In this episode of the We Are Women Podcast, Janeen Vosper speaks with Sandra Zeldes, founder of Eat Like A Goddess, about the hidden struggles many successful women face when it comes to food, weight, and self-care. Despite excelling in business and leadership, countless women quietly battle cravings, exhaustion, and shame about their bodies—cycles that traditional diets and willpower rarely solve. Sandra shares how years of chronic stress and even unhealed trauma often drive these struggles. When left unresolved, these invisible forces sabotage well-being and success, keeping women stuck in patterns of burnout and self-sabotage. Through her work, Sandra helps women break free by addressing root causes, not just surface-level strategies. Using tools like EFT tapping, she shows how to rewire subconscious responses, reduce stress, and create a new relationship with food and body. Instead of relying on restrictive diets or pushing harder—approaches that backfire and reinforce feelings of failure—Sandra advocates for a gentler, sustainable path. She teaches women to shift from deprivation to ease, reconnect with their intuition, and learn to listen to the body's wisdom. By reframing weight struggles as protective patterns rather than personal failures, women can finally release shame and embrace self-care with confidence. Sandra explains that success in both health and business doesn't come from force but from flow. The same drive that helps women thrive professionally can work against them when it comes to healing. True transformation happens when we let go of what blocks us, rather than pushing through.

Anita, 67 years old, has lost about 150 pounds. She was overweight as a toddler and spent the vast majority of her life being morbidly obese. Anita began her dieting 'career' at age 12 when her Mom brought her to a Weight Watcher's meeting. After that, it was decades of yo yo dieting and trying every new thing that came out. In her early 50's, weighing about 320 lbs, Anita started low carb (Atkins type diet), then found keto and then found carnivore. In this, Anita has a purpose in life and that is to make sure that both men and women who are her age and have given up on life can hear that it is never too late. She achieves this by sharing cooking recipes on youtube (KetogenicWoman), as well as info that she hopes is educational and informative on a weekly livestream. Anita is currently writing a book 'Carnivore for Ageless Living' that will be published hopefully in late 2026. Anita is on zero medications, has no health issues other than arthritis in her left knee. She even cancelled her scheduled knee surgery and has been managing her pain by following a clean diet of meat, eggs and sardines!

In this episode, Jeff Sarris and Jill Harris discuss the complexities of dietary advice for kidney stone prevention. They explore the confusion caused by varying expert opinions on diets, the importance of finding a personalized approach, and the necessity of moderation in dietary choices. Jill emphasizes that successful weight loss and health improvements come from setting realistic goals and understanding individual health conditions rather than following restrictive diets.TakeawaysThe only reason we're here is to help you prevent kidney stones.Many diets have good data behind them, but they may not work for everyone.The kidney stone diet is a set of goals tailored to individual lifestyles.Plateaus in weight loss are normal and require adjustments in diet and exercise.Moderation is key; extreme diets can lead to health issues.Personalized dietary approaches are essential for long-term success.Many popular diets may not be practical for the average person.Chronic diseases can often be managed through dietary changes.It's important to find a sustainable diet that fits your medical conditions.Creating a lifestyle change is more effective than seeking quick fixes.00:00 Introduction to Kidney Stone Diets01:19 The Confusion of Diets and Expert Opinions04:15 The Importance of Personalization in Diets07:29 Moderation and Long-Term Success10:23 Understanding Kidney Stone Formation and Diet13:26 Creating Sustainable Lifestyle Changes15:29 Technical Difficulties and Transitioning Topics15:29 Exploring Kidney Stone Prevention Strategies——HAVE A QUESTION? _Leave us a voicemail at (773) 789-8764.KIDNEY STONE DIET® APPROVED PRODUCTSProtein Powders, Snacks, and moreWORK WITH JILL _Start HereKidney Stone Diet® All-Access PassKidney Stone Diet® CourseKidney Stone Diet® Meal PlansKidney Stone Diet® BooksPrivate Consultation with JillOne-on-One Deep Dive24-Hour Urine AnalysisSUPPORT THE SHOW _Join the PatreonRate Kidney Stone Diet on Apple Podcasts or Spotify——WHO IS JILL HARRIS? _Since 1998, Jill Harris has been the #1 kidney stone prevention nurse helping patients reduce their kidney stone risk.

How might we maximize the therapeutic efficiency of levodopa?

The new Lancet Series on ultra-processed foods offers a striking insight: as UPFs rise globally, traditional whole-food diets decline—bringing nutrient imbalance, overeating, toxic exposures, and hyper-palatable formulations that quietly reshape health trajectories.

This Fasting Compilation features Dr. Alan Goldhamer, Dr. Valter Longo, and Dr. Michael Greger to discuss the science of strategic deprivation. We explore why visceral fat behaves like a tumor secreting inflammatory molecules that drive chronic disease. How many health conditions stem from dietary patterns rather than requiring medication alone. The evolutionary mechanism of insulin resistance and the reality that when you eat can matter as much as what you eat, with the same calories producing opposite metabolic outcomes depending on meal timing. I also share my own challenges. Knowing the science doesn't make implementation easy. Listen. Learn. And discuss with your healthcare provider what makes sense for you. Enjoy! CRITICAL SAFETY NOTE: Under no circumstances should anyone undertake a water fast of any length without medical supervision. Do not attempt this at home.

Send us a textIn this episode, I'm talking about something that has shaped my life in ways I didn't even understand until years later, something my husband calls an "environment of yes". After I got sick, Shahn made a conscious effort to surround me with as much positivity and choice as possible. He created yeses in a season of my life that had been nothing but no, and it changed everything for me.Today I'm pulling back the curtain a little to share what that looked like, why it mattered, and how you can use the same idea to make losing weight easier on yourself, especially when the process feels restrictive, frustrating, or draining.I walk through what recovery was really like: the physical and emotional toll, the identity crisis, the guilt, the grief, the monster thoughts in the mirror, and the weird contradiction of feeling overwhelmingly grateful and completely traumatized at the same time. I also talk about what it meant to rebuild my life after losing my autonomy for months, and how powerful it was when someone kept handing me small moments of yes.Then I connect it back to weight loss. Because weight loss can feel like an unending series of no's: no to food, no to comfort, no to old coping mechanisms, no to autopilot eating. And when we feel boxed in, restricted, and stripped of choice, we rebel. Diets count on that, but your success doesn't have to.Creating your own environment of yes helps you stick with hard things without feeling trapped. It might be saying yes to snacks you prepped ahead of time. Yes to a meal you planned for. Yes to a choice you get to make, not a rule someone else handed you. Yes to something that feels good when so much of this process feels hard.You can't escape the hard. But you can balance it. You can build pockets of positivity into your day so you don't burn out on the negative. Hard is hard and pain is pain, but the more yeses you give yourself, the more you'll be able to keep going.If you're feeling boxed in, restricted, frustrated, or fed up, this one is for you.Looking for help on your weight loss journey?

If you've ever typed into Google or ChatGPT, “Why am I not losing weight?” or “Why do diets stop working?” this conversation is for you. Shaela Daugherty, joined by Lacy Lain and Brittany Braswell, unpacks the truth behind diet culture and the spiritual exhaustion it creates. Together they reveal why most Christian women keep gaining the weight back—and how faith-based fitness habits can help you finally see real, sustainable results. Forget fad diets, rigid plans, and “clean-eating” perfection. In this episode, you'll hear how to break free from the guilt-driven cycle and build healthy habits that last through grace, stewardship, and consistency. What You'll Learn Why most diets fail for Christian women (and what to do instead) How to replace restriction with rhythms of nourishment and peace 3 faith-based habits that build lasting results without obsession How your identity in Christ can heal your relationship with food & fitness Why consistency and community outperform quick fixes every time Why It Matters So many women of faith are stuck in the “next-best-plan” cycle—keto, Whole30, macro tracking, reset after reset—only to end up tired, anxious, and spiritually empty. This episode reframes health as a calling, not a competition. You'll learn how to stop chasing quick fixes and start cultivating discipline through dependence on God, building strength that lasts far beyond the mirror. True transformation happens when you trade control for consistency, hustle for holiness, and perfection for peace.

Can the way you combine foods really change how your body digests them—or even help you lose weight? For well over a century, food combining diets have claimed exactly that. From the early natural hygiene movement to the wildly popular Hay Diet, to the celebrity-fueled Beverly Hills Diet of the 1980s, these plans have promised better digestion, improved energy, and rapid weight loss all by simply avoiding consuming certain combinations of foods. But what does science say about food combining? And is there any evidence that separating foods helps your digestion or metabolism? Join us, two Registered Dietitians, as we break down the history and the hype behind food combining diets, explore how these ideas took hold, and discuss why your digestive system is far more capable than these diets suggest.Want to support the show and get bonus episodes?

In this episode of Far From Perfect, I sit down with therapist, Krista Day-Gloe to talk about something so many of us have struggled with — the hidden costs of elimination diets. We dig into why gut health is about so much more than food, how stress and your nervous system play a huge role, and what really happens when we try to “fix” things by cutting foods out. Krista shares why working with a professional matters and offers simple, effective ways to start resetting your system. This one's a must-listen if you've ever found yourself stuck in the cycle of restriction, frustration, and gut issues.Find Krista at https://healingrootswellnesscenter.com/meet-krista-day-gloe/https://healingrootswellnesscenter.com/meet-krista-day-gloe/Pre-order her book: https://healingrootswellnesscenter.com/shop/mood-and-moon-tracker/

 Ever feel like you're doing everything right—tracking, eating clean, training hard—but the scale won't budge? In this episode, we're digging into some of the functional root causes of weight-loss plateaus- the things that make the ‘calories in, calories out' model feel broken. Because while that equation still matters, it doesn't exist in a vacuum. Hormones, stress, gut health, inflammation, sleep, and metabolic adaptation all play a role in how your body actually responds to that math.  Today we are going to dive into all the behind-the-scenes systems that impact how your body uses- or holds onto- fat. Because sustainable change isn't just about cutting calories, it's about fixing what's under the hood.  If you've been doing everything ‘right' and still feel stuck, this one's for you!I will be discussing:The GutHormone Balance Loss of Muscle Mass or just Low Lean Body MassSystemic InflammtionChronic Infections or Stealth PathogensToxic Burden or Poor DetoxificationSleep Deprivation or Circadian Rhythm DisruptionUnder eating & Over Exercising (Metabolic Adaptation)Blood Sugar ImbalanceRoot Cause Concierge is Live!

This episode features speakers from the 2025 ADSA Applied Nutrition Symposium, “Milk Pricing Dynamics and Strategies for Enhancing Milk Fat Production.” Dr. Lock gave the highlights of his presentation on dietary opportunities for promoting milk fat.  (2:18)Dr. St. Pierre's presentation focused on the change we've had in the way milk and its components are priced. (5:25)Dr. Van Amburgh's symposium talk covered amino acid supplementation to high producing cows eliciting more of a milk fat response than a milk protein response. (9:31)Dr. Van Amburgh and Dr. Lock talk about where butyrate fits into milk fat synthesis. Dr. Van Amburgh shares some of his experiences with grass-based dairy diets in Ireland and how those might influence milk fat production. The group discusses de novo and preformed fat synthesis and how diets may or may not influence those two mechanisms. (12:16)The guests talk about an abstract from Dr. Van Amburgh's lab at the ADSA meetings about supplemental lysine levels. This leads into a discussion of lactose production and fluid milk volume, as well as feedback from cheese processors and the impact of supplemental chromium on milk production parameters. (22:31)Dr. St. Pierre talks about cheese processor concerns with increased milk fat concentrations, milk pricing structures, and milk perishability. (28:27)The panel discusses metabolizable protein, essential, non-essential, and branched-chain amino acids, and how the view of fatty acids and amino acids has changed from simple substrates to make milk components to compounds with biogenic activities. (36:20)Dr. St. Pierre talks about the inaugural Industry Day at the 2025 ADSA meetings and goals for similar future events. (43:01)Panelists share their take-home thoughts.

NEW! Support your strength and muscle goals with PUORI Creatine+ — a clean, effective creatine monohydrate supplement enhanced with taurine. Get 20% off at puori.com/VANESSA In this masterclass episode, Vanessa sits down with Dr. David Church, one of the most exciting young researchers in protein metabolism and a mentee of Dr. Arny Ferrando and Dr. Robert Wolfe. Together, they break down the latest science on protein timing, distribution, and supplementation — and how to apply it to achieve fat loss, preserve muscle, and enhance cognition. You'll learn: • How stable isotope tracer studies work and what they reveal about muscle protein synthesis (MPS). • The minimum protein per meal needed to trigger muscle growth and repair — and whether you can hit it with two meals a day. • The truth about intermittent fasting and muscle preservation — what happens to MPS in 2-meal and 1-meal-a-day patterns. • Why older adults and women over 40 face anabolic resistance and how EAAs (essential amino acids) can help overcome it. • What happens when you double your protein intake from 0.8 g/kg to 1.6 g/kg — and why distribution may matter less than total intake. • The surprising power of small doses of EAAs in muscle maintenance and cognitive support. • Why creatine is foundational for women, including new research showing benefits for brain health and sleep deprivation. • How to optimize body recomposition — burning fat while protecting lean mass — even during calorie restriction. • The difference between supplemental vs. replacement nutrition, and why EAAs work for older adults with low appetite. • The synergy of protein + resistance training + sleep + activity in driving sustainable fat loss. OneSkin is powered by the breakthrough peptide OS-01, the first ingredient proven to reduce skin's biological age. I use the OS-01 Face and Eye formulas daily—they've transformed my skin's smoothness, firmness, and glow. Visit oneskin.co/VANESSA and use code VANESSA for 15% off your first purchase Dr. Church also shares his own daily stack — including why he takes 20 g of creatine per day and combines it with EAAs for energy, cognition, and recovery — plus his favorite high-protein meals for busy days. If you've ever wondered how to burn fat efficiently while protecting every gram of muscle, this episode is packed with evidence-based takeaways you can implement right away. Mentioned in this Episode: • Puori Creatine + – clean, third-party-tested creatine monohydrate with taurine • Essential amino acids for older adults and women facing anabolic resistance • Stable isotope tracer studies — how we truly measure MPS • Protein targets: 1.6–2.4 g/kg depending on activity and energy restriction • Pre-sleep protein and its impact on overnight MPS and metabolic rate Get delicious high protein meal recipes!

Low potassium intake is strongly linked to higher rates of depression and anxiety, making this mineral a key factor in protecting your mental health Large-scale studies from Korea, the U.S., and China all show that people who consume more potassium experience greater emotional stability and fewer mood disorders Most Americans eat nearly twice as much sodium as potassium, reversing the ratio your body needs and driving risks like memory decline, osteoporosis, and mood struggles Whole foods such as spinach, broccoli, beet greens, tomatoes, cantaloupe, and grass fed yogurt are some of the most effective ways to naturally boost your potassium levels Choosing natural salts over processed table salt and gradually replacing packaged foods with fresh produce helps restore balance, supporting steadier energy and improved resilience to stress

In this featured replay, I sit down with Andrew Coates to unpack two of the most misunderstood topics in the fitness and nutrition space: reverse dieting and ultra-processed foods.This episode is a masterclass in nuance — helping coaches move beyond trends, challenge popular narratives, and better guide clients in an era of confusion around nutrition and metabolism.Topics discussed: - Why gut health and insulin sensitivity matter more than calories alone- How to identify when a client truly needs a reverse phase- The origins and misconceptions of reverse dieting in physique sports- What “ultra-processed” really means — and why the definition matters- Why coaches need to embrace nuance, not noise---------- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠My Live Program for Coaches: The Functional Nutrition and Metabolism Specialization ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.metabolismschool.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠---------- [Free] Metabolism School 101: The Video Series⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://www.metabolismschool.com/metabolism-101⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠----------Subscribe to My Youtube Channel: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://youtube.com/@sammillerscience?si=s1jcR6Im4GDHbw_1⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠----------⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Grab a Copy of My New Book - Metabolism Made Simple⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠---------- Stay Connected: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram: @sammillerscience⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Youtube: SamMillerScience⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook: The Nutrition Coaching Collaborative Community⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok: @sammillerscience⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠----------“This Podcast is for general informational purposes only and does not constitute the practice of medicine, nursing or other professional health care services, including the giving of medical advice, and no doctor/patient relationship is formed.

Episode #227 In this Fasting Q&A episode, hosted by Coach Lisa Chance, Dr. Jason Fung answers questions from the TFM Community: 1. Can people tweak the 5:2 diet with the two non-consecutive restricted calorie days as full fast days (water only) and reap the same if not better results, or must food in the form of nutrient dense and low calorie be consumed? [09:21] 2. I have seen videos of Dr Fung endorsing the Fasting Mimicking Diet (FMD). Does he, Dr Fung advocate it for T2D? I am asking because of the plant based (carb) items in the kit, like the soups, crackers, and bars and the potential spike in insulin and glucose consuming those items? [14:30] 3. While an individualized approach to managing and/or reversing diabetes is best, from a diet perspective, is it generally better to have a diverse diet and manage diabetes with medication if needed, rather than restricting your diet to avoid medication? [18:55] 4. Can one - or more importantly should one - practice OMAD to reverse IR or T2D?  Is there a nutritional concern here?  Is the length of time that you do OMAD a factor? [21:12] 5.

This week we're exploring the connection between what you eat and how you feel, from mood-boosting fibre to the foods that help sharpen focus and protect brain health. We unpack new research showing how high-intensity exercise fuels cognitive function and why short, consistent bursts of movement could be one of the best ways to support your mind. We break down the latest ban on "buy one, get one free" junk food deals and what it means for our weekly shop, plus dive into Joe Wicks' new documentary with Chris van Tulleken, where they expose how easy it is to market ultra-processed foods as healthy. We're also looking at the growing conversation around rapeseed oil, separating science from social media fearmongering, and sharing simple takeaways to help you protect your attention, eat for your mood, and move in a way that fuels both body and brain.
