The holidays don't have to send your blood sugar—and your symptoms—spiraling. Even in a season filled with cookies, cocktails, and comfort foods, you can stay steady, clear-headed, and grounded in your healing.Welcome to Day 1 of The 12 Days of Holiday Resilience, a special Renegade Remission series designed to support your mind, body, and spirit through what can be one of the most overwhelming times of year for those living with or recovering from serious illness.Sugar shows up everywhere in December—and for most people, it's just a treat. But for those navigating cancer, autoimmune disease, neurological illness, or chronic fatigue, sugar isn't just dessert… it's a physiological disruptor.In today's episode, we explore why blood sugar swings hit harder when your body is healing, why holiday cravings are often more emotional than physical, and how you can enjoy the season without sacrificing your stability.We'll also revisit a core truth from your healing nutrition blueprint:Every remission story, regardless of diet type, starts with reducing added and excess sugar.By the end of this episode, you'll learn:What sugar actually does inside the body—especially for those managing inflammation, immune dysfunction, or neurological conditions.How to stabilize your energy during the holidays using simple nutrition strategies that don't involve restriction or deprivation.Why holiday cravings often mask deeper emotional needs like connection, rest, nostalgia, or comfort.Five grounding practices you can use immediately—from pairing treats with protein to hydrating before you crave—to prevent the spike-crash cycle that often leads to symptom flares.A simple intuitive check-in that helps you discern whether you're craving sugar… or safety.You'll walk away with strategies that stabilize your physiology and your emotions—without skipping the joy of the season.Listen now to learn how to stay calm, steady, and nourished through the sweetest season of the year—while honoring your healing and still enjoying the magic (and the cookies).Join us tomorrow for Day 2, where we'll explore how to protect your peace and keep stress from hijacking your energy when holiday pressures rise.DISCLAIMERThis podcast is for educational purposes only and does not offer medical advice.

Heart disease continues to be one of the leading causes of death in the United States, yet millions remain unaware of their personal risk, not due to apathy, but because they've never been taught what to look for. A recent survey from the Association of Black Cardiologists (ABC) found that 40% of respondents didn't know that there are two types of cholesterol, one “good” and one “bad.” This lack of education is putting lives at risk, especially in cardiology deserts, where access to care is limited. In fact, 44% of counties in the Southeastern U.S. have little or no access to a cardiologist.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

Sometimes life forces you to hit the pause button. Not because you wanted to, but because your body says, “sit down honey, we've got work to do.”After nearly two decades of podcasting, we thought we'd seen it all, until this summer, when I had emergency eye surgery to save my vision, and Marc had his heart shocked back into rhythm after a scary bout of atrial fibrillation.Between the two of us, we had enough hospital bracelets to start our own line of jewelry. But through all of it, we learned a few things: about getting older, facing fear, and finding humor when life gets dizzy or blurry.On today's show, we're sharing what really happened, what we learned about resilience and love, and how to keep your sense of humor when the road gets bumpy. It's our comeback episode: I Almost Went Blind, a story about healing, gratitude, and seeing life in a whole new light.
Heart disease is still the leading cause of death, yet most people never learn about the tests that actually reveal their true risk. In this episode of the Medical Disruptor, I explain why your genetics are not your destiny, why traditional cholesterol panels often miss the full picture, and how modern testing can show what is really happening inside your arteries. My goal in this episode is to help you understand your true risk, build a prevention-focused care team, and take back control with information that is rooted in evidence, not fear. If you've ever been told your labs are “normal” but still want deeper answers, this episode gives you the modern roadmap for protecting your heart. Looking to schedule a consultation with Dr. E?

What if the key to surviving an “incurable” diagnosis wasn't found in a lab, but in your kitchen? In this extraordinary episode, we follow the true story of Pablo Kelly, who defied every medical prediction after walking away from radiation and chemotherapy for a terminal brain tumor—and used nutrition alone to reclaim his life.Diagnosed with glioblastoma multiforme, the most aggressive form of brain cancer, Pablo was given less than a year to live. But instead of accepting that fate, he began a radical nutritional experiment—one that would change the course of his health, and challenge everything medicine thought it knew about cancer metabolism.Through a strict ketogenic diet, Pablo starved his tumor's primary fuel source—glucose—forcing his body into a state of ketosis that favored healing over growth. Over time, his scans stabilized, his energy returned, and what doctors once called “impossible” became his reality: full remission.By the end of this episode, you'll discover:The remarkable true story of Pablo Kelly's recovery from glioblastoma multiforme—and what his decade of survival reveals about the body's ability to heal.The emerging science of metabolic therapies—and how food can influence cancer metabolism, inflammation, and repair.The shared nutritional patterns seen across documented cases of remission, no matter the diagnosis.Why “one-size-fits-all” diets fail—and how aligning food choices with intuition, feedback, and physiology can become a personal blueprint for healing.You'll also hear how Pablo's journey connects to other stories of remission—from plant-based to ketogenic to carnivore—and what they share at the cellular level: a return to whole, unprocessed, life-giving foods that allow the body to remember how to heal.Listen now to learn how one man's refusal to accept the inevitable—and his willingness to trust his body's intelligence—redefined what healing from cancer can mean. Because sometimes, the most radical act of hope begins with what's on your plate.DisclaimerThis podcast is for educational purposes only and does not offer medical advice.

On today's Good Day Health Show - ON DEMAND…Dr. Jack Stockwell, a NUCCA Chiropractor and GAPS Practitioner in SLC, UT (866.867.5070 | ForbiddenDoctor.com | JackStockwell.com), covers the the biggest news in the health and wellness space from a holistic, naturopath perspective. Dr. Jack just returned from a several-day conference seminar in Minneapolis where he was speaking 10 150+ doctors on two separate mornings, and one of the things he was speaking on and wanted to share on the Good Day Health Program is heart health. With all of the technology we have today, and miraculous surgeries, heart disease is still the number 1 killer in America. So what's missing? Why are deadly cardiac events still killing people at an alarming rate, making it the number 1 way to die for Americans. Additionally, the whole nutritional complex works best with heart disease problems, when the reality is that good food choices lead to better health. Then, Doug joins Dr. Jack to address listener questions, including the mind-body connection between what's manifested physically from stress and psychosomatic symptoms.Website: GoodDayHealthrShow.com Social Media: @GoodDayNetworks

Cardiovascular disease is the No. 1 killer of women nationwide, yet during midlife—the crucial time for prevention—many women fall out of regular medical care.Host Dr. Rachel Pope is joined by Dr. Lisa Larkin, an internal medicine and women's health expert and founder of Ms. Medicine. They discuss why women's cardiovascular risk spikes around menopause and what you can do about it now.The Midlife Risk SpikeDr. Larkin highlights a failure in the healthcare system: women aged 40 to 60 often receive the least medical care, right when prevention is most critical.The perimenopausal transition causes rapid and significant metabolic changes: Cholesterol rises and HDL protection declines. Development of insulin resistance. Increase in visceral fat (the "risky fat" around organs), which is a marker for cardiovascular disease.Standard risk tools often underestimate risk in women because they don't account for sex-specific factors like adverse pregnancy outcomes (preeclampsia, gestational diabetes). Women are also often allowed to run higher blood pressures, missing opportunities for early intervention.Management & The "Missed Boat" QuestionDr. Larkin stresses that Body Composition is more important than BMI, as most women gain risky visceral fat during this time. She recommends tracking body composition annually.For women in their mid-60s who ask if they've missed the boat on prevention or Hormone Therapy (HT): Assessment is Key: Dr. Larkin performs a highly individualized assessment, often utilizing a Coronary Calcium Score to check for established plaque. If Risk is Low: A patient with perfect health metrics and a Calcium Score of zero may still be a candidate for HT to treat symptoms and support bone health. If Risk is High: The priority is to aggressively fix every single risk factor (hypertension, elevated lipids) before considering hormones, as established plaque may carry more risk with estrogen.Dr. Larkin emphasizes that women must be their best advocates because the healthcare system is currently failing to provide the comprehensive care needed during this pivotal stage of life.
Join Dr. Pinkston and returning favorite guest, Dr. Carolyn Dean, as they tackle the great confusion surrounding sugar and its profound impact on your health. In this illuminating discussion, you'll learn: The Sugar-Heart Disease Connection: Discover the suppressed history of how the sugar industry successfully blamed fat for heart disease and the critical role of Vitamin C in preventing arterial damage. The Magnesium Link: Understand the biochemistry of how sugar metabolism depletes your body's essential magnesium stores and its direct connection to ATP energy production. Collagen & Scurvy: Hear how high sugar intake bumps off Vitamin C, which is vital for collagen production, potentially leading to weakened blood vessels (scurvy) and the mechanism of arterial plaque formation. The Addiction and Cravings Cycle: Explore why sugar is highly addictive, the role of yeast overgrowth (Candida) in cravings, and how nutrient depletion drives excessive eating. Artificial Sweeteners & Toxicity: Dr. Dean explains the dangers of many synthetic sweeteners, including how they break down into toxic compounds, and offers safer alternatives like Stevia and monk fruit. Peripheral Neuropathy Explained: Learn the fascinating (and terrifying) mechanism by which excess sugar transforms into sorbitol, which builds up inside cells and can lead to nerve damage. This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking to understand the science behind sugar's toxicity and how an integrative approach—focusing on critical nutrients like Magnesium and Vitamin C—can help you achieve the "Better Life."See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Dr. Alan Rozanski, a distinguished Professor of Medicine at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and Director of Nuclear Cardiology at Mount Sinai St. Luke's in New York City.
Dr. Alan Rozanski, a distinguished Professor of Medicine at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and Director of Nuclear Cardiology at Mount Sinai St. Luke's in New York City, details the holistic aspects of medicine, emphasizing the integrative approach involving lifestyle, mental health, exercise, and the psychological dimensions of heart health. Dr. Rozanski reveals the six domains of optimal health and vitality, sharing insights from his pioneering work in integrating such approaches into cardiology, the significant impact of stress, and the importance of maintaining a sense of life purpose and social connections. He also delves into modern imaging techniques, the utility of coronary artery calcium scores, and emerging treatments like GLP-1 drugs for cardiovascular health. The conversation provides a thorough exploration of comprehensive health management strategies beyond just medication and surgery.
My guest is Dr. David Fajgenbaum, MD, professor of translational medicine and human genetics at the University of Pennsylvania. He explains how, unbeknownst to most doctors, many approved medications can successfully treat or even cure diseases other than the ones they are typically used to treat. He shares his story of escaping death from Castleman's disease by discovering a life-saving treatment using repurposed drugs that were approved for other purposes. Our conversation explores how researchers, physicians, and you—the general public—can explore novel treatments and cures to conditions the medical profession has deemed untreatable, including cancers. We also discuss the crucial role of mindset in battling diseases and the lesser-known use of compounds to promote health and longevity. Read the episode show notes at hubermanlab.com.

Dr Sharonne Hayes, Professor of cardiovascular medicine and founding director of Mayo Clinic women's heart clinic, and Dr. Marysia Tweet, Associate Professor of cardiovascular medicine, and co-leader of the Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection Registry and leader in women's heart health join the show for this amazing November chapter of Always on EM. They are world experts on Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection authoring over 60 peer reviewed articles on the topic and in this chapter we explore with them the pitfalls and pearls related to making this diagnosis in the ED. SCAD is an important cause of myocardial infarction especially in patients who would not otherwise seem to be at risk for heart attacks for example active young women without comorbidities, and its imperitive that we as emergency physicians are current on this diagnosis.

The Real Truth About Cholesterol, Heart Disease & Cardiovascular Health SUMMARY What if your cholesterol isn't trying to kill you—it's trying to protect you? In this solo deep-dive, Coach Debbie Potts breaks down the outdated cholesterol myths and reveals the root-cause truth behind cardiovascular disease. Drawing from the work of Dave Feldman, Dr. Ben Bikman, Dr. Paul Mason, Ivor Cummins, and Dr. William Davis, Debbie explains why heart disease is an inflammatory, metabolic, and endothelial problem—not a cholesterol problem. Learn which markers truly predict risk, how to interpret your labs beyond LDL, the role of genetics and epigenetics, and what it really takes to reverse plaque and rebuild a resilient metabolism. If you're ready to move beyond fear and finally understand your cardiovascular health through the lens of functional, ancestral, and root-cause medicine, this episode is your roadmap. KEY TAKEAWAYS LDL isn't "bad"—oxidized, inflamed LDL in a damaged arterial wall is. Heart disease = terrain dysfunction: insulin resistance, oxidative stress, mitochondrial damage, and loss of nitric oxide. ApoB + inflammation predict risk far better than total cholesterol. Context matters: High LDL in a low-inflammation, insulin-sensitive body ≠ the same risk as in a high-inflammation body. Saturated fat isn't the enemy; oxidized seed oils and sugar are. You can't out-supplement poor habits. Sleep, stress regulation, circadian alignment, and daily movement build vascular resilience. Plaque can stabilize or regress when you heal the root causes. The WHOLESTIC Method™ integrates nutrition, movement, sleep, stress, digestion, hydration, and happiness to rebuild your health from the inside out. TESTS & TOOLS MENTIONED - talk to your provider!

Today, we're tackling a question that comes up often in peptide, weight loss, and nutrition clinics: why does one person see great results with semaglutide, while another responds better to tirzepatide—or even retatrutide? If you 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. https://pepties.com/partners/ All three peptides target the incretin system, but they act in slightly different ways—and those differences can dramatically affect outcomes. Let's start with the basics. Semaglutide is a GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) receptor agonist. It mimics the gut hormone GLP-1, which increases insulin when blood sugar is high (to help lower blood sugar), suppresses glucagon (which also decreases blood sugar), and slows gastric emptying. It also enhances satiety—so you feel full longer and eat less. Tirzepatide is a dual agonist, acting on both GLP-1 and GIP receptors. GIP—glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide—also helps with insulin secretion to lower blood sugar, increases fat metabolism, and may reduce some of the GI side effects seen with GLP-1 alone. Retatrutide, the newest in the lineup, is a triple agonist that targets GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon receptors. Retatrutide lightly activates the glucagon receptor while strongly activating GLP-1 and GIP receptors, which help regulate blood sugar and boost insulin secretion. This keeps blood sugar stable—or even improves it. Beyond blood sugar, glucagon also ramps up metabolism and calorie burning. By gently engaging glucagon receptors, retatrutide can increase energy expenditure and support fat loss without triggering large blood sugar spikes. So how do you decide which one might work best? Let's walk through common clinical situations. Patients with Hypothyroidism Let's talk about hypothyroidism. People with hypothyroidism often have slower metabolism, making weight loss more difficult even with a balanced diet. Low thyroid hormone levels slow calorie burning and energy use, so weight gain can occur more easily. For these patients, semaglutide is a reliable starting point—it helps regulate appetite and caloric intake. If progress plateaus, tirzepatide or retatrutide may provide an edge by boosting energy expenditure and fat oxidation, essentially "jump-starting" a slower metabolism. Patients with PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) What about patients with PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome)? Insulin resistance is common in PCOS, often leading to higher androgen levels (e.g., testosterone) and symptoms like irregular periods, acne, and excess hair growth. Hormonal changes also affect appetite-regulating hormones, increasing hunger and cravings. Both GLP-1 and dual agonists have proven effective in managing metabolic and reproductive aspects of PCOS. Typically, we start with semaglutide to improve weight, insulin sensitivity, androgen levels, and menstrual regularity. After a few months, if weight loss plateaus or cravings remain high, we may switch to tirzepatide. The added GIP activity enhances fat metabolism, insulin control, and may further support hormone regulation and ovulation. The key is starting with what's well-studied and tolerated, then stepping up if additional metabolic or reproductive support is needed. Type 2 Diabetes (T2DM) The next medical condition I'd like to talk about is type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Weight gain in T2DM often stems from insulin resistance. Cells don't respond effectively to insulin, prompting the pancreas to relelase more. High insulin levels encourage fat storage, particularly around the abdomen, while elevated blood sugar can increase hunger and cravings. Some diabetes medications, like insulin or sulfonylureas (e.g., glipizide or glyburide), can also contribute to weight gain. All three drugs lower blood sugar and promote weight loss, but tirzepatide currently shows the strongest combined A1c reduction (average blood sugar over the past 2 to 3 months) and weight loss. GIP and GLP-1 work together to enhance insulin response more effectively than GLP-1 alone. Retatrutide is in phase 3 trials, with potential FDA approval as early as 2027. Its glucagon receptor activity may offer additional glucose regulation and energy expenditure benefits. Patients with >15% Weight Loss Goals Okay, let's talk about weight loss goals and how this ties into the decision process for choosing a weight loss medication. For those patients looking to lose more than 15% of their total body weight, tirzepatide or retatrutide are likely to deliver greater results. Clinical data show semaglutide can achieve up to 15% total weight loss while tirzepatide can achieve up to 22% and retatrutide up to 24%. That said, semaglutide remains a highly effective option for weight loss. However, if progress begins to plateau, transitioning to a dual or triple agonist may help restart weight loss and push past that plateau. Pre- and Postmenopausal Women What about peri- and postmenopausal patients? Hormonal shifts during perimenopause and menopause slow metabolism and can increase cravings. Declining estrogen promotes abdominal fat storage and affects appetite-regulating hormones. Semaglutide helps with appetite control and gradual fat loss, while tirzepatide's GIP activation can further support fat metabolism when estrogen levels drop. Patients with Heart Disease or High Cholesterol The last group of patients I'd like to discuss is patients with heart disease (e.g., heart failure, stroke, heart attack, or even atherosclerosis) or people with high cholesterol. Semaglutide has the strongest cardiovascular outcomes data, reducing major adverse cardiac events by 20% and improving LDL cholesterol (bad cholesterol) and blood pressure. Tirzepatide shows promise for heart and lipid benefits, but those trials are still ongoing. For patients with prior heart attack, stroke, or severe coronary artery disease, semaglutide remains the safest evidence-backed starting point—unless intolerable side effects or weight loss resistance occur. Tolerability Now I want to switch gears a bit and talk about side effects and tolerablity of these peptides. Some patients experience stomach-related side effects like nausea, bloating, or acid reflux on semaglutide. Generally, tirzepatide tends to cause fewer GI side effects, likely due to GIP balancing GLP-1 activity in the gut. So patients struggling with nausea or other stomach-related side effects may find tirzepatide more tolerable. Just something to keep in mind. Individualizing Therapy Lastly, I want to highlight the importance of individualizing weight loss peptide treatments. There's no one-size-fits-all approach when it comes to these therapies. Clinicians should carefully consider a patient's goals, medical history, current medications, and tolerance before choosing the most appropriate option. Setting realistic expectations from the start is essential. It's important to remember that everyone's body responds differently because of factors like hormones, genetics, metabolism, gut microbiome balance, and lifestyle habits. These differences influence how effectively a peptide therapy works and how well it's tolerated. That's why ongoing monitoring and follow-up are such an important part of the process. Providers track progress, adjust dosing when needed, and switch medications if weight loss plateaus or side effects occur. The goal isn't just to lose weight quickly—it's to create a safe, sustainable plan that supports long-term metabolic health and helps patients feel their best.

What if the root cause of heart disease isn't cholesterol… but metabolic dysfunction?In this powerful episode of Metabolic Matters, I sit down with Dr. Philip C. Ovadia — a board-certified cardiothoracic surgeon, metabolic health expert, and author of Stay Off My Operating Table. Once an overweight surgeon facing his own pre-diabetes, Dr. Ovadia reversed his health through a low-carb, nutrient-dense lifestyle and discovered something medicine had missed for decades: that heart disease isn't a plumbing problem — it's a metabolic one. Together, we explore how the medical system lost its way, why lowering cholesterol hasn't fixed heart disease, and how insulin resistance, inflammation, and lifestyle are at the true core of cardiovascular dysfunction. We also talk about the courage it takes to question medical dogma — and why doing so may be the only way to reclaim real health. Dr. Ovadia's mission today is simple but revolutionary: to keep people off the operating table by empowering them to understand, measure, and repair their own metabolic health. His work is a bridge between cardiology and oncology, reminding us that nearly all chronic disease stems from the same broken terrain.Connect with Dr. Philip Ovadia: WebsiteStay Off My Operating Table BookYoutubeFacebookInstagram About Your HostI'm Dr. Nasha Winters, a global healthcare authority, best-selling author, and educator in the emerging field of integrative oncology and terrain-based cancer care.

Most people think heart disease is just about cholesterol. But what if the real issue is in your genes, your environment, and even your daily stress?In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Christopher Davis, a triple board-certified interventional cardiologist who's redefining what it means to take care of your heart. After years of performing stent procedures, he realized the conventional system was only treating symptoms, not causes. So he made a bold shift from reactive cardiology to a root-cause approach that blends advanced testing, functional medicine, detoxification, and even ancient healing wisdom. We discuss how genetics determine whether saturated fats help or harm you, why cholesterol itself isn't the enemy, and how inflammation and oxidative stress are the real threats to your arteries. If you've ever wondered why someone with perfect cholesterol can still have a heart attack, or why your stress levels matter just as much as your diet, this conversation will change how you think about cardiovascular health forever.Guest's website + socials:Website: https://revealvitality.com/christopher-davis/Instagram: @cjdavismdKayla's social + website:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kaylabarnes/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@femalelongevityTwitter: https://x.com/femalelongevity Website: https://www.kaylabarnes.com/Follow Her Female Protocol: https://www.protocol.kaylabarnes.com/Become a Member of Kayla's Female Longevity Membership: https://kayla-barnes-lentz.circle.so/checkout/become-a-member
