While Twitter was still seen as a platform for users to provide seemingly trivial updates, sociology graduate student Stephen Barnard began a decade-long deep dive into how the platform was reshaping journalism and democracy itself. This episode of the Public Health Insight Podcast explores Dr. Barnard's unexpected path into pioneering digital media research and his reflections on citizen journalism during the Ferguson protests and the dismantling of information gatekeeping that gave us today's media ecosystem.References for Our Discussion◼️ The new science of prebunking: how to inoculate against the spread of misinformation◼️Psychological inoculation improves resilience against misinformation on social media◼️STEPHEN R.

This week on the Optimal Protein Podcast, I'm thrilled to be joined once again by Dr. Don Layman, one of the world's foremost experts in protein metabolism and amino acid science. In this first part of our two-part conversation, we take a deep dive into the true definition of protein quality, the flaws of current scoring systems, and the metabolic significance of leucine as a primary trigger for muscle protein synthesis. Dr. Layman also introduces the EAA-9 protein quality model, a new way of evaluating protein sources that takes into account the body's exact essential amino acid requirements—moving beyond methods like PDCAAS. Get 20% off on the Tone LUX Crystal Red Light Therapy Mask Ketogenicgirl.com with the code VANESSA We also discuss: Why protein quality should be defined by amino acid content, not nitrogen How leucine “shows up in nature” in exact ratios that muscle recognizes The four key signals muscle responds to: energy, leucine, insulin, and IGF-1 What activates and suppresses mTOR, and why AMPK shuts down MPS in low energy states How protein turnover drives up to 20% of your resting metabolic rate The concept of metabolic prioritization and what happens when your diet lacks adequate EAAs Why the term “protein requirement” is misleading—and why we actually have amino acid requirements Dr. Layman's response to the 100 g of protein study on protein distribution  A preview of what's really happening during fat loss, and how muscle preservation strategies can make or break long-term success This episode is a masterclass in muscle metabolism, protein science, and the tools you need to optimize your nutrition—especially for fat loss and body recomposition.

GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Wegovy are changing how the medical system approaches obesity and metabolic disease. But are they a replacement for dietary intervention? Or are dietary interventions a replacement for these medications? Could they be used together for even better outcomes?In this conversation, Dr. David Ludwig (Harvard, Boston Children's Hospital) and journalist Gary Taubes explore the science behind GLP-1s, their impact on insulin, weight loss, and chronic disease, and where dietary strategies like low carb or ketogenic therapy fit in.They break down:The overlap between GLP-1 drugs and low carb dietsWhy long-term use of these drugs may come with hidden costsHow shared mechanisms open the door to combination therapyWhat current studies are missing and the urgent need for better trialsWhy metabolic health (not just weight loss) should be the focusThis conversation challenges the idea that the answer is either medication or nutrition therapy. The reality is that every individual is different, and for many, the most effective path to healing may involve a thoughtful combination of both. Rather than choosing one over the other, we should focus on tailoring care to the unique needs of each individual with the goal of getting the best outcomes.Expert Featured:Dr. David LudwigX: https://x.com/davidludwigmdGary Taubeshttps://x.com/garytaubeshttps://uncertaintyprinciples.substack.com/Follow our channel for more information and education from Bret Scher, MD, FACC, including interviews with leading experts in Metabolic Psychiatry.Learn more about metabolic psychiatry and find helpful resources at https://metabolicmind.org/About us:Metabolic Mind is a non-profit initiative of Baszucki Group working to transform the study and treatment of mental disorders by exploring the connection between metabolism and brain health.

Ever wondered why the diet and exercise plan that worked in your 30s & 40s suddenly feels like pushing a boulder uphill? You're not alone, and you're definitely not imagining things.When you hit your 40s, your body undergoes a profound shift that most diet plans completely ignore. The clean eating, calorie counting, carb-cutting, and intense workouts that may have helped you maintain your weight in your 20s and 30s can suddenly become frustratingly ineffective. This isn't a failure on your part – it's biology.In this deeply informative episode, I break down exactly why your old approaches stop working during perimenopause. We explore the five major biological shifts happening behind the scenes: fluctuating reproductive hormones, gradually slowing metabolism, natural muscle loss, increased stress response, and growing insulin resistance. These changes aren't visible on the surface but dramatically alter how your body processes food, stores fat, and responds to exercise.Traditional diet culture relies on outdated assumptions that simply don't apply to women in their 40s and beyond. Restrictive diets can actually worsen hormone imbalances and trigger stress responses that make weight loss nearly impossible. Instead, I share six powerful, science-backed strategies that work with your perimenopausal body instead of against it. You'll learn why balancing blood sugar, prioritising protein, reducing inflammation, strength training, managing stress, and personalising your nutrition are the keys to feeling energetic and maintaining a healthy weight during this transition.If you've been feeling frustrated, stuck, or betrayed by your changing body, this episode offers both validation and practical solutions. Your body hasn't given up on you – it's simply asking for a different approach. Listen now to discover how to work with your hormones, not against them, and reclaim your vitality, confidence, and wellbeing. Ready for real solutions?

After confronting severe illness, Jordan shed a career as a producer to walk the road of personal transformation, finding his medicine in shamanic study of plants. trees, breath and fasting. The “plant dieting” practices of the Amazon have radically transformed Jordan's life, vision, health and purpose and come to him primarily through Cocama elder, William Llerena Murayari. After 7 years of mentorship under Apache elder, Iron Eagle Joe, Jordan received the name Mockingbird and was given the blessing to teach through ceremony.

Dr Guido Frank discusses his research in the use of ketogenic diets to treat anorexia nervosa. Although, his research is at an early stage his results appear do appear promising. Anorexia is a disease which is one of the hardest psychiatric conditions of all to treat with a depressingly high mortality rate, so this work is of huge potential interest. Up to now, there has been no effective treatment for the disease and no medication has ever been approved for it.  Guido believes the critical key to treatment may lie in uncovering what happens in the brain chemistry of anorexic patients when they starve themselves. He argues by stopping eating, they actually put themselves into a ketogenic state, which calms their brain and makes them less anxious. But this has the consequence of stopping them wanting to eat again.  So Guido and his team wondered what would happen if they put anorexic patients into ketosis not by starvation, but  by feeding them a ketogenic diet. In an initial small study five anorexic patients who had regained weight but still had major food anxieties and concerns, were put on a ketogenic diet. Normally, in patients like this the relapse rate is around 50%, but in this case, all four patients who remained on the diet stayed healthy and the researchers also saw a dramatic reduction in their eating concerns and phobias. And Guido is now in the process of recruiting patients for a new study. So could this work offer a potentially successful approach to managing a  disease which has proved so intractable to treat?

In this episode, I'm diving into aggressive dieting—yep, that thing you probably assume I hate. But here's the twist: I don't think it's always bad. In fact, for the right person, it can actually be a smart move.I break down some of the biggest myths around it—like the idea that more aggressive always means more hunger (it doesn't), or that fast weight loss guarantees rebound weight gain (also not true).I chat through what actually makes an aggressive phase work: a solid day on the plate, a decent relationship with food, and most importantly, an escape plan—because the real problem isn't the diet itself, it's what happens after.And like always, timing and flexibility are key. If life's a mess, it's probably not the right time to tighten the reins. But if you've got the foundation in place? Going a little harder for a short window can work really well.Time Stamps:00:00 Introduction to Aggressive Dieting04:55 Understanding Weight Loss DynamicsClick me for show notes!

Story at-a-glance Women who ate more whole fruits, vegetables, legumes and whole grains in their 40s and 50s had up to 31% better odds of aging without disease or decline Diets high in white bread, sugary snacks and processed carbs were linked to significantly worse mental, physical and metabolic health in older age Eating carbs with little fiber, typical of most processed foods, was tied to a 29% drop in the chance of healthy aging across all categories Consistent intake of high-quality carbs over many years had a stronger effect on aging than temporary diet changes made later in life If your gut is compromised, even healthy carbs cause problems, so start with simple carbs like fruit and white rice, then reintroduce fiber slowly once your gut heals

Episode 3043: Many traditional diets share key traits like rich sources of fat-soluble vitamins and the absence of processed foods, but Ben Greenfield highlights why your ideal diet depends heavily on your unique genetics. From amylase production to ApoE variants and vitamin A conversion, this piece reveals how ancestral eating patterns and individual gene expression shape the best nutritional approach for your body. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://bengreenfieldlife.com/article/nutrition-articles/how-to-figure-out-what-diet-is-right-for-you/ Quotes to ponder: "The more AMY1 copies you've inherited (and the more of this enzyme you produce as a result), the better your starch-metabolizing capabilities will be." "Depending on what you inherited from your parents, you'll carry a combination of any two ApoE variants: ApoE2, ApoE3, or ApoE4." "Two common mutations on the BCM01 gene, which helps govern the beta-carotene-to-vitamin-A conversion process, make it nearly impossible to get enough vitamin A from the plant kingdom alone."

What if that “healthy” salad is actually wrecking your system—while supercharging someone else? In this episode of The Healthier Tech Podcast, we explore the wild, wonderful, and slightly weird world of personalized nutrition—where AI meets DNA, and your meals are no longer based on food pyramids and health trends, but on your biology. We break down the science and philosophy of this fast-growing field, including: Why two people eating the same food can have completely different outcomes How AI-powered apps can now recommend meals based on your sleep, stress, and blood sugar What your genes are secretly telling you about your metabolism, cravings, and vitamin needs The powerful promise of tech-driven food freedom—and where it all starts to get a little creepy But this episode doesn't stop at the shiny stuff. We take a deep look at the ethical minefield underneath the surface: Who really owns your genetic and biometric data? Can you really trust the algorithms telling you what to eat?

Episode 3043: Many traditional diets share key traits like rich sources of fat-soluble vitamins and the absence of processed foods, but Ben Greenfield highlights why your ideal diet depends heavily on your unique genetics. From amylase production to ApoE variants and vitamin A conversion, this piece reveals how ancestral eating patterns and individual gene expression shape the best nutritional approach for your body. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://bengreenfieldlife.com/article/nutrition-articles/how-to-figure-out-what-diet-is-right-for-you/ Quotes to ponder: "The more AMY1 copies you've inherited (and the more of this enzyme you produce as a result), the better your starch-metabolizing capabilities will be." "Depending on what you inherited from your parents, you'll carry a combination of any two ApoE variants: ApoE2, ApoE3, or ApoE4." "Two common mutations on the BCM01 gene, which helps govern the beta-carotene-to-vitamin-A conversion process, make it nearly impossible to get enough vitamin A from the plant kingdom alone."

Hey warrior, does it feel like you've ried every food plan, every tracker, every “reset”... and still feel stuck?

You're doing the work. You're being consistent. You know things are changing…But then you take a photo and think, ‘I still look fat.'Welcome to the messy middle. The part no one talks about. It's not exciting. It's not dramatic. It's just hard. And boring. And where you're most likely to quit on yourself. In this episode, we're getting real about:Why this part of the journey feels so uncomfortableThe emotional rollercoaster of “I've changed!” vs “I still look fat”What to do when your body is changing but your mind hasn't caught upHow to keep going when it feels like nothing is working

This episode was recorded at the 2025 Florida Ruminant Nutrition Symposium. Dr. Bach gives an overview of his presentation, highlighting that buffers make the rumen resistant to a decrease in pH while alkalizers immediately increase rumen pH. He prefers magnesium oxide, an alkalizer, over sodium bicarbonate, a buffer. Both are effective, but sodium bicarbonate requires a larger amount, thus taking up more room in the diet. The magnesium oxide must be of high quality and soluble in the rumen. (3:40)Dr. Richards asks if we should use magnesium oxide more as a first line of defense against acidosis. Dr. Bach notes that the very best strategy is to avoid using either additive by making a proper ration balanced in terms of amount and rate of degradation of starch. But there are many constraints in the field, so he recommends using magnesium oxide before sodium bicarbonate. For the magnesium oxide to be effective, it must be solubilized in the rumen to magnesium hydroxide, and solubility can be tested in a variety of ways to determine quality. (7:35)The panel discusses the impact of magnesium oxide in place of sodium bicarbonate on DCAD and which DCAD equation(s) should be used for calculations. Dr. Bach recommends removing sodium bicarbonate from rations containing less than 1% of the ingredient. It will have little effect on the rumen, but make room in the ration. The panel explores how this can impact farm-level economics. (12:39)Dr. Bach also mentions probiotics and their impact on rumen function. In vitro studies have shown a wide variety of modes of action and positive results. Extrapolating in vitro doses to the cow often results in unsustainable amounts of the additive needing to be fed. Applied studies at the cow level have yielded inconsistent results. (23:29)Scott asks how long Dr. Bach has been making the case for pulling sodium bicarbonate out and putting magnesium oxide in, and what kind of pushback he has received. Dr. Bach gives some of the reasons farmers have given for not wanting to make this management change. He also notes that farmers who do make the switch do not tend to go back to sodium bicarbonate. (25:18)Dr. Bach and Maimie discuss grass silage diets and grazing diets with high amounts of moisture and how best to combat acidosis symptoms with those. In diets like this, where you're not trying to make room for energy, sodium bicarbonate can be a good choice. Dr. Richards chimes in with questions about the ratio of the two ingredients; Dr. Bach indicates the ratio doesn't mean much to him. (26:16)Panelists share their take-home thoughts.

For decades, dietary guidelines—and the Food Pyramid in particular—have been at the center of heated debates and considerable controversy. These guidelines have often been accused of being influenced by industry interests, oversimplifying nutritional nuance, or even directly contributing to rising obesity and metabolic disease rates. In this episode, we critically assess common claims surrounding the Food Pyramid, including whether it was truly shaped by vested industry interests, if it encouraged harmful dietary shifts toward excessive carbohydrate and sugar consumption, and whether the subsequent health outcomes seen at the population level can be fairly attributed to these guidelines. Additionally, we evaluate the role of the sugar industry in funding key studies and publications, examining the implications such conflicts of interest may have had on nutritional science. Drawing on historical context, rigorous examination of scientific evidence, and an evaluation of how nutritional recommendations have evolved, this discussion aims to clarify misunderstandings, highlight legitimate criticisms, and separate fact from persistent myths regarding dietary guidance and its implications for health.
