Podcasts about health optimisation summit

In this episode, Angela sits down with Ulrich Dempfle, co-founder and CEO of CAROL Bike, to uncover the science and innovation behind one of the most time-efficient ways to boost VO₂ max, metabolic health, and brain function. Ulrich explains why VO₂ max is the most important marker for longevity, how it declines without training, and how short, AI-guided REHIT sprints boost mitochondria, BDNF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor), and cardiovascular fitness in just minutes. He also breaks down how Reduced-Exertion High-Intensity Interval Training (REHIT) works, why traditional zone 2 training doesn't work for everyone, and how gamification and real-time performance data make staying consistent easier than ever. What You'll Learn: Why VO₂ max is the strongest predictor of health and longevity How REHIT delivers major fitness gains in just minutes Why zone 2 training doesn't work for everyone How short, AI-guided sprints boost mitochondria and brain function Metabolic and cognitive benefits of REHIT How CAROL Bike personalises training to maximise VO₂ max TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Intro & The Importance of VO₂ Max 01:00 How VO₂ Max Declines and Why It Matters 04:22 Zone 2 Training Myths & Non-Responders 09:09 Mitochondria 101: Density vs. Efficiency 12:00 The Science Behind REHIT & CAROL Bike 19:09 Gamification, Dopamine & Workout Adherence 22:02 Lactate, BDNF & Brain Health Benefits 26:04 Insulin Sensitivity & Metabolic Effects 30:17 Efficient Weekly Training Structure 34:51 Afterburn Effect & Fat Oxidation Misconceptions 45:00 VO₂ Max Testing & Fitness Score Tracking 52:00 Peer-Reviewed Research & AI Personalisation 57:30 Real-World VO₂ Max Improvements 1:01:00 How to Get Started & Special Listener Offer VALUABLE RESOURCES ⁠Join The High Performance Health Community⁠ ⁠Click here⁠ for discounts on all the products I personally use and recommend A BIG thank you to our sponsors who make the show possible: Exclusive discount for podcast listeners on Carol Bike - the bike that gets you fittest the fastest - click here WWW.CAROLBIKE.COM and use code ANGELA Hormone Harmony - go to LVLUPHEALTH.COM/ANGELA and use the code ANGELA at checkout for an exclusive 15% off ABOUT THE GUEST Ulrich Dempfle is the CEO and co-founder of CAROL Bike, the world's first Reduced Exertion HIIT (REHIT) exercise bike.

Dr. William Li, a world-renowned physician and scientist, discusses the power of food as medicine and its profound influence on health, including its ability to repair DNA, starve cancer cells, and boost the body's five natural defense systems. Drawing on his extensive research, he reveals how everyday dietary choices can activate healing mechanisms like angiogenesis, regeneration, and immunity, providing actionable insights to optimise metabolism, fight disease, and support longevity KEY TAKEAWAYS: Food acts as medicine by activating the body's five health defense systems: angiogenesis (blood vessel health), regeneration (stem cells), the microbiome, DNA protection, and immunity. The focus should be on adding health-boosting foods you enjoy, such as broccoli sprouts, blueberries, kiwi, and tree nuts, rather than restrictive dieting, as nutritional diversity is key to supporting these defense systems. Simple, consistent dietary changes can rewire your metabolism and help the body regulate sugar, manage inflammation, and burn fat, often reducing reliance on medication. Certain plant-based foods contain bioactives like lycopene (in tomatoes) and polyphenols (in tea and berries) that are critical for supporting the gut microbiome TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: 02:06 What people get wrong about fat loss 04:28 How food can activate the body's healing defense systems. 07:48 Dr. Li's research-based meal plan 10:16 Discussion of foods that lower inflammation VALUABLE RESOURCES ⁠Join The High Performance Health Community⁠ ⁠Click here⁠ for discounts on all the products I personally use and recommend A BIG thank you to our sponsors who make the show possible: Full episode link https://lnk.to/EP508  ABOUT THE HOST Angela Foster is an award winning Nutritionist, Health & Performance Coach, Speaker and Host of the High Performance Health podcast.

You've probably heard that creatine is just for men who want to bulk up, but that's one of the biggest myths in fitness. The truth? Creatine is one of the most well-researched and effective supplements out there, not just for your muscles, but also for your brain, bones, and mood. And it's especially powerful for women over 35, when hormonal changes start to affect our energy, recovery, and resilience. In this episode, I'm breaking down five science-backed reasons why creatine is a total game changer for women in their 30s, 40s, 50s and beyond. I'll share what the research shows, how to use it safely, and why it can help you feel stronger, sharper, and more balanced, both in and out of the gym. This is a topic that's close to my heart. My own experience with perimenopause taught me just how much our energy, strength, and mood can shift, and how powerful it is when we learn to support our biology instead of fighting against it. KEY TAKEAWAYS Why creatine isn't just for “gym bros” How perimenopause affects your energy, focus, and metabolism The science behind ATP, your body's “cellular battery”, and how creatine recharges it Five key ways creatine supports women over 35: energy booster, muscle protector, brain booster, bone guardian, mood stabilizer. TIMESTAMP 00:00 Debunking creatine myths for women over 35 01:07 Understanding perimenopause and energy changes 02:12 The science behind creatine's benefits 03:53 Creatine as an energy booster 05:03 Muscle recovery and performance enhancement 07:54 Creatine as a muscle protector 09:44 Creatine for brain health and focus 11:55 Bone health and strength 13:10 Creatine as a mood stabilizer 14:35 Final takeaways and next steps VALUABLE RESOURCES The Ultimate Guide to Creatine for Women - Dosage, timing, and what to buy (Free download): https://academy.angelafosterperformance.com/creatine-guide Interview with Dr. Darren Kand - Deep dive into creatine science https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sLWaRcKNjMo ⁠Join The High Performance Health Community⁠ ⁠Click here⁠ for discounts on all the products I personally use and recommend A BIG thank you to our sponsors who make the show possible: Hormone Harmony - go to LVLUPHEALTH.COM/ANGELA and use the code ANGELA at checkout for an exclusive 15% off Defender Shield - go to DEFENDERSHIELD.COM/ANGELA and use the code ANGELA at checkout for an exclusive 10% off ABOUT THE HOST Angela Foster is an award-winning Nutritionist, Health & Performance Coach, Speaker, and Host of the High Performance Health podcast.

Angela welcomes special guest, Dave Asprey, founder of the biohacking movement, on how unseen, pre-conscious processes in your body, particularly within the mitochondria, dictate your energy, reactions, and susceptibility to emotional triggers. Dave also explains why your body's initial operating system, driven by primal needs—fear, food, and fertility—influences your choices and emotional states before your conscious mind intervenes. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Pre-Conscious Body Decisions: Your body, specifically the mitochondria, processes reality and decides your emotional response within a one-third of a second 'censorship window'  The Five F-Words of the Body's Operating System: The body's primal decisions are based on five priorities: Fear (run away from danger), Food (eat everything), Fertility (reproduce), Friend (support community), and Forgiveness (evolution and emotional editing). Suffering as a Choice: People will unconsciously continue patterns of suffering until the pain is great enough to overcome their internal resistance and they actively choose to change Forgiveness as an Altered State: True forgiveness is a measurable, physiological process that happens in the body, which involves finding gratitude for a small positive outcome from a negative event TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: 01:06: EMF exposure and its impact on energy, hormones, and recovery. 04:09: The concept of triggers as a 'loaded gun'. 12:53: Explanation of the body's 'censorship window' and the five F-words 23:44: Health and financial challenges  29:10: The scientific difference between loud, reactive Fear and quiet, faster Intuition VALUABLE RESOURCES ⁠Join The High Performance Health Community⁠ ⁠Click here⁠ for discounts on all the products I personally use and recommend A BIG thank you to our sponsors who make the show possible: Defender Shield - go to ⁠DEFENDERSHIELD.COM/ANGELA⁠ and use the code ANGELA at checkout for an exclusive 10% off Supercharge your energy and upgrade your mitochondria with Mitopure - go to timeline.com/angela and enter code ANGELA to save 10%  QUANTUM UPGRADE - Go to quantumupgrade.io and use code ANGELA15 to get your 15 day free trial.

In this episode, Dr. Stacy Sims returns for her fourth appearance on the podcast to share her latest insights into women's health, performance, and longevity. She clears up common misconceptions about aging and fitness, emphasizing the importance of foundational practices - sleep, nutrition, and consistent training - over chasing advanced supplements or quick fixes. Dr. Sims highlights the gender differences in exercise research, explains why women need tailored approaches to training, and explores how HIIT, resistance workouts, and structured year-round plans can transform strength and resilience. The discussion also covers gut health, menopause hormone therapy, protein timing, and strategies to keep young girls engaged in sports. KEY TAKEAWAYS Start with the basics – Sleep, nutrition, and consistency matter most for longevity. Female-specific research – Women need health and fitness strategies rooted in their physiology. Tailored training – HIIT, resistance, and recovery should shift with life stages. Hormonal health – Perimenopause and menopause impact performance and should be understood. Gut & supplements – Creatine, glutamine, and nutrition can support muscle, energy, and digestion.

Angela and special guest Peter Crone look at the psychological barriers that prevent people from overcoming negative, repeated life patterns, asserting that these habitual actions are merely symptoms of deeper, unaccepted subconscious beliefs about oneself.  They examine the concept of the "fresh start effect" and explains that true freedom from a cycle of self-sabotage, whether in relationships, finance, or career, begins with the radical acceptance of one's past KEY TAKEAWAYS: Repeated negative patterns are symptomatic of unrecognised, deeper subconscious constraints and self-views, rather than the core problem itself. The "I could have done this" or "I should have done that" narrative is a lie that serves only to reinforce the ego's view of itself as inadequate, keeping a cycle of self-judgement alive. True breakthrough and high performance come from accepting your personal history completely, using the logic that "what happened happened and couldn't have happened any other way because it didn't," which eliminates the psychological time of past regret and future worry. The fear of the unknown is a misconception; people are actually scared of what their brain, using a history of failures, is superimposing onto the blank canvas of the future. TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: The idea that patterns are symptomatic of something deeper (03:52) The profound quote on accepting your past (09:59) The story of the professional athlete who was told he had the "capacity to suck" (14:38) The final, liberating thought on why people fear the unknown (22:42) VALUABLE RESOURCES ⁠Join The High Performance Health Community⁠ ⁠Click here⁠ for discounts on all the products I personally use and recommend Link to full episode ABOUT THE HOST Angela Foster is an award winning Nutritionist, Health & Performance Coach, Speaker and Host of the High Performance Health podcast.

First up the team discuss Gary Brecka and the recent Health Optimisation Summit 2025, held in London on September 13–14, 2025, at the Business Design Centre. The event billed itself as bringing together experts in health, longevity, and biohacking, with Brecka sharing his science-backed strategies for health optimisation. Oli was there - what did he make of it? And is it indicative of a wider issue when celebrity health experts are being treated like 21st century miracle workers? Next up the team look at hydrogen water. Regular water already has hydrogen in the form of H2O, but hydrogen water claims that added hydrogen is more accessible to cells and acts as an antioxidant. But, is it really all it's cracked up to be? And finally, Oli is here with a prediction - is our furniture about to get a whole lot more wellness-focussed?

Angela is joined by internationally renowned medical doctor and researcher Dr. William Li for an eye-opening conversation about metabolism, fat loss, and the science of food as medicine. Dr. Li debunks common myths, like the belief that metabolism “slows down” with age, and explains how excess body fat, not age, is the real driver of metabolic decline. They also explore groundbreaking research on foods that activate brown fat, reduce visceral fat, and improve health span, offering practical, science-backed strategies you can use today. KEY TAKEAWAYS Metabolism Myths Debunked: Human metabolism remains rock-stable from ages 20–60 and only slightly declines after that. The real issue is excess fat, not aging. Visceral vs. Brown Fat: Visceral fat harms metabolism, while brown fat is metabolically active and helps burn visceral fat. Food as Medicine: Everyday foods like tomatoes, berries, extra virgin olive oil, and even coffee can activate brown fat and improve metabolic health. Lifestyle Choices Matter: Stress, poor sleep, alcohol, and ultra-processed foods slow metabolism. With the right choices, 60 can truly be the new 20. Personalized Health: There's no one-size-fits-all prescription. How you live, eat, and manage stress determines how well your metabolism functions. TIMESTAMPS & KEY TOPICS 00:00 Introduction 04:21 Global Research on Metabolism 09:13 4 Phases of Human Metabolism 12:56 How Stress, Sleep & Lifestyle Affect Metabolism 25:03 Food as Medicine: Metabolism-Boosting Foods 29:21 Brown Fat vs. White Fat: Burning Visceral Fat 44:25 Human Brown Fat & Its Role in Weight Loss 48:33 Elemental Eating & Traditional Diets That Support Longevity 51:59 Modern Toxins, Processed Foods & Health Hacks 58:36 Cholesterol, Heart Health & Cardiovascular Prevention 1:05:09 Balancing Metabolic Health, Aging & Longevity 1:06:32 Conclusion & How to Connect with Dr. William Li VALUABLE RESOURCES ⁠Join The High Performance Health Community⁠ ⁠Click here⁠ for discounts on all the products I personally use and recommend A BIG thank you to our sponsors who make the show possible: Hormone Harmony - go to LVLUPHEALTH.COM/ANGELA and use the code ANGELA at checkout for an exclusive 15% off Defender Shield - go to DEFENDERSHIELD.COM/ANGELA and use the code ANGELA at checkout for an exclusive 10% off ABOUT THE GUEST Dr. William Li is a world-renowned medical doctor, researcher, and President/Founder of the Angiogenesis Foundation.

Angela and Kate Muir look at the profound impact of perimenopause on women's mental health, particularly for those with a history of conditions like postpartum depression, who may be more sensitive to hormonal fluctuations.  Kate explains the neurological changes during menopause using the analogy of "Inside Out" characters, highlighting how the decline of key hormones like oestrogen (joyful) and progesterone (calming) and the resulting increase in cortisol can lead to symptoms like anxiety, depression, sleeplessness, and brain fog, severely affecting confidence and productivity KEY TAKEAWAYS: Hormonal Sensitivity: Women with a history of mental health issues like postpartum depression are often more sensitive to the hormonal fluctuations of perimenopause The Brain's Hormonal Shift: The decline of oestrogen (linked to serotonin) and progesterone (calming) during menopause leaves hormone receptors empty, leading to increased cortisol  Under-Recognised Benefits of Testosterone: Beyond libido, testosterone is crucial for women's mental health, aiding in motivation, drive, and cognitive function Holistic Support for Brain Health: Optimising nutrition (high protein), sleep hygiene (using micro-recoveries and supplements like L-theanine and phosphatidylserine), and specific exercises (compound lifts to increase BDNF) can significantly support brain health TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: [0:22] -: Link Between Postpartum Depression and Perimenopause [1:27] -: "Inside Out" Analogy for Hormonal Decline [2:45] -: Mental Health Symptoms and Physical Effects [7:47] -: Testosterone's Role Beyond Libido VALUABLE RESOURCES ⁠Join The High Performance Health Community⁠ ⁠Click here⁠ for discounts on all the products I personally use and recommend A BIG thank you to our sponsors who make the show possible: ABOUT THE HOST Angela Foster is an award winning Nutritionist, Health & Performance Coach, Speaker and Host of the High Performance Health podcast.

Angela and special guest Lara Briden examine the importance of key metabolic nutrients that are often missing from modern diets, particularly for women in perimenopause.  They discuss the top five nutrients—magnesium, taurine, choline, inositol, and glycine—that can help calm the nervous system, improve energy, and enhance metabolic health, and highlight how these supplements can support insulin sensitivity and overall well-being, especially during hormonal changes KEY TAKEAWAYS: Role of Magnesium and Taurine: Both magnesium and taurine are effective for their ability to support healthy mitochondria, calm the nervous system, and improve insulin sensitivity Importance of Choline: Choline is identified as a crucial nutrient, particularly for women experiencing menopause, as oestrogen loss can impair the body's ability to produce choline Inositol for Insulin Sensitivity: Inositol is noted for its effectiveness in improving insulin sensitivity, especially for those with conditions like PCOS and during perimenopause Holistic Approach to Perimenopause: Women in perimenopause do not have to accept symptoms like fatigue and weight gain as normal. A combination of dietary changes, nutrient supplementation, and lifestyle adjustments can help mitigate these issues TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: [00:00:49] Magnesium and taurine benefits. [00:03:25] Glycine for sleep and detox. [00:07:10] Insulin resistance in perimenopause.

Angela is joined by lifestyle expert, Peter Crone for a discussion about the complexities of overcoming past patterns and subconscious constraints that hinder personal growth.  Peter talks about the importance of acceptance, stating that our history couldn't have unfolded any other way, which allows us to release the burdens of guilt and self-judgment, and illustrates how fear and past experiences shape our current behaviours and thought processes KEY TAKEAWAYS: Understanding Patterns: Repeated patterns in life often stem from deeper subconscious constraints and unresolved past experiences Acceptance of History: True acceptance involves recognising that past events couldn't have happened any other way because they didn't The Power of Commitment: Commitment is a crucial element in creating desired outcomes Letting Be vs. Letting Go: Instead of trying to let go of past experiences, individuals should focus on letting them be. This means acknowledging past hurts and integrating them into one's identity without allowing them to define or limit future possibilities TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: [00:01:06] Overcoming subconscious constraints. [00:05:44] Accepting past history. [00:27:23] Acceptance of our humanity. [00:28:50] Embracing uncertainty for freedom. [00:52:19] Gender differences in emotional processing. [01:01:43] Pure possibility and imagination. [01:04:36] Words shape reality.

Angela and special guest Barton Scott look at the intricate relationship between nutrition and mental health, particularly focusing on anxiety, bipolar disorder, and mood swings, by examining a personal story about a past relationship, highlighting how low sodium levels can significantly impact emotional well-being and behaviour KEY TAKEAWAYS: There is a correlation between nutritional intake and hormone production. Low levels of essential nutrients can affect adrenal hormone production, leading to symptoms like lethargy and fatigue, which are often associated with mood disorders. Sharing personal stories can be powerful. Struggles with mental health, illustrating how feelings of self-loathing and despair can be exacerbated by nutritional deficiencies. Mineral supplementation, particularly sodium, magnesium, and potassium, is key in improving mental clarity and overall well-being. The impact of receiving these minerals through medical treatment (like a saline drip) is also noted. Hair mineral testing is presented as a valuable tool for understanding metabolic function and thyroid health. It can reveal imbalances in essential minerals and guide dietary adjustments to improve overall health and energy levels. TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: [00:02:38] Hormonal impact on mental health. [00:04:36] Sodium's impact on mental health. [00:09:12] Zinc supplementation and mercury levels.

Angela is joined by the one and only Cathy Heller, to explore the profound concepts of abundance, spirituality, and personal growth. Cathy shares her extensive background in Kabbalah and mindfulness, and talks passionately about the importance of viewing life through a spiritual lens to unlock our innate capacity for abundance. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Abundance as a Birthright: Abundance is our natural state, and we often limit ourselves by viewing reality through a narrow lens The Role of the Heart vs. the Mind: True abundance comes from operating from the heart, which is always in a state of wholeness and peace Healing Trauma and Subconscious Blocks: Many people struggle with receiving abundance due to unhealed trauma and subconscious beliefs that limit their potential Spiritual Connection: Establishing a spiritual practice is essential for personal transformation The Power of Intention and Giving: Focusing on giving and being of service to others can create a sense of purpose and fulfilment TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: [00:01:45] Limited view of reality.

Angela and special guest Eric Edmeades discuss the intricate relationship between diet, exercise, and women's health, particularly during challenging life stages such as perimenopause, and look at the common misconception that exercise is the primary solution for weight loss, emphasising instead the critical role of nutrition in achieving metabolic flexibility. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Nutrition is emphasised as the primary factor in achieving health and body composition, with food being considered more important than exercise For many women, particularly those under stress, intense exercise can lead to the release of stress hormones, which may hinder weight loss efforts Women may benefit more from less structured, community-oriented forms of exercise (like Zumba or Jazzercise) that allow for multitasking and social interaction, rather than high-intensity, focused workouts that can trigger stress responses. The Hadzabe people have unique cultural practices regarding childbirth and menstruation, with significant taboos surrounding male involvement in these experiences. This reflects a broader cultural context that influences women's health and social roles. TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: [00:01:08] Exercise vs. diet priority. [00:05:03] Perimenopausal women's exercise struggles. [00:07:10] Men's presence at childbirth. [00:10:05] Female circumcision and social conditioning.

Angela talks to Dr Sara Reardon, a pelvic health expert, about the often-overlooked topic of pelvic floor health. They discuss the anatomy and function of the pelvic floor, the impact of pregnancy and childbirth on pelvic health, and the importance of understanding normal bladder and bowel function from a young age KEY TAKEAWAYS: Understanding the Pelvic Floor: The pelvic floor is a group of muscles that support pelvic organs and play a crucial role in functions such as urination, bowel movements, and sexual health Importance of Education: Many women are not educated about what constitutes normal pelvic health, leading to prolonged suffering from conditions like endometriosis and pelvic floor issues Impact of Physical Activity: Female athletes, especially those involved in high-impact sports like gymnastics and cheerleading, are at a higher risk for pelvic floor issues due to the stress and pressure placed on these muscles Pelvic Floor Health in Menopause: The decline in estrogen during perimenopause and menopause can lead to vaginal dryness, painful intercourse, and weakened pelvic floor muscles.  TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: [00:01:07] Pelvic floor and endometriosis link.

Join Angela and John Miles for a thought-provoking discussion about the challenges of pursuing one's passion amidst financial concerns and life commitments. Drawing on research by psychologist Tom Gilovich, the conversation highlights the common regret of not pursuing an ideal life and the importance of breaking free from a cycle of unfulfilling work. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Pursuing Your Dreams: A significant number of people regret not pursuing their ideal life, with 76% expressing that their biggest regrets are the "what ifs" and "should haves" rather than mistakes made Gradual Change: Transformations in life do not happen overnight. Just as burnout develops over time, so too does the journey toward fulfilling your passions Focus on One Area: Instead of trying to overhaul every aspect of your life simultaneously, concentrate on making micro-differences in one specific area Balance Between Grit and Letting Go: Achieving a balance between hard work and a sense of ease is crucial TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: "It's not the mistakes that we make in life. It's the what ifs, it's the should haves." "I think the mistake that we make... is we try to start fixing all of them at the same time." "Being passion-struck is a continuous pursuit. It's not like you reach this destination and then you just stop." "To me, that's what being intentional is about. It's aligning your intentions with your actions and your long-term aspirations."

Dr Steven R. Gundry is an American physician and low-carbohydrate diet author, most famous for his book 'Unlocking the Keto Code'. He is also the founder of Gundry MD, dedicated to dramatically improving human health, happiness, and longevity through his unique vision of diet and nutrition.

KEY TAKEAWAYS: Mitochondrial Uncoupling: Mitochondrial uncoupling is a process where the mitochondria waste calories to generate heat, which can enhance metabolism and support fat loss Ketones as Signaling Compounds: Contrary to popular belief, ketones are not a super fuel for the body.

This week's bitesize delves into the fascinating world of peptides, particularly focusing on GHK and its role in supporting collagen networks within the body. The discussion highlights the significant collagen loss women experience post-menopause and how this impacts both appearance and joint health, while exploring the benefits of combining GHK with hyaluronic acid and vitamin C to enhance skin health and hydration from the inside out.
