Podcasts about Glycogen

Welcome to The Peptide Podcast. Today we're going to talk about something that almost everyone on a GLP-1 journey hits eventually, the weight loss plateau. Thank you for listening to The Peptide Podcast. If you enjoyed the show and want to support what we do, head over to our Partners Page. You'll find some amazing brands we trust—and by checking them out, you're helping us keep the podcast going.  It starts like this: you begin a GLP-1 like semaglutide or tirzepatide, and for the first few weeks or months, the weight seems to fall off. You're eating less, not obsessing over food, and for the first time in a long time, it feels… easy. Then one day, the scale just stops moving. You're not doing anything different. You're still taking the meds. Still trying to eat well. Maybe you're walking more or lifting weights. But suddenly, nothing's happening—and the frustration kicks in. Sound familiar? Let's talk about what's really going on. 1. What Causes the Plateau? First of all, if you're in this place right now: you didn't mess up. GLP-1s are incredibly effective at reducing appetite and creating an initial calorie deficit, which is why people lose weight so quickly in the beginning. But your body isn't just going to let that continue unchecked. It adapts. This is called adaptive thermogenesis—a fancy way of saying your body becomes more efficient. You start burning fewer calories at rest than you did before. Your resting metabolic rate actually drops beyond what you'd expect just from losing weight alone. It's a survival mechanism. So what worked at the beginning—eating less and moving a bit more—might no longer be enough to keep the scale moving. This is totally normal.  2. Metabolism & Muscle: Why Strength Training Matters Now More Than Ever So now that we know why the plateau happens, let's talk about things we can do to help us get over it. Something that often gets overlooked but is absolutely critical—especially if you're on a GLP-1 or in any kind of calorie deficit. Resistance training is not optional. It's non-negotiable. Here's why. When you're losing weight—whether it's from a medication like semaglutide or just eating in a calorie deficit—your body isn't just pulling energy from fat. If you're not careful, it's also going to break down lean muscle tissue. And the more muscle you lose, the slower your metabolism gets. Why? Because muscle is metabolically active tissue. It burns calories even when you're doing absolutely nothing. So if you're not actively sending a signal to your body to keep that muscle, it'll start to let it go. That's where resistance training comes in. When you lift weights or do bodyweight exercises—think squats, push-ups, resistance bands, even heavy housework—you're telling your body: “Hey, I need this muscle. Don't burn it for fuel.” This is especially important for those on GLP-1s because these meds reduce appetite so significantly that you might not be eating enough protein—or enough calories in general—to maintain muscle without that extra stimulus. So if you've hit a plateau or want to prevent one, ask yourself: Am I strength training at least two to three times a week? Am I prioritizing movements that challenge large muscle groups—like legs, glutes, chest, and back? Am I fueling my workouts with enough protein? And let me be really clear, you don't have to become a gym rat. You don't have to lift crazy heavy weights. But you do have to move your muscles in a meaningful, consistent way. Protecting your lean mass is one of the best ways to keep your metabolism humming—not just during your weight loss journey, but after it too. Because this isn't about just losing weight—it's about building a strong, metabolically healthy body that can maintain that weight loss for life. 3. Mindset Check: The Plateau Is Not a Failure Now, let's get into the mental side of this journey—because it's just as important as nutrition, movement, and medication. One of the biggest challenges people face—especially when progress slows—is the mental roller coaster that comes with watching the scale. And I'll be honest: weighing yourself every single day is not ideal. Here's why. Your body weight naturally fluctuates. Daily. And those fluctuations have nothing to do with your actual fat loss or long-term progress. Instead, the number on the scale is influenced by things like: Hydration status – If you're slightly dehydrated, the scale may dip. But if you drank a ton of water the day before or had more salty food, it may go up due to water retention. Glycogen stores – When you eat carbs, your body stores them in your muscles and liver as glycogen, and for every gram of glycogen, your body stores about 3–4 grams of water. So a pasta dinner or even a healthy grain bowl can cause a temporary increase on the scale. Digestive contents – Let's be real: if you haven't had a bowel movement (constipation) or just ate a bigger meal, the scale might reflect that. Doesn't mean you gained fat. Inflammation or illness – If you're recovering from an illness, injury, or even a hard workout, your body retains extra water as part of the healing process. Again—temporary. But here's what happens when we don't understand this, we step on the scale, see a higher number, and panic. We question everything—“Am I doing something wrong? Is the medication not working? Should I eat less?” And that mindset spiral can lead to unnecessary stress, restriction, or even giving up. So what should you do instead? Focus on trends over time, not daily weigh-ins. Weigh yourself once a week at most, ideally at the same time of day, under the same conditions (like first thing in the morning before food or water). Or better yet—track non-scale victories: clothes fitting better, improved energy, reduced cravings, less inflammation, better digestion, even clearer skin. These are all signs your body is healing and progressing. Remember, your worth is not defined by a number, and fat loss is not always linear. There are ups, downs, pauses, and breakthroughs—and all of them are part of the process. 4. Habits: Recheck Your Routine Now, here's where we get really honest. Because as the months go by, it's normal for habits to loosen up. Maybe you're not tracking portions quite as closely. Maybe your steps have dropped. Maybe “just a bite” here and there has crept in more often than you realize. This doesn't make you bad or lazy—it makes you human. But if progress has stalled, it's worth revisiting the basics: Are you eating mostly whole, minimally processed foods? Are you staying hydrated and watching added sugars? Are you eating out frequently without paying attention to portions? Are you still moving your body every day? Small shifts can make a big difference. 5. Food Noise: Why It's Sneaking Back One of the most exciting things about GLP-1s is how much they reduce food noise—that constant mental chatter about snacks, cravings, and what's in the fridge. But for many people, that quiet doesn't last forever. Over time, especially as your body adapts to the medication or your dose levels off, food noise can return. You might find yourself thinking about food more often or wanting things you weren't craving before. This doesn't mean the med has stopped working. It means your biology is adjusting. What helps: Keeping meals protein-forward and fiber-rich Eating at regular times to avoid dips in energy or blood sugar Identifying emotional vs. physical hunger Managing stress and sleep, which both drive cravings This is the time to build real strategies—so you're not relying on the med alone. 6. Emotional Eating This brings me to my next point. Let's talk about something that often flies under the radar but can make a huge difference in your weight loss journey—emotional eating. This is when feelings like stress, boredom, anxiety, or sadness trigger you to eat, even if you're not physically hungry. It's totally normal, and many people experience this at some point. Now, GLP-1 medications like semaglutide or tirzepatide do a great job at reducing physical hunger by influencing hormones that control appetite. But they don't always fully address the emotional side of eating. So, even if your stomach feels satisfied, those emotional triggers can still push you toward cravings or eating for comfort. Recognizing emotional eating is the first step. Try to notice when you're eating because of feelings rather than hunger. Strategies like mindful eating, journaling your emotions, or finding alternative outlets—like walking, meditation, or chatting with a friend—can really help. If emotional eating is a big hurdle, working with a therapist or counselor who specializes in behavioral health can provide tools to manage those feelings without turning to food. Remember, managing emotional eating alongside your GLP-1 treatment can make a huge difference in overcoming plateaus and reaching your goals more sustainably. 7. Set Realistic Expectations: Fat Loss Isn't Linear Lastly, I want to talk about setting realistic expectations. I can't stress the following enough. You are not supposed to lose weight every single week forever. Your body needs breaks. Your metabolism needs to reset. And your mind needs time to adapt to this new version of you. Think of your fat loss journey like a staircase—not a slide. There are flat spots before the next drop. And guess what? Some of the most important changes—like maintaining your weight, building strength, or stabilizing your habits—happen during those flat spots. You don't need to push harder or go more extreme. You just need to keep showing up consistently. My Final Thoughts: Trust the Process The bottom line is trust the process. If you're on a GLP-1 and the scale has stalled, take a deep breath. This is a normal part of the process. It's not the end—it's just a signal to pivot and refocus. We want to build muscle. Prioritize protein. Revisit your habits. Stay active. And most importantly, don't give up. Thank you for listening to The Peptide Podcast. If you enjoyed the show and want to support what we do, head over to our Partners Page.

Pique We've done quite a few podcast episodes on the performance benefits of caffeine. But, if you're like many runners I know, pre-run coffee often leaves you with jitters or stomach issues. That's why I was so excited when I found Nandaka by Pique—the ultimate coffee alternative designed to power your runs, your training, and your recovery. So, what makes Nandaka different? Most so-called “coffee alternatives” don't actually provide functional energy. But Nandaka is built for endurance  Unlike coffee, which spikes your energy and leaves you crashing mid-run, Nandaka fuels you with steady, sustained endurance—no spikes, no crashes, just clean energy that lasts.  Nandaka provides its caffeine from fermented probiotic teas, which provide a slow-release caffeine that prevents jitters and gives you sustained release for those long runs workouts.  It also contains cordyceps mushrooms, which help boost VO2 max, delivering more oxygen to your muscles for better endurance  Plus, the probiotic teas mean no digestive distress like you often get with coffee.  If you're tired of running on fumes—or worse, running on coffee crashes—it's time to make the switch.  Right now, Pique is offering 20% off for life AND a free Starter Kit with your first purchase.  Go to Piquelife.com/run and start running on real energy today.  Your legs, your lungs, and your PRs will thank you

Glucose is the main source of energy for all forms of life, but it isn't usually stored as individual C6H12O6 molecules. Animals use glycogen to do that job. Glycogen is a large branched polymer of glucose molecules, linked together by α-1,4 and α-1,6 glycosidic bonds. The liver and muscles break down the stored glycogen whenever the body needs an extra boost of glucose. Glycogen storage diseases are genetic defects in glycogen metabolism resulting in accumulation of glycogen. What happens when macromolecules accumulate in cells? Cell damage and dysfunction. Because the liver and muscles are the two main organs that use glycogen, they are also the two most affected by glycogen storage diseases. In the liver, glycogen accumulation leads to hypoglycemia since the glycogen can't be broken down to glucose. Damage to the liver from extra glycogen can also lead to liver failure or even liver cancers. In the muscles, glycogen accumulation causes weakness, exercise intolerance, and potentially heart failure. There are at least 12 distinct glycogen storage diseases, but we'll cover only the 4 most common ones. After listening to this Audio Brick, you should be able to: Identify the most common glycogen storage diseases: von Gierke disease (type 1), Pompe disease (type 2), Cori disease (type 3), and McArdle disease (type 5). Identify the enzymes deficient in each of the most common glycogen storage diseases. Describe the clinical manifestations of each of the most common glycogen storage diseases. Describe management for each of the most common glycogen storage diseases. You can also check out the original brick from our Cellular and Molecular Biology collection, which is available for free.

In this podcast episode, Cher and Carina discuss the realities of marathon training, focusing on weight fluctuation, nutrition, and the importance of strength training for runners. They share personal experiences and insights on how running affects body composition, the role of muscle and glycogen in weight changes, and the necessity of proper nutrition and recovery to support training. The conversation emphasizes the mental and physical challenges runners face, particularly regarding body image and performance, and advocates for strength training as a crucial component of a successful running regimen. In this conversation, Carina and Cher explore the complexities of marathon training, focusing on the importance of strength training, the impact of inflammation and recovery, and the significance of understanding body weight fluctuations during training cycles. They emphasize the need for runners to embrace their body's changes and recognize the diversity in body types that can lead to successful running performance.

Episode #175 In this Fasting Q&A episode, hosted by Coach Lisa Chance, Dr. Jason Fung answers questions from the TFM Community: Is sauerkraut OK for fat fasting or olives only? [03:10] What happens to the body weight set point when we are under stress? [04:11] I recently listened to a podcast from a few years ago where you and Dr. Peter Attia discussed insulin resistance. You said you had evolved your thinking about it and that it was not like a lock and key that didn't fit, but, instead, more like an overflow situation. You described it as a suitcase (the cell) already filled to the point of overflowing with shirts (the glucose), and it just couldn't hold any more, you just couldn't stuff anymore in. You also said that it is hyperinsulinemia that drives metabolic syndrome, not insulin resistance. Is that your current view? [12:13]  Does an enema stimulate insulin? For example, a coffee enema with kefir, whey, or other added probiotics. [16:00]  When we exercise, our bodies will pump out blood glucose to help with the energy needed. For an insulin resistant person doing hard, aerobic exercise (such as HIIT or run/walk), does the raised blood glucose need insulin to process it? [17:31] When a person is doing regular exercise routines, do they need to replenish glycogen stores after a workout or does the body do this on its own? [19:22] I read an article recently about SGLT inhibitors which said they can stimulate autophagy. Is this true? [24:33] Protein requirements are so confusing. If a person has a lot of weight to lose and they have a lot of excess skin (which is protein you want the body to use to minimize all that loose skin when you are done losing weight), how do they know how much protein to eat? Would they need less protein the more weight they had to lose? Does eating less protein force the body to use the loose skin? Does eating too much or too little protein have consequences? [27:40] I have read some things that say 8 ounces of animal products per week is enough and more than that has negative effects (insulin resistance, elevated bad cholesterol, and other things), and so getting more protein from legumes, nuts, and seeds is a good idea. Also, the type of animal products makes a difference; it is not just the processing, but whether it is organic, pasture-raised, regenerative, etc. I think that it can be easy to interpret that, since saturated fat isn't as bad as we thought, we might eat more animal products or not-so-healthy animal products, and, while it might lower insulin and promote weight loss in the short term, there can be other long-term effects that are not so healthy. Can you comment?

Today, we give you a little food for thought on day to day nutrition and race fueling. We sort of explore the traditional triathlon thinking process and ask if you're really doing what's right for your long term health. We get into how to think about what's working and how to recognize what's not. On some levels it's complex, but it can be really simple if you start putting yourself first in the equation. We talk about fitness over nutrition and how to build your body for long distance triathlon. We get into glycogen, fat oxidation, and ask if training your gut is really a logical approach. We look at bonking, periodizing carbs and ask you to think about how you're fueling and if it really makes sense. The modern diet is filled with synthetic ingredients and proving to be a failure. Are we as performance athletes falling into the same trap? Topics: Critically thinking about your nutrition day to day Do you believe something is wonky? Nutrition for triathlon Not just a triathlete, but a human The highest performers are willing to try anything to win The difference between an answer and an option Fueling for training and racing Most things are processed Enormous consumption of carbs and sugars Inflammation is at the root of most problems Glycogen depleted state for pros Fat oxidation rates Train your gut?? Fitness over nutrition Can you really burn all the calories? Are we searching for the wrong answers? Sugar crashes Training your body to crave more junk Bonking  - just as much mental? Working hard all the time Periodizing carbohydrates Fat burning machines How to be much better on race day Heart palpitations Telling your body how to work Can you explain why you take in the calories you do? $8 a Gell to become more inefficient Popping pills Worshiping at the alter of your nutrition brand   Mike Tarrolly - mike@c26triathlon.com Robbie Bruce - robbie@c26triathlon.com

The Fast and the Furious!! Dave and the Doc set out on a two-day fast together!! Will it go as planned? Of course not, but not in the way you might think!

Do muscles have a maximum amount of glycogen stores and is there a “time limit” (prior to exercise) they store them for? Why is one muscle weaker than the other? As in left bicep can do 8 reps RPE 8, but right ends up 8 reps RPE 9.5? Will there ever be a time when they're equal enough to trust a long bar curl vs dumbbells? Or will one side inevitably begin to overcompensate/engage more than the other? Do you have any tips for reducing the caloric content of a restaurant meal? You said that your maintenance calories can be lower after losing weight. Is there any way to keep them where they were prior to weight loss? Any ab exercises you find particularly effective for yourself and/or clients?

David Barreto began to notice is hair thinning at the age of just 20, and by the time he was 22, this had began to be quite noticeable.He tried various treatments, but did not see any markable improvement. This led him to look into genetic hair loss, where he found that there has been a lot of research done that hadn't been put into use in commercial products. He wanted to bridge the gap between science and commercial products. He wanted to create products that used natural solutions, adding compounds found in nature, rather than chemicals or synthetic drugs to treat hair loss, as he found that compliance can be an issue with some medical alternatives, along with the health warnings and side effects putting people off or making them a non- viable option.He then began to create System K11, a science-led company, of which he is co-founder.Looking at  the driving forces behind genetic hair loss, he found studies that showed a correlation to the rate of hair loss and diet, researching into sugary drinks and type 2 diabetes as examples of how a dysregulated metabolism can have an effect on the mitochondrial rate of respiration which limits the amount of energy the hair follicles gain from the glycogen stores around the hair follicles.

Are you scared that carbs will make you fat and avoid them completely? Did you know that a balanced diet rich in carbohydrates is not just good but essential for building strength muscle, and shedding fat?Today, I will be going over all the reasons why, 9 reasons in particular, eating a moderate to high carb diet—or what I like to call a balanced and healthy amount of carbs—is absolutely essential if your goal is to build muscle, get stronger, improve your body composition, get leaner, and yes even make fat loss easier.Let's call this the “I love carbs, and you should too” episode. You'll definitely want to share this with a friend, especially if they're a low-carb or keto zealot who loves to brag about how they haven't looked at, let alone eaten a potato or bowl of oatmeal in a while. They are leaving massive gains on the table, and this is a very fast road not only to skinny fat but to a miserable existence in terms of enjoying your food.If I sound a bit sarcastically aggressive today, it's because I lived the low-carb delusion for an entire decade and paid the price. Now that my bloodstream is flooded with nature's sweet glycogen drug 24/7, I look back and feel sorry for my carb-deprived former self and want nothing more than for YOU to put that person in the rearview mirror, too.__________Click here to apply for coaching!__________Today you'll learn all about:[2:44] Carbs are beneficial to muscle growth[7:34] Energy for high-intensity workouts[8:52] Glycogen replenishment[10:16] Protein sparing and mTOR activation[11:56] Insulin release and hormone balance[15:45] Prevent muscle protein breakdown[18:05] Carbs optimizes testosterone to cortisol ratio[20:02] Reduce muscle soreness post-workout[21:18] Support muscle retention[23:58] Improve overall performance[27:13] OutroEpisode resources:Ep 124: How to Use Progressive Overload the RIGHT way to Build Strength and Muscle (Even in Fat Loss)FREE CHALLENGE STARTS DECEMBER 1, 2023:

After a listener question about training logs, we dive into a controversial topic: diet trends. We are not registered dietitians, so please always defer to a sports RD for individual advice. Here, we take a hard look at what the evidence says on glycogen depletion training, fasting for runners, and low-carb diets.  Discussion points include: Glycogen depletion runs Intermittent fasting and fasted running Keto/high-fat-low-carb How restrictive diets can affect athletic performance Why carbs help your running How many carbs runners should eat Additional Resources: Everything Fat Loss by Ben Carpenter (https://amzn.to/49kNUt8) Athlete's Plate Visual Guide:https://swell.uccs.edu/theathletesplate https://lauranorrisrunning.com/low-carb-training-and-running/ https://lauranorrisrunning.com/should-you-do-fasted-runs/ References: PMID: 28012184 PMID: 34001184 PMID: 30747558 PMID: 36173597 PMID: 34578819 PMID: 29315892 PMID: 22366285 https://journals.lww.com/nsca-scj/pages/articleviewer.aspx?year=2011&issue=02000&article=00003&type=Fulltext

Without glycogen, we couldn't go very far. Dr. Sullivan is a specialist in the glycogen molecule, which stores glucose, our energy source. In this podcast, he describes exciting discoveries and future research centered on glycogen presence that might help explain the connection between diabetes and kidney disease. Listen and hear answers to these questions and more: How does diabetes affect the kidneys? How do glycogen molecules differ in the liver of diabetic patients and why is that important? buy symbicort online buy symbicort over the counter online pharmacy What does glycogen do to the kidney that might lead to diabetic kidney disease stages? Mitchell Sullivan is pursuing a postdoc at the University of Queensland in a group that investigates glycation, diabetes, and how diabetic bodily systems handle extra glucose. Dr. Sullivan in particular follows glycogen formation in the organs. He's just setting out on a new study connecting diabetes and kidney health by focusing on glycogen presence in the kidneys of diabetics. Normally, glycogen is in the liver and muscle tissue, waiting to supply us with different kinds of energy needs. buy fildena online buy fildena over the counter online pharmacy But microscopy shows glycogen in the kidneys of diabetic patients that likely leads to damage and inflammation. The findings may lead to better therapeutics and prevention measures, from a more effective diabetes and kidney disease diet to medical interventions. buy aciphex online buy aciphex over the counter online pharmacy Listeners will have the privilege of hearing straight from Dr. Mitchell the hypothesis for this study that's just begun. He explains with clarity why the structure of this glycogen in diabetic kidneys differs from its normal form and is significantly insoluble in this form. Furthermore, it sticks together in clumps of starch-like granules in the thick ascending limb of the nephron. He's investigating if these cells that aren't accustomated to glycogen become overwhelmed and the glycogen gets stuck, leading to damage and inflammation that make for one of the common kidney failure causes. What's most interesting is that his PhD work on glycogen in the liver and muscle tissue of diabetics makes this hypothesis seem more likely. Listen in to hear why that's the case and more about this study that might bring scientists that much closer to improving diabetes and kidney health. To find out more about Dr. Mitchell's work, search his name in research aggregates, see his information page with Queensland University, and feel free to email him: mitchell.sullivan@mater.uq.edu.au.

With the rise in diet fads such as fasting and ketogenic diets, it is crucial to understand the role that glucose plays in our bodies and how nourishing our cells at a metabolic level is the key to moving away from stress and burnout.Balancing your blood sugar appropriately on a cellular level is different from how social media trends tell you to manage your blood sugar. They almost want you to think of blood sugar and insulin as bad. But there are no bad hormones! Insulin is responsible for helping our cells use glucose for metabolic function - which is necessary for survival.Listen in today to hear more about the key to managing your low blood sugar and how it can help you manage your stress, step away from burnout, and get back to a place of healing!In this episode:[00:41] Welcome back to the Fully Nourished Podcast! [05:16] We are diving into blood sugar in this episode and how managing your blood sugar can help you manage your stress.[10:26] While low blood sugar is a large component to stress, it's not the only factor.[15:15] The physiology behind balancing your blood sugar and the actions that take place in your liver.[21:32] Glycogen storage in your muscles is not used for blood sugar metabolism.[22:37] The impact of fasting and exercise on glycogen stores. [24:51] Our Central Nervous System uses more glucose than any other system in our bodies, and the impact of low blood sugar on the brain.[28:18] This is what happens in your body when it has to make its own glucose in response to low blood sugar and why it's metabolically destructive.[35:13] How the keto diet actually impacts your physiology. [36:49] Insulin and glucose in your cells.[38:26] Our state of being impacts our utilization of food.[39:59] These are the factors that impact our carbohydrate tolerance. [41:23] Healing must occur both physically and spiritually because our structure and energy are intertwined.[44:42] Thanks for listening today!

In this episode, I sit down with recurring guest and lead nutrition success coach at Rise Up Nutrition Jenna Stranzl. This is a continuation of Episode 140: My Newborn's Medical Condition + Life Updates, where I shared about my baby son, Levi, and his life threatening medical condition, Glycogen Storage Disease (GSD). Jenna and I discuss the condition more, the different types of GSD, genetic causes and prevalence. Fortunately, this is an incredibly rare genetic disorder, and while it is currently incurable, research into gene therapy holds promise. We dive into the science of glucose metabolism and blood sugar, explaining Levi's inability to use his body's fuel stores. I share about GSD's life-threatening consequences and how we manage Levi's condition daily with tube feeding, special formulas, and constant blood sugar control.  GSD can be managed with medical nutrition therapy, highlighting the importance of individualized nutrition tailored to a person's unique needs, regardless of their health status. I speak to the challenges and fears of raising kids with medical conditions and allergies, reminding listeners that life is always full of different risks and responsibilities. Jenna and I emphasize our gratitude for healthy functioning bodies and the ability to eat a diverse and unrestricted diet. We talk about food eliminations and diet culture, health anxiety, continuous glucose monitors (CGMs),  the consequences of misinterpreting health data, and more. If you are caught in a pattern of restriction or struggling with food fears, reach out because Rise Up Nutrition is here to help!  Listen to my earlier episode on Levi and GSD here: 140: My Newborn's Medical Condition + Life Updates I mention the wonderful support I've received from the Glycogen Storage Disease Facebook community; please share this group with anyone who might need help too! https://www.facebook.com/groups/36159145432/  If you find value in this podcast and would like to support the show, join our patreon community!

In this podcast, Dr. Berg talks about the relationship between the glycogen stores and electrolytes when doing ketogenic diet and intermittent fasting.

In this podcast, Dr. Berg talks about glycogen. Glycogen is the storage of sugar or glucose, glucose molecules strung connected together collectively. When you consume carbs, the body increases insulin and then starts storing glycogen. Then at a certain point, anything extra starts to be converted into fat. Glycogen can store only about 1700 calories. ADD YOUR SUCCESS STORY: https://bit.ly/3zZgZKm

Welcome! and Thank you for listening.  Have you ever heard the saying, I'm not loosing weight but I am building muscle?  How much does a pound of muscle weight?  The same as a pound of feathers.  If your are working hard enough to build significant muscle, you will be burning energy and digging into your fat stores.  Glycogen is stored primarily in muscle and is accompanied by water.  The only true way to measure muscle content with a Dexa scan.  However, it is not covered by most insurances and exposes one to radiation.  A bioelectrical impedance scale is not a bad weight to estimate muscle.  There are errors if someone retains water secondary to kidney or heart disease but can be used to see changes in body composition.  This episode will look at a study comparing various body measurements with longevity.  Spoiler alert; I hope you are carrying lots of muscle.   Other topics: Vitamin D and Zinc.  How much and what levels are good?

Today, I am blessed to have for a THIRD time, Dr. Don Clum. He graduated from Life University in Marietta, GA in 1997 with a degree in Human Nutrition. He then moved to Life Chiropractic College West in California, where he graduated with his Doctorate of Chiropractic in 2000. This originally aired in July 2021. After graduation, Dr. Clum moved to San Jose, Costa Rica where he was invited to work with the Costa Rican Olympic Committee and Athletes. Dr. Clum participated in the National, Central American and Caribbean and Central American Games as the team chiropractor and as the official chiropractor for two professional soccer teams. As a frequent guest on National Television and Radio, Dr. Clum was influential in bringing the gift of holistic health care to the people of Central America and worked with the government programs, instituting W.H.O. procedures and working directly with the indigenous populations of Costa Rica. He was sought after as a speaker and has presented to various professional sports teams, universities, medical groups, medical and chiropractic schools, businesses and government agencies. Dr. Clum was instrumental in forming the first Colegio or “Board” and enacting the first legislation recognizing chiropractic as a licensed and legal healing profession in Costa Rica. In this episode, Dr. Clum opens the show by revealing why the 'calories in, calories out' method of eating is bogus. Plus, he tells us how glycogen works and the reason that too many people oversimplify it. Dr. Clum explains why people who burn more calories are happier, and he gives an overview of the blood markers you should use to measure insulin health. Tune in as we chat about the problem with snacking, how to know if you're fasting too much, and we dig deep into adrenals, insulin, and cortisol.

Humans are dynamic open systems. First of all, the accuracy for calories is fundamentally off. There's automatically up to a 25% error rate for calories. Plus, our body will process calories differently depending on what they are. Sugars will be released into your body differently depending on your gut bacteria. [07:30] The Glycogen Concept Is Flawed – We Oversimplify It We never tap out our glycogen. You don't have to reduce glycogen by a significant amount if you're metabolically flexible. The glycogen in our liver is there for our body. Glycogen appears to be pretty steady no matter what you do. You don't have to deplete all your glycogen to go into fat burning. [17:30] People Who Burn More Calories Are Happier People who burn more calories are happier because of different hormonal states. Your body will interpret nutrients in your gut. Food is not fuel – it's information. Your body doesn't handle processed food very well, even protein powders. [24:10] Blood Markers You Can Use To Monitor Insulin Health You can do serum insulin, which is fasting insulin. You want that number as low as possible. This number should be around 2 or 3. When you eat, that number can blow up to seven times. If you start at 20, then you'll go up to 140. If you keep doing that each day, then you have a problem. Most Americans eat in a fifteen-hour window – they are eating from the time they wake up to the time they go to bed. [26:05] Why Snacking Could Be Damaging Your Health Snacking causes a lot of issues. People are snacking between 19 and 23 times a day. If you are constantly digesting, then you aren't recycling. When your body is resting, then it is in autophagy. So, your cells will start to work better. Autophagy allows new cells to come in and replace cells that have died. [31:40] Signs You Could Be Fasting Too Often Clum teaches progressive fasting rotations. Growth will start to kick in after a fast. You could lose 97% of your new cells if you don't end a fast in the right way. It is rare that you lose lean body muscle from fasting. You have to have a body fat percentage of 5% or less to tap into muscle during a fast. [34:10] Does It Matter What Foods You Break A Fast With? What breaks the fast depends on why you're doing the fast. The food you eat will matter up to two weeks after you fast. Eat foods that are insulin friendly. Plus, exercise is a key component of repairing your cells. [50:45] Quitting Junk Food Causes Withdrawals Like Drug Addiction When an addict stops drinking, they will be lightheaded, irritable, feel terrible, shake, and sweat. When some people skip a meal, they feel the exact same way. Food fuels the addiction pathway. In fact, food is more addictive than drugs. Food hits dopamine and serotonin. Every time insulin gets shot out, so does serotonin. [55:30] Dr. Clum Does Not Encourage C-Peptide Level Testing If triglycerides are over 100, there's an insulin issue. Over 150 is a metabolic syndrome marker. Insulin resistance is inversely related to vitamin D. If your vitamin D is low, you have insulin resistance. Insulin will hold down vitamin D. [60:10] The Relationship Between Adrenals, Insulin, and Cortisol We beat up the adrenals a lot as the culprit for fatigue and adrenal fatigue. However, only a third of the cortisol is actually made in the adrenal. The brain makes a third of the cortisol because it is highly sensitive to inflammation. It makes cortisol to keep inflammation levels as low as possible. When you burn fat, it's an inflammatory process. We will recycle about 1.3% of our cells a day. What matters is how efficient you are in the process. [73:45] An Overweight Diabetic Only Has To Lose One Gram For an overweight type two data to become a normal person, how much weight do they have to lose? People think it's 10% of their body weight. However, the answer is one gram. The gram has to come out of the pancreas. If a 350 lb. person loses one gram from the pancreas, they will no longer be a diabetic. AND MUCH MORE!

Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend! I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks…   Erin: Right sided issues only: so after my second child I started having weird symptoms/issues and all are right side only. Like the arch of my right foot, super tight right hip flexor, right shoulder rain and even my sinuses feel worse on the right side. Why is it ALL on the right side only?! I am working with an intergrative practitioner but just wanted your opinion. I have done an HTMA so far and did have some low minerals. Thanks so much!   Anonymous: Hi Dr. Cabral. Quick question about tobacco/nicotine use and it's relation to depression. I have been using tobacco pouches for 10 years now. Every time I try to quit I find myself in deep depression. My first attempt at quitting resulted in a prescription for SSRI (Prozac 10mg) which I remain on to this day. What are the effects of tobacco and nicotine on the brain and is it possible to quit after this many years? Are there any supplements that would help in this process? Thank you so much for all you do.   Lindsay: Hi Dr Cabral. I have read many opinions that deli meat (processed meat) is bad for you. But, I love sliced turkey. Is it still bad if it's hormone free, nitrate free, and antibiotic free? What are the reasons it is still unhealthy ?   Anonymous: Hi Doc, I'm so grateful for you and your teams work. You are my biggest inspiration and a person I look up to! My question of the day: My local store has a super convenient solution for lemon juice. The product is organic pressed lemon juice. It's stored in a small dark green bottle. Ingredients are 100% organic lemon juice. What's your opinion about a product like this? Have a good day!    Richard: Hello Dr. Cabral, Thank you for all that you do, I am very grateful that you take the time to answer all of our questions. For as long as I can remember I have only been able to breath through one nostril at a time. Most of the air comes in and out through the dominant nostril, while only very little goes through the other one. For the longest time I thought I had a deviated septum or some other issue. I did some research on this and found out about something called the nasal cycle. Apparently its a normal process that was discovered by Dr. Richard Kayser in 1895. It seems like about 70-80% of adults experience a regular nasal cycle in which one will do 75% of the breathing from the dominant nostril and 25% from the other one. The dominant nostril switches about every 90 minutes via tissue that is in the upper part of the nostril which swells up or shrinks. There are lots of reasons stated for why this natural phenomena occurs but in order to keep this shorter I won't list all the reasons. I've asked lots of people about this and its pretty much a split on whether they experience this or not. I would love to hear your opinion and thoughts on all this. Thank you very much for your time!   Hunter: Hi Dr. Cabral, I would first like to say thank you for all you do and your vast and ever-growing knowledge in the health world. I first found you on Ben Pakulski's podcast in 2018 and it changed my life. I recently graduated the Level 1 IHP course and owe you endless gratitude for giving people like myself a chance to learn more about health, forge a new career path and importantly, spread the message of health to my family and many others. You are an inspiration and my mentor sir. I'm a 43 year old male that works out 4 to 5 days a week, I get in my 10,000 steps, a smoothie in the morning, a salad at lunch and sardines/salmon and broccoli for my post workout meal. Job hours are 6am-4pm and I workout 4:30pm to about 5pm. My question is; What should I do as far as restoring my glycogen stores? I have been trying to stay away from rice due to the arsenic that's in it. Should I stick with sweet potatoes instead? I get to bed no later than 8:30pm and I'm done eating my postworkout meal no later than 6:15pm. Should I do solid foods earlier in the day and just have another smoothie postworkout and some sweet potatoes for carbs since it's pre-digested already? Again, thank you dearly for how much you've helped me!! P.s. You/Pakulski should do another podcast to talk new health data!   Thank you for tuning into this weekend's Cabral HouseCalls and be sure to check back tomorrow for our Mindset & Motivation Monday show to get your week started off right!   - - - Show Notes and Resources: StephenCabral.com/2396 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?
