Despite a successful career, with numerous patented ingredients and a bestselling biohacking book, Shawn reveals that his accomplishments were once tied to conditional love and recognition. It was during his first psychedelic journey that he realized he was worthy of unconditional love. This epiphany became the cornerstone of his transformation. The Turning Point: Embracing Psychedelics Inspired by thought leaders like Tim Ferriss and Dave Asprey, Ben Greenfield Shawn ventured into the psychedelic realm. His first experience, facilitated by Tah and Kole, was both terrifying and enlightening. Surrounded by warmth and acceptance, Shawn experienced a profound shift—learning he could be loved simply for being himself. Integration: The Ongoing Process The psychedelic experience was a catalyst, but Shawn emphasizes the importance of integration. Post-ceremony efforts involved distancing from unsupportive relationships, embracing conscious uncoupling, and reevaluating career choices. These changes, along with ongoing self-work and facilitated sessions, helped Shawn develop deeper relationships and inner peace. Science Meets Spirituality: Enhancing Experiences As a formulator, Shawn began exploring how supplements could augment psychedelic journeys. By focusing on brain health and neuroplasticity, he developed stacks that aid in pre and post-journey integration. Parazanthine, a caffeine metabolite, is one such compound that supports cognitive function and energy without the typical side effects of caffeine. Creating Safe Spaces: The Role of a Facilitator Shawn's journey highlights the value of skilled facilitation in processing trauma and enhancing psychedelic experiences. He stresses the need for facilitators to create environments that promote safety and acceptance, allowing participants to explore their inner depths without fear. Evolving the Path: The Echo Dosing Concept Shawn introduces the concept of echo dosing—microdosing with elements of past transformative experiences to reinforce the gains made. By integrating sensory triggers like music and aromas from the original journey, individuals can deepen their integration and continue personal growth in their daily lives.

When you reach for that bottle of vitamin C or fish oil pills, you might wonder how well they'll work and if they're safe. People take these supplements to make sure they get enough essential nutrients and to maintain or improve their health. But not everyone needs to take supplements.   Here with us today is Biochemist, Dietitian and Formulator, Author of The ENERGY Formula, and Founding Partner of Ingenious Ingredient LP., Shawn Wells.

What fun to talk to Shawn Wells just following his appearance at the 2021 Sun Valley Wellness Festival in my hometown of Sun Valley, Idaho. Shawn was part of a panel discussion exploring the healing benefits of plant medicines. Our interview covers some philosophical insights that undoubtedly connect his time in Sun Valley with his fantastic recent book, The Energy Formula. You'll hear that the structure for The Energy Formula came about through an almost magical process. ENERGY is an acronym that stands for Experiment, Nutrition, Exercise, Routine, Growth, and Your Tribe. The book is Shawn's magnum opus and incorporates hundreds of scientific citations. The book includes chapter summaries, shares a resources guide, and provides a “formulators corner” for each chapter. Shawn wrote- and rewrote- this book during the 2020 covid-19 pandemic. HIs creative endeavors allowed him to turn what was a very fearful and paralyzing situation (for many) into a process to help others. The interview yields 10 “mantras” that will allow you to navigate your life post-pandemic with more grace, health, and fun. Mantra #1: You can be your own best -and worst -critic. Shawn talks about how he balanced these inner voices to create the best version of his book. Mantra #2: You can only give to others from an overflowing cup. Make sure not to deplete your cup and practice self-care and self-acceptance. Mantra #3: Engage your inner child in your creative endeavors. Mantra #4: Consider taking “hustle,” grind,” even “work” out of your vocabulary; can you replace them with “ease,” “flow,” “fun.: and even “play”? Mantra #5: Using the above mantra, shift from “inner work” into “inner play”. Mantra #6: Chase your own “hell yeses”. Mantra #7: Communicating your own needs is essential to the healing process. Mantra #8: Grant yourself grace. Mantra #9: Get past the polarization in today's dialogue; release attachment to something being either “right” or “wrong”. Mantra #10: Release judgment and ask open-ended questions when presented with ideas that differ from your own.

Let's talk about optimizing nutrition to combat aging, disease, and weight management. Shawn starts the conversation by taking us through his path in deciding to leave the traditional medical and healthcare system, and use his expertise to provide guidance on truly experiencing longevity. Maybe, Salt, Fat, and Cholesterol are not as bad as we think it is? Shawn unveils the truths behind the research that proposes negative correlations with salt, fat, and cholesterol, in the context of hypertension, obesity, and heart disease respectively. While doing so, he hones in on the importance of natural, unprocessed, and whole foods. Moreover, Shawn addresses protein through concepts of muscle protein synthesis and insulin as a major contributor to protecting the body from sarcopenic obesity and age-related muscle loss. Particularly highlighting collagen and leucine, Shawn talks about different types, sources, and the importance of protein and collagen. Furthermore, Shawn addresses creatine and its anti-cancer, anti-aging, and performance-enhancing benefits. Finally, he mentions the association between blood sugar and diseases, and provides insight into his top 10 supplement list, emphasizing the significance of Vitamin D3 and K2, Magnesium, and Polyphenols.

Today, I am blessed to have Shawn Wells, MPH, LDN, RD, CISSN, FISSN join the show. He is a product formulator and expert in performance nutrition, longevity, fitness, and supplementation. He earned his master’s degree from UNC-Chapel Hill, where he studied nutritional biochemistry with a minor in exercise science. Shawn is a Registered Dietitian with a decade of experience as a Chief Clinical Dietitian in hospitals and skilled nursing facilities. He is also a Certified Sports Nutritionist and has worked with celebrity clients and professional athletes. On the road to being dubbed “The World’s Greatest Formulator”, Biohacktivitst, and Keto Authority, Shawn faced and overcame significant obstacles with his own health—weight issues, depression, autoimmune conditions (Epstein-Barr, Fibromyalgia, and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome), two cervical discs replacements, and a pituitary adenoma, which is a type of brain tumor. They say everything happens for a reason, and in Shawn’s case, his health problems led him down a winding path that required him to find science-based solutions, and they sparked his personal passion for biohacking. In this episode, Shawn Wells opens the show by diving straight into his story. After finding his passion for supplements, Shawn went through massive ups and downs to get him where he is today. Eventually, Shawn found keto, and the rest is history! He reveals the common mistakes that people make when first trying keto. Of course, we dig deep into supplements and talk about one of Shawn's favorites – dihydroberberine; it's a total game-changer. Tune in as we chat about Shawn's book and the importance of "exercise snacks."

Text me +1 (786) 364-5002 [00:40] About Shawn Wells And His Journey To Keto + Supplements Shawn went to business school because that’s what everyone else wanted him to do. Shawn ended up getting really into supplements. He would take supplements, work out and see all these changes in his body. Eventually, Shawn realized he needs to chase his dreams of being a formulator and working with athletes. So, Shawn told his counselor about his new dreams – he laughed at Shawn. Later that night, Shawn almost committed suicide because his dreams had been totally crushed. Eventually, Shawn got into his dream school and pursued his goals despite what his counselor told him. During this work, Shawn’s autoimmune system exploded; he had loads of issues. However, Shawn found keto, and it changed his life forever. [16:15] Common Mistakes That People Make When Trying Keto A lot of people try dirty keto by drinking diet sodas and using artificial sweeteners. Making your own keto desserts is another mistake. Also, many people think they can eat out and still eat keto. Shawn says he would try and eat Burger King while following the keto diet. Eating too much protein can be a mistake for people. Instead, think about eating more fat. That way, you feel full faster. The higher your ketones get, the more you will struggle to eat. If women can’t get into ketosis, Shawn says to try a period of strict keto. Down the road, you can play with net carbs. [23:20] Why Dihydroberberine Is A Total Game-Changer For Anti-Aging Metformin is the most powerful anti-aging agent that we have ever seen. People have been taking it for twenty years. In 90 days, people's biomarkers looked like there was an improvement of two years of longevity after using metformin. Dihydroberberine is the active metabolite of berberine. It is five to ten times more bioavailable. It doesn’t have the GI distress that metformin has. Plus, dihydroberberine lasts twice as long in the plasma. For keto and anti-aging, dihydroberberine is powerful!

In Shawn’s book, The ENERGY Formula, there’s a story about the importance of self-love and community. Shawn uses the word biohacking because people connect with it. However, Shawn knows there is no quick fix. We need a solid foundation of self-love and community. Then, we can use things for resilience and optimization. Find more ways to fall in love with yourself. That way, you can find your greatest potential. Get The ENERGY Formula: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08SCM7MHB/benazadi-20 [40:40] Shawn’s Favorite Benefits of “Exercise Snacks” (Sounds Great, Right?) Relationships are the number one predictor of longevity. Another predictor of longevity is grip strength. Take time to invest in your body. When you invest in your body, you have time for nutrition, meditation, and all these other things. A firm handshake will predict how long you live. The body in motion stays in motion. Find ways to exercise! Small exercises throughout the day have a greater impact on your health than one hour of exercise. Break up your periods of being sedentary with “exercise snacks.” AND MUCH MORE!

Human beings as a species have become easier to kill than ever before, and even the best biohacker on the planet is at risk right now. The reason for that is we’ve spent so much time leveling up our physical bodies that we’ve forgotten the most important part of our existence - our souls.   When we aren’t doing enough to nurture our mental and psychological well-being, it doesn’t matter how ‘ripped’ we are. Until and unless we can get to a point where we’re filled with nothing but love for ourselves, we’re only paving the way for perpetual unhappiness, and even health problems like inflammation.   The only problem is, getting to love ourselves is often easier said than done. Where do we even start? What can we do to nurture our souls the way we treat our bodies?   In this episode, the world’s leading nutritional biochemist and author of the brand new book, The ENERGY Formula, Shawn Wells shares his journey to self-love after years of neglect.    Three Takeaways  Why biohacking can only take us so far Biohacking has amazing benefits for our physical bodies, but without prioritizing our mental health, those advantages are only skin deep. Think of our inner game as the foundation for a better quality of life, and everything else as an add-on. How the ultra-masculinized world holds us back from just ‘being’ There’s absolutely nothing wrong with masculine energy, but much of our world is structured around the masculine habits of doing, grinding, and always being ‘on the go’. We have to have a balance between masculine and feminine energy so we can let go of the constant push and just flow. How to be happier NOW We put so much pressure on ourselves to reach our goals, and often we think we’ll be happy once we do. However, we need to stop chasing rainbows. We can embody who we want to be TODAY and claim it in advance.   Guest Bio-    Shawn Wells MPH, LDN, RD, CISSN, FISSN is the world’s leading nutritional biochemist and expert on Health Optimization.   He has formulated over 500 supplements, food, beverages, and cosmeceuticals and patented 10 novel ingredients and is now known as the Ingredientologist - the scientist of ingredients.

Improving your overall health and wellness is more than just what you eat and how much you move. Those pieces are important, but Shawn Wells joins me to talk about how optimal health also includes slowing down and supplementing well.   The Best Supplements to Take Vitamin D Berberine Curcumin CBD Vitamin C Polyphenols   About Shawn Wells Shawn Wells MPH, LDN, RD, CISSN, FISSN is the world’s leading nutritional biochemist and expert on Health Optimization. He has a Master’s degree in Nutrition and a minor in Exercise Science. He has formulated over 500 supplements, food, beverages, and cosmeceuticals and patented 10 novel ingredients and is now known as the Ingredientologist - the scientist of ingredients.  Formerly a Chief Clinical Dietitian with over a decade of clinical experience, he has counseled thousands of people on natural health solutions such as keto, paleo, fasting, and supplements.  Shawn has personally overcome various health issues including Epstein-Barr Virus, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Fibromyalgia, depression, insomnia, obesity, and a pituitary tumor.  As a world-renowned thought-leader on mitochondrial health, Shawn has been paid to speak on five different continents. His insights have been prominently featured in documentaries, nationally syndicated radio programs, and regularly on morning television. His expertise can help any health-conscious individual to better manage stress and experience higher performance and more energy through utilizing his practical research-backed solutions.   Testing Your Blood Markers Shawn Wells brings with him a wealth of information, much of it based on his own experience with health issues. His personal story is one we all need to hear to appreciate what he’s gone through and why he uses these experiences to fuel his future research and purpose. Shawn truly wants to help other people heal their health issues to live longer, fuller lives. Something Shawn recommends is to get your blood markers tested to determine your biological age. This is often drastically different from your chronological age and it is something you can impact with diet, exercise, and wellness routines. Along with this, Shawn discusses what your optimal blood markers should be. These markers are often different to what many medical professionals deem sufficient or “not deficient” but could still be causing you health problems.   Supplements and Slowing Down for Optimal Health Shawn recommends some of his favorite vitamins and supplements to take regularly in order to keep your body healthy. Most importantly, however, he talks about why everyone should increase their polyphenol intake to achieve optimal health.  Polyphenols exist in plant foods and are just packed with antioxidants. They can help with so many processes in our body, including improving our cardiovascular health, treating digestion issues, and helping to manage our weight. It’s not just supplements, diet, and exercise that Shawn recommends to achieve your optimal health. There are so many self-care practices that are essential to living your best life. Shawn explains how he does some intentional breathing exercises before he even gets out of bed in the morning to help retrain his thoughts and brain processes. Finally, Shawn’s top wellness tip is definitely for you to slow down and learn to enjoy life again. Not everything has to be go-go-go all the time. He takes inspiration from the lifestyle present in the blue zone, Sardinia, where people slow down for meals, eat whole foods, and enjoy good wine. Do you know any of your nutrient and hormone markers? What supplements have you already introduced to your routine? Let me know in the comments on the episode page.   Quotes “You either win or you learn. There’s no lose. You can drop all the regret. Everything has put you here right now. I feel so blessed for all the things that I’ve been through all the health issues, all the depression, the suicidal thoughts - all of it. Because I’m here, right now. It’s all served me to get here.” [12:52] “Berberine is an incredibly powerful compound. Everyone, and certainly all the 88%, should be taking this.” [29:45] “You can retrain your brain and just change the stories. If you don’t want to be the victim anymore, stop telling yourself stories where you’re the victim. Stop with the victim crap and start telling stories where you’re the hero. Start using that language with yourself. It’s time to be your own best advocate and best friend and start saying positive things.” [39:57] “The biggest shift for me was when I stopped hacking and hating myself and started loving myself and really doing these things with a different intent. Not trying to get more and level up, but just enjoying life. Put more life in my years than years in my life.” [55:21]   In This Episode How to check on your overall health picture to see what your biological age is [17:30] What the optimal markers of your labs are [20:30] Why berberine is the most important supplement you can take [26:00] Why you should increase your polyphenol intake [34:30] How to retrain your brain with breathing exercises [39:30] How slowing down and showing yourself self-love and care can calm your entire nervous system [47:00]   Links & Resources Beginners Guide: When And How To Supplement With Ketones Fasting: Is It Different For Women?

Happy Tuesday! Our favorite guest and the World's Greatest Formulator, Shawn Wells, joins us on National Keto Day to breakdown what Keto truly means and how it can be beneficial for overall health, if done correctly. Shawn Wells Wells is a Master of Public Health, Licensed Dietitian, Registered Dietitian, Certified Sports Nutritionist from the International Society of Sports Nutrition. He is also a Fellow of the International Society of Sports Nutrition. Shawn Wells is the world’s leading nutritional biochemist and expert on Health Optimization. He has formulated over 500 supplements and patented 10 novel ingredients. Formerly a Chief Clinical Dietitian with over a decade of clinical experience, he has counseled thousands of people on natural health solutions such as keto, paleo, fasting, and supplements.

Shawn’s expertise can help any health-conscious high achiever to better manage stress and experience higher performance and more energy through utilizing his practical wholistic solutions. National Keto Day What is the definition of diet? Scientifically, a diet is what you eat, but many people associate the word with restrictions. They think that a diet is a fast fix to a long term problem, but the fact is people don’t get unhealthy in a short period of time so they can’t recover from it quickly either. Diets might offer a quick outcome, but crash diets are physically and emotionally unhealthy. Taking your time while shifting nutrition means it’s also going to be far more long lasting and impactful. A better word for diet is lifestyle! The whole point of a ketogenic diet is to shift into a powerful metabolic state during which the body is burning primarily fat (as ketones are derived from fats). Keto is a powerful tool for easy weight loss—by crushing cravings, creating boundless energy, clearing through brain fog, supporting a healthy immune system, building unwavering resilience and much, much more. Keto Food Basics Eat fatty fish and seafood three times per week. Focus on healthy fats like good oils and things like avocados! Go the extra mile for pasture-raised, organic meat, dairy and eggs. They can make a world of difference. Load up on veggies! If you snack on crunchy veggies like carrots and cucumber slices you are less likely to reach for the chips. Keto, just like any other lifestyle, is about finding what works for you. There is no “one size fits all,” because lifestyle choices are like a compass—they might point you where you need to go, but you have to continually tune into your internal and external environment to get there.

Happy Tuesday! Happy Holidays! We are so lucky to have a full hour with Shawn Wells! Today, Shawn and Bernadette will be talking about avoiding holiday weight gain and affirming your health goals during the holidays! We here at One Life Radio are so excited! So let's get started! Shawn Wells Shawn Wells is a Master of Public Health, Licensed Dietitian, Registered Dietitian, Certified Sports Nutritionist from the International Society of Sports Nutrition. He is also a Fellow of the International Society of Sports Nutrition. Shawn Wells is the world’s leading nutritional biochemist and expert on Health Optimization.

Shawn’s expertise can help any health-conscious high achiever to better manage stress and experience higher performance and more energy through utilizing his practical wholistic solutions. Enjoying The Holidays Without Weight Gain Shawn's new book comes out April First! He pushed it back a bit to make sure it was perfect for the reader, chocked full of information that is life changing. Shawn wanted to make his new book less "scientific" and more laymen's terms for ease for the reader. Be reasonable on portion sizes. You CAN make healthier recipes for the holidays. You don't have to double down on double portions or sugary treats. Control is yours! You don't have to feed off your significant other's or families eating habits, but rather implement your own. Shawn gains weight during the holidays, but we all do. There is a certain amount that he will allow, but he has a cutoff. Shawn says don't let things get out of control. Shawn says eat until you're 80% full. But how do you know? When you are starting to "feel full," stop. You are actually full and will feel it in about 20-30 minutes. Alcoholic drinks, like many other drinks, contain calories that can add up quickly. Going out for a couple of drinks can add 500 calories, or more, to your daily intake. Most alcoholic drinks have little to no nutritional value. Be careful of your go-to drink! Bring your own healthy side dish. Your family typically doesn't know what regiment you're on to, i.e keto, etc. Avoid the guilt and shame and just bring your own side dish or dessert! Allow yourself the grace to enjoy some decadent treats but always be mindful. When you really enjoy the environment you're in and have the gratitude, Shawn says the food nourishes you differently.

We are delighted to have Shawn Wells joining us on the show today. Shawn is the world’s leading nutritional biochemist and expert on Health Optimization. He is also a biohacker, and he has formulated over 500 supplements, food, beverages, and cosmeceuticals. He has patented ten novel ingredients and, as such, has become known as the Ingredientologist - the scientist of ingredients.  Shawn became a biohacker and a formulator because he had health issues. He has managed to overcome various autoimmune problems, including Epstein-Barr Virus, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Hashimoto’s disease, and Fibromyalgia, which all hit him at once because he was going so hard. Those issues shut him down for six months, and in all of that time, he could not even get out of bed.  This year, Shawn stopped what he was doing, went inward, and started working with various therapies and doing plant medicine. As a result, everything changed for him.

He was overweight as a child and had low self-confidence. [6:25] Shawn's doctor, with words, helped Shawn chase down his dream of becoming a nutritionist. [7:00] A college guidance counselor crushed his dream, with words. Shawn almost killed himself afterwards. [11:15] Shawn was working 70-80 hours a weeke and got a brain tumor. [11:50] Shawn does carb cycling, but largely eats a ketogenic diet. Paleo, whole foods. Also he practices gratitude, meditation, uses saunas, and cold showers. He also works with therapists (including hypnotherapy). [14:20] "Everything happens for you and not to you, and I believe that." [16:25] Shawn describes how he got into the ketogenic diet (approximately 20 years ago). He did a lazy keto diet and still included some processed foods, so he doesn't consider it a perfect diet, but he still had a lot of success with it. [21:10] Shawn suffered from depression and he went from being overweight to being underweight and anorexic. [23:45] How have Shawn's physical health and mental health interacted?

[48:00] Are there any supplements that Shawn finds that are beneficial for a lot of people he works with? He lists off most of his Top 10 list and provides the reasons for each. Vitamin D3 (5000-10,000 iUs per day, with Vitamin K2) Berberine Fish oil (high DHA) Magnesium (especially magnesium glycinate) Creatine monohydrate Probiotics (also he mentions prebiotics and postbiotics) Vitamin C (liposomal) Alpha-GPC Active forms of B vitamins (like P-5-P and methylcobalamin) [58:20] Now that he's improved his health, what is one thing Shawn enjoys doing that he couldn't do before? [1:01:15] Shawn describes his book: The Energy Formula. It's about how to give yourself energy. ENERGY is an acronym. E = Experiment N = Nutrition E = Exercise R = Routines G = Growth Y = Your Tribe [1:04:40] Shawn Wells gives a closing message. "You don't need the pill. You have the power in your mind to change your life."

Happy Tuesday! Bernadette and Junior are so much fun together on air! Bernadette put up her own 15 foot Christmas tree by herself, she doesn't need no man! We are so excited to have Mo Brossette on at the half talking about stress. But first up, we have Shawn Wells talking about experimentation!

Shawn’s expertise can help any health-conscious high achiever to better manage stress and experience higher performance and more energy through utilizing his practical wholistic solutions. Biohacking Experimentation When trying experimentation, takes one thing at a time. Experimentation is the action or process of trying out new ideas, methods, or activities. New Years is coming up, so people think that they can implement new, healthier things all at once, but you don't know what's doing what to your body! Some things may be counter productive. Take the scientific method approach instead of the shotgun approach. Start one at a time, like in science, "make a hypothesis" and then go from there! Right down your data, just like you would in science and in business. Shawn says it is good at the beginning, but it also totally depends on the person, because sometimes focusing on the data can take you out of the here and now. Find out what works for you, and don't be afraid to switch up your routine! Mo Brossette Mo Brossette has been in the health and fitness industry for over 24 years, and he is currently the Director of Mindset and Nutrition at The Adaptive Training Foundation. The Adaptive Training Foundation is a Dallas based non-profit that leads disabled military veterans and civilians through a 9-week mental and physical training program called “Redefine”. Through this unique program, Mo helps these adaptive athletes overcome physical, emotional and mental pain, fear, and self-doubt. He is a corporate speaker on Fear and Human Potential, where he teaches companies and individuals how to achieve professional and personal goals, overcome limiting beliefs, and use fear as your greatest tool for success. You can find Mo here. Dealing With Holiday Stress No one can make you feel any way. Pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional. Mo Brosettte says to write down what you're grateful for every day! It takes 21 days to form a habit. Instead of turning on the news, or scrolling twitter, what if you wrote down what you were thankful for instead? Your brain starts to associate things that may suck, with gratitude. Set boundaries! If you have a family member that likes to start fights, political or otherwise, just get up and leave the room. Talk about something good, or nothing at all. Nothing good is going to talk about politics at all! Anything that makes you happy, do it. Thank You!

Shawn’s expertise can help any health-conscious high achiever to better manage stress and experience higher performance and more energy through utilizing his practical wholistic solutions. Emotional Eating Emotional Eating is when you're feeling depressed, angry, anxious, happy, and decide to eat through their emotions. Some people feel inadequate and say "screw it" and snack until they feel better. There are ways to eat through your emotions with our finishing a whole bag of pretzels, so don't worry. Your brain responds similarly to cocaine as it does sugar! Dopamine is released when we consume sugar, and we created a neuro super pathway. Reward circuitry, the cascade of neurotransmission in the brain that leads to the release of dopamine, is kicked off by any pleasurable experience. When you drink alcohol, you get led to more decadent treats and sweets, and before you know it, you've eating half a platter! You can overcome emotional eating! You must become aware, and you must be aware of your triggers. People, places, and things can all be triggers for you to eat the wrong foods! Come prepared when it comes to holiday eating. Bring the healthy dish, and have a plan for your own nutrition. Nootropics Nootropics are drugs, supplements, and other substances that may improve cognitive function, particularly executive functions, memory, creativity, or motivation, in healthy individuals. Some nootropics can be stimulants, so be sure to know which nootropic you are taking at what time to make sure to not inhibit sleep! Shawn's list of top ten nootropic ingredients include ALCAR, Alpha GPC, Rhodiola, Ashwagandha, Lion's Mane, B12, TeaCrine, Dynamine, C8 MCTs, and R-BHB. Bernadette's favorite is rhodiola! Click here to purchase Thorne Research's rhodiola product! We love Thorne! Shawn says that many products that include B12 actually have a cheap form of B12 that contains cyanide! These small doses won't kill you, but they will basically do nothing for your heath. Invest in a great B12 supplement that is already activated and great for your overall health and energy!

In this fascinating episode, Angela talks with Shawn Wells, product formulator and expert in performance nutrition, longevity, fitness and supplementation. Biohacker and Keto authority Shawn shares great insights into how to explore keto and find what works for you, the importance of fasting and optimising adaptogens to build resilience. He also explains why it’s so important to find your authentic self and grant yourself grace because we are all who we are meant to be and its adversity that brings inner strength and gratitude that brings impact and meaning to our lives.   KEY TAKEAWAYS There are many different ways to explore keto, there are no rules it’s all about you exploring you and what works for you. Ketones are a healthy alternate fuel source,  in the paleo period we would be have been metabolically flexible with 50% of our fuel ketones. With wholefoods you will feel less tired and fuller when you eat, you will be eating to live rather than living to eat. The discipline that comes with fasting can help in a variety of ways across all areas of your life. You have to be able to enjoy life and give yourself grace - eat healthily for 95% of the time and for the other 5% eat food that makes you happy. You should be looking to optimise your body and resilience through adaptogens. Mitochondria are the key to everyone’s health; ‘the next keto is mito’. Breathwork and gratitude will make an impact on your life. If 95% of your life is amazing you should be grateful and the 5% that isn’t so great is what gives you stronger resilience, empathy and compassion, it gives you the why in your life If we didn’t have adversity we wouldn’t have inner strength and purpose. Everything that happens is what gives you your why.   BEST MOMENTS ‘A ketogenic diet was my solution, it worked dramatically for me’ ‘Grant yourself grace, you are who you are meant to be and you are beautiful inside and out’ ‘You won’t feel owned by food anymore’   VALUABLE RESOURCES High Performance Health podcast series Transform your sleep DNA optimization  High Performance website  Shawn Wells website Ingredientologist Instagram      ABOUT THE GUEST   Shawn Wells MPH, LDN, RD, CISSN, FISSN is the world’s leading nutritional biochemist and expert on Health Optimization.

Happy Tuesday! It's raining cats and dogs here in Dallas, Texas! But that won't stop us from having a great show with jus Bernadette and Shawn Wells, so stick around! Shawn Wells Shawn Wells is a Master of Public Health, Licensed Dietitian, Registered Dietitian, Certified Sports Nutritionist from the International Society of Sports Nutrition. He is also a Fellow of the International Society of Sports Nutrition. Shawn Wells is the world’s leading nutritional biochemist and expert on Health Optimization.

Shawn’s expertise can help any health-conscious high achiever to better manage stress and experience higher performance and more energy through utilizing his practical wholistic solutions. Suicide Prevention Shawn once struggled with suicide. Shawn grew up in a chaotic home, where he was bullied daily. He kept his head down and worked on his studies, but tried to make people laugh whenever possible. After years of suffering, Shawn tried to take his own life. Bernadette points out that our own perception of ourselves is so powerful. We accept the ideas that are cast over us when we are children, but often forget our own paths. Shawn says there was never a huge paradigm shift in his life when he realized he needed to change his life, but instead a lot of little changes that added up to something big. Give yourself some space and remember to set boundaries. Also, don't forget to take a break whenever you start to feel overwhelmed. Whatever you were doing, it will still be there when you get back. Take some water out of your stress bucket. Resilience Shawn says that there is physical and mental resilience. You need both kinds of resilience to be strong from all angles! There is the idea of a stress bucket. You only have so much capacity for stress, so be careful that you don't fill up your bucket too fast without a way to empty it out. Shawn says to watch "The Social Dilemma" on Netflix! It is important to understand how children are comparing themselves in these times. Children are now comparing themselves to 8 billion other people instead of to the neighbor down the street. The influx of algorithms and tech has caused a need for different kinds of resilience, and more resilience at a younger age. Bernadette says we need to be thought leaders. Look into your inner circle to become the best you. You will become who you hang out with! Surround yourself with the best people you can find to learn how to be resilient on all levels. We are designed to overcome, not succumb! Supplements For Mood Folic acid and B vitamins are so important for brain health! If we aren’t firing correctly in our brain then we aren’t conducting well, if we aren’t firing at our full capacity, we can’t be totally resilient! If you have been using SSRI’s, try zembrin. Zembrin is a plant from South Africa. It has a long history of use as a traditional medicine by tribes of South Africa. It has been used to enhance mood and cause relaxation. Oil of oregano is not for the faint of heart, but it is one of the most potent antioxidants known to man! Other supplements and vitamins that can better your mood are Ginkgo biloba, Valerian, Omega-3 Fatty Acids, Melatonin, Probiotics, Curcumin and Magnesium, so go to your local supplement store and stock up! Thank You! A big thank you to our guest, Shawn Wells! Find Shawn at his website, here, or on his instagram at "Ingredientologist." Thank you to all of our One Life Radio listeners.

Key Takeaways: Shawn shares his health journey and how he became a nutritional biochemist. The reason Shawn is so passionate about what he does is that he’s had so many dark days and struggles with both his physical and mental health. Your body can get stressed out from all the mindful meditation and journaling you ‘have to’ do. You can bring a lot of relief by reframing how you see a new situation or challenge. It can actually be very liberating! Shawn would focus all his energy on getting his body healthier, but his mind wasn’t in the right place because he hated himself. What are Shawn’s top ten supplements? Why is keto such a miracle diet for some people? What are theacrine and methylliberine? Is creatine good for you? Shawn shares why mushrooms are an incredible health booster. How do you know whether some of these supplements/products work well with your body? Shawn’s recommendations on the best supplements to take for health optimization. Why are animals so much more bio resistant than humans? Shawn shares his thoughts on COVID-19. Are we being lied to? Sometimes over-sterilizing everything is not the solution. It can make us weaker. Shawn has seen people on 70 different forms of medication. How is that even possible?   Episode Summary: In this episode, Shawn Wells shares how he uses a stoicism mindset to combat stress and reframe how he sees challenges. After struggling with depression and a long list of personal health challenges, he discovered that you can do everything to cure your body physically, but it won’t work if your mental energy is not in the right place. He also discusses how to create bio-resilience as well as some of the supplements he loves to use to optimize his health and nutrition.   Guest Bio: Shawn Wells MPH, LDN, RD, CISSN, FISSN is the world’s leading nutritional biochemist and expert on Health Optimization.

There’s no study done on 7.5 billion people. Anyone that says this has been proven or it’s a scientific fact, is a marketer, not a scientist.”   “What you say is the truth. If you say you can, you’re right. If you say you can’t, you’re right.”   “It’s been shown that you need to be touched six times a day at least to not feel isolated.”   “Once a doctor puts a patient on medication, our general physician in the nursing home could not take them off that medication because [of a potential risk of liabilities]. So what happens is a list of medications would grow and grow.”

Happy Tuesday! Bernadette and Renaldo are having a great day! Bernadette inquires why people find something they love and then watch or listen over and over again... I guess that's love! There is lots to talk about today and we couldn't think of a better person to have on air with us. Shawn Wells is here! Bernadette and Shawn were wee green bananas when they started on the airwaves years and years ago. He accredits his popularity and success to starting on the airwaves with Bernadette. Today, we are talking about supplements, Shawn's favorite! Shawn Wells Shawn Wells is a Master of Public Health, Licensed Dietitian, Registered Dietitian, Certified Sports Nutritionist from the International Society of Sports Nutrition.

Dietary Supplements The FDA oversights with supplements is minimal. There are so many supplement that are out on the market with ingredients that aren't even registered within the FDA. Unfortunately, supplements like that won't ever gain attention until someone lands in the hospital. Try to focus on one good company for your supplements. Look for companies that are transparent with their ingredients. Of course we love Thorne, Enviromedica, and Sunwarrior, and Shawn loves them too! Shawn and Bernadette talk about being wary of the over the counter sexual enhancement pills near the condoms at the register. Those pills contain a lot of the ingredients that the FDA overlooks! Shawn says it makes the most sense to buy the pill or supplement that is more expensive. Shawn says buy expensive so if when you do want to go cheaper one day, you know how a proper supplement is suppose to make you feel. The biggest thing to avoid is proprietary blends. That means that 99% of it could be the one cheap ingredient, and the oner 1% has the mix of the better ingredients. Essentially, you are buying fake fairy dust. If you are really investing in a supplement for life, you can actually have your supplements tested for a couple hundred dollars. There is a cheaper way though! Call the company and ask for a breakdown of what exactly is in their supplements, and if they refuse, report them. You hold power as a consumer! A good rule of thumb is that if they have been around for 20 plus years, they are probably good. Follow the sushi rule. If you wouldn't buy sushi from a gas station, you shouldn't buy your supplements there either. Ingredients In Supplements The adverse affect reporting system is public information. This is very helpful for those who are new to the supplement world who want to get their bodies in better shape! Shawn also says to look at examine. Examine tells you all about every ingredient in your pill, so check them out! Bernadette talks about how much she loves "berberine." The flip side of supplements is that sometimes there's not enough accountability with them. Unfortunately, that goes both ways, so when you have a great supplement, you have to be wary of what you say. Supplements are complicated and competitive. Shawn is around to help lay people understand the complicated science! Avoid companies with marketing fluff.

His experience as a deep Empath as he takes on more energy around him during COVID-19. Why it’s natural for us to have a moment of fear when someone hugs us but then 30-seconds in, the sensation completely changes. His wish for the world for everyone to just talk to one another, be there for each other, and come together during the COVID-19 pandemic as a whole union to let go of the revolving fear. Eckhart Tolle What emotional nutrients we can gather and add to our lives including therapy, self-care, and connecting with Mother Earth. Simple, healthy practices we can apply to our day that will help us spend more time outside to get some natural sunlight and fresh air. Unpacking the fact that fear can shut down the immune system by over 50%.   [16:00] Are You Listening? The mass fear that the media is spreading with COVID-19, racism, and protests. Why we’re meant to come together as a whole in society to be one strong body but we keep fighting each other instead of really connecting and listening to each other. Joyner Lucas - I'm Not Racist How we can come together as a society to love, connect, and support one another. The Great Pause of 2020 as we are collectively listening and figuring out what we're actually willing to fight for in this world. Exploring the power of love and why it needs to take action sometimes. Why the most powerful person in the room isn’t the one speaking but the listener. What powerful lesson Ayahuasca taught Josh about the importance of listening during a plant medicine ceremony.   [23:00] The Power Of Words & Mental Health Unpacking Shawn’s own wellness journey of healing and how he became a world-renowned supplement ingredient specialist. The traumatic childhood he had from problems at home and his brother running away to being bullied at school about his body. How, like many people trying to hold depression back including Chris Farley, Robin Williams, and Chester Bennington, he created himself as the class clown to cover up what was really going on in his life and compensate for his pain. How his interest from business changed as his own health transformation took place. The incredible impact a discussion with his doctor during a physical check-up had on him as he turned his focus to a career in health. Cruel words that were said to him by a guidance counselor regarding his dreams to earn a Master’s in Nutritional Biochemistry that led him down a dark road until it fueled him to excel in his program. The long list of illnesses he had while studying at Chapel Hill including Epstein–Barr virus, chronic fatigue syndrome, Hashimoto’s, fibromyalgia, anorexic, orthorexic, and unpacking why they all happened at once to him. What was going on in the background emotionally for him while he was still excelling academically. Exploring what leads people to become so obsessed with their health that they become orthorexic.   [29:00] How To "Lead From Our Wounds" 332 John Wineland The new face of masculinity as we focus on leading from our wounds rather than our wounds leading us. The Mask of Masculinity by Lewis Howes The toxic masculinity era that Josh and Shawn both grew up in including taunting, bullying, and “manning up.” Why it’s so hard to let go of the old masculine to embrace emotions, be empathetic, and connect with others on a deeper level. Brené Brown Alison Armstrong What male role models men can look up to as they transform into strong people yet be traditional, have values, and respect others. How the Ketogenic diet and supplements helped Shawn begin to heal his illnesses and depression.   [37:00] The New Era Of The Conscious Man The power of participating in Men’s Groups and Masterminds to connect with other people who are also struggling and looking to heal or grow. What imposter syndrome is and his experience feeling it at Lewis Howes' School Of Greatness. Lewis Howes' Summit Of Greatness Why most people out there who have achieved the most are also hurting the most. Breaking down why happiness, not money, is success. Why the societal norm that “men can’t talk about their emotions” is hurting them because they cannot express themselves and thus heal. Exploring the new era of the Conscious Man and what masculinity and being “strong” means today. How we reflect back what we see in ourselves when we either give compliments to project negativity other people.   [51:30] How Much Marketing & Contact Tracing Actually Impacts Our Lives Unpacking how much marketing and data collection from brands like Apple and Google are actually impacting our lives. Why the contact tracing that is being collected behind COVID-19 which claims to “keep us safe” actually has other agendas. What steps are taken in algorithms to share specific ads with us based on everything from where we are to our current emotional state to what music we are listening to on Spotify. Exploring Marketing 101 and why emotions drive our buying behavior. How the news media is using clickbait to hone in our very own feelings when we read the headlines. His question for society: Can you be a little bit more conscious, listen, and see what all of us have in common with one another? The fact that each and every single one of us just wants to be accepted and loved no matter our background. Why these puppeteers from the mass media to organizations want us to be divided in order to control us. How to start finding things around you that light you up and help you love yourself and your life. BREATHE M21 Wellness Guide Wellness Force Community   Power Quotes From The Show   Self-Care During COVID-19 "Connection with Mother Earth is so important right now. It's a primal thing for us to connect and be outside so make sure that you are not isolating more than you need to; you're not just sitting inside and not connecting with people like you can potentially on video and if you do it on video, sit outside or go take a walk. Those things are so critical for our health." - Shawn Wells   Healing Through Connection "I would challenge people right now to get a life coach or therapist. I just started working with a psychologist. I do have mentors, coaches, and friends who I connect, call, and have discussions with; very vulnerable conversations. Now is not the time to be superficial; I mean, it never really is but now is the time to reach out and connect with one another more than ever." - Shawn Wells   What Does It Mean To Be A Man in 2020? "The conscious male doesn't have to be "the new PC" where we're stripped of what makes us male. We can still be strong but great listeners. We can be strong and have great manners. We can be physically strong but not have the need to apply that physical strength. That's like being Clark Kent; you have the power but you don't need to prove anything all the time. Most of the time we don't even need to prove anything to be a man; we just have to show up for our responsibilities and be there for the people in our lives." - Shawn Wells   Links From Today's Show  Cured Nutrition BioTRUST Nutrition World’s Greatest Ingredients Zone Halo Research Eckhart Tolle Joyner Lucas - I'm Not Racist 332 John Wineland The Mask of Masculinity by Lewis Howes Brené Brown Alison Armstrong Lewis Howes' Summit Of Greatness Good Morning LaLa land - Shawn Wells #35 Shawn Wells and Ryan Lowery | Onnit Podcast Shawn Wells talks about his incredible health journey Leave Wellness Force a review on iTunes BREATHE M21 Wellness Guide Wellness Force Community Shawn Wells Facebook Instagram Twitter YouTube LinkedIn   About Shawn Wells Shawn Wells, MPH, LDN, RD, CISSN, FISSN is an expert in the fields of performance nutrition, longevity, fitness and supplementation.

Crazy Tuesday! Happy Tuesday everyone! We hope everyone is staying dry on this wet one! Today we are grateful to have Shawn Wells with us for the full hour! Let's jump right in! Shawn Wells Shawn Wells, MPH, LDN, RD, CISSN, FISSN is an expert in the fields of performance nutrition, longevity, fitness and supplementation.

Shawn is a Registered Dietitian with a decade of experience as a Chief Clinical Dietitian in hospitals and skilled nursing facilities. He is also a Certified Sports Nutritionist and has worked with celebrity clients and professional athletes. Sugar We as Americans consume 160 pounds of sugar annually! That’s a full human weight's worth of sugar! Sugar is marketed to children, young adults, and it lies in all kinds of food and drink. We are absolutely addicted to sugar! Physiologically we can go through withdrawals just like in heroin or alcohol. No fear though, addiction to sugar can be reversed! Use exercise as a way to earn a sugary treat. Make a connection between working out and satiating treats! By doing this, we create a positive new neural-pathway in our brain! Royal honey is one of Shawn’s favorite supplements. Royal honey is the honey that is only meant for the Queen Bee, because it contains a rich source of carbohydrates. Carbohydrates are not always bad! Try and get your carbohydrates from supplements like royal honey instead of sugar rich carbs like white bread. There are studies that show when we consume a sweet beverage, people consume 300-500 calories more in their meal. That’s calories in addition to the calories in your drink! Sugar drives consumption. Added flavors are engineered to make us overeat. Instead of finishing the whole fancy “sweet heat” almond bag, have a handful of raw almonds.  Saccharine is the worst! For so long, Bernadette and many others were adding the little pink packet to our unsweetened tea and thinking we were okay! Monk fruit and stevia are the two best non sugar sweeteners on the market. The sweeteners ending in “OL” can hurt your gut microbiome and spike your blood sugar. Stick to monk fruit and stevia. Be aware that monk fruit and stevia is being so engineered that you are losing your basic compounds. The best bet is to simply find low sugar snacks, and to stay away from sweeteners as much as you can.  Thank You! A big thank you to our guest and expert formulator, Shawn Wells.

After getting to know Shawn a little, I figured out that he's not only incredibly knowledgeable in the supplement space but as someone that is truly out to help people become the best version of themselves.  One of my favorite lines from him goes to the tune of "If you want to add 12 years to your life... add happiness".  I didn't think I would hear that in this conversation.  I now understand that biohacking can include happiness!  So cool.  Here's Shawn's life story below!!! Also here's the link to the supplements he recommends.... https://www.amazon.com/shop/lifestylelocker Shawn Wells, MPH, LDN, RD, CISSN, FISSN is an expert in the fields of performance nutrition, longevity, fitness and supplementation. He earned his master’s degree from UNC-Chapel Hill, where he studied nutritional biochemistry with a minor in exercise science. Shawn is a Registered Dietitian with a decade of experience as a Chief Clinical Dietitian in hospitals and skilled nursing facilities. He is also a Certified Sports Nutritionist and has worked with celebrity clients and professional athletes. On the road to being dubbed “The World’s Greatest Formulator”, Biohacktivitst, and Keto Authority, Shawn faced and overcame significant obstacles with his own health—weight issues, depression, autoimmune conditions (Epstein-Barr, Fibromyalgia, and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome), two cervical discs replacements, and a pituitary adenoma, which is a type of brain tumor. They say everything happens for a reason, and in Shawn’s case, his health problems led him down a winding path that required him to find science-based solutions, and they sparked his personal passion for biohacking. In the supplement industry, Shawn has held the titles of Director of Research and Development for Dymatize Nutrition® and Chief Scientific Officer for BioTrust Nutrition®. In addition to these appointments, Shawn is a co-founder of the popular patented ingredients TeaCrine® and Dynamine®, which are featured or used in over 300 products worldwide. He also has worked on patents on exogenous ketones, glucose tolerance agents, and more as the founding partner of the World’s Greatest Ingredients, LLC, alongside a team of PhDs and scientists. Shawn also is the CEO of Zone Halo Research, a consulting group for supplement formulations, sourcing, manufacturing, marketing, and regulatory/compliance work.
