Vagus Nerve Stimulation Improves Cognitive Scores in a Small Trial In a 24-week trial involving people with mild cognitive impairment, participants assigned to electrical stimulation at vagus-innervated parts of the ear improved by an average of 3.2 points on a general cognitive test, compared with 0.3 points in a sham-stimulation group. Host Dave Asprey explores the proposed connection between the vagus nerve and the locus coeruleus, a brainstem region involved in attention and learning. He explains why an improved test score is intriguing but does not show that vagus nerve stimulation prevents Alzheimer's disease—or that a consumer device will reproduce the study's results.pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih+1 Sources: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36150665/ https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC13214873/ https://theconversation.com/vagus-nerve-stimulation-shows-promise-as-a-way-to-counter-alzheimers-disease-and-age-related-memory-loss-269465 ~~~Nearly 500 Cat Tumors Reveal Cancer Genes Shared With Humans Researchers analyzed 493 matched tumor and normal-tissue samples across 13 types of cancer in domestic cats. They found alterations in genes familiar to human cancer researchers, including TP53, and tested whether a mutation called FBXW7 might predict drug sensitivity in lab-grown models of feline mammary tumors. Host Dave Asprey examines why naturally occurring cancers in pets could help scientists investigate treatments across species, while making clear that a promising response in six laboratory tumor models is not a proven treatment for cats or people.pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih Sources: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7618901/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41712721/ https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/09/260924231826.htm ~~~Twin-Family Study Challenges a Simple Explanation for Inherited Intelligence Why do parents and children often score similarly on tests of cognitive ability? Researchers using Germany's TwinLife data found that genetic transmission explained more of that resemblance than the particular shared-home-environment pathway their model tested. Host Dave Asprey unpacks the distinction between why relatives resemble one another and whether a child's environment matters. The study does not show that parenting, education, or other experiences have no effect on cognition.pub.uni-bielefeld+1 Sources: https://pub.uni-bielefeld.de/record/2993432 https://www.psypost.org/genetics-not-shared-environments-drives-parent-child-similarities-in-cognitive-ability/ ~~~Mulberry Compounds May Change Gut Bacteria and Metabolism A review of mulberry research highlights how leaves, fruit, and differently processed extracts contain distinct mixtures of compounds that gut microbes may use. In mouse experiments, a fraction combining mulberry polyphenols and polysaccharides produced more favorable microbiome and metabolic changes than either fraction alone; transferring microbes from treated mice passed along some of those effects. Host Dave Asprey explores the idea that a plant extract's preparation may matter as much as its name—and why the findings do not yet establish a microbiome benefit from mulberry products in humans.pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih+1 Sources: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC13406227/ https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/09/260928100551.htm ~~~Magnesium Changes Vitamin D Metabolism—But Not Always in the Same Direction Magnesium helps regulate the pathways that process vitamin D, but “more magnesium means more vitamin D” is too simple. In a 12-week randomized trial involving 180 adults, magnesium supplementation changed a measured vitamin D metabolite differently depending on participants' starting vitamin D levels: the modeled difference was positive at 30 ng/mL and negative at 50 ng/mL. Host Dave Asprey explains why this matters to people tracking supplement stacks and bloodwork, while distinguishing a change in a lab marker from a demonstrated health benefit.pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih+1 Sources: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6693398/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29480918/ https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2018/02/180226122548.htm This episode is designed for biohackers, longevity enthusiasts, pet owners, parents, and anyone trying to separate a compelling biological mechanism from a proven health intervention. Host Dave Asprey examines brain stimulation and memory, what cat cancers could teach human researchers, how genes and environment contribute to cognitive similarity, whether mulberry's microbiome effects translate beyond mice, and why nutrient interactions are rarely as simple as a supplement headline suggests.

Have you ever been so deep in the day to day grind of building your business that you forgot why you started in the first place?It happens fast. You're chasing goals, answering messages, working on the next project, and trying to grow. Before you know it, your business is getting more of you than your health, family, relationships, and the life you're actually trying to create.In this special episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, I'm coming to you straight from the Montana backcountry for our first ever Montana Mastermind hike and pod. No studio. No fancy setup. Just nature, good people, real conversations, and a chance to unplug from the noise.I sit down with my brother Michael Ballard, an entrepreneur and software development business owner originally from Sequim, Washington, who has spent the past eight years living in Stockholm, Sweden. Michael and his team work on mobile apps, websites, and AI implementations, helping bring technology driven ideas to life.But this conversation goes way beyond software and entrepreneurship.Michael shares why getting away from the computer and spending time in nature helps him zoom out and think about the bigger picture. When you're constantly caught in the tactics of running a business, it's easy to lose sight of what you actually want your life to look like.We talk about one of Michael's biggest pieces of business advice, do what you love. His belief is simple. It's incredibly difficult to become great at something you don't actually enjoy doing.We also get into personal growth and what it means to continually work on becoming a better man. Michael talks about following a virtuous path, getting clear on what you want from life, and making sure your daily actions line up with your ambitions.When it comes to health, Michael keeps things practical. Exercise matters, but nutrition is where he believes many people miss the mark. He focuses on getting quality nutrition, prioritizing protein, managing calorie intake, and maintaining a healthy weight.Then we talk money.Michael shares how consistently saving and investing helped give him something he didn't grow up with, financial security. Building a financial cushion gave him peace of mind knowing that even if his business stopped making money, he could still take care of his family.His advice is to start saving, understand what you're investing in, and give your money time to work for you.We also dive into spirituality and connection. Michael uses yoga, movement, prayer, visualization, and time away from devices to reconnect with himself and something greater. Rather than only sitting still to meditate, he finds connection through movement and intentionally stepping away from screens.One of the biggest themes of this conversation is something every entrepreneur needs to hear.You don't have to grind yourself into the ground to become successful.You don't have to sacrifice your family or the people you love just to build a bigger business.Business and money can create a foundation. They can give you freedom and flexibility. But the point is to use that freedom to spend time with people you love, do things you genuinely enjoy, get outside, have epic adventures, and actually live.A few takeaways from this episode:Do work you genuinely love. It's difficult to give your best to something you don't care about.Build financial security one step at a time. Saving and investing consistently can create more freedom and peace of mind for you and your family.Take your health seriously. Nutrition, protein, movement, and maintaining a healthy weight can have a massive impact on how you show up.Get away from your devices. Time in nature can help you step out of the daily tactics and reconnect with the bigger picture.Don't sacrifice your entire life for your business. Entrepreneurship should help create more freedom to enjoy your family, relationships, adventures, and the experiences that actually matter.As Michael puts it, “Living the dream.”We only get one life, Happy Hustlers. Build the business. Make the money. Take care of your health. But don't forget to actually enjoy the ride.If you're an entrepreneur who's been stuck in grind mode, this conversation is your reminder to zoom out, unplug, and reconnect with what you're really building all of this for.Listen to the full episode at https://happyhustle.com/podcast and keep Happy Hustlin'.What does Happy Hustlin' mean to you?For Michael happy hustlin' means you don't have to grind yourself into the ground.

HEALTH NEWS   Small Trial Links Daily Strawberries to Reduced Menstrual Pain Scientists Test an Unexpected Sleep Aid Made From Tree Roots 90% of store receipts contain harmful chemicals linked to cancer, autism and obesity New study highlights red meat sugar as independent risk factor for type 2 diabetes Study suggests skipping sweets during antibiotic treatment may help protect the gut microbiome     Small Trial Links Daily Strawberries to Reduced Menstrual Pain University of Huelva (Spain), September 26 2026 (Natural News)     Women who added about 1½ cups of fresh strawberries to their daily diet for one month reported less menstrual pain than a comparison group, according to a small randomized trial. The trial, published in Frontiers in Nutrition, enrolled 64 women ages 18 to 35 who regularly experienced period cramps, the study stated.   The research team was interested in strawberries because they contain polyphenols, including anthocyanins, which have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.   Participants were randomly assigned to either continue their usual diet or add 250 grams of fresh strawberries each day for one month. After one month, women who ate strawberries daily reported significantly less menstrual pain than those in the comparison group, and the difference met the researchers' threshold for a meaningful improvement. Lower pain scores were still observed at the two-month follow-up, one month after participants stopped eating strawberries.   Scientists Test an Unexpected Sleep Aid Made From Tree Roots Kyushu University (Japan), September 28, 2026 (SciTech Daily) Falling asleep can be compared to easing down a dimmer switch, with brain activity gradually shifting as sleep deepens. Researchers studying Hinoki, or Japanese cypress, are exploring whether its scent could help smooth that transition for women in middle age, when sleep problems are common. In a small study, Japanese women aged 35 to 60 used essential oil extracted from Hinoki roots at bedtime in their own homes. Compared with an unscented control, repeated use over two weeks was associated with fewer nighttime awakenings and feeling less sleepy and more recovered from fatigue in the morning. Brain-wave recordings also showed changes consistent with a smoother transition into deeper sleep. Each participant tried the Hinoki oil for two weeks and the unscented control for two weeks. On nights when they used the oil, the women put three drops in a paper cup, inhaled the scent for 10 seconds, and left the cup about 30 centimeters, or 12 inches, from their nose while sleeping. A wearable brain-wave headband and a smartwatch recorded their sleep.   After seven days of using the oil, participants showed greater delta-wave activity around the time they fell asleep. Delta waves are slow brain waves associated with deep sleep, and the pattern was consistent with a smoother transition into deeper sleep. The improvements in morning sleepiness and recovery from fatigue were reported by day 13.   90% of store receipts contain harmful chemicals linked to cancer, autism and obesity Center for Environmental Health, September 30 2026 (The Conversation)     Approximately 90% of store receipts contain toxic bisphenol chemicals, including BPA and BPS, which are endocrine disruptors linked to serious health conditions.   Holding a single receipt for just 10 seconds can result in skin absorption of BPS above California's safety threshold.   BPS may be 100 times more potent as an endocrine disruptor than BPA, contradicting the safety of "BPA-free" alternatives.   Cashiers and retail workers face significantly higher occupational exposure, with blood tests showing elevated BPS levels after work shifts.   Consumers can reduce exposure by declining printed receipts, opting for emailed receipts and avoiding hand sanitizer before handling thermal paper. Bisphenols are classified as endocrine disruptors, meaning they interfere with the body's hormone systems that control growth, reproduction and metabolism. Research shows BPA interrupts messaging through multiple hormones, most notably estrogen. Exposure has been linked to preterm birth, abnormal fetal brain development, heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes and obesity.   New study highlights red meat sugar as independent risk factor for type 2 diabetes Université Sorbonne Paris Nord (France), September 28 2026 (News-Medical) Preliminary results of an observational study reveal that a sugar called dietary N-glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc), which is common in red meat, is independently associated with a 63% higher risk of developing type 2 diabetes (T2D) in those with the highest versus lowest consumption, even after taking into account other T2D risk factors such as level of physical activity, overall diet, smoking status and other health conditions. The association was weaker but remained significant after also accounting for body mass index (BMI). Most mammals naturally produce a sugar known as Neu5Gc, but humans lost this ability due to an ancient genetic mutation in the CMAH gene. This carbohydrate is found in red meat (particularly beef and lamb), and to a lesser extent in dairy products. When people consume these foods, animal Neu5Gc is absorbed and metabolically incorporated into human tissues, where it acts as a foreign molecule, a so-called xeno-autoantigen. The immune system produces antibodies against it, and the resulting chronic immune activation (xenosialitis) has previously been linked to cardiovascular diseases and cancer. The analysis covered all red meat, including beef, lamb, pork, rabbit, goat, and game meats. Processed meat products (such as bacon, sausages and cured meats) were recorded as a separate food group.. Dairy products were analysed separately. People in the highest quintile had a 63% higher risk, and those in the second-highest quintile a 41% higher risk, of developing T2D compared with those in the lowest quintile (men and women combined). In the highest quintile, men ate a median of 97 g of red meat per day (136 g including processed meat) and women 73 g (96 g), compared with 5 g (21 g) and 0 g (9 g) in the lowest quintile.   Study suggests skipping sweets during antibiotic treatment may help protect the gut microbiome City of Hope, September 30 2026 (Eurekalert) A new study by researchers at City of Hope, one of the largest and most advanced cancer research and treatment organizations in the country and ranked among the nation's leading cancer centers, suggests eating less sugar could protect the microbiome during antibiotic treatment.  Antibiotics disrupt the diversity of our gut bacteria, or microbiomes, which play an essential role in supporting our immune systems and overall health. In the five-year study followed patients who were hospitalized for several weeks to receive intensive chemotherapy, sometimes with radiation, to wipe out their immune systems and then undergo a stem cell transplant. To prevent and treat infections, each patient took at least one antibiotic during their hospital stay, with 80% of them taking one or more of the broad-spectrum antibiotics that exert the strongest effect on the microbiome by targeting many types of bacteria. The research team tracked 9,419 meals eaten by 173 hospitalized patients and profiled the microbiome diversity in stool samples from 158 patients. No matter how the data was analyzed, patients who consumed more sweets while taking antibiotics were more likely to experience a loss of microbiome diversity as aggressive microbes crowded out other strains of bacteria. One organism stood out: Enterococcus. When it takes over the microbiome, patients undergoing transplant face a higher risk of bloodstream infections, graft-versus-host disease and other life-threatening complications. The combination of high-sugar foods and broad-spectrum antibiotics appeared to multiply injury to the microbiome, leading to a substantial 24% drop in bacterial diversity for every 100-gram increase in sweets (equivalent in sugar content to a large milkshake).

Skin Longevity, Cellular Repair, Red Light Therapy & the Biology of Younger Skin with Young Goose Host Dave Asprey sits down with Amitay Eshel and Anastasia Khodzhaeva, co-founders of Young Goose, to explore the emerging science of skin longevity, cellular aging, mitochondrial function, exosomes, NAD+, red light therapy, and what it may take to keep skin functioning younger for longer. Anastasia is a biologist, biohacker, and co-CEO of Young Goose who began her career in biomedical research focused on liver fibrosis and breast cancer before moving into wellness, product development, and longevity-focused skincare. Amitay is co-founder and CEO of Young Goose and host of the Biohacking Beauty podcast, with more than a decade of experience across health, wellness, beauty, and business development. Together, they focus on applying longevity science and performance optimization to skin health. Amitay and Anastasia explain why wrinkles may be only one visible sign of a much deeper biological process involving declining cellular energy, weakened barrier function, oxidative stress, senescence, and changes in how skin cells repair themselves. They break down how newer approaches to skincare are moving beyond surface-level hydration toward targeting the cellular mechanisms associated with aging. The conversation goes deep into testing, including a metabolomics-based approach designed to assess skin metabolic age from a small blood sample and analyze 17 different metabolites. They also discuss emerging proteomics testing that can examine thousands of proteins involved in processes such as collagen production, oxidative stress, mitochondrial function, and cellular repair. Dave, Amitay, and Anastasia explore some of the most unusual compounds now being used in skin longevity, including methylene blue, NAD+ precursors, spermidine, ergothioneine, superoxide dismutase, copper peptides, ectoin, and gotu kola. They explain how these compounds may interact with mitochondrial energy production, oxidative stress, mitophagy, collagen signaling, and the broader hallmarks of aging. They also break down red light therapy and why combining light with certain topical compounds may influence the response. The discussion covers methylene blue and electron transport, copper peptides and mitochondrial biogenesis, light-activated DNA repair enzymes, photodamage, reactive oxygen species, and why dose and timing may matter when using red or near-infrared light. The episode also dives into platelet-derived “Vampire Exosomes,” how exosomes carry cellular instructions through microRNAs, why formulation and stability matter, and how these signaling particles may influence skin repair, inflammation, collagen production, and senescence. Dave and the Young Goose team also discuss growth factors, klotho, senomorphic strategies, cellular longevity, and why extending the functional life of healthy cells may become an important frontier in longevity science. They also explore practical skincare routines, including how to layer products, what Dave uses while traveling, how airplanes and dry environments affect skin, why aggressive acids may not always fit a long-term skin longevity strategy, and how AI-based skin analysis could make skincare increasingly personalized. This is essential listening for anyone interested in skin longevity, anti-aging skincare, exosomes, methylene blue, NAD+, red light therapy, mitochondrial health, senescent cells, collagen, peptides, cellular repair, metabolomics, proteomics, biohacking, and the future of personalized skincare. You'll Learn: Why wrinkles may be a downstream sign of deeper cellular aging How skin metabolic age can be assessed using metabolomics and multiple biological markers What methylene blue may do inside mitochondria and why it pairs with red light How NAD+ precursors, spermidine, copper peptides, SOD, and ergothioneine may support skin biology Why platelet-derived “Vampire Exosomes” are being studied for cellular signaling, repair, and senescence How red light therapy interacts with mitochondrial function, oxidative stress, and DNA repair Why some traditional acids and surface-level skincare strategies may not address long-term skin function How proteomics and AI could change the way skincare is measured and personalized What Dave and the Young Goose team use to support skin during travel and other high-stress environments Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.

Hey hey beautiful human! Feeding yourself every day should not feel like a full-time job. But somehow, it can start to feel that way. The Pinterest search starts. Instagram gets opened. Another recipe gets saved. The grocery list keeps growing. And suddenly, every meal feels like it has to be new, exciting, flavorful, balanced, and cute enough to belong on the internet. Then Wednesday rolls around. Life is busy, nobody feels like cooking, and the meal you planned suddenly feels like way too much work. That is the kind of thing that can make eating well feel way more complicated than it needs to be. In this episode of Embrace Your Real, we are talking about one of the most basic nutrition mistakes I see women making and the small mindset shift that made feeding myself feel so much easier. After this, I hope you stop looking at a basic meal and thinking it is not "enough." I hope you stop feeling like every meal needs to be new, exciting, or recipe-worthy to support your goals. And I hope this gives you permission to make feeding yourself feel a whole lot less dramatic. What's Discussed: Why feeding yourself can start to feel harder than it needs to be The mistake that makes meal planning feel overwhelming Why some meals create more pressure than they need to What to remember when there is no recipe planned How to make a meal feel easier without making it too small Why repeat meals can help during busy weeks How to stop treating shortcuts like a failure Why macros can make basic meals feel less confusing If nutrition feels harder than it needs to, Macro Counting Made Simple can help you bring it back to the basics. Inside, I teach you how to figure out the protein, carbs, and fat your body needs, then show you how to use those numbers with meals that actually fit your life. Head to macrocountingmadesimple.com to get started. If you loved this episode, you will also love Episode 357: 7 Ways to Simplify Your Weekly Meal Planning.

Tomasz (Tomek) Kowalski is a triathlon coach with a great track record of athletes racing Kona, among them age-group world champions and podium finishers. With the IRONMAN World Championship coming up again in Kona we cover everything age-group triathletes need to know to have a successful race there, including when to fly out, training and tapering on the island, heat preparation at home, equipment choices, and pacing, fuelling and hydration on race day.HIGHLIGHTS AND KEY TOPICS:The single most common reason a Kona race goes wrong for age-groupers, and roughly how much of the damage it accounts for.When to fly out: the time-zone rule of thumb, the trade-off between arriving early and arriving fresh, and whether you need to fully adapt to Hawaiian time at all.Training on the island: how much lower your watts and paces can be at the same RPE, how long the last long ride and run should be, and whether to keep touching threshold in the final three weeks.Swimming in the last ten days: open water or pool, how to structure an open water session with no buoys to swim between, and how to use the Hoʻala training swim.Heat preparation before you travel: a hot water immersion protocol with durations and water temperature, and why using a CORE temperature sensor or sweat testing gets less weight than you might expect.Kit for the heat: aero or road helmet, visor or no visor, three headwear options for the run, and whether to change from trisuit to running kit in T2.Pacing the swim, bike and run: how many watts to expect to give up compared with a cooler Ironman, and how the impact of the rollers changes depending on how strong a cyclist you are.Fuelling and hydration in the heat: the body mass loss on the bike that puts your run at risk, and how easily caffeine intake creeps too high.SHOWNOTES, LINKS, RESOURCES AND RELATED EPISODES:That Triathlon Show Community on ROUVYThat Triatlon Show Group Ride on ROUVY - 5 October, 18:00 CET (12pm ET, 9am PT), 25 km / 15.5 miles on the Kona bike course.

Welcome! And thanks for listening. In this solo episode, I wanted to give you an update on my own health, nutrition, and endurance journey over the past several months. After more than 20 years of being plant based, I've made a major shift toward a very low-carbohydrate, animal-based diet and have been closely tracking my glucose and ketones along the way. I've also continued running ultras, which feel better than ever on this new diet. We talk about what I've learned from making this transition, why I've changed the way I think about insulin resistance and metabolic health, and why I believe doctors have to be willing to change their minds when the evidence and our own experiences challenge what we've previously believed. I also share some of the things I think people on both sides of the nutrition debate can agree on, why I believe we should look beyond headlines and study abstracts and actually examine the details of the research, and why being willing to listen to people on the "other side" can ultimately make us better clinicians and better patients. Thanks as always for listening.

In this episode of the Fit Father Project Podcast, I continue our Blind Spots series with a topic most men never think about until it's a problem: Hearing loss.We walk through why age-related hearing loss (presbycusis) isn't some unlucky draw — it's the default trajectory of the human body, and it's already starting for a lot of you in your 40s and 50s.I break down what's actually happening inside your inner ear, why listening becomes cognitively expensive as your hearing declines, and why that cognitive load gets pulled from the same bank account your brain uses for memory and balance.We cover a landmark study linking mild hearing loss to nearly triple the odds of falling, a 2024 Lancet Commission report naming hearing loss the single largest modifiable risk factor for dementia, a simple five-question self-test you can run tonight, and the specific decibel math that explains why your earbuds might be doing more damage than a lawnmower.I close with the nutrition, cardiovascular, and lifestyle habits that protect the hearing you have left — because this isn't just about your ears.It's about staying present, sharp, and steady for your family for life.Rate & Review — If this episode gave you something new to think about, please take a moment to rate and review the Fit Father Project Podcast. Your review helps more busy dads discover practical, science-backed health conversations that can genuinely change their lives.Join the Fit Father Project Community — If you're ready to put these lessons into action with support, accountability, and a brotherhood of men committed to thriving after 40, come join us. We're here to help you build real, lasting health together.Key TakeawaysHearing loss isn't rare bad luck — it's the default trajectory of aging. About 1 in 3 adults age 65-74 has it, nearly half of those over 75 do, and it's already measurable in roughly 1 in 4 adults age 55-64.Listening gets cognitively expensive as your hearing declines. Your brain pays for hearing loss out of the same account it uses for memory, attention, and balance — which is why a loud dinner can leave you completely wiped out.A landmark study (Lin & Ferrucci) found that a mild, 25-decibel hearing loss was linked to nearly 3x higher odds of having fallen in the past year, with every additional 10 decibels adding another 1.4x risk.A 2024 Lancet Commission report identified 14 modifiable dementia risk factors — and hearing loss was the single largest contributor on that entire list.Run the "restaurant test" tonight: if you miss words in group conversation, notice people "mumbling," watch mouths to follow along, feel drained after social nights, or get TV volume comments — two or more yeses means it's time for a hearing test.Decibels are logarithmic, not linear. Earbuds at full volume (110 dB) are only safe for about 15 minutes — doing the same damage to your inner ear that 8 hours of mowing the lawn would.Get a baseline audiogram in your 40s or 50s while your hearing is still normal. It's painless, takes 30-60 minutes, needs no prescription, and is often free at places like Costco.Cardiovascular fitness directly protects your hearing — the inner ear's hair cells rely on fragile, backup-free blood flow, so the same training that protects your heart protects your ears.Nutrition matters: folate-rich foods (lentils, chickpeas, leafy greens, avocado) support low-frequency hearing, and 2+ servings of fish per week is linked to a 20% lower risk of hearing loss.Sudden hearing loss in one or both ears is a medical emergency, not a wait-and-see situation — get it checked out immediately.Ready For A Real Change? Join Fit Father For Life.If this episode reminded you that the little things — your hearing, your blood flow, your recovery — add up to the life you get to live with your family, it's time to stop managing pieces and start building real, lasting health.Fit Father For Life is our full membership built specifically for busy dads over 40.

If you're living with MS and wondering what you can do beyond simply managing symptoms, this episode is a powerful place to start.Pam Bartha was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis at just 28 after losing vision in one eye and developing neurological symptoms. She was told MS was incurable and that progressive disability was likely. Instead, she began investigating what might be contributing to illness—and rebuilding her health from multiple directions. She now describes herself as having lived MS-free for 37 years.In this conversation, we explore why Pam believes parasites and other chronic infections deserve greater attention in MS, the nutrition changes that became foundational to her recovery, and how the mind-body connection—including stress, mindset, purpose, and community—fits into a much larger healing picture.You'll also learn what Pam wishes every newly diagnosed MS patient knew, why she believes recovery requires looking beyond any single intervention, and how to begin taking a more active role in your own health without becoming overwhelmed.If you have MS—or love someone who does—start here.Learn from and connect with Pam Bartha: www.livediseasefree.comJoin my free email community for practical healing tools, research, survivor stories, and encouragement between episodes:https://TheRenegadeNutritionist.comThis podcast is for educational purposes only and does not offer medical advice.

What happens when you have found a well-indicated homeopathic remedy, but progress still seems slower than expected? In this episode of the Homeopathy 247 Podcast, Mary Greensmith speaks with homeopath, iridologist and nutrition practitioner Alice Glendinning about maintaining causes and why looking beyond the remedy can sometimes provide important clues. Alice explores how stress, nutrition, environment, relationships and lifestyle may all form part of the bigger picture when considering a person's health. What Is a Maintaining Cause? Alice describes a maintaining cause as something ongoing in a person's life that may continue to affect their wellbeing. This could include a stressful job, a difficult relationship, environmental factors in the home, poor nutrition, or other circumstances that cannot always be changed immediately. Understanding these influences forms part of the wider homeopathy methodology discussed in this episode. Rather than focusing on one symptom alone, Mary and Alice explore the importance of looking at what is happening around the individual as well. Bringing Iridology Into Homeopathic Practice Alice also introduces iridology, which she uses alongside homeopathy and nutrition in her practice. She explains that iridology involves studying patterns, fibres and markings in the coloured part of the eye. Alice uses these observations as another source of information when considering a client's overall constitution and what areas may deserve further discussion. For Alice, it is another tool that can help her ask questions and build a more complete picture of the individual. Nutrition, Gut Health and Everyday Habits Nutrition is another important part of the conversation. Mary and Alice discuss the relationship between diet, nutrients, the gut and general wellbeing. They also explore how gastrointestinal issues may sometimes encourage someone to look more closely at what they are eating and how their body is responding. Alice talks about fibre, the microbiome and the connection between the gut and brain, as well as the value of experimenting with foods to better understand individual responses. Looking at the Whole Person A recurring theme throughout the episode is individualized medicine. Two people may experience similar symptoms but have very different circumstances surrounding them. Stress, environment, relationships, diet and emotional patterns can all contribute to the wider picture. Alice also talks about helping people become more curious about their symptoms rather than simply taking something and moving on. Listening to Your Body The conversation finishes with a simple message around awareness and self care: listen to your body and stay curious. Alice encourages people to notice patterns, ask questions and consider what may have changed around the time their symptoms began. Sometimes the most useful clue is not another remedy, but recognising something in your everyday life that may need attention. Key Takeaways Maintaining causes may include emotional stress, environmental factors, nutrition, relationships and lifestyle. Homeopathy methodology involves looking beyond individual symptoms to understand the wider picture. Alice uses iridology alongside homeopathy and nutrition as part of her approach. Nutrition and gastrointestinal issues are discussed as important parts of overall wellbeing. Individualized medicine considers each person's circumstances rather than applying the same approach to everyone. Changes in environment or daily habits may provide useful information about recurring symptoms. Listening to your body and becoming curious about patterns can be an important part of self care.

Nutrition advice often reduces food to calories, nutrients, and a list of rules to follow. But the more we learn about how the body responds to different foods, the clearer it becomes that this way of thinking tells only part of the story. Today, I'm joined by cardiologist and public health expert Dr. Dariush Mozaffarian, director of the Food is Medicine Institute at Tufts University and author of the new book Food Is Medicine. We explore what we still get wrong about food and what changes when we begin treating it more like medicine. Here's what we discuss: Why eating less and exercising more may not lead to lasting weight loss, and what to focus on instead How to choose foods that work with your appetite, metabolism, and microbiome rather than relying on calorie counting What GLP-1 medications can teach all of us about hunger, cravings, and why weight isn't simply about willpower How much protein you actually need and why the source matters What the science says about seed oils and which processed foods are worth avoiding Over the years, I've learned to focus less on counting calories or chasing a single nutrient and more on the quality of the food itself. When you eat real, whole foods, the signals that regulate hunger and energy can begin to work with you instead of against you. Eating well should be less about following rules and more about understanding what helps your body function at its best.

“A nutrition facts label for one particular food cannot take the context of your meal or day of eating into account.”Nutrition labels can provide useful information, but they can also become a source of food rules, guilt, and shame when diet culture takes over. In this episode, I'm breaking down where the 2,000-calorie reference point came from, why serving sizes are not recommendations for how much you should eat, and how to use nutrition labels in a way that supports nourishment rather than restriction. We'll also talk about when nutrition labels can be helpful, when they may be doing more harm than good, and how to let your body's hunger, fullness, and energy cues have a say in how you eat.✅ What You'll Learn:Why the 2,000-calorie reference point on nutrition labels does not represent the individual energy needs of most peopleWhy a serving size is a reference amount, not a rule or recommendation for how much you should eatHow to use nutrition labels to help you add nutrition, energy, fiber, or protein instead of focusing on what you should restrictHow to recognize when nutrition labels are overriding your hunger and fullness cues or contributing to guilt, shame, and food rulesWhy the information on a nutrition label lacks the context of your individual needs, hunger, fullness, and overall meal or day of eatingHow food neutrality and body attunement can help you decide whether nutrition labels are actually supportive for you right now

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared closes out the Intelligence of Symptoms series by looking at fatigue, water retention, depression, and anxiety through a different lens. Could these symptoms be signals that the body is asking for something rather than problems that simply need to be suppressed? Jared explores the roles of sleep, chronic stress, screen time, circadian rhythm, electrolytes, digestion, nutrition, and the gut-brain connection. He also examines the long-standing chemical imbalance theory of depression, discusses MTHFR and folic acid metabolism, and shares Jen's personal experience with mental health and nutrition. The goal is not to ignore serious symptoms, but to ask better questions about what may be driving them and how supporting the body's normal function can help restore resilience.Additional Information:***Watch for all 4 parts of this series on Symptoms!671: Are We Medicalizing the Human Experience? with Dr. Roger McFillinVisit the podcast website here: VitalityRadio.comYou can follow @vitalitynutritionbountiful and @vitalityradio on Instagram, or Vitality Radio and Vitality Nutrition on Facebook.

What if menopause could be viewed not as the end of something, but as the beginning of a new chapter? In this episode, Dr. Ian Smith joins us for an in-depth conversation about menopause nutrition, perimenopause, healthy aging, weight management, inflammation, muscle loss, and the role of food in managing midlife health. Dr. Ian wrote The New Menopause Kitchen to help women navigate the physical and nutritional changes that occur during perimenopause, menopause, and postmenopause. His approach focuses on making nutrition simple, actionable, and accessible rather than overwhelming.  Menopause is not a period of resignation—it can be an opportunity to rethink nutrition, movement, strength, and long-term health. By prioritizing protein, fiber, calcium, vitamin D, nutrient-dense whole foods, muscle-building exercise, and an anti-inflammatory lifestyle, women can build a practical foundation for health throughout midlife and beyond.

What happens when gut health, menopause, peptides, nutrition, and food policy all start converging? After seven years of conversations about the future of wellness, the trends are pointing toward a bigger shift: new tools may change how we approach healthspan, and yet the fundamentals still matter.Host Jenn Trepeck closes out The Next Frontier Files, the seven-episode miniseries retrospective from Salad With a Side of Fries as she reflects on year seven. She shares her own take on the next frontier in wellness, and explains how peptides and food policy fit into the future of healthspan. It is a big-picture reminder that the basics still matter most, no matter which new trend arrives next.What You Will Learn in This Episode:✅ Why convergence is the defining theme of year seven, with gut health, menopause, and peptides appearing together like never before.✅ How the GLP-1 boom is pushing fiber and micronutrients into the spotlight, and why muscle wasting is a risk of eating too little.✅ Which foundations, from nutrition and sleep to community, protect your healthspan when new biohacking tools arrive.✅ How a proposed reckoning with the food supply and processed foods could make quality nutrition more affordable.The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast, hosted by Jenn Trepeck, explores real-life wellness and weight-loss topics, debunking myths, misinformation, and flawed science surrounding nutrition and the food industry. Let's dive into real-life wellness and weight loss, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store.TIMESTAMPS:00:00 Welcome to the year seven finale and a look at how wellness trends all converge at once04:15 Philip Pape begins year seven recap with precision medicine, genetics, and artificial intelligence joining forces07:19 Abby Sharp warns against the pathologizing of hunger and our bond with food11:51 Jared St. Clair discusses why gut health and microbiota transplant may explain more than digestion, including mental health13:06 Dr. Stan Pierce shares his perspective on Neuralink, brain-computer interfaces, and new funding for brain research that could change healthcare16:06 Hormones, menopause, thyroid, and peptides as five voices reach beyond their own topics19:14 Sarah Wragge predicts Fiber and micronutrients will take center stage as GLP-1 users risk bone density and muscle loss20:14 Dr. Diane Mueller discusses why aging gets blamed too often, and how community, connection, and cortisol shape healthspan24:38 Dr. Eric Osansky discusses the relationship between cortisol and stress management26:01 Molly McNamee says let's get back to basics: why foundations of health never go out of style as new trends keep cycling26:38 Jenn pulls together all the predictions as well as her own thoughts for the next frontier in wellnessKEY TAKEAWAYS:

You don't need a perfect diet, extreme workouts, or the latest biohack to improve your health span; you need sustainable habits you can maintain. In this episode of The MOVEMENT Movement, Steven Sashen speaks with Dr. Jennifer Timmons, MD, Longevity Physician and the Founder and Medical Director of Timmons Wellness, who explains how movement, nutrition, emotional health, and sleep form the foundation for maintaining health and vitality as we age. She shares practical approaches to building strength, incorporating movement throughout the day, improving sleep quality, eating primarily whole foods, and using small, consistent changes to create meaningful long-term improvements. Jennifer also discusses how daily habits can influence epigenetics, why it's never too late to begin improving fitness, and how simple movement and strength tests can provide insight into functional health. Key Takeaways: → Small improvements across different areas of health can compound over time when practiced consistently. → Nutrition can be individualized, but prioritizing whole foods, adequate protein, and fiber provides a solid foundation. → Daily movement doesn't have to happen in one long workout; you can spread it across shorter periods throughout the day. → Progressive overload can help people build strength by gradually increasing repetitions or weight. → Making exercise easier to start by removing barriers, starting with a manageable amount, and building consistency can help establish a lasting movement habit. Dr. Jennifer Timmons, MD, is a Longevity Physician and the Founder and Medical Director of Timmons Wellness, a concierge medical practice providing hyper-personalized healthcare. With over 10 years of experience practicing traditional primary care at UCLA Health, along with advanced training in Functional and Integrative Medicine, Precision Medicine, and Longevity Medicine, Dr. Timmons is committed to helping people enjoy longer, healthier lives through a customized care model. Her expertise includes hormone optimization, metabolic and cardiovascular health, proactive disease prevention, weight management, and more, blending proven strategies with innovative technologies. As Founder and Medical Director of Timmons Wellness, she helps people move beyond basic wellness toward longevity medicine and build sustainable habits that increase not just the years of their lives, but their number of healthy years.  Connect With Dr. Timmons: Website: https://timmonswellnessmd.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jennifertimmonsmd LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jennifertimmonsmd/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@jennifertimmonsmd Connect with Steven: Xero Shoes: https://xeroshoes.com/ Join the MOVEMENT Movement: https://jointhemovementmovement.com/ X: https://x.com/XeroShoes Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/xeroshoes/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/xeroshoes

In this week's 5 Yrs Ago Flashback episode of the Wade Keller Pro Wrestling Post-show (9-27-2021), PWTorch editor Wade Keller was joined by PWTorch.com's Robert Vallejos to review WWE Monday Night Raw with live calls and emails. They discussed a pre-draft “lame duck” episode storyline-wise and try to make sense of what happened and determine what matters and ultimately didn't matter, including cross-signals and head-scratching women's segments throughout. Also, was it bait and switch or a bonus to have Big E vs. Bobby Lashley twice, thoughts on the reuniting of Hurt Business, what Drew McIntyre's appearance might be about, the standout A.J. Styles vs. Riddle and Sheamus vs. Damian Priest matches, plus Goldberg's boneheaded statement that he hopes to murder Bobby Lashley in Saudi Arabia and was Vince McMahon on the verge of outright cutting Karrion Kross. Oh, some Jimmy Smith bashing and sympathy for Corey Graves holding it together as well as he does each week.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/wade-keller-pro-wrestling-post-shows--3275545/support.

Fish Oil, Full-Spectrum Omega-3s, and Immunometabolism with Dr. Jeffrey Bland: Dr. Ronald Hoffman interviews Dr. Jeffrey Bland, founder of the Personalized Lifestyle Medicine Institute and Big Bold Health, about fish oil and omega-3 science. Bland recounts becoming involved with commercial fish oil in 1980 while promoting MaxEPA amid the “fat is bad” era and discusses Greenland Inuit research showing high omega-3 blood levels and low heart disease. They contrast whole-food omega-3 intake with highly refined EPA/DHA products, highlighting additional constituents in minimally processed oils (vitamins A and D, astaxanthin) and precursor compounds related to specialized pro-resolving mediators. Bland describes Omega-3 Rejuvenate's Alaska line-caught sourcing and low-heat, chemical-free processing, and addresses concerns about mercury, microplastics, and vitamin A dosing. The conversation also covers PLMI's focus on immunometabolism, a CBC-derived SIRI marker, omega-3 insufficiency data from Fullscript, mitochondrial membrane support by DHA, and Bland's upcoming book, “The Nourished Gene.”

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Dr. Jeffrey Bland, founder of the Personalized Lifestyle Medicine Institute and Big Bold Health, about fish oil and omega-3 science.

Fatty Liver, GLP-1s, Alcohol, Hormones, Brain Fog, Weight Gain & Longevity Host Dave Asprey sits down with Siggi Clavien, Founder and CEO of The Liver Clinic and de-liver-ance, to explore why the liver may be one of the most overlooked organs in metabolism, hormone health, detoxification, brain function, weight management, and longevity. Siggi explains why fatty liver can develop without obvious symptoms and why someone can appear lean and healthy while still have significant liver fat. Drawing on thousands of liver scans, he shares what his team has observed in people whose blood markers appeared normal despite signs of fatty liver on imaging, and explains how tools such as FibroScan can reveal liver fat, stiffness, and fibrosis. Dave and Siggi go deep into triglycerides, cholesterol, insulin resistance, brain fog, weight gain, bile production, thyroid hormone activation, testosterone, estrogen metabolism, and liver regeneration. They also explore how alcohol, environmental chemicals, plastics, processed foods, artificial sweeteners, medications, and other exposures may place additional stress on the liver. The conversation also tackles rapid weight loss and GLP-1 medications, including Siggi's concerns about compounds released from fat tissue during aggressive weight loss and why protecting muscle, eating enough protein, and supporting liver function may matter during the process. Dave and Siggi also discuss alcohol, estrogen, hormone replacement therapy, glutathione, choline, bile flow, supplement quality, and why liver health may influence systems throughout the body. The episode takes an unexpected turn into microchimerism and organ transplantation, including donor cells, DNA, cellular memory, and reported changes in behavior or personality after transplantation. This is essential listening for anyone interested in fatty liver, metabolic health, GLP-1s, weight loss, hormone health, estrogen, testosterone, thyroid function, alcohol, brain fog, insulin resistance, liver scans, longevity, choline, glutathione, bile flow, and biohacking. You'll Learn: Why fatty liver can develop even in people who are thin or rarely drink alcohol Why normal bloodwork may not always reveal what is happening inside the liver How liver health connects to metabolism, brain fog, weight gain, hormones, and thyroid function What rapid weight loss and GLP-1 use may mean for liver function How alcohol, estrogen, HRT, bile, choline, and glutathione interact with liver health Why liver scans, nutrition, and supplement quality may matter for long-term health Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking. With over 1,000 interviews and 1 million monthly listeners, The Human Upgrade brings you the knowledge to take control of your biology, extend your longevity, and optimize every system in your body and mind.

All Home Care Matters and our host, Lance A. Slatton, were honored to welcome Dr. Hussen Amen, board-certified family medicine physician and founder of Amen Family Medicine, as a guest to the show. In this important conversation, Dr. Amen joins Lance to discuss the role proactive primary care can play in helping older adults maintain their health, independence, and quality of life while safely aging in place. The discussion explores the Medicare Annual Wellness Visit and why it is different from a traditional physical, as well as some of the important health concerns primary care physicians look for as patients age. Dr. Amen shares valuable insight into fall prevention, changes in mobility, memory and cognitive concerns, medication management and polypharmacy, preventive screenings, nutrition, advance care planning, and the importance of identifying subtle health changes before they develop into a medical crisis. Lance and Dr. Amen also discuss the important role family caregivers can play as part of a loved one's healthcare team and why establishing a strong relationship with a trusted primary care physician before a crisis occurs can make a meaningful difference. For older adults and their families, proactive healthcare is about more than treating illness. It is about prevention, early detection, communication, and helping individuals remain as healthy and independent as possible. About Dr. Hussen Amen: Dr. Hussen Amen is a board-certified family medicine physician and the founder of Amen Family Medicine, an independent primary care practice in Livonia, Michigan. A Metro Detroit native who grew up in Dearborn, Dr. Amen earned his bachelor's degree in Nutrition and Food Science from Wayne State University before receiving his medical degree from St. George's University School of Medicine. He completed his Family Medicine residency at Trinity Health Livonia, where he continues to maintain hospital privileges. Living with Type 1 diabetes since childhood has given Dr. Amen a unique perspective on the patient experience and the importance of preventive, relationship-centered care. His clinical interests include preventive medicine, chronic disease management, sports medicine, and point-of-care ultrasound. He is passionate about helping patients stay healthy, maintain their independence, and avoid preventable hospitalizations through proactive primary care and patient education. About Amen Family Medicine: Amen Family Medicine is an independent primary care practice located in Livonia, Michigan, founded by Dr. Hussen Amen with the mission of providing personalized, relationship-centered healthcare for patients of all ages. As a privately owned practice, Amen Family Medicine focuses on building lasting relationships with patients while delivering accessible, evidence-based care tailored to each individual's needs. The practice offers comprehensive family medicine services including preventive care, annual wellness visits, chronic disease management, same-day sick visits, women's health, pediatric care, sports medicine, and minor office procedures. Amen Family Medicine also provides in-office digital X-ray, point-of-care ultrasound, laboratory services, EKGs, and ultrasound-guided procedures, allowing many conditions to be evaluated and treated conveniently under one roof. For older adults, the practice emphasizes preventive care, medication management, fall prevention, cognitive screening, and coordination with caregivers and specialists to help patients maintain their health, independence, and quality of life. At Amen Family Medicine, the philosophy is that primary care should be proactive rather than reactive.  

It's just a fact that people are far more tuned into current events — AI, data centers, bad TV shows and politics — while their eyes are glued to their mobile phones than what they put in their mouths, thus putting their health at a far greater risk than ever before.The bigger problem: There's a wealth of research that shows how and why eating nutrient-rich organic food and grass-fed meats really matters but few know about it outside the realm of research.Dr. Autumn Smith, co-founder of Paleovalley and Wild Pastures, shares what she's learned about glycine (one of the most overlooked nutrients in modern nutrition), brain nutrition and what you should be avoiding this week on Spirit Gym.Download Autumn's presentation she shares during her Spirit Gym conversation with Paul — The Glycine Gap — at this link.Learn more about Autumn's inspiring journey on YouTube and watch her eight-part ReThink Meat series here.

Today we jump back 15 years to two back-to-back episodes of the PWTorch Livecast from Sept. 18 and 19, 2011.On the Sept. 18, 2011 episode, PWTorch assistant editor James Caldwell and PWTorch columnist Greg Parks discussed with live callers the just-completed PPV from all angles, with Parks in-person at the PPV to compare notes on the event. They focused on the big three matches - World Title, WWE Title, and Hunter-Punk, including a weird R-Truth moment, the booking of Beth Phoenix-Kelly Kelly, the latest John Cena title victory, whether CM Punk gained or lost anything in the main event, the over-arching issue of WWE devaluing titles and whether the titles, stories, or both are not over, announcing issues, look-ahead to Survivor Series with Rock and Cena, and more. In the previously VIP-exclusive Aftershow, they talked more about Parks's in-person perspective, including a fight in the stands, and much more.Then on the Sept. 19, 2011 episode, Wade was joined by PWTorch columnist Bruce Mitchell. They discussed with live callers questions needing to be answered on Raw coming out of Night of Champions, whether people should wait and see if questions are answered or if there's some concern with WWE storyline direction, Mark Henry's big night, John Cena's latest title victory and why WWE went that direction, historical background on Kofi Kingston's offensive logo, Matt Hardy announcing he's going to rehab, why Steve Austin may or may not return at WrestleMania, and much more. Jason D. From Australia made an appearance late in the show as a caller.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/wade-keller-pro-wrestling-podcast--3076978/support.

The most effective way to reduce visceral fat is a combination of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and resistance training, though regular moderate-intensity cardio or aerobic exercise also helps, according to current research.In this episode of the “NASM CPT Podcast,” host Rick Richey unpacks the scientific evidence on exercise strategies for reducing visceral fat, addressing frequent confusion over whether HIIT or continuous moderate-intensity exercise is better. Citing several systematic reviews and meta-analyses, Rick explains that while some studies show no clear advantage between HIIT and steady-state cardio, many find that interval training, especially when extended beyond 12 weeks, provides superior reductions in visceral fat, particularly for individuals with overweight or obesity. He also highlights that progressive, combined training—mixing vigorous-intensity cardio with moderate or low-intensity resistance training—can further support visceral fat loss, which is particularly beneficial for at-risk groups such as older adults and postmenopausal women. Listeners will learn how to apply these research-backed exercise protocols for themselves or their clients, how to track progress, and why gradual progression is key, especially for those new to higher intensity workouts. This presentation also offers practical coaching insights on how to encourage clients to embrace challenging new routines.

The conversation begins with introductions and an overview of Dr. Wilkens' research examining vitamin D biology across ruminants and other livestock species. It is explained that vitamin D should not be viewed solely as a vitamin but rather as the precursor to a highly regulated steroid hormone system with complex feedback mechanisms that influence numerous physiological processes throughout the body. The panel discusses how activation and regulation of vitamin D metabolism affects livestock health and why a deeper understanding of these pathways continues to be important for both researchers and nutritionists (00:00 – 06:59). Building on that foundation, the discussion explores emerging areas of vitamin D research beyond its traditional role in preventing rickets and supporting skeletal development. Evidence suggesting vitamin D may influence muscle function, recovery, immune responses, and other physiological systems is reviewed. However, the panel also emphasizes that caution should be exercised when interpreting observational studies, since associations do not necessarily establish causation. Consequently, additional controlled research is believed to be necessary before broader conclusions can be drawn (07:00 – 10:33). Attention then turns to one of the most frequently debated questions in mineral nutrition: what constitutes an optimal vitamin D status in modern dairy cattle. Plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentrations are discussed as a common biomarker, yet challenges remain when attempting to define ideal target values. Furthermore, differences observed between pasture-raised and indoor-housed animals are examined, illustrating the complexity of developing universal recommendations. As dairy production systems continue to evolve, uncertainty remains regarding the most appropriate vitamin D supplementation strategies for high-producing livestock (10:34 – 16:47). The relationship between vitamin D, calcium, phosphorus, and vitamin K is subsequently explored. Questions surrounding vitamin K2 supplementation, calcium transport mechanisms, and mineral metabolism are discussed in detail. In addition, species-specific differences are highlighted as an important factor that complicates the development of broad nutritional recommendations across animal populations (16:48 – 18:38). A major focus of the episode centers on phosphorus management and transition cow health. Dr. Wilkens and the panel discuss phosphorus binders and their potential role in hypocalcemia prevention by influencing calcium homeostasis. The biological mechanisms linking phosphorus restriction and calcium metabolism are examined, while practical questions regarding implementation and effectiveness are also considered. As a result, listeners gain insight into how phosphorus-binding strategies may complement established approaches used to reduce milk fever risk in dairy herds (18:39 – 21:24). The conversation then shifts toward vitamin D's role in immune function. Research examining the local production of active vitamin D metabolites within immune cells is reviewed, along with evidence suggesting vitamin D status may affect immune responses under specific challenge conditions. While promising findings have been reported, the panel notes that additional work remains necessary to fully understand these relationships and their practical applications in livestock production systems ((21:25 – 23:10). Vitamin D nutrition in calves and young animals is also discussed. Natural vitamin D concentrations found in colostrum and milk are reviewed alongside supplementation strategies commonly used in milk replacers. However, it is noted that much of the available research focuses primarily on preventing classical deficiency diseases, while comparatively little information exists regarding optimal vitamin D levels for growth, immunity, and overall performance in young animals. Consequently, significant opportunities for future research continue to exist in this area (23:11 – 27:16). The episode also addresses vitamin D toxicity and excessive supplementation. Toxicity thresholds, elevated circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentrations, and clinical observations from cattle and camelid species are examined. Furthermore, the panel discusses how different vitamin D metabolites can contribute to both intended physiological responses and unintended consequences when supplementation exceeds biological requirements (27:17 – 35:24). A detailed conversation follows regarding the practical implementation of phosphorus binders in transition cow programs. Drawing from commercial field experiences, Dr. Schwab shares insights regarding dosage recommendations, monitoring strategies, lessons learned, and the potential risks associated with excessive phosphorus restriction. The panel also discusses how phosphorus binders are currently being utilized in commercial settings and where additional research is still needed to better define best practices (35:25 – 46:25). The discussion then broadens beyond dairy cattle to examine phosphorus metabolism across species. Emerging concerns related to phosphorus consumption, kidney health, feline nutrition, and species-specific mechanisms of phosphorus absorption and regulation are explored. These comparisons provide valuable perspective on how findings from companion animal and human nutrition research may help guide future investigations in livestock species (46:26 – 50:53). The episode concludes with reflections from each panelist on the future of vitamin D and mineral nutrition research. The complexity of vitamin D biology is emphasized throughout the discussion, while the need for additional dose-response studies is repeatedly highlighted. Similarly, the value of integrating field observations with mechanistic science is reinforced. Ultimately, continued collaboration among academia, industry, nutritionists, veterinarians, and producers is viewed as essential for advancing nutritional understanding and improving animal health outcomes (50:54 – 56:05).

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with clinical pharmacist and nutritionist Jim LaValle about cardiovascular risk factors beyond total cholesterol.

Cholesterol Beyond the Basics: ApoB, Lp(a), Stress, and Aged Garlic Extract for Cardiovascular Risk: Dr. Ronald Hoffman interviews clinical pharmacist and nutritionist Jim LaValle about cardiovascular risk factors beyond total cholesterol, emphasizing that blood tests measure lipoprotein particles and subfractions rather than cholesterol itself. They discuss limitations of relying on surrogate markers, the role of lifestyle (diet, exercise, sleep, stress, glucose control), and advanced markers such as ApoB, Lp(a), oxidized LDL, and Lp-PLA2, noting that lowering Lp(a) or improving markers doesn't always improve outcomes. LaValle highlights ApoB as a key risk barometer, reviews evidence for aged garlic extract lowering ApoB, slowing coronary artery calcification, regressing vulnerable plaque, and improving vascular function, and supports combining supplements with appropriate medications. They address lean-mass hyper-responders on ketogenic diets, debate broad statin use in seniors, and cover stress/cortisol dysregulation, hormone effects, and appropriate use of GLP-1 drugs for weight and metabolic risk.
