Send us a textThe effects of protein restriction on metabolism, liver hormones, brain, and behavior.Episode Summary: Dr. Christopher Morrison talks about how animals sense and prioritize nutrients like protein, discussing defense mechanisms for essentials such as oxygen, water, sodium, and energy; the brain's role in detecting protein deprivation via signals like FGF21; trade-offs between growth, reproduction, and longevity under protein restriction; and reconciling high-protein diets for satiety and muscle maintenance with low-protein benefits for metabolic health and lifespan extension.About the guest: Christopher Morrison, PhD is a professor and researcher at the Pennington Biomedical Research Center in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, where he has worked for over 22 years focusing on nutrition, metabolism, and chronic diseases like obesity and diabetes.Discussion Points:The body prioritizes nutrients hierarchically: oxygen and water first, then sodium, energy, and protein, with weaker defenses for carbs or fats.Animals develop specific appetites for deprived nutrients, like salt or protein, often through post-ingestive learning rather than just taste.Protein restriction (e.g., 5% vs. 20% in diets) increases food intake and energy expenditure in mice to maintain protein levels, even at the cost of extra calories.FGF21, a liver hormone, signals protein deprivation to the brain (via NTS region), driving protein-seeking behavior and metabolic changes; it's essential for low-protein responses.Protein restriction extends lifespan in lab animals by suppressing growth signals like IGF-1 and mTOR, but may impair immunity or wound healing in real-world conditions.High protein aids satiety, weight loss, and muscle building, but overconsumption may shorten lifespan; optimal intake depends on age, activity, and goals (e.g., not for pregnant or elderly).No one-size-fits-all for protein: mild restriction may benefit middle-aged sedentary people for health, while athletes need more; balance avoids excesses.Related content:M&M 106: Diet, Macronutrients, Micronutrients, Taste, Whole vs. Processed Food, Obesity & Weight Loss, Comparative Biology of Feeding Behavior | Stephen Simpson & David Raubenheimer*Not medical advice.Support the showAffiliates: Seed Oil Scout: Find restaurants with seed oil-free options, scan food products to see what they're hiding, with this easy-to-use mobile app. KetoCitra—Ketone body BHB + electrolytes formulated for kidney health.

What if the reason you're struggling with low energy, stubborn weight, or digestive issues isn't about willpower — but your Metabolic Type? In this episode of the Health Fix Podcast, I sit down with Martin Pytela, functional medicine expert and metabolic typing coach, to explore how your unique biology shapes the foods, supplements, and lifestyle choices that actually work for you. We each inherit strengths and weaknesses in three key systems: ✅ Autonomic Nervous System – Are you sympathetic dominant (anxious, wired, stuck in fight-or-flight) or parasympathetic dominant (burned out, chronically fatigued)? ✅ Oxidation Rate – Is your metabolism burning fuel fast or slow? (Think paper vs. logs on a campfire!) ✅ Endocrine System – Thyroid, adrenal, pituitary, and ovarian dominance all shape your body type, hormone balance & weight patterns. When you understand which system dominates — and which needs support — you can use personalized nutrition and lifestyle strategies to restore balance, energy, and vitality. ✨ In this conversation, you'll discover: The power of biological individuality in nutrition Why pH balance is crucial for overall health How endocrine dominance shapes weight, metabolism & hormones The role of stress, detoxification, movement & emotional healing in restoring health Why personalized nutrition is the fastest path to consistent energy and resilience Martin's story is inspiring — after healing himself from mercury toxicity, he's helped over 12,000 clients uncover the hidden causes of their health struggles. His message is clear: true healing is possible, even for long-standing conditions.

So many women say they're tired all the time in menopause.  Even those who do exercise to improve health, which would include energy levels, will often say, “I'm tired all the time.”   Let me share what I would do, and actually did at the end of 2019 when I found myself recovering from a big year of mental and physical stressors. 80% of the population don't exercise, specifically 80% of women don't lift weights the minimum times per week needed for optimal metabolic health. If you are one of those 20% you should be the most energetic people in the room wherever you go! If you exercise consistently and you're tired all the time, something isn't right. It may be about the exercise you're doing, the fuel you're consuming or absorbing, the way you're handling the stressors on your plate, or a combination. There may be something more going on, but often when you have this “check engine” light going on, addressing some changes will help.   This is the best place to start to address why you're tired all the time in menopause.   1. Stop Exercising “As Usual”  The mentality “This is the workout I always do. If I don't, I will lose my fitness” makes it worse! Even though metabolism changes are documented, pushing exercise to the brink of exhaustion is not the first line of defense in fixing it.  Science states, “The basal metabolism of the female body decreases significantly, which can mean a decrease in the basal metabolic rate (BMR) of up to 250–300 kcal per day.” This inspires a diet mentality that is of the eat less, exercise more, you're not going to benefit from this.  2. Move And Eat In Small Snacks  Small movements (exercise snacks) like walking 10 minutes 3 times a day, instead of a long walk, will be better for overall fatigue. This helps sustain blood sugar levels. If you are suffering from adrenal fatigue, you may have blood sugar dysregulation and you may not have an appetite in the morning. Eating in small snacks throughout the day can stabilize blood sugar levels too. Tired All the Time Isn't “Normal”    3. Track Food To Check On Macro And Micro Nutrient Intake  Cited in studies, key preventive nutrients in menopause are:  Vitamin D Calcium Vitamin C B Vitamins Protein I would also add: Magnesium Omega-3 We need protein and micronutrients to gain lean muscle and strength.   4. Consider Lab Testing For Micronutrient Sufficiency and Cortisol Levels (saliva vs blood, dried or wet urine)  Lab testing will tell if you are sufficient in levels of micronutrients. You can take a look at, are you in norms or are you optimal?   5. Support With Adaptogens To Help The Body Help Itself  Maca, Ashwaghanda, and Rhodiola I found the most benefit personally from Maca. I felt better within a week just taking a morning dose.   These are all steps you want to take whether you are or aren't on HRT. If you're progesterone is low and that's interfering with sleep, it can make a big difference. These things just cover the basics and relate to your exercise and fitness routine.    Additional steps you want to take: Check thyroid levels with a functional doctor. Get a stool test if your digestion isn't what it should be. That will tell you the status of your good and bad gut bacteria and let you know how to feed with the right probiotics so you feed the good ones and starve the bad.  Utilize a health coach who understands optimal levels vs norms of micronutrients. A doctor is necessary to help you interpret many things like thyroid and hormones as well as getting the right tests to begin with.  Seek support from a functional doctor who can recommend specific tests that differ from your traditional physician and help you sort out any of these.    References to Why You're Feeling Tired All the Time in Menopause:  PLoS One, 2024, PMID: 38421977.

Send us a textRegistered dietitian Leonila Campos and dietetic intern Anna Kwon, M.S. tackle the persistent myths about carbohydrates that plague social media and harm athletic performance. They break down the science of how our bodies use energy during exercise and why cutting carbs can damage both health and performance.• Macronutrients explained: carbohydrates, proteins, and fats all play essential roles in keeping our bodies functioning optimally• Your brain and central nervous system run almost exclusively on glucose from carbohydrates• The body uses three energy systems during exercise – phosphagen (immediate energy), anaerobic (carb-dependent), and aerobic (uses all macros but carbs remain most efficient)• When carbohydrate stores run low during exercise, the body breaks down muscle protein through gluconeogenesis• Weight loss from low-carb diets while exercising often comes from muscle loss and water weight, not fat• General recommendations include getting 45-65% of calories from carbs, 10-35% from protein, and 20-35% from fat• Pre-workout nutrition should focus on carbohydrates (60-70% of calories) to fully stock glycogen• Post-workout recovery requires both protein AND carbohydrates within 2 hours (ideally immediately)• Excessive protein intake can cause kidney strain, dehydration, and leaves less room for nutrient-dense carbs• Food has no moral value – all foods fit into a balanced, sustainable approach to eatingFor nutrition questions or personalized guidance, contact Leo at 559-512-0404, fueledbyleo@gmail.com, or on Instagram @nutrition_with_leonila.

Coaches Justin, Amanda, and William offer programming, form coaching, diet coaching and more, here! In this episode of the Bacon Bibles Barbells podcast, coaches Justin, Amanda, and Emily discuss the intricacies of dieting, calorie counting, and the importance of mindfulness in nutrition. They emphasize the significance of understanding caloric intake, the psychological aspects of dieting, and the role of macronutrients in achieving long-term health and fitness goals. The conversation also touches on the common misconceptions surrounding calorie expenditure and the impact of high-fat diets on overall health.   Takeaways Caloric deficit is essential for weight loss. Tracking calories helps in understanding eating habits. Mindfulness in eating can lead to better choices. The human body operates on energy balance principles. Diet fatigue is often psychological rather than physiological. High-fat diets may lead to health issues over time. Protein is crucial for satiety and muscle maintenance. Long-term health should be prioritized over short-term weight loss. Understanding macronutrients is key to body composition. Sustainable eating habits are more important than strict dieting.

Episode DescriptionIn this episode, Coach Mark Carroll dives deep into one of the most polarizing topics in the fitness world: aggressive fat loss. While the mainstream often discourages fast approaches, Mark breaks down the psychology, strategy, and science behind why aggressive fat loss—when done correctly—can be a powerful tool.From momentum and motivation to adherence, macros, and metabolic adaptation, this is a no-BS, highly practical guide to faster results. Whether you're gearing up for a big event, need a jumpstart after a plateau, or just want to understand how to diet smarter—not just harder—this episode is for you.Key Topics Covered

Dr. Joel Fuhrman provides clarity on the roles of fat and protein in our diet. Understand how to balance these macronutrients for optimal health and prevent common dietary misconceptions. #FatAndProtein #NutritionalBalance #HealthyDiet

Macronutrients might be the main character in most nutrition conversations, but if you're serious about your health, performance, or just feeling like a functioning human, you need to care about the micros. Amanda, Sabrina, and Lauren talk all things micronutrients: what they are, why they matter, and how they affect everything from your energy and mood to your recovery and immune system. They break down fat-soluble vs. water-soluble vitamins, who's most at risk for deficiencies, when supplements make sense (and when they're a waste), and how to make getting enough micronutrients way less complicated than it sounds. This one's for anyone who wants to go beyond macros and start feeling their best from the inside out.

Why connection is the key to a life well lived.The new year gives us an opportunity to reflect on who we are and who we want to be. As we set resolutions and prepare for evolutions, this special four-part series on communication, happiness, and well-being explores practical ways to enhance our lives through better communication, deeper connections, and more meaningful choices.When it comes to happiness, Arthur Brooks says it's not about reaching a destination — it's about heading in the right direction.

According to him, a happy life is made of enjoyment, satisfaction, and meaning, which we cultivate through connection with others. "Faith, family, friends, and work, that's your basic happiness 401k plan,” he says.In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Brooks and host Matt Abrahams explore the fundamental role of relationships in creating a happy life, and how effective communication helps us build and maintain these essential connections.This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.

Throughout the episode, she answers listener questions on topics such as the critical role of fiber in the diet, why fruit for breakfast alone isn't a good option for weight loss and energy and  what your diet should look like for fertility and pregnancy.Kelley also touches on digestive health and how to use nutrition to improve gut health, which is foundational for immune function, cognition and energy . She provides insights into how to get more fiber into your diet since 90%+ of Americans are not getting enough for detoxification and finally offers her personal recommendations for prenatal vitamins, comparing different supplements to help listeners make informed decisions.This episode is packed with actionable advice and insights on how to nurture your metabolism through proper nutrition so that you can lose weight in a sustainable way AND elongate your lifespan by preventing chronic disease, offering listeners a holistic approach to health that goes far beyond dieting.

In this episode, my guest is Dr. Zachary Knight, Ph.D., a professor of physiology at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), and Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) investigator. We discuss how the brain controls our sense of hunger, satiety, and thirst. He explains how dopamine levels impact our cravings and eating behavior (amount, food choices, etc) and how we develop and can change our food preferences and adjust how much we need to eat to feel satisfied. We discuss factors that have led to the recent rise in obesity, such as interactions between our genes and the environment and the role of processed foods and food combinations. We also discuss the new class of drugs developed for the treatment of obesity and diabetes, including the GLP-1 agonists semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy) and tirzepatide (Mounjaro). We discuss how these drugs work to promote weight loss, the source of their side effects, and the newer compounds soon to overcome some of those side effects, such as muscle loss.
