We throw around the word moderation in the world of nutrition like it's a universally defined word but what does it actually mean? Can you eat a certain food once a day? Once a week? Once a month? In this week's episode, we break down the definition, why it looks different from person to person, and how to integrate it into your daily routine. This week's recipe is Chocolate Chip and Raisin Popcorn. Schedule a visit today at www.bodymetrixhealth.com.

Die deutsche Industrie steckt in einer schweren Krise: Seit 2018 gehen kontinuierlich Arbeitsplätze verloren, inzwischen fallen jeden Montag etwa 10.000 Stellen weg. Viele Unternehmen liebäugeln offen mit dem Abschied aus Deutschland. Sie beklagen einen tödlichen Cocktail aus erdrückender Bürokratie, hohen Energie- und Lohnnebenkosten.Lässt sich der Abwärtstrend stoppen? Darüber diskutieren Claudia Kemfert, Sabine Nallinger und Sepp Müller in dieser Live-Ausgabe des "Klima-Labors": Was bringt ein Industriestrompreis? Ist bezahlbarer grüner Wasserstoff realisierbar oder eine Fantasie? Müssen wir der Industrie zuliebe zum russischen Gas zurückkehren? Muss der Staat bei wichtigen Unternehmen einsteigen? Hilft letztlich doch nur der Kahlschlag beim Klimaschutz?Die Gäste:Claudia Kemfert, Professorin für Energiewirtschaft und Energiepolitik an der Leuphana Universität in Lüneburg und Leiterin der Abteilung Energie, Verkehr, Umwelt am DIW.Sabine Nallinger, Vorständin der Stiftung Klimawirtschaft in Berlin. Die Stiftung ist eine Initiative von Vorstandsvorsitzenden, Geschäftsführern und Familienunternehmern, um sektor- und branchenübergreifend Klimaschutz und Nachhaltigkeit für eine erfolgreiche deutsche Industrie zu fördern.Sepp Müller, stellvertretender Fraktionschef von CDU/CSU im Bundestag sowie Fraktionssprecher für Wirtschaft und Energie.Moderation?

Episode Summary:In this timely revisited episode of the Alcohol Minimalist Podcast, Molly dives deep into the topic of binge drinking—what it is, how it affects your brain, and most importantly, how to avoid it. In the spirit of No Binge November, Molly reflects on the broader implications of binge behavior across all areas of life, not just alcohol. She challenges long-held assumptions, shares science-backed insights, and offers both mindset shifts and practical tools to help you reduce or eliminate binge episodes.Whether you've ever thought, “I'm not a binge drinker,” or you've struggled with black-and-white thinking like, “Once I start, I can't stop,” this episode provides clarity, context, and encouragement to build a more peaceful, mindful relationship with alcohol.What You'll Learn in This Episode:Why binge drinking might look different than you thinkThe scientific definition of binge drinking from the NIHHow higher ABV drinks can quietly turn moderate drinking into binge drinkingThe impact of binge drinking on your brain and behaviorMindset patterns that contribute to binge episodesTools and strategies to help you stay mindful and break the cycleKey Takeaways:Binge drinking isn't just about getting sloppy drunk—it can be more subtle, and many daily drinkers may unknowingly meet the criteria.A typical IPA may pack more alcohol than you realize, impacting your overall intake more than expected.Mindset plays a powerful role—believing "I just can't stop" can become a self-fulfilling prophecy.The goal of being an alcohol minimalist inherently means avoiding binge episodes and embracing calm, controlled drinking habits.Low risk drinking guidelines from the NIAAA:Healthy men under 65:No more than 4 drinks in one day and no more than 14 drinks per week.Healthy women (all ages) and healthy men 65 and older:No more than 3 drinks in one day and no more than 7 drinks per week.One drink is defined as 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine, or 1.5 ounces of 80-proof liquor. So remember that a mixed drink or full glass of wine are probably more than one drink.Abstinence from alcoholAbstinence from alcohol is the best choice for people who take medication(s) that interact with alcohol, have health conditions that could be exacerbated by alcohol (e.g. liver disease), are pregnant or may become pregnant or have had a problem with alcohol or another substance in the past.Benefits of “low-risk” drinkingFollowing these guidelines reduces the risk of health problems such as cancer, liver disease, reduced immunity, ulcers, sleep problems, complications of existing conditions, and more. It also reduces the risk of depression, social problems, and difficulties at school or work. ★ Support this podcast ★
In this week's episode, Kacy and Tyler talk about staying on tracking during the holidays.
High-intensity interval training (HIIT) improves health without weight loss. Research shows that short high-intensity workouts boost cardiovascular health, and reduce body fat HIIT also increased HDL cholesterol levels, lowered blood pressure, and improved peak oxygen consumption (VO2peak) in overweight teens Prediabetics also benefit from HIIT. Analysis shows it outperformed continuous aerobic training by improving insulin sensitivity, glucose processing, and creating more energy-producing mitochondria Moderation is key for safety. An expert recommends limiting high-intensity exercise to 75 minutes weekly and strength training to 40 to 60 minutes weekly to avoid diminishing returns and health risks Effective sessions include a three-minute warmup, six minutes of high-intensity cardio, and combining cardio with strength training twice weekly
In this episode of the Food Freedom Podcast, Coach Mary pulls back the curtain on one of the most dangerous lies in diet culture, the idea that you can “moderate” drug foods when you're addicted to them. If you've been telling yourself you can just have a little sugar, a little junk food, or a little processed snack and still stay in control this episode is going to be a reality check.We're talking about the real definition of addiction, why moderation always fails for food addicts, how ultra processed foods hijack the brain, and why abstinence is the proven path to true food freedom. If you've ever wondered why you can't stop once you start, or why one bite leads to a binge, you'll understand the science AND the psychology after this episode.Food addiction is real. Moderation isn't recovery it's relapse disguised as “balance.”If you want real food freedom, you have to get honest about what your brain can and cannot handle.If you're tired of the binge-restrict cycle, and ready for food sobriety that actually lasts this episode is for you.Grab your copy of my FREE 9 page Beginner's Guide to Food Sobriety https://www.foodfreedomwithmary.com/foodsobrietyguideFood Sobriety Mini Course -https://www.foodfreedomwithmary.com/foodsobrietymcFacebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/4915319108493196/?ref=share_group_linkDo you need private coaching and intensive daily contact with a coach?

Gut durch die Zeit. Der Podcast rund um Mediation, Konflikt-Coaching und Organisationsberatung.
In dieser Episode beleuchte ich das Thema Mediation im Bauwesen, das durch seine Komplexität und häufigen Konflikte besondere Anforderungen an Mediationskompetenzen stellt. Im Gespräch mit Claudia Horstmann, einer erfahrenen Architektin und Transaktionsanalytikerin, gewinne ich Einblicke in die Kommunikationsdynamiken und Herausforderungen auf Baustellen. Wir diskutieren die Bedeutung der Bauhütte als zentralen Ort für alle Beteiligten, die Notwendigkeit, klare Grenzen zu setzen und gleichzeitig respektvolle Beziehungen zu fördern. Claudia teilt ihre Erfahrungen als Frau in einer männerdominierten Branche und erläutert die Relevanz der Transaktionsanalyse für das Verständnis von Konflikten in Besprechungen. Wir beleuchten außerdem die Rolle von Moderation in Bauprojekten und reflektieren, wie eine mediative Herangehensweise die Zusammenarbeit und Kommunikationskultur im Bauwesen verbessern könnte.
Welcome back to a revisited edition of Think Thursday from the Alcohol Minimalist Podcast. These Thursday episodes are all about understanding your brain, challenging outdated thought patterns, and using neuroscience to support real, lasting change in your relationship with alcohol.This week, we're bringing back one of the foundational Think Thursday conversations: The Privilege of Self-Improvement. Whether you're hearing it for the first time or coming back for a refresh, this episode is especially relevant as we approach the end of the year and the start of the holiday season.What You'll Learn in This Episode:Why self-improvement isn't a burden, but a privilege uniquely available to humansThe role of your prefrontal cortex in planning, reflection, and long-term behavior changeHow to shift out of the “start over in January” mindset and build momentum nowWhy changing your drinking habits is an act of personal development, not punishmentThe neuroscience behind why your brain can work for you—or against you—and how to make it your allyWhy This Episode Still Matters:Too often, people think change has to wait until a new year, a clean slate, or a big external motivator. But this episode reminds you that the ability to grow, reflect, and choose new actions is one of the most powerful parts of being human. And that process can start today—right where you are.Key Quote:"The very fact that you're capable of imagining a better version of yourself and taking steps to create it is something to celebrate—not dread."Resources:Read the book: Breaking the Bottle Legacy by Molly WattsFree guide: Alcohol Truths — science-based info to guide your choicesLearn about our core programs: Making Peace with Alcohol, Drink-Less Success, and Proof PositiveNew episodes release every Monday and Thursday.

Kopfsalat - Der "Freunde fürs Leben" Podcast über Depressionen
In dieser Folge des Podcasts „Kopfsalat“ von Freunde fürs Leben e.V. spricht Moderator Sven Haeusler mit der Journalistin und HateAid-Mitgründerin Anna-Lena von Hodenberg über digitale Gewalt. Sie erklärt, dass unsere Psyche nicht zwischen analoger und digitaler Gewalterfahrung unterscheidet und Hass im Netz real belastet, körperlich wie mental. Besonders Jugendliche seien gefährdet, weil ihnen oft Distanz und Abgrenzung fehlten. Kurzbeschreibung: Die Organisation HateAid unterstützt Betroffene mit Beratung, Beweissicherung und Prozesskostenhilfe und setzt sich dafür ein, dass Plattformen nicht länger Hass und Desinformation verstärken. Anna-Lena von Hodenberg betont, wie wichtig es ist, Vorfälle ernst zu nehmen, nicht allein zu bleiben und illegale Inhalte zu melden. Auch Außenstehende können helfen, indem sie Betroffenen öffentlich den Rücken stärken. Die sechste Staffel wird gefördert durch die Deutsche DepressionsLiga e.V. und die DAK Gesundheit.

Zohran Mamdani has won the 2025 New York City mayoral race, with a higher turnout of voters than New York has seen in decades. This despite the fact that New York's senators — Chuck Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand — did not back Mamdani, and House Democrat Leader Hakeem Jeffries waited until the day before early voting began to endorse the Democratic nominee.Mamdani's divided party support reflects an intensifying argument over whether Democratic candidates must move closer to the political center - or further away - in order to win. Brooke speaks with Elliott Morris, a journalist, statistician, and author of the data-driven news website Strength in Numbers, about what the numbers say around moderation and why it might not be the silver bullet Democratic strategists seemed to crave.Further reading:Moderation is not a silver bullet, by Elliott MorrisThe Strategist's Fallacy in American politics, by Elliott Morris On the Media is supported by listeners like you.

In dieser besonderen Folge von Zoomer meets Boomer treffen nicht nur zwei Generationen aufeinander, sondern auch zwei Reverse-Mentoring-Duos. Oskar & Michael auf der einen Seite: Sohn und Vater. Miriam & Michaela auf der anderen: Facilitatorin / Designerin und erfahrene Gründerin. Was uns verbindet: Wir alle arbeiten in generationenübergreifenden Tandems, in denen Neugier älter wird und Erfahrung jünger bleibt. Miriam und Michaela leben das seit Jahren, als Team zwischen London und Weinsberg, zwischen digitaler Produktentwicklung und systemischer Moderation. Gemeinsam bringen sie das zusammen, was in vielen Organisationen noch getrennt gedacht wird: Technologie und Haltung, Tempo und Tiefe, Struktur und Sinn. Im Gespräch geht es daher nicht nur um Meetings, sondern um weit mehr. Wir sprechen über Führung, psychologische Sicherheit, Räume für echte Begegnung und die Kunst, Zusammenarbeit zu gestalten, die inspiriert statt erschöpft. Unsere Fragen in der Folge: Wie sieht Mentoring in der Praxis aus, jenseits von Buzzwords? // Was können erfahrene Führungskräfte von jungen Facilitator:*innen lernen und was umgekehrt? // Welche Prinzipien aus Design Thinking und systemischer Moderation helfen, komplexe Teams zu führen? // Und warum ist gute Moderation eigentlich eine Form von Leadership? Unsere Fünf Takeaways aus der Folge: 1. Generationen als Ressource. Wenn Erfahrung und Neugier zusammenkommen, entsteht Innovation und nicht nur Reibung. 2. Führung ist Facilitation. Wer Menschen führt, muss Räume halten, in denen andere sich entfalten können. 3. Tiefe schlägt Tempo. In einer Welt voller Tools und Meetings braucht es Momente des Innehaltens, Zuhörens und Sortierens. 4. Design trifft System. Design Thinking öffnet, systemische Moderation verankert, beides zusammen schafft nachhaltige Veränderung. 5. Reverse Mentoring funktioniert, wenn Vertrauen da ist. Beide Seiten müssen bereit sein, ihre Komfortzone zu verlassen und wirklich voneinander zu lernen. Am Ende bleibt uns ein schönes gemeinsames Bild: Zwei Generationenpaare: eins Weiblich, eins männlich, die sich gegenseitig spiegeln und gemeinsam zeigen, was New Work im besten Sinne bedeuten kann: Neugierig bleiben. Verantwortung teilen. Und die Zusammenarbeit zwischen den Generationen bewusst zu gestalten.
In this episode, Josh and Alessandra pull back the curtain on how they're prepping for their upcoming family trip to Disney World—through the lens of the L5 Method. Instead of obsessing over macros or trying to "stay on track," they share how they're prioritizing training, nutrition, mindset, movement, and habits in a way that supports energy, recovery, and actually having fun. They walk through their rough itinerary, what workouts (if any) they'll be doing, how they think about food while traveling, and why they believe the point of fitness is to enhance life, not restrict it. Whether you're heading on vacation soon or just need a mindset shift around travel and health, this one's packed with takeaways you can use.

„Als ich mich selbst zu lieben begann, habe ich mich von allem befreit, was nicht gesund für mich war – von Speisen, Menschen, Dingen, Situationen und von allem, das mich immer wieder hinunterzog, weg von mir selbst. Anfangs nannte ich das gesunde Egoismus, aber heute weiß ich, das ist Selbstliebe.“ – Charlie Chaplin Willkommen bei „Zuckerfrei beginnt im Kopf“! In dieser Folge tauchen wir ein in das Geheimnis unseres eigenen Herzmagneten: Wie beeinflusst unsere Haltung zu uns selbst – besonders im Hinblick auf ein zuckerfreies Leben und bewusste Selbstfürsorge – die Energie, die wir ausstrahlen und das, was wir in unser Leben ziehen? Zuckerfreie Ernährung und die liebevolle Kunst, wie wir mit uns umgehen, haben eine enorme Wirkung auf unsere Herzmagneten: Sie bestimmen, wie klar, kraftvoll und unabhängig wir durchs Leben gehen und wie sich unser Umfeld, unsere Begegnungen und Chancen verändern. Statt einfach alles im Außen aufzunehmen, wählen wir bewusst – und erleben dadurch eine neue Form von Klarheit und Anziehungskraft. In dieser Folge erfährst du:
In this episode of the Alcohol Minimalist podcast, Molly explores how your environment—your physical space, routines, and sensory cues—quietly shapes your drinking habits. From the shape of your glass to the spot you sit in at night, environmental triggers can powerfully reinforce auto-pilot behavior.But here's the key: these external cues are not the full story. They don't create your drinking habit—they support it. Real change comes from understanding why you're drinking in the first place and learning to respond to that emotional need in a new way.If you're ready to interrupt automatic drinking patterns and create more space for intention, this episode offers practical experiments and key mindset shifts to help you get started.What You'll Learn:The science behind “cue-induced behavior” and why your brain responds to drinking cues before you even decide to drinkHow physical environments and sensory cues reinforce habit loopsWhy changing your environment won't change your desire—but can support itFive practical, science-based experiments to reduce drinking triggers and increase awarenessHow to use those experiments as a bridge to deeper internal workThe emotional questions to ask when you interrupt a habit loopWhy lasting change requires more than just tactics—it requires managing your thoughtsExperiments to Try This Week:Swap Your Glass – Use a different shape or style to disrupt routineChange Your Location – Don't drink in your usual “drinking spot”Clear Visual Cues – Remove bottles, tools, and reminders from sightSwap the Soundtrack – Introduce new music or lighting to shift moodCreate a Wind-Down Zone – Design a new space for tea, reading, or journaling and anchor it to relaxation instead of alcoholLow risk drinking guidelines from the NIAAA:Healthy men under 65:No more than 4 drinks in one day and no more than 14 drinks per week.Healthy women (all ages) and healthy men 65 and older:No more than 3 drinks in one day and no more than 7 drinks per week.One drink is defined as 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine, or 1.5 ounces of 80-proof liquor.

This episode features the core team behind Sora, OpenAI's groundbreaking video generation platform that became the #1 app in the App Store. Bill Peebles (research lead), Rohan Sahai (product lead), and Thomas Dimson (engineering/product lead with Instagram background) discuss the unexpected viral success of Sora's launch, the product journey that led to the breakthrough "cameo" feature (putting yourself in AI-generated videos), and their philosophy of building a creator-first social network that prioritizes human creativity over passive consumption. They reveal the technical milestones in video generation, their small team size (under 50 people total at launch), navigation of content moderation challenges, early monetization strategy, and their ambitious vision for video models as world simulators that could eventually contribute to scientific breakthroughs by 2028. The conversation captures both the tactical product decisions and strategic philosophy that made Sora a cultural phenomenon.

Im Herbst 2021 wird die FPÖ in Graz von einem Finanzskandal erschüttert. 1,8 Millionen Euro Steuergeld sind verschwunden. Alexis Pascuttini steigt damals überraschend zum Klubschef in Graz auf und will herauszufinden, was mit den Millionen passiert ist. Doch seine Nachforschungen stoßen auf Widerstand – in der Partei und in seiner Verbindung. In Folge fünf zeichnen wir nach, wie es für Walter Rosenkranz indes karrieretechnisch steil bergauf geht: 2022 tritt er als Bundespräsidentschaftskandidat an. Gewählt wird er erwartungsgemäß nicht. Aber zwei Jahre später kommt für ihn die ganz große Chance: Die FPÖ wird stärkste Kraft in Österreich und Rosenkranz darf den Posten des ersten Nationalratspräsidenten besetzen.

Wenn schon live, dann richtig! Beim Podstock trafen sich Esel und Teddy mit Stefan und Johannes vom Podcast Luft nach oben zu einem großen Crossover – oder besser gesagt: zum ultimativen Partnertausch-Duell. Normalerweise spielen wir ja Esel & Teddy gegen Luft nach oben. Aber diesmal? Alle gegen alle – in jeder nur denkbaren Kombination! Ob Esel & Stefan, Teddy & Johannes oder das klassische Dream-Team Esel & Teddy – keine Paarung blieb ungetestet, um endlich herauszufinden, wer wirklich das beste Podcast-Gespann ist. Gespielt wurde natürlich nicht nur um Ruhm und Ehre: ein Schnellraten, das eher langsam war, ein Songspiel, bei dem Textsicherheit Glückssache blieb, und natürlich das legendäre Assoziationschaos, bei dem kein Gedanke da endete, wo er angefangen hatte. Das Publikum tobte, der Schweiß floss (vor allem bei Esel), und am Ende stand fest: Der wahre Gewinner war aber: der größte Blödsinn. Wie für die großartige Powerpoint-Karaoke-Vorlage auch hier wieder ein herzliches Dankeschön an Moni und Anika für die Vorbereitung und Moderation! Ihr seid einfach die Besten!
Your inner critic: that voice in your head that says, “You're not good enough,” or “You'll never stick with this.” We all have one. But what if there was a way to take back your power—starting with something as simple (and science-backed) as giving it a name?In this episode of Think Thursday from the Alcohol Minimalist, Molly dives into the neuroscience and psychology behind naming your inner critic and how this deceptively small move can have a big impact on your identity, your habits, and your peace of mind.In this episode:Why self-critical thoughts become default neural pathwaysWhat psychology research tells us about the “self-critic sequence”How naming your inner critic creates psychological distance and disrupts habit loopsThe brain science behind identity-based changeWhat to do when your critic shows up (including journaling prompts and self-compassion techniques)You'll also hear how Molly uses the phrase “Old Molly” to talk back to her own inner critic—and how this practice can create space for a new self to emerge.This is your brain's inner dialogue—rewired for growth.Resources Mentioned:Work of Dr. Kristin Neff on self-compassionIdentity-based habits from James ClearPsychology research on emotion naming and self-criticismDialogical Self TheoryYour Think Thursday Challenge:Choose a name for your inner criticSpeak to it with awareness and intentionJournal about the shifts you noticeYou're not trying to silence the voice—you're learning how to lead it.

Following Monday's controversial episode about why "everything in moderation" is terrible advice, this Q&A addresses your biggest fears and questions about moving beyond the moderation mindset. From concerns about eating "everything in sight" to handling unsupportive family members, we dive into the practical psychology of food freedom and internal awareness.Important Points Covered:The Permission Paradox: Why giving yourself full permission to eat anything actually reduces food obsession over time, and what to expect during the initial "testing the waters" phase.Reconnecting with Internal Cues: How to rebuild trust in your body's hunger and satisfaction signals using the 1-10 scale method, and why your body already knows how much it needs.Handling Trigger Foods: The difference between temporary avoidance and permanent restriction, plus how to identify whether the food itself or the emotions around it are the real trigger.Dealing with Unsupportive People: Scripts for handling family and friends who don't understand why "moderation" advice doesn't work for everyone, and why you don't need their permission to heal your relationship with food.Building Self-Awareness: Practical steps for developing the ability to distinguish between physical hunger and emotional hunger, even if you feel completely disconnected from your body's signals right now.The Consciousness vs. Compulsion Goal: Understanding that food freedom means being able to choose any food from a place of awareness, not automatic reaction or restriction-driven rebellion.Ready to move beyond generic "moderation" advice and into an approach that actually works with your psychology? Start with one simple practice this week: before eating, ask yourself "Am I physically hungry or am I feeling something else?" Don't judge your answer - just start building awareness. Your relationship with food is about to transform from the inside out.Send your questions for future Q&A episodes - the more specific, the better. Your question might be exactly what someone else needs to hear.Episode Length: 11 minutesBest For: People ready to move beyond traditional diet advice and develop internal food awareness

Turner explains, “Bill Gates is trying to flee the blaze he helped ignite. There's no new science, no new revelation—only a billionaire trying to rewrite his role in the destruction he financed. Gates knows his green crusade has crushed working families with unaffordable energy costs, but now that the political winds have shifted, he wants to act like the voice of reason. The American people won't forget who helped light the fire in the first place.” 6:30pm- During a Senate hearing on political violence, conservative commentator Michael Knowles called out Sen. Cory Booker for his continued support of Jay Jones—a Virginia Attorney General candidate who once called for the death of his political opponent. 6:40pm- MSNBC's Nicolle Wallace claimed that no Democrats have compared Donald Trump to Hitler.

Send us a textI unpack what “ultra-processed” really means, why these foods are so easy to overeat, what the best evidence shows (including metabolic-ward studies), and how I personally navigate them without fear or perfectionism. Key topics & evidence (in plain English):What counts as “ultra-processed”? I walk through the NOVA system—useful, not perfect—and where borderline items (frozen meals, boxed mixes) fit. See an overview of NOVA classifications here. How we got here: post-WWII abundance of refined flour, cheap sugars, oils, and a cultural push for convenience—now ~60% of the U.S. diet comes from UPFs (study). Additives: stabilizers, emulsifiers, preservatives, and colors are generally recognized as safe (GRAS). I explain why, on their own, they're probably not the main health issue. The bigger problem: UPFs are energy-dense, engineered for bliss (fat/sugar/salt + perfect texture), and easy to eat quickly—driving higher calorie intake. • Metabolic-ward crossover trial: +~508 kcal/day when participants ate UPFs vs minimally processed (Cell 2019). • Overweight adults in a crossover design: +~814 kcal/day on the UPF week (PubMed). • Another recent crossover RCT reports ~300 kcal/day higher on UPFs (Nature Medicine 2025). What I recommend (and what I do):Prioritize whole foods most of the time; shop the perimeter; cook when you can. Canned tomatoes/beans and frozen fruits/peas are fine helpers. If weight, diabetes, or blood pressure are concerns, be extra cautious with UPFs—they're designed to be irresistible and calorie-dense. Moderation wins: I enjoy favorites (yes, even boxed mac 'n' cheese and crunchy peanut butter) without letting them dominate my plate. Takeaways you can use today:Build meals around minimally processed proteins, veggies, fruits, and beans; let convenience items support—not star—in your diet. Watch “calorie-dense + easy to overeat” combos (chips, sweets, fast food). If you have them, portion once, then put the package away. If symptoms or inflammation are puzzling you, try a short UPF-light experiment (2–4 weeks) and see how you feel. If this episode helped, please follow and leave a quick review—and share it with a friend who's curious about UPFs. For my newsletter and resources, visit drbobbylivelongandwell.com.

Send us a textIn this episode, we talk about the new trend of fiber maxing, exploring its definition, implications, and the balance needed in dietary fiber intake. We emphasize the importance of hydration and talk about the potential side effects of excessive fiber. It is always good to have a mindful and informed approach to dietary changes. Takeaways-- Fiber maxing is a recent trend focused on increasing fiber intake.- There is no clear definition of fiber maxing; it can vary from meeting to exceeding fiber needs.- Extreme dietary trends can lead to negative health effects if not approached mindfully.- Hydration is crucial when increasing fiber intake to avoid digestive issues.- Going low and slow with fiber is recommended for better tolerance.- Fiber intake is linked to reducing the risk of colon cancer.- A balanced approach to fiber intake is essential for gut health.- Listening to your body is important when making dietary changes.- Dietary trends often swing between extremes, highlighting the need for moderation.Chapters:00:00- Introduction to Fiber Maxing02:27- Understanding the Concept of Fiber Maxing05:12- The Balance of Fiber Intake07:50- Recommendations for Fiber Maxing10:17- The Role of Media in Nutrition Trends13:14- The Importance of Moderation and AwarenessFollow us on instagram @crohns_and_colitis_dietitiansFollow us on youtube @thecrohnscolitisdietitiansWe love helping provide quality content on IBD nutrition and making it more accessible to all through our podcast, instagram and youtube channel.

In this episode of Think Thursday, Molly explores the powerful difference between joy and pleasure, and why understanding this distinction matters for anyone pursuing lasting behavior change — including changing your relationship with alcohol.We often use “joy” and “pleasure” interchangeably, but from a neuroscience lens, they activate different brain pathways and lead to profoundly different emotional outcomes. Pleasure is short-lived, dopamine-driven, and external. Joy, on the other hand, is sustainable, meaning-based, and internally constructed.Molly breaks down the brain science behind each, explaining:Why our reward system is wired for instant gratificationHow dopamine can lead to tolerance (and increased consumption)Why joy isn't just felt — it's built and interpreted by the brain's meaning-making systemShe offers five brain-friendly strategies to create more joy in your life — and how these tools can directly support your alcohol minimalist journey.What You'll LearnThe key neurochemical differences between pleasure and joyWhy pleasure tends to fade quickly (and leave you wanting more)The role of dopamine, serotonin, oxytocin, and endorphins in how we feelWhy joy can be cultivated, even in challenging momentsPractical, science-backed ways to bring more joy into your daily lifeJoy-Building Practices:Savoring – Pause and stretch out positive experiencesGratitude – Practice genuine (not performative) thankfulnessConnection – Strengthen relational bonds in simple waysAligned Action – Do one small thing that reflects your valuesNovelty – Try something new to spark curiosity and attentionMentioned in the Episode:The SPARK acronym from Monday's main episodeInsights from the book Aesthetics of Joy by Ingrid Fetell LeeWhy This MattersWhen you're changing your drinking habits, it's not about removing pleasure — it's about building something more lasting and meaningful. Understanding how to create joy gives you a powerful tool to replace the quick fix of alcohol with something far more fulfilling.Ready to practice joy on purpose?

They explore why a one-size-fits-all approach to longevity falls short and how personalized data, from biomarkers to genetics, can spot early signs of disease before symptoms appear.Florence explains her “Nof1” method, which uses deep testing, wearables, and personal history to craft precise health plans. She highlights how sleep, more than exercise or diet, shapes long-term health but remains hard for most people to optimize. Using real-world examples, Florence shows why tracking markers like insulin and hormones matter, and why most people need support to turn health knowledge into action.The conversation covers the limits of standard medical care, the value of knowing your family history, and how even the best routines must adapt over time. Florence urges listeners to get curious about their own data and take steps—however small—toward better health.Guest-at-a-Glance

We’re celebrating something special on today, Amber’s one-year alcohol-free anniversary!
Join Dr. Marianne Pinkston and guest Amber Abila, an adult binge eating coach and expert, for a deep dive into Binge Eating Disorder (BED). Dr. Pinkston shares her personal journey of gaining over 300 pounds, losing weight, and realizing she was struggling with an eating disorder later in life. Amber, who also overcame bulimia and binge eating, discusses how this disorder—only recognized in the DSM-5 in 2013—is often misunderstood as a "willpower problem." They explore the origins of the binge-restrict cycle, the power of mindset and habit change, and practical strategies to dismantle the shame, fear, and addictive patterns surrounding food. Learn the six pillars of Amber's coaching program, including how to sit with urges, develop an abundance mindset, and use celebration to rewire your brain for lasting change. 00:00 Introduction: The Better Life with Dr. Marianne Pinkston 00:32 Introducing Guest Amber Abila: Binge Eating Disorder (BED) and its History 01:00 Dr. Pinkston's Personal Story: Realizing an Eating Disorder at 47 01:27 Amber's Story: The Dieting Origin of Binge Eating and Bulimia 02:54 The Shift from Therapy to Habit Research: Understanding Binge as a Habit 04:10 The First Binge and Purge: The Shame and Desperation of the Cycle 05:43 The "Aha!"

In this Think Thursday episode, Molly explores why sometimes not knowing can actually make you calmer, more focused, and more creative. Continuing the theme of counterintuitive brain science, she builds on previous Think Thursday episodes like The Paradox of Freedom, Novelty for Habit Change, and last week's Defensive Pessimism to show how Selective Ignorance helps protect the brain's limited capacity for attention, energy, and emotion.What You'll LearnWhy so many principles of neuroscience and psychology feel counterintuitive at firstHow your brain filters 11 million bits of information every second through the reticular activating systemWhy constant news, emails, and notifications drain your mental energyHow dopamine drives curiosity and why too much novelty burns it outWhat studies show about the benefits of “information fasting” and reduced mental inputPractical ways to practice Selective Ignorance to improve focus and reduce stressKey Quotes“The people who make meaningful change aren't the ones who know the most—they're the ones who filter the best.” — James Clear, Atomic Habits“Sometimes not knowing helps you know yourself better.” — Molly WattsPractical TakeawaysCurate your inputs. Follow fewer, higher-quality sources.Schedule mental quiet. Set “ignorance hours” for digital silence.Replace input with reflection. Journal, walk, or sit in quiet thought.Remember the enough threshold. Progress comes from applying what you already know, not learning more.Studies and Sources MentionedClear, J. (2018).
