Instead, he represents a version of masculinity where strength also means compassion, responsibility, protecting the natural world, respecting animals and looking after the planet we all share.He is the creator of Plant-Based Academy, where he helps people navigate plant-based fitness and nutrition and shares practical, protein-rich vegan meals and resources. He also has a vibrant instagram page where he shares great vegan content too Follow him here : https://www.instagram.com/steven.willliams/Today I talk about Steven's own journey the experiences that shaped him, the evolution of his beliefs, his personal transformation, and ultimately what led him to become vegan. We also explore how that decision changed far more than simply what was on his plate; it became part of a much bigger transformation in the way he sees himself, masculinity, health, animals and his relationship with the world around him.So this is a conversation about food and fitness, yes, but it's also about growth, identity, compassion and what real strength can look like.

He is the son of Dr T. Colin Campbell, the renowned nutritional biochemist and co-author of The China Study. Nelson wrote and directed the 2015 documentary PlantPure Nation, which explores the health potential of whole-food, plant-based nutrition and the political and economic forces that have limited its adoption. Following the film's release in more than 100 US cities, he founded the nonprofit organisation PlantPure Communities in 2016 and also established PlantPure, a food and nutrition-education business. Nelson and his wife, Kim Campbell, now live in Saluda, North Carolina, where they are developing a community-based model for sharing plant-based nutrition. Through PlantPure Communities, they also host small, immersive retreats in the Blue Ridge Mountains that combine nutritional education, plant-based food, nature and community connection. Before entering the plant-based movement, Nelson spent approximately 25 years as a business entrepreneur. He holds a bachelor's degree in political science and a master's degree in economics from Cornell University. He is an experienced public speaker whose work encompasses nutrition, economics, public policy and social change. He also writes on these subjects through his publication at NelsonCampbell.com. https://plantpurecommunities.org/about-plantpure-communities/ The Whole Truth: The Hidden Agendas Behind Decades of Health Misinformation—and What to Do About It The book investigates how commercial interests, institutional structures and prevailing scientific biases can influence the funding, interpretation and communication of nutrition research. Dr Campbell draws upon more than six decades in nutritional science to examine how reductionist thinking and powerful vested interests have shaped nutrition policy and public understanding. In the final section, Nelson broadens the discussion beyond nutrition science. He examines how these ideas can be communicated to a wider audience and proposes a community-led, bottom-up approach to change—connecting individual health with political participation, social responsibility and collective action. It is both an exposé of the forces behind health misinformation and a call for people to reclaim their agency and help build a healthier, kinder and more connected society.

What impact does hustle culture have on autistic people? In this episode, Livia chats with Louise AKA @neurodivergent_lou on how to navigate autistic burnout, the importance of slowing down, and how to lead a meaningful life in a society that is obsessed with productivity. Lou answers the following questions: What does day-to-day life feel like for you when it comes to time? We live in a society of “hustle culture.” What do you believe are some additional pressures us autistics face when it comes to work and productivity? How do the societal expectations around productivity contribute to autistic burnout? On Instagram, you recently shared how you've been unable to keep up with the pace of life in the same way when you were younger. Can you elaborate on that? How have you started slowing down in life, and what impact has this had on your physical and mental health? Part of slowing down means letting go of activities that fill up your time with “busy work.” What activities have you specifically incorporated or let go of? I believe slowing down can help us feel more present, and thus live a more meaningful life. What does a meaningful life mean to you?

Special Guest Segment: Ashley Frost joins the show to lend her expertise on the #1 destructive emotion. - What diseases are caused by anger? - Why is anger so repressed in women? - Why anger is sacred. - How to work with anger in a healthy way. - Anger release techniques. Knowledge Bomb:  How to have the best morning ritual ever: - What rituals give you the best bang for your buck?  - Why they work. - How to create a sustainable habit. Ashley Frost is a NEO Emotional Release Practitioner specialising in the topic of AngerWork.  Ashley guides people, through psycho-somatic bodywork, to tune in with their deeply repressed emotions such as ANGER, SADNESS, SHAME, GUILT, PLEASURE and more. Allowing ourselves to connect to these primal emotions that also deserve to be expressed. Ashley allows her clients to connect to their true humanness, through radically witnessing and feeling their feelings.  Anger is one of the most repressed emotions within our society. It holds the key to our self autonomy, our power, our ability to take self-responsibility for our lives & actions. Once this energy is awakened it allows us to uphold our boundaries, respect ourselves and the world we live in. It is an emotion so alien to many of us - either not 'allowing' & pushing it down when it does show its head or conversely allowing it to consume us.  AngerWork is about connecting with this emotion, its roots, its impact in our lives, about finding healthy ways to connect with and express it which empower and embolden us.  Instagram:  @Ashleyvfrost  @EmotionalReleases (Institute) I love my Birch mattress, and I think you would too.

Food is a huge part of most cultures. Yet, most people don't realize how the food you eat influences how you think, feel, and behave. What is Functional Medicine? Functional medicine is dedicated to getting to the root of the problem. Traditional medicine focuses on diagnosis and treatment, usually with pharmaceuticals.  Functional medicine focuses on supporting the body more naturally in order to reestablish balance. If you aren't feeling well, lack energy, etc., functional medicine can be used to dive deeper into the root cause of the imbalance in your body. This is a scientific but more natural approach. Both gut health and hormones are critical for our overall health, including our mental health. Gut health in relation to how the food you eat influences how you think The enteric nervous system is housed in our gut, which means the gut is home to a large portion of our nervous system. In addition,  the vagus nerve runs from the gut to the brain. This is how our body communicates either the flight or fight mechanism or rest and digest. The gut is regulated by the microbiome, bacteria in our gut, when the balance is off, the communication to our brain is skewed. And, when the microbiome is off, there is inflammation in the gut as well as in other areas of the body. When you are stressed, your gut health is not prioritized by the body. The gut suffers. Acid levels are altered and nutrients aren't absorbed properly. As a result, you can experience hormonal imbalances, inflammation, and a host of other things. This is why our gut health is so important. If you are struggling with mental health challenges, anxiety, brain fog, depression, or lack of focus, start with nutrition. What are you eating to nourish your body? What foods to avoid to lessen the impact on brain function Gluten - whether you have Celiac disease or not, you can have a gluten sensitivity because gluten causes inflammation in the gut lining which can cause inflammation in other areas of the brain, like brain fog. Gluten and other foods that cause inflammation in the gut affect the mucosa lining the gut. If it becomes too thin, things that are supposed to stay in the cut can cross over and get into the body. This creates an immune response because the body sees these things as foreign objects and thinks it needs to attack them to get rid of them. As a result, the inflammatory by-products of the immune response target other tissues like joints or skin, and you may experience reactions like pain or acne. Likewise, this reaction can result in inflammation in the brain and therefore you may experience brain fog. Corn and soy products are highly inflammatory and are often sprayed heavily with pesticides. In addition, there may be a cross-sensitivity with gluten. You won't necessarily have to avoid them forever, but eliminate them from your diet and reintroduce them when you are asymptomatic. Canola and vegetable oils Artificial colors and sweeteners Preservatives Refined carbohydrates like pasta, bread, pastries, and sugary foods can also cause inflammation. In addition, they may cause a glucose spike which will cause inflammation and affect mental health. Alcohol can mess with your neurotransmitters. Caffeine may not be metabolized as well in certain people. Think about eliminating these items 90% of the time and maybe allow yourself a treat 10% of the time. Where do you start to change your nutrition habits if concerned with how the food you eat influences how you think? Changing nutrition habits is very specific to each individual and their unique symptoms. If you have a lot of gut symptoms, it may be best to do a more comprehensive removal of food. However, if struggling with mental health challenges, but your gut seems okay, eliminate foods based on what's attainable to you. Throwing everything away or eliminating everything at once may not be feasible. If you are going to remove one item at a time, start with gluten. If you can't fully eliminate items, at least reduce them. Listen to episode 169 with Karolina Rzadkowolska. How to alter your alcohol consumption if you are concerned with how the food you eat influences how you think. If you drink every day, cut back to fewer days a week. If drinking multiple drinks every day, cut back to one drink per day. One glass of wine is not going to be the most terrible thing you do for yourself. However, it is important to consider when you drink. If you drink later in the evening, alcohol can influence your sleep because of an imbalance in GABA-glutamate and you'll wake up at around 2 AM and may experience hot flashes, and be thirsty. If you are drinking and you aren't sleeping, think about drinking earlier so that the alcohol metabolizes before you go to bed. Likewise, if you drink a lot, it will alter the food you crave and you'll lean towards less nutritious food in addition to increasing anxiety. One drink per night is probably fine for most people, but observe how it affects you. Let's talk about coffee Caffeine may increase anxiety. It is very specific to how you metabolize caffeine. Matcha green tea is a good alternative because it has caffeine but the caffeine is released steadily so you don't experience the peak and crash like with coffee. It also has L-Thiamine, which is a calming component. Therefore it can help you focus, but you can avoid the jitters or rise in anxiety. If you tolerate coffee, that's great. However, if you think caffeine might be a trigger for you, consider decreasing the intake or changing to Matcha tea. Another tip about coffee is to drink organic because it is often heavily sprayed with pesticides. Decaf coffee may be okay, but because of contamination with mold, Layne highly recommends going with an organic Matcha or green tea. Back to corn and its role in how the food you eat influences the way you think. In general, corn isn't the enemy, it's the processing. However, if you are gluten intolerant, you may cross-react to corn. If this is the case, eliminate it for a while until the gut heals and the mucosa lining builds back up, and then reintroduce it. Layne recommends Siete chips and tortillas because they are made with whole grains versus corn. Soy and its role in how the food you eat influences the way you think. The problem with soy is how it is sprayed and processed. Fermented organic soy is better for you. Do not eat inorganic soy. Tempe is an alternate form of soy, as well as tofu. The Dutch test is a comprehensive test for measuring hormones and determining your digestive pathways. Some people do really well with soy products but for other people, it may put them at higher risk for cancer. Are carbohydrates really the bad guy? Demonizing and avoiding carbs completely is not the best option because you need the micronutrients from fruits. It is the processed carbs that you want to be mindful of. Eat as many fruits and sweet potatoes as you want. To have a really well-balanced nutritious diet you need fruits and vegetables. Avoid white, wheat, and processed bread products. Bread products made from seeds and whole grains are better. But your body sees pasta and bread as sugars. But keep the fruits, potatoes, and vegetables. If going to have carbohydrates, eat the vegetables/fruits first, then the protein, and then the carbohydrates to avoid spikes in blood sugar. It is more about balance and moderation than eliminating completely. Will a gluten-free diet help you lose weight? A gluten-free diet may help you lose weight simply because you are eliminating foods that have been causing inflammation. It does eliminate a lot of the carbohydrates, so there may be weight loss but the goal of a gluten-free diet is to decrease inflammation, not necessarily to lose weight. What should you eat if concerned about how the food you eat influences how you think and you want to ensure a healthy body and brain? Whole foods are important as your main nutrition source. Eat as little processed food as possible. It is best to eat an array of colorful fruits and vegetables. Fruits and vegetables provide antioxidants to decrease inflammation and micronutrients your body needs to detox, balance hormones and feed the good gut bacteria. Good gut bacteria are critical for how our nervous system communicates with our brain. Wild blueberries are one of the top fruits for antioxidant benefits. Try to have 5 servings of fruits and vegetables a day. Healthy fats are also important for every cell in our body to have good integrity and for brain function. Salmon is Layne's favorite healthy fat but she suggested wild-caught salmon because it is the best form. You can also incorporate nuts and seeds, or even drizzle olive oil over your food. Aim for 5 servings of healthy fats a day. Avocados are also a healthy fat. Protein is also very important for brain health. Protein is made up of amino acids and they help our neurotransmitters work properly. Try to eat 30 grams of proteins in every meal. Eating 30 grams of protein for breakfast sets you up for success throughout the day and helps prevent the sugary cravings later in the day. Salmon is also a great source of protein, as well as chicken thighs. It is better to have bone-in chicken because of the nutrients and flavor. Eat a variety of meats, and red meat once or twice a week. A good healthy protein powder is also nice to have on hand because it is hard to get 30 grams of protein in every meal without a little bit of supplement. Nuzest is a clean lean protein powder option. Stress resiliency Stress never really goes away so we need to know how to handle it. Self-care is important for stress resilience. Eating healthy and stepping back from electronics and allowing yourself rest time. Magnesium is an important supplement for neurologic help. Layne recommends the glycinate and L Threonate forms of magnesium. These salts cross the blood-brain barrier. B Vitamins are also important for energy production and nervous system function. Nutrition is important and getting plenty of water is important. Our cells need water to function and energy is needed for our cells. Our parasympathetic nervous system is where we rest and digest. We want this to be our dominant nervous system. Ways to activate it include deep cleansing breaths, getting fresh air, and nature will help lower stress hormones, and focus on movement, exercise will help boost endorphins and help you feel better. In addition, if you have a caffeine intolerance, switch to Matcha or green tea to help you focus. The L Thianine will also help calm you. With anything that you are doing to make big changes, start small. Pick one thing that resonates most and be consistent with that. Set short attainable goals. The top 2 things to keep your mind and body healthy Nutrition - improve your nutrition, whole foods and fruits, and vegetables Regulate your nervous system - take 5 minutes twice a day for breathing, deep cleansing breaths.

Knowledge Bomb: Did you know our baseline for happiness and motivation is less than our parents? Dr. G goes over one of the biggest threats to our mental and physical health and it's the dopamine epidemic. Why is dopamine important? What are the top threats to healthy dopamine levels? What does it mean for our mental and physical health? How do we restore a healthy dopamine balance? Special Guest Segment: Doctors Sonny and Shy, of Satya Health join the show to drop some serious knowledge on the future of holistic healing. We cover topics like: How do we detect and prevent disease early on? Is there a technology accessible to see how healthy we are? What do we need to implement in order to prevent disease? Do specific emotions influence specific organs? How toxic are tattoos? How do we heal from the damage? GUEST BIO: We're an MD couple with a passion to bring forward the truth about the current health paradigm. Satya literally means "essence of truth" in Sanskrit. The truth is that everyone can be healthy if they understand how their bodies work. Society has pulled a veil over people's eyes into believing their health relies on a doctor, procedure or pill. By using genetic science and biofield imaging we can get our own individual blueprint about what our bodies need to function optimally. Not every supplement, lifestyle technique or therapy will work for all of us, so we need to be able to target these modalities to our own biochemical and energetic blueprint. This is a possibility that's unlocked through gene testing and biofield imaging. We've found that when people learn this about themselves, they reclaim their power, and suddenly any disease label or condition disappears. The truth is that health is our fundamental right, we need to take back our power and we're here to show you how.

Joining me today on the podcast is a truly fascinating individual -scientist, environmentalist, and sustainability expert Matthew Shibman, who specialises in the climate and ecological crisis and focuses on projects for the future life on Earth. As a science educator, he aims to ignite curiosity and empower people to drive positive change and combat environmental destruction. In addition to sharing his teachings online where his videos have over 25 million views, Matthew has spoken for TEDxLondon and UN Ops and has delivered keynotes from Wildlife Trusts and the British-Portuguese Chamber of Commerce. Matthew's impressive portfolio of work centered around climate change includes numerous campaigns, supported by the likes of Paul McCartney, the University of Cambridge, Friends of The Earth and the Eden Project. In 2019, his campaign group, Planet A, organised for 1,000 trees to arrive outside the UK parliament. The action saw over 400 MPs collect trees, and led to the UK's tree planting plans multiplying by a factor of 100. A notable recent highlight of Matthew's career is the launch of AimHi Earth -a platform curating transformative learning experiences for organisations and people. AimHi educates young people in particular on climate change and has the “mission to activate a billion nature-first thinkers to build the future we all deserve”. Matthew co-founded the platform alongside school governor Henry Waite during the pandemic. Since then they've run sessions for the House of Lords and thousands of schools and big corporations, reaching people of all ages, ethnicities, and backgrounds. Matthew holds a 1st Class Oxford MChem, and is an award-winning science communicator. He also leads his own podcast A Piece of String. His decade-long experience as a teacher has allowed him to use his voice and his platform for good, inspiring the next generation to transform the world and how we think about climate change. Today we are sitting down to discuss more about his journey, his mission, and his recent work with AimHi Earth. Welcome, Matthew!

This week's podcast is supported by our friends over at Nuzest. You can get 20% off their amazing vegan protein by visiting nuzest.us/pbn20! --- I am so excited to be joined today by none other than Ed Winters (aka Earthling Ed). Ed is a vegan educator who's content boasts over 200 million views, he has also hosted numerous viral speeches, debates, and videos engaging in dialogue with non-vegans and skeptics. Ed has delivered speeches at numerous schools, universities, and major companies including Google, he has engaging audiences all around the world. As an activist, vegan educator and more recently a published author, he is a firm advocate for animal rights and the vegan lifestyle. Ed's advocacy centres around compassion, empathy, and open communication. In 2016, he founded a grassroots animal rights organisation called Surge. Two years later he launched Unity Diner - a non-profit vegan restaurant in London, all the proceeds from which go directly to helping animals. The culmination of that work is his longtime passion project Surge Sanctuary, which houses rescued animals on a vast 18 acre property. Most recently, Ed has published his first book This is Vegan Propaganda (And Other Lies the Meat Industry Tells You), which presents an indisputable case for veganism. This is a book that is as much for non-vegans as it is for those who already lead a vegan lifestyle, empowering them to talk more confidently about veganism with the non-vegans in their life. The book explores the effects of animal farming across the globe and how they are rooted in a number of factors that have created our current system. I am delighted to welcome Ed and find out more about the inspiration behind the book and everything else that he has been up to with his advocacy work recently.

Joining us on the PBN Podcast today is Vikas Garg, CEO and founder of abillion–an online platform and app that helps people around the world live more sustainably and change the world one vegan dish and product at a time. Born in India, raised in New York, and currently based in Singapore, Vikas has been influenced by the various cultures, mindsets, and international encounters he's had throughout his life. He was a lifelong vegetarian, before becoming vegan in 2008. After a successful career in finance, instead of going down the traditional route, Vikas decided to put his skills and expertise towards a pursuit that aligned beliefs with his personal beliefs –a product that would do good and inspire social change. That's how in 2017 the idea for abillion was born and the platform was launched soon after in 2018. abillion has as its mission to change the world one vegan dish or product at a time, making it easier for people around the world to live sustainably. Users post reviews of vegan options at their favourite restaurants or of vegan products they use, creating a direct feedback loop with those businesses and manufacturers, encouraging them to make more sustainable choices. Since its inception, it has grown to include reviews of all kinds of vegan products including sustainable fashion, cosmetics, and more. We're sitting down today with Vikas to discuss how an app like abillion can change the way businesses interact with their customers and ultimately how that can lead to impactful social change on a global level.

Zak is a Londoner of Moroccan-English descent. He has worked with some of the biggest names in the dance music industry including Wookie, Gorgon City, Kaytranada, Don Diablo and Kygo. His style infuses soul, funk, and pop into an infinitely cool and distinct sound. Zak has previously shared that becoming vegan was one of the best decisions he's ever made, as it allowed him to live his best life knowing that he is not harming any animals. In his latest single “Less of a Man” he tackles the topic of toxic masculinity head on. It's a vibrant and catchy tune with witty lyrics that make the track into a bold musical statement.

Joining us on the podcast today are Henry Firth & Ian Theasby, co-founders of BOSH! – the vegan platform that has changed how people think about vegan food showing the world how easy plant-based cooking can be. From two mates from Sheffield to a global sensation, dubbed the Bosh! Boys or “the vegan Ant and Dec”, the duo is as close to vegan superstars as you can get. Since launching their first video in June 2016, which received 3.5 million views in the first week alone, they have taken the plant-based world by storm with delicious and easy-to-follow recipe videos and cookbooks. In 2018, their chart-topping signature cookbook BOSH! Became the first vegan cookbook to rise to number 1 in the Sunday Times bestseller chart and since then they have published several cookbooks that further aim to demystify plant-based eating, share inventive recipes, and show how easy and delicious it can be to eat plants. Ian credits a New Year's resolution for the life-changing decision to go vegetarian and then vegan. Henry's journey, similarly, transformed him overnight from an avid meat-eater to a vegan with a personal mission of demonstrating the life-changing effects of plant-based eating and its global impact on reducing climate change. Henry and Ian are a home-taught cook and have always been big foodies, but what really sets them apart is their personal approach and their great passion for making a meaningful difference. Today the BOSH! platform keeps on growing and reaches millions of people online each month. From launching an online sensation reaching more than half a billion people in their first year to becoming the most-viewed and most-loved plant-based recipe channel, BOSH! is a platform for social good that stands for making a difference in the world through a plant-based revolution one delicious meal at a time.
