Dr. Vera Tarman sits down with Dr. Bart Kay—former professor of health sciences turned “nutrition science watchdog”—to unpack a big, practical question for people in recovery from ultra-processed food use: If sugar needs to go, what about other carbs? And where does dietary fat fit in? We explore Dr. Kay's perspective on the Randle (Randall) cycle, insulin resistance, mixed macro diets, seed oils, ketogenic/carnivore patterns, and real-world considerations for folks with sugar/UPF addiction who struggle to “moderate.” We also discuss staged change (don't flip your diet overnight), what “abstainer vs. moderator” can mean in food recovery, and how to keep any nutrition experiment aligned with your health team and your recovery plan. What we cover The “Randle cycle,” plain-English: why mixing higher carbs and higher fats may worsen metabolic friction, and why choosing one dominant fuel is central to Dr. Kay's model. Insulin resistance re-framed: why Dr. Kay views it as a protective cellular response (his position) and how that informs low-carb/carnivore advocacy. Carbs in recovery: “quit sugar” vs. “how low is low?”—Dr. Kay's thresholds (e.g., ≤50 g/day unlikely to cause problems in his view) and why many with UPF addiction do better with abstinence than moderation. Fats & satiety: why dietary fat often increases fullness cues; practical guardrails; “can you eat too much fat or protein?” Seed oils: Dr. Kay's strong critique of industrial seed oils and his inflammation concerns. Cholesterol worries on low-carb/carnivore: why lipid numbers may rise and how Dr. Kay interprets A1C and lipid changes (controversial; see note below). GLP-1s, metformin & meds: Dr. Kay's take on drug mechanisms vs. root-cause nutrition changes. Change management: why he recommends a 4–6 week ramp instead of an overnight switch to very low-carb/carnivore; supporting thyroid, energy, and the microbiome while you transition. Recovery lens: abstainer vs. moderator, harm-reduction steps when “only food will regulate,” and building a plan that supports mental health and addiction recovery. Key takeaways Abstinence can be a kindness. If you're a “can't moderate sugar” person, treating sugar/UPFs as an abstinence-worthy trigger can protect your recovery. Don't crash-diet your microbiome. If you're experimenting with lower-carb or carnivore, step down over 4–6 weeks with plenty of electrolytes, hydration, and support. Pick a lane with macros. In Dr. Kay's model, mixing higher carbs with higher fats is the most metabolically problematic; choosing one dominant fuel source may reduce friction. Numbers are data, not destiny. Lipids and A1C can shift on low-carb—interpret changes with a clinician who understands your whole picture (medical history, meds, symptoms, goals). Harm-reduction still counts. If full abstinence isn't feasible today: remove red-light foods first, shrink access, use “pause + plan” tools, and reach out before the binge. About our guest Dr. Bart Kay is a former professor of human physiology, nutrition, and vascular pathophysiology with teaching/research stints in New Zealand, Australia, the UK, and the US. He's consulted for elite sport and defense organizations and now educates the public on YouTube as a self-described nutrition myth-buster. One of his core topics is the Randle cycle and its implications for diet composition.

Fructose-Intoleranz, Carboloading, Recovery-Hacks und die Wahrheit über Supplements: Mit Roger Milenk (Squeezy) geht's um smarte Ernährung im Radsport – und meine eigenen Learnings aus der Praxis. Immer mehr Kohlenhydrate im Radsport – 120g, 150g, ja sogar 300g pro Stunde werden empfohlen. Doch ist das wirklich sinnvoll oder geht die Entwicklung in die völlig falsche Richtung? In dieser Folge spreche ich mit Roger Milenk, Inhaber von Squeezy Nutrition, über das Spannungsfeld zwischen Kohlenhydraten (Carbs), Fructose, Glucose, Darmverträglichkeit, Ultra-Strategien und meinen persönlichen Learnings in Sachen Ernährung & Supplements.
Most of us think protein is just about building muscle—but what if we've been getting it wrong all along? In this eye-opening episode, host Louisa sits down with Angelo Keely, co-founder and CEO of Kion, to uncover the real science behind protein, amino acids, and muscle health. Angelo explains why essential amino acids—not just protein—are the critical drivers of muscle maintenance, recovery, and even longevity. He breaks down the shocking truth about how different protein sources actually compare, why aging adults need more than the RDA suggests, and how supplements like amino acids can prevent muscle loss—even without exercise. Whether you're a midlife woman trying to protect bone density, an athlete looking for an edge, or simply someone who wants to age stronger—this is an episode you can't afford to miss. About the guest: Angelo is the co-founder and CEO of Kion, a lifestyle and supplement company built around optimizing health and energy through essential nutrients. With a lifelong passion for nutrition and performance, he's on a mission to educate people about the powerful science of amino acids and help them live stronger, healthier, and longer lives.

NBA superstar LeBron James recently went viral for a deadlift video that had the internet scratching its head. Was it bad form? Brilliant training? Or something else entirely? The Home Team is joined by Dr. Kelly Starrett to break down exactly what's happening, what we can learn from it, and how it ties into bigger conversations about training, injury prevention, and youth sports.From hot takes on LeBron's trainer's methods to why pro athletes train differently than the rest of us, we cover the nuances of performance training—and where the general public often gets it wrong. We also dig into the rise of Achilles injuries, how parents can act as “human performance directors” for their kids, and why sports are a non-negotiable for youth development.Episode Timestamps:0:00 Kelly joins the Home Team1:50 Questioning LeBron's trainer's qualifications3:40 Kelly's optimistic hot take6:00 BUT… he's doing couch stretch!7:01 Why pro basketball players train differently10:30 Critiquing the strength training world12:40 The gym is the safest place in the world—LeBron's goal isn't getting stronger14:22 The complicated rise of Achilles injuries18:14 Sometimes you just let people be20:10 Does CrossFit make athletes look non-athletic?24:50 The gym should serve the court, not the other way around26:30 High school sports demand more than ever27:50 Parents as untrained “human performance directors”30:00 The pay-to-play problem in youth sports31:02 The purpose of athletics33:17 Why kids should learn Olympic lifting36:44 MDV's World Bodysurfing Championship debut41:25 Carbs that help performance (fueling is key)49:55 It all depends on the sport and the athlete52:14 The “beard of wisdom” moment53:33 Could we do what they do at their age?Thanks for tuning in to the Jason Khalipa Podcast!

In today's episode I am discussing the hardships of losing fat loss. Many of us want the journey to be easy and didn't expect to have to sacrifice so many things. We have to understand that this is a temporary journey to get to where we want to be. We must learn to say no to certain things now to get the benefits we want down the road. If you always do what you've always done, how do you expect to get the things that you don't currently have.IG - micah_foreverfitBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/coach-micah-s-fit-project-podcast--5741147/support.

The quest for optimal running performance often leads us down paths of trendy supplements and one-size-fits-all nutrition plans. But what if the real secret lies in personalization? Dietitian and ultra-marathon coach Rachel Laymon cuts through the noise with evidence-based, practical advice on fueling strategies that actually work.Ever wondered how many carbs you should consume during an ultra? Rachel suggests starting with 90 grams per hour—but emphasizes this number should be tailored to your unique physiology. A 135-pound runner has dramatically different needs than someone weighing 205 pounds. This individualization extends to all aspects of nutrition, from pre-race routines (where some elite runners swear by Red Bull over coffee) to recovery protocols.Speaking of recovery, those post-run nutrition windows matter more than you might think. Rachel reveals that consuming protein within 30 minutes after finishing your run can dramatically improve recovery, yet many runners—especially morning runners—miss this opportunity as they rush to start their day. Similarly, proper electrolyte replacement through products like LMNT can be game-changing for performance and overall energy levels.Perhaps most surprising is Rachel's emphasis on strength training as a non-negotiable component of running success. With adults losing 3-8% of muscle mass every decade after age 30, even one strength session weekly can yield significant benefits. She offers practical advice for beginners and time-crunched athletes on how to incorporate effective strength work without overwhelming your schedule.Ready to move beyond trendy supplements like sodium bicarbonate and focus on evidence-based approaches that actually improve performance? This episode provides a roadmap for developing an individualized nutrition and training strategy that supports both your running goals and long-term health.

This show starts with Ray's visit to his favorite record store and the oddball albums he picked up. After the music talk the boys covered S100 Engine Brightener for car use, and the problems associated with the IDIDIT column going into the GTO. Borgeson parts get the nod, as well as a repair solution for a MATCO ratchet wrench. A strange headlight issue on a '66 Mustang has the guys doing some seat of the pants diagnostics, as does an EVAP issue on Chris' car.

Have you found yourself standing in your kitchen after another "failed" diet day, staring down that bag of chips, feeling like you've lost control again? The guilt, the frustration, the voice in your head saying "Why can't I just stick to it?"Stop. You are NOT broken.We see this story play out with our clients over and over again. They spend years trapped in the exhausting cycle of cutting carbs, losing a few pounds, then gaining it all back (plus more). They feel tired, cranky, and defeated - convinced they're just destined to struggle with weight loss forever (plus a growing list of other health problems, too.) But here's what we discovered that changes everything: Your body NEEDS carbs to burn fat effectively. When you cut them out, you're literally fighting against your biology.But here's the thing: When we stop restricting and started nourishing our bodies with the right kinds of carbs, the result is happily losing weight and gaining the energy that's needed to fully enjoy life. No more lost moments. No more saying "I can't" to the things you want to do. No more regrets. Together Jarrod and I have personally lost over 75 pounds and kept it off for years - all while eating the exciting, delicious WFPB meals that we love, and that love our bodies back. In this latest podcast episode, we're exposing the biggest lie in weight loss and sharing the exact strategy that helped us break free from diet prison forever. This isn't another quick fix - it's enjoyable, sustainable weight loss that works WITH your body, not against it.Friend, you deserve to feel energized, confident, and free to live your God-given calling. ❤️ Your people are waiting for you! And we're here to show you exactly how to get your body to the place where you can fully show up for them. Ready to finally end the diet cycle for good, feel good, and fully live your dreams?
