Episode 2723 - Vinnie Tortorich and Chris Shaffer discuss adding protein to processed foods, GLP-1s, and how it's all "lipstick on a pig." https://vinnietortorich.com/2025/11/lipstick-on-a-pig-episode-2723 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods VILLA CAPPELLI EAT HAPPY KITCHEN YOU CAN WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE - @FitnessConfidential Podcast Lipstick On A Pig Vinnie and Chris have been working hard on manufacturing challenges. (3:00) There is a change in marketing around diet. (10:00) Pop-Tarts is claiming it has a high-protein version. They review the ingredients list. (15:30) It's essential to develop the persistence to achieve the success you want. (24:00) Other junk foods, such as Doritos, add protein. But don't be fooled! Adding protein to crappy food doesn't make the crappy food "healthy." (25:00) It's just putting "lipstick on a pig"! Metabolic damage can be seen in just a few short weeks when eating ultra-processed foods. (26:30) Chris discusses a study on weight gain from consuming ultra-processed foods. (27:00) Even if a brand you have used before has clean ingredients, you need to be vigilant and keep checking the ingredients, since companies will often add things that aren't good, such as seed oils. (33:00) California has claimed it will be ridding school lunches of junk food, but it is spreading the goal out over several years. (38:00) There Are Choices GLP-1s are now available as oral medication, but do they cause the same effect as the injectable ones? (49:30) The same dose is marketed as "similar." (51:00) People who have followed and stuck to NSNG have gotten off multiple medications. Personally, Vinnie stays away from certain meds, including hormones, because he wants to avoid a recurring cancer. (53:00) There are often a lot of things you can do before you turn to meds in many cases. (55:00) Proper nutrition, exercise (especially weight training), and things like vitamin D and magnesium help! Vinnie gives an example of how he has naturally improved his testosterone levels. You have to actually push yourself beyond a certain comfort level to see and feel a difference. (1:02:30) Sarcopenia happens to everyone, but you can absolutely fight it.

Jordan Sather and Nate Prince return with a packed episode of MAHA News, diving straight into winter wellness, immune support tricks, and the value of natural remedies before tackling the week's biggest health and agriculture stories. They break down Oregon and Washington's aggressive new regulations on small farmers, from redefining CAFOs to six-figure compliance demands and even satellite-based enforcement, highlighting how state governments are squeezing ranchers and threatening local food systems. Jordan and Nate also examine the booming GLP-1 weight-loss drug craze, Trump and RFK Jr.'s push to slash prices, and why these drugs should remain a last resort. The discussion expands to RFK Jr.'s announcement that mercury will finally be gone from vaccines, the upcoming overhaul of U.S. dietary guidelines, and the potential fallout of Congress closing the Delta-8 hemp loophole, putting much of the CBD industry at risk. Packed with analysis, personal insight, and forward-looking health strategies, this episode covers the shifting landscape of nutrition, policy, and natural living.

In this episode of the Gladden Longevity Podcast, Dr. Jeffrey Gladden interviews Dr. Michael Renzulli, who shares his journey into healthcare, transitioning from traditional practices to holistic approaches. They discuss the emergence of red light therapy, its scientific basis, and its applications in treating various health issues, particularly obesity and metabolic health. The conversation emphasizes the importance of innovative healing technologies and their potential to transform lives. In this conversation, Dr. Jeffrey Gladden and Dr. Mike Renzulli explore the evolution of healthcare from merely managing symptoms to addressing root causes through precision medicine. They discuss innovative approaches to weight loss, the importance of detoxification, and the role of GLP-1 medications. The conversation emphasizes the significance of body composition over weight alone, the impact of fasting, and the necessity of a systems approach to health optimization, including thyroid function and oxidative stress management. Ultimately, they advocate for personalized solutions tailored to individual needs for lasting health improvements.   For Audience Use code 'Podcast10' to get 10% OFF on any of our supplements at https://gladdenlongevityshop.com/ !    Takeaways         Dr. Renzulli's early inspiration for healthcare came from witnessing a life-saving moment.         His journey led him to explore holistic approaches after observing disillusionment in traditional doctors.         Red light therapy emerged as a significant tool in his practice, offering innovative health solutions.         The design and proximity of red light beds are crucial for effective treatment outcomes.         Different wavelengths of light have varying effects on the body, from skin rejuvenation to deeper tissue healing.         Red light therapy can enhance ATP production and reduce oxidative stress.         Integrating red light therapy with other treatments can improve metabolic health and energy levels.         Obesity is a growing epidemic, and red light therapy can play a role in weight loss.         The technology behind red light therapy is backed by numerous studies and evidence-based results.         Patients experience significant improvements in health and well-being through these innovative therapies. Patients are increasingly seeking root cause solutions rather than just symptom management.         Precision medicine offers real hope and tangible results for patients.         Weight loss strategies must focus on detoxification and cellular health.         Inflammation is a key factor in weight gain and insulin resistance.         A systematic approach to health can yield better outcomes than isolated treatments.         Body composition is a more important metric than weight alone.         GLP-1 medications can have adverse effects on muscle and bone density.         Fasting can be beneficial if done correctly, focusing on fat loss rather than muscle loss.         Precision medicine requires a deep understanding of individual genetics and biology.         A comprehensive approach to health includes monitoring thyroid function and metabolic rates.   Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Healthcare Journey 03:01 Transitioning from Traditional to Holistic Healthcare 06:12 The Rise of Red Light Therapy 08:56 Understanding Red Light Technology 11:52 The Science Behind Wavelengths and Healing 14:55 Applications of Red Light Therapy in Health 17:55 Addressing Obesity and Metabolic Health 20:50 Integrating Therapies for Optimal Health 23:45 The Shift from Symptom Management to Root Cause Healing 24:40 Real Results: The Promise of Precision Medicine 25:59 Innovative Approaches to Weight Loss and Wellness 28:50 The Science of Detoxification and Cellular Reset 31:05 Understanding Oxidative Stress and Inflammation 32:37 The Importance of Body Composition Over Weight 36:01 The Role of GLP-1 in Weight Management 38:34 Fasting and Its Impact on Body Composition 40:52 Precision Medicine: Tailoring Solutions for Individuals 42:07 Balancing Thyroid Function for Weight Loss 46:49 The Systems Approach to Health Optimization   To learn more about Dr. Renzulli: Email:  info@bioantiage.com Website: www.bioantiage.com   Reach out to us at:    Website: https://gladdenlongevity.com/     Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Gladdenlongevity/    Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/gladdenlongevity/?hl=en     LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/gladdenlongevity    YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5_q8nexY4K5ilgFnKm7naw       Gladden Longevity Podcast Disclosures Production & Independence The Gladden Longevity Podcast and Age Hackers are produced by Gladden Longevity Podcast, which operates independently from Dr. Jeffrey Gladden's clinical practice and research at Gladden Longevity in Irving, Texas.

In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Sue DeCotiis, a board-certified physician specializing in integrative medicine, weight management, and age optimization. With over two decades of experience, Dr. DeCotiis has become a leading voice in personalized preventive medicine, combining cutting-edge scientific research with functional approaches to help patients achieve optimal health and longevity. Dr. DeCotiis shares her expertise on the most innovative regenerative and metabolic therapies transforming modern medicine. She dives into exosome therapy, explaining how these tiny vesicles secreted by stem cells are being used to promote tissue repair and reduce inflammation, as well as the science behind PRP (platelet-rich plasma) treatments for joint health, hair restoration, and skin rejuvenation. She discusses stem cell therapies—separating hype from reality, explaining the different types of stem cells, their legitimate applications, and what the current research actually supports versus what remains experimental. She breaks down the science behind GLP-1 receptor agonists—the groundbreaking medications like semaglutide and tirzepatide that are revolutionizing weight loss and metabolic health. She explains how they work, who benefits most, the nuances of proper prescribing and the critical importance of measuring body fat and hydration vs weight loss.  Whether you're curious about the latest in regenerative medicine or looking to optimize your healthspan, this conversation offers an evidence-based roadmap to the future of personalized medicine.

Episode 2722 - Vinnie Tortorich and Chris Shaffer welcome a special guest to discuss food addiction, improving habits, and how some habits die hard. https://vinnietortorich.com/2025/11/some-habits-die-hard-episode-2722 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods VILLA CAPPELLI EAT HAPPY KITCHEN YOU CAN WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE - @FitnessConfidential Podcast Some Habits Die Hard GLP-1 ads have been placed in front of Vinnie's show in specific markets. (3:00) Specific platforms do not allow control over what ads are placed. It is frustrating, and Vinnie and Chris are looking for solutions. Vinnie acknowledges that GLP-1s can help people lose weight, but there are issues with side effects and the lack of help with bad eating habits. (10:00) He gives the example of his brother, Mark, who is on the highest dose of a GLP-1 and still has trouble resisting certain foods. His brother Mark joined the show for the discussion, and they went over some of Mark's habits. Some habits die hard. Vinnie is super proud of Mark for taking up indoor cycling. (26:00) Mark has been motivated by wanting to be more active for his grandchild. Mark still has challenges due to food addiction, but he does have goals.

What if blockbuster weight-loss drugs and a broken food system are two sides of the same story? We sit down with Dr. David Harlan—physician, researcher, and former NIH diabetes branch chief—to trace the unlikely path from the “incretin effect” to GLP-1 therapies that are transforming care for type 2 diabetes and obesity. Along the way, we ask harder questions about incentives, access, and why lifestyle still matters even when the medicine is powerful.Dr. Harlan breaks down how GLP-1 receptor agonists amplify insulin release, quiet cravings, and drive meaningful weight loss—often alongside better blood pressure, improved A1C, and fewer heart events. He explains the Gila monster connection, why weekly injections replaced multiple daily shots, and what the latest safety data actually shows. We get candid about what happens when people stop these drugs, why genetics complicate the “just try harder” narrative, and how brain chemistry shapes appetite, compulsion, and energy.Then we zoom out to the policy level: the rise of food deserts, cheap ultra-processed calories, and the paradox of publicly funding both the problem and the fix. We explore practical steps that work in the real world—SKU-controlled health savings accounts, everyday movement campaigns, healthier default options in public spaces, and community gardens and sidewalks that make active living normal again. The throughline is simple and human: use the science to help people now, and rebuild the environment so fewer need the medicine later.If you care about diabetes, obesity, prevention, or the economics shaping our plates and prescriptions, this conversation offers clarity and a path forward.

Over the past several years, the rise of GLP-1 drugs such as Ozempic and Wegovy has changed the conversation around weight and obesity in the U.S. Rachel Goldman, PhD, talks about how GLP-1s work; the effects they can have on mental health; what questions to ask if you're considering trying these medications; how weight loss can shift people's relationships with their family, friends and partners; and why there's still stigma around the use of GLP-1s and how patients can navigate that.

In this episode, Matt and Chris return to the studio to tackle the growing obsession with supplements and synthetic nutrients in modern health culture. Using creatine, peptides, and GLP-1 drugs as examples, they question whether our fixation on isolated nutrients is leading us further away from true health. Drawing from decades of nutrition and wellness experience, they argue that the real solution lies in returning to whole, unprocessed foods — “eating food, not nutrients.” The hosts break down how overreliance on synthetic supplements and appetite-suppressing drugs contributes to nutrient deficiencies, muscle loss, gut issues, and declining metabolic health. Through stories, research, and real-world insights from the supplement industry, Matt and Chris make a compelling case for rethinking our relationship with food, simplicity, and balance.

Ep 127: In this episode, I'm joined by Carly Foley for a deep dive into all things GLP-1, from the science behind popular medications to their natural counterparts within the body. We explore the rise of microdosing, the powerful role of the gut microbiome in weight regulation, and what Ayurveda teaches us about root causes of imbalance. We share foods, supplements, and lifestyle shifts that may help support the body's own GLP-1 production, probiotics, and more!  Topics Include:  different types of GLP-1 medications growing trend of microdosing gut microbiome's influence on weight FMT (fecal microbiota transplant)  Ayurveda and what dosha is more prone to sluggish metabolism how GLP-1 is produced in the body foods and nutrients that support natural GLP-1  the role of Akkermansia and other probiotic species  supplements to enhance gut health can a person safely transition off synthetic GLP-1 drugs hydroponic vegetables gardening  and more!

It's fall, the holidays are near, and Eric's feeling ignored. Kiley's read 74 books, Costco's selling GLP-1s, and TV's heating up with Kim K, Southern Charm, and Vanderpump Rules. A podcast you don't want to miss.

Send us a text When doctors recommend weight loss, they describe the supposed benefits but remain silent about the harms—reduced metabolism, increased appetite, hormonal disruption, eating disorders, and profound mental health impacts. This ethical failure extends beyond outdated diet advice to newer interventions like GLP-1 medications, where we celebrate short-term metabolic improvements while ignoring gastrointestinal distress, financial burden, social isolation, and unknown long-term consequences. In this episode, Asher challenges the dangerous assumption that fat people should suffer to become thinner, exposing how this narrative serves the weight loss industry's profits while treating fat bodies as unworthy of basic ethical consideration in healthcare. Got a question for the next podcast?

Many people in our community say it has become virtually impossible to shift the weight since cancer and menopause. So of course we ask ourselves: What role do GLP-1 medicines play in cancer survivorship and what do we really know about their safety, risks, and benefits? In this episode, I'm joined by Caroline Tweedie, currently working as the lead cancer nurse in the North East of England. With over 17 years' experience as a Clinical Nurse Breast Specialist, Caroline has dedicated her career to improving the lives of those affected by breast cancer and sits on the NICE committee shaping national breast cancer guidance.We explore, with curiosity - and never with judgement:- What GLP-1 medicines are and why they are so effective- Safety concerns and what the evidence shows for cancer survivors- Why these drugs matter in breast cancer survivorship- The role of GLP-1s in weight, muscle, bone health, inflammation, and fatigue- Natural strategies that may work on similar pathways- Key risks to be aware of: hair loss, sarcopenia, drug absorption, and endocrine therapy interactions- What happens when you stop taking the drug- Practical advice for patients and clinicians navigating this new landscapeCaroline also shares her insights on why weight loss isn't the same as fitness, why muscle is the “anti-fatigue organ,” and what both patients and healthcare professionals need to know before considering GLP-1 use in survivorship care.This is a nuanced, evidence-based discussion that puts patients at the centre. Whether you're a survivor curious about GLP-1s or a healthcare professional supporting patients, this episode offers clarity, compassion, and practical takeaways.Episode Highlights:00:00 Intro12:09 Survivorship Challenges Beyond Cancer Treatment15:35 Weight Loss Treatments: Risks & Support16:42 Bariatric Surgery vs Rapid Weight Loss22:18 Protein Intake for Menopause Health25:04 "Deciding on GLP1 Treatment"29:06 GLP-1 Eligibility Criteria Explained35:40 "Drug Trials and Patient Safety"42:19 Obesity Support After Cancer43:31 Diabetes Drugs, Costs, Future HopeConnect with us:For more information and resources visit our website: www.menopauseandcancer.org Or follow us on Instagram @menopause_and_cancerJoin our Facebook group: www.facebook.com/groups/menopauseandcancerchathub

Urinary (and yes, bowel) leakage isn't “just part of getting older”—it's a signal from your core and pelvic floor. In this straight-talk episode, physical therapist Christina Walsh, co-founder of Tighten Your Tinkler, joins me to dismantle the shame around pelvic health and lay out a functional path forward that goes far beyond “just do more Kegels.” We cover what's really driving leaks, pressure, prolapse, urgency, and painful sex in midlife; how breath, posture, fascia, and daily toileting habits influence symptoms; when conservative care is enough—and when devices, pessaries, or surgery may be appropriate. Christina also shares practical first steps you can start today (hello, decompression and diaphragmatic breathing), plus how to talk with your partner without pushing through pain.What you'll learnWhy leaking is common—but not normal—and what it's trying to tell youThe limits of isolated Kegels and what a functional approach looks likeHow breathing, posture, sitting, and constipation ramp up pelvic pressureStaging prolapse (1–4), what's realistic to “functionally heal,” and red-flagsPainful sex in midlife: estrogen, lubrication, tone, and boundaries that helpFascia's surprising role (yes, your bladder “talks” to your neck)Links & resourceshttps://www.tightenyourtinkler.com/  (listener code Michele for $50 off)https://www.instagram.com/tighten.your.tinkler/ Tighten Your Tinkler free quiz https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/tinklerquizIf this helped, share it with a friend, rate the show, and hop on my weekly newsletter for midlife health, fitness, and no-BS motivation._________________________________________1:1 health and nutrition coaching or Faster Way - Reach me anytime at mailto:mfolanfasterway@gmail.com If you're doing “all the right things” and still feel stuck, it may be time to look deeper.

With ObesityWeek yielding eye-catching amylin data and a bidding war that ran to $10 billion for Metsera, weight loss companies were center stage in biotech last week. On the latest edition of the BioCentury This Week podcast, BioCentury's analysts explained why Pfizer's victory for the start-up over European rival Novo Nordisk doesn't necessarily mean a broader U.S. policy shift against foreign acquisitions of domestic biotechs.Turning to ObesityWeek readouts, they discuss Eli Lilly's data for amylin monotherapy eloralintide, arguing that just as Lilly did with GLP-1 agonists, the company is again setting the benchmark by which all other molecules in the class will be measured.BioCentury's analysts also discuss takeaways from Washington Editor Steve Usdin's Commentary, which finds FDA in a crisis of politicized decisions, plummeting morale, and a hollowed workforce, and highlights from BioCentury's interview with gene therapy pioneer Jim Wilson as he rethinks the funding model for ultrarare disease therapies to keep his mission on track.

Abby explains why a sufficiency-based approach to women's health research matters, and why “the science is settled” is the wrong way to think about female physiology. We dig into metabolic changes in midlife, low energy availability, and why so many women are unintentionally under-fuelling while feeling “weight-loss resistant.” Abby shares her latest work on nutrient timing, fed vs fasted training, pre-exercise protein, and how progressive resistance training (with and without creatine) can rapidly improve muscle, fat mass, bone and confidence in midlife women.

From the rise of regenerative medicine and peptide therapy to the evolving “multimodality” approach that combines injectables, lasers, and biostimulatory treatments, Dr. Davis and Taylor explore how today's most natural, long-lasting results come from blending science, sequencing, and patient health. They also dive into: How peptides and GLP-1 medications are changing the conversation around functional health and cosmetic outcomes The best timing and sequencing for injectables, radiofrequency, and laser treatments Why collagen regeneration starts with nutrition, protein, and overall wellness The importance of “low and slow” when using GLP-1s like Ozempic and Wegovy How at-home skin care and consistency enhance in-office treatments The takeaway? There's no single magic bullet in modern aesthetics — real transformation comes from a balanced, regenerative approach that treats the whole patient, inside and out. Listen to The Plastic Surgery Revolution wherever you get your podcasts and stay ahead of what's next in beauty, health, and science.

In this in-depth conversation, Dr. Brad Stanfield sits down with Dr Matt Kaeberlein to discuss his journey from a primary care physician in New Zealand to a leading voice in the evidence-based longevity space. We cover the launch and philosophy behind his YouTube channel, the challenges and exciting results of his self-funded rapamycin clinical trial, and his critical perspective on supplements, medical guidelines, and the future of aging research.Dr. Stanfield provides a unique clinician's viewpoint on hot topics like GLP-1 agonists (Ozempic), SGLT2 inhibitors, vitamin D testing, and the pitfalls of biological age clocks. We also dive into a spirited debate on the role of medical societies, the balance between risk and benefit in prescribing medications, and why he believes the field of longevity is still in its early stages of discovery.Key Topics & Timestamps:00:00 - Introduction00:52 - Brad's Background02:47 - Starting the YouTube Channel & Philosophy on Science Communication07:39 - The Rigor of Clinical Data vs. Misinformation10:14 - Admitting Mistakes in Public (Resveratrol, Metformin)14:40 - Funding and Designing the Rapamycin Clinical Trial19:25 - Rapamycin Trial Results Submitted & Plans for a PhD23:28 - Preventative Care: New Zealand vs. US Healthcare Systems27:59 - The Vitamin D Debate: To Test or Not to Test?35:18 - Trust in Medical Guidelines & The Hormone Replacement Therapy Controversy43:42 - The Problem with Biological Age Clocks46:22 - Patient-Centered Care: Inform vs. Decide in Medicine49:49 - How to Judge the Quality of a Clinical Trial (CONSORT)53:44 - Risk vs. Benefit: When Should We Prescribe Preventative Drugs?58:05 - GLP-1 Agonists (Ozempic) and SGLT2 Inhibitors in Practice01:02:00 - Brad's Personal Use of an SGLT2 Inhibitor01:05:38 - The State of Longevity Research: How Much Do We Really Know?01:08:34 - Closing RemarksDISCLAIMER: The information provided on the Optispan podcast is intended solely for general educational purposes and is not meant to be, nor should it be construed as, personalized medical advice.

Send us a textImportance of Sleep Inactive Sleep Mask https://inactiveco.com/What if the simplest tool in your bedroom could unlock better recovery, steadier mood, and sharper performance? We sit down with Jill McCray—co-founder of the Inactive Company and former executive at Spanx, Starbucks, and Delta—to unpack how a century-old sleep accessory became a serious performance tool for athletes, veterans, parents, and frequent flyers. Jill traces the journey from “I'll sleep when I'm dead” to building a patented sleep mask that delivers complete darkness, active cooling with phase change material, and hardware‑free comfort that fits any head and even lets you open your eyes under the mask—an insight that dramatically increased adoption in PTSD cohorts.We explore why sleep has jumped to the top of the wellness pyramid (hello, American Heart Association's Essential 8), and how elite programs validated the design. From NFLPA reorders and college football travel kits to third‑party studies showing 15–30 minutes more sleep per night, the data points add up. Jill breaks down the four pillars of better sleep—darkness for melatonin signaling, thermoregulation for fewer 3 a.m. wakeups, deeper REM and slow‑wave quality, and comfort that drives real-world compliance. We also dig into their CBT‑I inspired Sleep Seven playbook, a personalizable routine that turns the mask into a reliable cue—your nightly “sleep warm‑up” that helps your body power down and stay there.If you've tried apps, supplements, and gadgets with little payoff, this conversation offers a refreshing, evidence-aware approach to sleep optimization. You'll learn how textile science borrowed from aerospace quietly stabilizes temperature, why design details matter for anxious or trauma-affected sleepers, and where performance sleepwear is headed next with infrared-friendly, cooling fabrics. Ready to treat sleep like a trainable skill and not a lottery? Tune in, try the playbook at inactiveco.com, and tell us your biggest sleep blocker.

If you've had bariatric surgery, you already know what it means to commit fully to your health.  But even with your best efforts, bodies adapt, hormones shift, and life adds its own complications. When weight begins to creep back, many people turn to GLP-1 medications for support, and that raises a crucial question: How well do GLP-1s actually work after bariatric surgery?I recently heard from a listener living this exact experience — someone who lost more than 200 pounds after gastric bypass and has now started Zepbound to address weight regain. Her story opens the door to an important conversation about why GLP-1 medications can behave differently in a post-bariatric body, why results may not mirror those of someone without surgical history, and how to redefine success when you've already achieved a significant transformation.ReferencesThe Obesity Guide: Behind the Curtain (Season 1)The Obesity Guide: Behind the Curtain (Season 2) - Includes access to the December 21-Day Challenge with daily coaching, actionable steps, and community support to end your year with momentum.Audio Stamps00:40 - Dr. Rentea shares a heartwarming reunion at the VA, reconnecting with former colleagues and reflecting on how far she's come in her weight loss journey.07:10 - Fan mail question: Does Zepbound (tirzepatide) work the same after gastric bypass surgery, and what weight loss results should you expect?09:11 - Why post-bariatric patients often respond better to GLP-1 medications and become "hyper responders" at lower doses.16:18 - Redefining success: why focusing on your relationship with food and sustainability matters more than hitting a specific weight loss percentage.17:48 - Common post-surgery pitfalls including grazing patterns, excessive step counting, and neglecting body composition tracking.20:42 - Information on the December 21-Day Challenge and upcoming 30/30 program rounds.All of the information on this podcast is for general informational purposes only.

This week on Fat Science, Dr. Emily Cooper, Mark Wright, and Andrea Taylor take a trip to the past when Dr. Cooper didn't have many supporters in medicine. She shares what it was like to be ridiculed by her peers, why she refused to give up on her patients, and how her science-based approach to metabolism was finally validated by mainstream medicine.Hear the raw, unfiltered story of resilience, patient advocacy, and scientific discovery that led Dr. Cooper from being dismissed as “voodoo” to blazing a trail for real metabolic health.Key Questions Answered:Why did so many in the medical community reject Dr. Cooper's methods—like challenging “calories in, calories out”—when she started treating metabolic issues?What does the rise of GLP-1 medications reveal about the true science behind appetite, metabolism, and weight?How did Dr. Cooper hold onto her integrity and keep practicing effective, patient-centered medicine despite overwhelming opposition?When does medical “common sense” get replaced by real science, and what does that mean for anyone struggling with diets that fail?Key Takeaways:Progress means facing skepticism. Dr. Cooper was once called a "voodoo doctor" and even yelled at by other physicians for her scientific methods, but results spoke louder than her critics. Metabolism is personal and complex—restrictive diets and “eat less, move more” advice often backfire. Hormonal science and careful patient tracking revealed why old rules failed. Persistent curiosity and data-driven practice, not popularity, eventually shift the culture. Dr. Cooper leaned on a “matrix” of metabolic markers long before these tests were commonplace. GLP-1 medications (like Byetta and Victoza) have moved from obscure tools to mainstream, validating Dr. Cooper's approach to treating the whole metabolic system. True healing means fueling, not restricting. “Eating more,” not less, was key to metabolic recovery for many patients—a radical, often ridiculed idea that's now supported by science and real-world clinical data from thousands of patients.Patient stories mirror the medical journey—today, both patients and providers can look back and realize that “voodoo” was simply science ahead of its time. Dr. Cooper's Actionable Tips:Question easy answers—when in doubt, follow the data, not tradition.Find a provider who listens, tests, and adapts treatment to you—not just your weight or a number on a scale.Remember that real science can be lonely before it's mainstream. Trust progress, even when it feels slow.Celebrate freedom from food guilt; focus on nourishment, steady energy, and self-compassion, not dieting extremes.Notable Quote:“It does make you feel lonely because you feel like there's no one to talk to, but it was always about doing right by the science and by my patients.” — Dr. Emily CooperFat Science is your source for breaking diet myths and advancing the science of true metabolic health. No diets, no agendas—just science that makes you feel better.
