Episode SummaryA solo Mini-Mikkipedia. Mikki is often asked how to tell whether someone in the women's health space is worth following, and in this episode she answers it by working through two examples of what she thinks has gone wrong: practitioners who build large audiences on free information and then, in her view, monetise their followers' insecurities.The first half is physiology. Mikki takes two specific claims made about fasting — that it preserves muscle through growth hormone, and that it raises GLP-1 enough to make a medication unnecessary — and explains why she thinks both are wrong: the anabolic effect needs IGF-1, which needs protein and energy, and GLP-1 is a nutrient-sensing hormone that responds to food arriving in the gut. She is careful to separate that from where she thinks fasting genuinely earns its place, and to state the version of the GLP-1 claim that can be defended. The second half looks at a collagen supplement marketed for cellulite: what the one cellulite trial actually found, what a 2025 review found once industry-funded trials were separated out, and why she thinks cellulite is the wrong thing to be selling women anything for. She closes with the people she does think are worth following. Mikki is explicit that this is her opinion — "I'm just telling you what I think" — and equally explicit that she is not making a supplement of her own.Key TopicsHow to judge whether someone in the women's health space is worth following, and the pattern Mikki looks for: free information that turns out to be a funnelWhy Mikki fact-checked Fast Like a Girl and concluded the evidence base was mechanistic, preclinical or wrong, and what she has seen in clients who followed the protocolWhere fasting genuinely earns its place — severe insulin resistance, some gut issues, and as a researched adjunct in cancer treatment — and why 12 hours overnight is not really fastingThe growth hormone argument: why an increase in growth hormone without an increase in IGF-1 does not build or protect muscle, and why the reported percentage increases are inflated by a near-zero baselineWhy fasting cannot raise GLP-1, since GLP-1 is secreted by enteroendocrine L-cells in response to protein, fat and fermentable fibre arriving in the gut — and the one version of the claim that can be defendedThe collagen supplement marketed on the back of a story about cellulite, and Mikki's objection to the marketing rather than to collagen itselfWhat the cellulite trial actually found: 105 women, 2.5 g of collagen peptides daily for six months, a 9% reduction in cellulite score at normal BMI and 4% above BMI 25 — and nothing replicating it in the decade sinceThe 2025 review of 23 trials where collagen improved skin hydration, elasticity and wrinkles overall, but showed no effect in the trials without industry fundingWhy Mikki thinks cellulite is the wrong focus altogether, and her answer to the pushback that she talks about women's bodies herselfWho she suggests following instead, and why she has turned down several approaches to make her own supplementChapters00:00 Introduction and Fast Like a Girl03:15 Where fasting is genuinely useful05:33 Growth hormone, IGF-1 and the GLP-1 claim09:46 Mary Claire Haver's cellulite supplement13:20 Collagen, funding and the wrong focus16:55 Who to follow in women's healthGuest / ResourcesGuestNo guest — a solo Mini-Mikkipedia episode.People discussedDr Mindy Pelz — author of the Fast Like a Girl system, discussed critically throughout the first halfDr Mary Claire Haver — discussed in relation to a collagen supplement marketed for celluliteDom D'Agostino — referenced for his research on ketogenic diets and fasting, including fasting as an adjunct to cancer treatmentPeople Mikki recommends followingHailey Babcock — Hailey Happens Fitness, strength training and nutrition for women in midlifeDr Abbie Smith-Ryan — Professor of Exercise Physiology and Nutrition, University of North Carolina at Chapel HillDr Stacy Sims — exercise physiologist and nutrition scientist, known for her work on female athletesJen Kirsch and Holly Nicholson — also named by Mikki as people worth followingStudies and research discussedSchunck M, Zague V, Oesser S, Proksch E.

EVEN MORE about this episode!Julie Ryan has remotely scanned patients during surgeries for more than 30 years—but says she had never seen anything like what appeared during her husband Tim's operation. As people around the world prayed for him, Julie perceived the operating-room ceiling completely filled with cherubs.After weeks away from The Ask Julie Ryan Show while Tim underwent surgery, Julie returns to share the extraordinary experience and what she believes may have connected it to prayers being offered by children at Dominican schools around the world, along with Franciscan sisters in Illinois.Then Julie takes calls from around the globe for medical intuitive scans, energetic healing, spirit communication, past-life exploration, and messages from deceased loved ones.Mary asks about treatment-resistant depression and ketamine, leading to a discussion of metabolic approaches to mental health. Deanne calls about recurring C. diff and colitis, and Julie performs an energetic scan and healing while discussing digestive health.Meg and her daughter Ella connect with Meg's deceased father, Mike, and beloved dog Ebony. Julie explains how she believes anyone can begin communicating with deceased loved ones and explores whether animals can participate in signs from Spirit.Nick calls from Thailand about his lifelong fear of animals. Julie explores what she perceives as a past life in 1912 Siberia involving sled dogs and a wolf attack—and discusses whether unresolved experiences from another lifetime could influence fears in this one.Julie also scans a caller's friend experiencing severe vision loss and later connects intuitively with Birdie, a dog diagnosed with an intestinal tumor.From cherubs in an operating room and the power of prayer to spirit communication, past lives, medical intuition, energetic healing, and beloved animals, this episode explores the possibility that there may be far more happening around us than we can physically see.Episode Chapters:(0:00:00) Julie Returns & Shares an Update on Tim (0:02:51) Cherubs Filled the Operating Room—What Did Julie See?

He is Professor Emeritus at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, a founder and the first chair of the American Board of Obesity Medicine, and a past president of The Obesity Society. He was also the corresponding author on the STEP 1 semaglutide trial published in the New England Journal of Medicine in 2021, and sat on the steering committee for SELECT — so he has watched this field from the inside, before and after GLP-1 receptor agonists arrived.The conversation traces what clinicians actually understood about obesity in the 1980s and 90s, Bob's own leptin trial and why it did not deliver, and how reframing obesity as a biological disease led researchers to the gut hormones. From there it moves into the practical territory: how the clinical conversation has shifted from counting calories to diet quality, which side effects are real and which are social media noise, what happens to muscle mass and physical function, how dose escalation should actually work, why hunger returning is not the same as weight regain, and what the evidence says about stopping. Bob is careful throughout to separate what the trials show from what is still unknown, which makes this a useful listen whether you work with clients on these medications or are weighing them up yourself.Key TopicsWhat clinicians believed about obesity three decades ago — excess body fat was known to cause system-wide harm, but the mechanisms, and appetite dysregulation in particular, were not understood, and weight regain after lifestyle intervention was already expectedBob's own leptin trial in the 1990s, published in JAMA, and why leptin turned out to be a useful biological signal rather than a treatment — it defends against weight loss but was never built to stop overeatingThe STEP 1 result and why it changed the field: 15% average weight loss at 68 weeks against a previous benchmark of 6–9%, with a third of participants losing 20%How the clinical conversation shifted from quantity to quality — when the medication does the heavy lifting, the questions become whether someone is eating enough, staying hydrated and getting sufficient protein, rather than how to control cravingsWhich side effects are real and which are overstated: GI effects are the genuine shared profile and can be substantially reduced through diet during dose escalation, while hair thinning and facial fat loss follow large weight loss by any routeMuscle mass, sarcopenia and the groups who need watching, alongside the consistent finding that physical function and quality of life improve in trials — possibly because fatty infiltration of muscle resolvesDose escalation in the real world versus the trial protocol, and why there are still no pretreatment predictors of who will respondWhy appetite drifting back is normal and not a failure — Bob's framing of restored appetite regulation at a lower body weight, with "the amplitude smaller than it was before"Benefits beyond weight loss, including SELECT's 20% reduction in cardiovascular events on top of standard care, plus sleep apnoea, knee osteoarthritis, MASH and psoriasis — driven both by weight loss and by independent mechanismsCost and access, microdosing, extending the interval between injections, and where bariatric surgery still fitsChapters00:00 Introduction05:13 Obesity medicine before GLP-1s13:34 Gut hormones and the STEP 1 result21:00 From calorie counting to diet quality25:00 Side effects and social media myths29:54 Muscle mass, function and exercise35:08 Dose escalation and who responds40:30 When hunger comes back46:37 Stopping the drug, cost and access52:24 Benefits beyond weight loss57:37 Long-term safety and microdosing1:01:10 Coming off, surgery and what's nextGuest / ResourcesDr Robert KushnerProfessor Emeritus, Northwestern University Feinberg School of MedicineFounder and first chair of the American Board of Obesity MedicinePast president of The Obesity SocietyAuthor or editor of 15 books, 56 book chapters and 230 original and review articlesWebsite: drrobertkushner.comBooksSix Factors to Fit: Weight Loss that Works for You! — written for the patientPatient-Centered Weight Management: The Six Factor Professional Program and Toolkit — written for the clinicianTrials and studies discussedSTEP 1 — once-weekly subcutaneous semaglutide, New England Journal of Medicine, 2021. 1,961 adults, 68 weeks, ~15% average weight loss.

Hälsoveckan by Tyngre diskuterar den här veckan effekten av tre olika dieter när man har bra koll på kaloriintaget. Studien som diskuteras har jämfört ketogen kost, lågfettkost och medelhavskost i ganska kontrollerande förhållande där deltagarna först fick tappa vikt och sen höll man deltagarnas nya vikt stabil i några veckor för att slutligen göra en rad hälsotester. Resultatet visade på positiva hälsoeffekter från alla dieter men om något så var det små förbättringar för den ketogena dieten jämfört med de andra två. På vissa tester tenderade även medelhavskosten att dra det längsta strået. Studien är riktigt bra utförd för att vara en dietstudie men tyvärr var antalet deltagare i de tre grupperna få vilket gör att det är svårt att veta hur stor vikt man ska lägga vid olika delar. Studien i fråga heter, Effect of diet macronutrient content on the cardiometabolic response to weight loss: A randomized clinical trial.

A Normal HbA1c Can Hide a Decade of Insulin Resistance

BS Free MD with Drs. May and Tim Hindmarsh

Play Episode Listen Later Sep 13, 2026 22:35 Transcription Available

Episode SummaryHbA1c turns up on almost every routine blood panel, and in this Monday mini episode Mikki looks at how much it can genuinely tell you. She starts with the physiology — haemoglobin picks up glucose non-enzymatically, red cells live 100 to 120 days, and the result is a weighted average of glucose exposure that leans heavily on the most recent month. That matters more than it first appears, because anything that shortens or lengthens red cell lifespan moves the number without blood glucose changing at all. Iron deficiency, heavy menstrual bleeding, foot strike haemolysis in runners, thalassaemia and sickle trait, recent blood donation and B12 deficiency can each push a result in one direction or the other.From there Mikki works through the research-based critiques: insulin resistance and beta cell decline can precede an abnormal HbA1c by many years, the test is highly specific but only about 50 per cent sensitive against an oral glucose tolerance test, an average conceals the shape of the glucose curve, and both genetics and ordinary measurement noise move the number independently of glucose. She closes on the practical side — where HbA1c does earn its place, why she still thinks a result of 40 or 41 deserves a conversation with your doctor, and which markers are worth reading alongside it.Key TopicsWhat HbA1c actually measures. Glycation is non-enzymatic with no regulatory brake, so it proceeds in proportion to how much glucose is around and how long the cell is exposed. A red cell cannot repair it, making it a passive record of the preceding 8 to 12 weeks.The "three-month average" is weighted, not even. About 50 per cent of the movement toward a new value happens in the first month, which is why a result can shift over six weeks.Falsely low results. Haemolysis of any cause, haemoglobinopathies such as sickle trait and thalassaemia trait, ongoing blood loss, blood donation, recent transfusion, advanced liver disease, and starting iron treatment in someone iron deficient.Falsely high results. Untreated iron deficiency anaemia, B12 and folate deficiency, splenectomy or functional asplenia, and aplastic anaemia.Athletes get it from both directions. Foot strike haemolysis lowers A1c relative to true glucose exposure, while the iron deficiency common in female athletes raises it — and the two distortions can partly cancel out, so the number alone will not tell you which is happening.Correcting iron can drop A1c without any dietary change. Mikki's worked example is a woman going from 42 to 37 mmol/mol once her iron is sorted, and her concern is that the change gets credited to a nutrition intervention she never needed.The cut-offs, in New Zealand and US units. Roughly 30 to 39 mmol/mol normal, 41 mmol/mol pre-diabetes and 50 mmol/mol diabetes locally, against WHO and ADA thresholds of 42 and 48 mmol/mol. Type 2 diabetes throughout, not type 1.HbA1c is a lagging signal. Insulin markers can diverge from controls up to 20 years before diagnosis, and beta cell function is already down around 50 per cent by the time someone meets diagnostic criteria — so a normal HbA1c is compatible with a long stretch of compensated insulin resistance.Specific but not sensitive. Against an oral glucose tolerance test, sensitivity of about 50 per cent with specificity around 97 per cent, and screening work in which the HbA1c criteria missed a large majority of pre-diabetes.What to read alongside it. Fasting glucose, ideally fasting insulin, waist-to-height ratio, triglyceride-to-HDL ratio and a fasted lipid panel — plus your own historic trend rather than the population cut-off.Chapters00:00 How HbA1c works and what distorts it03:41 Athletes, foot strike haemolysis and iron06:23 New Zealand and US cut-offs08:40 Why HbA1c lags insulin resistance12:12 Averages, genetics and measurement noise15:41 Your own trend, and ethnic differences18:41 Where HbA1c earns its place21:31 Sign-off and new recipesGuest / ResourcesSolo episode — no guest.Referenced in the episodeWorld Health Organization — pre-diabetes around 42 mmol/mol (6%), diabetes at 48 mmol/mol (6.5%)American Diabetes Association — diabetes at 48 mmol/mol (6.5%)Mikki discusses findings from a number of published studies through the episode.

He has spent his career removing colon cancers, treating digestive disease, and now studies how gut bacteria drive nearly every system in the body, from hormone metabolism to brain optimization. They break down why fibermaxxing can backfire without the right mix of fast, medium, and slow fermenting fibers, and why generic "eat more fiber" advice ignores what your gut bacteria actually need. The conversation covers protein absorption limits and how much your body can really use, the truth about saturated fat and metabolism, and why the sodium-to-potassium ratio matters more than sodium alone. They also dig into fasting and the gut's natural cleaning cycle, the estrobolome and testobolome and their role in hormone balance and longevity, and how AI is starting to reshape personalized health data, supplements, and functional medicine.

What Are Trainers For in the GLP-1 Era? with Dr Eric Helms

Save 20% on all Nuzest Products WORLDWIDE with the code MIKKIPEDIA at www.nuzest.co.nz, www.nuzest.com.au or www.nuzest.comEpisode SummaryDr Eric Helms returns to Mikkipedia for an unscripted conversation about GLP-1 medications and what they mean for anyone working in nutrition and fitness. Eric is a coach, athlete, author and educator, part of the 3DMJ coaching team, co-founder of the MASS research review, and co-director of the Sports Performance Research Institute New Zealand (SPRINZ) at AUT, where he is also a senior research fellow. Mikki opens with a personal trainer who was accused of stepping outside her lane for talking about GLP-1s, and the two of them work outwards from there.The conversation covers whether coaches and nutritionists are within their scope supporting people on these medications, what obesity medicine can miss when a patient's weight loss stalls, and why reduced everyday movement belongs under the heading of metabolic adaptation rather than being treated as a separate problem. Eric separates appetite into distinct drivers — energy signalling, hedonic food seeking and food noise — and explains why that distinction matters clinically. The second half turns to protein, where Eric makes the case that it is a minor player for most people's health outcomes unless intake is genuinely low, and that "which macronutrient is most satiating" is the wrong question in the first place. He is candid throughout about the limits of what is currently known, including several things he says he cannot answer. The episode closes on his argument that trainers have an opportunity to stop being weight loss coaches and get back to promoting health, fitness and movement.Key TopicsScope of practice. Eric argues the behavioural, lifestyle, nutrition and exercise side of GLP-1 use is squarely within a personal trainer's remit — while cautioning that nobody yet has the twenty years of practitioner experience we have with medications like exogenous insulin.Where the usual trainer skill set doesn't transfer. Most trainers are practised at helping clients restrain appetite. Clients on GLP-1s often have the opposite problem: struggling to eat enough, and needing nutrient quality raised on a low intake.What a stall actually signals. When someone stops tracking calories and their weight loss plateaus, Eric's first read is not under-fuelling — it is that tracking had become tedious and unsustainable, and no second skill set has replaced it. He treats the stall as an opportunity to build other skills rather than a reason to resume tracking.Movement, NEAT and metabolic adaptation. Reductions in spontaneous physical activity and non-exercise activity thermogenesis come from the same mechanisms as the older, narrower idea of a falling metabolic rate. Eric's view is that most of the "side effects" attributed to these drugs are the side effects of successful weight loss.Appetite is not one thing. Eric separates energy signalling (feeling depleted), hedonic food seeking (actively wanting a particular food or experience) and food noise (constant, distracting preoccupation) — then notes satiety has several definitions of its own on top of that.Why near-universal drug response is interesting. In trials of a newer triple-agonist medication, every participant in the higher dose groups lost at least 5–10% of body weight. Eric speculates — and flags it clearly as speculation — that this implies the drug targets more than food noise alone.How much protein actually matters. Eric's position is that protein is a minor player for general population health outcomes unless someone is starting low. Moving from around 0.8–1.1 g/kg to 1.3–1.5 g/kg has a reasonably moderate effect; moving from 1.6 to 2.2 g/kg is minor outside physique sport, where it is "a game of inches".Meeting people where they are. Someone on an intermittent eating pattern may be reaching only 1.1 g/kg, and a poorly constructed plant-based diet 0.9 g/kg. Telling them to double it can read as an impossible barrier. Mikki describes targeting 1.2 g/kg for GLP-1 clients against the 1.8–2.2 g/kg circulating online.Satiety is a meal question, not a macronutrient question. Food weight and volume, texture, hardness, eating rate, energy density, fibre and fluid all matter, and Eric raises an open question he says he cannot answer: whether those levers become more effective in someone on a GLP-1 once the environmental drivers of overeating are suppressed.What trainers are for. Eric suggests fear of professional redundancy drives some anti-GLP-1 feeling in the industry, argues obesity is primarily a built-environment problem needing a societal-scale solution, and makes the case that trainers should return to promoting health, fitness and movement.Chapters00:00 Introduction03:36 No small talk and no script06:59 Are trainers in their lane on GLP-1s?12:17 Low carb pushback and the naturalistic fallacy14:38 When weight loss stalls21:18 Reduced movement, NEAT and metabolic adaptation24:36 Food noise, hedonic eating and appetite29:36 What personal trainers are actually for32:31 Bodybuilding, diet culture and physical culture38:55 How much protein do we really need?46:36 What actually drives satiety55:57 Where to find EricGuest / ResourcesDr Eric HelmsCoach, athlete, author and educator; a personal trainer since the early 2000s, with a background in the US Air Force and commercial gyms.Part of 3DMJ, coaching drug-free strength and physique competitors.Co-founder of the MASS research review (Monthly Applications in Strength Sport), produced with Dr Eric Trexler, Dr Lauren Colenso-Semple and Dr Michael Zourdos, running since 2017 — massresearchreview.comCo-director of the Sports Performance Research Institute New Zealand (SPRINZ) at AUT, and a senior research fellow supervising Masters and PhD students.Instagram: @Helms3DMJCo-host of the Iron Culture podcast.Also mentionedMikkipedia episode 390 — "Living the Bodybuilding Lifestyle with Eric Helms", the previous conversation Mikki refers to: podcast.mikkiwilliden.com/390Docs Who Lift — the podcast from Dr Spencer Nadolsky and Dr Karl Nadolsky, recommended by Eric.Barbell Medicine — Dr Austin Baraki and Dr Jordan Feigenbaum, recommended by Eric for their work on HRT, testosterone replacement therapy and GLP-1 medications.The protein leverage hypothesis — the idea that people keep eating until they reach a protein threshold; Eric notes that threshold sits around 12–13% of energy.The Minnesota semi-starvation study — referenced by Eric as background on the transient, biologically driven effects of dieting.The physical culture movement of the early 1900s, and Bernarr Macfadden as a figure within it.A recent conference abstract indicating people on GLP-1s may be less active than they ...

Episode SummaryThis is a solo Mini Mikkipedia on emotional eating, prompted by a practitioner who asked Mikki how to help a client who describes herself as a lifelong emotional eater — someone who eats when she is stressed, eats when the day has been long and she finally sits down, and has tried everything she has read about without anything sticking. Rather than going straight to coping strategies, Mikki starts by asking whether it is emotional eating at all.The answer she gives is careful. Emotional eating is measured by questionnaires like the Dutch Eating Behaviour Questionnaire and the Emotional Eating Scale, but when high scorers are put in a lab under a genuinely induced negative mood, they largely do not eat more than anyone else — and the group that reliably does eat more is restrained eaters, meaning dieters. That does not make emotional eating imaginary: it shows up consistently in clinical binge eating, and phone-based sampling in ordinary life does show boredom, stress and low mood preceding craving. Mikki's position is that someone calling themselves an emotional eater is describing something real but may have the mechanism wrong. A large share of it, she argues, is under-fuelling, chaotic eating and under-sleeping with an emotional trigger sitting on top — so the mechanical causes come first, and only what survives that audit is worth treating as an emotional problem. The second half is practical: regular eating structure, tracking the trigger rather than the food, one if-then plan, affect labelling, and letting a self-limiting urge pass. Useful if you work with clients who use this label about themselves, or you use it about yourself.Key TopicsWhy the emotional eating questionnaires may not measure what they claim — high scorers largely do not eat more than anyone else when negative mood is genuinely induced in a lab, and across a meta-analysis of 56 experimental studies in nearly 3,700 participants the group who reliably ate more were dieters, not self-identified emotional eatersWhere emotional eating does hold up: clinical binge eating, and real-life phone sampling showing boredom, stress and low mood preceding cravingRestraint as a driver — attempted restriction predicting the next loss-of-control episode better than actual restriction did, and why the attempt matters more than the achieved deficitThe mechanical audit to run first: enough food earlier in the day, protein at each meal, satiety signals like volume, speed, texture and flavour, long gaps without eating, and sleepHow sleep restriction raises ghrelin, lowers leptin and shifts brain activity away from the frontal and insular regions towards the amygdala — and why someone on six hours of sleep presents identically to an emotional eater but needs a different interventionThe two patterns worth distinguishing: clock-locked eating that goes sideways between five and ten at night regardless of the day, and situation-locked eating that tracks events insteadWhy a regular eating structure removes the physiological amplifier and makes the emotional signal visibleTracking the trigger rather than the food for two weeks, why most people find their triggers far narrower than they assumed, and why an if-then plan works better when it adds a behaviour than when it removes oneAffect labelling, and urges being self-limiting — rising, peaking and falling within about 10 to 20 minutes whether or not you act on themSelf-criticism after an episode reliably predicting more eating, and self-compassion tested as the alternativeChapters00:00 Introduction and the emotional eating label04:00 Ruling out under-fuelling and sleep06:59 Clock-locked versus situation-locked eating09:52 Building a regular eating structure11:55 Tracking the trigger and if-then plans14:09 Affect labelling and riding out the urge16:27 Self-compassion and when to refer on18:33 Recap and closeQuestionnaires discussedDutch Eating Behaviour Questionnaire (DEBQ) — van Strien, T., Frijters, J.

Mikki describes each by its finding rather than by citation, so these have been identified afterwards and matched on population, design and reported numbers.Whether the emotional eating scales measure what they claim (01:36, 02:19) — Bongers, P., & Jansen, A.

The terms “low-carb” and “ketogenic” are often used interchangeably, but are they the same thing?Not quite.A low-carb diet can be a powerful tool for improving blood sugar, triglycerides, insulin levels, inflammation, and overall metabolic health. Ketogenic diets, on the other hand, involve a deeper level of carbohydrate reduction that shifts the body into nutritional ketosis, where ketones become a significant source of fuel for the brain and body.That metabolic shift can be especially relevant when ketosis itself is part of the therapeutic goal.In this video, Dr. Bret Scher walks through:How low-carb and ketogenic diets are typically definedThe amount of carbohydrate that may support nutritional ketosisWhat changes in the body once ketone production increasesHow each approach may be used for different metabolic goalsWhy ketosis is being studied for serious mental illness and other brain-based conditionsHow clearer terminology can help people set more realistic expectationsThe right level of carbohydrate reduction depends on the person, the condition being addressed, and the intended outcome. Someone looking to improve general metabolic health may do very well with a low-carb approach. Someone using ketogenic therapy for a clinical purpose may need closer monitoring, greater precision, and support from an experienced healthcare team.Understanding which approach you're following gives you a clearer way to track progress, interpret results, and discuss next steps with your clinician.

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

What if the reason you keep regaining weight isn't a lack of willpower—but because diets never address why you're eating in the first place?At 61, retired nurse Kim felt like she had tried everything. Weight Watchers. Slimming World. Keto. SlimPod. Atkins. Even the cabbage soup diet.She could lose weight. But keeping it off was another story.Before joining the programme, Kim describes herself as being at “rock bottom.” She was post-menopausal, struggling with aches and pains, caring for ageing parents, and feeling anxious and overwhelmed. Food—and increasingly alcohol—had become a way to cope with stress.A difficult phone call could lead to reaching for food without even thinking. A stressful visit with her parents might end with a gin and tonic, followed by evening snacking.And every time another diet failed, Kim blamed herself.In this episode, we explore why sustainable weight loss after menopause can require looking beyond meal plans and restriction—and addressing the habits, emotions, and thought patterns underneath your eating.You'll hear how Kim learned to:Recognise her emotional eating triggers instead of automatically reacting to them.Use mindfulness, breathwork, and emotional regulation tools during stressful moments.Eat three regular, balanced meals without obsessing over food.Reduce the constant “food noise” and start trusting herself around food.Enjoy meals out, holidays, cake, and the occasional drink without feeling like she had ruined everything.Respond more calmly to stressful situations instead of automatically turning to food or alcohol.After around five to six months, Kim had lost over 11kg, six inches from her waist, and nearly two clothing sizes—while still going on holidays, attending weddings and parties, and eating out.But the biggest change isn't just the number on the scales.Kim says she feels calmer, more present, and hopeful about the future. She's planning walks, improving her swimming, trying new hobbies, and thinking about what she wants from the next stage of her life.If you're a woman over 40 who knows what to eat but still struggles with emotional eating, menopause weight loss, stress eating, or keeping weight off, Kim's story may help you see the problem differently.Listen to the full episode now and discover what can change when you stop starting another diet and begin addressing the patterns underneath your relationship with food.Follow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/max.lowery/Book a Food Freedom Breakthrough Call: https://www.neverdietagainmethod.uk/call-igWatch my The Cravings & Fat-Burning Masterclass: https://www.neverdietagainmethod.uk/register-podcast

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

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

They discuss why there is rarely one nutritional strategy that works for everyone, and why individual experimentation, alongside good physiological principles, remains so important.The conversation also covers pre-training nutrition and insulin responses, carbohydrate loading, low-carbohydrate versus high-carbohydrate approaches, and how training load should influence fuelling decisions. Paul shares his perspective on the growing use of continuous glucose monitors and other personal data, including where these tools can provide useful insight and where the numbers may be easy to overinterpret.They also touch on nutrition for youth athletes, the physiological changes that occur through puberty, and why fuelling strategies need to evolve with both the athlete and the demands of their sport.It's a wide-ranging discussion that brings together physiology, practical nutrition, and the importance of looking beyond blanket recommendations to understand what works best for the individual.Dr. Paul Laursen is a world-renowned sports scientist, endurance coach, and co-founder of Athletica AI, an innovative platform leveraging artificial intelligence to optimize endurance training.

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

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

130. Do Carbs Make You Gain Weight? The Truth About Carbs, Fiber, and Weight Gain

The Postpartum Reset

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

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

It also highlights encouraging four-month findings across metabolic health, cognition, depressive symptoms, and both positive and negative psychiatric symptoms.They discuss:Why this trial is an important step for metabolic psychiatryHow participants adhered to a ketogenic diet with structured supportWhat changed in metabolic health markers like BMI, A1C, and HOMA-IRWhy cognitive improvements were especially meaningfulHow positive symptoms, negative symptoms, and depressive symptoms changed over timeWhat family members noticed as participants re-engaged with daily lifeWhy future studies may need to be longer, larger, and more mechanisticThis trial marks an important step for metabolic psychiatry and points to the need for larger, longer, fully controlled studies that can better clarify how ketogenic interventions may affect metabolic, cognitive, and psychiatric outcomes.
