Want to train smarter, fuel better, and understand what your body actually needs? This episode unpacks the real science behind endurance training and fueling—no pseudoscience, no gimmicks. We start with a quick announcement about our Boston Marathon 2026 prep webinar (covering pacing, fueling, and course strategy from Hopkinton to Boylston), then move into a “Hot or Not” segment on popular running recovery tools: KT tape, dry needling, cupping, and stretching versus mobility.Next, we tackle a listener question on calf cramps during long races—what causes them, how to respond in the moment, and how to prevent them through smarter training and fueling.Finally, we close with a deep dive into metabolism for runners: ATP production, the limits of fat oxidation, how and why the “crossover point” matters, and why fasted or low-carb approaches can increase injury risk and reduce performance—especially for women.⏱️ Timestamps00:00 – Intro & Boston 2026 webinar invite04:00 – Hot or Not: KT tape, dry needling, cupping, stretching vs. mobility22:00 – Listener Q: Calf cramps—on-course fixes and long-term prevention40:00 – Metabolism 101: fat vs. carb fueling, crossover point, LEA/RED-S risksSubscribe for more evidence-based endurance coaching.Learn about 1:1 coaching at microcosm-coaching.com and follow @microcosmcoaching on Instagram.

Welcome to your Midweek Motivation!In this episode, Gina gets fired up about a conversation that's long overdue in the weight loss world—how to actually maintain it. Coming in live from her trip to Obesity Week in Atlanta, while Odette holds down the fort, they reflect on the deeper purpose behind the tweaks in The Program, especially during the Feeding the Metabolism week. Gina shares her insights from Obesity Week, where tools for weight loss are everywhere, but conversations around sustaining results are still missing. Not here, though. This episode is all about reinforcing that what the Livy Community is doing is the conversation. It's the mindset, the habits, and the real-life follow-through that make weight loss sustainable, and that's what sets this method apart.You can find the full video hosted at:https://www.facebook.com/groups/ginalivymaintenanceandmindfulnessTo learn more about The Livy Method and our Maintenance & Mindfulness group, visit livymethod.com.

In a story from ancient Greek philosophy, Hercules faces a choice between two paths: one promising pleasure and ease; the other, hardship and struggle — but also growth and greatness. According to today's guest, this ancient parable is more relevant than ever.Dr. Paul Taylor, a psychophysiologist and the author of the new book The Hardiness Effect, returns to the show to argue that comfort has become our default mode — and it's making us mentally and physically sick. To reclaim health and meaning, we must actively choose the path of arete — a life of effort, engagement, and challenge.Paul first outlines the four traits that define a psychologically hardy person and how we grow by embracing and even relishing discomfort. We then dive into the physiological side of hardiness. We discuss how intentionally seeking stressors can strengthen both body and mind and some of the practices and protocols that lead to optimal health. We end our conversation with what tackling heroic, Herculean labors looks like today.Resources Related to the PodcastPaul's previous appearance on the AoM podcast: Episode #941 — How to Avoid Death by ComfortAoM Podcast #1,087: Why You Need the Good Stress of SocializingAoM Podcast #793: The New Science of Metabolism and Weight Loss with Herman PontzerThe Choice of Hercules AoM podcast on the benefits of sunlight"Don't Die: Eat More Small Fish" by Michael EasterAoM Article: Nature's Prescription — The 20-5-3 Rule for Spending Time OutdoorsNorwegian 4X4 HIIT ProtocolAoM article on Zone 2 CardioOmega-3 testingConnect With Paul TaylorPaul's websiteSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Tanya unpacks what's really behind a “slow metabolism” in midlife and why it's not a matter of willpower — it's about physiology. Learn how stress, hormones, sleep, and under-eating quietly train your body to conserve energy, plus the simple daily practices that reignite metabolism naturally. This episode sets the stage for Tanya's upcoming series on gut, liver, and hormone health — the foundational steps every woman should take before considering GLP-1s or other peptide therapies. You'll Learn → Why your metabolism isn't broken — it's adaptive The five hormones that drive metabolic health Common midlife habits that accidentally slow metabolism The hidden impact of stress, inflammation, and sleep debt 7 evidence-based strategies to rebuild metabolic balance Why nourishing > restricting when it comes to sustainable energy Key Takeaways You can't out-discipline a dysregulated metabolism.

In this episode, we feature some of the winners of poster and oral presentation competitions at the 2025 ADSA Annual Meeting in Louisville, Kentucky. Abstracts can be found here: ADSA 2025 Annual MeetingMS Oral Presentation, ProductionGuests: Trinidad Fernandez-Wallace and Dr. Lautaro Rostoll-Cangiano, University of Wisconsin-MadisonCo-host: Dr. Laura Niehues, BalchemAbstract 1218: Immunity at the crossroads of cellular metabolism: Navigating T helper shifts in the periparturient period of dairy cows. (0:08)Trinidad found that T-helper cell metabolism and proliferation were both upregulated after calving, which may impact the effectiveness of immune responses during the transition period. The group discusses if T-helper cells could be used as a marker of inflammation in the future and how Trinidad's results may have been different if samples had been collected between 3 and 28 days after calving.PhD Oral Presentation, ProductionGuests: Natnicha Taechachokevivat and Dr. Rafael Neves, Purdue UniversityCo-host: Dr. Sion Richards, Balchem Abstract 1107: Relationships between systemic inflammation, subclinical hypocalcemia, and hyperketonemia in clinically healthy Holstein cows. (8:07)Natnicha investigated the association of plasma haptoglobin (an inflammatory marker) on days 1 and 3 in milk with subclinical hypocalcemia and hyperketonemia. Systemic inflammation appears to be associated with subclinical hypocalcemia and hyperketonemia and reduced milk yield in multiparous cows. When multiparous cows exhibited both inflammation and metabolic disease indicators, they produced less milk; however, when primiparous cows exhibited both inflammation and metabolic disease indicators, they produced more milk. 3 Minute ThesisGuests: Savitha Saikumar and Dr. Diwaker Vyas, University of FloridaCo-host: Dr. Laura Niehues, BalchemAbstract 1548: Effects of peripartal supplementation of prototype postbiotics on intake, rumen fermentation, colostrum quality, and performance in transition dairy cows. (15:14)Savitha investigated the effects of a prototype postbiotic supplement in transition cows from 35 days before calving to 63 days after calving. Cows on the postbiotic treatment received 25 grams per day topdressed on their TMR. Before calving, the postbiotic had no effect on dry matter intake, body condition sore, body weight, or total VFAs. After calving, the postbiotic increased dry matter intake and milk yield after 6 weeks, and increased energy-corrected milk and fat-corrected milk with no effect on body weight, body condition score, or rumen fermentation profile.PhD Poster Guest: Amanda Fischer-Tlustos, University of Guelph Abstract 2012: Characterization of dry-period mammary acetate and glucose metabolism and their association with colostrum production in multiparous Holstein cattle. (25:15)Amanda's research evaluated acetate and glucose metabolism in the mammary gland during the dry and calving periods to better understand how colostrum is made. Acetate uptake by the udder remained fairly constant until one week before calving, when it started to increase. Glucose uptake did not increase until the onset of calving. Previous lactation milk production and far-off mammary metabolism were both negatively correlated with colostrum production. Amanda hypothesizes that high producing cows who have trouble drying off may have high amounts of metabolic activity in the mammary gland when they should have low activity, which may result in lower colostrum production at the subsequent calving. PhD Oral Presentation, Southern Branch DivisionGuests: Bridger Sparks and Dr. Clarissa Strieder-Barboza, Texas Tech UniversityCo-host: Dr. Ryan Pralle, BalchemAbstract 1215: Adipose tissue neuro-like cell profile changes with ketosis in dairy cows. (33:05)Bridger investigated neuro-like cells in the adipose tissue of cows with or without subclinical ketosis. The transcriptional profile of neuro-like cells changed when collected from cows with subclinical ketosis, which may indicate a potential regulatory role in adipose tissue metabolism. Perhaps modulation of neuro-like cells could potentially alleviate excessive adipose mobilization in the postpartum period. ADSA Graduate Student Division HighlightsGuests: Evelyn Yufeng Lin, North Carolina State University; Miranda Farricker, Cornell University; Conor McCabe, University of California-Davis; Dr. Maurice Eastridge, Ohio State University. (40:45) Dr. Eastridge is the chair of the ADSA Foundation and explains some of the Foundation's current projects. Evelyn and Conor are past presidents of the ADSA Graduate Student Division, and Miranda is the incoming president. Each student gives a bit of background on themselves and their research and describes what the Graduate Student Division does and how they foster new graduate students in ADSA.  Please subscribe and share with your industry friends to invite more people to join us at the Real Science Exchange virtual pub table.  If you want one of our Real Science Exchange t-shirts, screenshot your rating, review, or subscription, and email a picture to anh.marketing@balchem.com.

If you've ever wondered why losing weight after 40 feels harder than ever, even when you're doing “all the right things” - you are not alone.In this powerful episode of Nourish with Michelle Fox, I share my personal journey of healing with hormone expert Kimberly Cunningham. We get real about the role hormones play in weight, metabolism, muscle, energy, and cravings…and why willpower is not the problem.It is an honor to open up about my own experience: how I began with lab work and testosterone therapy, and why Kimberly had me wait three months before beginning Tirzepatide. Kimberly's thoughtful and thorough approach made all the difference. No shortcuts - just informed, empowered, medically supervised support.What we cover in Episode 79:• Why traditional weight loss advice fails a lot of women• The hormone–metabolism connection (especially testosterone!)• Michelle's personal journey: labs, then testosterone, then Tirzepatide• How muscle mass and cardio impact longevity• Why community and connection matter for long-term healthShow notes at michellefox.com/podcast!

We are pregnant!  In today's special episode, we want to dive into our fertility story, how we planned for this season, and what shifted in our hearts and lives leading up to trying.  I open up about her early fears around motherhood, how family jokes once shaped her identity, and the moment she knew Omar would be an incredible father. We talk about praying for guidance, timing, and acceptance — and how those prayers brought a deep sense of peace. We also want to share the unexpected way this journey began: a planned fast interrupted by getting sick, a wedding we stayed home from, and Vanessa's Oura Ring signaling that something was different. You'll hear the story of the very earlypregnancy test, how she surprised Omar at the airport, and his reaction when we took another test at home just to be sure. From the beginning, we made the intentional choice to tell our community and loved ones right away, so we could walk through this experience with the people we care about, not in secrecy or fear.  I want to talk through the supplements I'm taking, the changes in my energy, and what nutrition and movement look like right now — including six smaller meals, simple foods, ginger and peppermint tea, and keeping 10k steps and workouts while paying close attention to my body's signals.  And yes… the Mexican flavor cravings are very real. We're honored to share this part of our story with you. If pregnancy, family planning, or listening to others' journeys has ever brought up emotions for you — we see you, and this episode is shared with so much love and compassion. Time Stamps: (1:19) We Are Expecting!(3:47) Some Beginning Context(6:32) Health Issues In May(7:44) My Faith and Motherhood(15:36) Vanessa's Health Tracking(16:42) The Fertility Journey(26:14) The First Pregnancy Test(32:32) Prenatal Supplements(36:22) Current Nutrition Protocol(41:20) Craving Mexican Flavors---------------------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?

This episode, University of Edinburgh PhD candidate Mia Belle Frothingham chats with Dr Nick Lane,  Professor of Evolutionary Biochemistry at the University College London. We talk about Nick's motivation to dethrone the primordial soup theory, what is directed panspermia, and the connection between the origin of life and consciousness.

Your health is your key — and Omar The Pharmacist is here to remind us why preventive care is key to living longer, stronger, and healthier lives.From Healthy eating to Metabolisms , these small steps make a big difference. Don't wait until it's too late — stay proactive, stay protected.

In this episode of The Fit Over 40 Reset Podcast, Brian from Applied Fitness breaks down one of the most misunderstood topics in women's health — how your metabolism really works and how GLP-1 support can help repair it.If you've heard the buzz about medications like semaglutide, Ozempic, or Wegovy and wondered whether they're the secret to lasting fat loss, this episode is for you. Brian explains how GLP-1 actually functions inside your body, why most women use it the wrong way, and how microdosing combined with strength training, hormone-friendly nutrition, and accountability coaching can reignite your metabolism — safely and sustainably.You'll learn:• What GLP-1 hormones do in your body and why they matter after 40• The difference between medical dependency and true metabolic repair• How to pair medication with movement and nutrition to prevent rebound weight gain• Why your metabolism isn't broken — it just needs the right resetIf you're tired of quick fixes and ready to understand the science behind real, lasting results, this episode will show you exactly how to make your metabolism work with you again.

Send us a textHow mitochondria travel between cells and how this hidden communication shapes metabolism, immunity, and even potential therapies.Episode Summary: Dr. Jon Brestoff talks about mitochondrial dynamics inside cells, their transfer between unrelated cells (distinct from inheritance during division), and its roles in adipose tissue communication, macrophage cleanup, and systemic metabolic signaling; they explore how high-fat diets disrupt this process, potential hormetic benefits, therapeutic mitochondria transplantation for diseases like Leigh syndrome and obesity, and broader immunometabolism crosstalk.About the guest: Jon Brestoff, MD, PhD is an associate professor of pathology and immunology at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, where he directs the Initiative for Immunometabolism.Discussion Points:Mitochondria per cell range from ~100-5000; they move via fusion/fission, vertical inheritance (cell division), or horizontal transfer without division.Transfer mechanisms: free release, extracellular vesicles, or tunneling nanotubes using cytoskeleton transport.In healthy fat tissue, adipocytes routinely donate mitochondria to macrophages for degradation (quality control); high-fat (lard-based, long-chain FA) diets block macrophage uptake, diverting mitochondria to other organs.Diverted mitochondria may induce “mito-hormesis” (mild oxidative stress boosting antioxidants) or signal adipocyte metabolic status inter-organ.Mitochondria transplantation shows promise in animal models for ischemia-reperfusion, obesity, and mitochondrial diseases.Immune cells prefer glycolysis but have low mitochondrial biomass; transplanted mitochondria tilt T-cells toward anti-inflammatory regulatory phenotype.Circulating cell-free mitochondria rival immune cell numbers.Obesity inflammation stems from dying oversized adipocytes releasing lipids/mitochondria, forming crown-like structures with pro-inflammatory macrophages.Leigh syndrome from genetic mutations disrupting the electron transport chain.Transfer may be an evolutionary relic of endosymbiosis; cells may selectively use exogenous mitochondria like a “generator” during metabolic crisis.Reference Paper:Study: The power and potential of mitochondria transferRelated Episode:M&M 260: Energy Resistance Principle in Life, Healing & Disease | Martin Picard & Nirosha MuruganSupport 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.

If you've hit your 30s or 40s and feel like your body's suddenly working against you, you're not alone. Many women notice the scale creeping up, even when they're eating “healthy,” exercising, and doing everything right. In this episode of The Mindset Diet, I break down why this happens and what you can do to take back control.We'll dive into the science of hormonal changes, the psychology of this stage of life, and the stress-cortisol connection that can quietly sabotage progress. You'll also learn the most common myths keeping women stuck and the simple, realistic steps that help you reset your metabolism, reduce stress, and start seeing results again.This isn't about quick fixes—it's about understanding your body, working with it, and finally creating peace with food, movement, and yourself.What You'll LearnThe hormonal shifts that make weight loss harder in your 30s and 40s (and why your metabolism isn't broken)How muscle loss, stress, and sleep changes affect fat storage and cravingsThe real reason chronic dieting and cardio can make weight gain worseThe psychological load of this season of life—and how guilt, perfectionism, and identity shifts play a roleHow cortisol connects your lifestyle stress to stubborn belly fatFour myths keeping women stuck in the “eat less, move more” trapA new mindset for sustainable change and lasting resultsPractical, evidence-based action steps to rebuild your metabolism and confidence

You've been sold fat loss like it's a math equation.“Eat less, move more.” “Track your calories.” “Cut carbs.”But what happens when your body stops responding—and you're doing all the 'right things'? cos truth be told… if you WERE eating 1200 calories… even 1400 for many of you… while doing all the other right things… youd be dropping fat In this episode, we pull the curtain back on midlife metabolism and the real reasons your fat loss has stalled (and it's not just about calories). We break down:- common mistakes & beliefs that keep many women trapped- why it is different in midlife… you feel it, your body feels it, we know it. and jumping on the next set of diet rules, going harder + doing more only keeps you stuck in a deficit, not losing fat despite watching what you eat, being healthy and doing the work so… if you're a woman in your late 30s, 40s or 50s wondering why nothing is working, this is for you we're breaking down:why 1,200 calorie diets keep failing youwhy your scale is stuck even tho you're trackingwhat metabolism really is (and how to build it) and why it is slowing down for you despite what research saysthe hidden cost of approaching cardio, calories + training the wrong waythe truth about fat loss plateaus, menopause, and training intensityhow to fix the all-or-nothing mindset that keeps sabotaging progressyou'll walk away understanding:what your actual fat loss season should look likewhy training to failure > cardio marathonshow to stop burning out and start building a lifestyle that sticks

How can you exercise smarter after 40 to burn fat, build muscle, and keep your metabolism strong? In this episode, I break down how to exercise smarter—not harder—so you can ignite your metabolism after 40. I share the three pillars of metabolic fitness: moving more throughout your day, lifting weights to build muscle, and adding short bursts of high-intensity cardio. You'll learn how to create a powerful workout routine that helps you burn fat, stay strong, and feel amazing—without spending hours in the gym.   What you'll learn: (00:00) Discover why cardio alone won't fix a sluggish metabolism.  (00:56) Learn how everyday movement can add up to 2,000 calories of extra burn each day.
