Starting college can change almost everything about your routine, including how, when, and what you eat. For students using ketogenic therapy as part of their mental health treatment, that transition can take some planning.In this interview, Dr. Bret Scher speaks with licensed mental health counselor Nicole Laurent about how students using ketogenic therapy with clinical support can navigate a college setting, where dining halls, dorm rooms, busy schedules, social events, and limited budgets can all affect food choices.Nicole shares practical ideas for:Keeping simple foods that support nutritional ketosis in a dorm roomMaking dining hall options workPlanning ahead for busy weeksUsing meal prep or delivery services strategicallyTalking with roommates and friends about dietary choicesAsking for support when staying consistent gets difficultThey also talk about the importance of paying attention to food quality. For students who are not using ketogenic therapy, reducing ultra-processed foods and eating more whole foods may still be a meaningful place to start.If ketogenic therapy is part of a student's mental health care plan, the transition to college may require some adjustments. Planning ahead, building a support system, and working with an experienced care team can help students stay consistent as their routines and environment change.If you're using ketogenic therapy for a psychiatric condition, work closely with an experienced healthcare provider before making treatment changes.

Send us Fan MailChris Mearns is the founder of LIV3 Health and the creator of the Fructose Model, a systems-based approach focused on how fructose metabolism may influence cellular energetics and contribute to chronic metabolic dysfunction. He is a primary author involved in the development of scientific literature advancing a broader model of metabolic health.His work integrates findings across biochemistry, physiology, and clinical research, with particular attention to fructokinase activity, uric acid signaling, mitochondrial function, and cellular energy dynamics. This work aims to unify established concepts, such as metabolic syndrome, mitochondrial dysfunction, inflammation, and neurodegeneration, within a common energetic framework centered on cellular energy availability and recovery capacity.It also explores how this perspective may help reconcile existing models of metabolism while connecting survival pathways to the progression of chronic disease. Chris is known for bridging the gap between scientific research and real-world application.Through podcast appearances and his YouTube channel, @TheFructoseModel, he translates complex metabolic science into clear, usable insights for both general audiences and health professionals. His research, educational work, and product development are guided by a central thesis: restoring metabolic resilience requires addressing upstream energetic stress, with fructose metabolism representing a central, yet often underrecognized, influence.Find Chris at-https://liv3health.com/YT- @TheFructoseModelIG- @tryliv3Find Boundless Body at-myboundlessbody.comBook a session with us here! 

Send us Fan MailKeto. Carnivore. Vegan. Mediterranean. Low-carb. Low-fat. With so many competing opinions about nutrition, eating for health and longevity has become unnecessarily complicated.In this episode of the Fit Rx Health & Wellness Podcast, Dr. Greg Dennis continues the 7 Pillars of Optimal Health series with Pillar #2: Nutrition.After years of studying nutrition, longevity, and metabolic health—and seeing what works in clinical practice—Dr. Dennis shares how his own thinking about nutrition has evolved. Rather than following a diet with a particular name, he believes the foundation of good nutrition can be surprisingly simple: prioritize protein, eat mostly real whole foods, maintain a healthy body composition, and individualize carbohydrate and fat intake based on your metabolic health, activity level, and goals.In this episode, you'll learn:Why calories still matterWhy protein becomes increasingly important as we ageThe connection between muscle, metabolic health, and longevityWhether red meat belongs in a healthy dietWhy healthy fats are beneficial—but aren't unlimitedWhy carbohydrates aren't necessarily the enemyThe difference between whole-food carbohydrates and highly processed foodsWhen low-carb and ketogenic diets may be useful therapeutic toolsThe pros and limitations of vegan, vegetarian, and carnivore dietsWhy ultra-processed foods may be a much bigger problem than any single macronutrientWhat Dr. Dennis actually eats and how his own approach to nutrition has changed over the yearsThe takeaway is simple: your diet doesn't need a name.For most people, building meals around quality protein and minimally processed whole foods—while limiting the highly processed foods that dominate the modern diet—is a sustainable foundation for metabolic health, maintaining muscle, healthy aging, and longevity.This is the second episode in the 7 Pillars of Optimal Health series. Follow the Fit Rx Health & Wellness Podcast as we explore Sleep, Nutrition, Movement & Strength, Hormonal Health, Emotional Health, Relational Health, and Spiritual Health.Support the show

In this episode, Mike Fave joins me to break down why these diets deliver such fast results early on, how the mainstreaming and commercialization of keto changed the game for the worse, and why so many people are now dealing with the fallout — microbiome disruption, hormone imbalances, metabolic dysregulation, and a much harder road back to feeling normal.We also get into why carnivore carries its own unique risks, why "keto" today isn't the same diet it was five years ago, and what it actually takes to rebuild and recover once the damage is done.If you've ever done keto, carnivore, or extended fasting — or you're doing one right now — this episode fills in what usually gets left out.In this episode:Why low-carb and carnivore diets produce such fast early resultsThe distinct microbiome risks tied to carnivore specificallyWhy extended fasting and severe restriction can backfire hormonally and metabolicallyWhat real recovery looks like after prolonged low-carb or carnivore eatingWhy personalization — not a one-size-fits-all diet — is the key to lasting resultsConnect with Mike Fave:https://mikefave.com/FREE Nutrition Cheatsheets:https://brian-getleaneatclean.beehiiv.com/subscribeClick to book a FREE 15 minute consult with Brian:https://calendly.com/bdgryn/15min-----How to Take Simple Steps to Reclaim the Body, Energy, and Strength You Had 10-15 Years Ago Using My Stepladder System:https://www.stepladdersystem.com/----B.rad Whey Protein Isolate Superfuel:The Best Protein on The Planet!

Can ketogenic therapy be safe for someone with heart disease, atherosclerosis, or a stent? Can you follow a ketogenic diet without losing weight? In this Metabolic Mailbag episode, Dr. Bret Scher answers viewer questions about ketogenic therapy, cardiovascular risk, anorexia recovery, pregnancy and nursing, schizophrenia remission, keto on a budget, and whether doctors learn about ketogenic therapy in medical school.He covers:Ketogenic therapy and cardiovascular disease after a stent or atherosclerosisHow to follow a ketogenic diet without unwanted weight lossWhat early research suggests about ketogenic therapy for weight-restored anorexiaKetogenic therapy during pregnancy or nursing, and why clinical supervision is essentialLab markers that may change during sustained nutritional ketosisWhy schizophrenia symptom remission is different from a cureHow genetics and metabolism may both contribute to serious mental illnessBudget-friendly ways to approach a well-formulated ketogenic dietWhy keto is rarely taught in medical schoolThe big takeaway is that ketogenic therapy is best understood as a clinical tool, not a one-size-fits-all template. Heart history, weight goals, symptoms, labs, pregnancy, medications, budget, and support all shape what the right approach looks like.

Craig explains why fat loss is about more than simply lowering calories, including the role of fuel partitioning, protein, dietary fat, carbohydrate intake, and the Randle cycle. They also explore why traditional high-fat keto or carnivore approaches can initially work well yet eventually lead to plateaus—or even weight gain—for some people, and why shifting toward a higher-protein, lower-energy approach may help. A major focus is protein-sparing modified fasting (PSMF): how Craig and Maria structure PSMF days, who may benefit most, how often they recommend using them, and why strategic maintenance days may help support long-term results. -

Carnivore was the eye-opener that showed me how to eliminate anything that could be bothering me, but five years later, animal-based is the framework that actually stuck. I've gone through paleo, keto, and carnivore, and none of them were failed attempts; each one raised the baseline and taught me something I still use today. In this episode, I break down the three things that actually changed (not my weight, not a number on a chart), why animal-based has outlasted every stricter diet I've tried, who should still go stricter first, and how raising our own food on the homestead reshaped the whole picture. Thank you to this episode's sponsor, Peluva! Peluva makes minimalist shoes to support optimal foot, back and joint health.

Carbs have become the new "fat is bad." Moms are showing up terrified of bread, rice, even fruit. In this episode, Brooke breaks down whether carbs actually cause weight gain, how many you really need, and the one shift that matters far more than cutting carbs out completely. What You'll Learn Carbs aren't the enemy, the type is what matters. Weight gain usually comes from processed, low-fiber carbs, not carbs in general. Swapping for higher fiber, more nutrient-dense options changes everything. There's no universal carb number. Needs shift based on activity level, pregnancy, breastfeeding, and life stage. A balanced plate matters more than hitting a specific gram target. Simple swaps make a big difference. Chickpea or lentil pasta, a brown rice and quinoa mix, higher fiber bread, and protein-packed breakfasts keep you fuller and prevent blood sugar crashes. Fiber needs increase with perimenopause and menopause. Aim for 25 to 30 grams a day. Higher fiber intake is linked to lower insulin resistance and even a 20% lower risk of hot flashes. Pairing carbs with protein and fat prevents blood sugar spikes. This is what actually curbs bingeing, not carb elimination. Keto isn't necessary for most moms. It has a place for specific medical conditions, but it's not the default answer for everyday weight loss. Carbs aren't what's derailing your progress, the type and the pairing are. Swap in more fiber, balance your plate with protein and healthy fats, and stop fearing the foods that actually give you energy to keep up with your kids.

Could your skin be revealing what's happening inside your gut?In Episode 149 of The Dr. Haley Show, Dr. Michael Haley sits down with Dr. Jonathan Carp, a board-certified dermatologist, lifestyle medicine expert, and founder and CEO of Miracle Noodle, for a fascinating conversation about the gut-skin connection, inflammation, metabolism, nutrition, mental imagery, and taking a more active role in your own health.Dr. Carp explains why he has always viewed the skin as a window into the body and shares the story of a patient with severe lupus whose unexpected improvement changed the direction of his medical career.That experience led him to explore nutrition and lifestyle medicine more deeply while continuing to practice conventional dermatology.The conversation also explores acne and insulin, psoriasis and metabolic health, the gut microbiome, mental imagery, and the idea that different people may have very different “80/20” factors influencing their health.Later, Dr. Carp tells the story of traveling to Japan and eating a bowl of konjac noodles at a Buddhist vegetarian restaurant outside Kyoto. That experience eventually led him to create Miracle Noodle, now sold in thousands of stores nationwide.Dr. Carp explains what konjac and glucomannan are, why glucomannan is considered a soluble prebiotic fiber, how Miracle Noodle fits into low-carbohydrate and ketogenic diets, and the difference between the company's traditional konjac noodles and its newer egg-white noodles.In This EpisodeWhy the skin can provide clues about internal healthAcne, insulin, hormones, and metabolic healthHow gut health may influence inflammatory skin conditionsThe lupus patient who changed Dr. Carp's approach to medicineMental imagery and the work of Dr. Gerald EpsteinWhy Dr. Carp views the gut and skin as closely connected systemsMetabolic health, inflammation, and the microbiomeThe difference between a disease-reversal diet and a long-term dietWhy whole, minimally processed foods remain central to Dr. Carp's approachThe Japanese meal that inspired Miracle NoodleKonjac, glucomannan, and soluble prebiotic fiberMiracle Noodle for low-carb, keto, and gluten-free dietsHow to prepare konjac noodlesMiracle Noodle's high-protein egg-white noodlesWhy Dr. Carp wants people to become their own authority in healthThree pieces of advice that helped shape his lifeEpisode Chapters00:00 Your Gut Is an Extension of Your Skin00:49 Meet Dermatologist Dr. Jonathan Carp03:04 The Skin as a Window Into Internal Health06:26 Acne, Insulin & Gut Health08:50 The Lupus Patient Who Changed His Practice12:16 Mental Imagery and Healing15:08 How Dr. Carp Uses Healing Visualization19:29 The Gut-Skin Connection Explained23:10 Metabolism, Gut Health & Inflammation27:09 The Four Pillars and the 80/20 Rule30:23 Disease-Reversal Diet vs. Long-Term Diet33:00 How Miracle Noodle Began in Japan34:45 Glucomannan: The Fiber Behind Miracle Noodle35:50 Keto, Satiety & Fasting-Mimicking Diets38:10 Gut Benefits of Konjac and Glucomannan40:46 How to Prepare Miracle Noodle41:44 Egg-White Noodles: A High-Protein Alternative43:11 Fiber, Regularity & the Microbiome45:21 Where to Find Miracle Noodle46:24 Becoming Your Own Authority in Health48:22 The “Power Words” That Shaped Dr. Carp51:41 Final ThoughtsResourcesFull show notes and transcript:https://drhaley.com/gut-skin-connection-jonathan-carp/Watch the video interview on YouTube:https://youtu.be/RDLizF7_QgwMiracle Noodle:https://miraclenoodle.com/Healing Visualizations by Gerald Epstein, M.D.Mentioned by Dr. Carp as a resource for learning the mental-imagery techniques discussed in the episode.Radical Remission by Kelly A.

Can ketogenic therapy improve symptoms, cognition, and metabolic health in people living with serious mental illness?In this episode of Metabolic Mind, Dr. Bret Scher speaks with Dr. Judy Ford, Juliette Kyner (previously Juliette Ward), and Dr. Shebani Sethi about the first-ever randomized controlled trial of a ketogenic diet intervention in individuals living with schizophrenia spectrum disorder or bipolar I disorder with psychotic features.The conversation explores what made this trial possible, from prepared meals and coaching to the structured support that helped participants stay engaged. It also highlights encouraging four-month findings across metabolic health, cognition, depressive symptoms, and both positive and negative psychiatric symptoms.They discuss:Why this trial is an important step for metabolic psychiatryHow participants adhered to a ketogenic diet with structured supportWhat changed in metabolic health markers like BMI, A1C, and HOMA-IRWhy cognitive improvements were especially meaningfulHow positive symptoms, negative symptoms, and depressive symptoms changed over timeWhat family members noticed as participants re-engaged with daily lifeWhy future studies may need to be longer, larger, and more mechanisticThis trial marks an important step for metabolic psychiatry and points to the need for larger, longer, fully controlled studies that can better clarify how ketogenic interventions may affect metabolic, cognitive, and psychiatric outcomes.

Food tracking, weighing portions and stepping on the scales are increasingly framed as obsessive behaviours—but are the tools themselves really the problem? In this Mini Mikkipedia episode, Mikki explores what the research actually says about self-monitoring for weight loss and maintenance. She looks at evidence showing that regular weighing and food tracking can improve awareness, support behaviour change and help people catch weight regain early, while also acknowledging that tracking can become problematic for some people. The crucial distinction appears to be how and why the tool is being used. Mikki discusses autonomous versus guilt-driven motivation, the importance of self-talk, and when numbers can shift from useful information to a measure of self-worth. The takeaway: tracking can be incredibly useful—but it should serve you, not control you. In this episode: Why self-monitoring is consistently associated with successful weight management  What research says about daily weighing, food logging and disordered eating  When tracking shifts from useful feedback to unhealthy fixation  Why motivation and self-talk can completely change the tracking experience  How to use tracking temporarily, strategically and without needing to log forever Contact Mikki:https://mikkiwilliden.com/https://www.facebook.com/mikkiwillidennutritionhttps://www.instagram.com/mikkiwilliden/https://linktr.ee/mikkiwillidenNZ listeners - save 10% off Calocurb by using the code Mikkipedia10 at www.calocurb.co.nzSave 20% on all Nuzest Products WORLDWIDE with the code MIKKI at www.nuzest.co.nz, www.nuzest.com.au or www.nuzest.comCurranz supplement: MIKKI saves you 25% at www.curranz.co.nz or www.curranz.co.uk off your first order

Du weißt eigentlich schon ziemlich viel über Abnehmen – und trotzdem kommst du nicht richtig voran? Keto, Intervallfasten, Kalorien zählen, Protein, Darmgesundheit, Hormone, Cortisol, Krafttraining, Schritte, Schlaf, Supplements, Blutzucker, Wechseljahre, Meal Prep – überall hörst du etwas anderes. Und irgendwann wird aus all diesen Tipps keine Klarheit mehr, sondern nur noch Lärm. In dieser Folge sprechen wir darüber, warum viele Frauen beim Abnehmen nicht an zu wenig Wissen scheitern, sondern daran, dass sie zu viele Methoden gleichzeitig ausprobieren. Du erfährst:  warum zu viel Abnehm-Wissen handlungsunfähig machen kann  weshalb neue Tipps sich oft wie Fortschritt anfühlen, aber noch keine Umsetzung sind  warum viele Frauen ständig zwischen Diäten, Regeln und Methoden wechseln  weshalb einfache Grundlagen wie Eiweiß, Bewegung, Schlaf und Wochenendstruktur oft unterschätzt werden  wie du erkennst, was bei dir gerade wirklich bremst  und warum ein einfacher Plan oft mehr bringt als die perfekte Strategie Diese Folge ist für dich, wenn du abnehmen möchtest, aber vor lauter Informationen nicht mehr weißt, womit du anfangen sollst. Vielleicht brauchst du gerade nicht noch einen neuen Trend.Vielleicht brauchst du weniger Lärm, mehr Klarheit und einen Plan, der auch an einem normalen Dienstag funktioniert.

Our metabolism is the core to our health, balancing everyday building (anabolism) with the breakdown of cells (catabolism). In our 21st-century toxic food environment, many of us are now living with metabolic dysfunction and chronic diseases that result: high blood pressure, obesity, insulin resistance, diabetes, infertility, autoimmune illnesses, mental illnesses and cancer. These chronic diseases are not cured, but rather “managed” with medications, often for the rest of our lives.Metabolic coaching focuses on root cause healing to address and reverse chronic illnesses, empowering patients to improve their health by addressing lifestyle issues.Find Dr. Jocelyn Foran at-https://www.metabolicmedical.ca/aboutIG- @MetabolicMedicalFB- @Metabolic MedicalFind Boundless Body at-myboundlessbody.comBook a session with us here!

wo people can have the same body weight and BMI yet face very different metabolic risks. In this episode, Mikki explores the biological reasons men and women store fat differently and why location matters more than the number on the scale. She explains how oestrogen directs fat towards the hips and thighs before menopause, why declining oestrogen can shift fat towards the abdomen, and how immune signalling, liver function and cholesterol patterns differ between the sexes. Mikki also examines women's surprising advantage in insulin sensitivity, the role of skeletal muscle in glucose control, and why waist circumference may predict cardiovascular risk better than BMI. This episode offers a nuanced look at fat distribution, menopause and metabolic health, while reinforcing the powerful role of nutrition, exercise and lifestyle.Topics covered:Why equal body weight does not mean equal metabolic riskHow oestrogen influences fat storage and fat releaseWhy visceral fat often increases through menopauseSex differences in inflammation, liver health and cholesterolThe roles of muscle mass and insulin sensitivity Contact Mikki:https://mikkiwilliden.com/https://www.facebook.com/mikkiwillidennutritionhttps://www.instagram.com/mikkiwilliden/https://linktr.ee/mikkiwillidenNZ listeners - save 10% off Calocurb by using the code Mikkipedia10 at www.calocurb.co.nzSave 20% on all Nuzest Products WORLDWIDE with the code MIKKI at www.nuzest.co.nz, www.nuzest.com.au or www.nuzest.comCurranz supplement: MIKKI saves you 25% at www.curranz.co.nz or www.curranz.co.uk off your first order

Bryan Johnson was diagnosed with autoimmune gastritis in 2026, and within a day the internet had already decided it was his vegan diet — I don't think it's that simple. In this episode I break down what autoimmune gastritis actually is, why Bryan's own data (crashed ferritin, failed iron absorption, a second autoimmune condition since he was 21) points to something deeper than food alone, and why both sides of this argument — "it's the diet" and "diet has nothing to do with it" — are missing the real pattern. I walk through the genetics-plus-environment framework behind autoimmune disease, compare Bryan's lifestyle against how humans have lived for most of our history — sun exposure, food sourcing, community, caloric rhythm — and lay out the specific changes I'd make instead, most of which don't cost you anything.

They discuss how astrology once sat alongside herbal medicine, food, seasonal living and close observation of the natural world as part of a practitioner's medical map.This is not a conversation about newspaper horoscopes or using a birth chart to diagnose disease. Instead, Kira explains how medical astrology may be used as a constitutional and reflective framework for considering temperament, health patterns, resilience, vulnerability and timing. They explore the roles of the four elements, the relationship between planetary cycles and the body, and whether astrology can sometimes provide language for experiences that are not easily captured by standard testing.Drawing on Kira's background in naturopathy and nutrition, they also examine how ancestral knowledge might complement modern healthcare without romanticising the past or abandoning scientific scrutiny. Ultimately, the conversation asks whether health is only about identifying what is wrong with the body, or whether it can also involve understanding the patterns the body may be expressing.Kira is an Australian Naturopath, Nutritionist, Herbalist and Medical Astrologer. Known for her vibrant, straight-forward teaching style, Kira has lectured in Medical Astrology within Australia, North America and Europe.In private practice for over 25 years, Kira combines her knowledge in Natural Medicine with her passion for Medical Astrology into a wonderful mix of mind/body medicine. Kira's Medical Astrology training and mentoring programs attract hundreds of students every year from around the world, with rave reviews about her teaching style and breadth of knowledge and application.

Your immune system is built to hunt invaders, but every so often it turns its weaponry on your own tissues. Over the last 50 years, autoimmune disease has gone from an uncommon condition to something almost everyone knows at least one person living with, and the two variables that move symptoms more than anything are almost never discussed in a 10-minute doctor's appointment. Inside today's episode, I take the umbrella view on autoimmunity, covering how the whole category works and what the underlying mistake looks like whether it lands on the thyroid in Hashimoto's, the joints in rheumatoid arthritis, the nerve coating in MS, or half a dozen organs at once in Lupus.Topics discussed: - The Rising Autoimmune Curve- The Immune Balance Tipping Point- Why 80% of Patients Are Women- The Hormone Picture in Autoimmune Disease- Oral Contraceptives and Autoimmune Risk- Gut Microbiome and Immune History- Trauma, PTSD, and Chronically Low Cortisol- The Nutrition Ladder for Autoimmune- AIP, Wahls, and Keto for Severe Cases---------- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠My Live Program for Coaches: The Functional Nutrition and Metabolism Specialization ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.metabolismschool.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠---------- [Free] Metabolism School 101: The Video Series⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://www.metabolismschool.com/metabolism-101⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠----------Subscribe to My Youtube Channel: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://youtube.com/@sammillerscience?si=s1jcR6Im4GDHbw_1⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠----------⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Grab a Copy of My New Book - Metabolism Made Simple⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠---------- Stay Connected: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram: @sammillerscience⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Youtube: SamMillerScience⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook: The Nutrition Coaching Collaborative Community⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok: @sammillerscience⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠----------“This Podcast is for general informational purposes only and does not constitute the practice of medicine, nursing or other professional health care services, including the giving of medical advice, and no doctor/patient relationship is formed.

Are you tired of working out endlessly and trying every generic diet, only to see zero results? What if the problem isn't your discipline, but a lack of information about your unique biology? In this episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex sits down with Dora Maria, a Bay Area native, UC Berkeley graduate, and former healthcare executive who spent 15 years within the medical system. Dora shares her incredible journey from growing up in a garage while her mother battled breast cancer, to reaching the peak of her career, only to find herself in the back of an ambulance at 39 years old. After struggling with pre-diabetes, a 50-pound weight gain, and uncontrolled hypertension, Dora realized that the traditional healthcare system is designed for surviving, not thriving. She took her health into her own hands, utilizing DNA testing and advanced lab panels to uncover exactly what her body needed. Dora breaks down the truth about popular weight loss trends, explaining why the Keto diet landed her in the ER with appendicitis, and why high-intensity workouts like Orange Theory were actually causing her body to hold onto fat. She also dives deep into the world of peptides, explaining the difference between weight loss GLPs (like Ozempic and Zepbound) and powerful longevity peptides (like BPC-157 and the Wolverine stack) for tissue regeneration and anti-aging. If you are a high-performing professional or entrepreneur looking to optimize your health, buy back your time, and finally get a customized plan that fits your DNA, this episode is a game-changer!

Can a ketogenic diet help improve mood and reduce depressive symptoms?A new meta-analysis published in JAMA Psychiatry examined 50 different keto studies, totaling over 40,000 participants, that included depression and anxiety outcomes. The results of the review demonstrated a modest improvement in depression symptoms across different populations and diagnoses in both controlled and real-world scenarios, and greater symptom improvement was observed in trials that included ketone monitoring. Improvements in anxiety were also observed in most studies, but with less consistency than depressive symptoms.While many of these studies weren't originally designed to treat depression or anxiety, the consistent improvements associated with verified ketosis as well as the larger effect seen in “very low carbohydrate” diets compared to just “low carbohydrate” diets, tell us that ketogenic therapy for depression warrants further investigation. And when we combine the findings with the results of another recent additional study on keto for depression (not included in the analysis), we can't help but wonder how many people could benefit from ketogenic therapy.In this video, Dr. Bret Scher breaks down:What the JAMA Psychiatry paper actually reviewedHow ketosis may support mood and brain functionKey findings from both randomized and non-randomized trialsHow measuring ketosis was associated with better depression improvementsSafety considerations and medication interactions to watch forThis JAMA review highlights growing scientific interest in ketogenic therapy for serious mental illness, driven by early scientific evidence and thousands of individuals worldwide reporting significant improvements in mental health with ketogenic therapy.Looking for more information on ketogenic therapy for depression?

Food noise, hunger and cravings are often treated as interchangeable, but they arise from different biological and psychological systems. In this episode, Mikki explains how physiological hunger develops gradually in response to the body's energy needs, while cravings are shorter, cue-driven urges for specific foods. Food noise is different again: a persistent background hum of food-related thoughts linked to reward circuitry, rumination and heightened responsiveness to food cues.Mikki explores why GLP-1 medications can dramatically quiet food noise, how stress, poor sleep and highly palatable foods can amplify it, and why intuitive eating may improve calmness around food without necessarily producing fat loss. She also outlines practical strategies, including improving protein and fibre intake, reducing easy access to trigger foods, addressing stress and sleep, and recognising when medical support may be appropriate.Topics coveredThe biological differences between hunger, cravings and food noiseWhy food noise feels intrusive and repetitiveHow GLP-1 medications affect food reward pathwaysThe role of stress, sleep and ultra-processed foodsPractical strategies for reducing appetite-related noise Contact Mikki:https://mikkiwilliden.com/https://www.facebook.com/mikkiwillidennutritionhttps://www.instagram.com/mikkiwilliden/https://linktr.ee/mikkiwillidenNZ listeners - save 10% off Calocurb by using the code Mikkipedia10 at www.calocurb.co.nzSave 20% on all Nuzest Products WORLDWIDE with the code MIKKI at www.nuzest.co.nz, www.nuzest.com.au or www.nuzest.comCurranz supplement: MIKKI saves you 25% at www.curranz.co.nz or www.curranz.co.uk off your first order

Can women improve fat burning and metabolic health without keto, extreme fasting, or restrictive dieting?In this episode of the Wise Divine Women Podcast, Dana Irvine welcomes health and lifestyle coach, podcaster, author, and business consultant Jenn Trepeck for a practical conversation about women's metabolism, blood sugar, fasting, functional nutrition, and sustainable wellness.Jenn shares how her own weight-management journey inspired her transition from business into health coaching. After learning the nutrition information many of us were never taught, she was able to change her relationship with food and move beyond chronic dieting.Together, Dana and Jenn explore why fat loss is not simply about eating less and exercising more. Blood sugar, insulin, muscle mass, stress, sleep, hydration, minerals, meal timing, and mindset all influence how the body uses and stores energy.Jenn explains why restrictive diets such as keto may not be sustainable or supportive for every woman. Instead, she encourages women to build a strong health foundation, listen to their body's signals, and create habits that allow flexibility, nourishment, and joy.How women can burn fat without ketoHow blood sugar and insulin affect fat storageWhy chronic under-eating may slow progressThe relationship between stress and metabolismWhy muscle supports metabolic health and longevityFasting considerations for womenThe importance of hydration and mineralsBiohacking versus Jenn's concept of “biostacking”How to build realistic and flexible wellness habitsWhy accountability and small wins matterHow to rebuild trust with your bodyBlood sugar balance is essential for metabolic health. Balanced meals containing protein, fiber, healthy fats, and quality carbohydrates can support steadier energy while reducing cravings and blood sugar crashes.Eating less is not always better. When the body senses ongoing restriction or stress, it may conserve energy rather than release stored fuel.Fasting is not one-size-fits-all. A woman's stress levels, sleep, activity, hormones, menstrual cycle, and overall nutrition should be considered before extending fasting windows.Jenn also introduces biostacking, the practice of layering foundational habits that work together. Hydration, balanced meals, movement, sleep, stress support, and mindset may create better long-term results than relying on one complicated wellness hack.Most importantly, lasting health does not require perfection. Flexibility and consistency are what make healthy habits sustainable.00:00 – Jenn's wellness journey02:20 – Listening to the body instead of diets05:30 – Burning fat without keto07:01 – Blood sugar, insulin, and fat storage10:54 – Under-eating, stress, and metabolism15:04 – Rebuilding trust with your body17:03 – Muscle, fat, and fuel storage19:05 – Fasting for women20:54 – Biohacking and biostacking23:48 – Building a health foundation27:05 – Hydration and minerals31:58 – Creating a flexible wellness plan34:04 – Celebrating progress35:59 – Closing thoughts and guest linksShe is the host of Salad With a Side of Fries and the author of Uncomplicating Wellness, a practical, science-informed guide designed to help people cut through wellness confusion and trust their bodies again.Website: https://saladwithasideoffries.comPodcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/salad-with-a-side-of-fries/id1476796444Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jentrepickBook: Uncomplicating WellnessFor support with hormones, metabolism, breast health, digestion, and whole-body wellness, visit DanaIrvine.com and book a Health Clarity Call.Subscribe to the Wise Divine Women Podcast, leave a review, and share this episode with a woman who is ready to stop fighting her body and start understanding it.

Have you ever asked yourself: should I do Keto? Is white rice good for me? Am I eating too many carbohydrates? If so, then this episode of The Food Chain is for you. Carbohydrate-rich foods are everywhere and they're delicious. But are they good for us? Carbs have a reputation for spiking our blood sugar and making us fat. But is that reputation deserved? Ruth Alexander talks to Javier Gonzalez, Professor of Nutrition and Metabolism at the University of Bath in England and US-based dietitian Julie Stefanski from the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics to find out whether we've been approaching carbohydrates all wrong. Plus: are there some populations who need to think more carefully about carbs than others? Dr Nelum Dharmapriya thinks so. She's an Australian family doctor with a special interest in metabolic health in South Asian populations. She advises her patients to make some tweaks to the traditional South Asian carbohydrate-rich diet and says it can be done without losing heritage and identity.If you would like to get in touch with the show, please email: thefoodchain@bbc.co.ukProduced by Lexy O'Connor and Beatrice Pickup.(Image: A woman stares over her sunglasses as she slurps pasta from a fork in a sunlit garden.Credit: Getty images/BBC)

389: Is eating right after your workout causing digestive issues? What about "pre-workout" fuel? Is that really just a hoax from the fitness industry to sell you more stuff to consume?

I'm delighted to reconnect with my dear friend Ben Azadi today, in honor of his newly revised book, Keto Flex. Ben is a leading authority on metabolic health, an international Keystone speaker, and the New York Times best-selling author of Metabolic Freedom. In today's conversation, we discuss why women fail on keto. We examine how women's menstrual cycles and various life stages influence both the ketogenic diet and intermittent fasting, and the importance of coming out of ketosis and incorporating feast days. We explain what the Randall cycle is, why we need to be finely tuned to it, how to support healthy cortisol regulation, particularly the HPA axis, and tools to determine whether we are balanced within the autonomic nervous system, including heart rate variability, sleep, and whether our glucose and ketones are within range. We also explore the effects of anti-nutrients and elimination diets, and Ben shares his approach for women who feel keto hasn't worked for them, explaining why keto should be viewed as a process rather than a diet. This is, as always, a truly invaluable conversation with my dear friend Ben Azadi. Stay tuned, as we will also be offering giveaways to listeners of Ben's new book, Keto Flex. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: Various factors that could influence how women respond to a ketogenic diet How women need to adjust keto and fasting according to their menstrual cycle, perimenopause, and postmenopausal years, rather than continuously following the same approach Why Ben encourages women to have intentional feast days instead of remaining in ketosis indefinitely  What a feast day looks like,  and how it differs from a cheat day Why fasting should be adapted to how well your body tolerates stress Factors that can help to determine whether fasting is working for you Why you should adjust your training intensity and focus more on recovery as you get older How a temporary carnivore elimination diet can help identify foods your body doesn't tolerate Why Ben views keto as a metabolic process rather than a diet, and why he prioritizes lifestyle before medication Bio: Ben Azadi Ben Azadi, FDN-P, is a leading authority on metabolic health, an international keynote speaker, and the New York Times bestselling author of Metabolic Freedom. After facing his own health challenges, Ben transformed his life in 2008—losing 80 pounds and stepping into metabolic freedom. That turning point sparked a global mission: to help 1 billion people break free from physical and mental obesity through education, not medication. With 18+ years in the health and wellness space, Ben is now leading a bold 10-year initiative to naturally reverse type 2 diabetes in 1 million people. Through his work, Ben has reached millions worldwide and personally coached thousands to reclaim their health. His audience includes nearly 3M+ on digital platforms, more than 1M YouTube subscribers with over 100M views, and his top-ranked podcast, The Ben Azadi Show, which has surpassed 100 million downloads.

Krishna Kaliannan wanted to start a tech company but failed at every attempt. On the side, he was teaching himself how to cook with high-protein, low-sugar ingredients. Not just out of interest, but out of necessity. As a teenager, Krishna had been diagnosed with diabetes and epilepsy, meaning he adopted a keto diet long before it was trendy. Krishna's home experiments with pea powder and monk fruit eventually became Catalina Crunch, one of the country's most popular high-protein, low-carb breakfast cereals and snacks.
