Angela presents a bitesize biohack alongside Chris Masterjohn with a focus on the foundations of living a healthy and vibrant life through nutrition. The discussion revolves around the importance of obtaining nutrients from whole foods rather than relying on fortified foods and delves into the pitfalls of relying on fortified foods and the potential deficiencies that can arise from not diversifying one's diet. KEY TAKEAWAYS Focus on getting nutrients from whole foods to ensure a healthy diet. Avoid relying on fortified foods and instead construct a well-rounded diet. Diversify protein sources, including meat, fish, dairy, eggs, and legumes. Balance carbohydrates with whole grains, starchy tubers, legumes, and fruits. Individual factors such as menstrual blood loss can affect micronutrient needs. BEST MOMENTS "I think rule one is how could you get all your vitamins and minerals and proteins, fats and carbohydrates and calories and everything that you need from whole foods." "It's interesting if you look at history how that generally only works for a period of time." "If you are trying to eat a very restrictive diet, you really need to think a lot about this." "I seem to really struggle with enough potassium. That's just something It's been right from the days when I was practicing as a lawyer."

Angela welcomes Chris Masterjohn, an expert in nutrition and health, to discuss the importance of getting nutrients from whole foods and the limitations of relying on fortified processed foods. Chris particularly focusses upon the need for a well-rounded diet that includes proteins, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals from a variety of sources, and addresses the misconception around hydration, explaining that people should drink water when they're thirsty and not worry about arbitrary guidelines. Chris and Angela also delve into the topic of blood sugar spikes and the individual variability in response to certain foods, the importance of context, such as glycogen depletion and exercise intensity, in understanding glucose tolerance. KEY TAKEAWAYS Focus on getting nutrients from whole foods: The first rule of nutrition is to try to get all your vitamins, minerals, proteins, fats, carbohydrates, and calories from whole foods. Avoid relying on fortified processed foods. Consider individual needs and variations: Everyone's nutritional needs are different, and factors such as genetics, lifestyle, and health conditions can affect nutrient requirements. It's important to listen to your body and adjust your diet accordingly. Don't be afraid of blood sugar spikes: Blood sugar spikes after consuming certain foods are not necessarily a cause for concern, especially if you are healthy and have no glucose intolerance. Avoiding foods that cause spikes can actually lead to glucose intolerance over time. Consider glycogen depletion and exercise: The glycogen stores in your body can affect your glucose tolerance. Intense exercise that depletes glycogen, such as zone two running, can improve glucose tolerance. Rest days and different types of workouts can also impact glycogen levels. BEST MOMENTS "There's no better way to make yourself glucose intolerant than to not eat things that spike your blood sugar." "You shouldn't need to think about it. Your hypothalamus does that unless it's damaged." "If you're not getting a negative symptomatic response to it, you don't want to regularly spike your blood sugar to 200, but you can afford to do it again and see what the trend is." "There's no better way to make yourself glucose tolerant than to eat things that spike your blood sugar."

Today, we welcome back a guest from the early days of this podcast, fellow former vegan and esteemed researcher and scientist, Chris Masterjohn. Chris Masterjohn earned his PhD in Nutritional Sciences from the University of Connecticut, and has worked as a postdoctoral research associate and Assistant Professor of Health and Nutrition Sciences. In 2016, he transitioned to entrepreneurship. These days, Chris conducts independent research, consults, develops information products, and creates free content to help people improve their health. Chris is dedicated to sharing practical principles from complex science, and to the pursuit of truth and continuous learning. He's a biohacker from before the word “biohacking” came to be, appearing on episode 16 of this podcast when I was just getting that movement started, because he not only pays attention to how stuff works in the world and academic research, but he hacks his own body. I've always liked the way he thinks mechanistically about biology, nutrients, and what to eat. In this conversation, we talk about how to recover from veganism and reverse the effects of oxalates, highlighting the long term health impacts of the vegan diet. His own self experimentation lately is of particular interest to me as he's been exploring the intersection of genetics and mitochondrial health to heal niche health conditions and even quell extreme fears or stressors.We also talk about the link between energy metabolism and psychological trauma, chronic pain and oxalate overload, and even explore the potential dangers of methylene blue from his latest 58 page research paper breaking down the importance of correct dosing.

My guest, J Ann Dunn, suffered with depression for almost 50 years and with Fibromyalgia for decades. As a Doctor of Chiropractic trained in functional medicine as well, she tried everything she knew to heal herself. Nothing worked. She had a successful practice in New Mexico for 30+ years and was bothered by those few patients who didn't respond to tools she used on all her patients--nutrition, structural work, emotional work. “As natural healthcare practitioners, we kind of park that stuff on the side and say, it must be genetic. You know, that was kind of the black box on the side that we couldn't really get to.” Her father had died young of lung cancer which didn't surprise J because he had been a smoker and drinker with a few other poor lifestyle habits. Her step-dad on the other hand, who shared his buddy's bad habits, lived another 30 years. All of those things had J curious about this genetics thing. Many years of research and studying later, she is depression free, free of fibromyalgia, and has helped thousands of people heal from emotional and physical problems using gene mapping and biochemistry.  J started her company, https://myhappygenes.com/analyze-my-genes/ (My Happy Genes,) to bring her discovery to patients everywhere.  What she discovered began with the word methylation. https://www.thorne.com/take-5-daily/article/what-is-methylation-and-why-should-you-care-about-it (Thorne.com) defines methylation this way, “Methylation is a simple biochemical process – it is the transfer of four atoms - one carbon atom and three hydrogen atoms (CH3) from one substance to another.  When https://www.thorne.com/products/dp/methyl-guard-reg (optimal methylation) occurs, it has a significant positive impact on many biochemical reactions in the body that regulate the activity of the cardiovascular, neurological, reproductive, and detoxification systems.” J decided to figure out how to use methylation in her work. Genetic variants cause problems with hidden sources. As was the case with J, the inability for her body to absorb vitamin D—no matter how much she took. Wondering how she could boost vitamin D through other pathways she discovered that D is involved in how well your immune system works to fight off infections, like the virus that causes CFS or Epstein Barr. What really wowed her was finding that how we convert certain amino acids into neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine, our happy hormones.  In other words, her inability to absorb D had a big hand in her depression and her CFS. Once she found https://chrismasterjohnphd.com/ (Chris Masterjohn.)he's a PhD biochemist, who told her that the co-factors for vitamin D are vitamin K2 and A, and then your body can absorb D,” she had to give it a try. Lucky for us, it worked. “I started taking that combination and bam, my depression, my lifelong depression gone and I'm not kidding, I was like, I think I'm happy, I've heard about this. I've heard about it, but I don't think I'd ever really felt it. You don't know until you actually have brain chemicals that are happy hormones.” J I know some of you reading would love to experience that! https://myhappygenes.com/analyze-my-genes/ (MyHappyGenes) has two reports, one comes free with the test, it's the Mood and Personality Report, How likely you are to experience brain chemistry imbalances. You can add a second report that gives diet and lifestyle recommendations, how to fine-tune your genes for optimal mental and emotional health.  The first report is available to everyone and can be read easily by a lay person. Each marker or gene profile is shown as a graph from 0 to 100. Where you are on the graph indicates how likely you are, or not, to suffer from a chemical imbalance. The second report requires a practitioner to walk the person through the results, some of which might cause concern. But also so that you can be guided through...

Today's guest is nutrition researcher and writer, Dr. Chris Masterjohn, Ph.D.  We love Chris' non-dogmatic, evidence-based, approach to nutrition science and in this episode, he helps us understand how health coaches can appropriately interact with research.  Sharing nutrition studies, or articles written from nutrition studies, without fully understanding how to read them and extract the pertinent information is a practice that really needs to be tightened up.  We want health coaches to keep their fingers on the pulse of emerging research in a way that ensures that the outcomes of the research are understood and shared in an appropriate way.  If you are a coach who feels uncomfortable knowing where to start with research papers or you enjoy learning by going directly to the literature, this episode is for you!

We've decided to do a series of episodes on the fundamentals of good health - each containing the best practical information we've come across for improving the quality of your life and achieving your goals. We're focusing on the most commonly asked-about areas, such as stress and hormesis, movement and exercise, and diet and nutrition.

They explain why you should care about the quality of your nighttime routine, and they discuss the impact of light, food and exercise on your ability to sleep well.

McArdle is the current chair of the Los Angeles Libertarian Party and is spearheading an effort to amend the New York City charter to prohibit the mayor from making mandates. We discuss the ethics of mandates, steelmanning the case in favor of them, and then justifying our opposition to them. We discuss strategies to defeat them, as well as strategies for employees to keep their jobs when faced with them. Angela has worked as a paralegal and legal aid for over eleven years.  Angela currently works in litigation and also has a private practice where she provides self help legal services to low income clients.

Despite a shifting scientific landscape, dietary cholesterol is still a hotly debated topic. Joe Rogan and Chris Kresser eat eggs every day, while the plant-based community still loves to highlight the supposed dangers of dietary cholesterol. High cholesterol has historically been associated with poor health, but is there a range where cholesterol levels get too low? Our guest in this episode of the podcast believes the combination of a genetic predisposition combined with a strict vegan diet caused him to develop a dangerous cholesterol deficiency. A former assistant professor of Nutrition Science at Brooklyn College, Chris Masterjohn, Ph.D. is one of the smartest minds in nutrition. Chris shares a fascinating story of how going vegan caused him to develop nutrient deficiencies which led to a battle with mental illness and anxiety. Chris' subsequent focus on nutrient-dense, animal-based foods restored his health and changed his perspective on how the foods we eat play a large role in cognitive function. We cover a wide range of topics with Chris and he takes a number of controversial positions in this episode, including who shouldn't eat eggs, nutrient deficiencies that are most likely to arise on a carnivore diet, whether “fancy” blood testing metrics like LDL-P are necessary to gauge cardiovascular health, why some people fail on vegan diets and much more.

In Episode 048 of A Medicinal Mind, Wisdom and Wellbeing, I welcome back the inquisitive mind of the researcher known affectionately as the Magnesium man, Morley Robbins. In my two previous discussions with Morley, Episodes 23 and Episode 32, we explored the foundations of mineral metabolism, the intricate dance between Fe, Mg and Cu and the overall implications of these minerals on our health.   In this new foray into the world of biochemistry, Morley leads us through a fascinating exploration of his most recent research rabbit hole into the importance of fat soluble vitamins, and most specifically Vitamin A and its part of the wider dance of mineral biochemistry.   Morley begins the conversation with a foundational discussion of Vitamin A metabolism, what really is Vitamin A, retinol, retinal, and beta carotene. Is the vitamin A in carrots the same Vitamin A in beef liver?   Exploring further questions, Morley helps to answer: What are some of the highest sources of retinol, what is the history of cod liver oil and the ingestion of organ meats?   What is retinol actually doing in the body? Besides its involvement in balancing oxidative stress in the body, Is it the molecule, and not iron, driving the production of hemoglobin and eventually the oxygen carrying red blood cell?   We then shift the discussion into the intricate science behind energy production in the mitochondria and the fascinatingly beautiful electron transport chain, where does Fe, Oxygen, Magnesium, Vitamin A, lipids and Cu enter the scene in order for us to make the energy currency of the body: ATP.   As the story unfolds we begin to discover that Vitamin A is behind perhaps the most important systemic processes in the body   Energy Production Genetic Expression and Regulation Inflammation Oxygen Deliverability Oxidative Stress   and much more   Shifting back to the discussion of fat soluble vitamins, A, D and K, Morley fills us in with the reality that Vitamin D supplementation alone is likely not helping and actually probably hurting more people than we think. And where does Cu fit into the metabolism and function of the fat soluble vitamins? And what really is the difference between a vitamin and a mineral chemically? Structurally? How does their chemical structure affect their function and location of action in the body.   We then end the discussion with an exploration of Vitamin A and its importance in genetic expression and regulation? Why are people so terrified of Vitamin A overdose and toxicity?   I encourage you once more to listen to this conversation at least 2 or 3 times to really synthesize all of the ideas presented by Morley and myself.   And, be sure as well to explore the show notes for today's show on our podcast page, our podcast app or other podcast media device to find our link to the intricately described Nutritional Testing Resource: a jam packed guide created by the visionary researcher Dr. Chris Masterjohn to help you discover how to properly assess, test and address functional nutritional status and any unearthed clinical deficiencies.   To get Dr. Chris Masterjohn's Nutritional Testing Resource go HERE   List of Primary Research Studies   http://departments.agri.huji.ac.il/animal/staff/faculty_staff/uni_zehava/publications/Bacterial%20population%20and%20innate%20immunity-related%20genes%20in%20rat%20gastrointestinal%20tract.pdf https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2991380/ https://academic.oup.com/edrv/article/34/6/766/2354654 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21366525 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17320364 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3916855/ Don't forget to get Dr. Chris Masterjohn's Nutritional Testing Resource HERE You can see all of our content including blogs, poetry, meditations, and our weekly newsletter at our webpage: A Medicinal Mind   You can also follow A Medicinal Mind on Facebook and Instagram If you enjoyed the show, please subscribe with Apple Podcasts and leave us a review.

Price Foundation journal, Wise Traditions. Chris is a sought-after nutrition expert and a seasoned researcher on the interactions between vitamins, essential fatty acids, and cholesterol. If you ever wondered if you should eat more fat, this show is a must-listen! On today's show, you will learn: Why Hexane is in our food (and why you should avoid it); How to manage inflammation instead of avoiding it; Why you should avoid corn oil at all costs; How to get all the nutrients you need to thrive; And a lot more on fats, cholesterol, and vitamins. Enjoy the show, and please share it with your friends and family. [powerpress channel="podcast"] Show Notes Fat in our diet is important as it carries fat-soluble vitamins with it. It assists in the absorption of fat-soluble nutrients from vegetables. That's why it's important to add good fats to salads and vegetables. Fats helps to make food delicious but also more satiating. Favorite fats include butter and egg yolks, excellent for reproduction. Animal fats are next, but it really depends on how animals are raised. Natural state, free-range, grass-fed animals have more nutritious fats. Avoid factory-farmed animal products and go for grass-fed ones instead. Grain-fed and vegetable-oil-fed animals typically produce bad fats. Tropic plant-based fats are coconut oil, cocoa butter, and red palm tree oil. Non-tropic ones are olive oil, macadamia nut oil, peanut oil, and sesame oil. Avoid chemically processed oils, like soybean, corn, canola, and cottonseed. "Bad" oils have highly industrialized processes and solvents to extract them. They are bleached, deodorized, and have high levels of hexane for extraction. Hexane is toxic, and many soy-based foods to contain hexane residue. Cold-pressed oils are not perfect but better than solvent-based extraction. Overconsumption is not good as it increases polyunsaturated fatty acids. Corn oil is almost exclusively Omega-6, which makes you Omega-3 deficient. The language of "pro-inflammatory vs. anti-inflammatory" is misleading. Inflammation to a point is actually good (incites inflammation resolution). EPA (high dose fish oil) is close to non-steroidal anti-inflammatories. Interfering in the initiation of inflammation vs. resolution of it. High doses can interfere with both the initiation and the resolution. Anti-inflammatories (NSAIDs, Cox-inhibitors, etc) are therefore bad. Similarly, any natural "anti-inflammatories" in high doses are bad, too. It's better to give enough to our bodies to regulate inflammation instead. Use natural food sweeteners like raw honey or unrefined sugars. Balance is key, such as simple, utilitarian foods and gourmet foods. Everything in moderation is fine, including intermittent fasting. Fasting can be stressful, but stress is not always a bad thing. The point is to listen to your body and see how it responds to food. Try to include some liberal sources of nutrient-dense foods. Include organ meats, fish liver oils, bones for soups and broths. Cod liver oil is rich in vitamins A and D, and Omega fatty acids. Used for helping joint-tissue disorders with autoimmune components. Helps a variety of deficiencies that lead to blindness and rickets. Also used as preventative in many illnesses including common cold. Best source is unheated Cod liver oil, like Blue Ice and Corganic. Vitamins A, D, and K are fat-soluble vitamins that work synergistically. They help calcium and magnesium absorption, and regulate calcification. These vitamins are important in child development and in old age. Best derived from leafy green veggies, fermented products, and animal fats. Recommended Resources The Daily Lipid Wise Traditions by the Weston A.
