To måneder har gått siden vi satte intensjonene våre for høsten. Nå sjekker vi inn igjen med det som har skjedd i virkeligheten.For Silje har høsten handlet om å faktisk stå i valgene hun tok: mer mat, mer styrke, mer fokus. Det har gått bra. Veldig bra, egentlig. Men når man skrur opp girene litt - så merker man også friksjonen. Trening har vært noe hun gjør fordi det er viktig, ikke alltid fordi det føles lett. Men fundamentet holder. Og det betyr mye.Ingela har tatt små, men tydelige grep over hverdagen. Mer mat hjemme, mer bevissthet rundt når man velger kos, og ikke bare glir inn i den. Turene har blitt bedre, men ikke perfekt - noen dager på stranden, andre dager på mølla. Ikke perfekt, men bedre. Og bedre er bedre.Denne episoden handler om akkurat det:At vi kan være stolte uten å være ferdige.At mål kan føles både nærmere og lenger unna på samme tid.At progresjon ikke alltid er synlig, men likevel helt reell.Lytt med når vi prater om å justere forventninger, holde kursen når motivasjonen svinger, og finne fremdrift i de helt små valgene i hverdagen.Ta gjerne en sjekk på hvor du står nå, to måneder inn i høsten - vi heier, som alltid!Vi har lagd Livsstilsprats løpeklubb, så om du vil være med er det bare å tagge og på instagram og skrive «livsstilsprats løpeklubb» i posten eller stories!Har du et spørsmål til podcasten?

Diese Folge auf YouTube ansehen und den YouTube Kanal abonnieren, um keine neue Folge mehr zu verpassen.ZusammenfassungIn dieser spannenden Episode begrüßt Julia Psychotherapeutin Eva Gallacher, Expertin für Psychedelika in der Psychotherapie. Eva teilt ihren persönlichen Weg zu diesem lange stigmatisierten Thema und enthüllt, dass sogar der Gründer ihrer Psychotherapieschule, Hanscarl Leuner, bereits intensiv mit psychedelisch-assistierter Therapie gearbeitet hat. Wir beleuchten, warum neue Therapieansätze so dringend benötigt werden, insbesondere für Patienten mit therapieresistenter Depression, Angststörungen und posttraumatischer Belastungsstörung (PTBS), bei denen herkömmliche Behandlungen oft an ihre Grenzen stoßen.Eva erklärt die faszinierende Geschichte der Psychedelika Psychotherapie, von der Entdeckung des LSD durch Albert Hofmann bis zum "War on Drugs" in den 1960er Jahren, der die vielversprechende Forschung für Jahrzehnte zum Erliegen brachte. Sie räumt mit Vorurteilen auf und vergleicht die tatsächliche Gefährlichkeit von Psychedelika mit anderen Substanzen wie Alkohol, basierend auf Studien von David Nutt. Klassische Psychedelika wie LSD und Psilocybin zeigen dabei ein geringes Abhängigkeitspotenzial. Wir tauchen ein in die Wirkweisen verschiedener Substanzen – von klassischen Psychedelika, die am Serotonin-Rezeptor ansetzen, über MDMA als Entaktogen bis hin zu Ketamin, das bereits legal bei Depressionen eingesetzt wird.Ein zentrales Thema ist der rechtliche Status: Während in der Schweiz seit über zehn Jahren individuelle Bewilligungen für psychedelisch-assistierte Therapien möglich sind und Tschechien Psilocybin ab 2026 legalisiert, steht Österreich noch am Anfang. Eva betont die absolute Notwendigkeit einer professionellen, gut strukturierten Therapie, die aus Vorbereitung, einer mehrstündigen Dosissitzung (oft mit zwei Therapeuten) und anschließenden Integrationssitzungen besteht. Es wird klar, dass dies keine "Wunderpille" ist, sondern intensive therapeutische Arbeit erfordert, bei der auch schwierige Erfahrungen zu den wertvollsten Einsichten führen können. Die Rolle des Therapeuten ist dabei entscheidend, um einen sicheren Rahmen zu gewährleisten. Eva spricht auch über wichtige Kontraindikationen wie Psychosen oder bestimmte Herzerkrankungen und die Arbeit der neu gegründeten APSTA in Österreich, die sich für Aufklärung und die Zukunft dieser Therapieformen einsetzt.Unterstützt durch higherQIWissenschaftlich fundierte Fotobiomodulation für zuhause!✨ 660nm Rotlicht + 850nm Nahinfrarot kurbeln die Energieproduktion eurer Zellen an.

Climate change, and the associated increase in frequency and severity of heat waves, poses a threat to health. Amongst the most at risk for heat-related emergencies are older adults; age-associated physiologic vulnerabilities, chronic conditions, medications that disrupt thermoregulatory responses, and social determinants all contribute to an increased risk of heat-related illness in this population. When an older adult presents to the emergency department (ED) with vague or subtle symptoms of heat exhaustion or heat stroke, they may be missed by ED practitioners – a concerning thought as these patients are at a greater risk of mortality from heat-related emergencies. Optimal management of these presentations requires clinical recognition and treatment within the ED as well as pre-hospital interventions that can be given by emergency medical services (EMS). GEMCast host Dr. Christina Shenvi is joined by Geoff Comp, Associate Program Director at Creighton University School of Medicine/Valleywise Health Medical Center in Phoenix, Arizona, as the two do an in-depth review of this critical topic. Dr. Comp holds a wilderness medicine fellowship through the Wilderness Medical Society and is an expert in heat-related illness.

Jessica Turton, Accredited Practising Dietitian, joins Dr. Michelle Woolhouse to discuss the use of continuous glucose monitors (CGM) to identify blood glucose dysregulation in non-diabetic patients in our latest podcast. Together, they discuss the role of the CGM in obtaining key, patient-specific information in terms of the blood glucose regulation of the individual, allowing for greater analysis of dietary, environmental and lifestyle influences on blood glucose regulation for the individual. Jessica and Michelle discuss the role stress, sleep and inflammation play in blood glucose regulation and share clinically practical advice on the role of magnesium deficiency in patients with blood glucose imbalances. Discussing the impact of certain exercises and alcohol, Jessica answers some of the many often-asked questions around how to best manage blood glucose levels for the non-diabetic patient.

In this episode, I'm joined by Austin Stout, also known as @austinst8 on Instagram an experienced online coach with a strong background in bodybuilding, body recomposition, functional health, and mentoring.We dive into the world of functional health and discuss how this space, while valuable, can sometimes take things too far — leaving people feeling like they're broken or that something is always “wrong” with their body. Austin and I unpack why many people are skipping over the fundamentals and how mastering the basics often leads to better progress than chasing every lab marker or supplement trend.We also touch on how data collection — from tracking metrics to running excessive lab work — can actually backfire when it becomes obsessive and causes more stress than benefit.If you've ever felt overwhelmed by all the “functional” advice online, this episode will help you zoom out, simplify, and refocus on what truly matters for your health and results.Follow Austin on Instagram: @austinst8Follow me on Instagram: @NicoleFerrierFitnessLearn more about coaching at www.nicoleferrierfitness.com

Sie widerlegen die veraltete DGE-Empfehlung von 0,8 g/kg Protein, die nur ein Minimum sichert. Moderne Studien zeigen: Optimal sind 1,6-2,2 g/kg, bezogen auf das aktuelle Gewicht, um Muskeln zu erhalten – auch beim Abnehmen. Ältere benötigen mind. 1,2-1,5 g/kg gegen Sarkopenie. Tierisches Protein ist oft überlegen (Bioverfügbarkeit, Nährstoffe). Eiweiß sättigt, verhindert den Jo-Jo-Effekt und die "Protein-Hebel-Hypothese" erklärt, warum Proteinmangel zu Überessen führt.

In this episode, I sit down with Mark Faulkner to unpack the science behind creatine's two main forms: monohydrate and HCl. Mark reveals why creatine HCl stands out for its superior absorption and efficiency while clearing up common misconceptions that have limited its reputation to the gym. We explore how creatine fuels more than muscle growth. From immune support and cognitive enhancement to hormonal balance and cellular energy production, this conversation highlights its essential role in both performance and long-term health. Tune in to discover how creatine can become a cornerstone of your wellness strategy—one that helps both men and women move, think, and age better. Key Takeaways: Creatine hydrochloride offers improved solubility and absorption, requiring significantly smaller doses than creatine monohydrate to achieve similar effects. Beyond muscle building, creatine plays a crucial role in various bodily functions, including immune support, brain energy, and hormonal balance. Women, due to lower average muscle mass, may benefit significantly from creatine supplementation, particularly during hormonal transitions. Optimal dosing and timing for creatine can depend on individual goals; it can be effective when taken before exercise to boost energy and endurance. Creatine HCl's molecular efficiency supports cognitive function and overall health, making it not just an athlete's supplement but a vital nutritional aid for everyone. More About Mark Faulkner:   Mark Faulkner is the Founder and President of Vireo Systems and the inventor behind CON-CRĒT®, the #1 absorbed and most widely licensed creatine. With a passion for using science to help people live healthier, more active lives, Mark has founded multiple research-driven companies and holds nine patents. He began his career co-founding a forensic toxicology lab that developed the NFL's steroid testing program and worked with Olympic and NCAA athletes.

“Consumers don't want blasts — they want a relevant, two-way conversation on the channel of their choice.” — Sophie Cheng, SVP Product Marketing, Sinch As retailers and marketers prepare for the 2025 holiday rush, Sophie Cheng, Senior Vice President of Product Marketing at Sinch, says the game has changed. Based on new Black Friday/Cyber Monday survey data from over 3,100 shoppers across ten countries, brands are being asked to do more than sell — they're being asked to converse. Early birds get the buyers Sinch's study shows shoppers want earlier outreach and faster follow-through. More than 37 percent of consumers expect promotions by October 28, while nearly one in five (18.6 percent) want them even sooner. Only 19 percent plan to wait for Cyber Week itself. Once they buy, they want instant reassurance — 93 percent say transactional messages are critical, and 75.8 percent expect order confirmations within five minutes. “Retailers who wait until Thanksgiving week are already late,” Cheng explained. “Customers are planning, price-comparing, and expecting brands to meet them early and personally.” From omnichannel to optimal channel For years, marketers chased the buzzword omnichannel — blanketing every available medium with the same message. Cheng says 2025 is the year of the “optimal channel” instead. “We need to stop blasting,” she said. “Customers want something relevant on the channel of their choice — and they want to be able to talk back.” Email still dominates (73.9 percent prefer it for updates), but 52 percent of consumers now mix channels such as SMS or WhatsApp. Nearly 47 percent say they'd engage with RCS, the new “rich communication service” messaging format that adds buttons, carousels, and payment links right inside native text apps — no downloads required. RCS, Cheng notes, is growing fast in North America and offers verified business profiles, giving shoppers a safer, app-like experience with clear branding and reduced fraud risk. AI meets the holiday shopper AI is also finding its place at the checkout. Nearly 48 percent of respondents believe AI will make holiday shopping easier, and just under half say they trust AI recommendations as much as or more than human ones. “Every customer expects to be treated as an individual,” Cheng said. “We're moving toward segment-of-one marketing — understanding not just demographics but conversation context and history.” That intelligence, she added, helps brands send messages that are personal, not intrusive — a critical distinction now that 72.7 percent still value personalization, but that figure is down roughly 7 points year over year as more shoppers report “creepy” targeting. Lessons for B2B and beyond While Sinch's data centers on retail, Cheng said the same principles apply to B2B, healthcare, and financial services communications. Even regulated sectors can embrace optimal channel thinking — connecting CRM, marketing automation, and conversational AI to provide responsive, compliant outreach without overwhelming audiences. “The key is relevance, consent, and timing,” she said. “Whether you're selling shoes or software, customers want the same thing: a fast, trusted, two-way experience.” What Sinch does Sinch provides the cloud communications infrastructure that enables businesses to deliver secure, scalable, and personalized messaging across email, SMS, WhatsApp, RCS, and voice. The company integrates with CRM and MarTech platforms so enterprises can design intelligent, compliant, and customer-centric journeys — from marketing to verification to support.

View the Show Notes Page for This Episode Become a Member to Receive Exclusive Content Sign Up to Receive Peter's Weekly Newsletter Rhonda Patrick is a scientist, health educator, and host of the FoundMyFitness podcast whose work explores the intersection of nutrition, aging, and disease prevention. In this episode, Rhonda joins Peter for part two of his deep dive on protein, continuing last week's discussion with David Allison and expanding the conversation to include creatine supplementation and sauna use. She discusses why the current RDA for protein is insufficient, how much more is needed to maintain muscle mass and prevent frailty, how activity level and aging influence protein requirements through mechanisms such as anabolic resistance, and how to determine optimal protein intake. The conversation also covers creatine's proven effects on strength, endurance, and performance; its overlooked benefits for cognition and brain health; and the optimal dosing for different populations. Rhonda closes with the science behind sauna use, including its cardiovascular and cognitive benefits, the role of heat shock proteins, and practical guidance on temperature and duration. We discuss: Why the current protein RDA is too low, and why maintaining sufficient amino acid intake is vital for muscle preservation and health [3:30]; The case for raising the protein RDA by at least 50% [9:45]; Anabolic resistance: why inactivity—more than aging—blunts the body's response to protein, and how resistance training restores it [14:00]; How sarcopenia develops, the profound effect of frailty on quality of life, and why it's crucial to build and maintain muscle early [20:00]; Finding the optimal protein dose [25:00]; Why aiming higher is smarter: the case for targeting 2g of protein per kg of body weight in the real world [32:15]; Protein needs for pregnant women and growing adolescents [37:30]; Why higher protein intake is crucial when trying to lose fat while preserving or gaining muscle [39:45]; GLP-1 drugs: protein needs, muscle preservation, dosing strategies, evidence of broader health impacts, and more [43:45]; How overweight individuals should calculate protein needs based on target body weight [50:45]; Unpacking a misunderstood topic: the relationship between protein intake, mTOR activation, and longevity [52:00]; Why it's unclear whether rapamycin is geroprotective in humans, and how misinterpreted animal data have fueled misconceptions about protein or mTOR activation being harmful [1:00:45]; The unmatched longevity benefits of exercise, its synergy with higher protein intake, and Peter's recommended protein intake [1:06:15]; How Rhonda became fascinated with creatine—a well-studied, safe, and effective supplement for improving exercise performance [1:09:00]; Creatine for the brain: how higher doses may enhance cognition under stress and support resilience against aging and disease [1:16:30]; Optimal creatine use: dosing for adults and teens, safe product selection, debunking kidney myths, and more [1:25:45]; Sauna: how deliberate heat exposure mimics exercise, boosts cardiovascular and brain health, and shows promise for improving mood and mental resilience [1:32:15]; The benefits of sauna for reducing risk of dementia, and why hotter may not be better [1:41:15]; The FoundMyFitness podcast [1:45:30]; and More.

What if the real reason you're tired, losing muscle, or struggling to heal has less to do with hormones and everything to do with protein and amino acids? In this episode, I sit down with Angelo Keely from Kion to unpack the science behind muscle preservation, recovery, and aging—and why most women (especially in perimenopause and menopause) are severely under-fueled when it comes to protein. We dive into what happens to your body under stress—from surgery to dieting to GLP-1 medications—and how essential amino acids can change the game for your energy, metabolism, and longevity. You'll learn how to heal faster, lose fat without losing muscle, and protect your body as your hormones shift. We break down how much protein women actually need, the truth about plant vs. animal sources, and why pairing aminos with your protein powder can supercharge results. If you've ever wondered why your energy crashes, your hair won't grow, or your body feels weaker with age, this episode will completely change how you think about protein—and how you use it to feel strong, lean, and alive again.

What if everything you thought you knew about testosterone therapy was wrong? In this episode, I sit down with Shalin Shah, CEO of Marius Pharmaceuticals, to explore a groundbreaking oral testosterone therapy that's changing the way we think about hormones. For decades, we've been told that oral testosterone is dangerous, hard on the liver, risky for the heart, and only meant for men. But what if there's a safer, more effective option that benefits both men and women, protects long-term health, and actually mimics the body's natural rhythm? We dig into the myths that have held testosterone back, why it's been unfairly stigmatized, and how this new therapy could reshape the future of hormone replacement. If you've ever struggled with low energy, brain fog, weight gain, or lack of motivation (or if you've wondered why so many doctors still hesitate to prescribe testosterone) this conversation will open your eyes to what's possible.

In this episode, David joins for his third appearance on The Drive to bring clarity to one of the most contentious topics in modern nutrition—protein. He explores the historical pattern of demonizing macronutrients, the origins and limitations of the RDA for protein, and what the evidence really says about higher protein intake, muscle protein synthesis, and whether concerns about harm are supported by actual data. He also discusses the challenges of conducting rigorous nutrition studies, including the limits of epidemiology and crossover designs, as well as conflicts of interest in nutrition science and why transparency around data, methods, and logic matter more than funding sources. The episode closes with a discussion on processed and ultra-processed foods, the public health challenges of tackling obesity, and whether future solutions may depend more on drugs like GLP-1 agonists or broader societal changes. This is part one of a two-part deep dive on protein, setting the stage for next week's conversation with Rhonda Patrick. We discuss: The cyclical pattern of demonizing different macronutrients in nutrition and why protein has recently become the latest target of controversy [3:15]; The origin and limits of the protein RDA: from survival thresholds to modern optimization [6:30]; Trust vs. trustworthiness: why data, methods, and logic matter more than motives in science [13:30]; The challenges of nutrition science: methodological limits, emotional bias, and the path to honest progress [17:15]; Why the protein RDA is largely inadequate for most people, and the lack of human evidence that high protein intake is harmful [30:30]; Understanding the dose-response curve for muscle protein synthesis as protein intake increases [45:15]; Why nutrition trials are chronically underpowered due to weak economic incentives, and how this skews evidence quality and perceptions of conflict [48:15]; The limitations and biases of nutrition epidemiology, and the potential role of AI-assisted review to improve it [56:15]; The lack of compelling evidence of harm with higher protein intake, and why we should shift away from assuming danger [1:04:15]; Pragmatic targets for protein intake [1:09:30]; Defining processed and ultra-processed foods and whether they are inherently harmful [1:16:15]; The search for a guiding principle of what's healthy to eat: simple heuristics vs. judging foods by their molecular composition [1:25:00]; Why conventional public health interventions for obesity have largely failed [1:38:15]; Two ideas from David for addressing the metabolic health problem in society [1:42:30]; The potential of GLP-1 agonists to play a large role in public health [1:46:30]; and More.

In this episode of the Optimal Body Podcast, Dr. Jen and Dr. Dom—both doctors of physical therapy—address widespread myths and misconceptions surrounding neck pain and posture. They delve into the natural variation in cervical spine curvature, explaining that straightened neck curves and age-related degenerative changes are frequently seen on imaging and are often a normal part of the aging process, not necessarily linked to pain or dysfunction. They stress the importance of not letting fear-based interpretations of MRI or X-ray results dictate treatment decisions. Instead, they advocate for proactive approaches to posture and neck pain such as regular movement, targeted exercise, and education to empower individuals in managing their symptoms. Dr. Jen and Dr. Dom provide practical tips and evidence-based strategies to help find relief from neck pain, improve mobility and posture, and support overall neck health.VivoBarefoot Discount:Support your feet and ankles with VivoBarefoot shoes—with perfect styles for any occasion!

Have you ever been told to test your thyroid levels a few hours after taking your medication? What if I told you that one small timing mistake could completely throw off your results—and lead to the wrong treatment plan? In this episode, I'm breaking down one of the most common (and costly) thyroid testing mistakes: drawing your labs at the wrong time. I explain why testing “at the peak” doesn't make sense scientifically, how it can create false high readings, and what actually happens in your body when you take T3 or NDT medication. You'll hear real examples from my own experiments and patients so you can finally understand what those lab numbers really mean—and when you should be testing for an accurate picture of your thyroid health. If you've been told your labs look “fine” but you still feel tired, foggy, or stuck with symptoms, this episode will make it all click. I'll teach you the timing strategy that can completely change how your medication is adjusted and how you feel every day. Don't miss it!
