Karen Coleman-Ostrov, age 65, spent much of her adult life trapped in the exhausting cycle of dieting. She was a lifelong dieter who tried over a dozen different diet programs and protocols, each promising weight loss but ultimately leading to frustration. Some diets caused her to gain weight or slow down her metabolism, while others required tedious food measuring or strict deprivation. Though she often lost weight temporarily, none of these plans were sustainable long-term, and she would always regain what she lost.In August 2020, Karen had a pivotal moment when she saw a stunning, youthful photo of her sister-in-law, Dedra Campbell, on Facebook. Karen initially thought it was a much older photo because Dedra looked so slim and vibrant. When she learned it was recent, Karen immediately called her to uncover her secret. Dedra shared that her success came from practising intermittent fasting, a concept that initially worried Karen because it sounded like deprivation and constant hunger. Yet, out of curiosity and hope, Karen bought the book, “Fast.Feast.Repeat.” by Gin Stephens and decided to give fasting a try—starting with a clean 18/6 fast.To her surprise, Karen found fasting easier than expected. The first fast sparked a change that would transform her life.At the time, Karen weighed 175 pounds (fluctuating often between that and 182 pounds) at 5'5”. Over the coming months, Karen faced challenges like a slowed metabolism caused by years of yo-yo dieting, the effects of menopause, and managing type 2 diabetes. Less than a year into fasting, Karen joined The Fasting Highway and also ordered and read the book.  Karen found encouragement from Graeme and fellow fasters, which was crucial as she learned to trust the process and understand that her weight-loss journey was uniquely hers—meaning she shouldn't compare her progress to others'. Karen lost weight gradually but steadily.  After about two years, she dropped from 175 pounds to 160, and then a few months later to 149—a weight she hadn't seen in more than 20 years! Eventually, Karen's body settled around 142 pounds, a healthy and comfortable place for her. Her highest weight was 208 pounds, at which point she struggled with daily tasks such as bending over to tie her shoes, suffering from sleep apnea, and being out of breath after going up stairs or walking long distances.Today, Karen's health and mobility have vastly improved. She no longer has sleep apnea and can climb challenging staircases, like the 185 steps of the Gibbs Hill Lighthouse in Bermuda and the 294 steps of the Leaning Tower of Pisa, with ease. Maintaining her weight is effortless now with a flexible intermittent fasting routine, usually fasting 18/6 or OMAD on weekdays, and enjoying longer eating windows on weekends to socialise and eat out.Karen's favourite part about fasting is the control it gives her over food—not feeling controlled by it. When asked why she continues fasting after reaching and surpassing her goal weight, Karen's answer is simple: Intermittent fasting is not a diet or a fad—it's a sustainable lifestyle. This lifestyle has allowed her to lose weight for the last time and live confidently in her body every day.Come and Join Our Patreon Community.

Send us a textIntegration of brain metabolism with neural signaling, highlighting how core metabolites regulate energy use and protect neurons.Topics Discussed:Brain energy efficiency: Brains are much more energy-efficient than computers for similar processing, relying on adaptive metabolic strategies evolved under energy scarcity.Metabolism vs. information processing: Core metabolites like glutamate bridge basic cellular energy production and neural signaling.Lactate as a signal: Produced during exercise, lactate diffuses from muscles to brain, modulating neuronal excitability and providing neuroprotection.BHB in ketosis: During fasting or ketogenic diets, beta-hydroxybutyrate displaces glucose as fuel, enhances antioxidant defenses, and activates protective potassium channels in neurons.Adenosine and sleep: Accumulates from ATP breakdown during wakefulness, triggering sleep and locally inhibiting overactive neural networks for energy conservation.Glial cells' role: Astrocytes and oligodendrocytes handle sophisticated metabolism, release signaling molecules like lactate, and modulate synapses, and influence diseases like Alzheimer's.Practical Takeaways:Regular exercise elevates lactate, which signals the brain to adapt metabolism and may enhance neuroprotection against stress.Intermittent fasting or ketogenic diets can induce ketosis with BHB, potentially boosting brain antioxidant defenses and preconditioning against metabolic stress.Prioritizing sleep helps clear adenosine buildup, restoring energy balance and supporting long-term neural health.About the guest: Dr. Luis Felipe Barros, MD, PhD is a Chilean neurobiologist and professor at the Universidad de Valparaíso, where he leads a lab studying brain metabolism from glucose transport to mitochondrial function.Related Episode:M&M 255 | Unlocking Energy: How Nutrition & Drugs Impact Your Mitochondria | Chris Masterjohn*Not medical advice.Support the showAffiliates: Lumen device to optimize your metabolism for weight loss or athletic performance.

The end of the year is always fun and also almost always a time of year where people gain weight without realizing. Or maybe even while realizing, and thinking it's inevitable. Fortunately, this episode contains everything you need to know in order to maintain your weight and physique through the holidays. It begins by realizing it's possible, and then by realizing that maintenance is also progress. It's not only weight loss, or muscle gain… there is a middle road where you can just cruise. And honestly, this is where you want to spend most of your time anyways. Luckily, it's also pretty easy when you have a decent plan. In the episode I go over how you can structure your workouts to make this simple, with plenty of adjustments for whatever your situation is. I also talk about my nutrition strategies around the holidays and how I personally use them to come out ahead. Intermittent fasting is big for this, as well as some big boy decision making. Good guide here for the end of the year, put it to use!The best way to support the podcast is to share the episode with a friend.

Aujourd'hui, on va parler de jeûne intermittent qui est très à la mode. Il s'agit de sauter des repas. Cela permettrait de manger moins, donc de maigrir. Il nous épargne comptage de calories, aliments interdits et autre lubie diététique. Il y a une seule règle à respecter : il faut s'abstenir de manger une partie du temps, au moins 12 heures d'affilée. Il existe plusieurs formules : on peut aussi ne rien manger 1 jour sur 2, voir même 2 jours sur 5. L'important, c'est de trouver la formule qui nous convient le mieux, compatible avec sa vie familiale et sociale. Hébergé par Audiomeans.

Avoid these mistakes for a healthy gut! These 8 common gut health mistakes could be destroying your digestive health. Discover the habits and foods that ruin gut health, along with my expert gut health tips to improve your digestion and overall health today.1. Trying to improve gut health with fiberIncreasing fiber is one of the worst things you can do for your gut, yet it's commonly recommended. If your gut is damaged, fiber can exacerbate the issue, contributing to gas and inflammation. If you have gut inflammation, the carnivore diet can help!The carnivore diet helps increase glutamine, an amino acid that promotes gut healing. Zinc carnosine and butyrate, found in butter, are excellent for a healthy gut. Intermittent fasting and periodic prolonged fasting are crucial for maintaining digestive health.Approximately 40% of the population has SIBO. L. Reuteri can help reduce SIBO and has many other amazing benefits. It increases oxytocin, lowers stres, and even increases social capacity. Ensure you have strong stomach acid for healthy digestion and protection from microbes. 2. Commercial probiotics and yogurt The amount of probiotics in these products is so low that it won't make a difference in gut health. Many commercial yogurts are low-fat and contain added sugar and starch. 3. Colon cleansingThis eliminates beneficial gut bacteria, which can ultimately lead to constipation and other health issues. Avoid detoxing and focus on a healthy diet.4. Antibiotics Your gut microbiome does not fully recover after taking antibiotics. Bacteria that survive antibiotics can become antibiotic-resistant superbugs! If you have to take antibiotics take a good probiotic simultaneously.5. Antacids Acid reflux is a valve problem caused by low stomach acid. Weakening your stomach acid worsens the problem. Strong stomach acid is vital for digestion, protection against pathogens, and mineral absorption. 6. Low-fat diets Low-fat diets are bad for digestion because fat stimulates the gallbladder to release bile. Low bile leads to constipation and the inability to kill off microbes in the small intestine.7. Balanced diet Everything in moderation is the worst advice! Lowering carbs from 45% to 65% of your calories to 10% can significantly improve digestion.8. Superfood shakesSuperfood shakes and smoothies with kale, spinach, and fruit can overload the small intestine with fiber. Red meat is the best superfood!

If you suffer from severe menstrual cramps, this is for you. Find out how to stop menstrual cramps naturally by addressing the root cause with these 13 natural remedies for period pain. Never experience menstrual cramps again! 0:00 Introduction: How to reduce period pain0:23 What is a menstrual cramp? 1:30 What causes severe period cramps? 6:42 Vitamin D3 and painful menstrual cramps 12:38 13 natural remedies for period painToday, I'm going to show you how to relieve period cramps fast, and for good. There are two types of period cramps: the primary type is labeled idiopathic, and secondary cramps that are caused by fibroids, ovarian cysts, or endometriosis.Many women take NSAIDs, birth control pills, and Depo shots for period pain relief. The medical community generally discourages the use of natural remedies for menstrual cramps, but does not discourage the use of medication. Research has shown the effectiveness of vitamin B1 and vitamin E.Upon searching for the root cause, I stumbled upon the following clues:• Painful cramps are caused by pain chemicals called prostaglandins. • Vasopressin, which causes contractions and decreased blood flow, is elevated when you have menstrual cramps.• Painful period cramps are associated with high parathyroid hormone levels. • Women with painful menstrual cramps also have much higher inflammation in the uterus, often related to NF-KB. • Black women have a 33% higher likelihood of getting severe period cramps than white women. • Menstrual cramps are sometimes treated with calcium channel blockers. This led to the conclusion that the root cause of menstrual cramps is a severe vitamin D3 deficiency! Try the following natural remedies for period pain and say goodbye to menstrual cramps for good:1. Take 20,000 IU of vitamin D3 daily2. Take 400-600 mg of magnesium glycinate 3. Follow a low-carb diet4. Intermittent fasting5. Cod liver oil for pain relief6. Vitamin E7. Vitamin B18. Increase iron with red meat9. Zinc for vitamin D3 absorption10. Exercise11. Fenugreek12.

In part two of the fasting series, Simon and Dr. Jules Strauss dive deep into the different types of fasting protocols available today. From time-restricted eating to extreme approaches with catchy names, they explore what the science actually supports versus what's simply clever marketing designed to sell products. Jules walks through the continuum of fasting approaches and importantly discusses who should avoid fasting altogether, drawing on her expertise in female-specific nutrition and eating disorder awareness. Key Points Discussed: Time-restricted eating (TRE): The most common and manageable approach, typically 16:8 or 14:10 windows, with early eating windows showing slightly greater benefits for insulin sensitivity. Intermittent fasting (5:2 approach): Five normal eating days with two very low-calorie days, and why this can be challenging for endurance athletes to manage around training. Red flag approaches to avoid: The "Warrior Diet," "Lean Gains," and other extreme protocols with fancy names that often promote disordered eating behaviour's. Who should avoid fasting: Anyone with a history of disordered eating, youth athletes, pregnant/lactating women, older athletes with higher protein needs, and those with recurrent injuries. The reality check on benefits: Fasting doesn't provide superior results compared to traditional calorie restriction - it's simply another tool that works for some people. Individual considerations: How training schedule, lifestyle, and personal circumstances should guide whether fasting is appropriate. Key Quotation: "I think it's important to recognise and acknowledge that, on the face of it, that is the time restricted eating approach. But when we kind of layer on all these additional kind of rules and restrictions, that's the point at which this becomes incredibly challenging for anyone to really implement... and actually lean more towards promoting and supporting people to engage with more kind of disordered eating behaviour's."

Intermittent fasting has been making waves, especially on social media, where it's often hailed as a miracle fix for weight loss. While it's no silver bullet, fasting can be an effective tool when part of a well-rounded lifestyle tailored to individual needs. Intermittent fasting is a pattern of eating that alternates between periods of fasting, usually 12 to 16 hours, and eating. Staying hydrated is key. The British Dietetic Association notes that this break can help regulate insulin levels and reduce fat storage. Unlike typical diets, it focuses on when you eat, not what, which may make it easier to stick to. Isn't this how the human body evolved to function? Is intermittent fasting safe for everyone?

In this episode, we are joined by Prof. Mark Mattson, adjunct professor of neuroscience at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine.  He is also the former chief of the Laboratory of Neurosciences. Mark is a leading voice in intermittent fasting. Vikas and Mark discussed the impacts of Intermittent fasting on brain function, the types of intermittent fasting, the effects of intermittent fasting on neurotransmitters in our brain, and the proper protocol to practice intermittent fasting.Here are some key takeaways:Our bodies need energy, but the evolution from food scarcity to food abundance has made intermittent fasting a relevant concept.Intermittent fasting is an eating pattern that depletes the liver glucose stores and makes your body switch to using the stored fat as fuel.For people suffering from diabetes, obesity, and even cancer, intermittent fasting has proven to be an effective method.People with obesity, which is a Body Mass Index (BMI) of over 30, are likely to develop dementia & Alzheimer's. Intermittent fasting is proven to aid significant memory improvement.Indians observe fast for religious purposes in India. The scientific truth behind the practice of fasting.Types of Intermittent fasting (16:8, 5:2, alternate fasting), & the right protocol to practice.Difference between good stress & bad stress.

Individual housing for pre-weaned calves has long been gold standard, since it was first introduced in the 40s. However, interest has emerged around paired and group housing for this phase of production. Intermittent research on this topic has been published over the past 25 years but has never been compiled, until now. Dr. Katarina Buckova from IA State University, and her team combed through research databases and compiled the results of several projects on paired housing, compared to individually housed calves. Research on production, health and behavior illuminated gaps in knowledge needed for producers to effectively move forward on this production practice. If your farm is considering paired or group housing, listen in for a compelling discussion about the impacts, perceived and measured, about how this calf development concept could impact the future of your herd.

At 83, certified health & nutrition life coach and longevity advocate Michael Dorfman explains why aging well is less about luck and more about daily, repeatable choices—whole-food plant-based eating, stress reduction, movement, brain challenges, intermittent fasting, and hot/cold exposure. We unpack how habits compound over decades, why chronic disease often starts early, and how to design a meaningful life at any age.   About the guest  : Michael Dorfman is a certified health & nutrition life coach, investigative author, and longevity advocate. Vegetarian since 1976 and whole-food plant-based since 2008, he earned Plant-Based Nutrition certification from Cornell (2019). His work—including The Thriving Vegan and The Longevity Wellness Revolution—translates decades of study into actionable steps for vibrant aging. He lives in Mexico and publishes weekly articles on Substack.   Key takeaways: Longevity isn't fate; it's shaped by daily lifestyle choices more than genetics. Whole-food, plant-based nutrition is Michael's non-negotiable foundation for vitality. Ultra-processed foods (now a large share of global diets) drive metabolic and inflammatory burden—cut them first. Build resilience by challenging body and brain: strength work, new skills, non-dominant-hand practice, board games, pickleball. Intermittent fasting and hot/cold exposure can fortify energy, focus, and recovery when used sensibly. Stress management is longevity-critical—relationships, work fear, and news cycles compound wear and tear. Chronic disease often begins decades earlier; start small now (one meal/one habit at a time). Habits change through repetition and identity shift—see yourself as a healthy person and act accordingly. Genes may set a baseline, but environment and behavior influence expression; don't surrender agency. For those with existing conditions, incremental improvements still matter—focus on controllable inputs and coordinated care.   Medical Disclaimer:This conversation is for educational and informational purposes only and is not medical advice.

Listen to the full episode: https://youtu.be/6jLhl8Zaznw?si=jaBuMbIWQApYpeEv  Why does starting your day with protein reduce anxiety for the rest of the day? In this Fitness Friday episode on the Habits and Hustle podcast, Sal Di Stefano joins me to break down the science of blood sugar control, why intermittent fasting is "a terrible way to lose weight," and the shocking truth about cardio versus strength training for fat loss. We also unpack the biggest mistake women make when tracking progress: obsessing over the scale instead of body composition. Sal explains why 40% of weight lost through cardio comes from muscle, shares a study where strength training alone beat cardio AND strength training combined for fat loss, and reveals why psychologists now prescribe high-protein breakfasts to anxious patients. Sal Di Stefano is a fitness expert with over 20 years of personal training experience and co-host of the Mind Pump podcast, one of the top-rated fitness shows in the world. What we discuss: How protein at breakfast controls blood sugar and reduces anxiety throughout the day The two-question filter for any fitness advice: "Will I do it?" and "Is it realistic?" Intermittent fasting's original purpose and why it fails for weight loss Cortisol addiction and the binge-restrict cycle fasting creates When cold plunges hurt more than help for overstressed people Cardio vs strength training: why 40% of cardio weight loss comes from muscle The study where strength training alone beat cardio for fat loss Ditching the scale: better metrics for tracking body transformation Thank you to our sponsor: Therasage: Head over to therasage.com and use code Be Bold for 15% off  Air Doctor: Go to airdoctorpro.com and use promo code HUSTLE for up to $300 off and a 3-year warranty on air purifiers.

Bio By Ros BolandI'm Ros, 46 years old, and I am a Teacher Aide at a school in Dalby, Queensland, Australia. I have been married for 23 years to a wonderful man, Justin, who has been a great supporter of my journey. I have three amazing children, Jimmy, 21, Clare, 19, and Leila, 17, who are incredibly proud of me and my greatest assets.  I grew up in a Lebanese family where food is such an important thing. Although growing up we didn't eat processed foods I was surrounded by great cooks. I was an active young girl and lived on a farm where we had to work alongside our Mum and Dad. I was always so much bigger than my peers at school, and I  was always physically active. Once I left school, my weight increased as I was very social and never wanted to miss out. I put on a lot of weight living the lifestyle of most 18-year-olds. I  ended up joining Gloria Marshal and lost a lot of weight, but soon put it all back on. When I got married in 2002, I joined Weight Watchers and lost 20kg, and I felt great. I was 78kg. Once again, I  gotback into bad habits and put on weight plus some. In 2003, I had 2 miscarriages, and in  2004, I had my first baby, and Igained 18kgs.  I just kept getting bigger after each pregnancy, and I was in denial as to how big I had gotten. I was resigned to the fact that I would always be a big woman; I come from a line of big people. I've always enjoyed cooking for my family and entertaining, and I just thought this is normal, this is who I am. In 2022, I went to my doctor, and she told me that I was morbidly obese and I was killing myself. I knew that I was in a bad way with my weight, and I just didn't know what to do. I have a family history of heart disease and diabetes, so I knew that I didn't want to end up like so many of my family members. My doctor suggested I take Ozempic, so I did. My highest weight was 153.2kg (337.7 pounds) in January 2022. I lost 20kg on Ozempic by July 2022 and could no longer get Ozempic due to not being a diabetic. I was honestly devastated as it was working so well.  In September 2022, I ran into a friend who had lost a significant amount of weight and asked what she had been doing. We discussed Intermittent fasting, and I started listening to Gin Stephens' podcasts, immediately starting with clean fasting and delaying my eating window. I read her book, "Delay Don't Deny." I focused on what I was eating, and at first, I didn't really change what I was eating, but I soon realised my body wanted different things.   I went on to lose 33kg and am still losing. My current weight is around 100kg. I don't actually weigh myself, but go on how my clothes feel.  I don't set myself goals as I have struggled with this all my life, and I know I just get disappointed when I haven't achieved them. I started out unable to walk to the end of my street, which is only about 100 metres, and I knew I loved to walk, but I just didn't have the motivation to do it. I now walk between 7-10 kilometres 5 days a week, and this is due to IF. Walking with my best friend, Chelsea, has been the best thing for both my mental and physical well-being. Without her support, I wouldn't be so committed.Since starting IF, I haven't looked back; losing over 53kg over the past few years has been the best thing. I have had so many NSV along the way, and I will never go back to not living this lifestyle.  To join the Patreon Community.

I’m joined by Neal Mercado, Chief Science Officer at Melrose, one of Australia’s leading wellness brands and the team behind Melrose Future Lab. Neal leads a thought-provoking conversation on ageing, vitality, and the science behind what really works. We unpack the difference between lifespan and health span—because it’s not just about living longer, but living well. From cellular senescence to musculoskeletal strength, we look at ingredients leading wellness conversations and the future of longevity science. Neal also lifts the lid on supplement quality, why not all extracts are created equal, and explains the concept of bioavailability to actually move the needle. If you’re navigating perimenopause, curious about longevity, embarking on strength training, or trying to make sense of the supplement aisle, this episode will help you cut through the noise and make informed, future-focused choices. In partnership with Melrose Future Lab. Key Takeaways: Health span means more years lived well, not just longer Cellular senescence (aka “zombie cells”) reduces function as we age Berberine can support healthy blood glucose and AMPK activation Quality matters: not all herbal extracts or proteins are created equal Collagen, especially bovine-derived, supports muscle health Strength training is essential for bone density in menopausal women Supplement bioavailability is as important as the ingredients themselves Innovative formulations are changing how we absorb nutrients Menopause research is decades behind other women’s health areas Perimenopausal women benefit from tailored support and active nutrients Intermittent fasting and autophagy support cellular repair Effective supplements are about formulation—not fads Watch the full episode here: https://youtu.be/g1OFqhrIl1ISee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hey Heal Squad! We're back with Part 2 of our powerful conversation with Dr. Nadine Macaluso, psychotherapist, trauma expert, and former wife of the “Wolf of Wall Street.” Dr. Nadine breaks down the psychology of trauma bonds, what they are, why they're so hard to escape, and the real steps you need to take to leave safely. She explains how intermittent reinforcement keeps people stuck, why “love bombing” is actually manipulation, and how to spot the red flags of a pathological partner before it's too late. PLUS, we dive into the shame and self-blame survivors carry, how to reframe those beliefs with compassion, and why learning to trust yourself again is the key to healing. Nadine shares inspiring stories of women who not only left toxic love, but went on to build thriving lives and even find healthy love again.This episode will remind you that freedom, clarity, and joy are absolutely within reach. HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS Trauma bonds are designed to keep you stuck. Intermittent reinforcement, love bombing, and devaluation create a cycle that feels like love but is actually control. Love bombing is manipulation. Those over-the-top gifts, sweeping gestures, and declarations of “soulmate love” are tools to hook you fast. Dr. Nadine explains why true love builds slowly, while love bombing is a red flag that signals future coercion and abuse. Shame keeps survivors silent. Releasing self-blame and choosing self-compassion is the first step toward breaking free and healing. The healing shift comes when survivors reframe the story, release self-blame, and embrace compassion for what they endured. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy's Page: Shop My Macy's Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/  Briotech: https://shopbriotech.com/ Use Code: HEALSQUAD for 20% off  Join In-Person Heal Retreat Waitlist! https://mariamenounos.myflodesk.com/heal-retreat-waitlist GUEST RESOURCES: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/therealdrnadine/?hl=en  Website: https://drnae.com/  Download the First Chapter of Dr. Nae's new book Book mentioned in the episode: https://www.amazon.com/Women-Who-Love-Psychopaths-Relationships/dp/0984172807  ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos' passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

This week on Fat Science, Dr. Emily Cooper, Andrea Taylor, and Mark Wright break down five eye-opening research studies from 2025 that challenge everything you thought you knew about obesity, dieting, and metabolism. The hosts explore surprising new evidence on fitness trackers, the metabolic power of joy (and dessert!), the risks of intermittent fasting, how yo-yo dieting can damage kidney health, and the permanent impact of dieting on your brain-gut connection.Dr. Cooper shares clinical insights and explains why simple fixes—strict diets, calorie counting, and food restriction—can actually backfire, causing more harm than good. From the science of hormone signaling to the pitfalls of diet culture, the conversation reveals powerful new reasons to embrace flexibility, balance, and self-kindness on the journey to metabolic health.Key Takeaways:Fitness trackers can dramatically underestimate calorie burn—errors can reach 93%, especially for people with higher body weight. Companies rarely test enough real-world diversity and may fudge numbers for marketing.Including dessert and “forbidden foods” in your diet leads to better metabolic outcomes, greater mental stability, and less risk of binge eating or weight regain. Joyful eating helps regulate critical hormones like leptin and ghrelin.Intermittent fasting is linked to hair loss. Energy deficits force the body to use fatty acids as fuel, which can damage hair follicle stem cells. Long-term fasting negatively disrupts glucose/insulin balance and destabilizes metabolism.Yo-yo dieting (weight cycling) now shows a direct connection with kidney damage—even in those at normal weight. Rapid weight shifts restrict kidney blood flow, raise cortisol, and cause irreversible damage.Dieting creates lasting changes in the microbiome and brain-gut signaling that promote weight regain and appetite dysregulation. Even a single round of weight cycling can create stubborn metabolic obstacles.Personal Stories & Practical Advice:Andrea shares why dessert is a staple of her happiness—and how mental restriction backfires. Dr. Cooper gives real-world examples from patients: eating favorite foods can unlock better weight results, while “diet damage” often lingers until medical treatment repairs it. Resources from the episode:Fat Science is a podcast on a mission to explain where our fat really comes from and why it won't go and stay away. We are committed to creating a world where people are empowered with accurate information about metabolism and recognize that fat isn't a failure.

What is water fasting? What are its benefits? Intermittent fasting is gaining huge popularity as a dietary option, but what actually happens to your body when you fast? When I first heard about water fasting, I thought, “No way am I doing this!” But after doing some research and finding out about the benefits of this process, I changed my mind. And now I'm going to tell you what I experienced during my 20-day water fast. The first 2 days were going to be the most difficult. And they were indeed! I felt incredibly hungry — almost as if I had missed several breakfasts, lunches, and dinners. My energy level dropped, and my mood left much to be desired. I was increasingly irritated, and my patience was wearing thin. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Fasting is one of the most talked-about health practices of our time, yet it's also one of the most misunderstood. That's why I'm thrilled to sit down with Dr. Chris Rhodes, PhD in Nutritional Biochemistry, to dive deep into the science, history, and future of fasting for health and longevity. Chris explains how fasting is hardwired into our biology as a survival mechanism, the differences between intermittent fasting, 36-hour fasts, and alternate-day fasting, and why longer fasts can regenerate immune cells, reduce inflammation, and promote longevity.If you've ever been curious about fasting but struggled to make it part of your lifestyle, or if you're looking for cutting-edge insights into extending healthspan, this conversation is packed with science, clarity, and practical takeaways you won't want to miss.

Dr Leah Hechtman, one of Australia's most respected naturopathic educators, joins fx Medicine by BioCeuticals ambassador Emma Sutherland to discuss the often-overlooked stage of men's health: andropause. More than simply “low testosterone,” andropause reflects age-related changes including Leydig cell decline, metabolic changes, vascular shifts, and neurological alterations that shape male wellbeing across the lifespan. Leah outlines how andropause may present in practice, from body composition changes and hair greying to mood shifts, sleep disruption, prostate dysfunction, and reduced cognitive performance. She highlights the importance of comprehensive testing — extending beyond testosterone — to include oestrogen, progesterone, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinising hormone (LH), insulin, leptin, insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), and DUTCH hormone analysis. These insights allow clinicians to identify early signs and develop a more complete picture of male ageing. The discussion also explores strategies that may support resilience, including optimising sleep, managing stress, and addressing metabolic health. Useful complementary medicines include nutritional considerations such as nicotinamide riboside, bioflavonoids, and zinc, as well as herbal medicines including ginkgo, grape seed extract, ashwagandha, and tribulus. The role of prostate health and testosterone therapy is also discussed. Covered in this episode: (01:01) Welcome Leah Hechtman (02:22) What is andropause?

In a fascinating and insightful discussion, I sat down with Dr. Jon Brudvig, a medical scientist and expert in neuroscience and drug development. Together, we explored the science of aging, the critical role of cellular recycling, and the practical steps anyone can take to improve their healthspan. Jon Brudvig shared his journey from rare disease research to longevity science, offering actionable insights into how our daily choices impact the aging process. Such a good conversation, I have split it into two parts. What You'll Learn: The Cellular Foundation of Aging:Discover how Dr. Brudvig’s research into lysosomal storage diseases led him to understand the universal decline in cellular recycling (autophagy and lysosomal function) as a key driver of aging. Autophagy Explained:Learn why autophagy—the body’s process of breaking down and recycling damaged cellular components—is essential for health, and how modern lifestyles can disrupt this natural cycle. The Fundamentals of Longevity:Understand why exercise, diet, sleep, vitamin D, omega-3s, and real-life social connections are the true building blocks of a long and healthy life. Mouse Models and Human Longevity:Gain perspective on the limitations of animal studies in longevity research, and why findings in mice don’t always translate directly to humans. The mTOR Pathway and Protein Intake:Explore the debate around the mTOR pathway, protein consumption, and how balancing periods of growth and rest may be the key to optimal aging. Healthspan vs. Lifespan:Reflect on the difference between living longer and living better, and why increasing your years of good health (healthspan) is a more realistic and valuable goal than chasing extreme longevity. Key Takeaways: Aging is cellular: The decline in lysosomal and autophagy function is a core driver of aging and disease. Autophagy matters: Fasting, exercise, and periodic stressors help trigger the body’s natural recycling processes. Master the basics: Exercise, a balanced diet, quality sleep, and strong social ties are the most effective longevity interventions. Be cautious with quick fixes: Not all supplements or drugs that work in mice will work in humans—focus on proven fundamentals first. Balance is key: Intermittent activation of growth pathways (like mTOR) through meals and exercise, balanced with periods of rest, supports healthy aging. Protein quality counts: Mix your protein sources and prioritise whole foods for optimal health outcomes.

In this episode, Vera and Renae explore bulimorexia—a term used for people who oscillate between restriction and binge/purge behaviors—and how this mixed pattern might help explain stubborn relapse rates across eating disorders and food addiction. Dr. Norton shares her clinical lens on risks (medical and psychological), why some traditional programs may miss the mark, and what a holistic, skills-based, harm-reduction treatment can look like (family involvement, gentle re-feeding, DBT/EMDR, food quality, and relapse prevention). Note: Some views expressed are the guest's opinions and experience. This episode is educational and not medical advice. Please consult your care team. What we cover Defining “bulimorexia”: alternating restriction with binge/purge; how it differs from anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa; why it's easier to hide than classic anorexia. Continuum vs. categories: where binge eating disorder fits; overlap with food addiction. Why relapse is common: risks of aggressive refeeding; short-stay residential models; lack of individualized care; missing family systems support. Medical risks (high-level): cardiac arrhythmias and hypotension, esophageal tears/GERD, laxative misuse and constipation, electrolyte disturbance, kidney strain, dental/enamel erosion, parotid swelling, menstrual disruption and fertility concerns. Psychological load: anxiety/OCD traits, depression, social avoidance; the “addiction to restricting” and the short-term ‘high' of hunger. Treatment principles Dr. Norton uses: Gentle, stepwise re-feeding (small, frequent meals; stabilize blood sugar; avoid triggering extremes). Skills over meal plans (shop, prep, and eat whole foods; mindful interoception). DBT for arousal regulation, plus EMDR and trauma work as indicated. Family-based involvement (Maudsley-style boundaries and support). Movement re-entry: slow, safe progression; curbing compulsive exercise. Relapse prevention: strong parent/caregiver alignment, food routines, anxiety skills, and ongoing monitoring. Contested terrain: ultra-processed food, additives, and differing regulations by region; the guest's emphasis on “clean/organic” sourcing. Intermittent fasting cautions: for restrict-prone folks, it can mask restriction; prefer regular, structured eating. What recovery can look like: decreased self-hatred, restored relationships, school/work re-engagement, and more flexible functioning. Resources from the guest: forthcoming book Below the Radar: What They're Not Telling You About Your Food; wellness tools she finds helpful. Suggested chapter markers 00:00 Welcome & guest intro 02:20 What is “bulimorexia”? How it differs from AN/BN 10:55 Why relapse stays high; critique of standard programs 18:30 Medical complications: heart, GI, dental, endocrine 28:15 Psychological patterns: anxiety, OCD traits, depression 34:40 Treatment pillars: re-feeding, DBT/EMDR, family work 45:05 Food quality and UPFs: guest's perspective & debate 53:10 Intermittent fasting cautions; safe movement 58:20 Relapse prevention & outcomes 1:04:10 Advice to clinicians, families, and society 1:08:00 What's next for Dr. Norton & closing Key takeaways (listener-friendly) Mixed patterns (restricting and binge/purge) may be under-recognized and can carry high medical risk. Slow, individualized re-feeding plus emotion-regulation skills (DBT) and family involvement improve safety and engagement. If you're prone to restriction, consistent meals beat fasting. Recovery gains include less self-hatred, more connection, and functional life goals—progress over perfection. Sensitive content note This episode discusses eating-disorder behaviors (restriction, purging, laxatives, insulin manipulation) and medical complications. Please use discretion and support.

On Episode 255 of the Fit Father Project Podcast, we sit down with Fit Father member Chris Farrell, a husband, father of two young boys, and commercial appraiser from Atlanta, Georgia. Like so many busy dads, Chris was caught in the cycle of long workdays, constant travel, and family responsibilities — and his health was slipping away. At 37, he found himself tired, unmotivated, and carrying extra weight. A routine doctor's visit revealed his testosterone levels were equivalent to that of a man 30 years older. That was the wake-up call.Chris joined the Fit Father Foundations Program and committed himself to the process. In just six weeks, he dropped 17 pounds — even while traveling for work — and discovered a new structure for his eating and workouts that he could actually stick with. He leaned heavily on simple strategies like intermittent fasting, balanced plate meals, and daily accountability. These tools became his foundation for lasting success.But Chris's transformation didn't stop with weight loss. Over the last six months, he has consistently trained five days a week, doubling his strength on major lifts and completely reshaping his body. Beyond the physical changes, he describes feeling energized, motivated, and confident in a way he hadn't for years. His wife, kids, and colleagues have all noticed the difference — and his story is inspiring everyone around him.Most importantly, Chris emphasizes the mindset shift: from feeling lost and exhausted to feeling focused, consistent, and proud of sticking with a program. His journey is proof that no matter how busy life gets, the right structure, community, and commitment can unlock powerful results.Key Takeaways:Chris lost 17 pounds in six weeks while traveling for work.He set a modest first goal (10 pounds) but exceeded it quickly.Intermittent fasting (stopping eating by 6 PM) became a game-changer.He managed road trips and flights by choosing healthier options at airports and fast-food restaurants.Counseling first encouraged him to check his bloodwork, uncovering extremely low testosterone.TRT (testosterone replacement therapy) plus lifestyle changes transformed his energy.Weightlifting, not just cardio, helped boost his hormones and physique.Chris went from inconsistent to working out 5 days a week without missing sessions.He doubled his strength on major lifts within months.His wife, kids, and colleagues have noticed his transformation.Community support inside the Fit Father Brotherhood was a key motivator.He's now preaching the program to friends and family with pride.Chris sees this as a long-term lifestyle — a foundation for the next 10 years.See what Mitopure can do for you!Timeline is offering 20% your first purchase.

Today, we're going to talk about poop shape and color, and address gut warning signs in your stool. Normal poop should be brown and sausage-shaped. Small, hard, pellet-shaped poop indicates that something may be wrong higher up in the digestive tract.Soft stool indicates that you may have some missing microbes or food allergies. Pathogens can cause loose stool as your body tries to quickly eliminate them. Unfortunately, with diarrhea and liquid stool, good bacteria are also eliminated. Consume kefir or yogurt with blackberries to restore the good bacteria in your digestive tract. Thin, pencil or cigar-shaped stool signifies a problem in the colon. This could mean the colon is impacted, you have many polyps, or there's some obstruction in the bowels. You'd want to get this checked by a medical professional.Normal stools should be brown in color. If you have a problem with your liver or you have thickened bile or bile sludge in the bile ducts, your poop will be light-colored or gray. Floating stool that is also light-colored further confirms this problem.If your problem is linked to the pancreas, your stool will have a bad odor and may appear greasy. Rarely, this could be associated with cancer, but most of the time, it is caused by an overworked pancreas. Black stool is often a sign of something more serious, usually caused by oxidized blood. Blueberries and blackberries can also cause black stool. Beets can cause your stool to appear red. Hemorrhoids can cause red stool due to fresh blood. Collinsonia root is an excellent remedy for hemorrhoids. Green stool is usually caused by chlorophyll from vegetable consumption.It's not normal to poop once every 2 to 3 days. You should have a bowel movement 1 to 2 times daily. Intermittent fasting is the most important thing you can do for your digestive tract. Frequent eating is very problematic and never allows your digestive system the chance to reset.Incomplete digestion usually results from low stomach acid. Betaine hydrochloride is the best remedy for this problem. Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.
