In today's episode, I'm breaking down the exact strength training formula I use and teach — one that's designed specifically for women in their late 30s, 40s, 50s, and beyond. Because the rules don't change just because you get older. What your body needs stays pretty consistent, and today I'm giving you the simple, no-BS version of what actually works. In this episode, I cover: Why doing more — more cardio, more steps, more classes — is actually working against your goals The role of progressive overload and why your body needs a reason to build muscle Why cardio will never be your primary tool for changing your body composition The nutrition non-negotiables (or "suggestions," if that word feels better!) that I come back to again and again How to think about protein, carbohydrates, and fat in a way that's simple and sustainable Why 9 out of 10 times, the problem isn't your training — it's how you're fueling The strength training formula simplified: lift progressively, fuel with intention, recover on purpose, and repeat — for months, not weeks Let's dive in!

If Weight Loss Feels Harder Than It Should, There Is Usually a ReasonIn this episode of the PCOS Repair Podcast, Ashlene explores why women with PCOS often feel stuck despite genuine effort, and why generic weight loss advice frequently misses what is actually happening in the body. If you have tried restricting, working out harder, and starting over, and nothing seems to stick, this episode explains why.Why Generic Advice Often Fails with PCOSStandard weight loss plans rarely account for insulin signaling, cortisol, sleep-disrupted appetite hormones, and the cost of under-recovery. When the body's hormonal environment is different, the same advice produces different results. This episode breaks down the specific factors that make PCOS weight loss a distinct conversation.The Hidden Cost of Trying HarderAggressive restriction can lower metabolic rate over time, creating a rebound cycle. All-or-nothing thinking leads to repeated restart patterns. And mental exhaustion from constant effort can undermine every other healthy habit. This episode explains the physiology behind why more effort does not always produce more results.The GLP-1 ConversationA nuanced, balanced look at GLP-1 medications for PCOS weight loss. What they can do, what they cannot replace, and why understanding your body's foundations matters regardless of which tools you choose to use.What to Focus on InsteadBody responsiveness, sustainable habits, energy support, and a strategy built for how your specific body works. This is not about finding the perfect plan. It is about becoming the expert of your own body.You can take the quiz to discover your root cause herePCOS Root Cause Bootcamp WaitlistLet's continue the conversation on Instagram! What did you find helpful in this episode and what follow-up questions do you have?The full list of Resources & References Mentioned can be found on the Episode webpage at:https://nourishedtohealthy.com/ep-182

This episode is brought to you by the⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Primal Tallow Soaps & Balms.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Is it possible that our obsession with calories is blinding us to the true hormonal driver of obesity? In this episode, world-renowned metabolic researcher and insulin scientist Dr. Ben Bikman (PhD) joins us to deconstruct the "insulin-centric paradigm" of fat regulation. Drawing from his extensive laboratory research on the molecular mechanisms of metabolic disorders, Dr. Bikman explains why fat cells cannot store energy without the presence of insulin, regardless of caloric intake. From the competition of fuels in the Randall Cycle to the specific way carbohydrates and saturated fats interact with cellular signaling, this conversation provides the clarity needed to master your metabolism. Whether you are battling a weight-loss plateau or seeking root-cause insights into chronic disease, this discussion provides a clear path on how insulin affects metabolism, fat loss, and metabolic flexibility.In This Episode, We Reveal:The Insulin-Centric Paradigm: A scientific breakdown of why insulin is the primary gatekeeper of fat storage and how high levels prevent fat oxidation.The Mechanics of Fat Loss: Why "burning what you eat" is physiologically distinct from burning stored adipose tissue, and how to trigger the latter.The Randall Cycle & Fuel Prioritization: Understanding how the body chooses between glucose and fatty acids for fuel and the consequences of "metabolic inflexibility."Carbohydrates vs. Saturated Fats: A nuanced look at how different macronutrients influence insulin sensitivity and why the combination of carbs and fats can be a metabolic "perfect storm."Strategic Fasting & Refeeding: Why you should prioritize proteins and fats when breaking a fast to maintain a stable metabolic state.Identifying Clinical Markers: How to interpret common blood markers to identify insulin resistance long before it manifests as Type 2 Diabetes.

Every diet you've ever tried has failed you for one reason: it never told you when to eat. Your body runs on two energy systems. One burns sugar. The other burns fat. Most people never spend a single day in the second one. Around eight to ten hours without food, the switch flips. Ketones flood your brain. Hunger quiets. Mental clarity hits. Healing turns on. This is what fasting expert Dr. Mindy Pelz has been teaching for over 25 years, and what her book Fast Like a Girl made impossible to ignore. For women, timing is everything. Day 1 to 10, fast longer and lift heavier. Day 11 to 15, testosterone surges and libido climbs. Day 16 to 19 is for deeper fasts. After day 20, progesterone needs you to back off and rest. Fast like a man during the back half of your cycle and you'll tank the very hormones keeping you calm and regular. Underneath all of it sits the hormonal hierarchy. Oxytocin at the top. Cortisol below it. Then insulin. Then sex hormones. When you feel safe and connected, the whole stack works. When you don't, nothing else matters. Connection isn't optional for women. It's biology.

Dr. Antonella Schwarz returns to the Optimal Protein Podcast to discuss her latest study restuls and why building muscle—not simply losing weight—is one of the most powerful things we can do for longevity, metabolic health, and body composition. The PSMF Library is officially live

In this episode, I'm breaking down the four pillars of recomposition to help you shrink your body fat, build lean muscle, and reclaim the energy you had in your 20s. For 30 years, the fitness world has preached the same rule: you have to "bulk" to gain muscle, or "cut" to lose fat. But modern science shows us a different path. It is entirely possible to do both at the same time through a process called Body Recomposition.

Build Muscle, Burn Fat, Boost Recovery & Become Second Half StrongHow much protein should men over 40 eat?Men over 40 should aim for 150 grams of protein per day as a simple, effective target to support muscle, metabolism, recovery, fat loss, and healthy aging. A practical way to hit this is by eating around 50 grams of protein per meal across three meals, using high-quality protein sources like eggs, beef, chicken, fish, Greek yogurt, and whey protein.

This episode is brought to you by the⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Primal Tallow Soaps & Balms.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Is your weight loss stall actually a "gut" problem? In this episode, Dr. William Davis (MD), cardiologist and author of the Wheat Belly series and his new book Super Body, joins us to explain how dysbiosis in your gut microbiome is driving the epidemic of visceral fat and heart disease. Drawing on his latest clinical studies, Dr. Davis explains the mechanism of endotoxemia, where bacterial byproducts leak into the bloodstream, triggering systemic inflammation and insulin resistance.In this episode, Dr. Davis explains the specific strains needed to eradicate SIBO, including Lactobacillus gasseri, the updated "36-hour yogurt" protocol, and how the gut microbiome affects heart health beyond weight loss. This conversation provides science-based tools to help restore the microbiome. Whether you are struggling with stubborn belly fat or looking to optimize your cardiovascular markers, Dr. Davis bridges the gap between complex microbiology and practical, simple tips.

Vanessa Spina is joined by Dr. Eric Helms to break down the latest research on protein intake during fat loss and what it really takes to preserve muscle while dieting.

Most people think body fat is the problem. If you gain weight, the goal is simple: eat less, burn more, and try to get rid of it. But what if that way of thinking is fundamentally flawed? Today, I'm joined by Dr. William Li, a world-renowned physician and scientist who has led the development of more than 30 new medical treatments that impact care for over 70 diseases, including cancer, diabetes, blindness, heart disease, and obesity. Dr. Li has spent decades studying the biology of metabolism, fat, and disease. In his view, body fat itself is not the enemy. In fact, it plays a critical role in your health. The real problem begins when fat becomes excessive, dysfunctional, and inflammatory, disrupting the systems that regulate metabolism and energy balance. This shift in perspective changes everything.  

Today’s episode of Ask the Dr. was hosted by Dr. Michael Lange and Dr. Susan Summerton, focusing on wellness, anti-aging, weight loss, and cutting-edge nutrition. We took a deep dive into the all-new Fortifeye Fit Meal, discussing why it may be one of the most advanced and fully transparent meal replacements on the market. Unlike many products, Fortifeye Fit Meal clearly discloses every ingredient, with nothing sourced from China—giving consumers confidence in quality and purity. We also highlighted Tony’s incredible transformation—losing over 250 pounds naturally (from 530 lbs to 270 lbs) with the help of Dr. Lange, the Lange Survival Diet, Fortifeye Fit Meal, and Fortifeye Fit Pro. Key topics from today’s show include: • The ideal daily step count (7,000–8,700 steps) to reduce mortality and cognitive decline • How just 60 minutes of resistance training per week can significantly improve longevity and brain health • The dangers of artificial sweeteners on the gut microbiome and liver • Why Fortifeye Vitamins avoids all artificial ingredients • The benefits of saffron for mood, focus, and cognitive support • The importance of lutein and zeaxanthin (from food or supplements like Fortifeye Focus) after cataract surgery to help protect the macula from blue light exposure • Why weight loss ultimately comes down to simple math—burn more calories than you consume, while maintaining adequate protein intake to preserve muscle mass . We discussed Fortifeye Next Gen Curcumin as being one of the top curcumin supplements on the market and the only oleoresin food grade supplement with curcumin. We also previewed next week’s special guest, Jay from Eyedaptic, who will discuss innovative smart glasses designed to help patients with low vision regain independence. Plus, we touched on the latest designer eyewear now available at the Lange Eye Institute, including handcrafted Dutch and Swedish frames. This episode is packed with practical, science-based strategies to help you live longer, stronger, and healthier. learn more at www.fortifeye.com #AskTheDr #DrMichaelLange #Fortifeye #FitMeal #WeightLoss #AntiAging #Longevity #Nutrition #Fitness #HealthyLiving #Muscle #Protein #Microbiome #GutHealth #EyeHealth #MacularDegeneration #Lutein #Zeaxanthin #Saffron #BrainHealth #CognitiveHealth #Biohacking #Wellness #LongevityMedicineSupport the show: https://www.drmichaellange.com/category/ask-the-doctor/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Walking videos are everywhere — "walk 10,000 steps and melt belly fat." The conclusion is right: walking does reduce body fat. But the explanation is completely wrong. Your body compensates for ~80% of exercise calories. The real reason walking transforms metabolic health has almost nothing to do with calories burned. Here's the actual science.

Louise Digby explains why exercise alone often doesn't drive fat loss, especially for women in their late 30s, 40s and beyond, and why doing more workouts can backfire. She shares client examples where high-intensity training combined with under-fuelling led to stress, increased hunger, fatigue, inflammation, cravings, sleep disruption and sluggish thyroid function, and how reducing intensity, prioritising recovery, increasing calories and improving nourishment helped symptoms resolve and weight begin to shift. Louise outlines how the body compensates after workouts through reduced daily movement, increased appetite, improved efficiency and stress responses, and emphasises that fat loss happens when internal conditions are right: energy availability, hormone signalling (insulin, thyroid, cortisol), nutrient sufficiency, nervous system state, sleep and muscle mass.

February is officially in the books! In this episode, we're reflecting on what went well, the challenges we faced, and how to carry momentum into March. This month brought its fair share of obstacles, and honestly, we're not sad to see it go. But through it all, we've been reminded that progress over perfection is the goal — celebrating wins, learning from setbacks, and focusing on consistent, small steps rather than trying to do everything perfectly.

Is fasted cardio really better for fat loss? Or could eating protein before your workout actually improve fat burning, muscle retention, and long-term metabolic health — especially for women? In this deep-dive masterclass recap, Vanessa breaks down the science from her interview with exercise physiologist Dr. Katie Hirsch and unpacks the research on: Fasted vs fed training Essential amino acids before HIIT Muscle quality vs muscle size Intramuscular fat and metabolic dysfunction Perimenopause and anabolic resistance Protein timing for body recomposition This episode reframes the fat loss conversation away from "burning fat during workouts" and toward what truly matters: Preserving muscle, improving protein turnover, and protecting metabolic capacity.

Get 20% off at timeline.com/vanessa Perimenopause isn't just about estrogen. If you're eating less, working out more, and still gaining belly fat or losing muscle, the real issue may be metabolic — not hormonal. In this episode, Vanessa sits down with Dr. Nicole Huffman to unpack what's actually happening beneath the surface in midlife: rising insulin resistance, stress-driven blood sugar swings, declining metabolic flexibility, and the silent loss of muscle that lowers resting metabolic rate. They explore why ketosis can be a powerful tool during perimenopause — not as a rigid "diet," but as a metabolic state that stabilizes glucose, reduces inflammation, and helps restore the internal environment hormones rely on. They also explore the powerful connection between ketosis and fertility — including insulin resistance, progesterone signaling, PCOS, and why metabolic "safety signals" matter for ovulation. You'll also hear: Why muscle preservation changes everything after 40 The surprising connection between stress, insulin, and progesterone Why some women regain ovulation when blood sugar improves How to approach keto in a flexible, woman-centered way Why protein + lifting + sleep are non-negotiable Vanessa also shares her experience using protein-sparing modified fasting (PSMF) days to drive fat loss, body recomposition and ketogenesis while protecting lean mass — and why this may be a more effective strategy for women over traditional fasting. If you've ever said, "My body doesn't respond like it used to," this episode explains why — and what to do about it. Dr. Nicole Huffman also shares her Radiant Woman Method, a 7-week live program designed to help women restore metabolic balance during perimenopause.

You don't have a willpower problem. You have an insulin problem. In this episode, Ben Azadi breaks down nine foods commonly marketed as “healthy” that are secretly spiking insulin, blocking fat burning, and keeping belly fat stuck, even if you're eating clean or cutting calories. You'll learn why fat loss is driven by hormones, not calories, and how insulin shuts down your body's ability to burn stored fat. Ben explains how foods like whole wheat bread, fruit juice, instant oatmeal, protein bars, low-fat yogurt, almond milk, agave, granola, and whole grain cereal can all create metabolic gridlock. More importantly, he shares simple food swaps that lower insulin faster than fasting, reduce cravings, stabilize energy, and restore metabolic flexibility. This episode also challenges the calories-in vs calories-out myth, explains why food quality matters more than calorie counting, and reinforces a core truth of metabolic health: you don't lose weight to get healthy, you get healthy to lose weight. You'll also hear about: How insulin locks fat storage in place Why fructose targets the liver and increases visceral fat The role of inflammation in stubborn weight gain Why breakfast sets your fat-burning or fat-storing mode for the day Simple swaps that can flatten your belly within a week

January reminded us of something so important: progress always matters more than perfection. In this episode, we're recapping the month—what went well, what felt hard, and the lessons we're carrying forward. February wasn't about doing everything flawlessly; it was about showing up, adjusting when needed, and continuing to move forward even when life felt messy. If January didn't go exactly how you planned, this episode is your reminder that you didn't fail—you learned. Every step counts, and progress is still progress, even when it's imperfect.

In this episode, Dr. David Jockers dives into the benefits of the Protein Sparing Modified Fast, a powerful tool for burning fat, especially visceral fat. He explains how this strategy promotes fat loss while preserving lean muscle mass, even with a calorie-restricted diet.   Dr. Jockers shares how fasting triggers autophagy and the role it plays in cellular rejuvenation, helping the body break down old, damaged mitochondria and replace them with healthier ones.   He also discusses how protein-sparing fasting impacts insulin sensitivity, brain function, and overall resilience, while offering practical tips for implementing this approach into your lifestyle.   In This Episode:  00:00 Introduction to Fasting and Its Historical Context 00:48 Protein Sparing Modified Fast Explained 06:57 Dr. Jockers' Journey into Holistic Health 12:45 Introduction to Fasting Practices 14:20 Personal Fasting Experience and Benefits 17:32 Intermittent Fasting and Its Popularization 27:20 Autophagy and Cellular Rejuvenation 36:21 Challenges of Extended Fasting 37:13 Introduction to Protein Sparing Modified Fast 37:54 Benefits and Guidelines of Protein Sparing Modified Fast 40:35 Practical Tips for Protein Sparing Modified Fast 45:15 Addressing Common Concerns About Fasting 48:53 The Role of Ketones in Brain Health 54:42 Spiritual and Physical Benefits of Fasting 56:42 Autophagy and Protein Sparing Modified Fast 01:03:33 Tips for Enhancing Insulin Sensitivity 01:06:20 Favorite Meals and Desserts 01:08:31 Concluding Thoughts and Favorite Bible Verse   If you want practical, natural strategies to balance your hormones, heal your gut, boost your energy, and slow aging, don't miss The Dr. Josh Axe Show.

Understanding fat loss vs muscle building changes everything. Cardio helps burn fat. Strength training builds muscle.When you know the difference, you stop guessing — and start seeing real results.

In this episode, Ben Azadi shares a surprising 30-day experiment where he ate a small amount of raw honey before bed and tracked its effects on sleep, stress, cravings, energy, and fat loss. Ben explains how chronic low-carb dieting, fasting, or undereating carbohydrates at night can elevate cortisol, disrupt sleep, and stall fat loss, especially for people over 40. He breaks down why raw honey is metabolically different from sugar, highlighting its enzymes, polyphenols, antioxidants, and lower insulin response shown in human studies. You'll learn how low nighttime liver glycogen can trigger cortisol spikes and middle-of-the-night wake-ups, and how a teaspoon to tablespoon of raw honey before bed may support liver glycogen, reduce stress hormones, improve REM and deep sleep, and stabilize mood and energy. Ben shares his exact protocol, week-by-week results, who should avoid or modify this approach, how to choose high-quality raw honey, and whether this strategy affects ketosis. He also answers common questions about insulin, inflammation, fructose, melatonin, and long-term use. This episode reframes honey not as a sugar problem, but as a strategic metabolic tool to improve sleep, reduce stress, and support overall metabolic health.

Apple cider vinegar is not a fat burner or a detox. It is a metabolic signal that influences how your body handles sugar and insulin. In this episode, Ben explains why blood sugar spikes matter more than sugar itself, how insulin drives fat storage, and how apple cider vinegar can slow sugar absorption when used correctly. You'll learn the biggest mistakes people make with apple cider vinegar, the exact timing that makes it effective, and why taking it randomly or after eating sugar backfires. Ben shares his recommended protocol, including liquid vs capsule options, how often to use it, and why more is not better. He also explains how apple cider vinegar can support keto, low-carb, and carnivore diets by improving fat digestion. The episode also breaks down common myths around acid reflux, GERD, and stomach acid, and why metabolic health is about signals, not willpower or calorie counting. Key takeaway: Apple cider vinegar does not cause fat loss directly, but when used properly, it can reduce insulin spikes, support metabolic flexibility, and improve energy after meals.

In this episode, Dr. Jockers dives into the science of intermittent fasting and how it can be the key to burning fat and balancing blood sugar. He explains why timing your fasting window is more important than restricting calories.   You'll learn how insulin plays a pivotal role in fat storage and why fasting may not work if your blood sugar isn't stable. Dr. Jockers also discusses how cortisol can actually hinder fat loss, even during fasting.   We also touch on why women and men may need different approaches to fasting for optimal results. The strategies shared are practical, simple, and can be tailored to your lifestyle for long-term success.     In This Episode:  00:00 Introduction to intermittent fasting and its benefits 02:45 Explanation of the fasting window and its importance for fat loss 05:30 How insulin affects fat storage and fat burning 08:00 Why fasting might spike cortisol and the consequences for fat loss 10:15 Blood sugar stability: Key to success in intermittent fasting 12:00 Key differences in fasting approaches for men and women 14:30 Wrap-up and final fasting tips   If you want to burn belly fat…boost your energy levels…balance blood sugar…or relieve swelling in your legs or feet… Then you need to check out PureHealth Research immediately.   This company makes some amazing health-boosting supplements that are manufactured right here in America.
