Send us a text!We know how frustrating it is to do everything “right” on Weight Watchers—sticking to your points, choosing zero-point foods—only to step on the scale and see zero progress. If you've been caught in the cycle of losing a few pounds, gaining it back, and wondering what you're doing wrong, you're not alone.In this episode, we're breaking down why Weight Watchers seems to work at first… then stops. We'll uncover the hidden hormonal reasons your body is resisting weight loss, why zero-point foods aren't really “free,” and how following outdated advice could be making your insulin levels—and your weight—go up.If you've been blaming yourself and thinking you just need to try harder, this conversation will shift your perspective. We'll explain the real science behind sustainable weight loss, especially after 50, and why continuing to rely on point systems could leave you stuck and discouraged for years to come.Listen in to finally understand why what worked before isn't working now—and what you can do to break the cycle for good.Click here to watch the full video now!Resources From This Episode >> Insulin Resistance Diet Blueprint - https://www.zivli.com/blueprint?el=podcast >> Free Low Insulin Food Guide - https://www.zivli.com/ultimatefoodguide?el=podcast >> Join the Zivli Program Waitlist - https://www.zivli.com/join?el=podcast >> Test Your Insulin at Home - https://www.zivli.com/testing?el=podcast Have a question?

This episode originally aired as #395 on 1/13/24. It's an oldie but goodie so we are sharing it again! What is Aged Garlic Extract (A.G.E.) and how is it different from the garlic we eat? Can this one thing actually lower cholesterol, improve insulin resistance, keep bones strong, boost immunity and detoxification, and prevent dementia? We tend to compartmentalize our bodily systems, but they are all connected and the cardiovascular system is at the head of them all. Learn the science behind how A.G.E. can impact all of our systems, how to take it, how much to take, and what the research actually shows, on this episode of Vitality Radio, where Jared interviews Jim LaValle all about Kyolic Aged Garlic Extract. You'll learn its many benefits and how to use it to improve your overall health. Products:Kyolic Aged Garlic ProductsAdditional Information:#278: The Incredible Benefits of Aged Garlic ExtractLipid tests discussed: NMR LipoProfile® TestCardio IQ®Visit the podcast website here: VitalityRadio.comYou can follow @vitalitynutritionbountiful and @vitalityradio on Instagram, or Vitality Radio and Vitality Nutrition on Facebook.

Episode 25:27 How To Prevent, And Reverse, Insulin Resistance If you listened to the last two episodes of the Get Healthy Alabama podcast you learned three “health facts”: 1) High cholesterol does not cause heart disease. Insulin resistance does. 2) Insulin resistance also causes many other disease: Type 2 Diabetes, Alzheimer's, Cancer, PCOS, erectile dysfunction, fatty liver disease, and arthritis. 3) You can tell if you have Insulin Resistance through three blood tests:   - Fasting blood glucose.   - A1 C   - Fasting insulin   An elevated level of any of these is a sign of Insulin Resistance. On this week's episode I teach you how to reverse and correct Insulin Resistance. Specifically, I share four “tools” you can use to help lower your blood sugar and Insulin levels. Four “tools“ that will help you restore your health in a natural way… without the use of drugs. Please give this episode a good listen as Insulin Resistance affects the overwhelming majority of adults in this country. And, as always, please share this episode with a friend.

This episode reveals how fasting is the most powerful tool for preventing cardiovascular disease and reversing metabolic dysfunction that affects 88% of Americans. Dr. Scott and Tommy explain why fasting goes far beyond weight loss to address the root cause of heart disease: insulin resistance and dangerous blood sugar variability. Discover how consistent fasting protocols can dramatically reduce your risk when every 1% increase in A1C levels raises heart problems by 12%, major cardiovascular events by 8%, and heart-related kidney issues by 17%. Learn why diabetics with the highest blood sugar swings face 2.5 times higher heart disease risk - and how fasting flattens these dangerous glucose spikes. The hosts break down how fasting reverses metabolic syndrome (affecting 25% of the population) and helps the 70-80 million undiagnosed pre-diabetics who have normal A1C but dangerously high fasting insulin levels. Understand how fasting prevents the "rust on a bumper" effect of cardiovascular disease that develops slowly over decades. Get specific fasting strategies for reducing glycemic variability, controlling insulin spikes, and using intermittent fasting as cardiovascular protection. This episode reveals why monitoring fasting insulin during your fasting journey is more important than cholesterol panels, and how consistent fasting protocols reverse the inflammatory cascade leading to heart disease, stroke, and metabolic syndrome. Essential for anyone using fasting to prevent cardiovascular disease and optimize metabolic health for life. ⁠⁠⁠Take the NEW FASTING PERSONA QUIZ! - The Key to Unlocking Sustainable Weight Loss With Fasting!⁠⁠⁠⁠ Resources and Downloads: ⁠⁠⁠⁠SIGN UP FOR THE DROP OF THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO BLOOD SUGAR CONTROL⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠GRAB THE OPTIMAL RANGES FOR LAB WORK HERE! - NEW RESOURCE! ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠FREE RESOURCE - DOWNLOAD THE NEW BLUEPRINT TO FASTING FOR FAT LOSS!⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠SLEEP GUIDE DIRECT DOWNLOAD⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠DOWNLOAD THE FASTING TRANSFORMATION JOURNAL HERE!⁠⁠⁠⁠ Partner Links: Get your⁠⁠⁠⁠ FREE BOX OF LMNT⁠⁠⁠⁠ hydration support for the perfect electrolyte balance for your fasting lifestyle with your first purchase⁠⁠⁠⁠ here!⁠⁠⁠⁠ Get ⁠⁠⁠⁠30% off a Keto-Mojo⁠⁠⁠⁠ blood glucose and ketone monitor (discount shown at checkout)! ⁠⁠⁠⁠Click here!⁠⁠⁠⁠ Our Community: Let's continue the conversation.

Episode 25:26 The Signs, Symptoms And Blood Tests That Define Insulin Resistance Believe it or not, there's a really good chance that the cells of your body are Insulin Resistant. That's not good because Insulin Resistance is THE cause of many major chronic conditions. Conditions such as heart disease, fatty liver disease, high blood pressure, stroke, diabetes, cancer, obesity, Alzheimer's, PCOS, erectile dysfunction and infertility. Unfortunately, most doctors know very little about Insulin Resistance. How to identify it or how to treat it. That's not good. The truth is, EVERYONE should know about Insulin Resistance. - What it is. - How to know if you have it. - Steps you can take to reverse it. On this episode I address what Insulin Resistance is and the blood tests you need to have done to see if you have it. It's information that I feel is extremely valuable and should be taught to everyone. So please be sure to give it a good listen and then share it with a friend.  Thanks! ———————- Want to learn more?

In this groundbreaking conversation, "The Conscious Gynecologist" Dr. Andrea Salcedo joins Dr. Philip Ovadia to uncover the profound connection between women's reproductive health and metabolic health. Dr. Salcedo shares startling research showing how insulin resistance impacts everything from PCOS and gestational diabetes to uterine fibroids and gynecologic cancers.You'll learn why the same inflammatory processes that cause heart disease also create uterine fibroids, how pregnancy naturally induces a state of insulin resistance to protect the developing fetus, and why morning sickness serves an important biological function. Dr. Salcedo explains how traditional gynecological approaches often miss the metabolic root causes of women's health issues, leading to band-aid solutions rather than addressing the underlying insulin resistance.With her unique background as both an academic researcher and metabolic health advocate, Dr. Salcedo provides practical insights into how lifestyle changes can dramatically improve gynecological health without relying solely on medications or surgery. The conversation shatters common misconceptions about female health problems and offers a new framework for understanding women's bodies beyond the "just hormones" explanation.Whether you're struggling with reproductive health issues, planning for pregnancy, or simply want to understand the intricacies of female health, this conversation offers vital information that most medical professionals aren't discussing. Listen now to discover why one in three women lose their uterus by age 60 – and what can be done to prevent it.BIG IDEAGynecologic diseases like PCOS, endometriosis, and uterine fibroids aren't just "female hormone problems" – they're manifestations of metabolic dysfunction and insulin resistance that affect the entire body.Andrea Salcedo, DO - Contact InfoWebsite: https://www.consciousgynecology.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/consciousgynecologist/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@consciousgynecologistX: https://x.com/consciousgyneSend Dr. Ovadia a Text Message.

In today's world, many people struggle with weight gain, a slow metabolism, brain fog, and difficulty building muscle, despite healthy diets and exercise. Health expert Sarah Banta says the cause is often in thyroid and liver health. Her insights, shared on a podcast with Wade Lightheart, highlight how these organs regulate metabolism, fat burning, and muscle building. When these organs are not working well due to toxins, stress, or poor nutrition, the body may have trouble losing fat and gaining muscle. Thyroid: Metabolic Master Switch The thyroid controls how the body makes energy. It affects our metabolism, body temperature, fat burning, mental clarity, mood, and hormone balance. Sarah notes that many people might have thyroid issues, even if tests look normal. Symptoms of a struggling thyroid include slow metabolism, fat gain, cold hands and feet, brain fog, fatigue, and muscle loss. Thyroid issues can prevent effective fat burning, no matter the diet or exercise. Liver: Metabolic Role The thyroid and liver work together. The liver converts inactive thyroid hormone (T4) to the active form (T3). If the liver is slow or congested, this conversion suffers, slowing down the thyroid. Modern lifestyles burden the liver with toxins, processed foods, and stress. This can lead to fat gain, slow metabolism, and hormonal imbalances. Liver stress can reduce thyroid and overall metabolic function. Iodine's Essential Role Iodine is important for thyroid function and every cell in the body. Many people are iodine deficient due to depleted soils, microplastics in salt, and competition from other chemicals. Iodine helps produce thyroid hormones, supports brain function, cellular energy, immune defense, and hormonal balance. It also helps detoxify heavy metals. Optimal iodine dosing is needed to overcome deficiency and remove toxins. Liver Detox for Results An overloaded liver can block fat burning, impair thyroid conversion, cause insulin resistance, and interfere with protein absorption. Sarah's approach uses herbs to stimulate bile flow, support detox, break down fatty liver, and optimize metabolism. Key ingredients include Milk Thistle and other herbs that help with liver health. A healthy liver allows the body to burn fat and build muscle safely. In this podcast you'll learn... Why iodine deficiency is a true health crisis. What are the causes of unexplained weight gain are. What the hidden causes of Insulin Resistance are. If you can burn fat and build muscle at the same time. How the spike protein affected our health. How thyroid health affects mental health.   EPISODE RESOURCES: Website Instagram LinkedIn

Episode 25:25 The REAL Cause Of Heart Disease Guess what? The REAL cause of heart disease is NOT high levels of cholesterol. Nor is it a diet high in saturated fat. A diet that includes foods such as meat, eggs, butter and cheese. The REAL cause is this: Insulin Resistance! Yes, Insulin Resistance is the number one cause of heart disease. It's also the best predictor of it. In fact, Insulin Resistance is a much better predictor of heart disease than cholesterol. On this episode I explain why. I also answer the following questions: 1) What is Insulin Resistance? 2) What causes Insulin Resistance? 3) How to know if you have Insulin Resistance? 4) How to prevent/reverse Insulin Resistance? The information on this episode is extremely valuable and should, in my opinion, be taught to everyone. Be sure to give it a good listen and then share it with a friend.

The primary cause of metabolic dysfunction is not carbohydrates themselves but rather the combination of processed "naked" sugars and high linoleic acid seed oils that damage mitochondrial function at a cellular level.KISMETWhile most people focus on limiting carbohydrates to improve metabolic health, the research actually shows that fruit juice and honey can improve insulin sensitivity in some diabetics due to their complex chemical structures that positively influence gut bacteria – completely contradicting conventional wisdom about sugar.EPISODE SUMMARYDr. Paul Saladino shares his evidence-based perspective on the true causes of metabolic dysfunction. Contrary to popular belief, carbohydrates themselves don't cause insulin resistance. Instead, the primary culprits are processed "naked" sugars that disrupt gut bacteria and seed oils high in linoleic acid that damage mitochondrial membranes. These damaged membranes lead to energy production inefficiency at the cellular level, which manifests as various metabolic disorders. Dr. Saladino explains how the standard American diet contains 5-10 times more linoleic acid than our ancestors consumed, primarily from seed oils in processed foods. He argues that returning to single-ingredient foods and specifically reducing linoleic acid intake could rapidly improve metabolic health. The discussion challenges conventional medical wisdom about cholesterol, atherosclerosis, and the treatment of metabolic disorders.NOTABLE QUOTE"I want people to know that I was not taught in medical school the diet was this powerful. And that's probably the most important thing that I can do with my career is just tell people like what you eat and the quality of the foods you eat is everything.

In this eye-opening episode we are talking about the gut issues nobody wants to talk about—IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) and IBD (Inflammatory Bowel Disease). For millions of women, chronic bloating, pain, and unpredictable digestion have become their “normal”—but it doesn't have to be that way. I'm joined by Dietitian Ashley Hurst, founder of Crohn's & Colitis Dietitians, a gut health expert who is on a mission to bring awareness to the root causes of chronic gut inflammation, including stress, food sensitivities, trauma, and even immune dysfunction. Together, we unpack why these conditions are often misunderstood or dismissed—and what real healing can look like. These issues are so commonly paired with a thyroid condition. If you've ever been told “everything looks normal” but your body says otherwise, this episode is for you.

We explore this common condition, its risk factors, and how simple lifestyle changes can reverse it before more serious health problems develop.• Insulin resistance occurs when muscles, liver, and fat cells fail to respond to normal levels of insulin• The pancreas compensates by producing more insulin, eventually leading to beta cell failure• Clinical signs include dark skin patches in body folds (acanthosis nigricans), elevated triglycerides, and increased waist circumference• One in three Americans have prediabetes, with many also experiencing insulin resistance• Risk factors include central obesity, sedentary lifestyle, family history, PCOS, and certain racial/ethnic backgrounds• Sleep disturbances, chronic stress, and fatty liver disease are emerging factors linked to insulin resistance• A 5-7% weight reduction improves insulin sensitivity by over 50%• Regular physical activity (150+ minutes weekly) helps glucose enter cells more efficiently• Diet modifications focusing on whole foods, limiting refined sugars, and following Mediterranean or DASH patterns show significant benefits• "The movement is the medicine, the food is the medicine" when addressing insulin resistanceSupport the showSubscribe to Our Newsletter!

Let's dive into articles that have been critical to understanding type 2 diabetes and Insulin Resistance: the Ominous Octet and now the Egregious Eleven from the BMC Medicine paper and the 2009 Diabetes paper by Dr. Ralph DeFronzo. Peter Attia recently interviewed Dr. Defronzo and I am on listen #3 because it is so good and yet incredibly complicated. This piece is a compilation of that interview and reviewing Dr. DeFronzo's papers. “…all too often, the risk factors for these disorders are not addressed promptly in clinical practice, leading to irreversible pathologic progression… Traditional approaches to treatment involving sequential therapy, in which agents are added only after one has failed, contribute to clinical inertia and often prevent goal attainment, leading to adverse outcomes…. in turn contributing to increased morbidity and mortality. In contrast, early diagnosis and prompt, intensive intervention, often with initial combination therapy, leads to faster goal attainment and improved outcomes for at-risk patients.” (Handelsman et al. 2023)(Schwartz et. al. 2024) ...literature review.
