In this episode, we look closely at the critical topics surrounding diabetes and metabolic syndrome with Dr. Avi Charlton, a seasoned GP with over 20 years of experience managing these conditions. Dr. Charlton takes us on a comprehensive journey through the nuances of diabetes, distinguishing between its various forms, and unravel the mysteries of metabolic syndrome—a condition closely tied to diabetes that often goes unnoticed. Furthermore, Dr. Charlton sheds light on the serious complications of both conditions, from hidden cellular damage to life-altering issues like amputations and vision loss. She offers a fascinating exploration of how high insulin levels can affect mental health, delving into the potential link between diabetes and neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's, often dubbed "Type 3 diabetes." From diet to medication, Dr. Charlton discusses actionable ways to manage and potentially reverse some of the damage caused by these conditions. This episode also covers cutting-edge topics such as the new class of diabetes drugs like Ozempic, weighing their benefits and drawbacks. Additionally, we introduce the potential of breathwork as a complementary approach to managing stress and improving overall health for those with diabetes and metabolic syndrome. Whether you're a healthcare professional looking to expand your knowledge, someone living with diabetes or metabolic syndrome, or simply interested in optimising your health, this episode provides valuable, practical insights you can use in everyday life. From understanding the role of mitochondria in cellular health to actionable dietary advice, you'll gain a comprehensive understanding of these conditions and practical strategies for management and prevention. Key Topics: Diabetes and metabolic syndrome: Definitions and distinctions Complications and health issues associated with diabetes and metabolic syndrome The impact of diabetes on mental health and cognitive function: the link between Alzheimer's disease and diabetes The recommended diet for diabetes management Discussion on healthy fats: Monounsaturated, omega-3, omega-6, and saturated fats Patient results from dietary interventions New class of diabetes drugs: Ozempic and its variations Introduction to breathwork and its potential benefits Actionable Takeaways: Understanding a medical professional's personal journey can provide valuable insights into their approach to patient care. Making dietary changes can potentially reverse some of the complications of diabetes. A balanced, personalised diet is crucial for managing diabetes and metabolic syndrome.

Something so common in the nutrition and health world is this idea of the magic bullet nutrient. Fats in food used to be that magic bullet for me. I used to think that if people could just get higher amounts of monounsaturated and omega-3 fatty acids in their diet, things would be so much better. They'd be able to enjoy food, feel satiated more often, and not overeat. Boy was this thinking flawed! In this episode, I break down the skinny on fats in our diets. What they are, where they come from, and what to pay attention to. Listen in as I go through the four main groups of fats - Saturated, Monounsaturated, Polyunsaturated, and Trans Fatty Acids. And then in my next episode I'll discuss Omega-3s and some alternatives to Omega-3s that can help us enjoy a longer, more nourished life. I'm excited for this one. This episode is packed with great information about the types of fats that are helpful, and what to look out for in the ones that aren't. Come and join me in this two part series on the skinny on fats.

This week I discuss the 3 main types of fats and what role they should play in your diet. When it comes to cooking with fats, understanding the different types is key. There are three main types of fats to cook with: saturated, monounsaturated, and polyunsaturated. Saturated fats are solid at room temperature and are found in animal products such as ghee, tallow, and lard. They are commonly used for high-heat cooking.Monounsaturated fats are liquid at room temperature. Two popular options are olive oil and avocado oil. They are best used for sautéing and baking.Polyunsaturated fats are also liquid at room temperature and are found in vegetable oils such as corn, soybean, and sunflower oil. These are suitable for low-heat cooking and baking but should be avoided at all costs!It is important to pay attention to the type of fat you are using in your cooking to ensure the healthiest outcome.If you love the Get Lean Eat Clean Podcast, we'd love for you to subscribe, rate, and give a review on Apple Podcasts and Spotify!

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Nina Teicholz. She is an investigative science journalist and leader in nutrition reporting who is challenging the conventional wisdom on dietary fat–particularly, whether saturated fat causes heart disease and whether fat really makes you fat. The New York Times bestselling author of The Big Fat Surprise. Teicholz also serves as Executive Director of The Nutrition Coalition, an independent non-profit group that promotes evidence-based nutrition policy. She is one of a new generation of researchers arguing that diets lower in carbohydrates are a scientifically sound approach for reversing nutrition-related diseases. For more than half a century, we've been told to eat a diet high in grains, low in fat, saturated fat (and cholesterol), but the last two decades of research have led a growing number of scientists to conclude that this diet, despite being rigorously tested, could never be shown to prevent any kind of disease. Teicholz's work also explains why this diet has remained official policy for so long: the roles played by crusading scientists, the food industry, and more. In this episode, Nina opens the show by explaining her obsession with studying fat. Nina realized that people were afraid to talk about fat because the food industry was pushing their agenda. Nina explains what was wrong in the 1950s, leading most people to believe that saturated fats and dietary cholesterol cause heart disease. Later, we talk about why the American Heart Association gets so many health facts wrong. Tune in as Nina busts common myths around red meat and who is really pushing vegan and vegetarian diets.

During her research, Nina came across studies pointing out the flaws in a low-fat diet. However, so many scientists at universities were terrified to talk to Nina about fat. Why? Because people in the food industry were paid to give scientists a hard time. Nina realized there was something really wrong going on here that had such enormous implications. Nutrition science from the very beginning has been heavily influenced by the food industry. For instance, the vegetable oil industry wanted to go after people for attacking vegetable oils in any way. You see the same tactics happening today on social media. [08:55] Polyunsaturated Fats vs. Saturated Fats vs. Monounsaturated Fats Fatty acids are long carbon chains. Poly means many. Polyunsaturated fats have many double bonds. Each time there's a double bond in the chain, it kinks the chain. Some examples of polyunsaturated fats: Corn oil Safflower oil Sunflower oil Canola oil Monounsaturated fats are the same carbon chain but with one double bond. If you want to use oil, it's better to use olive oil because it only has one double bond. Saturated means that the carbon chain is statured with hydrogen, and there is no double bond. It is a flat chain, and it makes a solid like butter. Saturated fats are actually the best for cooking, and they're the healthiest for eating because they do not oxidize or cause inflammation. [17:55] What Went Wrong In The 1950s With Ancel Keys and President Eisenhower The idea that fat, cholesterol, and animal foods are bad for health began in the 1950s. The US was really in a panic over the rising tide of heart disease, which had been virtually nonexistent in the early 1900s. In the 1930s, heart disease became the number one killer. A panic started when President Eisenhower himself had a heart attack in 1955. Eisenhower's doctor was convinced by Ancel Keys that saturated fats and dietary cholesterol cause heart disease. Plus, Ancel Keys got his ideas adopted by the American Heart Association. Ancel came out with a statement saying to avoid saturated fat and cholesterol in order to prevent heart attacks. We are still dealing with this in 2021. [23:00] Why Are Seed Oils Approved by the American Heart Association? How is it possible for the American Heart Association to continue to ignore so much scientific literature? More than 20 papers published in the field have concluded that we got it wrong on saturated fats. There is no data to justify the authorities' limits on these seed oils. It's challenging to trust the government with our health when they recommend seed oils. [31:00] Sorry Vegans, Meat-Eating Is Healthy For Humans Nina did not know how controversial red meat was until she put a picture of it on the cover of her book. Sadly, many people think that if you eat meat, you're a bad person, you don't believe in climate change, and you're not doing your part to protect the climate. There's this moral revulsion that has been created against meat. Influencers in the spheres of science and public health have vilified one of the healthiest foods on the planet. Meat was developed by humans in order to have a convenient and cheap source of protein. [33:15] Myth: Meat Causes Diabetes Diabetes is caused by elevated blood sugars. Sugar causes elevated blood sugars, so do carbs. Where's the sugar in meat? It's just nonexistent. It's impossible that meat would cause diabetes. Red meat consumption has gone down around 28% since 1970. Whereas, diabetes has skyrocketed out of control. [34:15] Myth: Red Meat Causes Colorectal Cancer The WHO decided that red meat and processed meats cause colorectal cancer. This decision was based on these kinds of weak science called epidemiological or observational studies that show associations instead of causation. The data they used was self-reported dietary data, and we all lie about what we eat. There needs to be a more significant discussion about the bias against red meat. [38:30] Why People Are Pushing Vegetarian and Vegan Diets The animal rights movement does not want people eating animals. The Seventh Day Adventist Church has a religious belief that people should eat a vegan diet.Plus, the food industry has an enormous investment in plant-based foods. Also, many companies want to hop on the climate change bandwagon. Many vegan burgers have vegetable oils that are not healthy. [41:30] Myth: There's a Correlation Between Red Meat Consumption and Heart Disease The original reason that red meat was thought to cause heart disease was based the fact that it contains saturated fat and cholesterol. However, research shows that saturated fat and cholesterol do not cause heart disease. Therefore, foods containing saturated fat and cholesterol don't cause heart disease. The correlation between saturated fat, cholesterol, and heart disease has been more rigorously and extensively studied than almost any other scientific question in the history of nutrition science. [47:15] Which To Cut First: Smoking Cigarettes, Processed Sugars, or Vegetable Oils People smoked historically for hundreds of years tobacco, but they did not get cancer or heart disease until the introduction of sugar. Nina says that smoking is probably safer than processed sugars or vegetable oils. Between sugar and vegetable oils, Nina says that vegetable oils are safer. People who go low-carb will see massive improvements even if they continue to use vegetable oils. AND MUCH MORE!

Fat is the third and most calorie-rich macronutrient our bodies require daily. Dietary fat provides the body with essential fatty acids (EFAs), structural compounds the body cannot make itself and can only obtain through food. Monounsaturated fats are found in plant foods, such as nuts, avocados, and vegetable oils. Eating moderate amounts of Omega 3-6-9, mono- and poly-unsaturated (and even some saturated!!) fats can benefit your health, but you MUST avoid trans and hydrogenated fats. Unlike protein and carbs, fats are not broken down by the body and rebuilt for use. What we eat, the body will use or store directly, so choose wisely. Expert trainer Ramin Rasavar shares tips, clever analogies, and easy steps anyone can incorporate. He has Accepted the Mission of preparing Deb and Corrine for their upcoming “They Did It Tour – Two Women Walking & Rocking” their way across Ireland in the summer of 2024!

Today, I am grateful to have here with me, author of New York Times bestseller The Bulletproof Diet, a Silicon Valley investor and technology entrepreneur who spent two decades and more than one million dollars to hack his own biology, Dave Asprey. Dave lost 100 pounds without counting calories or excessive exercise, used techniques to upgrade his brain and lift his IQ by 20 points, and lowered his biological age while learning to sleep more efficiently in less time. Learning to do these seemingly impossible things transformed him into a better entrepreneur, a better husband, and a better father. Through his work Dave provides information, techniques and keys to taking control of and improving your biochemistry, your body and your mind so they work in unison, helping you execute at levels far beyond what you'd expect, without burning out, getting sick, or allowing stress to control your decisions. In this episode, Dave Asprey explains why simply not eating carbs isn't enough to lose weight and keep the weight off. Dave reveals why we need to eat the rights fats. Whenever you eat something, there are three things you need to think about: will this food be used as a building block, will this food be used as a fuel, and what toxins does the food have? Plus, Dave describes why we need to stop eating overcooked foods and the reasons we should be more concerned with the quality of our ingredients in the foods we eat. Register for my upcoming FREE Keto Webinar: https://kka.mykajabi.com/keto-diet-masterclass-1 90 Day Detox Program: http://www.ketokampdetox.com Order Keto Flex: http://www.ketoflexbook.com [00:45] Why Not Eating Carbs Isn't Enough The keto diet makes you lose a bunch of weight, and it also causes inflammation. The keto cookies are made with gluten – they are causing inflammation! If you are not in ketosis some of the time, you will not live to 180. On the Bulletproof diet, people have lost 1,000,000 pounds. Not eating carbs doesn't work 100% of the time. [04:50] Why We Need To Eat The Right Fats What are our cell membranes made of? Well, it depends where they are found in the body. Look at everything you eat from three different lenses: Is it going to be used as a building block? Is it going to be used as a fuel? What toxins does it have in it? What percentage of your body are carbs? Less than one percent. You do not need carbs as a building block. There is about a two-year half-life of fat in the body. When you eat good fats, it will take two years to make your cell membranes functioning. Saturated fats are awesome because they do not break easily, and they are stable. We have demonized saturated fats. However, 45% of our cell membrane fat is saturated fats. The only fat your body can make is saturated fat. Our brains need these saturated fats. Monounsaturated fats fill in the big building blocks. Omega-3s and omega-6s will be the lubricants. [12:45] Think About Quality Ingredients People will try and put anything in the keto category. It's a problem. The quality of the ingredients matter. The reason grass-fed butter is such a big thing is because the fatty acid ratios are different. Animal fat is so precious – that's why Dave raises his own animals. Part of the keto message has to be “don't eat industrial meat.” It will WRECK your ketosis. Short-ribs from a grass-fed cow are covered in fat. It is a religious experience. Eat less meat and spend more on it if that what it takes to eat grass-fed meat. Half of your fat calories should be saturated. [18:50] Stop Overcooking Your Foods Overcooked food is rough on your liver. When you eat heavily charred meat, you'll feel bad. It doesn't matter if it's delicious; it matters how you will feel when it's done. Parts of our cells will act as incinerators. They burn our proteins and digest them. Overcooked foods will clog them up. If you keep shoveling them in there, then there is no mechanism to clean them up. Do not eat smoked foods! AND MUCH MORE!

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Nina Teicholz. She is an investigative science journalist and leader in nutrition reporting who is challenging the conventional wisdom on dietary fat–particularly, whether saturated fat causes heart disease and whether fat really makes you fat. The New York Times bestselling author of The Big Fat Surprise. Teicholz also serves as Executive Director of The Nutrition Coalition, an independent non-profit group that promotes evidence-based nutrition policy. She is one of a new generation of researchers arguing that diets lower in carbohydrates are a scientifically sound approach for reversing nutrition-related diseases. For more than half a century, we've been told to eat a diet high in grains, low in fat, saturated fat (and cholesterol), but the last two decades of research have led a growing number of scientists to conclude that this diet, despite being rigorously tested, could never be shown to prevent any kind of disease. Teicholz's work also explains why this diet has remained official policy for so long: the roles played by crusading scientists, the food industry, and more. In this episode, Nina opens the show by explaining her obsession with studying fat. Nina realized that people were afraid to talk about fat because the food industry was pushing their agenda. Nina explains what was wrong in the 1950s, leading most people to believe that saturated fats and dietary cholesterol cause heart disease. Later, we talk about why the American Heart Association gets so many health facts wrong. Tune in as Nina busts common myths around red meat and who is really pushing vegan and vegetarian diets.

During her research, Nina came across studies pointing out the flaws in a low-fat diet. However, so many scientists at universities were terrified to talk to Nina about fat. Why? Because people in the food industry were paid to give scientists a hard time. Nina realized there was something really wrong going on here that had such enormous implications. Nutrition science from the very beginning has been heavily influenced by the food industry. For instance, the vegetable oil industry wanted to go after people for attacking vegetable oils in any way. You see the same tactics happening today on social media. [08:55] Polyunsaturated Fats vs. Saturated Fats vs. Monounsaturated Fats Fatty acids are long carbon chains. Poly means many. Polyunsaturated fats have many double bonds. Each time there's a double bond in the chain, it kinks the chain. Some examples of polyunsaturated fats: Corn oil Safflower oil Sunflower oil Canola oil Monounsaturated fats are the same carbon chain but with one double bond. If you want to use oil, it's better to use olive oil because it only has one double bond. Saturated means that the carbon chain is statured with hydrogen, and there is no double bond. It is a flat chain, and it makes a solid like butter. Saturated fats are actually the best for cooking, and they're the healthiest for eating because they do not oxidize or cause inflammation. [17:55] What Went Wrong In The 1950s With Ancel Keys and President Eisenhower The idea that fat, cholesterol, and animal foods are bad for health began in the 1950s. The US was really in a panic over the rising tide of heart disease, which had been virtually nonexistent in the early 1900s. In the 1930s, heart disease became the number one killer. A panic started when President Eisenhower himself had a heart attack in 1955. Eisenhower's doctor was convinced by Ancel Keys that saturated fats and dietary cholesterol cause heart disease. Plus, Ancel Keys got his ideas adopted by the American Heart Association. Ancel came out with a statement saying to avoid saturated fat and cholesterol in order to prevent heart attacks. We are still dealing with this in 2021. [23:00] Why Are Seed Oils Approved by the American Heart Association? How is it possible for the American Heart Association to continue to ignore so much scientific literature? More than 20 papers published in the field have concluded that we got it wrong on saturated fats. There is no data to justify the authorities' limits on these seed oils. It's challenging to trust the government with our health when they recommend seed oils. [31:00] Sorry Vegans, Meat-Eating Is Healthy For Humans Nina did not know how controversial red meat was until she put a picture of it on the cover of her book. Sadly, many people think that if you eat meat, you're a bad person, you don't believe in climate change, and you're not doing your part to protect the climate.

It's important to know that fat is good for you and how avoiding it can actually hurt your health. Listen in for types you should focus on! My guest today is breaking it down for us and giving the true story when it comes to the what, why and how of fats! Rhyan Geiger is a registered dietitian and vegan author who specializes in vegan nutrition. She is the owner of Phoenix Vegan Dietitian where she helps others easily transition to vegan living. She has many years of experience in vegan nutrition and believes in positively impacting the world one bite at a time. Rhyan is an expert in this field and has been featured in Women's Health and Business Insider. You can connect with her on her website (where you can join her newsletter to get a free vegan smoothie book!) or on Instagram. You can also get 10% off her book, A Complete Guide to Grocery Shopping Vegan, with code REALFOOD! Types of Fats Fats are one of the macronutrients (protein, carb, fat) and are really important for your body. There are different types of fats: Monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats are considered healthy fats or heart healthy and are predominately found in foods that come from plants.Trans fat and saturated fats can wreak havoc in your body and are predominately found in foods that come from animals and in fried foods. Why We Need Healthy Fats Because trans and saturated fats can raise your triglycerides and LDL cholesterol, which can lead to heart disease, you want to avoid them for the most part. However a little in an otherwise healthy individual isn't the end of the world. But unsaturated fats are needed in order for our bodies to function properly. Fats do a variety of things. They help build cell membranes and build the surroundings of our nerves, which keep our body moving and functioning. Also vitamins A, D, E, and K are fat soluble and they need fat in order to be absorbed. Without these vitamins you can experience a variety of health issues. Omega 3 fatty acids are a type of polyunsaturated fats. They are really important for brain function like building brain cells. These types of fat typically come from fish, but fish often get them from algae so there are ways to get Omega 3 fats from plants. Algae being one of them, however you can also get them from plant foods like flax seeds, chia seeds and walnuts. Unsaturated keep you heart healthy overall and can help prevent heart disease. But fat also keeps you feeling full, because it takes you longer to digest. This helps regulate your blood sugar, which in turn can help prevention of type 2 diabetes. How Much Fat You Need The dietary reference Intake (DRI) is 20-35% of the total calories you are eating. So this will vary with everyone. Because many of us do not calculate or track our food, another way to visually think about it is through your plate. The MyPlate Guidelines say that half of your plate should be comprised of fruit and/or veggies, one quarter grains and one quarter protein. With fat, you can think about the area in the middle being filled with about two tablespoons of healthy fat. This is simply a guideline and will vary with each meal. Food With Healthy Fats Here are some foods you can include in your diet so you can get in those healthy fats: AvocadoNuts like walnuts, macadamia and almondsSeeds like chia, hemp and flaxNut buttersBeansDark chocolateOlives Here are some ideas on how to use these foods for meals: Adding flax, hemp and chia with fruit into a smoothieMaking a chickpea scramble and adding flax, hemp and chia in with veggiesPutting walnuts in oatmealEating avocado in a sandwich, wrap or tacoEating apples or toast with nut butterMaking dairy free sauces with cashews Also, if you keep these foods eye level in the fridge and pantry you are more likely to grab for them when making meals.

You have heard the saying that "knowledge is power," ut when it comes to the conversations about oils knowledge could be the difference between life and death. In today's episode, join Zane for a deep dive on what Oils to use and what Oils to avoid at all coast. QUICK NOTES FROM ZANE: Avoiding PUFA vegetable oils Current meta analysis of RCT's and epidemiological studies shows no evidence to support the current diet heart hypothesis blaming saturated fat for heart disease Dietary cholesterol limits were removed from US guidelines Our bodies, via the liver and most cells, make the majority of its cholesterol We need to consider cholesterol quality rather than just quantity Inflammation in the lining of arteries creates an environment for small, dense and/or oxidized LDL particles to get caught in plaque formation Omega 6 vegetable oils are a cause of systemic inflammation Our ratio of Omega 6 to Omega 3 fats has increased from 10/1 to 25-50/1 since 1900 due to the introduction of processed Omega 6 fats into our diet Hateful 8: corn, cottonseed, canola, soy, safflower, sunflower, rice bran, grapeseed Polyunsaturated oils (PUFA's) are unstable and easily oxidized causing a free radical cascade in our bodies. Saturated fats are stable and not easily oxidized. Monounsaturated fats are not as easily oxidized as PUFA's Inflammation from an excess of Omega 6 fats increases risk of heart disease. Oxidized fats cause oxidation of LDL particles that are delivering them which increases the risk of those LDL particles getting caught in plaque formation. Recommendations: Reduce Omega 6 oils by not using them for cooking and avoiding processed foods where they are a main ingredient. Eat more wild-caught fish to increase Omega 3 intake. Cook with saturated fats like butter, ghee, lard, coconut oil, beef tallow, duck fat & use monounsaturated oils like olive and avocado oil.

From the last episode we received a lot of questions on exactly what are healthy and unhealthy fats, so today’s episode is dedicated to breaking that down further and giving some practical advice on how to manage that.In this Episode we are going to be exploring:a. Types of dietary fat;b. The History of fat in the diet;c. Which fats are the so-called “healthy fats”;d. Which fats are abjectly unhealthy and why; ande. What you can do about all of that.First of all Fat is an important macronutrient that is critical to the functioning of the body. In provides us with energy, in fact it is the most energy dense macronutrient with 8.9 calories per gram; it helps make and balance our hormones; provides the structure and protection of our cells through the creation of cell membranes; fat is used to form our brains and our nervous system. Fat also acts a transport for Fat soluble vitamins such as A, D, E and K. So, without fat we would be in big trouble.For many decades dietary fat was seen as Public Enemy Number 1. In the 1970s the 7 countries study by Ancel Keys produced a hypothesis that it was dietary fat that was making us fat. There was great debate in the scientific community with many scientists poking holes in Keys’ research and pointing to sugar and refined carbohydrates as being the culprit. But Keys was somehow able to be more convincing and the McGovern report and subject Dietary Guidelines for Americans lead to the “low fat” mantra.Now, the evidence is really speaking for itself. In the subsequent 40 years since those guidelines have been released, obesity rates have triple, diabetes has increased by a factor of 4 and we are spending far more on healthcare than ever before.There are 2 major classes of Fat – Saturated Fat and Unsaturated Fat (with Unsaturated Fat broken down into 3 more subclasses – Monounsaturated; Polyunsaturated; and Trans Fats).So, which are the healthy fats and which are not healthy fatsLet’s start with our Stars – Mono and Poyunsaturated Fats are both considered to be healthy fats. They are both known to increase your HDL and decrease your LDL, which if you recall from Episode 9, that is exactly what we are trying to do to stay healthy.So you are encouraged to find high quality sources of monounsaturated fat including avocados, almonds, eggs, olives and nuts.You are also need sources of essential polyunsaturated fats including Omega-3s from fish, fish oil, eggs, flaxseeds and walnuts and Omega-6 from corn, nuts, seeds, and meat. So, mono and polyunsaturated fats are healthy fats.The tricky ground is Saturated FatsMany studies are now concluding that Saturated Fats are completely healthy in your diet, but I would like to put a moderation and balancing caveat on that. Saturated fats are known to increase both your HDL and LDL and you will remember we want to increase your HDL, but you want to decrease or maintain lower LDL. So a diet that is rich in Saturated Fat should be balanced with a good amount of fibre and good sources of unsaturated fat to improve your HDL and LDL ratio. The universally accepted NO NO is Trans Fats. The small amount of naturally occurring Trans Fat in meat and dairy is fine, but the man-made Trans Fats in margarine, fried foods and cookies is just not safe. There is no safe amount to have. The process of hydrogenation creates a strong bond that makes the product solid at room temperature and makes it stable without going rancid. They same process makes it very difficult for lipase and digestive enzymes to break down Trans Fats leaving them to be a sticky and somewhat solid mess in your body.
Today, I am grateful to have here with me, founder of Bulletproof and author of New York Times bestseller The Bulletproof Diet, a Silicon Valley investor and technology entrepreneur who spent two decades and more than one million dollars to hack his own biology, Dave Asprey. Dave lost 100 pounds without counting calories or excessive exercise, used techniques to upgrade his brain and lift his IQ by 20 points, and lowered his biological age while learning to sleep more efficiently in less time. Learning to do these seemingly impossible things transformed him into a better entrepreneur, a better husband, and a better father. Dave is the creator of the widely popular Bulletproof Coffee, host of the #1 health podcast, Bulletproof Radio, and author of the New York Times bestselling book, The Bulletproof Diet. Through his work Dave provides information, techniques and keys to taking control of and improving your biochemistry, your body and your mind so they work in unison, helping you execute at levels far beyond what you’d expect, without burning out, getting sick, or allowing stress to control your decisions. In this episode, Dave Asprey explains why simply not eating carbs isn’t enough to lose weight and keep the weight off. Dave reveals why we need to eat the rights fats. Whenever you eat something, there are three things you need to think about: will this food be used as a building block, will this food be used as a fuel, and what toxins does the food have? Plus, Dave describes why we need to stop eating overcooked foods and the reasons we should be more concerned with the quality of our ingredients in the foods we eat. // E P I S O D E S P ON S O R S PureForm Omega Plant Based Oils (Best Alternative to Fish Oil): http://www.purelifescience.com Use ben4 for $4.00 off. http://www.Kettleandfire.com/ketokamp and use KETOKAMP at checkout to save 15% on your entire order. [00:45] Why Not Eating Carbs Isn’t Enough The keto diet makes you lose a bunch of weight, and it also causes inflammation. The keto cookies are made with gluten – they are causing inflammation! If you are not in ketosis some of the time, you will not live to 180. On the Bulletproof diet, people have lost 1,000,000 pounds. Not eating carbs doesn’t work 100% of the time. [04:50] Why We Need To Eat The Right Fats What are our cell membranes made of? Well, it depends where they are found in the body. Look at everything you eat from three different lenses: Is it going to be used as a building block? Is it going to be used as a fuel? What toxins does it have in it? What percentage of your body are carbs? Less than one percent. You do not need carbs as a building block. There is about a two-year half-life of fat in the body. When you eat good fats, it will take two years to make your cell membranes functioning. Saturated fats are awesome because they do not break easily, and they are stable. We have demonized saturated fats. However, 45% of our cell membrane fat is saturated fats. The only fat your body can make is saturated fat. Our brains need these saturated fats. Monounsaturated fats fill in the big building blocks. Omega-3s and omega-6s will be the lubricants. [12:45] Think About Quality Ingredients People will try and put anything in the keto category. It’s a problem. The quality of the ingredients matter. The reason grass-fed butter is such a big thing is because the fatty acid ratios are different. Animal fat is so precious – that’s why Dave raises his own animals. Part of the keto message has to be “don’t eat industrial meat.” It will WRECK your ketosis. Short-ribs from a grass-fed cow are covered in fat. It is a religious experience. Eat less meat and spend more on it if that what it takes to eat grass-fed meat. Half of your fat calories should be saturated. [18:50] Stop Overcooking Your Foods Overcooked food is rough on your liver. When you eat heavily charred meat, you’ll feel bad. It doesn’t matter if it’s delicious; it matters how you will feel when it’s done. Parts of our cells will act as incinerators. They burn our proteins and digest them. Overcooked foods will clog them up. If you keep shoveling them in there, then there is no mechanism to clean them up. Do not eat smoked foods! AND MUCH MORE!

Podcast Notes Key Takeaways The different types of fats:Saturated fats (lard, butter)Monounsaturated fats (olive oil, canola oil)Polyunsaturated fats Polyunsaturated fats are further divided into omega-3 (fish oils) and omega-6 (vegetable oils) fatty acidsOmega-6 fatty acid metabolism:We consume linoleic acid (which is mainly found in corn and soybean oils), which is then converted by the liver into arachidonic acidOmega-3 fatty acid metabolism:We consume alpha-linolenic acid (which is mainly found in flaxseed, canola, and soybean oil), which is then converted to EPA by the liver. EPA can then be converted into DHA.In individuals with normal triglyceride levels, EPA/DHA supplementation reduces total cholesterol Fish oils capsules aren’t entirely made of EPA/DHATypically, only 80% (or less) is DHA/EPA – the rest is a mix of monounsaturated/polyunsaturated fatsEPA is heart-healthy EPA/DHA levels are typically measured by measuring concentrations in red blood cells membranes – the measurement is known as “omega-3 index”The optimal omega-3 index (the amount of EPA plus DHA in red blood cell membranes) is 8-12%The average American has an omega-3 index of around 5%Fish with the highest levels of EPA/DHA: Salmon, mackerel, herring, and sardinesIn fish, the benefits of EPA/DHA outweigh the potential adverse effects of mercuryWorry more about increasing your EPA/DHA intake than decreasing seed oil consumption Linoleic acid, the primary omega-6 fatty acid found in vegetable oil, isn’t as unhealthy as you thinkTaking fish oil supplements with food increases absorptionRead the full notes @ podcastnotes.orgIn this episode, Bill Harris, Ph.D. in human nutrition and expert on omega-3 fatty acids, sets the table by clearly defining the families of fatty acids (saturated, monounsaturated, polyunsaturated) before diving into the current landscape of polyunsaturated fat (omega-6 and omega-3) with a particular focus on EPA and DHA (the two main elements of fish oil supplements). Bill gives a historical overview, updates us on the latest science related to the health benefits, and provides plenty of insights as to how we should think about increasing our EPA and DHA intake. We discuss: Bill’s long history of studying fatty acids [6:30]; Defining the fatty acids—SFA, MUFA, PUFA, omega-3, omega-6, and more [9:45]; What is the significance of fatty acids? Why should we care? [19:45]; History of fat phobia, saturated fat, and does PUFA reduce cholesterol? [23:45]; Breaking down the conversion process of omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids including how we get to EPA and DHA [28:00]; Takeaway from Bill’s 1980 study looking at how salmon oil affected cholesterol and triglyceride levels [36:15]; History of our understanding of omega-3 and its effect on LDL cholesterol [45:00]; Prescribed fish oil drugs vs. OTC supplements—Differences and recommended brands [52:00]; Health benefits of EPA [57:45]; Potential benefits of ALA and how it compares to taking EPA and DHA directly [1:12:45]; Health benefits of DHA [1:17:15]; Cell membrane omega-3 index—What is it, the role of genetics, how to increase it, and a recommended target [1:19:00]; Is EPA or DHA neuroprotective? Can it help with depression? [1:23:30]; Recommended fish to eat for EPA and DHA - Any mercury concerns? [1:25:45]; Can omega-3 mitigate risks associated with smoking? [1:29:15]; The problem with the omega-6 to omega-3 ratio [1:30:00]; The problem with labeling any kind of fatty acid as “bad” [1:36:00]; Why increasing EPA and DHA intake matters more than reducing omega-6 intake [1:38:00]; Important takeaway from the VITAL study [1:46:30]; Importance of testing your omega-3 index [1:53:00]; Exciting study coming out soon, and why you need to take your fish oil with food [1:57:15]; and More.

If you've been into natural health long enough the chances are high that you've restricted carbohydrate intake at some point and tried the ketogenic diet. And if you've done the keto diet long enough, you know how many issues it can cause, most notably stress. In this second interview with Atom Bergstrom, we discuss sugar (carbohydrate) and its essential role in the body. We talk about refined sugar, diabetes, candida, immune health, gut health and a lot more!

Hey Weight Loss Nation! www.TheWeightLossNation.com ARE BRUSSELS SPROUTS FROM BRUSSELS? Brussels Sprout are part of the “wild cabbage” & “mustard seed” family. According to the “New World Encyclopedia,” Brussels Sprout were likely cultivated in Ancient Rome and possibly as early as 1200 B.C. in Belgium’s Capital City - Brussels. So.....YES....Brussels Sprout comes from Brussels, Belgium! There is written documentation of Brussels Sprout as early as 1587, being used as a vegetable crop and it is believed Brussels Sprout originated from a mutation from the “Savoy Cabbage.” The vegetable grows as a “Stem,” which the “sprouts” grow into a “cabbage-like” head. Many rows of sprouts are produced on a single…..long…..stem. The leafy, green buds look like miniature “cabbages.” There are two main varieties that are grown. One is the “tall” variety, which stands 2-4 feet tall…..and the second is the “short” variety, which grows to a maximum of 2 feet tall. Brussels Sprout like “cool” temperatures and produces best at between 60-65 Degrees Fahrenheit. Fields are ready for “harvest,” between 90 days to 6 months. Depending on the variety, a Brussels Sprout “stalk,” can product 1 ½ - 3 pounds of Brussels Sprout per Stalk! That’s a lot of Brussels Sprout! Brussels Sprout were brought to the U.S, around 1800, when French Settlers brought them to Louisiana. Commercial production began in the Louisiana Delta around 1925, and production was moved to mid-California in 1939. Some of the production was also moved to New York in the same year. Much of the U.S. production of Brussels Sprout is in California, with a smaller percentage grown in Skagit Valley, Washington, where cool springs, mild summers, and rich soil is perfect for the Brussels Sprout. An even smaller percentage is grown on Long Island, New York, where it is also cool in spring and fall. Currently, there are several thousand acres planted in coastal areas of San Mateo, Santa Cruz, and Monterey counties of California which offer an ideal combination of coastal fog and cool temperatures year-round. About 80 to 85 percent of U.S. production is for the frozen food market, with the remainder for fresh consumption. NUTRITIONAL INFORMATION AMOUNT PER SERVING - 1 Cup = 88gms.

Brussels Sprout have shown promising results in studies, with pancreatic cancer as well as melanoma cancer cells. Brussels Sprouts also contain a lot of “chlorophyll” which gives the plant its GREEN color. Chlorophyll has been shown in studies to block the cancerous effect that “charred” meats generate. 1 Cup of Brussels Sprout gives you a great amount of Calcium & Vit K. Vit K and Calcium are necessary for Bone Strength & Growth. Brussels Sprout contain an “anti-oxidant” called “alpha-lipoic acid,” which studies have shown help lower glucose levels, increase insulin sensitivity and prevent oxidative stress – which means……… “Brussels Sprouts” are part of WLN’s PAC MAN Family! That’s right………Brussels Sprouts are a SUPER FOOD! The alpha-lipoic acid will help search, sound the alarm & fight mutated cells, cancer cells, bacteria & viruses in your body! Brussels sprouts belong to the few vegetables that have protein in them, providing a whopping 4gms of protein in a 1 Cup Serving! They also have a huge amount of Vit C and Vit A, which help you have healthy vision and skin! 1 Cup of Brussels Sprout will provide you with 195% of your daily Vit K allowance, and 125% of your Vit C daily allowance. That’s one Super Food! Friday, on.....Concoction Friday.....I'll be giving you a Brussels Sprout recipe that you can try at home. I haven't had "Brussels Sprout" in like.......50 years!

Raw Honey Will Be Your Secret Weapon This Holiday Season Hello Weight Loss Nation! The holidays are in full swing. You may be attending social events, family gatherings and you may be asked to bring a dessert. If you’re like me…….desserts are a BIG red flag towards living a healthy lifestyle. Working with some of the finest Nutritionists and Weight Loss Experts, I’m learning how to enjoy the holiday season by being mindful of my food choices and choosing to use raw honey as a substitute for sugar. Let me explain to you why raw honey will be your secret weapon this holiday season. What is honey? Honey is a food source for bees in their hive, during the winter, when flower blossoms are not available. Winter means no nectar for the bees! Bees collect pollen & nectar from flowers and plants as they travel, which “sticks” to their legs. Upon returning to the hive, they transfer the pollen & nectar to the “worker bees,” who then prepare the nectar for storage in the “honey combs.” The Bees add enzymes to the nectar, and then store it in the honey combs. In the honey comb chamber, water is evaporated from the stored nectar, and the added enzymes turn the nectar into honey. Mother Nature at her best! According to “The Honey Association”, an average hive needs about 20-30 pounds of honey as a food source to survive the winter. A strong Bee Colony can produce 2-3 times that amount, which allows the extra honey to be harvested and consumed by people. What is honey comprised of? According to “The Honey Association.com” Honey is made up of (80%) natural sugars (18%) water (2%) minerals, vitamins, pollen and protein Of the 80% natural sugar in honey, about 70% is made up of natural Glucose & Fructose (Sugar) The remaining 10% of sugar…. chemically decides whether honey will be in a more liquid or solid state. Honey with more Glucose will be more solid or “set” Honey with more Fructose will contain more liquid. Both varieties are just as pure and additive free. The different forms of sugar reacts VERY differently in our bodies! Check out blogs and articles about Fructose and Glucose on Google. Fructose is a sugar that is metabolized primarily by your LIVER and it is metabolized to FAT more quickly than any other form of Sugar. Fructose is metabolized into ADIPOSE FAT, which is the fat that is stored in your abdominal region and is associated with a higher risk of heart disease. In liquid form, as you have seen as high fructose corn syrup on many food labels, the “fructose” metabolizes quicker, since it isn’t attached to any other carbohydrate molecules. Now let’s take a look at GLUCOSE Glucose is needed by EVERY cell in your body, including brain cells. Since it is needed, your body breaks down glucose immediately, so your cells can use it as energy where needed. Glucose also suppresses the hunger hormone “ghrelin” and it also stimulates the hormone “leptin,” which suppresses your appetite. Fructose on the other hand…..has no effect on “Ghrelin,” and it interferes with the brain and how it communicates with Leptin, which can cause over-eating. When you eat 120 calories of glucose, less than ONE calorie is stored as fat. When you eat 120 calories of fructose, 40 calories are being stored as FAT. 1/3 of Fructose Calorie is stored as FAT! Eating Fructose is basically eating FAT! ******FYI……A great book to get is by Dr. Richard Johnson, Titled – “The Sugar Fix.” Dr Johnson talks all about Fructose & how it effects your body. You can get it on Amazon.com The Sugar Fix Let’s look at the incredible nutritious value of RAW Honey: Nutrition Facts Generic - Organic Raw Honey Per Nutritiondata.self.com Servings: 1 Tbsp (2grams) Calories 64 Sodium 0 mg Total Fat 0 g Potassium 11 mg Saturated 0 g Total Carbs 17 g Polyunsaturated 0 g Dietary Fiber 0 g Monounsaturated 0 g Sugars 17 g Trans 0 g Protein 0 g Cholesterol 0 mg Vitamin A 0% Calcium 0% Vitamin C 0% Iron 0% The most common nutrients found in honey are Vitamin B6, niacin, thiamine, pantothenic acid, and riboflavin. Amounts vary according to the type of flower pollen that is turned into honey. Honey also contains minerals such as copper, calcium, iron, manganese, magnesium, potassium, phosphorus, sodium, and zinc. Antioxidants Honey also has various phen-O-lic acids and flAvonoids which are certain types of antioxidants. As I’ve mentioned on previous episodes, antioxidants help to eliminate free radicals which often play a role in causing many serious diseases, including cancer. Generally, the darker honeys, like buckwheat, will have higher antioxidant levels compared to lighter colored honeys. Now that you’ve learned all about nutritional raw honey, let’s put it to good use. Here’s a Great Raw Honey Recipe to Bring to the Party….that’s Healthy too!
