In this episode, we're talking all things grassfed whey—a supplement we recommend to nearly every client for good reason. From weight loss and lean body mass to metabolic and immune health, the benefits of whey are powerful and broad spectrum. We break down what whey protein is, how it's made, and why we choose to use a whey concentrate over an isolate. We dive into the synergistic compounds found only in whey concentrates that are low heat processed like lactoferrin, CLA, and immunoglobulins—and how they go beyond muscle to support immune resilience, gut lining integrity, and even antioxidant production via glutathione synthesis. We're thrilled to unveil Whey Protect—our upgraded version of Naturally Nourished Grassfed Whey, now with added serum bovine immunoglobulins to further support immunity and reduce inflammation. We touch on how our formula stacks up in purity compared to mainstream brands and discuss the Clean Label Project's recent findings on heavy metals in popular protein powders. Plus, we share our favorite ways to incorporate Whey Protect into your daily routine for optimal health!

Here we are 1 year in and we know a lot more than we did from our last official coverage in February. In this episode we cover updates on masks, disinfectants, and lockdowns, as well as new studies demonstrating lack of efficacy and serious concerns. We also unpack the stats on death toll noting this year there has been no increase in total death count when comparing to prior years sharing the work of John Hopins research demonstrating a reclassification of deaths vs. deaths caused by coronavirus. Beyond classification of deaths, we cover the faulty testing being used to drive the case count.   This episode ensures you are empowered with the connection of susceptibility + infection = disease. The infection or exposure alone may not be significant as updated data demonstrates. However, the restrictions continue to tighten and threats loom into 2022?!? We question the narrative and call out medical incongruency with policy as well as cover food-as-medicine and supplement support.   Have you been infected with COVID? We cover the mechanisms of long-haulers and how to support the body in successfully resetting following exposure to rebound energy, reduce inflammation, and regain mental health.

The only medicine we truly need to live a long and healthy life comes from the food we eat. I’m joined by Ali Miller, RD to talk about her approach to nutrition that focuses on ketosis to treat long-term and chronic health conditions. About Ali Miller, RD Ali Miller is an integrative functional medicine practitioner with a background in naturopathic medicine. She is a Registered and Licensed Dietitian, Certified Diabetes Educator, and has a contagious passion for food-as-medicine developing clinical protocols and virtual programs using nutrients and food as the foundation of treatment. She’s also the author of Naturally Nourished: Food-as-Medicine for Optimal Health cookbook (2016) and The Anti-Anxiety Diet (2018). Her Food-As-Medicine philosophy is supported by up-to-date scientific research for a functional approach to healing the body. Ali’s message has influenced millions through media with television segments, features in O!, Women's Health, and Prevention Magazine, her award-winning podcast, Naturally Nourished, and within the medical community. Find Ali’s expertise through her website offering her blog, podcasts, virtual learning, and access to her practice, Naturally Nourished.   About This Episode Ali is a firm believer that food is medicine and that almost everything our bodies need comes straight from what we eat. Her preferred way to eat is keeping the body in Ketosis to help it heal from inflammation and other long-term and chronic health conditions. She explains how long most people should stay in ketosis and how to effectively refeed. Her recommendation is to eat with your cycle if you’re pre- and peri-menopausal, or to eat with the moon cycle if you’ve gone through menopause.  The other aspect of keto that’s vital for Ali is to enjoy the food you’re eating. This is why it’s so important that you cook your food from scratch wherever possible and make meals that you enjoy. It’s also why you should slow down to savor your food - no more eating on the go! Ali provides a great example of how a 55-year old post-menopausal woman with 50 pounds of excess weight to lose should go into ketosis. The biggest difference to what keto approach is the best comes down to how much weight you have to lose - and Ali explains why this example woman should stay in keto much more strictly than a woman with less or no weight to lose. We also talk about the current COVID-19 pandemic. We both agree that touch, body language, and smiles are essential for everyone, but especially for our young children returning to school. We talk about our beliefs surrounding the pandemic; the overarching belief is that you need to trust the science, not the fear, always. Finally, I ask Ali about her opinion of the Carnivore Diet that I talked about in the last episode of The Girlfriend Doctor. Other than for Crohn’s and Colitis patients or people with severe IBS, she doesn’t recommend this kind of diet. Ali knows the importance that comes from eating a variety of plants. How long do you normally keep your body in ketosis? Have you implemented a refeed period that follows either your cycle or the moon cycle? As always, you can ask me anything and let me hear your thoughts in the comments on the episode page. If you have questions, email team@drannacabeca.com.   In This Episode: How ketosis can help heal your body from antiinflammatory and other long-term diseases How long you should keep your body in ketosis for it to work most efficiently Why it’s so important for you to enjoy the food you’re eating How a 55-year old post-menopausal woman with 50 lbs to lose should approach the keto diet for ultimate nutrition Why you have to follow the science, not the fear Why we need to eat the biodiversity present in plants   Quotes: “When Gabba levels are optimized, it releases this steam train valve that allows the body to feel safe again, it regulates all of those things: the tremors start to reduce, we get this peripheral release from tension, we can see blood pressure regulation, and we can see less of the rumination or “what ifs” in the mental space.” (13:16) “Most people are not in a parasympathetic state when they are taking in nourishment. The importance of something like a digestif, a digestive stimulator, or bitters is that it does drive that bile flow for digestion.” (26:26) “For any virus coming in the next 5, 10, 15 years, metabolic health is really key for optimized immune function.” (43:05)   Resources Mentioned Buy Ali Miller RD's Books Online Listen to the Naturally Nourished Podcast Check out Episode 42: Food As Medicine To Help Anxiety w/ Ali Miller Find Ali Miller, RD Online Follow Ali Miller RD on Facebook | Twitter | Instagram | YouTube | Pinterest Join the KetoGreen Community on Facebook Buy Keto-Green 16 Check out the full show notes on the episode page Find Dr. Anna Online Follow Dr. Anna on Facebook | Instagram | Twitter

This is why it's so important that you cook your food from scratch wherever possible and make meals that you enjoy. It's also why you should slow down to savor your food - no more eating on the go! Ali provides a great example of how a 55-year old post-menopausal woman with 50 pounds of excess weight to lose should go into ketosis. The biggest difference to what keto approach is the best comes down to how much weight you have to lose - and Ali explains why this example woman should stay in keto much more strictly than a woman with less or no weight to lose. We also talk about the current COVID-19 pandemic. We both agree that touch, body language, and smiles are essential for everyone, but especially for our young children returning to school. We talk about our beliefs surrounding the pandemic; the overarching belief is that you need to trust the science, not the fear, always. Finally, I ask Ali about her opinion of the Carnivore Diet that I talked about in the last episode of The Girlfriend Doctor. Other than for Crohn's and Colitis patients or people with severe IBS, she doesn't recommend this kind of diet. Ali knows the importance that comes from eating a variety of plants. How long do you normally keep your body in ketosis? Have you implemented a refeed period that follows either your cycle or the moon cycle?

The importance of something like a digestif, a digestive stimulator, or bitters is that it does drive that bile flow for digestion.” (26:26) “For any virus coming in the next 5, 10, 15 years, metabolic health is really key for optimized immune function.” (43:05)   Resources Mentioned Buy Ali Miller RD's Books Online Listen to the Naturally Nourished Podcast Check out Episode 42: Food As Medicine To Help Anxiety w/ Ali Miller Find Ali Miller, RD Online Follow Ali Miller RD on Facebook | Twitter | Instagram | YouTube | Pinterest Join the KetoGreen Community on Facebook Buy Keto-Green 16 Check out the full show notes on the episode page Find Dr. Anna Online Follow Dr. Anna on Facebook | Instagram | Twitter
