This episode explores chrono-nutrition, the science of aligning meal timing with your body's natural rhythms (circadian clock). Studies show that eating breakfast is linked to significantly greater weight loss and improved metabolic health compared to eating dinner. The episode emphasizes the importance of understanding your chronotype (Lion, Bear, Wolf, or Dolphin) to optimize meal timing for better energy, digestion, sleep, and overall well-being. Irregular eating patterns disrupt internal clocks, leading to issues like insulin resistance, poor sleep, and weight gain. #weightloss #diet #wellness ==== Thank You To Our Sponsors!

You don't need another expert telling you to “get off your phone” or “try magnesium.” You probably already know what helps with sleep. The harder part? Actually doing it—consistently, night after night.In this solo episode, Blaine lays it out straight: better sleep isn't about chasing the next trick—it's about showing up for the simple things that work. She connects the dots between light exposure, bedtime routines, old wisdom, and modern behavioral tools that (surprise!) all say the same thing: your body wants rhythm, not randomness.This episode is equal parts practical, grounded, and honest. If your sleep is off and you're ready to stop treating it like a side project, press play.What she covers:Why light is your body's favorite sleep medicineNot a supplement. Not a sleep spray. Natural light—especially in the morning and evening—can re-sync your internal clock more powerfully than most people realize. Blaine explains how to work with it, not against it.The little habits that quietly sabotage restFrom screen time to late dinners, these might seem harmless, but they add up. This part isn't about shame—it's about noticing what's actually making it harder to wind down (and what's not worth stressing over).A behavioral approach that skips the fluff CBT-I is one of the most researched methods for sleep. Blaine gives a down-to-earth overview of how it works and why it might be worth looking into if your nights are consistently rough.What waking up at 2 a.m. might be telling youTraditional systems like Chinese medicine have long understood the body's nighttime patterns. Learn why those specific hours might not be random—and what you can do with that information.Blaine's Core Message:If you want better sleep, you have to commit to change. Routine, consistency, and respect for your body's rhythms—not quick fixes—are what lead to lasting rest and healing.

Can "quantum biology" explain why even the healthiest people are still getting sick? In this episode, Dr. Alison Monette reveals why circadian rhythm health is the true foundation of wellness, not diet, exercise, or even supplements. She explains how morning sunlight, light exposure, and your alignment with natural cycles may matter more than anything else you're doing right now.We go deep into how Dr. Monette went from owning a CrossFit gym and practicing functional medicine, to discovering that even those models were still too centralized. Through her personal health journey and treating thousands of patients, she realized that quantum biology and decentralized health are the missing pieces, especially for those who are doing everything “right” and still not getting results.This conversation is for anyone who's burned out on biohacking, confused by contradictory nutrition advice, or who wants a simple, grounded way to build resilient, lifelong health. We unpack why blue light may be silently wrecking your sleep, how to use sunlight to reset your metabolism, and why your mitochondria are the real key to wellness. It's not about optimizing harder, it's about aligning smarter.If you've ever felt like modern life is out of sync with your biology, this episode will hit home. Plus, we explore how this all connects to Bitcoin, self-sovereignty, and why El Salvador might be the perfect place to reclaim your health.Subscribe, leave a comment with your biggest takeaway, and share this with someone who needs to hear it before they buy another supplement or sign up for another fitness challenge.Learn more about Dr. Alison Monettehttps://www.avenamedical.com/https://www.facebook.com/avenamedical/# Support and follow Bitcoin Beach:X: @BitcoinBeachIG: @bitcoinbeach_svTikTok: @livefrombitcoinbeachWeb: bitcoinbeach.comTimestamps:00:00 What does it mean to decentralize your health?08:00 Why functional medicine may still be too centralized12:45 Are CrossFit and extreme fitness harming your long-term health?19:00 How quantum biology reframed Dr. Monette's entire medical practice26:30 What is the most important lab test for inflammation?35:00 How circadian rhythm controls your metabolism and sleep41:00 Why morning sunlight is the most powerful health intervention48:30 Is intermittent fasting actually making things worse?57:00 What melatonin really does and how to naturally produce it1:10:00 Is sunscreen helping or harming your skin health?1:25:00 The connection between Bitcoin, sovereignty, and health decentralization#circadianrhythm #quantumbiology #biohackinglightLive From Bitcoin Beach

Listen to today's podcast... Tick tock. Tick tock. Can you hear your biological clock ticking away? I am pretty sure that I can, though, I am certainly not looking at having anymore children! So What Does Your Biological Clock Tell You? Our biological clock does so much more than tell us the perfect time to get pregnant. In fact, both men and women and the young and old are subject to the influence of the biological clocks that we all have. Circadian rhythms are controlled by “clock genes” that carry the genetic instructions to produce proteins. These instructions control everything from when we sleep and rest, body temperature, heart activity, hormone secretion, blood pressure, oxygen consumption, and metabolism. They may even influence our mood, particularly in the form of wintertime depression known as seasonal affective disorder. Take One Action Today To Build Your #Resiliency! Here are today's Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating Biological Clock Day: Celebrate – whatever age you are, or whatever life stage you are in. Sleep is essential to our mental and physical health. Clock genes normally keep us awake during the day and asleep at night. But when a clock gene mutates, it can disrupt the normal sleep cycle. Sunlight, air travel and even the seasons can disrupt our Circadian Rhythms and the quality and quantity of sleep that we get. So avoid night light. When possible, avoid bright and outdoor light close to bedtime and keep your surroundings as dark as possible at night. Cover the lights of your alarm clock, so that you are not tempted to look at it or have its glow disrupt your sleep. Avoid eating or exercising too close to bedtime. Also watch out for caffeine and nicotine, both of which are stimulants.

Send us a message!For many women in midlife, changes in sleep patterns, energy levels, and even weight can feel confusing and frustrating. What's often overlooked is how menopause and modern life together disrupt our natural circadian rhythms—the internal clocks that regulate nearly every system in the body. When circadian rhythms fall out of sync, it doesn't just affect sleep; it can also impact hormonal balance, mood, metabolic health, and even long-term disease risk. Yet most of us have no idea how much these hidden clocks influence our daily lives—or how to get them back on track.In this episode, I'm joined by longtime friend and science journalist Lynne Peeples, author of The Inner Clock: Living in Sync with Our Circadian Rhythms. Lynne shares what inspired her to dive into the science of circadian rhythms, why menopause can further dampen our internal clocks, and the powerful strategies she uses to realign them. We also explore the emerging research on time-restricted eating, medication timing, and how small daily shifts can help improve sleep, mood, and overall health.ReferencesCenter for Environmental TherapeuticsConnect with Lynne PeeplesThe Inner Clock: Living in Sync with Our Circadian Rhythms by Lynne PeeplesWebsiteConnect with me:TikTokInstagramEastside Menopause & MetabolismAudio Stamps00:40 - Dr. Patil-Sisodia welcomes longtime friend Lynne Peeples to discuss her new book, The Inner Clock, and the powerful impact of circadian rhythms on our health.02:52 - Lynne shares what sparked her interest in circadian rhythms.07:40 - We learn how the timing of certain medications can impact their effectiveness, with some showing better results when taken at specific times of day.11:35 - Lynne explains that circadian rhythms involve multiple internal clocks, and our chronotype is based on how we respond to light and sleep patterns.16:06 - Find out how shift work and modern life disrupt our circadian rhythms, affecting health and chronotype.20:08 - How circadian science, particularly time-restricted eating, shows promise in improving metabolic health by aligning eating windows with natural body rhythms.24:38 - Lynne explains how menopause dampens circadian rhythms, affecting hormones, sleep, and metabolic health.28:04 - Lynne shares the strategies she uses to improve her circadian rhythms, including 3 key lifestyle adjustments that support better sleep and overall health.Thanks for listening.

You've no doubt heard references to the existence of body clocks, and it's no surprise because all of our bodily functions are regulated by the circadian system. To put it simply, our circadian rhythms optimise bodily functions. In this episode, we explain why it is important. They are managed by a master clock known as the circadian pacemaker which is formed of around 20,000 neurons. It's situated in the brain, more specifically in the hypothalamus. The sleep-wake cycle is an obvious example of a circadian rhythm. But these cycles help many other systems to function too, like hunger, organ activity, memory consolidation and pain perception. The word “circadian” actually comes from the Latin “circa diem”, meaning “around a day”. What are the dangers of a disrupted circadian rhythm? What's the best way to stop circadian rhythms from getting disrupted? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

In this interview, Alexis Cowan, Ph.D., a molecular biologist from Princeton, uses her deep knowledge of molecular biology, particularly her passion for light, circadian rhythms and mitochondrial health, and offers a fresh perspective on optimizing your well-being.
Welcome to the Triple P Life Podcast! In this episode, Dr. Jay LaGuardia dives deep into a topic rarely discussed but profoundly impacting your daily life - circadian rhythms. Dr. Jay explores how these internal 24-hour cycles regulate everything from sleep and hormone production to metabolism and cognitive function. If you've ever felt off after daylight saving time changes or struggled with energy levels despite doing "everything right," this episode reveals the missing piece of your health puzzle. What You'll Learn: What circadian rhythms actually are - Your body's internal 24-hour clock controlled by the suprachiasmatic nucleus in your hypothalamus The power of light as the primary environmental cue that dictates your body's rhythms and overall health How sunlight functions as a nutrient containing a full spectrum of light frequencies (infrared, ultraviolet, and ambient) that each play unique roles in your biology Why your mitochondria are light-sensitive and how different light frequencies optimize their function The dangers of EMF exposure from modern technologies and practical steps to reduce your exposure Why children are more vulnerable to EMF radiation than adults due to thinner skulls and rapidly changing cells The truth about sunlight exposure - it's not the sun that's harmful, but rather the length of exposure and dietary factors like seed oils How to optimize your circadian rhythms through strategic light exposure, meal timing, exercise, and sleep practices Practical Strategies You Can Implement Today: Reduce EMF exposure by using speakerphone instead of holding your phone to your ear, keeping devices off your body, and putting your WiFi router on a timer at night Optimize sun exposure by getting morning sunlight, gradually building your "solar callus," and reducing seed oils in your diet Enhance indoor environments with full spectrum lighting (aim for 10,000 lux) and open windows for unfiltered sunlight Block blue light in the evening using blue-light blocking glasses and device filters Maintain consistent meal times with larger meals during daylight hours Exercise strategically with morning workouts and avoiding intense exercise before bed Support sleep quality by keeping your bedroom cool (around 60-63°F) and considering supplements like magnesium or glycine if needed Dr. Jay emphasizes that understanding and optimizing your circadian rhythms isn't just about better sleep—it's about enhancing your energy, metabolism, longevity, and overall daily performance by aligning your lifestyle with your natural biological clock.

They explain why shifting your eating window earlier in the day can significantly improve weight loss, even without changing your food choices. The episode offers practical strategies for aligning your fasting schedule with your circadian biology, including morning and evening light exposure tips, consistent sleep patterns, and meal timing adjustments that make fasting more effective. Whether you're struggling with a weight loss plateau or looking to optimize your fasting routine, this episode provides actionable steps to harness your body's natural rhythms for better results.

IN THIS EPISODE: (02:44) Don't allow your health plan to stress you; focus on what works for your body and your life(06:19) Limit how many content creators you follow and the truth about protein and fiber(10:31) Clean, lean protein, veggies and fruit, and eating at certain times of the day(15:27) Fasting, the difference between unprocessed and processed foods, and movement(23:40) Listen to your body, stress, sleep and supplements(31:15) Social connection and community are key for longevity(33:08) Sleep is the ultimate biohack for a healthy body(37:02) The quality of a supplement mattersKEY TAKEAWAYS:If your health plan feels overwhelming, it might do more harm than good. Simplify your wellness by focusing on what works for you and limiting the experts you follow to avoid confusion and decision fatigue.Our bodies are wired to respond to stress as a survival mechanism, but modern-day stressors—like emails and phone notifications—trigger the same physiological response as life-threatening situations. This prolonged fight-or-flight state shuts down essential functions like digestion, immune response, and detoxification, contributing to long-term health issues.Simple actions like deep breathing before meals, movement, quality nutrition, fresh air, and social connection can help regulate stress and improve overall well-being. Prioritizing sleep and establishing consistent routines further support mental and physical health.Supplements can be a powerful tool to add on, but they cannot take the place of other healthy lifestyle choices.QUOTES: (07:48) “No expert knows your body better than you do. We teach ourselves not to listen to our bodies, we outsource all of that to the rules, and we follow the rules and ignore the signs and communication coming from our bodies.” Jenn Trepeck(11:45) “The difference between a meal and a snack is how much we have at a time and how long till we might need to eat again.” Jenn Trepeck(21:33) “We've heard sitting is the new smoking. Right? The thing we're doing that we don't realize is slowly killing us because sitting all day is not human.” Jenn Trepeck(27:34) “The physiological response designed to save our lives now contributes to our demise.” Jenn Trepeck(42:54) “Anything we're doing for one part of the body supports everything in the body.” Jenn TrepeckRESOURCES:Become A Member of Salad with a Side of FriesJenn's Free Menu PlanA Salad With a Side of FriesA Salad With A Side Of Fries MerchA Salad With a Side of Fries InstagramTop Five Tips for Digesting Nutrition NewsNutrition Nugget: 30-30-30The Ultimate BiohackSleep On It 60 Second Health Quiz
