Podcasts about carbs

The internet has made health and fitness more accessible than ever… but it's also made it way more confusing. In this episode of Level Up With Sharelle and Dani, we break down some of the biggest nutrition myths circulating online right now and why they're misleading so many people. We talk about: • The truth about hormones and fat loss • Why carbs don't make you fat (and why your body actually needs them) • The myth that eating after a certain time causes weight gain • How overly rigid nutrition rules can create more stress than progress The reality? Most people don't need extreme diets or complicated protocols. They need to focus on the basics. Consistent training. Balanced nutrition. Sleep. Recovery. And a strategy that actually fits their life. If you've ever felt confused by the constant stream of nutrition advice online, this episode will help you filter through the noise.

Do you need carbohydrates to thrive, or even survive? This really shouldn't be a debate anymore, the evidence is overwhelming against it. Humans have not only survived but thrived in much harsher and life-threatening conditions, such as the ice ages, for 99% of human existence without carbohydrates. So as far as survival, that's a non-starter to suggest that you need carbohydrates. As for thriving, again the evidence is overwhelming that carbohydrates cause direct harm, without any added benefit as long as you are getting adequate nutrition and energy from other sources, such as our primary diet of fatty meat. You can even see this in the genome, where humans didn't even have the genetic code to make amylase in any abundance prior to the agricultural revolution about 10,000 years ago. Amylase is the enzyme that breaks down starch, plant carbohydrates. So if we didn't even have the genetic ability to break down starch and carbohydrates from plants, we clearly weren't eating them or requiring them. The evidence goes on and on, as you will see in this video, so as you can see the evidence is thoroughly against carbohydrates being necessary or beneficial in the human diet. This is of course not an exhaustive list of evidence against eating carbohydrates. What are some other reasons and evidence that you can think of as well? #carnivore #keto #healthy #health #nutrition   Join my NEW 90-day Carnivore Challenge group on Mighty Networks below! https://dr-chaffee-s-90-day-carnivore-challenge.mn.co/landing/ If you liked this and want to learn more go to my new website www.DrAnthonyChaffee.com

What do elite athletes do differently when it comes to fat loss? In this episode, Vanessa breaks down the most surprising takeaways from her conversation with sports dietitian Emily Mitchell, who has worked with professional teams including UCLA Athletics, the LA Galaxy, the Clippers, and the Buccaneers. While many people think getting lean requires constant dieting, eliminating carbohydrates, and pushing through hunger, elite athletes often take a completely different approach. Vanessa explores six of the most powerful fat loss strategies used by elite performers — including why many athletes don't diet during their competitive season, why protein intake is far higher than most people realize, and how strategic carbohydrate timing can actually support fat loss and performance.

Are you in a calorie deficit and not losing weight?Do carbs make you gain fat?Does lifting weights make women bulky?Is cardio really the fastest way to lose fat?In this episode of BEcoming Relentless, I break down 10 of the most common fitness and fat loss myths that keep women frustrated, confused, and stuck.

Welcome to Episode 129 of the Trail Running Ireland Podcast.In this weeks show we analyse once again the topic of optimum fuelling strategies, revisiting our analysis of Tim Noakes latest paper that we discussed in our last show while looking at the recent research paper on fuelling from James Morton's who has worked with British Cycling, Team Sky, elite marathoners, and who is very much in favour of high carbs for prolonged intense exercise.

Text Dr. Black your questions or comments.Carbs have a reputation problem.We're often told they're the reason for weight gain, blood sugar issues, and that afternoon crash—so the solution must be to cut them out. But that approach usually backfires. Not because people lack discipline, but because carbs are deeply woven into the foods we love, our cultures, and our daily routines.In this episode, I move beyond sugar and talk about starchy foods like rice, potatoes, pasta, and bread—the foods many people feel guilty about eating.Here's the truth:Carbs aren't evil. But how much we eat, how processed they are, and even how we eat them makes a big difference in how our bodies respond.Instead of fear or restriction, this episode focuses on simple ways to make carb-rich foods work better for you—so you can enjoy them without the energy crash or constant hunger.I share five easy, practical “carb hacks” you can start using right away, including:Keeping the structure of carbs intact (think skins & whole grains)Pairing carbs with protein and healthy fats so they're more fillingThe secret hack to make starch healthierChoosing carbs that also support gut healthEven changing the order you eat foods at a mealNo extreme diets.No cutting out foods you love.Just smarter, more thoughtful choices that add up over time.If you've ever felt stuck between “carbs make me feel bad” and “I don't want to give them up,” this episode is for you.If you enjoyed this episode, please take a moment to rate it, leave a review, and most importantly, share it with a friend!

What if the foods we were told are “healthy” are actually driving the modern epidemic of obesity, heart disease, and type 2 diabetes?In this episode, Daniel Trevor — citizen scientist and heart attack survivor — breaks down the science behind his book Unholy Trinity and explains how refined carbohydrates, sugar, and industrial seed oils are fueling insulin resistance, metabolic dysfunction, and chronic disease.After suffering a heart attack despite believing he was healthy, Daniel dove deep into peer-reviewed research and uncovered what he believes is the true root cause of modern illness: hyperinsulinemia and insulin resistance.In this episode, you'll discover:Why 93% of Americans are metabolically unhealthy and don't know itThe one blood test your doctor almost never orders — but could save your lifeHow big food engineers your food addiction at the molecular levelThe 70-year cholesterol lie that's still driving billions in statin prescriptionsWhy "heart healthy whole grains" may be spiking your blood sugar more than a Snickers barThe silent role of insulin resistance in heart disease, Alzheimer's, cancer, and fatty liver diseaseHow to reverse metabolic disease through diet — without expensive supplements or prescriptionsIf you're concerned about obesity, prediabetes, heart disease, cholesterol, fatty liver, or metabolic health, this conversation will challenge what you think you know.Most chronic diseases don't start with symptoms — they start with silent metabolic dysfunction.Enjoyed this episode?

​​You have probably seen “net carbs” on food labels or heard the term in low carb and keto spaces. But what does it actually mean, and does it matter?

Rick Hill defeated terminal cancer in 1974 after walking out of the Mayo Clinic — and 51 years later he's medication-free. The weapon? Diet, B17 laetrile, and pancreatic enzymes. The same hospital that told Rick he had months to live sent him home with white bread, Jell-O, and pasta. That's not an accident. That's the system. What Rick did instead — and what Steve Jobs never knew about — is exactly what the MAHA movement is finally starting to wake people up to. Carbs feed cancer. Sugar is the fuel.

Get Dr. Vonda's latest insights on strength, bone health, longevity, and aging with power delivered straight to your inbox. Join her free health & longevity newsletter here: https://www.drvondawright.com/resources/aging-longevity   I've spent years focusing on your external mobility, but I've become obsessed with the world living inside you. We used to think of the gut as just a digestion tube; now we know it's a thriving ecosystem and a metabolic pharmacy that dictates your weight, mood, and longevity. If you're doing "everything right" but still struggling with energy, the issue isn't your willpower, it's your microbiome.   In this episode, I sit down with researcher Dr. Karen Corbin to decode the gut's "black box." We're moving beyond basic digestion to explore how fiber triggers the same satiety hormones as modern weight-loss injections. Stop viewing food as mere calories and start seeing it as fuel for your internal garden. It's time to stop fighting your biology and start partnering with your bacteria to design a resilient future from the inside out. What we cover: - How your gut bacteria produce Butyrate, a "magic" compound that heals the gut and lowers inflammation. - The science of how fiber and resistant starch signal your brain to feel full and satisfied. - Why ultra-processed foods are "too easy" for our bodies to digest, leading to metabolic disaster. - Why "industrial milling" is the hidden enemy of metabolic health, turning even "healthy" grains into rapid glucose spikes by making them too easy to digest. - Why your choices at dinner determine your blood sugar response to breakfast the next morning, proving that your microbiome works on a 12-to-24-hour cycle. - Understanding that because every person's "internal garden" is unique, the same "healthy" food can cause a sugar spike in one person while keeping another perfectly stable. - Exploring the deep connection between the health of your microbiome and the energy-producing engines in your cells that drive your vitality.   About Dr Karen Corbin: Dr. Karen Corbin is a PhD researcher and keynote speaker at the forefront of precision nutrition with Advent Health.

Welcome to the Mind Muscle Connection Podcast!In this episode, I break down When Carbs Help With Recovery and When They Don'tI walk through how overall stress load impacts recovery first, then explain when adding carbs can genuinely lower stress on the body, like during prolonged dieting, low energy availability, or high training demands. I also cover the other side of it, including metabolic health, insulin resistance, lifestyle stress, and poor sleep, and how simply adding more carbs in those cases may create more problems.This is a very informative episode, so be sure to tune in!Let's talk about:IntroductionCarbs and recoveryStress load on the bodyCalories still matterWhy carbs are the most variable macronutrientHow carbs lower stress hormonesCarbs before bed in lean dietersHigh training volume / under-fueled for demandTransition into when carbs don't helpMetabolic syndrome markersFinal takeawayFollow me on Instagram for more information and education: @jeffhoehn_FREE 30 Min Strategy Call: HEREBody Recomp Checklist 2.0 HERENutrition Periodization Masterclass: HEREHow You Can Work With Me?: HERECoaching application: HERE

Send a textLast week we started digging into the weight loss truths that made people the most upset. Today, we're continuing that conversation.Some of these didn't surprise me. Some absolutely did. But if something makes people angry, that usually means it's worth talking about.So let's keep going.In this episode, I tackle four more weight loss truths that stirred up strong reactions:Emotional hunger is realCarbs and fat don't make you fatProtein is not a magic weight loss bulletYou do not have to exercise to lose weightWe're unpacking why these ideas make people uncomfortable, where the confusion comes from, and what actually matters if you're trying to lose significant weight.We talk about:Emotional hunger You're not imagining it. Emotional hunger is real. Everyone eats for emotional reasons. The difference isn't whether it exists, it's how it shows up in your life and how you manage it.Carbs, fat, and the calorie conversation It's not the macro. It's the calories. Your Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE) determines whether you maintain, lose, or gain weight. Eat consistently below it and you lose. Eat above it and you gain. Carbs and fat aren't villains. Surplus calories are.Protein and the myth of the magic fix Protein helps with satiety. It's important. It's useful. It is not magic. It cannot override a calorie surplus. If you're trying to lose a large amount of weight, mastering your calories matters more than perfecting your macros.Exercise and weight loss This one always stirs the pot. Exercise is wonderful for mobility, health, and longevity. But it is not required for weight loss. Controlling your intake is what drives fat loss. For many people, believing they must exercise creates a barrier so big that they never start. That lie does more damage than good.We also talk about:The danger of “earning” food through workoutsFitness tracker inaccuraciesDouble dipping exercise caloriesThe mindset trap of “I deserve this”Why significant weight loss is different from losing 5 to 10 poundsSupport the showLooking for help on your weight loss journey?

Episode Overview In this final installment of the Conquer the Operational Chaos series, John Kitchens and Joel Perso break down one of the most overlooked — yet most powerful — CEO disciplines: knowing your numbers. Growth without visibility creates chaos. More agents, more leads, more deals — without proper tracking — only amplifies inefficiencies. In this session, John and Joel unpack how to measure what actually matters, how to assign the right metrics to each role, and how to move from emotional decision-making to data-driven leadership. If you've ever wondered why your P&L says you're profitable but your bank account feels tight… or why your team feels busy but results are inconsistent… this episode will reset how you think about performance. Because if you don't know your numbers, you don't know your business. Key Topics Covered The Final Piece of Operational Clarity Recap of the Conquer the Operational Chaos framework: Week 1: The Operational Hire Week 2: Building Processes Week 3: Core Buyer & Listing Systems Week 4: Measuring What Matters Why growth without tracking leads to internal breakdown How knowing your numbers protects profitability and performance What "Know Your Numbers" Really Means The difference between tracking data and making decisions Why metrics exist to improve leadership — not to create busywork The CEO mindset shift from guessing to measuring The Financial Foundations Every CEO Must Understand Profit & Loss (P&L): Revenue, expenses, and true profitability Balance Sheet: Assets, liabilities, and owner equity Cash Flow: Why profit and cash are not the same Budget vs. Actual: Where silent leaks in your business happen Assigning Metrics to Every Role Every role in your business must have at least one key metric. Why? People want to know what winning looks like Clear agreements eliminate emotional performance conversations Numbers create accountability without friction Metrics vs. Targets (The Critical Distinction) Tracking a number isn't enough. You must define: What is success? What is the agreed target? What happens when we miss? Agreements replace expectations. Expectations create frustration. Agreements create alignment. Leading Indicators vs. Lagging Indicators Lagging indicators: Closings, GCI, volume Leading indicators: Conversations, appointments set, follow-up activity You can't control closings. You can control conversations. John's breakdown: Conversations → Appointments Set → Appointments Met → Agreements Signed → Closings Reverse engineer your goals down to conversations per hour. The Conversations Per Hour Framework This was one of the most tactical moments of the episode. Instead of asking: "How many conversations per day?" Ask: "How many conversations per hour?" Then reverse engineer: How many conversations does it take to set one appointment? How many appointments does it take to sign a client? How many signed clients does it take to close one deal? How many hours per week must be dedicated to outbound activity? When you know this math, success becomes predictable — not accidental. The "Protein, Carbs, and Fats" Principle Borrowed from Blake Sloan: Protein = Conversations Carbs = Appointment Asks Fats = Face-to-Face Meetings You can hit your main metric and still fail if supporting metrics are ignored. One metric matters. But supporting behaviors matter too. Where to Start Don't try to fix everything. Focus on one priority per quarter. If you're spending significant money in one area (Zillow, PPC, mailers, client events), optimize that first. Clarity compounds. Chaos compounds faster. Resources Mentioned Simple Numbers, Straight Talk, Big Profits – Greg Crabtree Financial Intelligence – Karen Berman & Joe Knight Measure What Matters – John Doerr CSU Dashboard / CTE Business Tracking The Growth Centric – Systems Audit with Joel Perso John Kitchens Executive Coaching → JohnKitchens.coach Final Takeaway There are two major breakdowns in most small businesses: They don't know their financial numbers. They don't know how they're allocating their time. If you know your money and you know your time, you control your growth. If you don't — you're guessing. As Joel put it: "If you don't know your numbers, you don't know your business." And as John reinforced: "It's not conversations per day. It's conversations per hour." Measure what matters. Build agreements. Track leading indicators. Execute with clarity. That's how CEOs eliminate chaos.

If you've been told to cut carbs, cut sugar, eat less, and work out more to fix your PCOS fertility… this episode is for you. After seeing an IVF doctor's reel recommending carb elimination for PCOS, I had a lot to say because cutting carbs is not a sustainable or effective PCOS fertility strategy.

Most people don't get into trouble with desserts because of sugar. They get into trouble because of context. In this episode, Nate breaks down how he eats sweets, baked goods, and desserts without wrecking his energy, digestion, or body composition. This isn't rigid nutrition science or a fat loss "hack." It's a practical framework he follows about 70 percent of the time that works extremely well in the real world. You'll learn why eating dessert in isolation is the biggest mistake people make, how insulin really works as a nutrient traffic signal, and why pairing carbs with protein leads to very different outcomes than pairing carbs with fat. Using the green lights metaphor, Nate explains how carbs raise insulin, why insulin doesn't choose what gets stored, and how controlling what's already circulating in your body changes where those calories end up. The episode also covers the best times to eat dessert, including post workout and pre workout scenarios, plus what to do in worst case situations when dessert is happening no matter what. Nate outlines simple pairing strategies that reduce damage, improve recovery, and keep food from turning into a stressor. This episode is for anyone who wants to enjoy sweets without guilt, stop fearing carbs, and start eating like their body is a system instead of a morality test. Key topics covered: Why dessert itself isn't the problem The green lights metaphor for insulin and nutrient storage Why carbs plus fat is the worst pairing Why carbs plus protein works better Best and worst times to eat sweets The 70 percent rule for sustainable eating Carbs don't decide what gets stored. They decide how fast things move.

For years, endurance athletes have been told that eating low-carb is the key to becoming “fat adapted” and improving performance. That narrative was recently resurfaced in a high-profile review by Tim Noakes — but does it actually hold up when we zoom out? In this episode, I break down the Noakes narrative review, explain what the science does and does not show about fat oxidation, and clarify a critical point that often gets missed:

Learn exactly how to set your protein, carbs, and fats for muscle building and fat loss using a flexible approach that works long-term: witsandweights.com/macros--Do carbs make you fat?Are spikes in blood sugar and insulin a problem for health or weight loss?Maybe you've been cutting carbs or tried keto or carnivore, yet your strength training progress has stalled, your recovery feels sluggish, and you're still not seeing the body composition results you want. The problem isn't your discipline. It's a fundamental misunderstanding of what insulin actually does (especially if you lift weights).Insulin is not a "fat-storage hormone" but a nutrient-partitioning hormone whose effects depend entirely on context: your training status, muscle mass, and energy balance. Learn how resistance training changes the way your body handles carbs, why lifters over 40 actually benefit from strategic insulin spikes, and how muscle tissue acts as a "sink" for glucose that determines where your nutrients go. It's not about eating unlimited carbs but understanding why carb tolerance is built through strength training and how to use that to your advantage, and to stop fearing spikes in blood sugar.Whether you want body recomp, trying to build muscle while losing fat, or wondering why your low-carb diet isn't working despite consistent strength training, this episode gives you an evidence-based framework to rethink your nutrition strategy. Plus, get a simple post-workout protocol that can improve your next-day training performance.Timestamps0:00 - Why carbs and insulin don't automatically cause fat gain3:20 - How training context changes what insulin does with your food7:25 - The real reason lifters fear carbs (and why it's misguided)11:55 - What insulin actually does (nutrient partitioning explained)18:40 - How carbs support muscle building, recovery, and strength training performance24:20 - Fat loss and insulin (why energy balance matters more than spikes)29:20 - Acute insulin spikes vs. chronic dysfunction (the critical difference for body recomp)

If not replenished, your stores become depleted, and your body has to make the shift to using fat for fuel." "Carbs from whole food sources that have all of their fiber and nutrients intact typically have a pretty low glycemic index."

Lauren joined me to chat about how she and her colleagues have been working to make eating disorder treatment less fatphobic, because, yes, that really needed to happen. We also get into why it's feeling harder than ever to treat eating disorders, or live with one, in this era of RFK, Jr., MAHA and GLP-1s. Plus what to do if your child is hiding food, lying or otherwise showing signs of developing an eating disorder. When do you intervene?

Winter Storm & Business OperationsWe got slammed with a blizzard here in Arkansas, which is a bit of a different beast than what I'm used to from Minnesota because the infrastructure just isn't the same. Fortunately, the extra insulation and prep work I did on the pipes after they burst two years ago held up, and we didn't have any issues at the facility. Even though UPS wasn't running, we were still in on Monday packaging orders to make sure we didn't fall behind.Product & Event UpdatesRestocks: We are restocking Carnivore Cake Pop this Friday.Inventory Alert: The Primal Fudge tallow bricks are dwindling, so if you've been eyeing those, now is the time to jump on it.World Carnivore Month: We've seen a massive influx of orders for the Carnivore Bricks as people wrap up the month. I've been doing "meat and bricks" for three weeks now; I'm down over 5 pounds and feeling lean, though I'm looking forward to adding some variety back in soon.The Retreat: We have a mud run meatup/retreat coming up at the end of February. There are only two spots remaining, and we'll be closing registration two weeks prior.Bodybuilding: Registration is officially open for the Natural State Savages competition, which is about 33 weeks out.The Seed Oil & Research DebateI spent some time catching up on a recent debate involving Lane Norton regarding polyunsaturated fats and seed oils. Lane's stance—based on his meta-analysis of the research—is that when calories are equated and trans fats are removed, there isn't sufficient evidence to label seed oils like linoleic acid as uniquely deleterious. While I respect Lane's work in the bodybuilding space, my personal philosophy remains focused on eating as naturally and minimally processed as possible.We also touched on a new paper by Dr. Andrew Koutnik (with contributions from Dom D'Agostino and Tim Noakes) regarding carbohydrate loading for endurance. The research suggests that by not consuming exogenous carbs, the body may actually be more efficient at preserving stored muscle glycogen through fat oxidation. It's sparked a lot of derision online because it challenges the status quo, but I think it's vital to stay open-minded and willing to look past the five-second Instagram reels to get to the actual truth.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
