You feel stiff, tired, or older than you should—and this episode shows you how to reverse it. Learn how to fix joint pain, restore youthful movement, and upgrade your longevity by hacking the hidden causes of early aging like mitochondrial dysfunction, leaky gut, and chronic inflammation. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Dr. Gregory Kelly, SVP of Product Development at Qualia Life and a leading authority on functional medicine, nootropics, and anti-aging science. Dr. Kelly is a naturopathic physician, author of Shape Shift, former editor of Alternative Medicine Review, and a university instructor who's published over 30 peer-reviewed papers and contributed to the Textbook of Natural Medicine. His deep expertise spans cellular regeneration, sleep optimization, metabolism, and the chronobiology of performance. They reveal why most joint pain has nothing to do with age, why your cartilage and synovial fluid become insulin resistant, and how biohacking your gut can dramatically improve joint function and brain optimization. You'll discover how neuroplasticity, metabolism, sleep, and mobility are all tied to your ability to stay pain-free and high performing. Dr. Kelly also breaks down the science behind unconventional joint-support compounds like tamarind seed extract, eggshell membrane, L-carnitine, and senolytics. You'll Learn: • Why joint pain is often a metabolic and mitochondrial issue, not aging • How zombie cells and gut toxins silently destroy your cartilage • What to take instead of glucosamine to actually rebuild your joints • Why most joint supplements fail and what new research says to use instead • How to enhance mobility using functional medicine and cutting-edge ingredients • How movement, inflammation, and brain health are deeply connected • Tools for real recovery without burnout using the smarter not harder method This channel explores how ketosis, fasting, cold therapy, and smarter not harder strategies affect movement, inflammation, and longevity. Dave also shares how Danger Coffee and his own supplement routines helped him reverse years of joint damage—and how you can do the same without drugs or surgery. This is essential listening for anyone serious about biohacking, human performance, and outsmarting the aging process at any age.

Day 33 -- Veteran's For Peace "Fast for Gaza." This will be the final of the "Fast for Gaza" conversations with peacemaker Kathy Kelly. It was the beginning of a brutal heat wave in NYC; we found a shady spot on the UN side of 1st Avenue. On the opposite side a small group of fasting protestors held signs and umbrellas.Kathy and I talked about her 2004 book "Other Lands Have Dreams: From Baghdad to Pekin Prison" -- focusing on the chapter "Change Agents" -- when she was visited in Pekin Prison by two FBI agents. Kathy talks about the families and children she got to know during her many visits to Iraqi hospitals during the decades-long UN / US sanctions on Iraq. UNICEF reported that 500,000 children under the age of five died between 1991 and 1998 due to those sanctions. Kelly's "Voices in the Wilderness" worked to bring medical supplies to those beleaguered people.The music in this program is “Hiroshima Rising from the Abyss" performed by the Toshiko Akiyoshi / Lew Tabackin Jazz Band, featuring drummer Andy Watson.Alan Winsonbarcrawlradio@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

Not Just a Chiropractor for Stamford, Darien, Norwalk and New Canaan
Have you heard about intermittent fasting? Its not just a weight loss trend anymore. Its also great for boosting your bodys natural hormones, like GLP-1 and GLP-2. These important gut peptides help manage appetite, control blood sugar, and repair the digestive tract. GLP-1 helps your body release insulin, slows down how quickly your stomach empties, and curbs hungermaking it a great asset for managing diabetes and metabolic health. Meanwhile, GLP-2 is busy promoting intestinal healing, strengthening the gut barrier, and enhancing nutrient absorption. One of the best fasting routines for increasing GLP-1 and GLP-2 levels is the 16:8 intermittent fasting method. This involves eating within just an 8-hour period each day. During fasting, your gut gets a chance to rest and reset. When its time to eat again, focusing on nutrient-rich meals packed with fiber and healthy fats can really boost your hormone production. Healthy fats and soluble fiber, in particular, do wonders for releasing GLP-1. Taking a natural approach like this can support your metabolic health and may lessen the need for medications, such as GLP-1 agonists (like Ozempic). If you're on the lookout for a drug-free way to achieve better hormone balance, control your appetite, and enhance gut health, fasting presents an easy, research-backed option. if you have a question call Dr.McKay Core Health Darien is located at 551 Post Road This podcast welcomes your feedback here are several ways to reach out to me.

Fasting is one of the more mysterious aspects of walking with God. Yet God gives us clear instructions about what a true fast looks like, and it's probably not what we'd expect. Today we look at Isaiah 58 which unpacks God's clear purposes for this important aspect of spiritual life. Join us! DISCUSSION AND STUDY QUESTIONS: 1. When you think of the spiritual discipline of fasting, what comes to mind? Have you ever fasted? If so, why? What for? How did you do it? 2. According to verse 1, what is the general subject matter of this message for God's people? What is Isaiah to declare to the people? 3. The podcast warned that verse 2 is tricky to understand unless we notice that word “as”. What does the word “as” indicate? Why is this key to understanding why (in verse 3) they are not seeing “results” from their spiritual deeds? 4. These people were “fasting” but in the wrong way. Why were they fasting in verse 4? Why would that be a problem? How do people still fast in these ways today? 5. What is the right way to “fast” in verses 5-7? Why is this true fasting? Given what you know about fasting, is this a surprise? In light of these teachings, would you say that fasting is to seek God to align your will with these pursuits? Why or why not? 6. What promises does the Lord give in verses 9-11? How would you describe or characterize these blessings? Why does proper fasting ensure these kinds of blessings? 7. In verse 12, what kind of society will this kind of fasting produce? How do you think “fasting” factors into this kind of reform? 8. Looking over verse 13, what kind of attitude ought they to have for the sabbath? What does this kind of attitude demonstrate? How is this different from the predominant attitude they had towards the sabbath? When they have these kinds of attitudes, what kinds of blessings will they receive in verse 14? 9. How has this chapter changed your understanding of fasting? What is its purpose? What does it accomplish? 10. Think over the next few weeks in your life. Is there a time when you can apply these principles to your own life and “fast” in the way that we see in Isaiah 58? Check out our Bible Study Guide on the Key Chapters of Genesis!

Daily Study: Have you ever read a Bible verse and not quite know what it meant? Well, that happens to me a lot.

“The morning, up until around lunch, is the best time of day to eat most of our calories. And in fact, there's been really great research. Even if you don't change the timing of your meals, if you make breakfast and lunch the largest meals of the day and dinner the smallest meal of the day, you lose more weight. And not only do you lose more weight, you're actually less hungry.” -Dr. Courtney Peterson “Talk about these time intervals. Why is 14 a magic number?” -Jason Wrobel “Typically, it takes the body about 12 to 14 hours to burn through a lot of its glycogen stores. Initially after a meal, your body's gonna be burning a lot of carbohydrates—so, glucose. It's gonna burn through a lot of the actual food in the meal, then it'll store some, burn others.” -Dr. Courtney Peterson “Are there any scientifically reported benefits for hormone health, or managing cancer, with TRE?” -Jason Wrobel “The area of cancer is super fascinating. Valter Longo does a lot of work in both the realms of aging and longevity, and cancer. Many years ago, he and some collaborators discovered if you fast cells or animals with cancer prior to treating the cancer with chemotherapy and radiation, you could kill tumors far more effectively.” -Dr. Courtney Peterson What if the timing of your meals mattered just as much as the food on your plate? In this episode, we're diving into the fascinating science of time-restricted eating with Dr. Courtney Peterson—one of the world's leading researchers on how aligning our meals with the body's internal clock can transform our health. A Harvard-trained scientist and Associate Professor of Nutrition Sciences at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, Dr. Peterson was the first to test early time-restricted eating in humans, and her groundbreaking work is redefining how we think about metabolism, energy, and chronic disease. If you've ever wondered if nourishment runs deeper than nutrients—that your body might be seeking harmony—then this episode will strike a chord. What we discuss in this episode: Different types of intermittent fasting: how they compare, and what benefits they offer. The science behind time-restricted eating (TRE). How TRE supports weight loss and appetite regulation. Fasting, aging, and the process of autophagy. The best time of day to consume the majority of your calories. How meal timing can influence fertility and reproductive health in women. Grazing vs. structured mealtimes: what the science shows. The intersection of cancer treatment and fasting: what emerging research reveals. Hypertrophy and intermittent fasting. How fasting influences exercise performance. Dr. Peterson's personal approach to intermittent fasting.

Read Online“When you fast, do not look gloomy like the hypocrites. They neglect their appearance, so that they may appear to others to be fasting. Amen, I say to you, they have received their reward. But when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face, so that you may not appear to others to be fasting, except to your Father who is hidden. And your Father who sees what is hidden will repay you.” Matthew 6:16–18Many today have abandoned the holy practice of fasting. Fasting is a powerful penitential practice that bestows great benefits upon the soul. The act of self-denial from certain food and drink, choosing instead simple nourishment from time to time, such as bread and water, or a reduced amount of food, greatly strengthens the soul and disposes a person to many spiritual blessings. Too often, we live for fleshly satisfactions and fall into the trap of trying to indulge our appetites on a regular basis. But doing so has the negative effect of tempting us to neglect the more important spiritual desires for holiness. By depriving ourselves of sensory delights from time to time, we become more disposed to seek the true and lasting delights that come only from God's grace. Therefore, this passage above presumes that we do regularly fast and engage in other forms of self-denial. Do you fast? Do you engage in other forms of self-denial on a regular basis? Daily prayer, reading the Scriptures, learning about the lives of the saints, and regular participation in the Sacraments all lead us closer to God and make us holy. But fasting and self-denial are also very important, so it is essential that we strive to embrace them as a part of our spiritual growth.In this passage, Jesus specifically calls us to seek the interior rewards that come from fasting and self-denial. He points out that if we use fasting as a way of gaining praise from others, then we lose the spiritual benefits of our fasting. Prayer, fasting, and almsgiving must all be done in a way that they are as hidden as possible so that our acts are truly sincere and not done so as to receive the earthly rewards of the admiration of others.Additionally, the lesson taught in this Gospel can also be applied to other areas of our lives. For example, if you are suffering from some illness or some form of bodily pain or discomfort, then of course you should seek the necessary medical attention. But these physical ailments also offer us another opportunity for spiritual growth when they are embraced in a silent and interior way. Even our pain or discomfort can be transformed into grace if we choose to embrace it with joy, offer it to God as a sacrifice, and keep it to ourselves as a silent gift given to God.Reflect, today, upon your practice of fasting, as well as every other opportunity you have each day to make silent and interior sacrifices to God. If you do suffer from some daily cross that is beyond your control, then try to turn it into a spiritual offering to our Lord. And if you are able to freely embrace fasting on a regular basis, then try to prayerfully commit to this practice. Try to do it every week, especially on Friday in honor of the Good Friday sacrifice made by our Lord. Don't underestimate the value of these hidden sacrifices. Make them a regular part of your spiritual life and God will bestow upon you many spiritual riches from Heaven.My sacrificial Lord, You denied Yourself of many earthly delights, especially when You fasted for forty days in the desert. Help me to take seriously this obligation to fast and to mortify my appetites. And help me to do so in a hidden way. May my life continually imitate Your perfect sacrifice so that I may become more like You every day.
