Vitamin K2 (MK-7) and Coronary Artery Calcification: Insights from a 2-Year Trial: Nutritionist Leyla Muedin discusses a two-year randomized clinical trial in JAMA Cardiology from Maastricht University Medical Center reporting that daily vitamin K2 (menaquinone-7, MK-7) at 360 mcg slowed progression of coronary artery calcification (CAC) in 180 patients with confirmed atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and baseline CAC 50–400 Agatston units. Compared with placebo, consistent MK-7 use was associated with 29% lower CAC progression and 42% less arterial calcium mass progression, though CAC still increased in both groups; stenosis increases were numerically lower with MK-7 but not statistically significant. Leyla notes many participants were on statins and were smokers, highlighting that statins can raise CAC by stabilizing soft plaque via calcification. The trial suggests MK-7 may slow calcification in newer plaques, may improve arterial elasticity via matrix GLA protein activation, is inexpensive and safe, but clinical event reduction remains unproven; Leyla suggests considering MK-7 (possibly 360 mcg) with vitamin D, magnesium, and dietary measures.

Nathan Jones, founder and CEO of Xlear, Inc., reveals xylitol's role in supporting oral and nasal “gateway” microbiomes by selectively starving acid-producing Strep mutans rather than indiscriminately killing bacteria, and warns that harsh mouthwashes can disrupt beneficial oral bacteria linked to nitric oxide production and possibly blood pressure. Jones outlines Spry and Xlear products (gum, mints, toothpaste, mouthwash, dry-mouth “Rain,” and upcoming gummy candies, a new dental probiotic with added nutrients, and a direct-to-consumer oral bacteria test kit with pre/post tracking). He discusses diet, emphasizing sugar as a key driver of cavities and criticizing limited focus on sugar in a Surgeon General oral health report. In part two, Jones describes ongoing and planned legal actions against the FTC over shifting evidentiary standards and reputational damage, then reviews Xlear's allergy and respiratory approach via nasal hygiene, product tiers (regular, Max with quercetin, Rescue botanicals, and a decongestant), and a forthcoming ectoine-based spray to support mucus barrier integrity.

Nitric Oxide Explained: Vascular Health, Exercise Performance, and N1o1 with Dr. Nathan Bryan, international Leader in Molecular Medicine, the first to describe nitrite and nitrate as indispensable nutrients required for optimal cardiovascular health. He details NO as a ubiquitous messenger affecting blood flow, erectile function, cognition, exercise performance, endothelial dysfunction, and aging-related declines in NO production. Bryan explains why PDE5 inhibitors like Viagra prolong cyclic GMP signaling but don't fix NO deficiency, and why beet products often fail due to variable nitrate content and inadequate dosing. He outlines his NO lozenge approach that generates NO gas from sodium nitrite and magnesium ascorbate, plus a fermented beet powder drink (NOBeets), and emphasizes the role of oral bacteria (and harms of antiseptic mouthwash/fluoride) in nitrate conversion. They review published endpoints, including flow-mediated dilation, blood pressure effects, inflammation markers, triglycerides, stem cells, plaque regression, applications to Alzheimer's, glaucoma/microvascular disease, safety/dosing considerations, risks of arginine supplementation, and a dual-chamber topical NO serum developed from wound-healing experience.

For two years, Erin did everything the plan told her. Lifting five times a week, cardio five times a week, eating around 1,800 calories. And her body rebelled.

If you're disciplined Monday to Friday and still stuck, listen close.IN THIS EPISODE WE CHAT:Why eating 1,800 calories for two straight years left Erin more stuck, not leanerThe "disciplined all week, loose on the weekend" pattern that quietly cancels out your deficitWhat happened when we did the opposite of what she expected and dropped her training sessionsThe number we raised her calories to, and why the size of that gap floored herThe single question on our very first Zoom that changed how she showed up to everythingWhy her body fluctuated like crazy , and how she learned to stop fearing itThe first-ever defined legs at 45, and what "leanness stacks" really means for her next roundREADY TO GO ALL IN AND BECOME YOUR STRONGEST, FITTEST, AND HOTTEST SELF?

Get The No BS 6-Pack Formula: https://www.nobs6pack.com?htrafficsource=libsyn-organic&hcategory=MPSHOW&el=2885 This Episode discusses why visible six-pack abs are rare and emphasizes that abs are muscles that must be built while getting leaner through improved body composition, not just weight loss. It outlines a three-part approach: (1) track everything you eat and drink for seven days without changing habits to establish a true calorie baseline, then monitor waist or body-fat trends; (2) create a modest calorie deficit of about 500 calories, eat about 1 gram of protein per pound of target body weight, avoid heavily processed foods, and test removing bloat-triggering foods like gluten, dairy, eggs, or legumes; and (3) prioritize strength training over cardio to preserve muscle, and train abs with resistance, full range of motion, and moderate reps rather than high-rep endurance work.

Nutrition has become far more complicated than it needs to be. Most people know they need to eat better. They've tried meal plans, calorie tracking apps, cutting carbs, cutting fats, fasting, and every new diet trend that promises faster results. Yet despite all the information available, food remains the biggest obstacle standing between them and their goals. In this episode of The Kirk Miller Podcast, Kirk shares a simple framework that removes the overwhelm from nutrition and makes food management far easier to understand and apply. Whether your goal is fat loss, building lean muscle, improving performance, preparing for a HYROX event, or simply optimising your health, this episode explains why focusing on one key variable can simplify the entire process. Kirk breaks down the role of protein, fibre, fats, and carbohydrates, explaining why most people should keep three of these consistent and only adjust one based on their goals. Rather than obsessing over exact calorie numbers or constantly changing multiple variables at once, this practical approach provides a repeatable system that can be applied regardless of whether you're tracking food, following a meal plan, or eating on the go. This episode is designed for busy business owners, leaders, and professionals who want a straightforward way to improve their results without adding more complexity to their lives. In this episode: Why nutrition is often overcomplicated The simplest framework for managing food How to approach fat loss without extreme dieting Why protein intake should remain consistent The importance of fibre for health and performance Understanding fat intake and hormone health The role carbohydrates play in fat loss and performance How to adjust food intake based on your goals A practical approach to sustainable nutrition Building a healthier relationship with food If you'd like help implementing a nutrition and fitness strategy that works in the real world, apply here: www.kirkmiller.co.uk

Sleep, Glymphatic Detox, and the Hidden Heart Risks of Sleep Apnea: Nutritionist Leyla Muedin explains how sleep supports brain “housekeeping” via the glymphatic system, a glial-lymphatic waste-clearance network most active during sleep that moves cerebrospinal fluid through brain spaces to remove metabolites and toxic proteins such as amyloid beta, with sleep deprivation linked to amyloid accumulation. She notes other clearance pathways, including meningeal lymphatic vessels, whose impaired function is associated with neurodegenerative disease and brain injury. Reviews of human studies suggest sleep influences glymphatic outcomes, though results are inconsistent and methods vary. She emphasizes that poor sleep is associated with dementia risk, depressive symptoms, cardiovascular events, mortality, and impaired glucose metabolism, and highlights lifestyle strategies that may improve sleep. She warns that untreated obstructive sleep apnea accelerates cardiovascular aging via intermittent hypoxia and inflammation, raising blood pressure and cardiovascular event risk, while treatment (e.g., CPAP) may halt or reverse damage.

Is it protein? Calories? Carbohydrates? Fruits and vegetables? Supplements? The answer may be simpler and more practical than many people expect. In this episode, Shelley explores one of the most common nutrition questions and explains why focusing on overall eating patterns matters more than any single food, nutrient, or meal. Learn why consistency often outweighs short-term changes, how balance and flexibility support long-term health, and why nutrition is rarely as black and white as social media makes it seem. The discussion also covers plant-forward eating, personalized nutrition, habit formation, and the role of realistic expectations in creating sustainable eating patterns. If you've ever wondered whether one food choice can make or break your health, this episode provides a broader perspective on what truly matters most.

In this Q&A episode, I'm answering some of the fitness questions you have sent in recently, and we are covering a lot of the things that tend to make women overthink their progress.We talk about protein and whether it's possible to eat too much, how to find a fat loss calorie goal that actually works for you, and what to do if tracking macros brings out your perfectionist side. I also break down whether you need special shoes for lifting, if compound lifts are enough to build muscle, and how I became more comfortable lifting heavy weights over time.We also get into deload weeks…what they are, when to use them, and why backing off can actually help you keep making progress. And of course, we talk about cravings, willpower, mindset, and why white-knuckling your way through fitness is not the goal.This episode is practical, honest, and full of reminders that fitness does not have to be so all-or-nothing. You do not need to be perfect with your macros, scared of eating more protein, or intimidated by the gym. You need a plan, realistic expectations, and the confidence to keep showing up.Episode Recap:Protein goals and whether you can eat too muchPerfectionism with macrosFinding your fat loss caloriesShoes for liftingCompound lifts vs. isolation movementsDeload weeksBuilding confidence with heavy weightsCravings, willpower, and mindsetLinks/Resources:SHOP UFYF merchandiseGrab your FREE Body Recomp Meal Prep and get the UFYF NewsletterSHOP Kion - my favorite Protein, EAA's and Creatine!Listen to the Girls with Opinions PodcastJoin FIT CLUB, my monthly membership with workouts you can do at home or the gymConnect with me on Instagram @kristycastillofit and @unfuckyourfitnesspodcastJoin my FREE Facebook group, Unf*ck Your FitnessClick HERE for my favorite fitness & life things!Send me a text with episode ideas or just to say hi!

Pandemic Policies, Vaccines, and Harms to Children: pediatrician and author Dr. Elizabeth Mumper discusses her book “Kids and COVID: Costly Mistakes That Must Never Happen Again.” Mumper argues parents should question authorities, citing early pandemic decisions such as lockdowns, masking, and a “one size fits all” vaccine strategy despite children's low risk from COVID. She supports the Great Barrington Declaration's focus on protecting high-risk groups and criticizes suppression of repurposed treatments like hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin. The discussion raises concerns about mRNA vaccine safety, biodistribution of lipid nanoparticles, underreporting to VAERS, loss of long-term control groups, myocarditis risk in young males, and claims of severe neurologic effects and “turbo cancers.” Mumper describes developmental, educational, and mental-health harms from masking and school closures, challenges vaccine mandates as violating informed consent, explains the cell danger response concept, and criticizes Paxlovid while favoring integrative approaches.

SummaryIn this Q&A episode, Chase and Chris answer some of the most common questions they hear. They talk about how to keep getting stronger in the gym, when to increase your weights, and why most people can lift more than they think. They also explain why calories matter most for fat loss, even if your macros are not perfect.The conversation covers whether loose skin can affect body measurements after weight loss and why progress should be measured in more than one way. Finally, they dive into food noise caused by growing up with food scarcity and share practical ways to build trust with your body, slow down your reactions around food, and create healthier habits over time.If you've ever struggled with confidence, progress, or your relationship with food, this episode is packed with helpful advice and encouragement.Chapters(00:00) The Woman Rowing Solo From California to Hawaii and Lessons on Resilience(05:45) How to Progressively Overload and Build Strength(14:45) Calories vs. Macros: What Matters Most for Fat Loss?(17:20) Can Loose Skin Affect Your Measurements?(23:20) How to Quiet Food Noise After Growing Up With Food ScarcitySUBMIT YOUR QUESTIONS to be answered on the show: https://forms.gle/B6bpTBDYnDcbUkeD7How to Connect with Us:Chase's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/changing_chase/Chris' Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/conquer_fitness2021/Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/665770984678334/Interested in 1:1 Coaching: https://conquerfitnessandnutrition.com/1on1-coachingJoin The Fit Fam Collective: https://conquerfitnessandnutrition.com/fit-fam-collective

Welcome to the Mind Muscle Connection Podcast!In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Mike Ormsbee to break down the research on pre-sleep nutrition, protein timing, and how eating before bed actually impacts body composition, recovery, and sleep. Mike has spent over two decades studying nutrition and exercise physiology, with a strong focus on how protein intake around sleep affects muscle and metabolism.We discuss what the research actually shows about eating before bed, whether it helps or hurts fat loss, and how pre-sleep protein affects muscle protein synthesis and recovery. We also get into protein type (casein vs whey vs plant), how much protein you really need per day, and why total intake matters more than timing for most people.We also cover collagen supplementation for joint health and pain, what the research says about its effectiveness, and how it should actually be used in practice. Mike also shares how he approaches training and nutrition himself while balancing strength, conditioning, and endurance work.If you've ever wondered whether eating before bed is good or bad for fat loss, how to structure your protein intake, or whether supplements like collagen are worth it, this episode will give you a clear breakdown of the research and how to apply it. Let's talk about:Dr. Ormsbee's Background and Research JourneyHow Pre-Sleep Nutrition Research BeganWhat the Research Shows About Eating Before BedPre-Sleep Protein and AppetiteMuscle Protein Synthesis and RecoveryPre-Sleep Nutrition and Sleep QualityWhat Current Sleep Research ShowsWho Benefits Most From Pre-Sleep Protein?Recovery, Performance, and Late-Night TrainingDoes Eating Before Bed Affect Fat Loss?Calories, Food Quality, and Future ResearchSleep Supplements and Pre-Sleep NutritionMain Takeaways on Pre-Sleep ProteinCasein vs Whey vs Plant ProteinHow Much Protein Do You Actually Need?Protein and the Thermic Effect of FoodProtein Distribution and Meal FrequencyThe Leucine ThresholdCollagen and Joint HealthHow to Use CollagenDifferent Types of CollagenMike's Training ApproachNutrition, Body Composition, and Staying LeanWhere to Find Dr. Mike OrmsbeeFollow me on Instagram for more information and education:https://www.instagram.com/jeffhoehn_/?hl=enHow You Can Work With Me?: https://jhhealth.net/workwithme/Coaching application:https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfE-99wLDZRXlOOY1pWuAmkogdZOm-7ZvN_thbqNWLdNrj5bg/viewformBody Recomp Checklist 2.0:https://chipper-producer-6244.kit.com/26b5c9f94a

Perimenopause, Insulin Resistance, and Persistent Muscle & Joint Pain: A Functional Medicine Framework: Nutritionist Leyla Muedin discusses perimenopausal musculoskeletal symptoms—new or persistent joint pain, muscle aches, and tendon problems—and highlights a Clinician's Journal article by physical therapist Tara Moore proposing insulin resistance screening in perimenopausal musculoskeletal care. She explains that declining estradiol during the menopausal transition can worsen insulin signaling, increase visceral fat, and reduce insulin sensitivity, affecting skeletal muscle recovery and potentially contributing to tendinopathies and poor or short-lived responses to localized treatments like PT. The framework emphasizes assessing systemic metabolic contributors (e.g., sedentary behavior, high-carbohydrate nutrition patterns, PCOS, central weight gain, stress, sleep disruption) and addressing mediators such as inflammation and impaired glucose utilization. She suggests integrating metabolic risk assessment, sleep and stress strategies, resistance training, and interdisciplinary referrals, arguing that nutrition and supplementation—especially a low-carb approach—may improve recovery and pain outcomes.

Dr. Garth Nicolson, Founder, President, Chief Scientific Officer, and Emeritus Research Professor of Molecular Pathology at the Institute for Molecular Medicine in Huntington Beach, California, and Research Advisor for Nutritional Therapeutics, explains how membrane damage from free radicals and loss of mitochondrial transmembrane potential contribute to declining energy with age, noting studies in older adults showing improved energy output, fatigue, cognition, mood, and activity after NTFactor lipids, a protected phospholipid supplement balanced toward mitochondrial lipid composition. He describes evidence of lipid delivery using fluorescent-tagged lipids in sperm, with improved motility, and discusses applications including wound healing in veterans, removal of hydrophobic toxins via a concentration-driven “conveyor belt” process, and improved transport of nutrients like CoQ10. He details articles on normal aging, menopause-related changes supported by membranes, dementia risk linked to hearing loss, and rat studies showing delayed hearing loss with NTFactor, and mentions research on EMF sensitivity and planned schizophrenia trials.

Ep 118: In this "Ask Me Anything" Episode, we cover some questions from the everyday girl and from other coaches regarding the best ways to retain clients and encourage them to be consistent. We talk about ideas on if you should start trying to build muscle at your current calorie intake or if you should go into an immediate small bulk, what foods girls should include in their diet if they find that it's hard for them to hold onto weight while strength training, and what rib cage flare + anterior pelvic tilts may look and feel like and what i'm doing to address those things on myself!We also dive in on all of my tips if you have access to a full gym and what you should consider if you're wanting to build out an efficient full body workout.

SummaryIn this Coaches Roundtable episode, Chase and Chris discuss how to stay on track with your health goals during the busy summer months. They explain why maintenance can sometimes be a better goal than fat loss when vacations, cookouts, and family events start filling your schedule.The coaches also answer questions about when it's time to lower calories versus when you're simply being impatient with results. They talk about using data instead of emotions when making nutrition changes and why consistency matters more than making drastic cuts.They dive into a listener question about gluconeogenesis and protein intake while following a ketogenic diet for medical purposes, explaining how the body creates glucose when needed and why protein needs can vary from person to person.Another important discussion focuses on the idea of a "good enough" day. Chase and Chris explain why trying to be perfect with calories, protein, workouts, water, sleep, and steps can leave you feeling like a failure, even when you're making great progress.Finally, they tackle food noise and constantly thinking about food. They share practical strategies for creating more structure, reducing decision fatigue, and building a life that doesn't revolve around food.Chapters(00:00) Summer Is Here: Why Your Goals May Need to Change(01:30) Should You Shift From Fat Loss to Maintenance?(05:07) How to Know When It's Time to Lower Calories(09:36) Gluconeogenesis, Protein Intake, and Ketogenic Diets(14:55) What Does a "Good Enough" Day Really Look Like?(21:17) Tired of Thinking About Food All the Time?(27:31) Final Takeaways and Closing ThoughtsSUBMIT YOUR QUESTIONS to be answered on the show: https://forms.gle/B6bpTBDYnDcbUkeD7How to Connect with Us:Chase's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/changing_chase/Chris' Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/conquer_fitness2021/Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/665770984678334/Interested in 1:1 Coaching: https://conquerfitnessandnutrition.com/1on1-coachingJoin The Fit Fam Collective: https://conquerfitnessandnutrition.com/fit-fam-collective

In this episode of Fuel Your Drive, I reveal one of my biggest recovery and performance secrets: how I burn up to 500 calories while sitting completely still. Most people think a sauna is just a place to relax, but when used correctly, it can become a powerful tool for fat loss, recovery, cardiovascular health, mental toughness, and peak performance. I break down my exact sauna protocol, why I spend 25 minutes in 170-degree heat multiple times per week, how it helps me train at a high level year-round, and why the last few minutes inside the sauna may be the most important part. If you're looking to improve recovery, increase endurance, reduce inflammation, and build the discipline required to perform at your highest level, this episode is for you.

The sardine fast is officially in the rearview mirror — and I'm here to give you the full debrief. Five days, 18 cans a day, 3,000 calories of sardines. Was it miserable? Mostly. Was it worth it? That depends on what you're trying to prove. I did it to cut through the noise around these viral "miracle" food fasts, and the takeaway is simple: there's no magic. Calories are calories, and context matters every time.Beyond the experiment, Greg and I get into what's moving at Keto Brick HQ — Primal Fudge is back in stock, apparel is closing in on launch, and we've got some new things in the kitchen we're not quite ready to talk about yet. We also touch on the upcoming bodybuilding shows we're involved with this month.And then the conversation goes somewhere real. With the anniversary of Greg's dad's passing coming up, we talk about loss, the passage of time, and why you can't afford to keep putting off the people who matter most. This one's worth a listen.Greg Mahler is also a lifetime natural bodybuilder, and can be followed on Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/ketogreg80/Register For My FREE Masterclass: https://www.ketobodybuilding.com/registration-2Get Keto Brick: https://www.ketobrick.com/Subscribe to the podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/42cjJssghqD01bdWBxRYEg?si=1XYKmPXmR4eKw2O9gGCEuQ

Nutritionist Leyla Muedin discusses research showing simple strength tests—grip strength and a five-rep sit-to-stand chair test—predict longevity in older women. In a University at Buffalo study of over 5,000 women ages 63–99 followed for eight years, stronger grip and faster chair-stand times were linked to lower mortality; every additional 7 kg of grip strength corresponded to a 12% reduction in death risk, and faster chair-stands were also associated with improved survival, even after adjusting for activity, cardiovascular fitness, and inflammation. She emphasizes prioritizing muscle-strengthening alongside aerobic exercise and suggests accessible resistance options (weights, bodyweight moves, or household items) with professional guidance as needed. She then cites UK Biobank data linking long-term statin use to declines in grip strength and appendicular lean mass, urging discussion with physicians and added vigilance, especially for those also using GLP-1 drugs that may reduce protein intake and muscle mass.

We were tired of talking about depressing military losses and bureaucratic collapses, so today Evita and I decided to bring you a cheerful, lighthearted special about something universally joyful: grocery shopping in 2026 Russia!...It goes down from there.Welcome to a tour of a culinary "shitutopia." In this special episode of The Eastern Border, Evita and I perform a deep-dive regulatory and macroeconomic audit on the Russian import-substitution food economy. From AI-hallucinated marketplace listings and 239-ruble bone-paste sausages to a blatant "Red Herring" legal scam, we break down exactly how the isolation economy has turned the Russian supermarket into a predatory dumping ground for toxic, unregulated industrial waste.We look at "Evita's Theorem" of gray-market exploitation, calculate the devastating $12 billion shrinkflation black hole, explore the tragic "Mayonnaise Delusion," and break down the absolute madness of a single plastic Kinder Joy egg costing 1.5% of a provincial firefighter's entire monthly salary.Grab a drink, look closely at your own dinner plate, and welcome to the illusionary calorie economy.

Lots of nutrition and training content in today's show, including being cranky with 1000 calories (not surprised), fitness trackers and heart rate, which calf machines are best and new releases for members!SUMMER SWOLE SPECIALS: https://summerswole.com

(10:40) Grip strength can be an indicator of health, and it can be measured. Why not do something simple that will help your strength? Obesity is a large driver in increasing cancer rates in people under 50 years of age, especially colon cancers. (28:00) Exercise improves certain biomarkers in kids. (33:33) Parents can help at home by keeping junk food out of the house, but ultimately, kids need to decide for themselves. Speaking negatively to them about weight issues can cause different problems. Carbs like bread, pasta, and grains can cause weight gain, even when keeping below a caloric range. (44:00) Calories in, calories out is not the end-all, be-all. Even eating low-carb can cause you to gain weight if you're adding too much to a meal. (46:00) Do not think you can pound even healthy food and not gain weight. A vast number of nutritional studies have been conducted, but not in humans; consequently, findings from studies in mice do not necessarily translate to humans.
