You try to exercise or at least move throughout the day. You try to get good sleep.    Maybe you've even tried tracking your food, tried fasting, tried keto, or even tried a GLP-1.   But here's what almost nobody tells you. The answer isn't more restriction, more intensity, another diet, another protocol, or another supplement stack.    Doing all of this at the wrong time can not only keep you stuck but also set you back.    This was never about doing more. It's about doing the right thing, in the right order, for your body.   In this video, I'll show you the full spectrum, from disease to dysfunction to healthy to resilient. So you can see where you actually stand.   Then we'll run a quick capacity check across the three things your whole metabolism runs on.    So, by the end, you'll know your one constraint. The single thing to fix first, before anything else can move.   You're not lazy. You're not failing. And you don't need to do more.   You just need the right thing, in the right order.  Let's find out where to start.

Today, I'm delighted to welcome Craig Emmerich as my guest. He's an electrical engineer and bestselling author who works closely with his wonderful wife, Maria. Craig has been following a keto diet for over 17 years and a carnivore diet for over six years to help him overcome chronic Lyme disease and inflammatory response syndrome. Focusing on the science of human nutrition, he has helped thousands of clients regain their health and vitality. In today's discussion, we explore the principles of metabolic health, the role of ultra-processed foods, the bliss point, and the loss of nutrient density. We examine midlife changes in metabolic health and body composition, and highlight the critical importance of metabolic flexibility and adequate protein intake. Craig clarifies why body composition should be considered rather than the scale and explains how he determines carbohydrate tolerance. We also examine the research on the gut microbiome, the insulin-fat cell relationship, insulin resistance, fasting, and the protein-sparing modified fast as strategies for weight loss, and discuss leptin resistance, alcohol, the effects of cortisol and sleep on the hormone cascade, and troubleshooting women's midlife challenges around HRT, hydration, electrolytes, and body composition shifts. Stay tuned for today's informative discussion with Craig Emmerich, who has recently launched a new book, The Art of Metabolic Health, that he and his wife co-authored. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: The importance of consuming whole foods and prioritizing your protein intake How companies engineer foods to encourage overeating Why body composition matters more than the number on the scale How building and maintaining muscle helps to improve insulin sensitivity and metabolic health Why adequate protein intake is essential for maintaining and improving bone density How your carbohydrate intake should be tailored to suit your personal goals, health status, and your response to different foods How insulin resistance develops Why alcohol can interfere with fat loss efforts How inadequate sleep can worsen insulin resistance Bio:  Craig Emmerich Craig Emmerich, who graduated in Electrical Engineering, has spent the last 16-plus years researching nutrition and working with thousands of clients alongside his wife, Maria Emmerich.

What if the way you're aging has more to do with your metabolic health than your age itself? In this episode of Optimal Metabolism, I sit down with longevity physician Dr. Jennifer Timmons to discuss the powerful connection between insulin resistance, hormone health, disease prevention, and aging well. Dr. Timmons shares how her experience in traditional primary care led her to pursue advanced training in functional medicine, precision medicine, and longevity medicine. Together, we discuss what it really means to optimize health as we age, why insulin resistance accelerates many age-related conditions, and how women can navigate menopause with a long-term health strategy in mind. We also explore the growing interest in peptide therapies, where they may fit into a comprehensive health plan, and the foundational lifestyle habits that matter far more than the latest longevity trends. If you're interested in protecting your metabolic health, maintaining vitality as you age, and increasing your healthspan—not just your lifespan—this episode is for you. WHAT WE DISCUSSED: Why insulin resistance may accelerate the aging process The difference between lifespan and healthspan Menopause as a long-term metabolic and cardiovascular transition The role of muscle mass in healthy aging How longevity medicine differs from traditional healthcare Preventive testing and early disease detection Peptide therapies: benefits, limitations, and considerations Common mistakes people make when pursuing longevity Why consistency often beats biohacking Practical steps women can take today to age well FOR MORE INFORMATION FROM DR.

Learn about the Healing Power of Prolonged Fasting: HEREWhat if the secret to deep healing isn't doing more, but going further?Most people assume that repeating short fasts is just as powerful as completing one long fast. Stack enough three-day fasts together and you'll eventually get the same result, right?It's a reasonable assumption, but it may be costing you the deeper healing you're working so hard to reach.Dr. Katie breaks down something many people have never been taught: short fasts and prolonged fasts are not the same healing tool. Short fasts are genuinely valuable. They can support ketosis, lower insulin, improve metabolic flexibility, and put pressure on cancer cells. Dr. Katie does a three-day fast herself every month.But she says they stop short of the second tier.That second tier begins after the early detox window, when the body moves into a much deeper fasting state. Around day eight is the threshold where the fast stops being just a metabolic tool and begins to reveal a much deeper layer of healing. Dr. Katie believes most people never reach because they keep restarting the clock.Chapters:00:04:22 - Why Short Fasts Reset the Clock00:05:21 - Detox Starts After Day Four00:06:21 - Why Long Fasts Need Supervision00:07:23 - The Danger of Refeeding Wrong00:08:21 - The Magic of Day Eight00:09:31 - The Body Targets Damaged Tissue00:10:22 - When Tumor Shrinkage Becomes Possible00:12:17 - The Mind Finally Quiets00:13:20 - Healing Crises Begin00:16:49 - Why You Can't Stack Short Fasts00:17:32 - Cancer Deserves the Full Distance00:18:52 - The Brain Tumor That Disappeared00:19:45 - Why Refeeding Matters Most00:21:00 - Fasting Opens Emotional Healing00:23:19 - What Cancer Experts Would Do00:24:45 - Physical and Emotional Healing Arrive TogetherEvery time you break a fast, your body doesn't just pause. It resets. Dr. Katie uses one simple analogy that makes this clear, and once you hear it, the difference between stacking short fasts and completing a prolonged fast becomes hard to unsee.Press play to learn why Dr. Katie believes anyone fasting for cancer needs to understand the difference between stopping early and going the full distance.Join Dr. Katie's 3-Day Guided Fast, for expert support, daily live calls, and a community to fast alongside: Sign-Up Follow Dr. Katie Deming on InstagramWatch on YoutubeDISCLAIMER: The Born to Heal Podcast  is intended for informational purposes only and is not a substitute for seeking professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

The same glucosamine pill millions take for joint pain may protect a healthy brain — and accelerate Alzheimer's in a brain already in decline. Here's the science.In this episode of Health Longevity Secrets, Robert Lufkin MD breaks down the 2026 plot twist on glucosamine and dementia: why a supplement once hailed as a longevity hack now carries an Alzheimer's warning, and why the answer comes down to one thing — the state of your metabolism. The same molecule helped the metabolically healthy and may have harmed the metabolically broken. The supplement didn't change; the soil it landed on did.Chapters:00:00 — Introduction00:39 — The Supplement Everyone Trusted01:06 — UK Biobank: Glucosamine and 15% Lower Death Risk01:38 — Why Glucosamine Looked Like a Longevity Hack02:48 — The 2026 Plot Twist: Nature Metabolism Study03:53 — Alzheimer's Mice and the Glucosamine Pathway04:13 — How Sugar Tagging (Glycosylation) Explains Both04:57 — Hyperglycosylation in the Alzheimer's Brain05:34 — The Honest Caveat: Association vs Causation06:55 — The Takeaway: Metabolic Health Decides EverythingKey takeaways:In healthy, cognitively normal adults, regular glucosamine use has been tied to lower all-cause mortality and lower risk of dementia — especially vascular dementia.A June 2026 University of Florida study in Nature Metabolism found the opposite signal in sick brains: in people with mild cognitive impairment, glucosamine use was associated with a 25% higher likelihood of progressing to Alzheimer's, and a 25% higher death risk in those already diagnosed.In Alzheimer's mice, glucosamine made memory worse; blocking the same sugar-tagging pathway made it better.The mechanism is metabolic: glucosamine feeds glycosylation (sugar-tagging of proteins). A healthy brain handles it fine; an Alzheimer's brain is already hyperglycosylated, so adding more is "pouring gasoline on the fire."This is association, not proof of cause — and the literature is genuinely mixed. If you're healthy, it's not a fire alarm. If you or a loved one has MCI or dementia, talk to your physician before the next refill.Studies & sources:Hawkinson et al., "Hyperglycosylation is a metabolic driver of Alzheimer's disease," Nature Metabolism 2026 (University of Florida)University of Florida news release on the glucosamine–dementia findingZheng et al., "Association of regular glucosamine use with incident dementia," BMC Medicine 2023 (UK Biobank)Habitual glucosamine use, APOE genotypes, and cause-specific dementia in older adults (UK Biobank)Li et al., "Associations of regular glucosamine use with all-cause and cause-specific mortality," Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases 2020 (UK Biobank)Read Dr. Lufkin's book "Lies I Taught in Medical School".⭐ Enjoying the show?

Dr. Gabrielle Lyon doesn't think we're over fat. We're under muscled. Skeletal muscle isn't just for lifting. It's your metabolic currency. Your body dispatches glucose through it, burns fat in it, and leans on it when illness or injury strike. The markers everyone defaults to, BMI and body fat percentage, are measuring the wrong thing entirely. More muscle doesn't automatically mean healthier muscle. Dr. Lyon explains the difference, and what actually matters.

The World Cup is here, and while we watch some of the world's greatest athletes competing on a global stage, it's fascinating to consider what effect this intense activity may have on the human body. With that in mind, we're re-releasing our conversation with Stanford biochemist Jonathan Long on the future of exercise. Jonathan studies the chemistry of what happens inside your body when you move, and his findings are pointing toward some genuinely surprising possibilities — including treatments for obesity, diabetes, and even, someday, an exercise pill. If the athleticism on the pitch has you feeling inspired, this one is well worth another listen. Have a question for Russ?

In this eye-opening episode, Dr. Scott Watier and Tommy Welling challenge the idea that the number on the scale is the best measure of metabolic progress, revealing why fasting is less about making the scale move and more about why it's moving. They break down the critical difference between being metabolically healthy at a higher weight versus metabolically at-risk at a normal weight, and why BMI alone misses the full picture. The hosts walk through five key markers to track alongside fasting — waist circumference, fasting glucose and insulin, triglyceride-to-HDL ratio, blood pressure, and visceral fat indicators — and explain how each one reflects real metabolic healing that the scale simply can't show. Listeners will come away understanding why consistency with fasting windows and simplified, protein-forward food choices accelerates cellular healing far more than chasing a daily weigh-in number. As a challenge this week, Dr. Scott and Tommy encourage listeners to measure their waist-to-height ratio, pull their most recent labs, and set one new scoreboard metric to track their true metabolic progress. ⁠Take the NEW FASTING PERSONA QUIZ! - The Key to Unlocking Sustainable Weight Loss With Fasting!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Resources and Downloads: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SIGN UP FOR THE DROP OF THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO BLOOD SUGAR CONTROL⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠GRAB THE OPTIMAL RANGES FOR LAB WORK HERE! - NEW RESOURCE! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FREE RESOURCE - DOWNLOAD THE NEW BLUEPRINT TO FASTING FOR FAT LOSS!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SLEEP GUIDE DIRECT DOWNLOAD⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠DOWNLOAD THE FASTING TRANSFORMATION JOURNAL HERE!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Partner Links: Get your⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ FREE BOX OF LMNT⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ hydration support for the perfect electrolyte balance for your fasting lifestyle with your first purchase⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ here!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Get ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠25% off a Keto-Mojo⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ blood glucose and ketone monitor (discount shown at checkout)! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Click here!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Our Community: Let's continue the conversation.

Craig Emmerich spent a decade eating low-carb and feeling great — until he wasn't. What followed was a quarter-million dollars, a chronic Lyme diagnosis, and a hard-won education in what diet alone simply cannot do.In this conversation, Craig and Dr. Ovadia pull apart one of the most seductive myths in the metabolic health space: that the right food is always the right answer. They talk protein thresholds, personal fat limits, the case for bio-identical hormones, and the nuanced reality of GLP-1s — all filtered through 20-plus years of clinical observation and thousands of client testimonies.What emerges is a framework built not on ideology but on context. The question isn't which diet is correct. The question is what your body actually needs right now — and whether you're asking that question honestly.Craig and Maria Emmerich's new book, The Art of Metabolic Health, is available at ketomaria.com.BIG IDEAThe number one failure of any diet is noncompliance — and the number one failure of any health strategy is mistaking the tool for the answer.Craig Emmerich Contact InfoWebsiteKetoMaria.comhttps://ketomaria.com/Newest BookThe Art of Metabolic Health https://keto-adapted.com/product/the-art-of-metabolic-health/Send Dr. Ovadia a Text Message.

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared launches a new series on ancestral nutrition by diving into the world of glandular supplements and organ-based nutrition. From beef liver and heart to spleen, adrenal, and pancreas, Jared explains what glandulars are, why they've become so popular again, and how they've been used historically in both traditional cultures and functional medicine practices. He breaks down the nutrient density of organ meats, the role of peptides and cofactors, and why freeze-dried, New Zealand-sourced organ supplements may offer unique nutritional support for energy, stress resilience, immune health, and overall vitality. Jared also discusses the concept of “like supports like,” the importance of sourcing and processing, and practical guidance for anyone curious about adding glandular supplements to their wellness routine.Organ/Glandular ProductsVisit the podcast website here: VitalityRadio.comYou can follow @vitalitynutritionbountiful and @vitalityradio on Instagram, or Vitality Radio and Vitality Nutrition on Facebook.

This episode originally aired in 2025 and, as one of our most-loved conversations, we're sharing it again with you today.Today Erin and Sasha continue the exploration of the chakras with Manipura - the third of the seven chakras - which translates  as “the shining sacred jewel.” It is associated with the Fire element, the planet Mars, the color Yellow, and the “Ishta Devata” Hanuman. It is located just above the navel and below the sternum, at our solar plexus — also called the celiac plexus — which is a complex system of radiating nerves and ganglia. It is found in the pit of the stomach in front of the aorta. It is part of the sympathetic nervous system and plays an important role in the functioning of the stomach, kidneys, liver, and adrenal glands. This chakra brings Prana to the digestive system, also known as our second brain. From a Western perspective, this is known and expressed as the gut-brain axis (or GBA) - the network of nerves and biochemical signals that connect the brain and the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. It's a two-way communication system that helps maintain homeostasis. The vagus nerve is one of the main nerves that connects the brain and gut, sending signals in both directions. From a clinical perspective, the GBA can impact disorders like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), mood disorders, anxiety, depression, and memory loss. The GBA can also be linked to conditions like autism, obesity, schizophrenia, Parkinson's disease, and Alzheimer's disease. The Manipura chakra is directly linked to our sense of self, self-esteem, sense of purpose, the seat of clear decisive action, vision, dynamic action, assertiveness, discipline, determination, passion, deepest willingness to go beyond, strong will power, courage, resilience, and vitality. When balanced, there is energy and insight, will power and and follow-through, self-reliance, vitality and health. It can only be as balanced as the first 2 chakras. When imbalanced, there is a state of self-doubt, fear, insecurity, wanting, anger, blame, victimhood, depression, and lethargy. Positive affirmations, yoga postures that engage the core such as bow pose, cobra pose, or revolved triangle pose, and kapalabhati pranayama (or breath of fire) help strengthen Manipura when it is weak. We also get into ways of balancing an overactive Manipura, as Pitta-type individuals are prone to over exercising, overworking, and burnout. We hope today's conversation illuminates the ways in which we can reclaim and maintain our personal power, and that it is not as much a process of creating it, as it is discovering that which has always been there and removing what blocks us from experiencing it. Send us Fan MailThis episode is brought to you by Ojas Oasis Ayurveda, Sasha's private clinical practice.

I speak with Johnathan Jarecki, undergraduate science student and host of The Signal Podcast, on all things photobiology. We discuss the full solar spectrum and how ultraviolet, visible, blue, red and near-infrared light each affect human physiology, including the POMC pathway, nitric oxide and blood pressure, and the evidence on sunlight, skin cancer and the vitamin D paradox. We also discuss how artificial light at night suppresses melatonin and disrupts the circadian control of DNA repair, cardiovascular health, and metabolism. TIMESTAMPS03:25 Dr. Max Gulhane04:02 Dr. Gulhane's Love for Science and Medicine09:01 What is Light?12:52 Sunlight Broken Down as a Nutrient14:02 Ultraviolet Light: Sunlight Is More Than Vitamin D15:56 POMC21:38 UVA/UVB on Cardiometabolic Health24:40 Big Picture of UV Light28:41 Sunlight, Skin Cancer, Dermatology Messaging, The Vitamin D Paradox35:10 Blue Light, Artificial Light at Night (ALAN), Mechanisms38:50 Sponsor: Daylight Computer40:34 ALAN, Epidemiology, Cancer, Heart Disease45:04 DNA Repair Mechanisms, Circadian Control47:27 Melanopsin (OPN4), Blue Light, UV Susceptibility53:25 Red, Infrared, Photobiomodulation, Metabolism01:00:08 Blue Light, Metabolism, and the Built Environment01:05:19 Photobiology of Atherosclerosis01:10:11 Blue Light on Cardiovascular Function01:12:25 Three M's of Circadian Health01:18:43 Sunlight, Testosterone, and Reproductive BehaviorFull show notes: https://docs.google.com/document/d/15zOnh_l6WOe6237CbQrFPkeoQjUZXIm9Ul4ncQTNXDQ/edit?pli=1&tab=t.0Show sponsors:

Welcome! and Thank you for listening.   When it comes to health information, it is really hard to find someone that isn't biased.  One way is to be cautious of those making a living selling their own cause.   My mission is to help people live longer and healthier.  It is my job to continue learning and educating people on the best information I can find.  Even if it does not agree with my once held beliefs.  Dr Gregor suggested that eggs are bad because of their cholesterol.  When you read the sources, it certainly shows that cholesterol is in adipose tissue.  And there is inflammation.  But it is far from causation and even the study authors admit to not understanding the role cholesterol plays in inflammation.  Most of our cells make cholesterol and have cholesterol in the membrane.  Surely, we would not possess such a substance if it had no use.  Context matter.  I will discuss this line of thinking as well as how I use testing to confirm a diagnosis rather than screen without regard for pretest probability.   I have adopted a low carbohydrate high saturated fat approach to insulin resistance.  I will be looking to improve fasting insulin levels, decrease HgA1C, improve body composition, and decrease inflammation.  Using these markers, we will work to dial in members markers to attain optimal metabolic health.  If you would like to join us.

Text us a comment or question!Have you ever finished a bag of chips, a sleeve of cookies, or a giant bowl of cereal and thought, "What is wrong with me?"Here's the good news…Probably nothing.In this eye-opening episode of The Over 50 Health & Wellness Show, Coach Kevin pulls back the curtain on the modern food industry and explains why so many people struggle with cravings, constant hunger, overeating, and weight gain.Spoiler alert - it's not because you're weak.It's because you're living in a food environment specifically designed to make you consume more.From hyper-palatable processed foods and the science of craving to the "Snackification of America" and the hidden power of protein, this episode will completely change the way you look at food, hunger, and your own eating habits.If you've ever felt like food has way too much power over you, this episode is a must-listen.In This EpisodeWhy the food industry profits when you stay hungryThe shocking difference between real food and engineered food productsWhat your grandparents understood about eating that we've forgottenThe science behind cravings, the "bliss point," and hyper-palatable foodsWhy you're hungry all the time (even when you're eating plenty of calories)The Protein Leverage Hypothesis explained in plain EnglishHow constant snacking became normalizedWhy most adults over 50 are dramatically under-eating proteinHow to become "hard to market to" and take back control of your health Key TakeawayThe food industry doesn't get paid when you're nourished.It gets paid when you're hungry again.The goal isn't perfection.The goal is awareness.When you understand how modern food is designed to influence your behavior, you can stop blaming yourself and start making choices that support your health, energy, metabolism, and longevity.And maybe the most rebellious thing you can do in today's food environment... is become fully satisfied.Coach Kevin's Challenge This WeekPick ONE thing:

Send us Fan MailYou're eating clean, working out consistently, and doing everything you've been told should work.  So why do you still feel exhausted, inflamed, stuck, or like your body is working against you?In this episode, we unpack one of the biggest mistakes we see women make in midlife: trying to solve stress-related symptoms with more restriction, more exercise, and less food. While these strategies may have worked in the past, hormonal shifts in midlife can make your body far less resilient to chronic stress and far more sensitive to under-fueling, overtraining, and rigid wellness rules.We break down the three hidden stressors that often sabotage energy, metabolism, recovery, and overall well-being:• Under-fueling and its impact on blood sugar, cortisol, and energy• Over-exercising and the hidden inflammatory burden it can create• Over-restriction and the metabolic and mental stress of always trying to be “perfect”You'll learn why these patterns hit harder during midlife, how hormonal changes influence your stress response, and what practical shifts can help you feel better without doing more.If you've been blaming yourself because your old strategies aren't working anymore, this conversation offers a different perspective and a more sustainable path forward.Your body isn't broken. It may simply be asking for a different kind of support.In This Episode:Why total stress load matters more in midlifeThe connection between under-fueling and cortisolHow over-exercising can backfireThe hidden cost of restrictive wellness habitsPractical ways to support your body with food, movement, and recoveryReady to Stop Chasing Wellness and start building a strategy that works with your body instead of against it?

Matt explains what metabolic psychiatry actually is, how it differs from conventional psychiatric approaches, and why factors like insulin resistance, inflammation, and mitochondrial dysfunction are now being considered key drivers in conditions such as depression, anxiety, and more severe psychiatric disorders.They explore the growing interest in nutritional and metabolic interventions, including dietary strategies like carbohydrate restriction, and how these may influence brain energy, neurotransmitter function, and symptom outcomes. The discussion also touches on where the evidence currently sits, what clinicians should be cautious about, and how to think about integrating these approaches alongside standard care.It's a thought-provoking conversation that challenges traditional models of mental health, while offering a more biologically grounded way of understanding and supporting the brain.Dr. Matt Bernstein is a highly respected clinical psychiatrist and a leading voice in metabolic psychiatry, with 25 years of experience helping individuals achieve full mental health and functional recovery.He graduated summa cum laude from Columbia University in English literature and earned his medical degree from the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania. Trained at MGH/McLean, he served as chief resident and later held leadership roles including psychiatrist-in-charge and assistant medical director of the schizophrenia and bipolar inpatient program. He also serves as chief medical officer at Ellenhorn, developing community-based strategies to optimize mental health.For the past five years, Dr. Bernstein has focused on metabolic psychiatry, first in his private practice, and then at Ellenhorn. More recently, he created Accord's comprehensive program and is sharing his expertise through podcasts, national conferences, and briefings for members of Congress. He co-organized the first public conference on metabolic psychiatry, and co-leads a privately funded study evaluating outcomes of Accord's pioneering interventions.He serves on advisory and non-profit boards, including Metabolic Mind, Meru Health, The Metabolic Revolution, and the Coalition for Metabolic Health, helping advance the field both clinically and publicly.https://accordmh.com/our-team/matt-bernstein/ Contact Mikki:https://mikkiwilliden.com/https://www.facebook.com/mikkiwillidennutritionhttps://www.instagram.com/mikkiwilliden/https://linktr.ee/mikkiwilliden

Creating clarity in nutrition is essential for empowerment. Metabolic syndrome has significantly increased in recent years. 1.54 billion adults are affected by metabolic syndrome. Fundamental nutrition education is lacking in society. Routine and consistency in eating are crucial for health. Carbohydrates often dominate meals, overshadowing protein. Fiber intake is typically much lower than recommended levels. Eating healthy can feel radical in today's food culture. Safety and predictability in eating lead to better health outcomes. Reducing mental load around food choices is crucial. A one-to-one ratio of carbs to protein is beneficial. Front-loading calories can enhance energy levels throughout the day. Fiber plays a significant role in digestive health and overall well-being. Tracking food intake can help identify dietary patterns. Empowerment comes from understanding and taking responsibility for health. Simple dietary changes can lead to significant improvements in health. Meal prep can simplify daily nutrition decisions. Carbs should be included in a healthy diet, focusing on fiber-rich options. Radical responsibility is key to achieving health goals.   Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Wild Medicine and Eating Habits 03:49 Understanding the Impact of Uninformed Eating 06:52 The Metabolic Health Crisis 10:36 Fundamentals of Nutrition and Eating Patterns 16:07 The Importance of Consistency in Eating 20:26 The Role of Stress and Hormones in Eating 29:49 Framework for Safe and Consistent Eating 30:58 Simplifying Nutrition: Reducing Mental Load 32:28 The Importance of Carbs and Protein Ratios 34:15 Front-Loading Calories for Better Energy 38:50 The Role of Fiber in Digestive Health 41:43 Taking Radical Responsibility for Health 49:03 Empowerment Through Understanding Nutrition   Stay Wild.

Dr. Marie-Pierre St-Onge, PhD, is a professor of nutritional medicine at Columbia University School of Medicine and an expert on the bidirectional relationship between nutrition and sleep. We discuss how even moderate sleep loss increases appetite, changes hunger-related hormones, and causes weight gain, even when calories are not increased. We also explain how meal timing and specific foods, like fiber, ginger, saturated fat, and various oils, affect sleep onset, sleep quality, and metabolism. Throughout the conversation, we discuss specific foods and diets that directly support weight loss, better sleep, and long-term cardiometabolic health. Read the show notes at hubermanlab.com.

Forget muscle repair. The reason sleep actually transforms your health is happening inside your skull every night — and it's not what Matthew Walker's TED Talk made famous. In this episode of Health Longevity Secrets, Robert Lufkin MD breaks down the real science of sleep: the glymphatic system that flushes beta-amyloid from your brain, the hippocampal "sharp wave ripples" that lock in memories, the slow-wave growth hormone pulse you can't make up, and the testosterone and insulin damage that happens in a single week of short sleep. He closes with the single most evidence-based intervention you can do tonight — and it's not melatonin. CHAPTERS: 00:00 — Why The "Sleep For Muscle Repair" Story Is Wrong 01:00 — Part 1: The Muscle Repair Myth (mTOR, Protein Synthesis, 24–48hr Window) 02:00 — Part 2: The Molecular Truth — The Glymphatic System 02:35 — The 60% Brain Cleaning Cycle (Xie 2013, Beta-Amyloid Clearance) 03:30 — Sharp Wave Ripples and Memory Consolidation in Deep Sleep 03:55 — How Sleep Onset Drives 70% of Your Nightly Growth Hormone 04:30 — Sleep Restriction Drops Testosterone 10–15% in One Week 05:00 — Part 3: The Hormonal Layer — Insulin, Cortisol, Ghrelin 05:15 — 4 Nights, 4 Hours: Prediabetes In Healthy Young Men (Spiegel 1999) 06:30 — Ghrelin, Leptin, and Why You Wake Up Hungrier 07:00 — Part 4: The Practical Tactic — Thermal Regulation 07:30 — The 2–3°F Core Temperature Drop That Triggers Sleep 08:00 — Why a Hot Shower 90 Minutes Before Bed Beats Melatonin 08:45 — The 65–68°F Bedroom Rule 09:15 — Part 5: The Reframe — Sleep Is Neurological, Not Muscular KEY TAKEAWAYS: • Muscle protein synthesis runs 24–48 hours post-workout and does not require sleep architecture — it requires amino acids, energy, and time. • During sleep, your brain's interstitial space expands ~60% to flush metabolic waste, including the beta-amyloid and tau proteins implicated in Alzheimer's. • ~70% of your daily growth hormone is released in the first slow-wave cycle — disrupt the first 90 minutes and you blunt the whole night. • Four nights of 4-hour sleep produced prediabetes-level insulin resistance in healthy young men (Spiegel et al., Lancet 1999). • A hot bath or shower 60–90 minutes before bed shortens sleep latency more reliably than melatonin (Haghayegh et al., Sleep Medicine Reviews 2019). Pair with a 65–68°F bedroom.

For so many women, the word "metabolism" has become tied to frustration, body shame, and the feeling that something must be wrong with them. You try to eat less, move more, push harder, and still feel like your body is not responding the way you hoped it would. Metabolism gets talked about constantly, but almost never explained correctly. But what if your body is not fighting against you at all, and has actually been trying to protect you this entire time? In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Alyssa Olenick. She holds a PhD in Exercise Physiology, is a certified sports nutritionist, and a CrossFit Level 2 Trainer whose entire research background is rooted in metabolism and metabolic health. She is also a competitive strength athlete and ultramarathon runner who trains the way she teaches. What she brings to this conversation is the kind of clarity around women's health, strength training, and cardiovascular fitness that most women never get access to from a single source. In this episode, you will discover: The part of metabolic health that has nothing to do with calories or weight What most women are never told about how resistance training actually works in the body What your fitness level actually signals about your long term women's health Why endurance training and strength training are not interchangeable, and why that distinction matters How hybrid training fits into a real schedule without overhauling everything you are already doing What cardio workout routines are actually building in your body over time Where athletic performance fits in even if you have never thought of yourself as an athlete This conversation is grounded in science but written for real life, and it meets you exactly where you are with your body and your health. The science of how your body works is not as complicated as it has been made out to be, and this episode shows exactly why. Let's rebrand wellness together!

What simple daily habits can help you protect your metabolism as you age? In this episode, I explain why focusing entirely on standard scale weight is deeply damaging to your metabolism and overall long-term health. I share actionable insights into why we must shift our perspective toward a muscle-first approach by diligently tracking true body composition over time. Ultimately, while chronological aging is an inevitable privilege, maintaining a vibrant, strong, and powerful body remains a deliberate choice you can make every day. What you'll learn: (01:20) Focus on true body composition rather than traditional weight loss to avoid damaging your metabolic health. (06:07) Understand how poorly designed companion diets alongside GLP-1 medications can trigger severe skeletal muscle loss. (08:59) Discover why building skeletal muscle functions beautifully as metabolic Spanx and a critical sugar sponge for your body. (14:02) Learn the startling rate at which women lose muscle size, overall strength, and explosive power starting at age thirty. (15:29) Implement simple objective office measurements like grip strength or the sit-to-stand test to track physical muscle quality. (25:09) Maximize your physical transformation by balancing the three foundational pillars of muscle development: fuel, movement, and recovery. (27:51) Adjust your calculated daily protein goals to target body weight parameters that successfully overcome age-related anabolic resistance. (45:45) Capitalize on small daily increments of vigorous intermittent lifestyle physical activity to drastically lower all-cause mortality risks. Love the podcast?

Registered dietitian nutritionist Leyla Muedin discusses the growing interest in biological age versus chronological age and explains that biological aging is modifiable through consistent lifestyle choices. She outlines common measurement tools and biomarkers, including epigenetic clocks (DNA methylation), telomere length, VO2 max, inflammatory markers, grip strength, and muscle mass, noting that genetics account for only about 25–40% of biological aging variation. Key interventions include regular aerobic and resistance exercise, protein-adequate nutrition to preserve muscle and prevent sarcopenia (with whey protein and leucine-rich foods noted), improved sleep, stress management, reducing processed foods and visceral fat, and lowering chronic inflammation (CRP, IL-6). She also reviews hormetic stressors such as sauna use and mentions red/near-infrared light and sun exposure without sunglasses. Leyla shares client examples showing biological age can worsen or improve, and encourages repeat testing after lifestyle changes.
