Podcasts about Fasting

This episode shows you how light, vibration, and frequency-based technology can shift your brain state in minutes, unlock deep neuroplasticity, release stored trauma, and create coherence that normally takes years of meditation or psychedelic training. You will learn how these tools support performance, resilience, mitochondria, emotional regulation, and advanced biohacking. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with master healer Raffaele Gianfrancesco, whose work draws on energy medicine, Egyptian color healing, vibroacoustics, and light based entrainment. Raffaele trained in the Barbara Brennan lineage and spent years developing methods that shut down the default mode network, activate the thalamocortical circuit, and move people into deep meditative and altered states within minutes. His technology has attracted the attention of consciousness researchers, advanced meditation schools, ketamine clinics, and U. S. Air Force programs studying human resilience and pilot performance. Dave and Raffaele break down how vibroacoustic sound, harmonics, cymatics, and flickering light therapy guide the brain into gamma, delta, epsilon, and high resonance states that support clarity, emotional release, and rapid state change. Raffaele explains how vibration affects fascia and trauma storage, how light influences the cerebrospinal fluid and pineal gland, and why coherence is the key to shifting consciousness. They discuss ketamine assisted therapy, remote viewing, the Monroe Institute, the relationship between frequencies and brain states, the history of flickering light therapy, and how certain frequencies help loosen trauma patterns stored in the body. You'll Learn: • How vibroacoustic sound and coherent light shut down the default mode network • Why fascia, trauma memory, and cerebrospinal fluid respond to vibration • How flicker based entrainment maps to gamma, delta, and theta brain states • Why the Air Force studies these tools for resilience and reaction speed • How ketamine combines with vibration and light to improve neuroplasticity • Why coherence, awe, and safety cues are essential for deep emotional release • What cymatics, harmonics, and frequency patterns reveal about consciousness Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.

In this foundational episode, Dr. Scott Watier and Tommy Welling explore why fasting insulin may be the most critical yet overlooked health metric for preventing chronic disease and achieving lasting weight loss. They break down insulin's essential roles throughout the body—from brain health and bone growth to muscle building and hormone production—while explaining how insulin resistance silently develops years before diabetes diagnosis. The hosts reveal why standard medical testing focuses on downstream markers like fasting glucose and A1C instead of measuring insulin directly, and they provide practical guidance on how to order your own fasting insulin test for as little as $20. They discuss optimal insulin ranges based on leading researchers, explain the HOMA-IR calculation for assessing insulin resistance, and deliver actionable strategies including time-restricted eating, protein prioritization, zone two exercise, and stress management. This episode empowers you to become your own health advocate by understanding and optimizing this upstream marker that connects to eight of the top ten causes of mortality. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Take the NEW FASTING PERSONA QUIZ! - The Key to Unlocking Sustainable Weight Loss With Fasting!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Resources and Downloads: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SIGN UP FOR THE DROP OF THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO BLOOD SUGAR CONTROL⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠GRAB THE OPTIMAL RANGES FOR LAB WORK HERE! - NEW RESOURCE! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FREE RESOURCE - DOWNLOAD THE NEW BLUEPRINT TO FASTING FOR FAT LOSS!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SLEEP GUIDE DIRECT DOWNLOAD⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠DOWNLOAD THE FASTING TRANSFORMATION JOURNAL HERE!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Partner Links: Get your⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ FREE BOX OF LMNT⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ hydration support for the perfect electrolyte balance for your fasting lifestyle with your first purchase⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ here!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Get ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠25% off a Keto-Mojo⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ blood glucose and ketone monitor (discount shown at checkout)! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Click here!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Our Community: Let's continue the conversation.

Have you ever prayed for something so long that you stopped expecting the answer? In this powerful Advent message, Pastor Stephen Mizell explores the story of Zechariah and Elizabeth—a faithful couple who waited 40 years for a child while continuing to serve God in the temple. Through their story found in Luke 1, discover a profound truth: God's silence isn't His absence. Sometimes heaven's delays aren't denials—God is preparing something bigger than what you're praying for. In This Episode: Why biblical hope is different from wishful thinking—it's confident expectation based on God's character How Zechariah and Elizabeth's obedience positioned them for a miracle they'd stopped expecting The difference between faith that believes God "can" versus faith that serves Him even when He "doesn't" Why both Zechariah and Mary asked "how?" but received different responses from the angel What it means to "keep lighting the incense"—staying faithful in service while waiting for answers How God sometimes closes our mouth so He can open our understanding Pastor Stephen challenges us with this question: What do you do when your prayers seem unanswered? The answer may surprise you—it's not to stop praying or stop serving, but to continue faithfully because hope is forged in consistency, not excitement. This message kicks off Open Door Church's Advent series, preparing hearts for 21 Days of Prayer and Fasting beginning January 4th. Key Quote: "Sometimes the most righteous people carry the heaviest crosses. Faith is not just believing God can—it's continuing to serve Him when He doesn't answer the way you expect." Scripture Focus: Luke 1:5-25

Step into Episode 188 of On The Delo as Delo sits down with Hunu founders Deyton and Breaben to break down how two former college wide receivers turned their love of soda into a superfood sports drink built for athletes and students. From juicing in a tiny kitchen and running late-night “chemistry labs” to navigating manufacturing, testing, and regulations, they share the real story behind creating a soda that's actually made from whole foods and designed to support recovery, immunity, and everyday performance.​From patience and integrity in formulation to the pressures of social media, money myths, and working day jobs while bootstrapping a beverage brand, this conversation goes deep on what it really takes to build something that's good for people without cutting corners. The trio also explores earth-based healing, Irish sea moss, shifting drinking culture among Gen Z, and Hunu's bigger mission with a Healthy Soda Act to get better options into schools and youth programs, all while keeping it fun, human, and honest. If you're into entrepreneurship, wellness, or just want a smarter way to enjoy soda, this episode will give you both inspiration and practical perspective.​Chapter Guide (Timestamps):​(0:00 - 2:11) Freestyle Intro, Delo's Cold Open, and Meeting the Hunu Founders​(2:12 - 4:22) College Football, Wide Receiver Room Stories, and the Spark for a Better Beverage​(4:23 - 7:28) Patience, Integrity, and Refusing to Cut Corners in Building a Whole-Food Formula​(7:29 - 10:51) From Shirt Business to CPG: Learning the Beverage Game and Naming Hunu (“Who Knew”)​(10:52 - 15:28) Regulations, Testing, Manufacturing Partners, and Funding the Brand While Working Day Jobs​(15:29 - 21:05) Money Myths, Social Media Illusions, and Attention as a Non‑Negotiable Business Pillar​(21:06 - 24:55) Superfood Sports Soda: Irish Sea Moss, Athlete Recovery, and Redefining What “Soda” Can Be​(24:56 - 32:31) Gen Z Drinking Shifts, Earth-Based Healing, and Discovering Sea Moss, Maca, and Moringa​(32:32 - 36:36) Whole-Food Eating, Fasting, Movement, and Designing a Lifestyle You Actually Enjoy​(36:37 - 43:06) Healthy Soda Act, Petitions, Distribution Dreams, Rapid-Fire Questions, and Delo's Close​

Fasting with prayer has been a Christian practice since Jesus came. People fasted and prayed in the OT. Jesus fasted and prayed. The apostles and early church fasted and prayed and God expected that we would fast and pray. Fasting helps to subdue our flesh so that we are more alive in the spirit. Fasting helps to prepare us for deeper and more powerful prayer. Fasting helps us to break the bonds of sin as we humble ourselves and seek the person and presence of Jesus. Preparing for a fast:Examine your motivesMatthew 6Warning against fasting for wrong reasonsExamine your actionsFasting is not a pleasing work in and of itselfIsaiah 58PracticalMost fasting was 24 hours, sundown to sundownDrink waterIf you have health considerations with fasting, talk to a doctorIt will be hardChristians much prefer feasting to fasting! Very few Christians practice fasting because of the difficulty. Allow this to difficulty to take you deep into prayer, asking God to enable you to continue.

God promises to bless us so that He can use us to bless others. Believing in God's promises about tomorrow changes the way we behave today.

Today we explore how Jesus shifted the paradigm of fasting from an Old Testament act of desperation to a New Testament expression of intimacy and longing.

Most people think you need sweat, strain, or long workouts to upgrade circulation, metabolism, and energy. What if your body could unlock all of that while you stand still? This episode reveals how to get a full body workout by doing absolutely nothing, and why a few minutes of targeted vibration can activate nitric oxide, improve microcirculation, calm your nervous system, and relieve the hidden damage from sitting all day. Host Dave Asprey shows you why the simplest biohack in the room might be the most powerful one you are not using. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Dr. Tommy Rhee, DC, a board-certified chiropractor known for his innovative approach to sports medicine and regenerative therapy. Dr. Rhee has treated professional athletes, starting NFL quarterbacks, and everyday people who want better mobility and faster recovery. He served as the official team chiropractor for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and worked with multiple UCLA athletic programs. He also created RheeGen, a patent-pending topical transdermal stem cell cream that introduces a non-invasive path to tissue repair and pain relief. His book, The Future of Regenerative Medicine, outlines how topical stem cell treatments can transform performance and healing. Dr. Rhee's background as a U.S. Navy aircrew member aboard S-3 Viking jets gives him a precision-driven understanding of human performance, resilience, and stress adaptation. In this episode, Dr. Rhee explains why whole body vibration works as a cheat code for circulation, fascia mobility, balance, mood, and nitric oxide activation. He shows how vibration increases microcirculation in places your workouts never reach, why it boosts lymphatic flow better than walking, and how it sends rapid-fire sensory signals that improve proprioception and stress recovery. You also learn why older adults benefit even more from this simple tool, how athletes use it as a warmup to conserve energy, and why three plane vibration dramatically outperforms cheap two dimensional devices.

Send us a textIntegration of brain metabolism with neural signaling, highlighting how core metabolites regulate energy use and protect neurons.Topics Discussed:Brain energy efficiency: Brains are much more energy-efficient than computers for similar processing, relying on adaptive metabolic strategies evolved under energy scarcity.Metabolism vs. information processing: Core metabolites like glutamate bridge basic cellular energy production and neural signaling.Lactate as a signal: Produced during exercise, lactate diffuses from muscles to brain, modulating neuronal excitability and providing neuroprotection.BHB in ketosis: During fasting or ketogenic diets, beta-hydroxybutyrate displaces glucose as fuel, enhances antioxidant defenses, and activates protective potassium channels in neurons.Adenosine and sleep: Accumulates from ATP breakdown during wakefulness, triggering sleep and locally inhibiting overactive neural networks for energy conservation.Glial cells' role: Astrocytes and oligodendrocytes handle sophisticated metabolism, release signaling molecules like lactate, and modulate synapses, and influence diseases like Alzheimer's.Practical Takeaways:Regular exercise elevates lactate, which signals the brain to adapt metabolism and may enhance neuroprotection against stress.Intermittent fasting or ketogenic diets can induce ketosis with BHB, potentially boosting brain antioxidant defenses and preconditioning against metabolic stress.Prioritizing sleep helps clear adenosine buildup, restoring energy balance and supporting long-term neural health.About the guest: Dr. Luis Felipe Barros, MD, PhD is a Chilean neurobiologist and professor at the Universidad de Valparaíso, where he leads a lab studying brain metabolism from glucose transport to mitochondrial function.Related Episode:M&M 255 | Unlocking Energy: How Nutrition & Drugs Impact Your Mitochondria | Chris Masterjohn*Not medical advice.Support the showAffiliates: Lumen device to optimize your metabolism for weight loss or athletic performance.

Breathwork is one of the most powerful tools in biohacking, yet most people only experience the surface level techniques. When you use it the right way, breathwork can upgrade your brain, strengthen your nervous system, improve sleep, and open awareness states that amplify longevity and human performance. This episode features Ishan Shivanand, a globally celebrated yogic scholar, mental health researcher, and bestselling author who was raised in the monasteries of India under Mahasiddha Avdhoot Shivanand. He carries one of the world's oldest Shiv Yogi lineages and created the clinically validated Yoga of Immortals method, which has helped millions reverse anxiety, depression, insomnia, burnout, and trauma. Together, Host Dave Asprey and Ishan reveal how lineage level breath practices shape consciousness, neuroplasticity, and emotional resilience. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey and Ishan explore the full arc of ancient yogic training, from how breathwork directs prana through the body to how chanting alters brain states, emotional regulation, and nervous system function. They break down the role of visualization in building neuroplasticity, the symbolism and physics of sacred sound, and the science of moving awareness through the spine. The conversation moves into rarely discussed topics including the yogic art of choosing one's death, how advanced practitioners leave the body, the meaning of immortality in spiritual traditions, and how dharma shapes whether long life becomes a blessing or a burden. You will hear how ancient monks trained through martial arts, mantra repetition, sacred geometry, gold symbolism, alchemy, and the cultivation of higher states of consciousness, and how these practices compare to modern biohacking tools like fasting, ketosis, nootropics, supplements, sleep optimization, functional medicine, and mitochondrial support. This episode shows you how Eastern mystical training and Western performance science intersect and how these teachings fit naturally within the Smarter Not Harder framework. This conversation also covers plant medicine, psychedelics, and the difference between ancient ceremonial use and modern recreational misuse. You will hear how lineage based training uses breath, awareness, and mantra to alter redox balance, regulate the autonomic nervous system, strengthen energy production, and shape brain optimization at the deepest levels. You'll Learn: • Why breathwork changes brain states faster than basic meditation and how it drives neuroplasticity • How chanting affects the vagus nerve, emotional regulation, and nervous system balance • How visualization strengthens nerve pathways, trauma resolution, and sleep optimization • The meaning behind sacred sound, vibration, and the origins of consciousness in ancient lineage training • Why monks train with martial arts, mantra repetition, and sacred geometry to enhance awareness • How yogic philosophy approaches immortality, choosing one's death, and leaving the body consciously • Why dharma shapes whether long life becomes a blessing or a curse • How plant medicine differs when used ceremonially versus recreationally • How to integrate these teachings into your own longevity, performance, and human potential strategy 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 brings you the knowledge to take control of your biology, extend your longevity, and optimize every system in your body and mind. Each episode delivers cutting-edge insights in health, performance, neuroscience, supplements, nutrition, biohacking, emotional intelligence, and conscious living. New episodes are released every Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Sunday (BONUS). Dave asks the questions no one else will and gives you real tools to become stronger, smarter, and more resilient.

In this research-focused episode, Dr. Scott Watier and Tommy Welling break down a pilot study on 16:8 intermittent fasting that reveals the power of sustainable, imperfect consistency for long-term success. They introduce the 80% Rule, showing how participants achieved meaningful weight loss and improved insulin sensitivity by following their eating window just 5.6 days per week without any calorie counting or food restrictions. The hosts provide crucial perspective on realistic weight loss timelines, explaining why modest results compound into significant transformations when you zoom out and stay patient. With Thanksgiving approaching, they deliver practical strategies for navigating the holiday season without throwing away your progress or white-knuckling through family gatherings. This episode reframes 16:8 fasting as your foundational "basement" strategy—the sustainable baseline that keeps you moving forward even when life gets chaotic, motivation wanes, or the scale doesn't cooperate on your expected timeline. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Take the NEW FASTING PERSONA QUIZ! - The Key to Unlocking Sustainable Weight Loss With Fasting!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Resources and Downloads: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SIGN UP FOR THE DROP OF THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO BLOOD SUGAR CONTROL⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠GRAB THE OPTIMAL RANGES FOR LAB WORK HERE! - NEW RESOURCE! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FREE RESOURCE - DOWNLOAD THE NEW BLUEPRINT TO FASTING FOR FAT LOSS!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SLEEP GUIDE DIRECT DOWNLOAD⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠DOWNLOAD THE FASTING TRANSFORMATION JOURNAL HERE!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Partner Links: Get your⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ FREE BOX OF LMNT⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ hydration support for the perfect electrolyte balance for your fasting lifestyle with your first purchase⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ here!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Get ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠25% off a Keto-Mojo⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ blood glucose and ketone monitor (discount shown at checkout)! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Click here!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Our Community: Let's continue the conversation.

In this heartfelt conversation, Audrey shares with Coach Lisa how she moved from fear and confusion to calm confidence by embracing nourishment, community, and self-compassion. Audrey's journey reminds us that fasting isn't just about hours — it's about listening to your body, releasing perfectionism, and keeping "a hand on the wagon," even when life gets messy. What you'll learn: Why fasting alone wasn't enough for Audrey The mindset shift that helped her release perfectionism How she advocated for herself through confusing medical advice The practices that improved her sleep, confidence, and cardiac markers How she navigates social eating, travel, and cravings with ease Books mentioned in this episode: The Paleo Cure — Chris Kresser Adrenal Transformation Protocol — Izabella Wentz Fast Like a Girl — Dr. Mindy Pelz   The transcript for this episode is available on our website:

What if cancer risk has far less to do with your weight than your insulin?Dr. Katie Deming sits down with Dr. Christy Kesslering, a fellow radiation oncologist who made the same unconventional leap out of Western medicine. Their conversation opens doors to understanding how metabolism influences cancer in ways most doctors never discuss with their patients.Dr. Kesslering reveals how her personal health struggles uncovered something most oncologists miss completely: insulin drives cancer growth far more than weight ever could. Chapters:05:32 - Emotional Roots of Cancer07:12 - Why She Left Radiation Oncology09:48 - Redefining Integrative vs Functional Medicine12:55 - The Power of Nutrient-Dense Real Food16:04 - The Most Revealing Cancer Biomarkers21:48 - Ketogenic Diet During Treatment26:35 - Steroids, Chemo, and Better Outcomes30:52 - Fasting vs Fasting Mimicking Diet36:22 - Radiation Protocols and Ketosis40:05 - Carnivore vs Carnivore-ish47:50 - Ketone Levels and Real-World HealingShe brings years of real clinical experience counseling patients on metabolic approaches right alongside their radiation treatment. You'll discover the specific blood markers that show what's truly happening beneath the surface and why your regular lab work probably isn't telling you the whole story.They break down exactly how to use fasting strategically around chemotherapy and radiation. Dr. Kesslering also tackles the truth about carnivore diets, hidden plant toxins, and why those trendy "fasting mimicking" packages might be doing more harm than good.You'll want to stay until the end because Dr. Kesslering reveals why chasing the "perfect" ketosis numbers might actually be sabotaging your healing, and what matters far more than any measurement you'll find in research studies.Listen and learn what two radiation oncologists discovered when they stopped treating symptoms and started addressing the metabolic terrain where cancer actually thrives.Connect with Dr. Christy Kesslering: Access the FREE Water Fasting Masterclass Now: https://www.katiedeming.com/the-healing-power-of-fasting/ Transform your hydration with the system that delivers filtered, mineralized, and structured water all in one.

This week on Fat Science, Dr. Emily Cooper, Mark Wright, and Andrea Taylor field your most urgent metabolic health questions—exploring care advocacy, novel drug use, lab results, and how to filter fact from fiction in the TikTok age. Dr. Cooper offers clinical clarity, real-world perspective, and actionable hope—with an emphasis on what truly matters for your long-term health and energy.Hear from listeners experiencing real breakthroughs (and challenges) with GLP-1s, get tips for navigating confusing cholesterol results, and learn why self-advocacy and good science matter more than credentials or hype. This is not a quick-fix episode; it's real metabolic medicine, mythbusting, and grounded encouragement for your health journey.Key Questions AnsweredWhat labs and scores best assess your true metabolic risk—and how do you make sense of fasting glucose, glucose-insulin ratio (GIR), and FIB-4?How can you find a medical provider who'll actually give you the time and attention metabolic care requires?Why do GLP-1s benefit more than weight loss alone? Listeners report help with sleep apnea, inflammation, and food noise—what does the science say?How should you reintroduce carbs after restriction, and what's the safest way to monitor (beyond A1C)?What's up with rising cholesterol on Zepbound, and when do you worry?Does serotonin syndrome relate to GLP-1s? (Short answer: No—Dr. Cooper explains why.)What are the dangers of “GLP-1 microdosing” as pushed by social media, and what happens when influencers overstep good science?Key TakeawaysCare that cares: The best doctor isn't always the most credentialed—find someone, MD, NP, or PA, who takes your questions seriously and goes deeper than the surface. Labs that matter: Fasting glucose, insulin, GIR, HbA1c, plus advanced lipid testing (CardioIQ, NMR) are critical for uncovering hidden risk—not just chasing numbers. GLP-1s act broadly: Listeners see gains in sleep, inflammation, and appetite regulation. These benefits are real, not just anecdotal, and Dr. Cooper shares the clinical rationale. Smart fueling, even on GLP-1s: If you lack hunger cues, “mechanical eating” prevents under-fueling and cellular stress—especially important for maintaining muscle and metabolism. Rethinking “microdosing”: TikTok trends are not medical advice—microdosing with black-market GLP-1s is unproven, poorly regulated, and potentially unsafe. Rely on trusted, legal medication sources only. Dr. Cooper's Actionable TipsRequest a full panel for metabolic health: ask your provider about fasting insulin, GIR, HbA1c, lipids, and FIB-4—even if you haven't been flagged as “at risk”. For those on GLP-1s: Don't skip meals; create a schedule with protein and fiber to avoid muscle loss and ensure micronutrient intake. Experiencing cholesterol shifts on medication? Ask for a breakdown (HDL, LDL, particle size) and consider advanced panels (CardioIQ, NMR) to better understand your risk. If reintroducing carbs after restriction, pair them with protein or fat and test glucose/insulin at intervals post-meal to personalize your plan. Avoid unregulated “microdosing” and buy only from reputable, FDA-approved outlets—protect your long-term health over quick fixes. Notable Quote“The most important thing is somebody who cares, not necessarily their degrees.”— Dr. Emily CooperLinks & ResourcesPodcast Home: Fat Science Podcast WebsiteSubmit a Show Question: questions@fatsciencepodcast.com or dr.c@fatsciencepodcast.comDr. Emily Cooper on LinkedInMark Wright on LinkedInAndrea Taylor on InstagramAdvanced cholesterol testing: CardioIQ at Quest, NMR at LabCorpFat Science is your source for breaking diet myths and advancing the science of true metabolic health.

For Jesus Followers, Fasting, with Food, Will Symbolize a Victory Over Oneself and Solidify a Personal Relationship with God MESSAGE SUMMARY: In the early Christian Church, which was under great stress and constant physical danger, God's direction and blessing was needed. Therefore, fasting was considered by Church leaders as a key element of their communion with God when they needed both His direction and blessing, as we find in Acts 14:23: “And when they had appointed elders for them in every church, with prayer and fasting they committed them to the Lord in whom they had believed.". As a challenge, "consider the food issue" in your life, especially when you need God's direction in your life, because food has such a stronghold on us. Fasting and tithing can significantly deepen your personal relationship with God because fasting is not easy; but success in fasting, especially with food, can symbolize your victory over yourself and solidify your commitment to your personal relationship with God.   TODAY'S PRAYER: Lord, Sabbath rest is truly an unbelievable gift! Thank you that there is nothing I can do to earn your love; it comes without any strings attached. As I close my eyes for these few minutes before you, all I can say is, thank you! In Jesus' name, amen.    Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 133). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, I affirm that because of what God has done for me in His Son, Jesus, I AM FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT. If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!

In this episode, Dr. James Thompson, MD — a board-certified allergist, immunologist, author, and health educator — shares how a 21-day Daniel Fast sparked a life-changing shift toward plant-forward living. After 34 years in medicine, he realized that despite following what he believed was a “healthy” diet, he still required multiple long-term medications for blood pressure, cholesterol, and chronic inflammation. A plant-based lifestyle helped him eliminate medications, improve sleep and joint pain, and even restore vision. Today, Dr. Thompson leads the Healthy Living With a Vision Foundation, delivering accessible nutrition and lifestyle medicine education to underserved communities. His FEARLESS Method (Food, Exercise, Avoid Toxins, Restorative Sleep, Less Stress, Engage Mind, Social Energy, Spirituality) is a practical roadmap for chronic disease prevention and sustainable health. What You'll LearnHow fasting and plant-forward eating triggered Dr. Thompson's health transformationWhy medical education still provides minimal nutrition trainingHow plants impact inflammation, cholesterol, metabolic health, and cognitive resilienceThe truth about protein needs and nutrient considerations (B12, omega-3s)How to start a plant-forward lifestyle without going “all or nothing”Health disparities in Black communities and why trust in healthcare remains fracturedThe FEARLESS Wellness pillars and how to apply themKey TopicsPlant-forward nutrition · fasting · inflammation · lifestyle medicine · sleep · stress · chronic disease prevention · community health · spirituality · affordabilityTime Stamps:00:00 — Intro: Why nutrition conversations are polarized01:30 — Meet Dr. James Thompson03:11 — How the 21-day Daniel Fast changed everything04:00 — Running, meds, and early health struggles05:23 — The nutrition gap in medical training07:20 — Diving into nutrition education08:00 — Fasting & time-restricted eating10:00 — How plant-forward living improved his health11:20 — Greens, beans, berries & whole foods12:21 — Unexpected vision improvements14:29 — Defining plant-based vs. plant-forward15:20 — Protein myths & amino acid basics18:43 — How much protein you really need20:44 — Key nutrients: B12 & omega-3s24:26 — Getting omegas from plant foods26:04 — Why patients trusted his holistic approach29:51 — Introducing lifestyle medicine in practice32:32 — Reversing chronic conditions through diet34:29 — Planting seeds for long-term change37:13 — Asthma, acne & inflammation stories40:01 — Creating the FEARLESS Method42:45 — The 8 FEARLESS pillars45:16 — Starting small without overwhelm48:25 — Working with the Black community51:34 — Why medical mistrust persists54:00 — COVID-19 & vulnerable populations56:13 — The limits of access without education57:03 — His current work & foundation59:15 — What to buy with $5 for a healthy meal1:00:50 — Spiritual frameworks for hard times1:02:08 — Closing reflectionsNotable Quotes“Within six months of going plant-based, I no longer needed blood pressure or cholesterol medication.” “Doctors learn to diagnose and prescribe, not prevent.” About Dr. James Thompson, MDDr. Thompson spent over three decades in allergy/immunology and internal medicine before shifting to lifestyle health education.

Turkeys and Eagles, Part 5: Following Jesus Changes Everything in Our Families MESSAGE SUMMARY:    Series Overview: This Series has been looking at Paul's letter to the Ephesians to point out “Turkeyisms” – those things of our culture and some worldviews by which we may have been duped into beliefs inconsistent with the Gospel of Jesus or behaving in a manner that is not what Christianity is all about. This Series has pointed out some changes in our thinking needed to be like “Eagles” so that we can be the people that God wants and expects us to be. Today's Sermon: A look into Ephesians 5 provides a perspective on many “Turkeyisms”; however, the focus today is just on one: Turkey Thinking – “My Christianity has no effect on my family relationships, but my upbringing does”; but Eagle Thinking – My Christianity places me in the Kingdom of God with a radically different view of family relationships”. Being in the Kingdom of God Changes everything for those that follow Jesus. Marriage in America is having a rough time, and we can't say that Christian marriage is different. Too many of us, who say that we follow Jesus today, don't let Christianity follow us through the front door as we live our secular lives. In the First Century of the Ephesians, both Jewish and Greek laws greatly diminished the roles, respect for, and value of women. In the Roman world, of the same period, women and children were just passed around – women had many husbands. It was into this world of Judaism and Greco Roman culture that Jesus walked in; and we found Jesus respecting and honoring women. Jesus raised the status of women – Jesus brought a whole new way of thinking about family, marriage, children, and divorce into First Century culture that has provided an ethical context for two thousand years. In the same period and culture, Paul came along; and he set up churches. He wrote letters, which were written in the culture of this period, to the Christians in churches like the church in Ephesus. These early Christians were a part of the Kingdom of God – the blessed followers of Jesus – they were called to be filled with the Holy Spirit and to be imitators of Jesus. Therefore, followers of Jesus were to be vessels of His light to the world. Followers of Jesus were to be different from this culture of the period. By being different in their families, followers of Jesus would transform the culture (which, eventually, they did!!!). From Ephesians 5:21, we are to “submit to one another out of reverence for Christ”. “Submitting” is treating others like you wish to be treated. In Ephesians 5, Paul applies this principle of Christianity to the family (i.e. wives, husbands, and children) and to the workplace (i.e. employees). The Kingdom of God calls us to loving family relationships; therefore we, as followers of Jesus, are called to be different and not a part of the culture.   TODAY'S PRAYER: Lord, Sabbath rest is truly an unbelievable gift! Thank you that there is nothing I can do to earn your love; it comes without any strings attached. As I close my eyes for these few minutes before you, all I can say is, thank you!

This episode covers: • Nano CBD Pain Relief Without Cognitive Side Effects A new nano-micelle formulation of CBD called CBD-IN delivers fast, non-addictive pain relief in mice without memory issues, motor impairment or the usual cannabinoid “fog.” Because it crosses the blood brain barrier and directly targets hyperactive pain circuits, it sidesteps many opioid-type drawbacks. Dave explains why precision-designed cannabinoids could reshape chronic pain treatment and longevity support. Source: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/11/251117095652.htm • Moderate Calorie Restriction Slows Biological Aging A long-term trial from the National Institute on Aging found that cutting calories by about 12% over two years slowed the pace of aging — measured by methylation clocks and metabolic markers — in lean and mildly overweight adults alike. Dave breaks down why small, manageable dietary tweaks can deliver big longevity gains, without crash dieting or extreme fasting. Source: https://www.nia.nih.gov/news/cutting-calories-may-slow-pace-aging-healthy-adults • FDA Approves AI-Guided Robotic Surgery Trials for Alzheimer's The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted IDE approval for the first robotic microsurgical study targeting early stage Alzheimer's disease using AI and deep imaging. The trial uses adaptive robotics to target deep brain lymphatic pathways, potentially clearing amyloid/tau deposits with surgical precision. Dave explains why this signals a new era in neurodegeneration – moving from drug-only to machine-assisted brain repair. Source: https://www.mmimicro.com/ide-approval-for-first-robotic-microsurgery-alzheimers-study/ • Antibiotic Reprograms Gut Bacteria to Produce Anti-Aging Molecules Researchers demonstrated that the veterinary antibiotic cephaloridine can reprogram gut microbes to secrete colanic acid — a molecule linked to better mitochondrial health, reduced gut permeability and improved cholesterol/insulin balance in mice. Dave explores how this could evolve into a pipeline of engineered probiotics that act as internal “longevity factories.” Source: https://newatlas.com/aging/antibiotic-longevity-microbiome/ (link remains unchanged) • Klotho: The Longevity Protein Nears Clinical Reality The longevity protein Klotho, known for clearing toxic by-products, calming inflammation and protecting brain/organ networks, is now advancing toward human trials via injectables, oral formats and gene therapy. Dave explains why Klotho is shaping up as a foundational target for next-gen age-reversal strategies and stacking protocols.

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.

Methylene blue is one of the most misunderstood compounds in biohacking, yet it can upgrade your energy, mood, memory, and cellular resilience when you use it the right way. We are back again with another solo masterclass, and this one breaks down how to use methylene blue as a precision tool for brain optimization, longevity, and human performance while avoiding the dosing mistakes that create jitteriness, sleep disruption, or dangerous interactions. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey guides you through more than a century of research on methylene blue. He has been hacking this compound since the early 2000s and brings deep insight into mitochondria, neuroplasticity, metabolism, supplements, fasting, red light, ketosis, nootropics, and functional medicine. You will learn how methylene blue works inside the cell, how it improves electron transport, and why it appears in neurology, psychiatry, and anti aging research at the same time. This episode shows you how to test your own dose, how to stack it with light and ketosis for maximum effect, and how to avoid serotonin syndrome or sleep disruption. Methylene blue also touches nearly every major system that biohackers care about, which is why this solo masterclass shows you how it interacts with mitochondria, neuroplasticity, metabolism, sleep optimization, and long term anti aging pathways. You will hear how it influences redox balance, ATP production, brain optimization, and stress resilience, and how it behaves when combined with ketosis, fasting, creatine, NAD boosters, red light therapy, or other nootropics. Host Dave Asprey explains why methylene blue pairs well with certain supplements but clashes with psychedelics or SSRI medications, how it fits into functional medicine protocols for mitochondrial repair, and how to use data and wearable tracking to dial in your response. This episode gives you a complete framework to evaluate whether methylene blue belongs in your personal longevity strategy and how to use it with precision instead of guesswork. You'll Learn: • Why methylene blue acts like mitochondrial jumper cables and when it improves energy and mood • The exact signs that your dose is too strong, too weak, or in the Goldilocks zone • How methylene blue interacts with neuroplasticity, memory circuits, and cognitive resilience • Why psychedelics, SSRIs, and MAO inhibitors can create dangerous serotonin interactions • How to pair methylene blue with red light therapy, ketosis, creatine, fasting, or NAD boosters • The link between mitochondrial health, fertility, libido, and long term anti aging strategies • How to track sleep optimization, HRV, and performance signals to dial in your personal protocol • The difference between aquarium grade dye and pharmaceutical grade formulations • Why genetic testing for G6PD deficiency is essential before higher dose experimentation Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.

A single shift in your morning routine could change your energy, your mood, and even how you age!! And…your sex drive will improve too! Are you struggling with menopausal weight gain, endless food cravings, or feeling like your body just isn't working the way it used to? You're not alone. In this groundbreaking episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Dr. Mindy Pelz — leading expert in women's health, hormone science, and fasting, and author of Age Like a Girl — exposes the truth about why women age differently, what's really behind weight gain during menopause, and how to train your fat-burning metabolism to finally work with you, not against you. She reveals why everyone should care about women and how they age (it affects more than just women's health!), the real causes of menopausal weight gain and how it differs from regular weight gain (and yes, it's fixable!), how to train your metabolic system to burn fat efficiently (even after 40!), the mental health and chronic disease benefits of fasting, (especially for women in menopause), and the dangers of the “Make America Healthy Again” movement (what they're getting wrong about your health!).

Bioelectronic medicine is changing how we treat inflammation, autoimmunity, and chronic disease, and this episode shows you exactly how nerve stimulation could redefine human performance, longevity, and brain optimization. You will learn how electricity, neurotransmitters, and targeted neural pathways can replace drugs, control inflammation, and help you hack the vagus nerve with precision instead of guesswork. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey is joined by Kevin J. Tracey, MD, president and CEO of the Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research at Northwell Health, pioneer of vagus nerve research, and author of The Great Nerve. He is one of the world's most cited scientists in inflammation and neuroscience, and his discoveries created the field now known as bioelectronic medicine. He identified the therapeutic action of anti TNF antibodies, mapped the inflammatory reflex, and revealed how vagus nerve signaling controls immunity. With more than 450 scientific publications and over 120 U.S. patents, he is a trusted authority whose work drives the future of anti-aging, functional medicine, metabolism, and neural therapies. Dr. Tracey and Host Dave Asprey explore how the vagus nerve truly operates, why it contains 200,000 fibers with different functions, and what happens when you stimulate specific pathways that regulate inflammation, HRV, neurotransmitters, and immune signaling. You will learn how nerve impulses transmit information, how voltage gated ion channels shape behavior and biology, and why certain forms of stimulation create measurable improvements in mitochondria, metabolic control, sleep optimization, and emotional regulation. They break down the science behind surgical vagus nerve implants, focused ultrasound, gamma entrainment, cytokine control, and real neuromodulation. They also explore why cold plunging, breath work, HRV training, nootropics, and consumer devices vary so widely in their effects, and how to evaluate these tools with practical biohacking frameworks. You will hear what actually works, what remains experimental, and what the next decade of nerve based therapies could unlock for brain optimization, longevity, ketosis, fasting, supplements, and AI guided interventions in human biology. You'll Learn: • How vagus nerve stimulation reduces inflammation through the inflammatory reflex • Why bioelectronic medicine can replace drugs in autoimmune conditions • How nerve fibers relay electrical and chemical signals inside the body • Why cold immersion, breath work, and HRV training activate specific vagal pathways • How 40 hertz gamma entrainment may influence cognitive decline • Which stimulation methods have clinical validation and which do not • Why high vagal tone is linked to better metabolism, immunity, and emotional stability • What future nerve based technologies may unlock for 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 brings you the knowledge to take control of your biology, extend your longevity, and optimize every system in your body and mind. Each episode delivers cutting-edge insights in health, performance, neuroscience, supplements, nutrition, biohacking, emotional intelligence, and conscious living. New episodes are released every Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Sunday (BONUS). Dave asks the questions no one else will and gives you real tools to become stronger, smarter, and more resilient.

A single shift in your morning routine could change your energy, your mood, and even how you age!! And…your sex drive will improve too! Are you struggling with menopausal weight gain, endless food cravings, or feeling like your body just isn't working the way it used to? You're not alone. In this groundbreaking episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdow, Dr. Mindy Pelz — leading expert in women's health, hormone science, and fasting, and author of Age Like a Girl — exposes the truth about why women age differently, what's really behind weight gain during menopause, and how to train your fat-burning metabolism to finally work with you, not against you. She reveals why everyone should care about women and how they age (it affects more than just women's health!), the real causes of menopausal weight gain and how it differs from regular weight gain (and yes, it's fixable!), how to train your metabolic system to burn fat efficiently (even after 40!), the mental health and chronic disease benefits of fasting, (especially for women in menopause), and the dangers of the “Make America Healthy Again” movement (what they're getting wrong about your health!).
