Podcasts about Creatine

Rachel Zoe checks in and opens up about how her freshman season of RHOBH is really going, what she finds the most unexpected and the unlikely advice Miss Lisa Rinna gave her to prepare for the tornado that is Housewives. Jennifer Aydin shares a little too much information which reveals one thing, she is delusional, for lack of a better word as we try our very best to be nice in the New Year, about a lot of things. Try seems to be the key word. Last, but not least, a leaked email reveals all sorts of shocking things about Meredith Marks we just cannot seem to get enough of. @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope  BROUGHT TO YOU BY: QUINCE - quince.com/velvetrope (Get Free Shipping and 365 Day Returns to As You Indulge In Affordable Luxury)  GROW THERAPY - GrowTherapy.com/VELVET (Whatever Challenges You're Facing, Grow Therapy Is Here To Help) MOOD - www.mood.com/velvet (20% Off With Code Velvet on Federally Legal THC Shipped Right To Your Door) MOMENTOUS - livemomentous.com (Use Code VELVET For 35% Off Your First Order on Creatine, Protein, Omega-3 Or Any Momentous Products) PROGRESSIVE - www.progressive.com (Visit Progressive.com To See If You Could Save On Car Insurance) ADVERTISING INQUIRIES - Please contact David@advertising-execs.com MERCH Available at - https://www.teepublic.com/stores/behind-the-velvet-rope?ref_id=13198 Learn more about your ad choices.

Creatine is a hot subject right now, but I'm guessing you might not know as much about it as you could. Well step into a new creatine masterclass with our friends from Qualia. This episode shows you why it is not just for muscle, but one of the most powerful and well studied upgrades for brain energy, metabolism, sleep resilience, and long term human performance. You will learn how creatine supports mitochondria, buffers ATP, reduces cravings, and helps you think, train, and recover with more energy instead of relying on willpower. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Greg Kelly for a deep, practical masterclass on creatine and energy biology. Greg Kelly is a naturopathic physician, functional medicine expert, and longtime researcher in supplements and nootropics. He has spent decades studying creatine, mitochondrial function, cognition, and performance, and has contributed to peer reviewed research while working directly with athletes, clinicians, and high performers. Together, Dave and Greg break down how creatine works at the cellular level, why it matters for cognition, emotional regulation, and metabolism, and how it supports the brain and body during stress, sleep deprivation, dieting, and recovery. They explore neuroplasticity, ATP production, magnesium, methylation, and why energy availability drives discipline, focus, and resilience more effectively than willpower alone. They also explain why creatine matters for women, aging adults, and people dealing with fatigue or obesity, and how creatine supports brain function even when muscle mass is low. This conversation connects bodybuilding research with modern longevity science, nootropics, functional medicine, and sleep optimization. Dave and Greg also expose why creatine quality matters, how contaminants can impair mitochondrial function, why some products fail label claims, and how to choose forms that absorb better and cause less bloating. Practical strategies like dosing, timing, stacking with magnesium, and using creatine with hot coffee are all covered, including why Dave uses it with Danger Coffee as part of his Smarter Not Harder approach. You'll Learn: • Why creatine acts as an ATP buffer for both muscles and the brain • How mitochondria drive cognition, metabolism, and emotional regulation • The real dosing debate from low daily maintenance to higher cognitive doses • Why women often need more creatine than men • How creatine supports performance during sleep deprivation and sleep debt • The link between magnesium, creatine phosphate, and ATP production • How methylation and TMG relate to creatine synthesis and timing • Why creatine can reduce cravings by improving cellular energy • How low quality creatine and contaminants can damage mitochondrial function • When creatine matters most for longevity, resilience, and human performance Dave Asprey is a four time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking. With over 1,000 interviews and 1 million monthly listeners, The Human Upgrade is the top podcast for people who want to take control of their biology, extend their longevity, and optimize every system in the body and mind. Each episode features cutting edge insights in health, performance, neuroscience, supplements, nutrition, hacking, emotional intelligence, and conscious living.

I am delighted to have Dr. Austin Lake with me for a two-part series. In Part 1, we discussed women's health, exploring the importance of informed consent around birth control and of finding the root cause of why it was prescribed for you. Today, in Part 2, we cover many topics, including microplastics, praying before meals, deep breathing, supplements, faith, and nicotine. If you have not done so already, please listen to Part 1 first. Ways to regulate your nervous system: Shift into slow, diaphragmatic breathing when your body feels tense or overstimulated Make mealtimes a seated, unhurried ritual instead of something done on the move Reinforce your nervous system balance with proper hydration, minerals, and sufficient magnesium Build small moments of gratitude and prayer into your daily routine Bio: Dr. Austin Lake Dr. Austin Lake is a functional medicine provider, health educator, and founder of Wholly Health, a transformative health program that helps individuals restore energy, balance hormones, and reclaim health using holistic, evidence-based strategies.  He holds a doctorate in physiotherapy, a bachelor's degree in exercise physiology, and board certification in functional medicine.  He has guided thousands of clients through challenges like chronic fatigue, weight struggles, autoimmune disorders, thyroid imbalances, and metabolic dysfunction—addressing the true root causes rather than masking symptoms with pharmaceuticals or medical procedures.  His passion for holistic health was born out of personal experience: watching his brother battle leukemia, his father suffer multiple heart attacks, and his mother live with autoimmune disease. These trials forged a mission to uncover why people get sick—and how to truly heal.  Grounded in biblical principles, Dr. Lake's approach integrates faith, science, and natural healing. He empowers individuals to break free from the cycle of prescription dependency and to steward their health with intention. With a following of about 1.5 million across social media platforms, his work reaches a global audience with practical insights, myth-busting education, and faith-driven encouragement.  When not working with clients or educating online, Dr. Lake enjoys time with his wife, Carlie, and their four children, where they live a simple, natural life centered around faith, family, and wellness. He is also a passionate advocate for homeschooling and equipping the next generation for healthy, purpose-filled lives. His mission is simple: to help people reclaim their health, their vitality, and their God-given potential—one life at a time. In this episode: The importance of filtering your water at home Tips for regulating the nervous system Why women on birth control must follow a healthy diet, take quality supplements, and be intentional with their daily routines and rhythms Some advice for women trying to conceive Why antioxidants are essential for women who want to conceive What are the benefits of nicotine?

From microplastics in your brain to multivitamins that actually work, Dr. Rhonda Patrick of FoundMyFitness separates real science from wellness hype here!Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1267What We Discuss with Dr. Rhonda Patrick:Microplastics are accumulating in our brains at up to 10 times more than other organs, and studies show people with Alzheimer's disease had up to 10 times more microplastics in their brains than those without, suggesting these invisible particles may be driving neuroinflammation and cognitive decline.That "BPA-free" label on your water bottle is essentially a marketing sleight of hand. Companies simply replaced BPA with BPS — a chemical now proven to be just as harmful as its predecessor, still disrupting hormones and leaching into everything you drink.Screens and phones are the new sitting (which was the new smoking). Early screen time exposure in children is now linked to depression, mental illness, and even sensory processing issues later in life — and the dopamine-hijacking effects mirror how hyper-palatable processed foods rewire taste preferences.A basic Centrum Silver multivitamin taken daily for two years delayed global brain aging by over two years and episodic memory decline by nearly five years in older adults, contradicting decades of "expensive urine" dismissals from the medical community.Your brain's best friend might be sitting in your gym bag. Creatine at 10 grams daily accumulates in brain tissue, eliminates afternoon energy crashes, and supercharges cognitive performance under stress — a cheap, evidence-backed hack anyone can start today.And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!

You're about to learn how government approved food policies, regulatory loopholes, and corporate lobbying have quietly reshaped what's allowed in the food supply and why these decisions are driving chronic inflammation, immune dysfunction, and neurological breakdown at scale. This episode exposes how biotoxins, ultra processed ingredients, and systemic regulatory failures contribute to long COVID, POTS, mold illness, chronic fatigue, and dysautonomia and why so many people feel sick despite following official health guidance. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Dr. Will Cole, a functional medicine expert who works extensively with autoimmune disease, mold illness, hormonal dysfunction, digestive disorders, and complex brain related symptoms. Dr. Cole brings years of clinical experience analyzing lab data and treating patients with biotoxin exposure, neuro immune dysregulation, and chronic fatigue patterns. Together, they connect the dots between mold exposure, post viral illness, mast cell activation, low blood pressure, and why many people with long COVID or POTS feel dizzy, inflamed, and cognitively impaired. They explain how histamine overload, electrolyte depletion, cortisol imbalance, and genetics combine to disrupt blood flow to the brain and shut down human performance. The conversation focuses on practical functional medicine and biohacking tools that help rebuild resilience at the mitochondrial and nervous system level. You'll Learn: • Why long COVID, mold illness, POTS, and chronic fatigue often share the same biological drivers • How biotoxins like mold and viral exposure dysregulate the neuro immune endocrine axis • Why low blood pressure reduces blood flow to the brain and causes brain fog and fatigue • What mast cell activation syndrome is and how histamine overload affects the body and brain • Why electrolytes, especially sodium, potassium, and magnesium, are foundational for recovery • How creatine supports brain energy, hydration, and mitochondrial function • The role of cortisol in inflammation, stress tolerance, and nervous system stability • When antihistamines and mast cell stabilizers can improve quality of life • How nicotine acts as a low dose neuroprotective compound when used carefully • The benefits and risks of methylene blue for mitochondrial and cognitive support • Why removing the trigger matters more than chasing symptoms • How a functional medicine approach rebuilds resilience instead of masking dysfunction • Why creatine absorption improves when added to hot coffee • How Danger Coffee fits into performance, hydration, and brain energy Thank you to our sponsors! - IGNITON | Go to http://igniton.com/ and use code DAVE for 15% off your first order. -TRU KAVA | Go to https://trukava.com/ and use code DAVE10 for 10% off. -Caldera + Lab | Go to https://calderalab.com/DAVE and use code DAVE at checkout for 20% off your first order. -LYMA | Go to https://lyma.sjv.io/gOQ545 and use code DAVE10 for 10% off the LYMA Laser.

Today, we're diving into an exciting development in obesity treatment—oral semaglutide.  Last week, the FDA approved Novo Nordisk's Wegovy pill as the first and only oral GLP-1 for weight loss in adults. This approval is based on results from the OASIS-4 phase 3 clinical trial showing that a once-daily oral version of semaglutide can deliver nearly the same weight loss results as the injectable form.  So, what does that really mean for patients and treatment options?

This solo cast was such a joy to record, because I am ending 2025 with a fire in my chest about what actually shapes our lives. I dive into the truth that your habits are profiling you every single day and that discipline is really about having an identity so clear you stop negotiating with your feelings. I talk about timelines, personal responsibility, the habits I have made non negotiable and the real shifts that happened when I stopped treating my future self like a stranger.I break down the practices that have changed my body, my mindset and my nervous system this year, from lifting heavy to creatine to peptides to sleep optimization to meditation to walking and, yes, fun. I share how these choices have rewired my confidence, sharpened my intuition and helped me keep the gains I have worked so hard for. This episode is equal parts science, spirituality and loving kick in the ass, because you are far more in control than you think. The life you want is built from the habits you keep.Highlights: (01:15) The truth about timelines and why my habits were deciding my future (04:30) The identity shift that makes discipline easier than feelings (06:40) Weightlifting, confidence and the moment I realized my body had changed (10:19) Creatine, peptides and the longevity practices I swear by (12:55) Sleep, meditation and the seven minute gratitude rule (15:11) Why walking, movement and fun have become my secret sauceQualia Mind - click hereCoupon Code: SHOCKANDYALL (15% off any purchase)Visit Nicole's on demand fitness platform for live weekly classes and a recorded library of yoga, strength training, guided audio meditations and mobility (Kinstretch) classes, as well: https://www.sweatandstillness.comGrab Nicole's bestselling children's book and enter your email for A FREE GIFT: https://www.yolkedbook.comFind Nicole on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/nicolesciacca/Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thenicolesciaccaFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/nicolesciaccayoga/Youtube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1X8PPWCQa2werd4unex1eAPractice yoga with Nicole in person in Santa Monica, CA at Aviator Nation Ride.

Hello my friends, Dr. Deb here —your favorite dietitian and doctor of clinical nutrition and today we're diving into a supplement that has been hiding in plain sight for decades. In fact, I went to a special session on it back in 1995 at the National Institute of Health in its' new area of interest- sports nutrition. This supplement is powerful, it's safe, it's backed by mountains of research… and yet so many people — especially women — have no idea how beneficial it really is. Yes, indeed. I'm talking about creatine.Now, before you picture giant bodybuilders flexing in mirrors, let me assure you: creatine is not just a “gym bro” supplement. Creatine is for brains, bones, and bodies of every age. Creatine is for moms, dads, grandparents, and yes — even the people who say, “I'm not really a workout person.”And get this: creatine is one of the MOST researched supplements in the world. Thousands of studies. Decades of data. And the results are consistently impressive on its results and safety.So today we're exploring how creatine supports both physical and cognitive health — for women and men — and especially why it matters even more as we age.

Katie Ginella's plan to return to the OC is in full effect. RHOBH is having a season but fans still seem to have a lot of issues with Kyle as her and Dorit are heading towards blows. Erika tries to start over again. Joey Gorga refuses to do one major thing with Teresa and Luis. Last, but not least, we uncover the real reasons RHONJ is still on pause.  @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope  BROUGHT TO YOU BY: MICROPERFUMES - microperfumes.com/velvet (Up To 60% Your Favorite Perfumes In Pocket Sized Vials) QUINCE - quince.com/velvetrope (Get Free Shipping and 365 Day Returns To As You Indulge In Affordable Luxury) MOMENTOUS - livemomentous.com (Use Code VELVET For 35% Off Your First Order on Creatine, Protein, Omega-3 Or Any Momentous Products) MOOD - www.mood.com/velvet (20% Off With Code Velvet on Federally Legal THC Shipped Right To Your Door) RAKUTEN - rakuten.co.uk (Go To Rakuten.co.uk, Download The App Or Install The Browser Extension To Earn Cash Back While You Shop At All Your Favorite Stores) PROGRESSIVE - www.progressive.com (Visit Progressive.com To See If You Could Save On Car Insurance) ADVERTISING INQUIRIES - Please contact David@advertising-execs.com MERCH Available at - https://www.teepublic.com/stores/behind-the-velvet-rope?ref_id=13198 Learn more about your ad choices.

Episode Description You trust that expensive fish oil is molecularly distilled and free from mercury. You believe your magnesium is actually absorbed. You assume your creatine is pure pharmaceutical-grade powder. But can these brands prove it—or are you swallowing contaminated, oxidized, low-potency supplements that do more harm than good? Dr. Christian Gonzalez investigated the supplement industry with one critical question: can the most popular longevity supplements prove they're free from heavy metals, microplastics, and oxidation through third-party testing and Certificates of Analysis (COAs)? The shocking reality? Most can't—or won't—provide basic proof of purity. You're expected to trust your mitochondria, brain health, and long-term performance to manufacturers who refuse transparency about what's actually in the bottle. The hidden dangers lurking in "premium" supplements: • Fish oils contaminated with mercury, lead, microplastics, and oxidized rancid fats that trigger inflammation instead of reducing it • Magnesium oxide marketed as "magnesium" with 4% absorption—meaning you're literally flushing your money down the toilet • Creatine cut with heavy metals, banned substances, and fillers that negate performance benefits and contaminate your system • Vitamin D formulated in seed oils and synthetic carriers that interfere with absorption and create inflammatory byproducts • Fiber supplements loaded with inulin blends and maltodextrin that spike blood sugar and cause severe digestive distress • Zero verification of potency claims—dosages listed on labels that have no relationship to what third-party testing reveals inside • Supplements stored in conditions that degrade active ingredients months before expiration dates In this episode, Dr. Christian Gonzalez reveals: • The 5 most studied supplements for longevity, brain power, and energy—and exactly how to buy the cleanest versions • Why Omega-3 fish oils are either your greatest longevity tool or a toxic inflammatory bomb depending on purity testing • The one form of magnesium that actually works (and the three forms that are complete scams stealing your money) • How creatine monohydrate boosts ATP in your muscles AND brain—but only if it passes strict third-party certification • Why Vitamin D without K2 can calcify your arteries while you think you're "optimizing" your health • The soluble fiber that lowers all-cause mortality by 11%—and why most fiber supplements use the wrong type • Exact evidence-based doses, timing strategies, and quality markers so you never waste money on fairy dust formulas again • The certifications that actually matter: IFOS, NSF, Informed Sport, Creapure, and why "GMP certified" means nothing • How to read COAs and spot red flags in oxidation scores, heavy metal panels, and microplastic screening This episode goes beyond basic supplementation—it's about understanding that your cellular membranes, mitochondrial function, and long-term disease prevention depend on purity, not marketing. It's about demanding proof before putting daily supplements into your body, and recognizing that the supplement industry profits from your trust, not your health outcomes. The supplement industry doesn't want you asking for COAs. But your brain, heart, and longevity depend on it.

In this episode of GynoCurious, Dr. Amy Novatt goes solo to talk about the supplement creatine and its potential role for women navigating perimenopause and menopause. With the wellness space buzzing about creatine, Dr. Novatt breaks down what creatine is, how it's produced in the body, and the types of foods that contain it. She explores the science behind creatine supplementation, especially in the context of muscle performance and energy metabolism, and addresses the question on many women's minds: can creatine help protect muscles and bones during menopause? Dr. Novatt reviews current research, highlighting that while creatine may offer small improvements in lean mass and strength when combined with resistance training, it is not a magic bullet—taking it alone is unlikely to yield significant benefits. She also discusses individual variability in response and potential side effects, emphasizing the importance of third-party tested supplements and consulting a doctor before starting any new regimen. Ultimately, Dr. Novatt's bottom line is clear: consistent resistance training and a balanced lifestyle are the best investments for menopausal health, with creatine possibly playing a minor, supportive role as science continues to evolve.

Today we're talking about sleep — something that affects every system in the body, yet is often overlooked until it becomes a problem. Not just how many hours you're in bed, but how deeply you sleep, how well your body restores overnight, and whether you actually wake up feeling rested.  We're also going to talk about a peptide that's been getting more attention in the wellness space for sleep support: DSIP, or Delta Sleep–Inducing Peptide.

Kyle is not speaking to Dorit, has thrown daggers her way and now has come out as unequivocally “Team PK”. Dolores slams an RHOSLC cast member and Tamra remains clueless regarding her own double standards which grow more out of control by the day. This season of RHOBH moves along with Sutton very hurt, Erika ready to face her legal issues and two newbies who are causing quite a stir. Finally, over in RHOP land, Angel fights back, Ashley gets busy and Monique holds her own. @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope  BROUGHT TO YOU BY: MICROPERFUMES - microperfumes.com/velvet (Up To 60% Your Favorite Perfumes In Pocket Sized Vials) QUINCE - quince.com/velvetrope (Get Free Shipping and 365 Day Returns To As You Indulge In Affordable Luxury) MOMENTOUS - livemomentous.com (Use Code VELVET For 35% Off Your First Order on Creatine, Protein, Omega-3 Or Any Momentous Products) MOOD - www.mood.com/velvet (20% Off With Code Velvet on Federally Legal THC Shipped Right To Your Door) RAKUTEN - rakuten.co.uk (Go To Rakuten.co.uk, Download The App Or Install The Browser Extension To Earn Cash Back While You Shop At All Your Favorite Stores) PROGRESSIVE - www.progressive.com (Visit Progressive.com To See If You Could Save On Car Insurance) ADVERTISING INQUIRIES - Please contact David@advertising-execs.com MERCH Available at - https://www.teepublic.com/stores/behind-the-velvet-rope?ref_id=13198 Learn more about your ad choices.

On this hard-hitting episode of Start Today, I bring back Jay Campbell to expose what's really happening behind the scenes with peptides, GLP-1 drugs, and Big Pharma's quiet push to shut down affordable optimization. We break down why January could change everything—from access restrictions to rising costs—and what men need to know now before the window closes.  We also get into why Ozempic is already obsolete, what's coming next with GLP-3s, how peptides actually work, and the three non-negotiables for men who want strength, clarity, and longevity. No hype. No shortcuts. Just real talk you won't hear from your doctor.  

Jeff Lewis has had his fair share of drama this year and it seems he is finally fighting back. Things get darker for MJ and Tommy with daggers and threats bring thrown back and forth. Kyle Richards is madly in love and Dorit seems to have a few strong opinions about a lot of things. Dolores is outraged, speechless and heartbroken. Last, but not least, the VPR reboot suffers poor, some say horrible, ratings but Lisa Vanderpump says all is good. @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope  BROUGHT TO YOU BY: MICROPERFUMES - microperfumes.com/velvet (Up To 60% Your Favorite Perfumes In Pocket Sized Vials) QUINCE - quince.com/velvetrope (Get Free Shipping and 365 Day Returns To As You Indulge In Affordable Luxury) MOMENTOUS - livemomentous.com (Use Code VELVET For 35% Off Your First Order on Creatine, Protein, Omega-3 Or Any Momentous Products) MOOD - www.mood.com/velvet (20% Off With Code Velvet on Federally Legal THC Shipped Right To Your Door) RAKUTEN - rakuten.co.uk (Go To Rakuten.co.uk, Download The App Or Install The Browser Extension To Earn Cash Back While You Shop At All Your Favorite Stores) PROGRESSIVE - www.progressive.com (Visit Progressive.com To See If You Could Save On Car Insurance) ADVERTISING INQUIRIES - Please contact David@advertising-execs.com MERCH Available at - https://www.teepublic.com/stores/behind-the-velvet-rope?ref_id=13198 Learn more about your ad choices.

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 12-18-2025: Dr. Dawn opens by examining how market competition is actually working in the weight loss drug sector. Novo Nordisk's Ozempic and Wegovy compete against Eli Lilly's Monjaro and ZepBound, with prices dropping nearly 50% as companies launch direct-to-consumer websites. The main barriers remain needles and refrigeration, driving development of oral versions. Novo's Wegovy pill awaits FDA approval for early 2026 launch at $150 monthly. Next-generation drugs show remarkable results: Eli's retatrutide causes 24% weight loss in 48 weeks, while Novo's Cagrisema combines semaglutide with amylin to reduce muscle loss. Pfizer paid $10 billion for Metsera's once-monthly drug despite significant side effects. A quick fiber tip suggests adding plain psyllium to morning coffee for cardiovascular and microbiome benefits. Start with half a teaspoon and work up to two teaspoons (10 grams) over several weeks to avoid gas. The prebiotic fiber improves glucose tolerance and may reduce cancer risk. UC San Diego scientists discovered why cancers mutate so rapidly despite being eukaryotic cells with protected chromosomes. The answer is chromothripsis, a catastrophic event where the enzyme N4BP2 literally explodes chromosomes into fragments. These reassemble incorrectly, generating dozens to hundreds of mutations simultaneously and creating circular DNA fragments carrying cancer-promoting genes. One in four cancers show evidence of this mechanism, with all osteosarcomas and many brain cancers displaying it. This explains why the most aggressive cancers resist treatment. Research from 2013 shows any glucocorticoid use significantly increases venous thromboembolism risk, with threefold increases during the first month of use. The risk applies to new and recurrent clots, affecting both oral and inhaled steroids, though IV poses highest risk and topical the lowest. Joint injections fall somewhere between inhaled and oral. Anyone with prior blood clots should avoid steroids except for life-threatening situations like severe asthma attacks requiring ventilation. A meta-analysis of 20 randomized controlled trials shows creatine supplementation helps older adults (48-84) maintain muscle mass when combined with weight training two to three times weekly. The supplement provides no benefit without exercise. Recommended dosing starts at 2 grams and works up to 5 grams daily. Vegans benefit most since they consume little meat or fish. Important caveat: creatine throws off standard kidney function tests (creatinine), so users should request cystatin C testing instead for accurate renal health assessment. A new JAMA study suggesting risk-based mammogram screening is fatally flawed. First, researchers offered chemopreventative drugs like tamoxifen only to the high-risk group, contaminating the study design. Second, the demographics skewed heavily toward white college-educated women, missing the reality that Black women face twice the risk of aggressive breast cancer with 40% higher mortality. Third, wild-type humans failed to follow instructions—low-risk women continued getting annual mammograms anyway while high-risk women skipped recommended extra screenings. The conclusion of "non-inferior" outcomes is meaningless given poor adherence. Stick with annual mammograms, and consider alternating with MRIs for high-risk women. The EAT-Lancet report condemns red meat based purely on observational data showing correlations with heart disease, cancer, and mortality. But people who eat lots of red meat differ dramatically from low consumers: they weigh more, smoke more, exercise less, and eat less fiber. Studies can't control for sleep quality, depression, or screen time. Notably, heavy meat eaters also die more in accidents, suggesting a risk-taking lifestyle phenotype. The inflammatory marker TMAO is higher in meat eaters, but starch is also pro-inflammatory. Eating red meat instead of instant ramen might improve health. A balanced diet with limited amounts beats epidemiology-based blanket statements. Dr. Dawn grades Dr. Oz's performance as CMS administrator. Starting at minus one for zero relevant experience, he earns plus two for promoting diet, exercise, and gut health on his show. He studied intensively after nomination, calling all four previous CMS directors repeatedly and surrounding himself with experienced staff (plus one). He finalized Medicare rules favoring prevention over surgery and earned bipartisan praise as "a real scientist, not radical" (plus one). He divested healthcare holdings but kept some blind trust interests (minus 0.5). He's developing a CMS app and partnering with Google on a digital health ecosystem (plus one), but supports ending ACA subsidies that will raise premiums for millions (minus one). He correctly promoted COVID vaccines and contradicted Trump's Tylenol-autism claims (plus one). Final score: 3.5 out of 5 possible points, the only positive score for any Trump health administrator.

This week, Jason is joined by returning guest and one of the most influential leaders in real estate, Ryan Serhant! He is the co-founder and CEO of Serhant, now home to more than 1,500 agents with growth that has doubled year over year. He's built one of the most followed and powerful real estate brands in the world with over 9 million followers across all social media. Most importantly, he is back on Netflix with season two of Owning Manhattan, showing a more competitive, more ambitious and more strategic side as he expands his empire beyond Manhattan in battles in the most cutthroat luxury real estate market in the world. Ryan breaks down the current state of the real estate market and why the way people think about homeownership needs to evolve. He explains which markets remain stronger than ever, how banks are underwriting loans right now, and why it feels like everyone works for the government. Ryan shares his perspective on a potential rent freeze in New York, whether he'd ever consider going into politics, and the surprising parallel between divorce rates and the Fed lowering interest rates. He also unpacks the two largest referral sources in the U.S., why fear is often the only driver of lower prices, and how he approaches building trust in volatile markets. On the creative side, Ryan dives into creating a TV show no one has seen before, valuing the viewer's time, launching a new genre of reality TV with season two of Owning Manhattan, the movie that inspired part of the show's opening, and how Netflix checks compare to Bravo. He closes by sharing how he handles public attacks on his character, the four P's, and why choosing to be an open book has been central to his success. Ryan reveals all this and so much more in another episode you can't afford to miss!
