In this episode, Dr. Patrick Porter, Ashok Gupta, and Jack Savage explore with Tara how brain retraining, better sleep, targeted tech like BrainTap, and gentler stimulants with ingredients such as L‑theanine and medicinal mushrooms can calm an overstimulated nervous system and improve focus. Dr. Patrick K. Porter, PhD, is an award-winning author/speaker and the founder of BrainTap®, the leader in technology-enhanced meditation. Dr. Porter pioneered the use of brainwave entrainment to improve clarity, sleep & energy, and remains at the forefront of scientific research. He founded BrainTap with the goal of making this technology accessible to everyone. BrainTap offers over 1800 original audio sessions in 12 languages and serves a worldwide user base with its mobile app and headset.  Ashok Gupta is the mind behind The Gupta Program and a leading expert in the field of neuroimmune conditioned syndromes (NICS). Ashok is an internationally renowned Speaker, Filmmaker & Health Practitioner who has dedicated his life to supporting people through chronic illness, and achieving their potential. As someone who's always had trouble focusing, Jack Savage was prescribed stimulants at the age of 5 until high blood pressure gave cause for serious concern. He quit cold turkey and started drinking lots of coffee. After 1-2 hours of ineffective energy, he'd crash or if he drank too much, he'd feel jittery and anxious. That's when he started researching biohacking, nutrition and functional mushrooms. Jack found that basically all mushrooms are magical, especially when combined with nootropics. This led him to the ingredients in Everyday Dose, which have allowed him to regain control of his life for the first time.

When Dr. Ted Arkfeld started as a team chiropractor in the early 2000s, the standard sideline concussion test was a whiff of smelling salts and a question: "Feel okay? Get back in." Twenty-plus years later, he's built one of the most rigorous neurological assessments in the field, and is one of the only chiropractors in the country presenting concussion research alongside the world's foremost authorities. In this episode, he walks us through what changed, what's still broken, and a better way to treat concussions from the nervous system up. We cover: Why you cannot have a concussion without a cervical spine injury and why mainstream concussion medicine has been late to catch on The Neuro Sports Performance Evaluation that combines autonomic testing, sensorimotor function, and Neubie mapping The 3x increase in lower-extremity injury risk after a concussion and how to prevent it Why even gentle treatment can metabolically overwhelm a concussed brain and how a $20 pulse oximeter solves it The layered treatment protocol Dr. Arkfeld uses: Cox flexion-distraction, Master Reset, Normatec, BrainTap, and progressive neuro rehab If you treat athletes – or you're the parent of one – this conversation will change how you think about concussion management.

Angela and special guest Dr Tommy Wood explore the surprising, evidence-backed link between leg power and brain longevity. They discuss how relative leg strength acts as a primary predictor of cognitive processing speed in older adults, driven by the release of exerkines like IGF-1 which protect the brain's white matter.  They also reveal that you don't need to be an elite athlete to reap these benefits; simply reaching the top 25% of your demographic can significantly slash your risk of dementia and cognitive decline. WHAT YOU WILL LEARN Relative leg power (strength in proportion to body size) is a critical predictor of how quickly the brain processes information as we age. Strength training triggers the release of hormones like IGF-1, which are essential for maintaining the structure and insulation of the brain's white matter, You don't need infinite strength to protect your brain; reaching the top 25% to 33% of your demographic provides the most significant protection against mortality and dementia. Achieving these health benefits is possible with a modest commitment, such as two 45-minute sessions per week focusing on full-body resistance training.

Angela talks to Dr Sarah Berry about the controversial topic of seed oils and their impact on inflammation and cardiovascular health.  Dr Berry, who has gained notoriety for her views on seed oils, clarifies the role of saturated fats in increasing LDL cholesterol and cardiovascular risk, emphasising the importance of the food source from which these fats are derived. She also highlights the nuanced differences between unfermented and fermented dairy products, explaining how the fermentation process alters the health effects of saturated fat WHAT YOU WILL LEARN Saturated fat is known to increase LDL cholesterol and is associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular disease.  The source of saturated fat matters, as different food matrices can influence health outcomes. Unfermented dairy products, like butter, are linked to increased cholesterol and cardiovascular risk Fermented dairy products, such as yogurt and cheese, do not have the same negative effects despite containing saturated fat. There is significant individual variability in how people respond to changes in saturated fat intake.  Some individuals may experience substantial reductions in LDL cholesterol when reducing saturated fat and increasing polyunsaturated fat, while others may see little to no effect.

Longevity expert Dr. Valter Longo dives deep into the science behind the Fasting Mimicking Diet and why it holds a significant edge over traditional water-only fasting.  Dr. Longo explains how the FMD is engineered to trigger cellular cleanup while providing essential nutrients that protect muscle mass and maintain gut integrity—avoiding the leaky gut risks seen in water-only trials WHAT YOU WILL LEARN Safety and Compliance: Unlike water-only fasting, which can cause hypotension and hypoglycaemia, the FMD is designed to be safer and much easier for the average person to complete. Gut Health Protection: Emerging research suggests that water-only fasting can actually increase leaky gut symptoms in mice Muscle Maintenance: The FMD utilises specific carbon sources like glycerol to support glucose production, which prevents the body from breaking down muscle tissue for energy during the fast.

Angela and special guest Dr. Darshan Shah, look at the polarising world of cardiovascular health, specifically demystifying the role of LDL cholesterol.  They challenge the traditional one-size-fits-all approach to statins, arguing that heart health must be viewed through the lens of individual biology—where factors like inflammation, genetic risk, and lifestyle can make the same LDL level a non-issue for one person and a crisis for another WHAT YOU WILL LEARN LDL is Not Always the Enemy: A high LDL reading alone doesn't guarantee heart disease; its impact depends on individual context The Power of ApoB and Lp(a): Traditional cholesterol panels are often insufficient; more modern biomarkers like ApoB(a superior risk marker) and Lp(a) (a genetic factor) provide a much clearer picture of cardiovascular risk. AI in Diagnostics: The Clearly scan uses AI to analyse CT angiograms, allowing doctors to see the actual buildup of both calcified and soft plaque in the coronary arteries rather than just guessing based on blood work. Precision Over Dogma: Because cardiovascular health is an "N-of-1" situation, interventions like statins or PCSK9 inhibitors should be based on actual arterial health TIMESTAMPS: 01:21 The LDL Controversy: An explanation of why cholesterol remains a polarizing topic and why it must be treated as an individual biology issue. 02:37 The Tale of Two Patients: A comparison of a healthy gym-goer with high LDL/zero plaque versus a high-stress professional with lower LDL/significant plaque. 04:13 Modern Biomarkers: A breakdown of the specific tests to ask for, including ApoB, HS-CRP, and the Clearly cardiovascular scan.

If you're entering perimenopause and suddenly noticing more abdominal fat, higher cholesterol, poorer sleep or increased anxiety, you're not imagining it. In this episode, I'm joined by Professor Sarah Berry to unpack what actually changes in women's cardiometabolic health during the menopause transition We explore why premenopausal women are often metabolically protected compared to men, what shifts during perimenopause, and how declining estrogen impacts fat distribution, blood glucose control, inflammation and cholesterol. WHAT YOU WILL LEARN • Why cardiometabolic health often worsens during perimenopause • When visceral fat redistribution typically begins • The role of estrogen in fat storage, cholesterol and inflammation • Whether hormone therapy protects against abdominal fat gain • How glucose dips can drive an extra 300+ calories per day • What ApoB really means and why it matters beyond LDL • The truth about seed oils, saturated fat and cardiovascular risk • Why soy isoflavones work for some women but not others • How replacing typical snacks with almonds predicted a 30% drop in cardiovascular risk TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 Intro: Why Cardiometabolic Risk Increases During Perimenopause 05:01 Does Hormone Therapy Protect Against Visceral Fat & Cholesterol Changes? 13:42 How to Improve Your Gut Microbiome through Diet 19:01 Why Belly Fat Increases in Perimenopause (Estrogen, Hunger & Blood Sugar) 27:39 Saturated Fat Explained: Butter vs Yogurt & The Food Matrix 45:31 Eating Speed, Late-Night Meals & Metabolic Health in Midlife VALUABLE RESOURCES • Take the BioSyncing Quiz to help you understand what's actually happening in your body — and how to fix it.

Send a textIn this episode, Dr. Porter breaks down the neuroscience behind why your brain is not built for modern life — and what to do about it. From the glymphatic system that washes your brain during sleep, to the voltage drop that leads to dementia, to the 2 PM cortisol trough that kills your afternoon — this conversation will change how you think about your brain forever.​In this conversation, you'll learn:◼️ Why your brain shrinks ¾ inch overnight◼️ How drinking coffee before 10 AM shuts down your dopamine and cortisol production◼️ The "glymphatic system" discovery: how deep sleep literally washes your brain clean◼️ Brain voltage explained: 18.1V at birth → below 7V = dementia → below 4V = Alzheimer's◼️ The Google/Microsoft study where a 20-min BrainTap session at 2 PM boosted output by 26%◼️ Why "grind culture" is neuroscience backwards — and what high performers actually do◼️ His dad's alcoholism origin story and how it led to the Silva Method breakthrough◼️ BDNF: the "Miracle-Gro for the brain" you trigger 10 minutes after exercise◼️ MIT's discovery that your body absorbs light codes from distant star systems — run through DNA◼️ The heart transplant patient who started craving KFC — and what it proves about cellular memory◼️ Alarm clocks, melatonin timing, and the liver-cleaning window between 11 PM–12 AM◼️ Why stressed mice outlived comfortable ones (and what that means for your daily habits)◼️ The "pause, break, breathe" technique that Einstein and top performers use before answering​

If you are waking at 2:00 AM wide awake, mind racing and calculating how little sleep you have left, this episode is for you. In this episode, I unpack what is really driving the 2:00 AM wake up in women over 35. This is rarely a sleep hygiene problem. And it is not that you are bad at switching off. In most cases, it is a hormonal and metabolic cascade showing up as a sleep issue. We explore why alcohol fragments the second half of sleep, even if it helps you fall asleep, how declining progesterone affects GABA and your ability to buffer stress overnight, and why under fuelling at dinner can trigger a 2:00 AM cortisol spike through blood sugar dips. I also share the exact dinner tweak and evening wind down stack I use personally and with clients, plus the CAP formula to stop your brain rehearsing tomorrow at 2:00 AM. This is a practical, physiology first episode for high performing women who are tired of being told to just relax and want to address the real root cause. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: • Why do you wake up at 2:00 AM? • Does alcohol disrupt sleep in the second half of the night? • Can low progesterone affect sleep quality? • Can low blood sugar wake you up at night? • Should you eat carbohydrates at dinner for better sleep? • Do glycine, magnesium or L theanine improve sleep? • Does morning sunlight improve sleep at night? • How do you stop overthinking at 2:00 AM? • What is the CAP method and how does it reduce cognitive load? • What should you do if you wake in the night?

Angela talks to Professor Stuart Philips, who challenges the long-standing "Anabolic Window" myth, revealing that muscle sensitivity to protein actually lasts up to 48 hours post-exercise rather than a mere 30-minute window.  The conversation cuts through the noise of modern protein obsession, establishing that while the RDA is a baseline, the true sweet spot for muscle synthesis lies between 1.2g and 1.6g per kilogram of body weight. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: The protein "sweet spot": While the baseline requirement is 0.8g/kg, optimal benefits for muscle maintenance and growth occur between 1.2g and 1.6g per kilogram. The myth of the 30-minute window: The "Anabolic Window" is much larger than previously thought; muscles remain sensitive to protein for up to 48 hours after a workout. Dosage limits: For most people, including perimenopausal and postmenopausal women, 30g to 40g of protein per meal is the effective limit for stimulating new muscle growth. Carbohydrates are essential: Despite modern "carb-phobia," carbohydrates are the primary drivers of high-intensity performance TIMESTAMPS [01:50] The confusion between calculating protein [03:52] The "Baking the Cake" analogy [05:54] Debunking the idea that you can only absorb 20g of protein at a time.

Angela talks to Ari Whitten, the founder of The Energy Blueprint and an expert in mitochondrial health about his comprehensive approach to overcoming fatigue and optimising energy levels by addressing the cellular engines of the body—the mitochondria.  Ari explains how modern lifestyle factors, such as poor light exposure, chronic stress, and nutritional deficiencies, signal the mitochondria to enter a defence mode rather than an energy-producing mode WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: The Cell Danger Response (CDR): Mitochondria have a dual role; they are not just energy producers but also environmental sensors that shift into a defensive state when they perceive threats Circadian Rhythm and Light: Proper exposure to natural light in the morning and minimising artificial blue light at night is critical for regulating the mitochondrial clock and ensuring deep, restorative sleep. Hormetic Stress: Introducing controlled stressors—such as high-intensity exercise, cold exposure, or heat—can actually strengthen mitochondria and increase their capacity to produce energy The Importance of Nutrient Density: Specific nutrients, including CoQ10, magnesium, and polyphenols, are essential "fuel" for the electron transport chain TIMESTAMPS [00:04:15] The "Energy Gap" [00:18:30] Mitochondria as Sensors [00:32:45] The Power of Red Light Therapy [00:52:10] Building Metabolic Flexibility VALUABLE RESOURCES ⁠Join The High Performance Health Community⁠ ⁠Click here⁠ for discounts on all the products I personally use and recommend A BIG thank you to our sponsors who make the show possible The Ultimate Guide to Red Light Therapy  Find out your biological age and how your daily habits are influencing it with DNA, bloodwork and microbiome testing with a Stride One membership - visit https://www.getstride.com/angela/ for 10% off.

What if the missing piece in your menopause journey isn't hormones, but your nervous system? I'm Dr. Betty Murray, and in this episode, I sit down with Dr. Patrick Porter, founder and inventor of of BrainTap technology, a revolutionary light, sound, and vibration system that uses brain wave entrainment to flip the switch on sympathetic syndrome (chronic fight-or-flight), restore sleep, build stress resilience, and rewire neural pathways in just 20-30 minutes a day. Dr. Porter has been pioneering neuroplasticity technology since 1986, starting with the first personal light and sound machine for pain clinics.  You'll Discover: ●    Why our ancient brains weren't designed for modern life ●    Why modern brains operate on only one gear (stress, frustration, anxiety) when we need multiple gears like a car, and how BrainTap uses light (810-850 nanometer), sound (beat frequencies), and vibration to regulate five primary brain wave networks (alpha, beta, theta, delta, gamma) like switching Wi-Fi networks ●    The four T's destroying biological systems: Thoughts, Traumas, Toxins, and Technology (the new fourth T) ●    How brain voltage drops from 18.1 volts at birth to 10.1 volts by age 16-17, creating resistance where life becomes an energy equation that starts in brain, moves down spine, out to limbs ●    Why neural pruning accelerates in menopause due to estrogen loss affecting mitochondria and the cannabinoid system. ●    Why affirmations fail: brain doesn't respond to false statements of fact ●    Why drinking coffee first thing in morning is worst thing for biological system} ●    The three critical BrainTap times: morning, afternoon, sleep preparation This episode is for women struggling with sleep, chronic stress, brain fog, or feeling stuck in fight-or-flight mode despite doing "all the right things" with diet and hormones. If you want to understand how 20-30 minutes a day of brain wave entrainment can rewire neural pathways and restore nervous system balance, this conversation will change how you think about healing.

Angela examines the intricacies of training for muscle strength, hypertrophy, and endurance, referencing a key paper by Brad Schoenfeld that outlines effective rep ranges for different fitness goals.  She discusses the importance of neuromuscular adaptation for beginners and suggest starting with bodyweight exercises before progressing to kettlebells and heavier weights, as well as the significance of tailored training programs, especially for women undergoing menopause, advocating for high-intensity interval training and heavier lifting. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: Training Ranges: Hypertrophy is typically achieved with 8 to 12 reps, strength with 1 to 5 reps, and endurance with 15 or more reps. It's important to follow a structured program to maximise results. Neuromuscular Adaptation: Beginners will experience significant improvements through neuromuscular adaptation, which involves learning proper movement patterns. Starting with bodyweight exercises like squats and pushups is effective. Progression: As individuals advance, they should gradually incorporate resistance training, starting with bodyweight exercises, then moving to bands, and eventually to weights like kettlebells for functional movements. Training for Life: Emphasis should be placed on training that prepares individuals for everyday activities, such as lifting children or carrying luggage, rather than just focusing on traditional weightlifting.

Angela addresses the common misconception that a slowed metabolism is the primary cause of weight gain during midlife, particularly for women experiencing menopause. Instead, the focus is on the impact of visceral fat and insulin exposure, which can lead to stubborn belly fat.  Angela episode outlines five actionable levers to combat these issues, including increasing daily movement, prioritising resistance training, strategically using high-intensity interval training (HIIT), choosing fibrous whole food carbohydrates, and improving sleep and stress resilience WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: Insulin Exposure: Elevated insulin levels throughout the day hinder the body's ability to mobilise stored fat. Improving insulin sensitivity is crucial for effective fat loss, particularly around the abdomen. Five Effective Levers: To combat midlife belly fat, focus on five key strategies: Break up long periods of sitting and increase daily movement. Prioritise resistance training three times a week. Use high-intensity interval training (HIIT) strategically. Choose fibrous whole food carbohydrates instead of cutting carbs entirely. Improve sleep quality and manage stress to enhance metabolic health. Personalised Approach: The most effective strategy for reducing belly fat varies for each individual. Factors such as sleep disruption, stress load, glucose swings, and training intensity should be considered TIMESTAMPS [00:01:35] Visceral fat and health risks. [00:04:24] Break up sitting and movement. [00:09:20] Sleep disruption and stress load.

Angela takes a look at the essentials of daily detoxification with executive wellness coach and Ideal Day podcast host, Adam Parker.  Moving beyond the hype of fad cleanses, Adam and Angela explore how our bodies naturally process modern environmental toxins, from heavy metals to microplastics, and why proactive support is vital in 2026.  From the controversial benefits of coffee enemas to the science-backed power of sauna protocols, mineral replenishment, and binders, this conversation provides a roadmap for boosting metabolic flexibility, clearing brain fog, and reclaiming your cellular energy. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: Detox is a Continuous Process: The body is always detoxing through breath, sweat, and elimination; however, the modern toxic load often exceeds our natural capacity The Bottom-Up Protocol: Effective detoxification should follow a specific sequence starting at the colon (the bottom of the drainage funnel) and moving up to the liver, gallbladder, lymph, and finally the cells The Role of Lipophilic Toxins: Many modern man-made chemicals are fat-soluble (lipophilic) and store themselves in fat tissue Minerals as the "Spark Plugs": Heavy metals often compete with essential minerals for cell receptors. Replenishing with fulvic and humic minerals or unrefined sea salt is a foundational daily habit to push out heavy metals and fuel metabolic pathways. TIMESTAMPS [01:41] — Defining Detox: Adam explains why the body needs extra support in today's environment compared to a decade ago. [05:25] — Fat Tissue & Toxin Storage: A discussion on why toxins hide in body fat and the symptoms that occur when they are mobilised. [08:52] — The Supplement Strategy: Deep dive into magnesium for the colon and milk thistle/dandelion for stagnant bile flow in the liver. [11:51] — The Coffee Enema Debate: Adam breaks down the 100-year history and the hepatic portal vein mechanism behind this controversial practice. [17:09] — Maximum Sauna Benefits: How to use binders, hydration, and "sweat-wiping" techniques to optimise heat-based detoxification.

This episode explores the scientific nuances of workout timing, specifically tailored to women's health and physiology. The conversation delves into how circadian rhythms, cortisol levels, and appetite hormones like ghrelin influence the body's response to exercise at different times of the day.  We discuss findings from various training studies, highlighting that while morning workouts are particularly effective for reducing abdominal fat and visceral adiposity in women, afternoon sessions may offer superior strength and powergains due to enhanced neuromuscular recruitment WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: Training in the morning, regardless of the exercise type (high-intensity or resistance), is notably effective for reducing abdominal fat Women tend to see greater strength gains and improved neuromuscular fibre recruitment when training in the afternoon or evening. The body's response to morning exercise is partly driven by a higher baseline of activated ghrelin While biology suggests optimal times for specific goals, consistency and sticking to a routine that fits one's lifestyle are ultimately the most important factors for long-term success. TIMESTAMPS 0:00 – Discussion on how morning workouts specifically target abdominal fat reduction in women. 0:25 – Explanation of why women generally experience greater strength and power in the afternoon. 0:44 – Overview of studies showing morning exercise reduces visceral fat in women, but not in men. 1:18 – Analysis of how the hunger hormone ghrelin triggers fat burning during early morning sessions. 1:43 – Insight into how resistance training signals the liver to use fatty acids for metabolism rather than storage. 2:38 – A concluding look at why personal consistency often outweighs biological "perfection" in a routine.

Today I'm joined by neuroscientist and mitochondrial health expert Siobhan Mitchell to cut through the noise around mitochondria, inflammation, NAD, and what actually matters for energy, recovery, and brain health in midlife We unpack why mitochondria are not just “battery packs”, they are a master regulator of oxidative stress, immune signalling, and cellular aging. Siobhan explains the difference between hormetic stress that upgrades your system (like training) versus chronic stress that drains it WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: • What mitochondria actually do, beyond “energy production”  • Mitophagy and mitochondrial biogenesis, and why both decline with age  • The difference between hormetic stress (exercise) and chronic stress (modern life)  • Why mitochondrial dysfunction can drive inflammation and immune overactivation  • How brain energy demand and oestrogen loss intersect in menopause symptoms  • CD38, inflammation, and why staying lean matters for NAD preservation  • Why NAD precursors can be wasted, and what supports conversion inside the cell  • The practical take on timing, training, and recovery support TIMESTAMPS 00:01 Mitochondria, ATP, and the oxidative stress trade-off  04:14 Mitophagy, mitochondrial biogenesis, and aging  16:13 Mitochondria as immune regulators, inflammation and cytokines  23:09 Brain energy, menopause, oestrogen, and cognitive decline mechanisms  29:33 NAD explained, CD38, and why NAD drops with age  48:56 NAD, GLUT4, insulin sensitivity, and perimenopause metabolism  53:19 Where to learn more, discount code, and closing VALUABLE RESOURCES ⁠Join The High Performance Health Community⁠ ⁠Click here⁠ for discounts on all the products I personally use and recommend A BIG thank you to our sponsors who make the show possible Get 10% off MitoQ NAD+ - www.mitoq.com with code ANGELA Get 35% off Timeline Mitopure by visiting this link while the offer lasts - https://www.timeline.com/promotions/angela35 Upgrade your cellular health - get 20% off Beam Minerals at http://beamminerals.com/ANGELA & use code ANGELA at checkout ABOUT THE GUEST Dr Siobhan Mitchell - Chief Scientific Officer - MitoQ Siobhan is the Chief Scientific Officer at MitoQ.

Most women think brain fog in perimenopause is inevitable. It isn't. In this episode, I explain what's really going on: your brain isn't broken, it's running on empty; and that's a solvable biology problem, not a willpower problem. I break down what happens as estrogen and progesterone fluctuate, how that impacts brain energy, and why symptoms like forgetfulness, poor focus, and “slow-motion thinking” can show up even when you're doing everything right. Then I share four science-backed strategies to rebuild a sharper, more resilient brain—covering nutrition, training for cognitive performance, regulating your mental “gears,” and a practical supplement toolkit to amplify the foundations WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: How blood sugar crashes sabotage cognition (and the breakfast fix) Why protein & healthy fats matter for focus in perimenopause The role of omega-3s (EPA/DHA) in neuroinflammation and clarity Why higher-intensity exercise can improve focus via lactate → BDNF How to use training strategically before deep work or high-stakes meetings The 3 Gears framework for focus, creativity, and stress regulation Why micro-breaks between meetings improve engagement and reduce stress buildup The supplement stack discussed (omega-3s, magnesium forms, ubiquinol/CoQ10, B vitamins) How to start with one change and build momentum without overwhelm TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Brain Fog in Perimenopause: What's Really Going On 02:37 Strategy 1: High-Quality Nutrition 05:25 Strategy 2: Exercise for Focus (Lactate, BDNF & Brain Energy) 08:59 Strategy 3: 3 Gears Framework for Focus & Stress 13:05 Strategy 4: The Supplement Toolkit (What Actually Helps) 17:28 How to Reclaim Your Focus & Energy VALUABLE RESOURCES ⁠Join The High Performance Health Community⁠ ⁠Click here⁠ for discounts on all the products I personally use and recommend • Longevity Supplement Masterclass – https://academy.angelafosterperformance.com/longevity-masterclass-27 • Omega-3 Episode featuring Dr. Bill Harris – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J42kJPyHPoA A BIG thank you to our sponsors who make the show possible Get 10% off MitoQ NAD+ - www.mitoq.com with code ANGELA Get 35% off Timeline Mitopure by visiting this link while the offer lasts - https://www.timeline.com/promotions/angela35 ABOUT THE HOST Angela Foster is an award winning Nutritionist, Health & Performance Coach, Speaker and Host of the High Performance Health podcast.

Join Angela and Simon Alexander Ong, a life and business coach and author of the book Energize, for a discussion on how to transform your life by managing your energy rather than your time, focussing on the power of perception and mindset in achieving an "extraordinary life".  Simon shares his personal journey from the financial sector during the 2008 crisis to becoming a coach, illustrating how obstacles can be reframed as opportunities. They also look at practical strategies for goal setting, maintaining consistency over intensity, and building sustainable systems for long-term success in both personal and professional spheres. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Energy Management Over Time Management: True productivity and the ability to "bend reality" come from managing your energetic state and perception rather than just managing your calendar. Consistency Trumps Intensity: Success is rarely a straight line; it is more like a maze where long-term consistency in habits and systems is more effective than short-term bursts of intense effort. The Power of Pronoia: Reframing your perspective from paranoia (the world is out to get you) to "pronoia" (the universe is conspiring in your favour) significantly changes how you respond to challenges and opportunities. Value and Service as Business Foundations: In business, shift the focus from selling to providing value and service; Simon suggests that money is simply an "echo of value". TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: [0:56] The career journey [2:50] “The messy middle" of any journey and why it's crucial to fall in love with the process [7:46] The difference between goal-setting (like training for a marathon) and building systems [13:48] “Daily non-negotiables," including physical exercise, reading across multiple formats, journaling for mental clarity, and using voice notes VALUABLE RESOURCES ⁠Join The High Performance Health Community⁠ ⁠Click here⁠ for discounts on all the products I personally use and recommend A BIG thank you to our sponsors who make the show possible Try Beam Minerals now at beamminerals.com/angela using code ANGELA for 20% off Take the BioSyncing Quiz: https://angelafoster.me/quiz ABOUT THE HOST Angela Foster is an award winning Nutritionist, Health & Performance Coach, Speaker and Host of the High Performance Health podcast.

Join Angela and Dr William Li for a look at the complex world of heart health and hormonal shifts, in which they tackle the often-confusing link between menopause and rising cholesterol levels, debunking common myths and providing clarity on the real risks of high LDL.  Dr. Li shares his expert insights on the nuances of heart disease prevention, the importance of blood sugar balance, and how a holistic, evidence-based approach can help you navigate these sudden health changes with confidence and balance. KEY TAKEAWAYS: High LDL cholesterol is linked to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease because it can build up as plaque in the arteries and impede blood flow. Total cholesterol levels are no longer the primary indicator of heart disease risk; instead, doctors focus on the ratio of "good" HDL to "bad" LDL cholesterol. While some people have genetic predispositions to extremely high cholesterol, modern medicine emphasises a more nuanced understanding of different cholesterol components. Maintaining blood sugar balance is crucial, but health influencers often exaggerate the dangers of minor "spikes" and "crashes" that are actually normal bodily functions. TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: 0:45 How LDL cholesterol sticks to artery walls like "Velcro," 1:42 How medical understanding has evolved from tracking total cholesterol to focusing on HDL/LDL ratios. 3:07 The influence of health influencers on public anxiety regarding blood sugar and cholesterol levels. 4:03 Importance of "homeostasis" and how the body naturally strives for balance in its systems.

Angela is joined by Dr Will B to examine the critical relationship between meal timing, gut health, and inflammation.  They discuss how eating close to bedtime can negatively impact heart rate variability and create an inflammatory state in the body, particularly affecting the gut microbiome. They also look at the importance of allowing the gut to enter a recovery mode during the night and emphasise the benefits of earlier meal times KEY TAKEAWAYS: Meal Timing and Inflammation: Eating close to bedtime can lead to increased inflammation, as the body's inflammatory response peaks about six hours after a meal Importance of Fasting: Allowing the gut a fasting period of about 12 hours overnight can help recalibrate the gut microbiome, promoting a healthier gut environment and supporting overall health. Four Nutritional Pillars: To support a healthy microbiome and reduce inflammation, focus on four key nutrients: fibre, polyphenols, healthy fats, and fermented foods Dietary Patterns: While various dietary patterns (like vegan, carnivore, or keto) are often debated, the focus should be on ensuring adequate intake of the four nutritional pillars rather than adhering strictly to a specific diet TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: [00:02:21] Nighttime gut microbiome recovery. [00:04:36] Inflammation and health risks. [00:08:03] Mediterranean diet and health.

Angela is joined by Sarah Rusbatch, to discuss the hidden health risks of alcohol, particularly for women in midlife. Sarah reveals the physiological reasons why women metabolise alcohol differently than men, leading to increased health risks, and shares the alarming statistic that four out of five women are unaware of the link between alcohol and breast cancer.  Together they focus on the three core pillars for successful behaviour change: focusing on what you gain, replacing the habit with a positive alternative, and embracing the power of small experiments KEY TAKEAWAYS: The Hidden Risks for Women: Women metabolise alcohol less efficiently than men due to lower levels of the alcohol dehydrogenase enzyme, making them more susceptible to alcohol's negative effects Alcohol's Link to Cancer: One in five breast cancer deaths are linked to alcohol, and the risk increases dose-dependently. Four out of five women are unaware of this direct connection. The Power of Positive Substitution: Successful behaviour change requires moving the focus from the deprivation (loss aversion) to the gains (e.g., better sleep, more energy, better skin) and replacing the drinking habit with an effective, positive alternative. Addressing the Root Cause: For many, alcohol is a "solution to the problem" of boredom, stress, or escape. Lasting change requires looking at what alcohol is masking and making fundamental changes to your life TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: 0:01:25: One glass of alcohol can be too much for those with genetic predispositions 0:03:08: Why women metabolise alcohol differently 0:04:45: Four in five women are unaware of the link between alcohol and breast cancer. 0:06:50: The alcohol industry's successful marketing strategy that led to the rise of female-targeted pink drinks 0:11:35: The three core pillars for behaviour change VALUABLE RESOURCES ⁠Join The High Performance Health Community⁠ ⁠Click here⁠ for discounts on all the products I personally use and recommend A BIG thank you to our sponsors who make the show possible Get weekly science tips to optimise your health and longevity to your inbox with Angela's free newsletter.

Angela talks to Dr. Ash Kapoor, a longevity specialist and cellular health expert, who shares his approach to health that focuses on understanding and addressing the root causes of disease and aging, particularly through the lens of the 12 Hallmarks of Aging.  Dr. Kapoor talks about the fact that true longevity is not just about extending lifespan, but about maximising independence, purposefulness, and fulfilment, explaining that modern stress depletes the body's primary energy source (ATP), forcing it to steal from the immune, hormonal, and nervous systems KEY TAKEAWAYS: Longevity Redefined: True longevity is defined not merely by living longer, but by being independent, purposeful, and pursuing fulfilment until an achievable age of 123. The Root Cause of Decline: All 126,000 known diseases can be traced back to the 12 Hallmarks of Aging, a breakdown in the body's cellular systems that is often driven by chronic modern stress A Strategy for Optimisation: Dr. Kapoor's approach involves a multi-stage strategy of detoxifying (cleaning the liver and gut), repairing (restoring hormones and nutrients, and re-establishing circadian rhythm), and renewing the body's cellular environment The Power of Inner Energy: The core problem is operating on stress-based energy (like cortisol and immune/hormonal reserves) instead of the primary mitochondrial energy (ATP) TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: 0:01:25: Defining Longevity: What true "living" means beyond just existing. 0:03:00: The Science of the 12 Hallmarks of Aging and the control we have over them. 0:08:48: The link between the external world (success) and internal depletion (energy crash). 0:18:25: The fundamental strategy: Detox, Repair, and Renew in the correct order. 0:25:05: Understanding hormone depletion: Why the body "steals" hormones and the concept of "restorative hormone therapy."

The discussion emphasises the importance of shifting from a mindset of searching for validation to one of exploring possibilities, highlighting that true peace and joy come from within, rather than from external circumstances KEY TAKEAWAYS: Inner Perspective vs. External Success: Achieving external success does not necessarily change one's internal beliefs about self-worth.  The Concept of the "Hungry Ghost": This term illustrates the idea that individuals can never feel satisfied with external achievements if they have unresolved internal beliefs of inadequacy.  Exploration vs. Searching: There is a distinction between searching, which stems from feelings of lack, and exploring, which is rooted in joy and curiosity.  Freedom and Joy as States of Being: Freedom and joy are not dependent on external circumstances but are states of mind.  TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: [00:02:01] Inner peace vs. external success. [00:03:58] Exploring vs. Searching. [00:08:08] Imagination and personal potential.
