Could your sugar cravings be quietly setting the stage for your next migraine, even if you think you “handle carbs just fine”?In this episode of Migraine Heroes Podcast, host Diane Ducarme explores one of the most misunderstood migraine triggers: blood sugar instability. Not sugar itself but the spikes, crashes, and nervous-system stress that come with it.Many people with migraines are told to “just cut sugar.” But migraine brains don't respond well to restriction or perfection. They respond to rhythm, stability, and context.This episode breaks down why blood sugar swings matter and how to work with cravings instead of fighting them.In this episode, you'll learn:

You're taking 600 IU of vitamin D.Your labs say “normal.”But you could still be deficient. In this episode, Ben reveals why the official vitamin D recommendations were based on preventing rickets, not optimizing immunity, metabolism, muscle, or brain health. Independent researchers reanalyzed the original RDA data and found the required intake for adequacy was dramatically higher — yet the guidelines barely changed. Vitamin D is not just a vitamin. It functions like a steroid hormone and impacts: Immune regulation Inflammation control Insulin sensitivity Muscle protein synthesis Brain function Low vitamin D is strongly associated with insulin resistance, and since 93% of Americans are insulin resistant, this could be a massive blind spot. Ben also explains: Why “normal” lab ranges may still mean deficiency Why optimal levels should be above 60 ng/mL How obesity lowers circulating vitamin D Why magnesium and vitamin K2 are required for proper activation Why toxicity fears are overblown compared to widespread insufficiency You'll also learn the simple 3-step plan to optimize vitamin D safely: Smart midday sun exposure Intelligent supplementation with D3 + K2 + magnesium Regular testing and cofactor support If you're over 45, insulin resistant, or struggling with stubborn inflammation, this episode could be a game changer.

While the national news cycle may have moved on from the chaos in Minnesota surrounding Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the deeper story is only beginning to surface. What happened in Minneapolis wasn't spontaneous, but the result of weeks of astroturfed chaos following expanded federal immigration enforcement and a fatal ICE-involved shooting that ignited demonstrations across the state. To truly understand how the situation spiraled, you have to understand who helped fuel the unrest and who financed the networks that kept it going. That's exactly what Daily Wire reporter Brecca Stoll has been investigating. She joins the latest episode of “Problematic Women” to unpack the money, organizations and political forces operating behind the scenes. And don't think we've forgotten about New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani. About one month into his tenure, he now faces the reality of governing the nation's largest municipal economy. Conservatives warned his democratic socialist promises would collide with real-life fiscal and political constraints. And now, New Yorkers are paying for it.

This week, Scheana welcomes Kiki Monique and Ryan Bailey back to the studio. From Lunar New Year superstitions (no sweeping, no black outfits, and Kristen Doute on strict “don't break anything” watch) to baby prep and psychic readings from the other side, nothing is off limits. Ryan reveals his baby girl's name and jokes that karma may have caught up with him after once spilling Summer Moon's name before Scheana was ready. They also compare birth plans versus delivery-room reality (because sometimes sh*t goes out the window… or on the table). Then it's a deep dive into Netflix's Reality Check: Inside America's Next Top Model. Kiki admits she used to be one of Tyra's biggest defenders — until this documentary reframed everything. The trio unpacks reality TV's pressure machine, accountability, and body commentary culture, as Scheana reflects on her own experiences on Reality TV, and explains why stepping away from it can be the only way to grow. Plus, they discuss Dorinda stepping up after Jill's E! exit, and Scheana reveals which friendships she shed in the Year of the Snake — and why, in the Year of the Fire Horse, she's not going back.

Negotiated Settlements and Expanding Security States. Anatol Lieven explains the European left's growing concerns about the Ukraine war fueling authoritarian security and surveillance measures. While a negotiated settlement requiring Ukraine to surrender the Donbas seems impossible in Kyiv, the conflict risks becoming a prolonged war of attrition dictated by modern drone warfare. #21918 4TH LIGHT HORSE IN THE JUDEAN HILLS
What if the fueling strategy you've followed for years is no longer the one that best supports your performance?In Episode 131 of The Eat for Endurance Podcast, I'm joined by elite ultrarunner and coach Zach Bitter for a thoughtful conversation about his experience with both low and high carb fueling.After following a low carb diet for 14 years, including when he broke the World and American Records in the 100-mile distance, he decided to change course and try high carb fueling. It's been 8 months now of experimenting with more carbs, and so far, he's had a very positive experience.Zach and I discuss:Why he originally went low carb as a younger ultrarunnerWhat his particular flavor of low carb fueling looked like in practiceWhat motivated him to dramatically increase his carb intake last yearHow high carb fueling has influenced his recent training and racingWhy you shouldn't make one single diet your whole identityThe importance of curiosity and flexibility for long-term health and performanceThis episode is full of nuance, and underscores the fact that there is no one-size-fits-all diet. As Zach says in the episode, don't be afraid to try something new, because if it doesn't work out, you can always go back to what you were doing before!

Welcome to episode 284 of the Better With Running podcast, hosted by Run2PB coaches Chris Armstrong and Zac Newman. The show kicks off with the weekly training wrap-up, where Chris shares his 77km week, highlighted by a grueling session of hill repeats transitioned into a 5km threshold. Despite a tiring two-hour long run and a particularly memorable encounter with an oversized dog at Parkrun, Chris managed to maintain his consistency. Zac also shares his progress as he navigates some back management with help from fellow coach James Telford, reporting a much-improved 100-minute long run at Yarra Flats that signaled a positive turn in his recovery.The heart of the episode features an interview with Drysdale based athlete Dylan Smith, who joined the Run2PB community in early 2025. Dylan discusses his rapid progression under the guidance of coach James Telford, moving from a self-described "post-COVID runner" to a serious competitor hitting major milestones. His transformation is evidenced by his significant PB improvements, including dropping his 5km time from over 22 minutes to a swift 20:11 and shaving nearly seven minutes off his half-marathon best. Dylan reflects on the importance of structured coaching and the community support that has fueled his journey from his first around the block truggle to completing the Sydney Marathon. Dylan speaks candidly about his motivation for running, which stems from a desire to be a healthy role model for his son. This personal "why" has helped him stay disciplined through the early morning sessions and the inevitable "grind" of marathon training blocks.The episode wraps up with a signature round of quick-fire questions that reveal Dylan's life outside of the sport. Listeners get a glimpse into his "cheeky" hobby of gaming, his preference for Garmin over Coros and he shares his current shoe rotation.To close the show, the coaches offer a special treat for the listeners with a discount for Oat Running socks.

We can work hard. We can set big goals. We can stay consistent. But if we're constantly sharing those goals with people who doubt us, downplay them, or don't understand them, it slowly chips away at our confidence.We are the product of the energy around us.In this episode, we talk about building a business village that pushes us forward instead of pulling us back. Because wedding photographers and filmmakers often work in isolation, and isolation can stunt momentum. We've seen it over and over again. When creatives step into rooms filled with growth-minded entrepreneurs, their confidence rises, their pricing increases, and their businesses expand.We all start at the same starting line. The difference is who we allow to influence us along the way.You can only win if you decide to GO FOR IT

Have you ever wondered if the oils sitting in your pantry might actually be contributing to inflammation? In this episode, I'm diving into one of the most overlooked pieces of the inflammation puzzle: the types of fats we're using every day. Many of the oils marketed as "healthy" may actually be disrupting omega balance, stressing the gut, and keeping inflammation quietly simmering in the background. I'm breaking down: • What makes certain seed oils inflammatory • Why the omega-6 to omega-3 ratio matters so much • Which fats I personally avoid • The traditional, stable fats I use instead • How to confidently read ingredient labels at the store This conversation builds directly on the last two episodes where I shared our personal health journey through a cancer diagnosis and what chronic inflammation really looks like in the body. If you haven't listened to those yet, I encourage you to start there:
In this episode, we welcome Edward Fitzpatrick, CEO of Conflow Power, to discuss the revolutionary "iLamp." Edward explains how he is transforming the humble street light from a "dumb," single-use utility into a smart, multi-functional device likening the shift to the evolution from a simple watch to a smartphone. He details the groundbreaking battery technology behind it, which allows these lamps to function off-grid by harvesting ambient energy, effectively creating a self-sustaining power source on every street corner. The conversation expands into the critical intersection of energy and Artificial Intelligence. Edward introduces the concept of "AI Factories"—off-grid data centers powered entirely by renewable sources. He argues that as AI's power consumption skyrockets, the traditional grid cannot cope, necessitating a move to decentralized power solutions that can rejuvenate rural areas and farms while supporting the next generation of computing without environmental cost. Finally, Edward highlights the immense educational potential of this technology, inviting schools and universities to witness these innovations firsthand at their site in Warwickshire. He believes that seeing "live physics" and tangible coding applications can inspire a new generation of engineers. You can learn more about these projects at ilamp.com, conflowpower.com, and aifactories.com
Today, Jess, Morgan, Les, and Matt examine whether real change could finally be coming to Cuba. The United States has declared a national emergency with respect to Cuba and threatened tariffs on countries supplying the island with oil. This follows Washington's move to cut off Venezuelan oil, leaving the island increasingly isolated as its economy buckles under decades of mismanagement. At the same time, Russia and China continue to use Cuba as a platform for intelligence and influence just miles from American shores.Does this moment present a genuine strategic opportunity to reshape the balance of power in the Caribbean? What are national security risks posed by Russian and Chinese activity on and around the island? What would meaningful change in Cuba actually look like?Check out the answers to these questions and more in this episode of Fault Lines.@NotTVJessJones@lestermunson@morganlroach@WMattHaydenLike what we're doing here?

Coffee is comforting. Familiar. For many of us, it's the unofficial start button for the day. But have you ever paused to wonder whether your daily caffeine habit is truly supporting your health—or simply helping you push through exhaustion? In this episode, we take an honest, balanced look at caffeine from a Christian, whole-person perspective. We'll talk about the potential benefits, the possible downsides, and how caffeine can affect sleep, stress, mood, and even our sense of freedom. This conversation is for Christian women who want to care for their bodies with wisdom and discernment. The goal isn't to shame coffee drinkers or create fear—it's to help you slow down, think clearly, and consider what's best for your body and season of life. What Caffeine Really Is Caffeine is often treated as harmless and normal, but it's technically considered a stimulant that affects the nervous system. It naturally occurs in coffee beans, tea leaves, and cacao, and it's also manufactured and added to many processed foods and drinks. Most of us think of caffeine as something found only in coffee or soda. But it also shows up in places like: Energy drinks Pain relievers Chocolate and candy Certain gums and mints Even some personal care products In the United States, the majority of adults consume caffeine every day, often without giving it much thought. The Helpful Side of Caffeine Caffeine isn't automatically “bad.” Used in reasonable amounts, it can offer real benefits, such as: Feeling more awake and alert Sharper reaction time Short-term mental focus Extra stamina for certain tasks Occasional support with pain relief For some women, a cup of coffee is simply enjoyable and fits well into a healthy lifestyle. The concern isn't caffeine itself. The concern is how easily it can become a crutch instead of a choice. The Possible Downsides What gives you energy in the morning can also interfere with your body in ways you might not notice right away. Regular caffeine use has been linked with things like: Trouble falling or staying asleep Higher stress and anxiety levels Changes in heart rate and blood pressure Feeling wired but tired Increased irritability Negative effects for sensitive individuals One of the biggest traps is the cycle many women get stuck in: Not enough sleep → more caffeine → worse sleep → even more caffeine. Over time, caffeine can become both the thing you rely on for energy and the very thing stealing your rest. Dependence Is More Common Than We Realize Most people don't think of caffeine as something you can be dependent on. But many experience real physical effects when they stop using it. Common symptoms after cutting back include: Headaches Low energy Difficulty focusing Mood changes Feeling achy or “off” Because these feelings are uncomfortable, it's easy to reach for more coffee just to avoid them. That's how a simple habit can slowly turn into something we feel controlled by. A Faith-Centered Lens on Coffee and Caffeine As Christian women, we're invited to live with freedom and wisdom in every area of life—including our daily habits. Scripture offers this gentle reminder: “All things are lawful for me, but not all things are helpful… I will not be dominated by anything.” – 1 Corinthians 6:12 Coffee may be permissible. Caffeine may be socially normal. But a better question is: Is it truly helpful for you right now? If you feel like you can't function without caffeine, or you're using it to ignore exhaustion instead of listening to your body, that may be worth bringing before the Lord. Your body was designed for rhythms of rest and restoration. Stimulants can't replace what real sleep and peace provide. Time-Stamped Highlights 00:00 – An honest conversation about America's favorite legal drug 01:00 – Understanding what caffeine actually is 02:00 – Surprising places caffeine can be found 03:20 – How caffeine can create a sleep cycle problem 03:45 – Possible benefits of moderate caffeine use 04:10 – Potential effects on the heart and stress levels 05:00 – Special concerns for pregnancy, breastfeeding, and children 07:20 – How caffeine withdrawal can show up 09:40 – Why caffeine often masks deeper fatigue 10:15 – A biblical perspective on being mastered by habits 11:10 – Ways to evaluate your own caffeine use Key Takeaways Caffeine can be useful—but it can also quietly interfere with sleep and stress. Many people rely on caffeine more than they realize. More coffee isn't always the answer to low energy. Each woman's body responds differently—discernment matters. Faith invites us to care for our bodies with intention, not autopilot. Instead of asking, “Am I allowed to drink coffee?” consider asking: “Is this helping me thrive—or just helping me keep going when I need rest?” If this episode made you pause and think about your own habits—whether with caffeine, sleep, stress, or energy—you don't have to sort it all out alone. I offer one-on-one Health Clarity Sessions where we slow everything down and talk through what's really going on in your life and your body. These sessions are gentle, practical, and focused on helping you feel calm and confident about your next steps. No pressure. No complicated plans. Just a peaceful space to get clear.

“Healthy, happy, and balanced athletes are the ones that make it across the finish line again and again throughout a long career and leave a legacy.” — Jessie DigginsJessie Diggins is currently competing in her fourth and final Winter Olympics in Milan-Cortina. I interviewed her back in January 2021, just one week after her historic Tour de Ski win on some of the same Italian mountains she's skiing on now. Since our recording, Jessie has become the most accomplished cross-country skier from the US, with 4 Olympic medals (she won her 4th one today!), 3 World Cup overall titles, 7 World Championship medals, and countless other accolades. Even though it's no longer Covid times (thank goodness), this powerful conversation about fueling for joy, resilience, and longevity in sport remains just as relevant and important today. ---In Episode 37, I'm honored to be joined by cross-country skier and Olympic gold medalist Jessie Diggins. She is not only dominating her sport, but also using her platform to promote healthy fueling, body positivity, and the importance of enjoying food without restriction.Many fans first fell in love with Jessie during the 2018 Winter Olympics, where she and Kikkan Randall won the first-ever American gold medal in cross-country skiing. At the time of this interview, Jessie had also just won the Tour de Ski, becoming the first American to claim the title.In this conversation, Jessie challenges the idea that leanness leads to success, reminding athletes that “Skinny doesn't win races. Fast wins races.” She emphasizes that fueling well, prioritizing health, and embracing joy are essential to reaching the start line ready to race.

The straight line to D1 is a myth, and Arkansas forward Bella Field is here to prove it. From Denver beginnings to Kansas City's hotbed, from DA turbulence to an NPL reset that rebuilt her confidence, Bella shares a refreshingly honest map through the most confusing moment youth soccer has ever seen. You'll hear what actually gets you noticed, camps, clear emails, and a style of play that fits your DNA, and why chasing prestige without fit slows your growth.We dive inside the Razorback culture, where brutal honesty and real belief from Coach Colby Hale forge players who can hold up to the SEC's tempo. Bella breaks down the jump to college: no “commercial breaks,” faster decisions, serious weight-room demands, and the value of enrolling early to learn speed and strength before big non-conference tests. Her practical take for recruits and parents is pure gold: be the player who moves off the ball, creates chains of play, and keeps fitness high enough to repeat actions under pressure.Fueling and recovery become strategic, not optional. Bella opens up about rehabbing through surgeries, stacking protein and carbs, leaning on teammates and a great dietitian, and rejecting toxic body standards in favor of performance strength. We zoom out to the surging women's game, NWSL stars, international talent, and the rise of USL Super League, and why Northwest Arkansas already offers one of the best match day atmospheres in college soccer. Add a local pro pathway and you turn inspiration into a short drive.We close with World Cup picks, a nod to Spain's youth-powered flair, and a challenge to the U.S. to capitalize on home turf. If you care about player development, recruiting, or building a resilient team culture, this conversation gives you tools you can use today.

Are you really getting enough protein as an athlete, or are social media food rules steering you wrong? In this episode, we break down one of the most commonly asked questions in nutrition and explain what protein needs actually look like for athletes in real life. We react to viral nutrition content that shocks people, like recommending Rice Krispy treats for athletes, and explain why sugar is not the enemy when it comes to fueling performance. We dive into purposeful snacking, ingredient obsession, and how carbohydrate sources support training, recovery, and consistency for athletes. You will also hear our unfiltered take on the word "healthy" and why labeling foods as good or bad often hurts athlete performance more than it helps. If you are an athlete confused about protein intake, sugar, snacks, or what "healthy eating" even means anymore, this episode is your reset. This conversation is for athletes who want better performance without burnout, food guilt, or chasing perfection. Expect nuance, science, and practical takeaways you can actually use.

www.teachhoops.com — In-season success isn't just practice and film. It's fuel. In this episode, Coach Collins talks about nutrition during the season and why so many teams hit the wall in February: not because they're “out of shape,” but because they're under-fueled, dehydrated, and running on fast food and vibes. We break down the simple coaching approach to nutrition: keep it realistic, repeatable, and parent-friendly. You'll hear what matters most for players—hydration, timing meals around games, smarter snacks, and recovery after practices—without turning your program into a diet plan. The goal is better energy, fewer cramps, quicker recovery, and sharper focus late in games. Coach Collins also shares practical team solutions: a basic “game day fuel” checklist, what to avoid right before tip, and how to build a culture where players make better choices without you policing every bite. If you want your team to feel better, think clearer, and play harder when it matters most—start with what's in the tank. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
Real Life Runners I Tying Running and Health into a Family-Centered Life
In this solo episode, I'm taking some time to pause, reflect, and look back on 45 years of life, growth, and learning—both on and off the run. I'm sharing the lessons that have shaped me as a runner, a coach, and a human, and the shifts that continue to guide how I show up today.I talk about how my relationship with health and fitness has evolved over the years—from wanting to be skinny to wanting to be strong, from restriction to truly fueling my body, and from chasing outcomes to learning how to enjoy the process. I share how letting go of the need to be right has opened the door to getting it right—especially when it comes to growth, grace, and self-awareness.This episode goes deeper than training, too. I reflect on moving from a victim mindset to taking ownership of my life, from searching for an identity to choosing one, and from constantly proving myself to trusting myself. I also get honest about the things I'm still working through—procrastination, accepting support, and caring less about other people's opinions.If you're in a season of transition, questioning old patterns, or feeling called to grow into a stronger, more aligned version of yourself, this episode is for you. My hope is that my reflections encourage you to pause, reflect, and give yourself permission to evolve, without needing to have it all figured out.Come hang out with me for a real, honest conversation that feels more like a coaching session for real life.Thanks for being here and running this journey with me.04:08 Embracing Strength Over Skinniness13:04 Fueling the Body with Love18:08 Trusting the Process Over Chasing Outcomes24:56 From Being Right to Getting It Right29:07 Parenting and Growth Mindset30:57 Shifting from Victim to Leader38:11 Choosing Your Identity43:06 Ongoing Personal DevelopmentJoin the 30 Day Running Reset and get a plan that will help you build a strong and injury-proof body by combining running and strength training in a way that actually works for runners like you.Gain access to my new secret podcast, Unbreakable: The Runner's Guide To Injury-Proofing Your Body After 40.

If you feel inflamed, exhausted, stuck in recovery mode, or like your body just doesn't bounce back the way it used to, this episode is for you. In this conversation, I sit down with Dr. Adam Boender, chiropractor-turned-peptide educator, to unpack how men can reclaim their health, energy, and recovery—without shortcuts or hype. Dr. Adam shares how peptides actually work at the cellular level, why most men don't have a deficiency problem but a communication problem inside their bodies, and how strategic tools like peptides, nutrition, and movement work best when paired with discipline and intention. We go deep on recovery peptides, fat loss versus weight loss, GLP-1 medications, food quality, inflammation, and why no supplement or peptide replaces doing the hard work. This episode is a masterclass in health, responsibility, and long-term performance for men who want their bodies—and lives—back. Timeline Summary [0:00] Why this episode is for men who feel inflamed, tired, and stuck [1:41] How Larry and Dr. Adam connected after a serious knee injury [2:38] Recovering from a ruptured patellar tendon and the urgency to heal [3:03] Dr. Adam's background as a chiropractor turned peptide educator [3:27] Teaching clinicians how to use peptides safely and effectively [4:08] Why peptides are still misunderstood by most men [6:20] From one-on-one practice to helping clinicians impact thousands [8:38] Family illness and the catalyst for Dr. Adam's career shift [10:16] Why "one-to-many" impact matters in healthcare [11:15] How peptides supported Larry's accelerated recovery [12:23] Getting off crutches and braces weeks ahead of schedule [13:33] Why peptides work best when paired with discipline and rehab [16:12] What peptides actually are and how cellular communication works [18:20] Epitalon: the "reset peptide" for sleep, recovery, and longevity [20:37] BPC-157 as the "multivitamin" of peptides [22:10] Gut health, inflammation, and joint recovery explained [24:17] How BPC-157 increases blood flow and healing in joints [26:13] Recovery break and nutrition fundamentals [28:04] Why BPC-157 and TB-500 are often paired together [29:16] TB-500 and stem cell signaling for tissue repair [31:09] Copper peptide for collagen, joints, and longevity [35:09] Injectable vs. oral peptide absorption [36:21] GLP-1 medications explained simply [38:12] Fat loss vs. weight loss and why protein intake matters [41:03] Why muscle preservation is critical during fat loss [43:03] Genetics, obesity, and the myth of "bad genes" [48:36] Peptides as tools—not magic bullets [50:54] Defining true health as the ability to heal [53:05] Why processed food is breaking our bodies [55:07] Eating real food as the foundation of health [57:32] Fueling your body like a high-performance machine Five Key Takeaways: Peptides improve cellular communication, but they don't replace discipline, movement, or nutrition. Inflammation and poor recovery are often communication problems, not deficiencies. Fat loss is not the same as weight loss, and preserving muscle must be the priority. Genetics load the gun, but lifestyle pulls the trigger, especially with health outcomes. True health is the body's ability to heal, not just the absence of disease.

Allie sits down with investigative journalist Peter Schweizer to unpack his explosive new book, "The Invisible Coup: How American Elites and Foreign Powers Use Immigration as a Weapon." Schweizer reveals how foreign actors — including the Chinese Communist Party, Mexico's government, the Muslim Brotherhood, and Hezbollah — are deliberately weaponizing mass immigration to destabilize the U.S., shift political power, exploit birthright citizenship, and fund radical networks inside America. From industrial-scale Chinese surrogacy schemes minting U.S. citizens to organized fraud rings and violent protests backed by foreign-directed groups, Schweizer exposes the coordinated assault on American sovereignty and why progressive chaos serves these agendas. A must-listen for understanding the real stakes behind today's immigration battles — truth over propaganda, clarity over manufactured outrage.
