Obesity increases Alzheimer's risk by altering how fat-derived vesicles communicate with the brain, causing amyloid proteins to misfold and form toxic plaques that damage neurons and impair cognition Specific lipids from obese individuals, including sphingolipids and ceramides, create oxidative stress in brain cells, reduce mitochondrial energy production, and accelerate the formation of sticky amyloid aggregates Excessive fat consumption promotes Alzheimer's development, though balanced, controlled intake at lower concentrations helps inhibit amyloid aggregation and reduce disease risk Leptin resistance from obesity prevents this protective hormone from reaching the brain, disabling the cleanup process that normally breaks down amyloid proteins while worsening inflammation and cognitive decline Cellular health restoration requires eliminating four key factors — excess linoleic acid from vegetable oils, endocrine-disrupting chemicals, electromagnetic fields, and endotoxins in the gut
Imaginez ceci : votre cerveau et votre intestin discutent en coulisses, comme deux partenaires secrets. Lorsque vous imposez une période de jeûne intermittent à votre corps, cette conversation change. C'est exactement ce qu'a révélé une étude publiée en décembre 2023 dans Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, menée sur 25 personnes obèses suivant un programme de restriction énergétique intermittente durant deux mois.Premier effet insoupçonné : le cerveau se réorganise. Les chercheurs ont utilisé l'IRM fonctionnelle pour observer l'activité de certaines régions. Résultat : les zones impliquées dans le contrôle des envies, la gestion des émotions et la perception de la nourriture voient leur activité diminuer. Le gyrus frontal orbital inférieur (lié au contrôle), le putamen (lié à l'apprentissage et à l'émotion) et le cortex cingulaire antérieur s'apaisent progressivement. Cela signifie que le jeûne intermittent ne modifie pas seulement le comportement alimentaire : il transforme la façon dont le cerveau réagit à la nourriture et au contrôle de soi.Deuxième effet étonnant : l'intestin change lui aussi. Le microbiote intestinal évolue vers un profil plus favorable. Les chercheurs ont observé une diminution d'Escherichia coli, souvent associée à un état inflammatoire, et une augmentation de bactéries bénéfiques comme Faecalibacterium prausnitzii, Parabacteroides distasonis et Bacteroides uniformis. Le jeûne intermittent semble donc remodeler la flore intestinale, améliorant potentiellement l'environnement métabolique de l'organisme.Troisième effet, et non des moindres : ces deux phénomènes sont liés. L'étude montre que les variations de certaines bactéries intestinales évoluent en parallèle des modifications d'activité de certaines régions du cerveau. C'est l'illustration directe de l'axe intestin-cerveau : un réseau de communication complexe où l'intestin influence le cerveau (via le nerf vague ou des métabolites), tandis que le cerveau, en retour, influence l'écosystème intestinal.Ce qui rend cette étude particulièrement originale, c'est son approche dynamique : les chercheurs n'ont pas observé seulement un « avant/après », mais la manière dont les changements apparaissent au fil du temps. Certaines bactéries bénéfiques augmentent fortement au milieu du protocole, puis reviennent presque à leur niveau initial à la fin, montrant que ces effets sont adaptatifs, peut-être transitoires.En résumé : le jeûne intermittent n'agit pas uniquement sur le poids. Il modifie l'activité cérébrale dans des circuits essentiels, transforme le microbiote intestinal et révèle un dialogue étroit entre l'intestin et le cerveau. Ces résultats, encore préliminaires, suggèrent que jeûner revient à réécrire, même temporairement, la manière dont votre cerveau et votre intestin se parlent. Une perspective fascinante pour comprendre le lien entre alimentation, cognition et santé. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.
“I think what I've discovered in the last few years is that you can be doing everything right on the energetic side of things.” • Feeling like it is the end when you have one embryo left or one last IVF transfer • Obsessing over fertility numbers and treating them like destiny • Subconscious gender stories, boy mom identity and beliefs about women • Spirit babies, soul contracts and staying grounded in your own joy • Cellular health, frequency and trusting fertility as innate • Nervous system safety, emotional release and facing hard feelings instead of staying positive • False surrender, discipline as self love and choosing to live your life while TTC “Those are just stories we're making up.” Hello Beautiful, Monica here supporting you to become the conscious mama you were born to be… In this intimate, behind the scenes coaching session, we walk into the tender place so many women land on this journey. The place where you are staring at your labs, your age, your one embryo left and your brain is screaming, this is the end. I share how I went into my own last frozen embryo transfer with the twins convinced it was my final shot, miscarried, and truly believed I would only have one child. Looking back with the eyes I have now, I can see how much of that was a story, a protection pattern and a total disconnect from the truth that fertility lives in your cells, not in your fear. We explore gender anxiety, boy versus girl stories, and the sneaky subconscious beliefs many of us carry about women, mothers and ourselves. I talk about growing up with a deeply masculine mother, realizing I subconsciously thought all women were bitches, and why my mentor once told me I literally could not hold the woman frequency yet. We fold in spirit babies, soul contracts, and the very human temptation to outsource our power to readings instead of doing the unsexy work of cellular health, nervous system safety, emotional healing and actual joy. If you are tired of trying to stay positive, secretly terrified of another failed transfer, or spinning in false surrender while saying you have “let it go,” this conversation is your loving interruption. You will hear practical tools, real stories and a deeply truthful reframe that might finally let your shoulders drop and your heart exhale. Press play if you are ready to believe that this is not the end and that your baby is far more interested in your frequency than your perfection. “Anyways, that's why it's all about you. The baby doesn't want anything. It wants the same frequency, so coming home to yourself is the best thing you can do.” Timestamps 00:00 - When you are doing everything right energetically and still stressed before IVF 02:51 - Thinking this is the end after loss and why those stories are not the full truth 10:21 - Boy mom identity, feminine wounds and subconscious beliefs about women 17:57 - Spirit baby readings, soul contracts and not outsourcing your power 26:36 - Facing hard emotions instead of forcing positivity before an IVF transfer 32:45 - Written in the stars, miscarriage guilt and what really affects pregnancy 36:29 - Client story of failed IVF, natural conception and releasing TTC timelines “This is just a chapter. It is not the end. I'm done trying to conceive. I'm going to live my life.” Full Transcript Over on the Blog: https://www.findingfertility.co/blog/one-embryo-left-ivf-transfer-anxiety-spirit-babies-letting-go-of-fertility-numbers-as-destiny Let's Do This Together

In this episode, Ben Azadi reveals the real reason aging accelerates after 40 and the free 10-minute ritual that reverses visible aging from the inside out. Instead of creams, injections, or prescriptions, Ben explains how activating your body's natural nitric oxide (NO) production can restore youthful energy, boost fat-burning, improve collagen, sharpen the brain, and recharge your mitochondria. Ben breaks down what nitric oxide is, why production drops up to 60 percent by your 40s, and how this decline leads to wrinkles, fatigue, stubborn belly fat, and poor sleep. He shares his personal 10-minute Nitric Oxide Activation Protocol:• A 4-minute nitric oxide dump workout• A 3-minute sunlight + nasal breathing reset• A 3-minute grounding + “Vitamin G” gratitude practice He also shows how this routine dramatically improved his HRV, sleep, and readiness scores using his Oura Ring. Guest expert Dr. Nathan Bryan, one of the world's leading nitric oxide researchers, explains exactly how NO controls blood flow, cellular energy, mitochondrial function, longevity, and disease prevention. Ben then expands the protocol with two powerful add-ons:• 20-second sprints to boost human growth hormone by up to 450 percent• Red light therapy (photobiomodulation) to increase ATP, collagen, and nitric oxide signaling He closes with a rapid-fire Q&A about blood pressure, age 60+, sauna vs. cold plunge, combining stacks, and timing. This episode gives you everything you need to restore youthful biology — naturally, quickly, and without spending anything. FREE GUIDE: Better Than Ozempic - https://bit.ly/3LV3yEh

What if aging wasn't something that just happens to us, but something we could actively influence at the cellular level? In this eye-opening episode of the Metabolic Freedom Podcast, Ben Azadi sits down with Chris Burres, co-founder of MyVitalC, to explore the breakthrough science behind ESS-60, a powerful molecule that may help slow aging and boost mitochondrial energy. Chris shares the fascinating story of how this compound came out of Nobel Prize-winning research and how it is now changing lives with improvements in sleep, inflammation, energy, brain clarity, and overall vitality. Together, Ben and Chris break down the research behind oxidative stress, HRV, inflammation markers like HS-CRP, and the surprising week-by-week results users are experiencing. This conversation is a deep dive into longevity science, metabolic resilience, and what is possible when we support our mitochondria — the tiny engines fueling every cell in the body. You will walk away inspired to rethink what aging means, support your body at the cellular level, and take steps toward living younger, longer.

In this episode, I explore the critical role of cellular hydration as the foundational first step in the seven naturopathic steps to treatment to optimise health. Join me as I talk about why proper hydration goes far beyond just drinking water, how chronic dehydration impacts inflammation, hormone balance, and fertility at the cellular level, and the three progressive stages to restoring optimal hydration in your body. I'll unpack the science behind cellular hydration, explain why your cholesterol might actually be a dehydration response, and provide insights and actionable tips to help you build the foundation your body needs to reduce inflammation, support hormone balance, and optimise your fertility journey. A number of actionable tips were discussed including how to recognise signs of chronic dehydration, which foods and drinks are secretly dehydrating you, the proper omega-3 to omega-6 ratio for reducing inflammation, how to implement the three-stage hydration protocol, and why you should consider taking a break from supplements while you establish proper hydration.

Developing strong, lifelong social bonds helps slow biological aging by influencing how your genes, immune system, and stress hormones function People with higher "cumulative social advantage," meaning consistent emotional support throughout life, show younger cellular profiles on aging clocks like GrimAge and DunedinPACE Those with rich social connections have lower levels of inflammatory markers such as interleukin-6 (IL-6) and C-reactive protein (CRP), reducing the risk of heart disease, diabetes, and neurodegeneration Social isolation not only accelerates aging but also contributes to nutrient deficiencies, with lonely older adults showing lower intake of magnesium, potassium, vitamins B6 and C, and folate Rebuilding connection, such as through community, shared meals, and meaningful daily interactions, restores biological balance, lowers inflammation, and supports longer, healthier living

The diet world loves extremes - and keto might be one of the most polarizing. In this episode, Dani Hamilton, blood sugar and circadian health expert, cuts through the noise to bring nuance back to the keto conversation.You'll learn why keto isn't a diet or lifestyle - it's a metabolic state - and why that distinction changes everything. Dani explains when ketosis is beneficial, how to enter it safely, and why staying there forever can backfire on your thyroid, hormones, and metabolism.She also shares real client stories from her Blood Sugar Mastery program and breaks down how to use ketosis as a powerful healing tool - seasonally, strategically, and in sync with your biology.Whether you've tried keto before or are just curious if it could help with your energy, cravings, or hormones, this episode will help you understand when keto works, when it doesn't, and how to use it intelligently.Book a call with me to learn more about the program: https://calendly.com/daniellehamiltonhealth/discoverycallSTAY IN TOUCH WITH ME:

Welcome back to Beautifully Broken, where healing meets high performance. Today, we're going deep with Dr. Chris Shade, founder of Quicksilver Scientific, the mind behind many of the world's most advanced detox and hormone technologies. Together, we explore how inflammation, leaky gut, and energetic stagnation are connected — and how the next generation of liposomal and peptide therapies are helping people heal from the inside out.Dr. Shade walks us through the power of BPC-157 and KPV to seal the gut lining and reset the body's inflammatory loops, the surprising role of parasites in emotional and energetic patterns, and why the extracellular matrix may be the true “organ of communication” that keeps every system aligned. We also break down his revolutionary sublingual testosterone — a delivery method that mimics the body's natural rhythm instead of suppressing it.From quantum biology to spiritual integration, this episode is a masterclass in cellular intelligence and conscious healing. Whether you're dealing with chronic illness, burnout, or simply want to age better, this one is for the note-takers, biohackers, and seekers ready to reclaim the body's original blueprint.

Will artificial intelligence robots have subjective experience? What are the ethical and safety implications of such entities? Which quantum physics theory can accommodate consciousness?In this episode we have the extraordinary possibility of subjective experience and feelings in artificial intelligence robotic systems to think about. So we look at experiments to try and prove if it's even possible; the quantum building blocks from which both living and artificial systems are made up; the ethical and safety implications of advanced intelligence instantiated in robots, and we get into the controversial search for a quantum physics theory that can accommodate consciousness.Fortunately, my guest today is not only one of the first pioneering scientists to really devote themselves to the creation of sentient human-similar robot minds and bodies, but is also an experimental physicist working with quantum computing systems. She is of course the quantum engineer, consciousness researcher and AI computer scientist Suzanne Gildert. She has written over 80 scientific papers, founded several successful AI companies and has dozens of US patents for her inventions.

In this episode, Ben Azadi reveals one of the most powerful healing and fat-burning tools he's ever used — the 36-hour dry fast. By removing both food and water, you activate your body's innate intelligence and turn stored fat into metabolic water, triggering deep autophagy, hormone balance, and complete cellular renewal. Ben breaks down the hour-by-hour timeline of what happens during a dry fast — from digestion shutdown and insulin drop, to stem-cell activation and dopamine reset. You'll learn how to prepare safely, when to fast, and how to break it properly for maximum healing. Key benefits: 3x more autophagy than a water fast Massive fat-burning and HGH surge (up to 2000%) Gut and immune reset Cellular cleanup and stem-cell regeneration Emotional clarity and dopamine balance Use this tool wisely — it's not a lifestyle, it's a powerful metabolic reset.

What if your body is learning things your mind doesn't know? What if memory wasn't just something that our brain has?Episode Summary On this episode, I'm exploring a bold idea with neuroscientist Dr Nikolay Kukushkin: memory doesn't just live in the brain. It might be a basic property of life itself. We unpack how scientists define memory (behavioural change over time) versus how the rest of us use the word, and why that distinction matters—from sea slugs to kidney cells. I ask the “muscle memory” question we all carry, and we separate the metaphor from the biology: your basal ganglia automate behaviours, but your muscle cells do literally adapt to patterned use.We go deep on “patterns.” Nikolay's work shows that even non-neural cells can detect minute-scale timing differences—preferring spaced pulses over a single crammed dose. That has huge implications for learning, exercise, nutrition, and even medicine; it suggests timing might be as important as quantity. We also talk about sleep as essential “synaptic housekeeping,” why false memories are an adaptive feature (not a failure), and what it really means to “run out of memory” in our overstimulated world.Finally, we tilt at the big questions: how consciousness might have evolved, why Plato's model of perception eerily echoes today's top-down/bottom-up neuroscience, and what AI still lacks—learning patterns in time within an embodied world. If you've ever crammed for an exam, worried about forgetting your own name, or wondered what your cells are quietly learning from your daily routines, this one will rewire how you think about memory.Guest Biography — Dr Nikolay KukushkinDr Nikolay Kukushkin is a Clinical Associate Professor at NYU. His book One Hand Clapping: Unraveling the Mystery of the Human Mind traces how consciousness emerged from the natural world; the original Russian edition won the Enlightener (Prosvetitel) Award and the Alexander Belyaev Medal.His recent research (Nature Communications, Nov 2024) showed that non-neural human cells display the classic “spacing effect,” suggesting memory-like temporal patterning beyond the brain.AI-Generated Timestamped Summary [00:00:00] Cold open: reframing memory as cellular, not just neural. [00:01:00] Scientists' definition of memory vs everyday usage. [00:03:00] From behaviour change to cellular change; beyond “plugging a muscle into a brain.” [00:05:00] All cells have experiences; “pattern matters.” [00:06:00] Muscle memory: basal ganglia automation vs literal muscle adaptation. [00:07:00] Shared molecular machinery: “use it or lose it” in brain and muscle. [00:08:00] Nikolay's path: from molecules to minds; bottom-up neuroscience. [00:09:00] Protein quality control: molecular barcodes and cellular “conversations.” [00:11:00] Why sea slugs: short path from molecules to behaviour. [00:13:00] Hypothesis leap: if single neurons learn from pulses, could kidney cells? [00:14:00] The experiment: four 3-min pulses vs one 12-min pulse (spacing wins). [00:16:00] What's uniquely neural: synapses and specific connectivity; where salience arises. [00:19:00] Memory without awareness; non-neural systems can store patterns. [00:20:00] Applications: exercise, diet, medicine; timing as a lever. [00:23:00] The dark mirror: life as obsessive optimisation if we over-pattern. [00:24:00] Personal practice: being mindful of inputs, attention as filter. [00:26:00] Debunking “10% of the brain” and the sleep–memory link. [00:28:00] Sleep weakens synapses; deprivation leads to saturation and hallucinations. [00:30:00] The social-media “soup” analogy for saturated memory. [00:32:00] Names, identity and rehearsal; de-naming as degradation. [00:33:00] Reconsolidation: why false memories are a feature we need. [00:34:00] 9/11/Challenger studies: how memories drift with time. [00:36:00] Ebbinghaus and the spacing effect across species and systems. [00:39:00] Cramming vs spacing: initial strength and decay rates. [00:41:00] The forgetting curve and why “more” can decay slower in memory. [00:42:00] “My whole life is one big experiment on my brain.” [00:43:00] Practical “tip”: fix attention first; follow interest, not force. [00:45:00] Attention economy and selective inputs as memory hygiene. [00:48:00] From smoking to scrolling: a future of information hygiene. [00:50:00] One Hand Clapping: why it feels special to be you. [00:54:00] Plato's “two fires”: ancient echoes of top-down/bottom-up perception. [00:58:00] Intuition as hidden associations; LLMs as an analogy. [01:00:00] AI: excitement, unease, and the risk of outsourcing humanness. [01:03:00] What AI lacks: learning patterns in time without a body. [01:05:00] Close and thanks.

Leveling Up: Creating Everything From Nothing with Natalie Jill
What if the reason you can't lose weight, feel exhausted, and struggle with inflammation has nothing to do with your diet or exercise routine – but with zombie cells lurking in your body? In this game-changing episode, I sit down with Dan Pardi, Chief Health Officer at Qualia Life, to uncover the hidden world of cellular senescence and why these "zombie cells" might be sabotaging your health without you even knowing it. We dive deep into how damaged cells that refuse to die are creating chronic inflammation, accelerating aging, and potentially blocking your body's ability to heal itself. Dan reveals the shocking connection between your circadian rhythm and cellular aging, why your immune system stops clearing these problematic cells as you age, and the breakthrough science of senolytics that's revolutionizing how we approach healthy aging. Plus, I share the incredible story of how addressing zombie cells transformed my friend's decades-long battle with endometriosis – and why this might be the missing piece in your own health puzzle.

This week, I'm taking you inside a sauna and cold plunge gathering that sparked a much deeper reflection on electrolytes, minerals, and what it really means to be charged — physically, emotionally, and energetically.We've all heard “just add salt to your water,” but in this episode, I unpack why electrolytes aren't one-size-fits-all and how your unique mineral balance determines whether a sauna session feels nourishing or totally depleting. I'll walk you through the physiology — the demand and supply of energy during heat stress, how ATP and minerals drive your cellular voltage, and why the nervous system depends on that charge to stay calm and focused.You'll also hear why I don't recommend relying on electrolyte packets long term, what real mineral repair looks like, and how this foundation impacts your emotional regulation, executive function, and even your ability to embody your astrology chart. Because when your body is properly charged, you can actually express your full potential — physically, mentally, and spiritually.If you've ever left a sauna session feeling wiped out, anxious, or “off,” this episode will help you understand what your body's trying to tell you — and how to turn practices like sauna and sweating into tools for restoration, not depletion.

In this powerful episode of The Birth Lounge Podcast, HeHe sits down with infectious disease scientist, Ellie to pull back the curtain on what's really behind vaccines, immunity, and medical ethics. After years working in big pharma, Ellie began questioning what she saw from the inside, and now she's here to help parents unpack the complex, often confusing world of vaccine science through an evidence-based, transparent lens. Together, HeHe and Ellie dive into everything from the ingredients found in common vaccines (and why they're there!) to the differences between live and attenuated viruses. They also explore the ethics of vaccine research, including the use of fetal cell lines, vaccinated vs. unvaccinated clinical trials, and how informed consent fits into modern medicine. This conversation isn't about fear, it's about facts. It's about asking better questions, understanding your options, and feeling confident in the choices you make for your family's health. Ellie brings scientific clarity, a refreshing dose of honesty, and a deep respect for parental autonomy to this nuanced conversation. If you've ever wanted a clearer understanding of vaccines and the ethics behind them, this episode is a must-listen. 03:27 Announcing the New Course: Pushing Out Your Big Ass Baby 05:34 Vaccine Exploration Series Finale 06:19 Ingredients in Vaccines: What You Need to Know 07:35 Interview with Infectious Disease Scientist Ellie 12:11 Ellie's Journey from Big Pharma to Vaccine Skepticism 40:44 Ethical and Scientific Concerns in Vaccine Development 01:02:33 Pharmaceutical Interactions and Clinical Trials 01:04:28 Autonomy and Vaccine Mandates 01:05:17 Herd Immunity and Vaccine Efficacy 01:06:38 Transparency and Trust in Healthcare 01:15:49 Ethics of Vaccine Studies 01:19:12 Challenges in Scientific Research 01:23:55 Vaccine Ingredients and Allergies 01:26:42 Live vs. Attenuated Vaccines 01:29:49 Shingles and Vaccine History 01:33:43 Scientific Communication and Public Trust 01:43:08 Final Thoughts and Resources Guest Bio: Ellie is an infectious disease scientist with a powerful personal story and a passion for making science accessible. With a B.S. in Cellular and Molecular Biology and an M.S. in Infectious Diseases and Microbiology, Ellie has spent years on the front lines of science—from developing vaccines for potential bioweapons during her graduate research to working in assay development and infectious disease research within the pharmaceutical industry. Four years ago, she made the bold decision to step away from pharma and pursue a path that blends science, personal experience, and public education. Ellie was born with a left radial clubbed hand, congenital heart issues, and other challenges caused by a pharmaceutical product—an experience that has shaped her unique perspective on medicine. After undergoing countless surgeries, she deeply understands the life-saving value of western medicine, while also recognizing that alternatives can have a place in care. Ellie now dedicates herself to helping people understand complex scientific topics so they can make empowered, informed health decisions. She believes that her journey—both scientific and deeply personal—is no accident. Through all the challenges she has faced, she's seen the hand of Jesus guiding her path and believes God has kept her alive for a greater purpose.

QUOTES “Other things we saw in that study were improvements in things like inflammatory markers, which we know chronic inflammation is a huge issue as we start to get older. We saw specifically C-reactive protein was lowered, and we saw other markers of muscle health that, while they didn't make statistical significance, they were trending that way.” “It stays very potent and very localized– a benefit to the skin. So you're having that same cellular turnover of the mitochondria, basically making the mitochondria in your skin act in a more youthful way.” “Even just after 2 weeks, we start to see improvements that are visibly noticeable. And then when we take that out to 8 weeks, it's statistically significant improvements in wrinkle reduction and in wrinkle depth. So, [it's] really powerful but gentle.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Get your free VIP ticket to the Perimenopause Solution event https://hayh.site/pr_bl_ap-snyder_a_snyder Order Mitopure (Urolithin A) at Timeline HERE with discount code ENERGIZED for 20% off your purchase! https://timeline.com/ENERGIZED Timeline on Instagram Jen Scheinman on Instagram RELATED EPISODES 663: From Wired and Tired to Calm and Energized: The GABA-Mitochondria Connection + How to Fix It at the Cellular Level with Dr. Scott Sherr #653: Mitochondria, Menopause & Metabolism: The Cellular Secret to More Energy After 40 with Dr. Felice Gersh #623: Red Light Therapy for Upgrading Your Mitochondria, Cellular Energy, Skin and Brain Health with Jonathan Otto 595: How to Master Your Metabolism and Reverse Cellular Aging in Midlife + My Best Tips to Thrive with Dr. Mariza
