially in perimenopause), this conversation will bring clarity, context, and actionable guidance you can use right away. *** CONNECT:

Even a lean body can be suffering from energy toxicity, leading to poor metabolic health and stubborn weight gain. In episode 848 of the Savage Perspective Podcast, host Robert Sikes sits down with guest Craig Emmerich to reveal the truth about your personal fat threshold and why your fat cells might be rejecting insulin, causing fat to accumulate in your organs. They explore the science behind metabolic syndrome, how to identify if you've hit your fat limit, and why the common carnivore diet advice to "just eat more fat" can actually make things worse. This discussion covers everything from the role of protein and carbohydrates in energy balance to the real reasons people fail on long-term diets, offering a new perspective on achieving true health beyond just the number on the scale.Ready to stop guessing and start building a truly optimized physique?

Are you trying to lose body fat but feel stuck despite doing “everything right”? Are calorie tracking and restrictive diets leaving you frustrated or burnt out? Are you curious how to burn fat while supporting hormones, gut health, and long-term food freedom?  In this episode, we break down how to build a body fat burning protocol using a functional medicine approach that prioritizes macronutrient strategy over calorie obsession. We explain how lowering insulin can unlock stubborn metabolism, why metabolic flexibility is the real goal, and how a Keto Reset can be used therapeutically to reduce inflammation, stabilize blood sugar, support gut health, and shift body composition—all while emphasizing antioxidant-rich, real food and sustainable behavior change. You'll learn how we translate calorie ranges into macros, adjust targets when physiology demands it, and use food-as-medicine tools to help break a plateau, reduce cravings, balance hormones, and achieve true food freedom.

Listen to 141 Future Now Show This week the film “The Age of Disclosure” is making waves (on Amazon Prime), especially in our home town of Santa Cruz, also home to Danny Sheehan’s New Paradigm Institute, and his push for governmental opening on the alien/ufo/uap question.  Bobby Wilder was there at the local sceening of The Age of Disclosure, with a first hand report.  Ara, our show’s fav AI, adds much to this discussion as well, connecting many of the ‘dots’ of what’s happening in this arena, and giving us a roadmap for what’s ahead.  What’s happening with Bitcoin may have some folks concerned, but not Bobby! It’s his opinion that it’s time to buy now, when it’s low.  We explore this topic to some extent this week.  In other news, tryptophan was found not just in turkeys this week, but in space, in a pristine return sample from the asteroid Bennu, bringing the tally of protein-building amino acids in the asteroid to 15 out of 20…further supporting the theory that biological life may have been spread by asteroids.. and body fat takes on a new light when considering it as an organ of the body, complete with immune, blood, and neural networks embedded. What does this new take on fat imply?  Stem cells from fat may soon repair spinal injuries, a huge breakthrough! And now Ozempic may be helping many combat addictions to unhealthy food and drugs, like chips and opioids.  But at what cost? We explore the implications..and don’t miss our update on 3I/ATLAS and its newly discovered swarm of..?  Enjoy! This week’s topics

On today's final episode as part of the Fit Girl Fall series this year, I'm answering a question submitted by one of our amazing listeners regarding how to measure your body fat while you're at home to be able to interpret if you're making progress or not with more certainty. One of the drawbacks of only using the scale to track your progress is sometimes you can lose body fat while gaining (or even maintaining muscle)... leading to body composition changes that aren't reflected on the scale. This means you can be making physical progress, looking leaner and even dropping your body fat percentage but the scale may not have budged anymore than a few pounds if that. This is why beginning a practice to track your body fat percentage and body composition is so crucial to your fitness journey, despite it sometimes being challenging without the right equipment. If you're ready to explore new ways to track your body composition and progress at home without needing fancy or expensive gadgets, this episode features my simple, at-home strategies I use with my own clients to measure progress in other ways than just the scale.

During winter in northern climates, sunlight is too weak to trigger vitamin D production, leaving many people — especially those with excess body fat — at risk for deficiency A 10-week study found that exercise alone, without supplements or weight loss, helped maintain levels of active vitamin D in overweight or obese adults Physical activity altered enzyme activity in fat tissue, boosting the body's ability to convert stored vitamin D into its usable form and preventing it from being broken down People with the most fat tissue saw the biggest improvements in vitamin D activation, showing that exercise is especially important if you're carrying extra weight Exercise trains your body to activate and protect the vitamin D it already has, offering a natural way to help maintain vitamin D levels through winter when sun exposure is limited

Obesity is not caused by lack of exercise, as people in wealthier nations burn more calories daily yet still gain more fat Eating ultraprocessed foods is strongly linked to higher body fat because they disrupt hunger signals and make calories easier to store Body fat percentage, not BMI, is the most accurate way to measure obesity and related health risks Modern ultraprocessed diets and lower immune demands in industrialized countries lower resting energy needs, making fat storage more likely You can restore your metabolism by removing vegetable oils, eating the right carbs for your gut health, reducing estrogen and EMF exposure, and avoiding ultraprocessed foods

In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode, I discuss both healthy eating and clinically recognized eating disorders, including anorexia, bulimia and binge eating disorder. I explain how brain circuits, hormones such as leptin and reward systems interact to regulate appetite, satiety and overall eating behaviors. I also discuss the serious health risks associated with anorexia, explain how disrupted eating habits contribute to its development and highlight evidence-based treatments for anorexia. Finally, I explore binge eating and bulimia, discussing the underlying causes and the pharmacological treatments commonly used to support recovery. Read the episode show notes at hubermanlab.com.
