Podcasts about Fasting

Most people spend their lives trying to outrun death instead of learning from it. This episode shows you why facing mortality directly can unlock resilience, forgiveness, gratitude, and peace while upgrading longevity, human performance, and even brain optimization. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Suzanne O'Brien, RN—an end-of-life expert, hospice nurse, and founder of Doulagivers who has guided over 1,000 people through their final moments. She shares what the dying can teach the living about biohacking fear, letting go of unresolved trauma, and finding clarity before it's too late. Together they explore how hacking your mindset around death transforms not only emotional well-being but also physical health, neuroplasticity, and metabolism. You'll hear stories of people who discovered forgiveness and gratitude at the end of life, and how those practices directly influence mitochondria, sleep optimization, and longevity. They dive into the link between fear, stress chemistry, and chronic illness—and why tools like fasting, ketosis, cold therapy, supplements, nootropics, and functional medicine create the inner and outer resilience needed to face life fully. You'll Learn: • Why fear of death silently undermines health, performance, and human potential • How forgiveness and gratitude rewire neuroplasticity and boost brain optimization • What hospice nurses know about consciousness and near-death experiences that science is only starting to confirm • How unresolved trauma shows up as physical pain and disease at the end of life Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.

Can you really get the life-extending, disease-preventing benefits of fasting… without actually fasting? That's the question I dive into today with Dr. Chris Rhodes, a nutritional biochemist who spent years mapping what happens in the body during prolonged fasts. We explore the powerful cellular changes that fasting triggers, from autophagy and DNA repair to inflammation reduction and longevity - and how a new supplement may mimic those same benefits without the hunger, muscle loss, or social challenges that come with extended fasting. We get into the surprising ways fasting impacts cancer risk, thyroid health, weight loss, and even aging itself. You'll hear about the groundbreaking research behind Mimio, why certain molecules only appear in the body after 36+ hours of fasting, and how scientists combined them into a formula shown to extend lifespan by nearly double in lab studies. If you've ever struggled to stick with fasting protocols, worried about protein loss, or wondered whether fasting is even safe for women in perimenopause and menopause, this conversation will open your eyes to a whole new possibility. Tune in! You may never look at fasting (or longevity) the same way again.

Today's conversation on Back Porch Theology we're talking about the spiritual discipline of fasting – the willingness to forgo food, or social media, or some other physical or emotional comfort in order to focus more of our attention and affection on God. One of my favorite ancient theologians, Thomas A'Kempis, wrote this in his classic book “The Imitation of Christ”: True peace of heart therefore is found by resisting our passions, not by obeying them. Our Savior is the only One who can master us without abusing us. And sometimes, allowing ourselves to feel physical hunger pains is what prompts us to lean more fully into Jesus to satisfy the spiritual hunger in our hearts and minds. We're diving in pretty deep today y'all, so please grab a tall glass of something refreshing, along with your Bible and a notebook or sticky pad and come hang out on the porch with us. We're so grateful we get to spend this time with you.

Consider today a masterclass on biohacking for a woman. For so long the biohacking space or other word known as health optimization has been based on men's studies and data. Although thankfully it's coming to the surface that women aren't biochemically the same as men and we need to address things differently, especially in our reproductive years. My guest today has been in this space since the early days of biohacking and since then has not only learned how women need to approach things differently, but also has trained thousands of other women to do the same.  Kristin Weitzel is a health and high performance maven, with expertise across a broad range of health topics and Founder or WELLPOWER, SHERPA Breath & Cold. She is a biohacking proponent, certified fitness trainer, podcast host, breathwork guide, ice bath instructor, and nutritionist with a focus on guiding people to optimal health.  During her 15 years as a brand strategist and global marketer for Fortune 500 brands, Kristin sought opportunities to work with some of the top minds and mentors across the wellness world. She applied these learnings to her own weight management, energy, and lifestyle challenges, and continues to research and share them with her audience. She ultimately left behind her successful corporate career to pursue her peak expression: Leading others to break out of their comfort zones and rise into optimal wellbeing. In this episode we talk about: The Difference in a women's approach in biohacking  Fasting for women Why we need to eat more protein Common problems women are having and why Cycle syncing and fitness Cold exposure and breath Trusting your intuition How to Optimize your sleep and more… For full show notes and episode resources head to: https://ericalippy.com/kristin-weitzel/ Watch episode on YouTube Episode mentions:  BIOptimzers Magnesium Breakthrough : Discount code: ERICAL Function Health Get immediate access and $100 off: Code ELIPPYNELSON10 Find our guest at: Kristin Weitzel: Website, Instagram Wellpower podcast Coaching with Kristin Follow me on Social Media: Your Host: @ericalippy Podcast: @passionlovepursuit YouTube PASSION LOVE PURSUIT PODCASTS: https://ericalippy.com/the-podcast/

There are few things I disliked as much as fasting as a Mormon, so in this episode I'm talking about why. I get into what Mormon fasting is all about and then dig into fasting practices across cultures and religions—including when it's done for health or protest reasons. I'm also sharing a recent awkward in-person run-in and a must-see documentary. Listen to the whole episode on the Girlscamp: After Dark Patreon here. Learn more about your ad choices.

In this sermon, Pastor Chris Romig emphasizes the reality of the unseen spiritual realm and the active spiritual warfare Christians face, drawing from Revelation chapter 9. He warns that Satan seeks to undermine believers, especially during seasons of prayer and fasting, referencing Paul's teaching in Ephesians 6 that our true struggle is against spiritual forces of evil. Chris interprets the symbolic imagery of the fifth trumpet judgment, where Satan is given the key to the bottomless pit, releasing demons described as monstrous locusts. He explains that these are fallen angels, some of whom are imprisoned until the final judgment, and references both Old and New Testament passages to underscore that demons are real and active despite modern skepticism. While the unleashed demons bring terrible torment to those who reject God, Chris reminds the faithful that God remains sovereign, setting firm limits and protecting those marked as His own. He addresses the unsettling reality of God's judgment by underscoring the seriousness of sin and God's patient desire for everyone to come to repentance, as highlighted in 2 Peter 3:9. Ultimately, Chris calls his listeners to recognize the true consequences of rejecting God's grace, to repent, and to find hope in the promise, that despite the world's evil, God's triumph and love will prevail. 

The elders here at Berean are calling for an all-church 24 Hours of Prayer and Fasting – from 7p on Fri. 9/26 to 7p on Sat. 9/27. (We'll start and end with corporate worship and prayer, and keep the building open for prayer the other hours.) While this is the third fall that we've done this, the spiritual discipline of fasting can still feel a bit unfamiliar…or just plain weird! So, we're taking two weeks to explore what the Bible has to say: What is fasting? How is it done? How long? And why – does it make us more pleasing to God or make him listen to us or something? Along the way, our prayer is that we as a church family will genuinely seek the Lord in humility and joy.

Fasting involves a strong desire to hear from God and a willingness to abstain from distractions.

What if the foods you think are healthy are actually disrupting your biology? From sugar marketed as a performance tool to “whole grains” that drive cravings, this episode uncovers how hidden traps in modern nutrition can hijack your brain, wreck your metabolism, and accelerate aging. You'll learn how to rethink daily eating so it fuels energy, resilience, and long-term health instead of quietly sabotaging it. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Max Lugavere, health journalist, filmmaker, and bestselling author of Genius Foodsand The Genius Kitchen. Max is one of the most trusted voices in nutrition and functional medicine, translating complex science into practical tools you can use right now. His work has been featured on The Today Show, PBS, and across global media for helping people reclaim health through smarter food and lifestyle choices. In this re-run, Dave and Max break down the real impact of sugar, salt, and food processing on your brain and body. They explore how cooking methods change health outcomes, when fasting and ketosis become powerful tools, and why supplements, nootropics, and trace minerals fill gaps in the modern diet. They also tackle controversial topics like carnivore diets, cold therapy, and whether “healthy” plant-based foods are truly supporting resilience—or quietly eroding it. You'll Learn: • The biggest nutrition myths that silently damage health and performance • How sugar can act as both poison and fuel depending on context • Why cooking methods make the difference between nourishment and toxicity • The overlooked role of minerals, supplements, and culinary literacy • How nootropics, cold therapy, and sleep optimization reset your brain • Why some “health foods” accelerate aging instead of protecting you • The truth about carnivore diets, industrial farming, and sustainability • When fasting, ketosis, and carb cycling create optimal results This episode gives you a science-backed blueprint to hack your nutrition, sharpen your brain, and extend your longevity with foods that truly support your biology.

In a fascinating and insightful discussion, I sat down with Dr. Jon Brudvig, a medical scientist and expert in neuroscience and drug development. Together, we explored the science of aging, the critical role of cellular recycling, and the practical steps anyone can take to improve their healthspan. Jon Brudvig shared his journey from rare disease research to longevity science, offering actionable insights into how our daily choices impact the aging process. Such a good conversation, I have split it into two parts. What You'll Learn: The Cellular Foundation of Aging:Discover how Dr. Brudvig’s research into lysosomal storage diseases led him to understand the universal decline in cellular recycling (autophagy and lysosomal function) as a key driver of aging. Autophagy Explained:Learn why autophagy—the body’s process of breaking down and recycling damaged cellular components—is essential for health, and how modern lifestyles can disrupt this natural cycle. The Fundamentals of Longevity:Understand why exercise, diet, sleep, vitamin D, omega-3s, and real-life social connections are the true building blocks of a long and healthy life. Mouse Models and Human Longevity:Gain perspective on the limitations of animal studies in longevity research, and why findings in mice don’t always translate directly to humans. The mTOR Pathway and Protein Intake:Explore the debate around the mTOR pathway, protein consumption, and how balancing periods of growth and rest may be the key to optimal aging. Healthspan vs. Lifespan:Reflect on the difference between living longer and living better, and why increasing your years of good health (healthspan) is a more realistic and valuable goal than chasing extreme longevity. Key Takeaways: Aging is cellular: The decline in lysosomal and autophagy function is a core driver of aging and disease. Autophagy matters: Fasting, exercise, and periodic stressors help trigger the body’s natural recycling processes. Master the basics: Exercise, a balanced diet, quality sleep, and strong social ties are the most effective longevity interventions. Be cautious with quick fixes: Not all supplements or drugs that work in mice will work in humans—focus on proven fundamentals first. Balance is key: Intermittent activation of growth pathways (like mTOR) through meals and exercise, balanced with periods of rest, supports healthy aging. Protein quality counts: Mix your protein sources and prioritise whole foods for optimal health outcomes.

Most people think broccoli is a superfood, but the reality is more nuanced. In this episode of The Human Upgrade, Host Dave Asprey explores the good and bad of broccoli—why adult broccoli can block thyroid function and cause gut issues, while broccoli seeds deliver sulforaphane, the powerful compound that activates all three of your body's detox pathways. You'll learn how sulforaphane protects against glyphosate, repairs leaky gut, and upgrades mitochondria, metabolism, and longevity. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Dave is joined by two Johns Hopkins–trained researchers whose expertise in biohacking, biochemistry, and functional medicine makes them trusted leaders in the field. Together they reveal how sulforaphane, berberine, curcumin, and alpha-lipoic acid outperform bulk vegetables and even rival GLP-1 weight loss drugs—delivering natural ways to improve metabolism, regulate dopamine, and protect the brain. Their research shows how targeted supplements can boost neuroplasticity, brain optimization, and human performance without the side effects of pharmaceuticals. Dave and his guests break down why bulk vegetables don't deliver enough beneficial compounds, how to hack plant toxins for maximum benefit, and why supplement stacks often outperform carnivore, vegan, or high-vegetable diets for long-term health. You'll discover how biohacking tools like fasting, ketosis, nootropics, cold therapy, and sleep optimization amplify these compounds for smarter not harder living. You'll Learn: • Why adult broccoli can disrupt thyroid function while broccoli seeds fuel detox and longevity • How sulforaphane, berberine, curcumin, and alpha-lipoic acid support metabolism and mitochondria • Why natural compounds can rival GLP-1 drugs for weight loss and energy regulation • The connection between glyphosate, leaky gut, inflammation, and brain fog • How to stack supplements with fasting, ketosis, and cold therapy for brain optimization • Why functional medicine and biohacking provide better long-term solutions than fad diets • The smarter not harder way to extract benefits from plants without the toxic load This episode is essential for anyone serious about biohacking, upgrading metabolism, extending longevity, and achieving high performance with resilience and clarity.

Today's Uncertainties Call for a Deepening Personal Relationship with God Through Prayer, Fasting, and Listening MESSAGE SUMMARY: There are times when you need clarity, understanding, knowledge, and insights from the Lord about the specific issues that you are facing. The Lord will speak to you, but sometimes it takes your listening and fasting to hear Him. For example, when Joel received a Word when the land was to be destroyed, he called a fast (i.e. Joel 1:14): “Consecrate a fast; call a solemn assembly. Gather the elders and all the inhabitants of the land to the house of the LORD your God, and cry out to the LORD.”. Some things you are facing in your life must be dealt with by both prayer and fasting. Fasting releases a spiritual power – in your weakness, God is made strong in your life. Daniel's prayer, from Daniel 9:3-5, provides a context for asking direction from God: “Then I turned my face to the Lord God, seeking him by prayer and pleas for mercy with fasting and sackcloth and ashes. I prayed to the LORD my God and made confession, saying, ‘O Lord, the great and awesome God, who keeps covenant and steadfast love with those who love him and keep his commandments, we have sinned and done wrong and acted wickedly and rebelled, turning aside from your commandments and rules.'". After Jesus responded to the Apostles request of “teach us to pray” by providing the “Lord's Prayer”, Jesus instructed the Apostles and us, in Matthew 6:17-18, how to fast: “But when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face, that your fasting may not be seen by others but by your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you.". Our fasting will be rewarded as a deepening link to God in our personal relationship with Him.   TODAY'S PRAYER: Father, I confess that when difficulties and trials come into my life, large or small, I mostly grumble and complain. I realize the trials James talks about are not necessarily “walls,” but they are difficult to bear, nonetheless. Fill me with such a vision of a transformed life, O God, that I might actually consider it “pure joy” when you bring trials my way. I believe, Lord. Help my unbelief. In Jesus' name, amen. Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 94). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, Because of who I am in Jesus Christ, I will not be driven by Resentment. Rather, I will abide in the Lord's Compassion. “I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in Me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from Me you can do nothing.” (John 15:5). SCRIPTURE REFERENCE (ESV): Joel 1:13-16; Matthew 6:16; Daniel 9:3-7; Psalms 114:1-8.

Promises get broken all the time. Maybe by a parent, a friend, or someone who said “forever” but didn't mean it. No wonder so many people question whether God is any different. But here's the good news: God always keeps His promises. And one of His greatest promises is this—when you cry out for help, He hears your voice. In this week's message, Pastor Shannon shows us from Psalm 18 why prayer matters and gives us five reasons we can trust God when we pray: God hears. God responds. God rescues. God strengthens. God turns our cries into praise. As we continue through 21 Days of Prayer & Fasting, let this message encourage you to lean into God's promise that prayer makes a difference.

What if your mindset could literally heal your body at the cellular level? Carey Mencarini extraordinary journey proves it's not just possible—it's transformative.Wheelchair-bound, on oxygen, and given mere months to live with an ALS-like diagnosis in her early 40s, Carey refused to accept this fate. Her two young sons needed her, so she embarked on a healing journey that would defy all medical predictions. Through IV vitamin therapy, extended water-only fasting, and most critically, harnessing the power of her mind, she completely reversed her condition.The science behind her recovery is fascinating. IV therapy bypasses digestive issues to deliver pharmaceutical-grade nutrients directly to cells starving for proper nutrition. Extended fasting triggers the body to generate stem cells naturally, replacing damaged cells with healthy ones. But Carey's most powerful discovery was how our thoughts directly impact cellular function—"What we think, our body hears all the time."This episode dives deep into the neuroplasticity of the brain and how concentrated positive thought can physically transform our cells. As Carey's explains, "If you can harness the power of your mind, anything is possible." This isn't about toxic positivity or denying reality—it's about understanding that our mindset is a legitimate health tool that amplifies everything else we do for our wellbeing.For anyone facing health challenges or simply wanting to age with vitality, this conversation offers actionable wisdom: start your day with prayer or meditation, move your body for just 15 minutes to generate feel-good hormones, and focus on nutrient-dense, minimally processed foods. Most importantly, recognize that the conversation happening between your ears might be the most powerful determinant of your health outcomes.Ready to discover your own healing superpower?

Most people track glucose or ketones, but almost no one is measuring the hidden signal that could be silently wrecking your metabolism, brain function, and longevity: uric acid. This episode reveals why this overlooked biomarker drives obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer's, and even accelerated aging—and how you can hack it to unlock resilience, human performance, and smarter not harder health upgrades. Watch the podcast on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR We revisit host Dave Asprey sitting down with Dr. David Perlmutter, one of the world's leading functional medicine neurologists and the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Grain Brain and Drop Acid. Dr. Perlmutter has spent decades connecting gut health, brain optimization, and neuroplasticity with lifestyle interventions that truly change the trajectory of disease. In this conversation, he explains how uric acid acts as a metabolic switch that determines whether you burn fat or store it, whether your mitochondria power you up or slow you down, and whether your brain stays sharp or declines with age. They break down how fructose, purines, alcohol, and even dehydration spike uric acid, why Japan is decades ahead in using this as a health marker, and how supplements like quercetin and luteolin rival pharmaceuticals in keeping it under control. You'll also learn how ketosis, fasting, cold therapy, carnivore and plant-based approaches, and sleep optimization all interact with uric acid to shape your healthspan. This is biohacking at its most actionable—because once you measure this signal, you can control it, and once you control it, you radically upgrade your metabolism, your brain, and your longevity. This is essential listening for anyone serious about hacking their biology, building neuroplasticity, powering up mitochondria, exploring nootropics, and discovering smarter not harder ways to live longer and perform better. You'll Learn: • Why uric acid may be the most important overlooked biomarker for longevity • How it connects obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and Alzheimer's • The evolutionary reason your body uses uric acid as a survival signal • How fructose and hidden sugars sabotage metabolism and brain optimization • The role of quercetin, luteolin, and targeted supplements in lowering uric acid • Why measuring at home with a simple device can change your health trajectory • How functional medicine uses uric acid as a predictive tool for chronic disease Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.

Alzheimer's is not inevitable—and it may even be optional. In this groundbreaking episode, you'll learn how to prevent, slow, and in some cases reverse cognitive decline using strategies that also enhance brain optimization, metabolism, and longevity. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey is joined by Dr. Dale Bredesen, a world-renowned neurologist and leading Alzheimer's researcher who has published over 240 peer-reviewed papers. Dr. Bredesen has spent decades proving that Alzheimer's is not a one-pathway disease but a network failure driven by inflammation, toxins, and mitochondrial dysfunction. His protocol has helped thousands of patients regain memory, extend healthspan, and reclaim brain performance. Together, they unpack how biohacking tools like fasting, ketosis, supplements, sleep optimization, cold therapy, and functional medicine can rewire neuroplasticity, protect mitochondria, and keep the brain in “connection mode” instead of decline. You'll hear why the pharmaceutical industry resists these solutions, how toxins like Paraquat and mold fuel cognitive decline, and what young people can do right now to bulletproof their brains for life. This episode is essential listening if you care about hacking human performance, upgrading metabolism, or extending longevity. You'll walk away with practical strategies you can use today—whether that means optimizing your mitochondria with nootropics, strengthening resilience with smarter not harder recovery, or fueling your brain with Danger Coffee. You'll Learn: • Why Alzheimer's can begin as early as your 20s and what biomarkers to track • The seven major drivers of Alzheimer's and how to reverse them with biohacking strategies • How APOE4 genetics, toxins, and inflammation accelerate brain aging—and what to do about it • The role of mitochondria, ketosis, and fasting in restoring brain optimization and neuroplasticity • Why prevention is exponentially easier than reversal and the top three actions you should start in your 20s • How to avoid “learned helplessness” in medicine and reclaim control over your brain span and longevity Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.
