How mindset, hunger management, and practical tools can make fasting easier and more sustainable. Episode #235

There is something incredibly liberating that happens when you realize your genes are not a life sentence. We have all been told that if a gene runs in your family, you're destined to live out the same story. Celiac. MTHFR. Hashimoto's. Breast cancer genes. We're taught to brace ourselves instead of learning how to influence the environment those genes live in. When the gut is overwhelmed, the immune system stays in a reactive state, and in that environment certain genes become more expressive than they would in a balanced body. And as the gut heals and the immune system steadies, those expressions often soften again.When we move through life in the energy of fearing our bodies, or resenting the parts of us that feel complicated or confusing, it creates a disconnect. Not just within us, but within our children. They feel it. They feel the way we brace around certain symptoms. They feel the heaviness we carry when we believe something is wrong with us, or wrong with them. Our energy teaches them what to believe about their own bodies, the world around them, and what is possible or impossible.If your child has a gene variant that society labels as undesirable, the most healing thing you can offer them is not fear. It's acceptance. It's steadiness. It's the belief that their body is not broken. Because when you hold that belief, they learn to hold it too.Your body is not something you need to fear. Your child's body is not something to fix. Every single part of you was designed on purpose. Every one of your gene variants is a page in your story. And when certain genes express, it is an invitation. It is your body communicating with you and bringing you back into alignment so you can show up in your life as the best version of you.. It is your body asking you to come closer, not pull away.When you view your body through this lens, everything shifts. You stop battling yourself. You stop bracing for what might happen. You begin partnering with your body instead of fearing it. And this is where your deepest power lives. In relationship. In understanding. In the environment you create on the inside.Your genes respond to you. They respond to the way you live, the way you nourish yourself, the way you support your gut and your nervous system, the way you speak to yourself, the way you choose to show up every day. And the more safety and nourishment you bring into your life, the more your genes settle into the expression that serves you.This is the freedom of gene expression. This is the empowerment that no lab report can ever take away from you. Thanks for listening!

A new clinical analysis based on the COcoa Supplement and Multivitamin Outcomes Study (COSMOS) found that older adults taking a daily cocoa extract supplement saw an 8.4% annual drop in high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), a key marker of chronic inflammation The supplement provided 500 milligrams of cocoa flavanols daily, including 80 milligrams of (-)-epicatechin, which is the same bioactive compound found naturally in cacao Researchers said this anti-inflammatory effect may help explain a 27% lower risk of cardiovascular mortality previously observed in the larger COSMOS trial Taking a cocoa flavanol supplement appears to support vascular and immune health by calming NF-κB signaling and improving endothelial function Unlike dark chocolate, standardized cocoa extract supplements are free of sugar and fat, delivering clinically studied doses in capsule form

Confusion around omega-3, seed oils and the omega-6:3 ratio has fuelled major misconceptions. In this episode, Angela speaks with leading researcher Dr William Harris to clarify what the evidence really shows about omega-6 fats, seed oils and long-chain omega-3s - and why much popular advice is outdated. They explore why the omega-6:3 ratio doesn't predict inflammation, why EPA/DHA deficiency is so common, and how omega-3 status affects mental health, pregnancy, cognition and cardiovascular resilience.

Send us a textHow dietary polyunsaturated fats, especially omega-6 from seed oils, influence inflammation & heart health.Topics Discussed:Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs): Omega-6 from seed oils like safflower and corn can convert to pro-inflammatory molecules, while omega-3s produce resolving ones; imbalance biases toward chronic inflammation.Inflammation regulation: Acute inflammation aids healing but requires active “on” and “off” signals from lipid mediators; chronic inflammation arises from excess omega-6, delaying resolution.Heart health & diet: High omega-6 diets worsen post-heart attack outcomes in mice by elevating pro-inflammatory lipids.Evolution & historical context: PUFAs are essential but naturally balanced in pre-industrial diets; modern processing skews ratios, contributing to diseases, as shown in early rat experiments needing minimal fats for survival.Aging & lifestyle factors: Excess omega-6 exacerbates inflammation in older mice; sleep, exercise, and balanced fats are crucial for metabolic health and enzyme function in processing lipids.Cannabis & omega-6 interaction: In mice on high omega-6 diets, CBD-rich cannabis smoke reaches the heart quickly, suppresses immune response, and weakens cardiac strain, unlike in balanced-diet controls.Genetic models: FAT-1 mice converting omega-6 to omega-3 show better healing and neuroprotection; FAT-2 mice doing the opposite exhibit liver fibrosis and metabolic issues, highlighting omega-6 excess harms.Practical Takeaways:Balance omega-6 and omega-3 intake by reducing seed oils in processed foods and increasing sources like fish or algae to support inflammation resolution and heart health.Monitor and adjust fat intake with age, as older individuals are more sensitive to omega-6 excess leading to immune dysregulation.Avoid combining high omega-6 diets with smoking, as it may impair immune and cardiac responses based on animal data.About the guest: Ganesh Halade, PhD is a cardiovascular scientist and associate professor at the University of South Florida Morsani College of Medicine.*Not medical advice.Support the showAffiliates: Lumen device to optimize your metabolism for weight loss or athletic performance.

Welcome to my podcast. I am Doctor Warrick Bishop, and I want to help you to live as well as possible for as long as possible. I'm a practising cardiologist, best-selling author, keynote speaker, and the creator of The Healthy Heart Network. I have over 20 years as a specialist cardiologist and a private practice of over 10,000 patients. Dr. Warrick Bishop, a cardiologist and CEO of the Healthy Heart Network, discusses the importance of understanding inflammation for overall health. He explains that while acute inflammation is a beneficial response to injury, chronic low-grade inflammation is linked to serious health issues like heart disease, Alzheimer's, type 2 diabetes, and cancer. Causes of chronic inflammation include modern lifestyle factors such as highly processed foods, visceral fat (fat surrounding organs), sedentary behavior, poor sleep, stress, and environmental toxins. Gingivitis is also mentioned as a common chronic infection that can contribute to inflammation. Detecting inflammation can be done through specific blood tests like high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (HS CRP) and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), though general markers like high triglycerides, low HDL, insulin resistance, and increased waist circumference can also be indicators.

This week, we kick off a 4-part series on the #1 killer in America by talking about the problem of Cardiovascular Disease.   In this episode, you'll discover:—How Cardiovascular Disease was identified as the #1 killer back in the 1950's and is STILL the #1 killer today, which Dr. Prather says "raises some questions".—The two top competing theories about the underlying cause of Heart Disease among researchers back in the 1970's.  And why Dr. Prather believes the winning theory of Cholesterol as the main cause is wrong.—The dangerous side effects of anti-cholesterol Statin drugs and why patients come to Dr. Prather seeking alternatives. —How Cholesterol is in our bodies for healing and is "there to save your life".  And the connection between those who live over the age of 100 and an overall Cholesterol level of 300.—The Cardiac C-Reactive Protein Test that is "probably the best indicator of whether you're going to have a heart attack or not". —The four main things Dr. Prather says are the real cause of Cardiovascular Disease:  Inflammation, Oxygenation and Nutrient Deprivation,  Electrical Conduction Disruption from Nerve and Mineral Issues, and Food Allergies.—How Inflammation is the cause of Vascular Disease.  And how that Inflammation increases when you try to "artificially" lower Cholesterol levels. —Why the Coxsackie B Virus is so prevalent in Indianapolis and can lead to Cardiovascular Disease. —How the Atlas Orthogonal Chiropractic Adjustment can have a bigger effect on Hypertension than Prescription High Blood Pressure Medication. —Why Dr. Prather says "the heart can actually regenerate in an amazing type of way" and that he did not even expect to see the things he has seen in his office with all the positive changes in patients. http://www.TheVoiceOfHealthRadio.comReceive exclusive bonus content as a member of our Voice Of Health Patreon Community:https://www.patreon.com/cw/VoiceofHealthPodcast

Leave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy!Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1856"Our body's tissues get littered with these senescent cells spewing out inflammation" - Dr. Michael GregerDr. Michael Greger walks through one of the most fascinating discoveries in aging research: your cells are supposed to divide about 50 times, then release inflammatory signals so your immune system can clear them out. It's a brilliant protective mechanism against cancer. But here's what's quietly sabotaging your health: as you age, your immune system starts losing its ability to remove these cells. They pile up in your tissues, pumping out inflammation day after day, which is why your blood markers for inflammation climb with every passing year. Scientists call it "inflammaging." These zombie cells are literally sitting in your body right now, actively contributing to the chronic inflammation driving disease and aging.The game-changer? Scientists tested dozens of drugs to clear these cells, but they had brutal side effects. Then they found three compounds in everyday foods that actually work: fisetin in strawberries, quercetin in red onions, and piperlongumine in long pepper. Dr. Greger shares the research showing people experiencing measurable benefits from eating as little as a teaspoon of chopped onions or a handful of fresh strawberries daily. He explains exactly why red onions beat white onions, why he personally switched from blackberries to strawberries despite their lower antioxidant content, and where to find long pepper to add to your diet. This isn't about taking another supplement or following a restrictive protocol. It's about understanding what's actually aging your body at the cellular level and using specific, accessible foods to fight back.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Nutritionist Leyla Muedin details a study on the effects of vitamins C and E supplementation in older women with sarcopenia. The study, published in the journal Medicine, found that combining 1000 mg of vitamin C and 335 mg of vitamin E with a 12-week resistance training program significantly improved muscle mass, strength, and certain blood parameters compared to a placebo group. The benefits were attributed to the alleviation of oxidative stress and inflammation. Leyla underscores the importance of adequate animal protein intake to optimize resistance training outcomes.

Six years ago we had John Newman on GeriPal to talk about Geroscience (Song choice Who Wants to Live Forever by Queen, perfect selection).  John explained the basics of geroscience, what is it, what are the key theories in geroscience, what is senescence, why people who provide clinical care for older adults should care about geroscience, and potential therapeutics like metformin and rapamycin. Today we bring on three rising stars in Geroscience, Brian Andonian, Sara LaHue, Joe Hippensteel, to talk about one of the key pillars of Geroscience: inflammaging.  We use this terrific paper they published in Geroscience as a springboard.  We discuss: What is inflammaging? Chronic progressive low grade inflammation with aging. I try to get one of them to stake a claim that inflammaging should be the organizing principle of geroscience How does inflammaging operate in rheumatologic conditions like rheumatoid arthritis (Brian), neurologic conditions like traumatic brain injury  (Sara), and critical illness (Joe).  We talk about Post-ICU Syndrome (PICS) and relate inflammaging to our prior podcast with Wes Ely about his book Every Deep Drawn Breath.  We also talk about how inflammaging is not just a factor in chronic conditions like diabetes or inflammatory bowel disease, which make intuitive sense, but also in acute conditions, like sepsis or traumatic brain injury in older adults. The state of the science on clinical and research tests for inflammaging - ready for prime time?  What is the state of the science for therapeutics? Why should some anti-inflammatory therapeutics make us nervous in frail older adults? Inflammation developed evolutionarily for a reason. E.g. tthink of drugs that wipe out the immune system. The outsized discrepancy between non-FDA products marketed to consumers as anti-inflammaging and the state of academic Geroscience.  We announce GeriPal's new lineup of skin care anti-inflammaging products! We discuss lifestyle interventions such as exercise, meditation, caloric restriction and intermittent fasting, and strength/resistance training. We recognize the efforts of ClinStar in bringing together multidisciplinary aging researchers to advance aging research, including our guests. And what a joy to sing Billy Joel!  Here's a link to the documentary I mentioned, which is on my list to see. -Alex Smith

Fasting is everywhere these days, but most traditional fasting approaches are too harsh when you have Hashimoto's. Long stretches without food can feel destabilizing, draining, and completely unrealistic for a thyroid that is already under stress. However there is a different approach called fasting mimicking that creates the deeper cellular benefits of fasting while you are still eating real food. Fasting mimicking has been heavily researched for decades and is designed to activate the same fasting pathways that support things like metabolism, energy, longevity, and overall cellular renewal. Instead of pushing the body into stress, it uses precise nutrients that keep the fasting response going while still providing nourishment, which makes it far more compatible with the needs of someone living with Hashimoto's. It also offers an approachable way to support weight, inflammation, and metabolic health without cutting calories to extremes or spiking cortisol.This is the kind of information that changes how you think about fasting altogether and incredibly relevant if regular fasting has ever made you feel worse instead of better. This episode is a must listen, and if you want to try fasting mimicking for yourself, you can do that here and please use code "FASTING" for 20% OFF!For full show notes, please see:https://innatopiler.com/podcasts/203-fasting-thyroid-hashimotos-renee-fitton/Get ThyroLove - the first all in one bottle multi-nutrient comprehensive formula designed specifically for those with Thyroid Autoimmunity at ThyroLove.com - use code “Podcast” to get 10% off and free shipping For more information about everything Hashimoto's please visit InnaTopiler.comIf you are struggling to lose weight with Hashimoto's, Inna has a 10 day plan just for you at InnaTopiler.com/jumpstartIf you need help with fatigue or brain fog with Hashimoto's, please check out Inna's 9 Day Exhaustion Solution at innatopiler.com/energyIf you don't yet know your thyroid type, please be sure you sign up for Inna's next free training atInnaTopiler.com/zoomcall

Want deeper sleep without hacks or hype? We unpack the real reasons you wake up at night and show how light exposure, dinner timing, and cortisol-insulin patterns quietly decide whether your body repairs or unravels. I walk through the nightly “window” when cortisol dips, why bright rooms and screens suppress melatonin, and how late meals trigger blood sugar crashes that jolt you awake. You'll learn simple, high-impact steps: get a morning light signal, dim evening brightness below 10 lux, eat earlier with balanced protein and carbs, and keep your bedroom cold, dark, and quiet.From there, we zoom out to what great sleep actually does. Your brain's glymphatic system flushes waste, mitochondria refill ATP, growth hormone rises to rebuild tissue, and the immune system coordinates smarter defenses. Slow wave sleep consolidates memory; REM helps you process emotions and creativity. When sleep slips, insulin resistance and inflammation climb the next day. I share practical questions to audit your routine—light, screens, caffeine, alcohol, dinner composition, temperature—and how to spot hot flashes, reflux, or frequent urination as metabolic clues rather than random symptoms.We then tackle training that supports, not sabotages, recovery. Most long, high-rep sessions and chronic cardio elevate cortisol without provoking adaptation. The better path is training with intention: progressive overload in the 5 to 6 rep range, shorter focused lifts, and brief sprint intervals with full recovery. Pair that with steady walking, mobility work, and cycle-aware planning to respect hormonal shifts. Watch your biofeedback: stubborn soreness beyond 48 hours, poor sleep, frequent illness, puffiness, mood swings, or menstrual changes all point to under-recovery. When you let sleep lead, the gains finally stick—stronger muscles, steadier metabolism, clearer mind.If this helped, follow the show, share it with someone who needs better nights, and leave a review so more people can find it.

Episode Highlights From KatieThe concept of the “Four Horsemen” of chronic disease and why 85% of people over 50 die from one of these conditions.What these diseases share in common: long, silent development over years or decades before symptoms appear.Why traditional screening often catches disease too late. And how new data and AI tools can identify risk far earlier.The difference between 10-year risk scoring and lifetime risk (and why most people never receive the latter).Why cancer screening is age-based rather than risk-based and how this overlooks key early indicators.How AI-driven assessments like Catch use massive datasets to calculate disease risk more accurately than traditional methods.What I learned from my own cancer risk assessment and why it shifted my thinking about proactive health.Why foundational lifestyle inputs (sunlight, vegetables, oily fish, hydration, minerals, sleep, movement, and avoiding chronic inflammation) are more powerful than supplements in reducing long-term disease risk.The connection between allergies, immune signaling, inflammation, and long-term disease patterns.How early lifestyle patterns influence future metabolic, cardiovascular, and cognitive health.Simple, data-backed ways to lower lifelong risk starting today without fear, overwhelm, or chasing expensive solutions.Resources MentionedCatch

The Revolutionary Role of the Vagus Nerve in Bioelectronic Medicine: Dr. Kevin J. Tracey, president and CEO at the Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research and author of "The Great Nerve: The New Science of the Vagus Nerve and How to Harness Its Healing Reflexes,” details the historical context and recent advancements in harnessing the power of the vagus nerve to control inflammation without causing immunosuppression. The conversation explores the journey from early experimental stages to the recent FDA approval for treating rheumatoid arthritis through vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) devices. He also delves into the potential applications of VNS in treating other inflammatory conditions, mood disorders, and the science behind non-invasive lifestyle techniques and commercially available devices. The episode provides valuable insights into the future of bioelectronic medicine and its potential to revolutionize medical treatments.

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Dr. Kevin J. Tracey, president and CEO at the Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research and author of "The Great Nerve: The New Science of the Vagus Nerve and How to Harness Its Healing Reflexes.”

Dr Joseph Dituri, also known as Dr. Deep Sea, is a biomedical engineer, former U.S. Navy saturation diver, and professor who lived underwater for 100 days as part of Project Neptune— a groundbreaking scientific mission to study how extended high-pressure environments affect the human body and brain. During his time beneath the sea, Dr. Dituri and everyone who visited him experienced something extraordinary — their deep and REM sleep doubled, reaching an unheard-of 60–66% each night. SHOWNOTES:

Millions of women in their 30s–50s are being told they're “depressed” when their brains and hormones are simply changing. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Suzanne Gilberg-Lenz to unpack the truth about midlife mood shifts, rage, and the hormonal fluctuations that mimic depression but aren't the same. We break down the science of perimenopause, why women are so often misdiagnosed, and how decades of excluding women from research left major gaps in understanding how estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone shape the brain. Dr. Gilberg-Lenz reveals how hormonal changes—starting up to ten years before menopause—can transform mood, cognition, and stress, and how modern science is finally catching up to just how powerfully hormones influence the mind. About the guest:Dr. Suzanne Gilberg-Lenz is a board-certified OB/GYN and integrative women's health expert who blends conventional medicine with Ayurvedic training. A USC-trained physician with a residency at Cedars-Sinai, she supports women from adolescence through menopause and is the author of Menopause Bootcamp (Harper Wave, 2022). Her work focuses on demystifying midlife, challenging ageism in healthcare, and empowering women with science-based guidance.

In this episode, Dr. Jockers and Vanessa Spina break down new human research showing why high protein doesn't block autophagy when calories are low. You'll learn how this changes everything we've believed about protein timing, fasting, and cellular repair. The conversation also reveals why prioritizing protein can accelerate fat loss without sacrificing muscle.   You'll hear how protein impacts appetite, hormones, and metabolic flexibility—and why many people overeat simply because they're under-consuming essential amino acids. Vanessa explains the protein leverage effect and how it naturally reduces cravings, stabilizes blood sugar, and makes eating "effortlessly" satisfying. These insights can help you rethink how you build your daily meals.   You'll discover why certain fasting styles can increase visceral fat loss, support hormonal balance, and boost performance. Expect a mix of science, real-world application, and surprising findings you may not have heard before.     In This Episode:  00:00 Introduction and Exciting New Study 00:21 Welcome and Guest Introduction 00:30 Deep Dive into the New Study 01:52 Vanessa Spina's Expertise and Background 05:47 Interview with Vanessa Spina Begins 06:15 Discussion on Protein Absorption Study 14:04 Personal Experiences with Protein and Fasting 16:55 Debunking Protein Myths 18:10 Nutrition Principles and Protein Prioritization 22:23 Ketones, Satiety, and Inflammation 27:07 Balancing Hormones and Stress 31:17 Understanding Autophagy and Protein Intake 32:35 The Importance of Human Trials in Research 35:11 Study on High Protein Fasting Mimicking Diet 38:38 Results and Implications of the Study 42:18 Personal Experiences with Protein-Sparing Modified Fasting 45:32 Practical Tips for Implementing Protein-Sparing Modified Fasting 57:54 Comparing Different Fasting Approaches 01:01:13 Conclusion and Final Thoughts   Hydration is one of the fastest ways to boost your energy, sharpen your focus, curb cravings, and even improve the look and feel of your skin — but water alone isn't enough.

Send us a textHave you ever stumbled into something that feels way bigger than you expected? That is exactly what happened with today's guest, Paul Kemp, multi-award-winning documentary filmmaker and creator of The Ozempic Effect: Beyond the Waistline. And the wild part? My actual voice opens his film. Yep, somehow I accidentally narrated his sizzle reel and did not even know it. Life is weird.In this episode, we go way past “Is Ozempic good or bad?” and dive into what might happen when up to 40 percent of North Americans are on GLP-1 drugs. We are talking changes to restaurants, grocery stores, alcohol companies, airlines, fashion, sex, gambling, online shopping, and even dementia and inflammation in the brain.Paul opens up about his own assumptions going into the film. He thought it was just a shortcut at first. That shifted after hearing story after story from people who finally felt free from food noise. One guy literally said that chocolate-covered almonds became invisible to him. Imagine that.We also get into some of the more complicated stuff, like black-market peptides, the pressure on the body-positive movement, and the question no one really wants to ask: if these drugs take away our vices, what replaces them? Are we becoming healthier, or just differently disconnected?And then, at the end, Paul turns the tables and asks me if I would take a GLP-1 drug. You will want to hear that answer.This episode is not about telling you what to do. It is about waking up to the fact that a massive cultural shift is already happening and whether we like it or not, it is changing how humans interact with food, pleasure, and even each other.So now I am throwing it back to you. Is ease a bad thing, or have we just been conditioned to believe suffering equals worth?What's Inside:How GLP-1 drugs work beyond weight loss, including brain health and inflammationThe impact on restaurants, alcohol, fashion, and societyWhy shame still exists around Ozempic and so-called shortcutsThe surprising effect on addiction, sex drive, and impulse controlA little pause to think about this…What is “riching” right to you? Buying the most expensive bag OR being so stinking rich you can give away more money than you keep? Changing the world and your life. Look, that could be you.

Description: Psoriatic disease affects far more than just the skin. Hear leading dermatologist Dr. April Armstrong and Dr. Benoît Guérrette discuss this and more with Jensen, a patient advocate. Psoriatic disease affects not only the skin but it can impact confidence, emotional and social well-being, and daily life. In this episode, join moderator Dr. Guy Eakin, Chief Scientific and Medical Officer at NPF, as we explore the disconnect between clinical classifications of psoriasis and what patients experience in real-life with leading dermatologist Dr. April Armstrong, Dr. Benoît Guérrette, Vice President of Dermatology & Rheumatology at Takeda, and Jensen, a NPF patient advocate and former Lead Youth Ambassador. Listen as we address the need for a more nuanced approach to classifying disease severity that accounts for the holistic needs of psoriatic disease, as well as share insights into how advocacy and awareness can drive change in treatment access and care standards.  The intent of this episode is to identify how clinical severity classifications of psoriasis are evolving to meet the needs of those who live with the disease and how that change impacts overall management. This episode is sponsored by Takeda. Timestamps: (0:00) Intro to Psoriasis Uncovered and guest welcome to dermatologist Dr. April Armstrong, Vice President of Takeda, Dr. Benoît Guérette, and patient advocate Jensen, who discuss the unmet needs of people with moderate psoriasis and how as a community we can better serve those living with the disease. 2:22 How health care providers and the biopharmaceutical industry are coming together to address systemic eligibility and the unmet needs of people living with psoriasis. 4:25 Quality of life should be included when assessing clinical severity in psoriasis and identification of appropriate treatment choices. 6:52 The impact of misdiagnosis, inappropriate treatment, and effect on high impact sites can be life- altering. 8:30 How appropriate treatment and knowledge can make all the difference when diagnosed with plaque psoriasis.  9:40 Views on the psoriasis disease classification system and how it's evolving to include real life impact from physical and emotional needs, to more personalized care for those living with psoriasis, even when small body surface areas are involved. Severity isn't defined by skin coverage alone. 12:38 What's needed to prioritize the care and outcomes of people living with psoriasis. 14:18  The future of management and care for psoriatic disease. 15:53  "My skin tells a story." Wisdom from what I wish I had known previously. 16:52  Moving closer to care that truly reflects the lives and needs of those who live with psoriasis. Key Takeaways: ·       Severity of psoriasis isn't defined by skin coverage or body surface area (BSA) alone. The impact on quality of life should also be considered in the assessment, selection of treatment, and management of the disease.  ·       The psoriasis disease classification system is evolving to be more of a patient centered approach.  Many clinicians are now using the International Psoriasis Council (IPC) or 2 bucket approach to identify whether someone should receive a topical or systemic treatment based on location and response to treatment, as well as impact on quality of life.  ·       With continued research and  development, the next 5 to 10 years could see a shift in effective treatment options while also treating sooner to initiate better outcomes for people living with psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. Guest Bios:   April Armstrong, M.D., M.P.H. is an internationally renowned dermatologist and clinical researcher who is a Professor and Chief of Dermatology at the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) where she specializes in inflammatory skin diseases such as psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, and hidradenitis suppurativa (HS). Dr. Armstrong is also the Co-Director for Network Resources at the UCLA Clinical and Translational Research Institute. She has conducted over 150 clinical trials and published over 350 high impact articles in scientific journals. Dr. Armstrong holds multiple leadership positions including the immediate Past Chair of the National Psoriasis Foundation Medical Board, Co-President of the Group for Research and Assessment of Psoriasis and Psoriatic Arthritis (GRAPPA), councilor for the International Psoriasis Council, and board member for the International Dermatology Outcome Measures and the American Academy of Dermatology.  Benoît Guérette, Ph.D. is an accomplished leader in medical affairs with extensive experience across academia and the pharmaceutical industry. Since March 2025, Dr. Guérette has served as Vice President of Dermatology and Rheumatology US Medical Affairs at Takeda Pharmaceutical. Prior to joining Takeda, he held several strategic and leadership roles at various pharmaceutical companies, including overseeing clinical development, global and U.S. medical affairs, global access & pricing, translational sciences and more. Before transitioning to the industry, Dr. Guérette was an Associate Professor of Immunology at Laval University, leading research in cancer immunology. He holds a Ph.D. in Medicine, Microbiology, and Immunology from Laval University and completed postdoctoral studies in Inflammation and Immunology at  Harvard Medical School.  Jensen is a volunteer and former Lead Youth Ambassador for the National Psoriasis Foundation. Jensen developed psoriasis at age 7 but wasn't formally diagnosed until age 14 being misdiagnosed along the way, trying different management approaches that were ineffective. She was a competitive swimmer from elementary through high school and in the last 2 years of high school played lacrosse. Upon finishing high school she attended college becoming a registered nurse in an intensive care unit. Jensen wants "youth living with psoriatic disease to feel a  community that is behind them and with them every step of the way. I really want to be able to make a difference in a way that would've helped me as a child when I was diagnosed."

Week four of the Ending Well series lands right at the halfway mark. This episode is a look back over a three-year road (starting in 2022) of how God helped me fight inflammation, feel like myself again, and regain my "glow." This is not a weight-loss talk, not a quick-fix list, and not medical advice. It's a redemption story about healing from the inside out — spiritually, emotionally, and physically. "Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers." — 3 John 1:2 Key Themes Redemption doesn't just cover salvation; it keeps working through sanctification and healing. Inflammation wasn't just a food problem — it was also a soul and nervous system problem. Real health change is slow, layered, and personal. Your timeline will not look like mine. The glow came as a byproduct of feeling better and living freer, not chasing beauty. Important Disclaimers This episode is descriptive, not prescriptive. Not medical advice. Always talk with a qualified professional for your situation. Do not try to do everything at once. This was a year of foundations plus a total three-year process. One percent better beats perfect overnight. The Story: How the Dominoes Fell 1. August 2022: Stepping Back From Fear-Driven "Crunchy" Culture I was drowning in rules, guilt, and constant fear of what might be harming me. The anxiety and striving became more toxic than the ingredients I was avoiding. First domino: I quit trying to do it all perfectly and started living with grace, budget reality, and peace. Lowering my standards for myself lowered my inflammation. "Come to me, all who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest." — Matthew 11:28 2. October 2022: A Major Boundary With a Toxic Relationship I set a serious boundary with someone whose presence fueled self-hatred. Went no contact for about six months. The inner tape of shame and criticism began to quiet. I learned that giving up self-hatred is profoundly anti-inflammatory. Recommended resource mentioned: When to Walk Away by Gary Thomas (plus podcast interview) "Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life." — Proverbs 4:23 3. Early 2023: Changing How I Worked Out I stopped high-intensity workouts that were spiking cortisol daily. Switched to lifting heavy and slow, more functional strength training. Worked out less, recovered more. Energy improved, inflammation eased, confidence rose. Current favorite: Nourish Move Love workouts on YouTube. Big takeaway: exercise is a gift, not punishment. 4. February to May 2023: Going Gluten-Free and Cutting Back on Alcohol Grain Brain by Dr. David Perlmutter was a turning point. I tried going gluten-free (cold turkey, not ideal but it worked). Brain fog cleared, bloat dropped, inflammation noticeably reduced. Cutting alcohol alongside gluten made a huge difference. I don't need to understand every mechanism to honor what clearly helps my body. Reminder: everyone has a "thing" — gluten, dairy, sugar, alcohol, stress. Find yours with grace. 5. August 2023: Getting Off SSRIs After 15 Years A massive milestone with a full story in episode 267. For me, SSRIs were not helping inflammation or overall vitality anymore. The drop in facial inflammation from August to December was dramatic. I'm not shaming anyone on SSRIs — I was on them a long time. This was my path. "It is for freedom that Christ has set us free." — Galatians 5:1 What Actually Healed Me This part matters: the glow wasn't mainly from products. Lowering impossible expectations Creating boundaries Learning to like myself Getting out of fight-or-flight Moving my body in a gentler way Removing gluten and minimizing alcohol Walking in obedience even when it felt backwards Healing was spiritual and emotional first, physical second. "Be transformed by the renewing of your mind." — Romans 12:2 Simple "Glow Back" Skin Habits These are the practical, easy wins that helped the outside catch up to the inside. Dermaplaning at home Removes dead skin and peach fuzz. Skin care and makeup apply better. Big difference in glow and smoothness. Learn carefully through YouTube tutorials and use a quality razor. Stopping skin picking Picking was aggravating redness and irritation. I prayed about it and replaced the habit. New habit: brush my hair when the urge hits. Asking God for help in small things counts. Sponsor Spotlight: PreBorn A free ultrasound can double a mother's chance of choosing life.

Takeaways to Sit With If you're overwhelmed, start with one domino. God often heals from the root, not just the symptom. Your body listens to your beliefs. Peace, obedience, and self-kindness are deeply practical health tools. The goal isn't prettier; it's freer, healthier, and more whole. Reflective Questions What is one area where fear or perfectionism is inflaming your life? Who or what might need a boundary so you can heal? What small change feels like the next right step, not the whole staircase? How would your health shift if you treated yourself like someone God deeply loves? Closing Encouragement This glow-back story is really a "come back to life" story. It wasn't a sprint; it was obedience in baby steps. If you're in the thick of it today, don't despise the slow fade. God redeems years, bodies, minds, and hearts — and He's patient in the process. "He restores my soul." — Psalm 23:3

Ready to go beyond standard cholesterol panels and track what actually matters? Get your comprehensive performance bloodwork analysis at  witsandweights.com/bloodwork (code VITALITY20 for 20% off)—What if your blood work is missing the markers that truly predict long-term cardiovascular health? Can you build muscle, lose fat, and stay strong after 40 without risking your heart? And which biomarkers, hormones, and peptides actually move the needle for longevity and performance?I bring on Integrative Medicine & Cardiology Physician Dr. Abid Husain into the conversation, and we get into the evidence behind cardiovascular health for lifters, especially if you're focused on body recomp, strength training, weight loss, nutrition, and fitness. We cover the labs most people never get, how inflammation and metabolism shape heart health, and why tracking APOB, CRP, and oxidized LDL matters far more than total cholesterol. We also break down hormone health, HRT safety, muscle building over 40, and the peptides that actually support recovery and longevity.If you care about lifting weights, performance, and living longer with evidence-based fitness, this one gives you a clear roadmap.

This Thanksgiving, take a deep breath with me.

My guest is Dr. Thaïs Aliabadi, MD, board-certified OB/GYN, surgeon and leading expert in women's health. We discuss polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and endometriosis, two very common yet frequently undiagnosed causes of female infertility. Dr. Aliabadi explains the symptoms, underlying causes and evidence-based treatments for both conditions, including supplement and lifestyle interventions. We also discuss breast cancer risk and screening, pregnancy, perimenopause and menopause, and the hormone tests that women should request. This conversation offers empowering, potentially life-changing information for women of all ages to take control of their hormone, reproductive and overall health.
