Tailored training – HIIT, resistance, and recovery should shift with life stages. Hormonal health – Perimenopause and menopause impact performance and should be understood.

Nutritionist Leyla Muedin, a registered dietician nutritionist, details the holistic health benefits of yoga for oral and gastrointestinal health. Based on recent research published in BMC Oral Health and the Journal of International Society of Preventive and Community Dentistry, she discusses how yoga can improve periodontal health by reducing stress and systemic inflammation. She also explores specific yoga poses and breathing techniques that support digestion and reduce stress-related gut issues like IBS. Throughout, Leyal emphasizes that yoga's benefits extend beyond flexibility, offering a holistic path to overall well-being. She encourages listeners to integrate yoga into their self-care routines for comprehensive health improvements.

Angela and special guest Peter Crone look at the psychological barriers that prevent people from overcoming negative, repeated life patterns, asserting that these habitual actions are merely symptoms of deeper, unaccepted subconscious beliefs about oneself.  They examine the concept of the "fresh start effect" and explains that true freedom from a cycle of self-sabotage, whether in relationships, finance, or career, begins with the radical acceptance of one's past KEY TAKEAWAYS: Repeated negative patterns are symptomatic of unrecognised, deeper subconscious constraints and self-views, rather than the core problem itself. The "I could have done this" or "I should have done that" narrative is a lie that serves only to reinforce the ego's view of itself as inadequate, keeping a cycle of self-judgement alive. True breakthrough and high performance come from accepting your personal history completely, using the logic that "what happened happened and couldn't have happened any other way because it didn't," which eliminates the psychological time of past regret and future worry. The fear of the unknown is a misconception; people are actually scared of what their brain, using a history of failures, is superimposing onto the blank canvas of the future. TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: The idea that patterns are symptomatic of something deeper (03:52) The profound quote on accepting your past (09:59) The story of the professional athlete who was told he had the "capacity to suck" (14:38) The final, liberating thought on why people fear the unknown (22:42) VALUABLE RESOURCES ⁠Join The High Performance Health Community⁠ ⁠Click here⁠ for discounts on all the products I personally use and recommend Link to full episode ABOUT THE HOST Angela Foster is an award winning Nutritionist, Health & Performance Coach, Speaker and Host of the High Performance Health podcast.

Angela is joined by internationally renowned medical doctor and researcher Dr. William Li for an eye-opening conversation about metabolism, fat loss, and the science of food as medicine. Dr. Li debunks common myths, like the belief that metabolism “slows down” with age, and explains how excess body fat, not age, is the real driver of metabolic decline. They also explore groundbreaking research on foods that activate brown fat, reduce visceral fat, and improve health span, offering practical, science-backed strategies you can use today. KEY TAKEAWAYS Metabolism Myths Debunked: Human metabolism remains rock-stable from ages 20–60 and only slightly declines after that. The real issue is excess fat, not aging. Visceral vs. Brown Fat: Visceral fat harms metabolism, while brown fat is metabolically active and helps burn visceral fat. Food as Medicine: Everyday foods like tomatoes, berries, extra virgin olive oil, and even coffee can activate brown fat and improve metabolic health. Lifestyle Choices Matter: Stress, poor sleep, alcohol, and ultra-processed foods slow metabolism. With the right choices, 60 can truly be the new 20. Personalized Health: There's no one-size-fits-all prescription. How you live, eat, and manage stress determines how well your metabolism functions.

Angela and Kate Muir look at the profound impact of perimenopause on women's mental health, particularly for those with a history of conditions like postpartum depression, who may be more sensitive to hormonal fluctuations.  Kate explains the neurological changes during menopause using the analogy of "Inside Out" characters, highlighting how the decline of key hormones like oestrogen (joyful) and progesterone (calming) and the resulting increase in cortisol can lead to symptoms like anxiety, depression, sleeplessness, and brain fog, severely affecting confidence and productivity KEY TAKEAWAYS: Hormonal Sensitivity: Women with a history of mental health issues like postpartum depression are often more sensitive to the hormonal fluctuations of perimenopause The Brain's Hormonal Shift: The decline of oestrogen (linked to serotonin) and progesterone (calming) during menopause leaves hormone receptors empty, leading to increased cortisol  Under-Recognised Benefits of Testosterone: Beyond libido, testosterone is crucial for women's mental health, aiding in motivation, drive, and cognitive function Holistic Support for Brain Health: Optimising nutrition (high protein), sleep hygiene (using micro-recoveries and supplements like L-theanine and phosphatidylserine), and specific exercises (compound lifts to increase BDNF) can significantly support brain health TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: [0:22] -: Link Between Postpartum Depression and Perimenopause [1:27] -: "Inside Out" Analogy for Hormonal Decline [2:45] -: Mental Health Symptoms and Physical Effects [7:47] -: Testosterone's Role Beyond Libido VALUABLE RESOURCES ⁠Join The High Performance Health Community⁠ ⁠Click here⁠ for discounts on all the products I personally use and recommend A BIG thank you to our sponsors who make the show possible: ABOUT THE HOST Angela Foster is an award winning Nutritionist, Health & Performance Coach, Speaker and Host of the High Performance Health podcast.
