Are reverse diets only for people who've dieted before? Not even close. In this episode, we unpack how reverse dieting supports fat loss, metabolism health, and sustainable weight loss—even if you've never been in a traditional calorie deficit. If you're tracking macros and feeling stuck in a plateau, or wondering why your metabolism seems to have hit the brakes, this is for you. You'll learn the two most common scenarios I see when women need a reverse diet, how metabolic adaptation can sabotage your results, and why reverse dieting might be your most powerful step forward.

As we get older, have you ever wondered why the exercise advice we've been given doesn't seem to work as well as it once did? As we move into our 40s and beyond, our physiology changes in ways that can often feel confusing and frustrating. But what if we could harness those changes to feel stronger, healthier and more resilient than ever before? My guest this week is exercise physiologist and nutritional scientist, Dr Stacy Sims. Stacy is dedicated to helping active women – and the people who support them – take back control of their bodies, health and lives through science-based knowledge and practical tools. She is the author of two books, including ‘ROAR: How to Match Your Food and Fitness to Your Unique Female Physiology for Optimum Performance, Great Health, and a Strong, Lean Body for Life' and the creator of her signature course, Women Are Not Small Men, after recognising the lack of research specifically done on women in exercise, nutrition and medicine. In this conversation, we discuss: Why conventional fitness advice often fails women in midlife, and how we can move beyond outdated recommendations How hormonal changes during perimenopause affect everything from metabolism and muscle strength to mood and sleep The crucial role of resistance training in maintaining bone density, muscle mass and cognitive function as we get older Why high-intensity interval training can boost our metabolism, balance blood sugar and reduce harmful belly fat How the language around “muscle toning” can be unhelpful, and why lifting heavier weights is so important for building real strength and protecting our long-term health Practical ways to start strength training safely, even if you don't enjoy the gym, and simple strategies for fitting effective movement into a busy week with minimal time How building strength now supports our independence, resilience and vitality, helping us stay active, prevent injuries and feel confident as we age This conversation is an invitation for all of us to rethink what's possible as we grow older. Stacy's insights remind us that with the right information and support, we can build strength, confidence and better health at any stage of life. And if you find this episode helpful, why not share it with the women in your life – friends, family or colleagues – so they can feel empowered and informed about their bodies, too.

In this episode, Dr. Jockers dives deep with Dr. Sara Pugh into how light influences your mitochondria, hormones, and inflammation in ways food alone never could. You'll hear how sunrise sets your body clock, why sunset prepares your system for rest, and how the balance of light and darkness fuels cellular health.   You'll learn how artificial blue light at night can disrupt cortisol, blood sugar, and cravings, and why the wrong kind of light exposure can be just as damaging as poor nutrition. Discover why your mitochondria respond to light as much as to food and how this hidden factor impacts your mood, metabolism, and resilience.   We also explore practical steps—like grounding, sauna use, and cold therapy—that boost your energy and improve sleep. Along the way, you'll find out why sunscreen and sunglasses may do more harm than good, and how structured water and omega-3 fats fit into the bigger picture of cellular repair.

Have you ever felt like your metabolism is broken? Or maybe you've noticed that as you've gotten older fat loss feels harder? You're not imagining things. But your metabolism isn't broken, it's just adaptive. It changes with your hormones, the amount of muscle you have, your lifestyle, activity, even the way you eat. In today's episode I'm going to break down what metabolism is, the 4 pieces that make it up, how perimenopause affects each one, and most importantly, what you can do to make your metabolism responsive again. Train with me in the EmPowered Elite Monthly Membership: https://train.macroswithem.com/groups/4143/join/HAPI Supplements: save 10% with code emmahttps://hapibodi.com/The EmPowered Community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/macroswithemcommunity/Follow Emma on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/macroswithem/Follow Emma on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/macroswithem

If live feels extremely heavy right now, you're not alone. I once had a conversation with a mentor around this topic about what to do when life is just heavy.  Sometimes we're weighed down because we aren't managing our thoughts well. Sometimes it's because we're in environments that don't serve us.  But other times, life is just heavy and no amount of mindset work or environment shifts seem to fix it right away. In those moments, the best thing we can do is support ourselves until the heaviness passes. In this episode, I share practical and compassionate ways to care for yourself when you feel overwhelmed. We'll talk about why stepping away from social media protects your mental space, and how serving others whether with a simple text or through volunteering can actually ease your own burdens.  You'll hear about the power of healthy community and why it's vital to resist the urge to isolate. I'll also share ideas for lighthearted activities that bring a sense of play, and small but powerful actions you can take for your body, like cooking a nourishing meal or going on a walk. We'll close by exploring gratitude practices, future-focused dreaming, and the importance of remembering that emotional states are temporary. Life isn't meant to feel easy all the time, but with the right tools, you can support yourself through the heavy seasons. Time Stamps: (2:02) Heavy Emotions This Week(6:02) The Extreme Recent Examples(9:11) Filling A Void Through Doom Scrolling(10:32) Doing Something For Someone Else(11:02) Get Around Community(16:07) Finding Playful Activities(23:42) Daydreaming About The Future---------------------Follow Abbe on IG: @Blowoutsbyabbeandmore---------------------Find Out More Information on Vital Spark Coaching---------------------Follow @vanessagfitness on Instagram for daily fitness tips & motivation. ---------------------Download Our FREE Metabolism-Boosting Workout Program---------------------Join the Women's Metabolism Secrets Facebook Community for 25+ videos teaching you how to start losing fat without hating your life!---------------------Click here to send me a message on Facebook and we'll see how I can help or what best free resources I can share!---------------------Interested in 1-on-1 Coaching with my team of Metabolism & Hormone Experts?

In this episode of Keeping Abreast, Dr. Jenn Simmons welcomes Dr. Ashley Lucas, a former professional ballerina turned PhD nutritionist and founder of PhD Weight Loss. Dr. Lucas shares her remarkable journey from struggling with under-eating and injury in the ballet world to helping over 11,000 people lose nearly 500,000 pounds by addressing the real root of weight issues: metabolic health.Together, Dr. Jenn and Dr. Ashley expose the myths of “eat less, move more,” unpack the dangers of visceral fat, and explain why true, lasting weight loss is more about hormones and mindset than willpower.

A single can of cola floods your system with nearly 100% absorbable inorganic phosphate, triggering hormonal shifts that disrupt vitamin D, calcium balance, and kidney function Phosphate in soda raises levels of FGF23, a hormone that accelerates vascular calcification, weakens bones, and increases your long-term risk of heart attack or stroke, even if your labs are normal Unlike natural sources, phosphate additives in soda are rapidly absorbed and bypass digestive safeguards, placing a silent burden on your kidneys and arteries with every sip When combined with high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS), soda creates a metabolic double hit — HFCS promotes liver fat, raises uric acid, and drives insulin resistance, while phosphate sabotages hormonal and mineral balance Replacing soda with sparkling citrus water, magnesium glycinate, and vitamin K2 helps support your bones, protect your heart, and reverse the silent damage phosphate leaves behind

I'm Stacey Simms and every other Friday I bring you a short episode with the top diabetes stories and headlines happening now. XX Accessibility to modern diabetes technology directly correlates with A1c among children with type 1 diabetes globally. Big, cross-sectional study, conducted in 81 pediatric diabetes centers in 56 countries, found that a greater extent of reimbursement for continuous glucose monitoring (CGM), insulin pumps, glucose meters, and insulin was associated with lower A1c levels. Partha S. Kar, MD, Type 1 Diabetes & Technology lead of the National Health Service England, told Medscape Medical News, “As is now being shown in countries such as UK with widespread uptake of technology, there is now population-wide shift in A1c not seen before.”   He added, “If policymakers are serious about bringing A1c at a population level to sub-7.5% - 8% levels, then without technology it would be incredibly difficult to achieve, in my experience and opinion. Leaving the median A1c of a population at above 7.5%-8% goes with complications so that's a decision regarding investment many will have to make in the near future.”   In an accompanying editorial, Elizabeth R. Seaquist, MD, professor of diabetes, endocrinology, and metabolism and co-director of the Institute for Diabetes, Obesity, and Metabolism at the University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, called it “striking” that access to technology in and of itself was associated with improved glycemic control, given that multidisciplinary team care is also needed to provide education and behavioral or psychological support.     https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/diabetes-tech-access-linked-a1c-kids-t1d-globally-2025a1000nn6 XX A man with type 1 in Illinois has received the first FDA-approved islet-cell replacement treatment, Lantidra, and  he is now producing his own insulin. The treatment works by restoring the body's beta cells, potentially eliminating the need for insulin injections.   The FDA approved Lantidra (donislecel) in 2023. Lantidra uses donor cells and requires lifelong immunosuppressive drugs.     Lantidra is only available at University of Illinois Chicago Health. Other universities, such as the University of Pennsylvania, continue to do islet cell transplants as part of clinical trials. Early data has shown that a majority of participants in the Lantidra clinical study were able to achieve some level of insulin independence, but it's unclear whether the benefits of donislecel outweigh the treatment's safety risks. Nearly 87 percent of participants reported infection-related adverse events, and post-operation complications included liver lacerations, bruising of the liver (hepatic hematoma), and anemia. One patient died of multi-organ failure from sepsis, which Lantidra maker CellTrans stated was “probably related” to the use of either immunosuppression or study drugs.   In addition, some industry leaders have raised the question of whether it's ethical to commercialize the use of deceased donor islet cells. https://diatribe.org/diabetes-research/first-fda-approved-islet-cell-transplant-performed?utm_campaign=feed&utm_medium=social&utm_source=later   XX Patients in the U.S. now have access to the first generic GLP-1 treatment approved for weight loss as Teva has launched its copycat of Novo Nordisk's injected Saxenda (liraglutide).   The compound, which is a GLP-1 forerunner of Novo's semaglutide products Ozempic and Wegovy, has been approved by the FDA to treat adults with obesity and those who are overweight and have weight-related medical problems.     Saxenda also is endorsed for pediatric patients ages 12 through 17 who are obese and weigh at least 60 kg (132 pounds). The treatment is for both triggering and maintaining weight loss. Saxenda is not the first GLP-1 drug that is available as a generic. In June of last year, Teva also was the first company to launch a knockoff version of Novo's Victoza, which is the same compound as Saxenda but has been approved only for patients with Type 2 diabetes. Sales of the branded versions of both Victoza and Saxenda have declined significantly in recent years as demand for Novo's semaglutide and Eli Lilly's tirzepatide products have skyrocketed. In addition, marketers of compounded products have been aggressively competing for market share in the GLP-1 space. https://www.fiercepharma.com/pharma/saxenda-knockoff-teva-launches-first-generic-glp-1-obesity   XX Metformin could cut the risk of Long COVID by 64% in overweight or obese adults who started the drug within 90 days of infection. The large observational study, published in Clinical Infectious Diseases, analysed health records of over 624,000 UK adults with COVID-19 between March 2020 and July 2023. Among these, nearly 3,000 patients who began metformin treatment soon after diagnosis were tracked for a year. Compared to non-users, their likelihood of developing Long COVID, defined as persistent symptoms 90 days or more after infection, was dramatically lower. https://www.ndtv.com/health/metformin-cuts-risk-of-long-covid-by-64-why-the-diabetes-pill-is-not-for-everyone-9242332 XX Forty-four percent of people age 15 and older living with diabetes are undiagnosed, so they don't know they have it, according to data analysis published Monday in the journal The Lancet Diabetes & Endocrinology. The study looked at data from 204 countries and territories from 2000 to 2023 in a systematic review of published literature and surveys. “The majority of people with diabetes that we report on in the study have type 2 diabetes,” said Lauryn Stafford , the lead author of the study.   “We found that 56% of people with diabetes are aware that they have the condition,” said Stafford, a researcher for the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation. “Globally, there's a lot of variation geographically, and also by age. So, generally, higher-income countries were doing better at diagnosing people than low- and middle-income countries.” People under 35 years were much less likely to be diagnosed if they had diabetes than people in middle age or older. Just “20% of young adults with diabetes were aware of their condition,” Stafford said. https://www.cnn.com/2025/09/08/health/diabetes-undiagnosed-half-of-americans-wellness XX A team of Hong Kong scientists is developing an injectable treatment that could potentially improve blood flow in diabetes patients' feet, in the hopes that it will reduce the need for amputation by rebuilding tissue in the arteries.   They also hope to apply the treatment to peripheral artery disease or PAD, a condition caused by the build-up of fatty deposits in arteries that affect blood circulation in the feet. “Traditional treatments for people suffering from poor blood flow in their legs are stent implantation or bypass surgery, which is invasive,” said Wong, who is also the co-founder of a biotechnology company called NutrigeneAI. He said it was his dream to turn research in the academic field into actual clinical treatments. But he added that the team still needed three to four years for further research on the treatment.   https://www.scmp.com/news/hong-kong/health-environment/article/3324671/hong-kong-scientists-developing-new-blood-flow-treatment-aid-diabetes-patients XX   Tandem Diabetes announces Health Canada authorization for distribution of the Tandem t:slim mobile application for Android and iPhone users.

The change was a mutual decision, according to the two companies, which said they have signed a memorandum of understanding before a definitive agreement is hammered out by the end of the year. To get started, Senseonics is also set to acquire members of Ascensia's commercial staff—including its CGM president, Brian Hansen, who is slated to become Senseonics' new chief commercial officer. https://www.fiercebiotech.com/medtech/senseonics-retake-eversense-cgm-commercial-control-ascensia-diabetes-care XX Utrecht-based medical device company ViCentra has closed an $85 million Series D round of funding led by Innovation Industries, along with existing investors Partners in Equity and Invest-NL. The round also drew support from EQT Life Sciences and Health Innovations.   The recent capital injection will be used to expand ViCentra's manufacturing capabilities, support regulatory approvals, and strengthen commercial rollout across Europe.   The funds will also be used to launch the next-generation Kaleido 2 patch pump in Europe and prepare for entry into the U.S. market.   The global insulin delivery market is growing quickly due to the increasing number of diabetes cases and demand for effective and user-friendly solutions. The market for insulin pumps is projected to exceed $14 billion by 2034. Patch pumps are the fastest-growing segment, signalling a trend toward compact and wearable devices. And here's where ViCentra is positioned to meet this need, offering a user-friendly, sleek design-led alternative to traditional systems.   Kaleido: design-led insulin delivery Kaleido is the smallest and lightest insulin patch pump developed as a lifestyle product with a particular focus on usability and personalisation.   Designed to feel more like personal technology than a traditional medical device, Kaleido features premium materials, and users can select their own favourite aluminium shells from a range of ten preset colour options.   It integrates with Diabeloop's hybrid closed-loop algorithms (DBLG1 and DBLG2) and is compatible with Dexcom CGM sensors, positioning it within the next generation of automated insulin delivery systems.   “Kaleido is a true disruptor — small, discreet, featherlight, and beautifully designed. It empowers people with diabetes by offering a more personal and distinctive choice in both function and style. Built with empathy and precision, it honours those who live with diabetes every day. With this funding, we can now meet surging European demand and fast-track our entry into the U.S. market. This is a pivotal moment — for ViCentra, and for the community we serve,” said Tom Arnold, Chief Executive Officer at ViCentra.   Improving the quality of life for diabetic patients ViCentra, led by Tom Arnold, is on a mission to improve the lives of those with diabetes.   The company reported that demand for Kaleido in Germany, France, and the Netherlands has already exceeded initial expectations.   ViCentra will present updates on Kaleido at the 61st Annual Meeting of the European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD), taking place September 15–19, 2025, in Vienna.   The company plans to engage with clinicians, investors, and strategic partners to further its role in the evolving diabetes care landscape.   “ViCentra is redefining insulin pump therapy with a platform that truly centres the user experience – combining clinical performance with design simplicity and wearability,” commented Caaj Greebe, Partner at Innovation Industries. “At Innovation Industries, we invest in pioneering companies that blend world-class technology with clear commercial potential. ViCentra exemplifies this by delivering a next-generation system addressing the urgent need for better treatment options in diabetes care. We're proud to lead this investment round and partner with Tom and the team as they deepen and expand their presence in Europe and prepare for U.S. entry.”   https://techfundingnews.com/dutch-vicentra-secures-85m-to-bring-insulin-patch-pump-to-more-markets/ XX Luna Diabetes announces they've raised more than 23-million dollars in early venture capital to help continue clinical trials and build out its capacity. This is the company that wants to offer a night time only, tiny, temporary insulin pump – to supplement insulin pen use. According to the company, more than 80% of the improvements in blood sugar from automated insulin delivery systems occur while the user is sleeping. Luna launched a pivotal trial late last year. https://www.fiercebiotech.com/medtech/nighttime-insulin-patch-pump-maker-luna-diabetes-raises-236m   XX Following 15 days and 150 fingerpricks, they're here. The results of the “9 sensor samba“. And what a set of a results…   Well maybe that's overplaying it a little.   Let's just say that the outcome of this n=1 experiment wasn't quite what I expected. One of the established players came out much worse than expected, while a newcomer did a lot better.   Let's dig in, and take a look at the variation. https://www.diabettech.com/cgm/the-nine-sensor-samba-results-revealed/   XX Hard work and perseverance define ranch life, but one man in eastern Montana takes it to another level. At 90, he's still living independently on the ranch he built from the ground up. Even more remarkable? He's a type 1 diabetic.   Bob Delp still begins each day just like he did decades ago, waking up on his ranch near Richey, Montana.   “I always thought if I could ever get a ranch and run a hundred cows, that's what I wanted to do from the time I was a kid,” said Delp.   He made that dream real, the hard way; after coming home from the army, he taught school, hayed for seven cents a bale and saved every cent he could.     “I worked at it real hard because I always felt like it was going to be part of getting me to that ranch that I always wanted,” said Delp.   He did it all while managing type 1 diabetes, a diagnosis that came with few answers and little hope back in the 1950s.   “The doctors tell me being a type 1 diabetic for 66 years isn't supposed to happen. Back then, it was a real challenge,” added Delp.   Statistically, it's almost unheard of. Fewer than 90 people in the world have lived more than 70 years with type 1 diabetes.     Bob credits his late wife, Donna, for helping him beat the odds.   “She has been key in that I always ate on time.”   They've faced their share of storms, both in health and out on the land. Not long after moving to Richey, a heavy snowstorm nearly tore everything apart just after they'd stepped out for dinner.   “If Donna hadn't said it was time to eat, we wouldn't have made it out of there. I guess that's one time that made me happy to have diabetes. And I think that saved us,” said Delp.     Now, he still checks his blood sugar daily but trusts his hands more than high-tech insulin pumps.   “I'm not satisfied with the sensors they have today. I just don't think they're accurate.”   To many, Bob's survival is extraordinary. To him, it's luck.   “The genes are there already, I can't change that so I guess I would have to say just lots of good luck,” said Delp.     And through it all, optimism has been his compass.   “You might fumble the ball, but if you're determined to be a winner, you'll recover that fumble someday,” said Delp.   He still welds nearly every day. Not because he has to, but because it keeps him going.   “As long as I keep doing something like this, I will not be in the nursing home,” said Delp.   https://www.kfyrtv.com/2025/08/09/against-all-odds-montana-man-thrives-with-type-1-diabetes-90/ XX Today, Dexcom is building on this belief and breaking new ground with the launch of its first open call across the U.S. and Canada in search of the next diabetes advocates—giving people with all types of diabetes a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to raise awareness and share their voice on a global scale in the company's World Diabetes Day campaign (Nov. 14) and beyond.  Who is eligible?: Anyone age 2+ living with all types of diabetes or prediabetes can be nominated by themselves or by someone who knows them.

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.

The thyroid might be a small gland, but it controls big processes in the body — including how it turns food and oxygen into energy. It's estimated that one in seven people are affected by thyroid issues — but many may not even be aware that it's their thyroid that's behind the symptoms they're experiencing.   In this episode, Greg Pippert, MD, joins us to speak about the important role of the thyroid in overall health, including sharing common symptoms of thyroid imbalance and key biomarkers that can indicate how well the thyroid is functioning.   This episode of Life Time Talks is part of our series on Performance and Longevity with MIORA.   Find the episode highlights, get related resources and view the transcript for this episode at https://experiencelife.lifetime.life/podcast/how-to-optimize-your-thyroid-and-fuel-your-bodys-metabolism-performance-longevity-series   Have thoughts you'd like to share or topic ideas for future episodes?

Ever feel like you're going through the motions with your health routines, but seeing diminishing returns? This episode dives deep into two game-changing concepts that might revolutionize your healing journey.First, Dr. Stacy tackles the evolution of routines—how to recognize when habits that once served you have become burdens instead of blessings. She reveals the subtle signs that your daily rituals have lost their meaning and explains why being consistent in showing up for yourself while remaining fluid in what that looks like can be transformative. Rather than rigidly following someone else's protocol or morning routine, learn to attune to what your body needs in different seasons of life and how to create meaningful consistency without the all-or-nothing mentality that keeps so many of us stuck.The second half of the episode unveils a powerful paradigm shift in understanding gut health that's rarely discussed in wellness circles: the critical connection between metabolic dysfunction and gut issues. Dr. Stacey explains how insulin resistance, blood sugar instability, and mitochondrial dysfunction can directly drive gut inflammation, disrupt barrier integrity, and impair digestive function—often making gut protocols ineffective until the metabolic piece is addressed.You'll discover why systemic inflammation from metabolic dysfunction is enough to cause leaky gut on its own, how high insulin affects bile flow and nutrient absorption, and why addressing metabolic flexibility might be the missing link in your healing journey. If you've tried multiple gut protocols without lasting success, this episode offers a fresh perspective that could finally connect the dots.Ready to stop chasing symptoms and start addressing root causes? This episode provides the framework to evolve both your daily practices and your understanding of how metabolism and gut health work together.

This episode is packed with paradigm-shifting advice, including: Why your indoor life is a "blood sugar disaster" and how your LED lights are secretly spiking your cortisol and insulin. The incredible infrared effect: How simply eating your breakfast outside can lead to a dramatically better blood sugar response than the same meal indoors. Practical, powerful steps to sync with nature's rhythm, including the non-negotiable magic of sunrise and sunset light. The game-changing power of orange-lens glasses and why pitch-black darkness is essential for metabolic repair and deep healing.

In this episode, Ben Azadi reveals the shocking truth about seven “healthy” fruits and vegetables that may actually be harming your body, fueling inflammation, and making fat loss harder. You'll learn why foods like spinach, beets, raspberries, figs, corn, soy, and bell peppers can disrupt your gut, hormones, and metabolism — and the healthier alternatives you should focus on instead.

What if the foods you think are healthy are actually disrupting your biology? From sugar marketed as a performance tool to “whole grains” that drive cravings, this episode uncovers how hidden traps in modern nutrition can hijack your brain, wreck your metabolism, and accelerate aging. You'll learn how to rethink daily eating so it fuels energy, resilience, and long-term health instead of quietly sabotaging it. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Max Lugavere, health journalist, filmmaker, and bestselling author of Genius Foodsand The Genius Kitchen. Max is one of the most trusted voices in nutrition and functional medicine, translating complex science into practical tools you can use right now. His work has been featured on The Today Show, PBS, and across global media for helping people reclaim health through smarter food and lifestyle choices. In this re-run, Dave and Max break down the real impact of sugar, salt, and food processing on your brain and body. They explore how cooking methods change health outcomes, when fasting and ketosis become powerful tools, and why supplements, nootropics, and trace minerals fill gaps in the modern diet. They also tackle controversial topics like carnivore diets, cold therapy, and whether “healthy” plant-based foods are truly supporting resilience—or quietly eroding it. You'll Learn: • The biggest nutrition myths that silently damage health and performance • How sugar can act as both poison and fuel depending on context • Why cooking methods make the difference between nourishment and toxicity • The overlooked role of minerals, supplements, and culinary literacy • How nootropics, cold therapy, and sleep optimization reset your brain • Why some “health foods” accelerate aging instead of protecting you • The truth about carnivore diets, industrial farming, and sustainability • When fasting, ketosis, and carb cycling create optimal results This episode gives you a science-backed blueprint to hack your nutrition, sharpen your brain, and extend your longevity with foods that truly support your biology.

This 60-minute masterclass distills the most important takeaways from their conversation into clear, actionable steps for fat loss, body recomposition, and metabolic health.

Angela and special guest Eric Edmeades discuss the intricate relationship between diet, exercise, and women's health, particularly during challenging life stages such as perimenopause, and look at the common misconception that exercise is the primary solution for weight loss, emphasising instead the critical role of nutrition in achieving metabolic flexibility. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Nutrition is emphasised as the primary factor in achieving health and body composition, with food being considered more important than exercise For many women, particularly those under stress, intense exercise can lead to the release of stress hormones, which may hinder weight loss efforts Women may benefit more from less structured, community-oriented forms of exercise (like Zumba or Jazzercise) that allow for multitasking and social interaction, rather than high-intensity, focused workouts that can trigger stress responses. The Hadzabe people have unique cultural practices regarding childbirth and menstruation, with significant taboos surrounding male involvement in these experiences. This reflects a broader cultural context that influences women's health and social roles. TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: [00:01:08] Exercise vs. diet priority. [00:05:03] Perimenopausal women's exercise struggles. [00:07:10] Men's presence at childbirth. [00:10:05] Female circumcision and social conditioning.
