The incredible world of weight loss supplements... let's dive in and learn how they can be game-changers for those of us navigating hypothyroidism or Hashimoto's. This episode, I'm zooming in on safe, effective options that won't leave your heart racing or cause you more harm than good. I'm talking about the unsung heroes like T2 (3,5-diiodo-l-thyronine) and L-tyrosine, which can boost your metabolism and even help with fat burning while keeping your muscle mass intact. These alternatives set themselves apart from the risky, old-school stimulants like ephedra and caffeine, making your weight loss journey not just manageable but healthier. You see, weight loss with thyroid issues is a whole different ballgame. I'm spilling all the details on supplements like coleus forskohlii and Guggul, which not only support thyroid function but also enhance fat metabolism and offer other fantastic benefits—think better insulin resistance, lipid profiles, and even some mood-boosting effects. And yes, these finds are already star players in my products, “Thyroid Fixxr” and “Metabolism Fixxr,” designed to help you unlock that superior fat-burning potential. Listen in and let's unravel the magic behind these supplements and how they might just be the missing piece in your wellness toolkit.

In this episode, we are joined by Elie Hassenfeld, Co-Founder and CEO of GiveWell to discuss how data, transparency, and moral trade-offs can guide charitable giving with maximum impact. Elie brings his background in finance and philosophy to the world of global philanthropy—explaining how GiveWell rigorously evaluates programs to determine which ones save or improve lives most effectively. We explore how GiveWell assesses cost-effectiveness, why transparency is a core organizational value, and how moral weights shape grantmaking priorities. Elie also opens up about the challenges of running a high-stakes nonprofit that directs nearly $400 million annually, why global health interventions are often overlooked by traditional donors, and how they navigate philosophical dilemmas like saving a life versus doubling someone's income. This conversation blends finance, ethics, and effective altruism into a compelling framework for anyone who wants to do the most good with their giving.   Key Points From This Episode:   (0:01:00) Why charitable giving is a financial decision—and why it deserves evidence-based thinking. (0:02:20) GiveWell's mission: Using rigorous research to direct donor funds where they'll do the most good. (0:03:44) How Elie's frustration with vague charity claims led him to co-found GiveWell in 2007. (0:08:35) The scope of impact: GiveWell's 80-person team now directs ~$395M annually. (0:10:43) The weight of responsibility: Why directing hundreds of millions of dollars is both gratifying and stressful. (0:12:22) Radical transparency: Publishing internal debates and mistakes as a matter of principle. (0:13:06) GiveWell's core values: Maximize impact, transparency, truth-seeking, and deep consideration. (0:16:25) How GiveWell differs from traditional charity evaluators (like those focused on overhead ratios). (0:18:15) The business model: GiveWell is a nonprofit funded by donors—no cut taken from giving funds. (0:21:20) Who gives: A mix of finance and tech professionals across the U.S., Canada, and the UK. (0:22:16) EA and SBF: How distancing from the effective altruism label insulated GiveWell from the fallout. (0:24:04) GiveWell's four criteria for evaluating programs: Evidence, cost-effectiveness, room for more funding, and transparency. (0:29:45) How GiveWell identifies top charities—through academic research, NGO outreach, and sector immersion. (0:31:07) Current top charities: Against Malaria Foundation, Malaria Consortium, Helen Keller Intl, and New Incentives. (0:34:31) Why GiveWell shifted to global poverty after early comparisons showed massive cost-effectiveness differences. (0:39:24) Why the cost to save a life is higher than people think—nets don't reach everyone, and malaria risk is probabilistic. (0:43:27) How GiveWell measures “good”: lives saved, health improved, income increased—standardized into one metric. (0:46:47) Moral weights matter: Why GiveWell equates saving a life with doubling 100 families' income. (0:50:37) Where moral weights come from: surveys, literature, and direct community input from Kenya and Ghana. (0:53:44) Letting donors tweak the model: Tools exist to adjust for your personal moral priorities. (0:54:57) Do top charities cannibalize each other's impact? (Spoiler: Not really.) (0:56:20) Capacity assessment: How GiveWell determines how much money an organization can productively absorb. (1:00:15) Why even on-the-ground observations (like chlorine testing methods) shape their assessments. (1:01:27) Why evidence matters—especially when trying to help people you'll never meet. (1:03:55) Elie's personal definition of success: Deep relationships, personal growth, and demonstrable impact.

Today, they reach back through time to help you release everything that no longer serves your highest expression. This activation works because your shadows aren't obstacles to overcome but aspects of yourself requiring integration and healing. Your optimal future self has already completed this shadow work successfully and now shares their wisdom to accelerate your transformation. By the end of our time together, you will have cleared the energetic path for your optimal self to express fully through your life. 

Angela presents a bitesized, compelling discussion with Dr. Gabrielle Lyon about the transformative journey through perimenopause and menopause. They explore the critical importance of muscle health and the role of protein in maintaining vitality as women age. Dr. Lyon emphasises that decline is not inevitable and shares actionable insights on nutrition and exercise that can empower women to take control of their health KEY TAKEAWAYS: Muscle Health is Crucial: Building and maintaining skeletal muscle is essential for women, especially as they approach menopause Nutrition Matters: A significant focus should be placed on dietary protein intake. The recommendation is to aim for about one gram of protein per pound of ideal body weight to support muscle health Start Early or Start Now: It's important to begin focusing on muscle health and exercise early in life, but it's never too late to start. The best time to begin is today, regardless of past habits. Addressing Menopausal Changes: Women going through perimenopause and menopause may experience changes in body composition, including increased visceral fat and loss of muscle mass TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: [00:01:26] Muscle health and longevity. [00:05:12] Optimal protein intake for health. [00:10:15] Protein needs for menopausal women. [00:11:45] Hormonal therapy and muscle loss.

Most people who try to lose weight and keep it off end up failing. But what if the problem isn't you - it's the diet? In this episode, we cut through the noise of weight loss fads to explore a science-backed method that's helped countless people make real, sustainable changes. It's called flexible dieting, and it's built around the idea that personalised macronutrient targets, food quality, and consistency matter more than restrictive rules or trendy plans. Our guest is Alan Aragon, a leading expert in fitness nutrition who's spent over 30 years coaching clients and publishing research that's reshaped how the industry thinks about fat loss. Alongside Alan is Professor Sarah Berry, ZOE's Chief Scientist, who brings insight from her studies on metabolism and how our bodies respond to food. Together, they unpack what actually works for long-term fat loss — and how you can get started with a realistic, effective approach that doesn't require cutting out the foods you love. Unwrap the truth about your food

In this episode, we break down a fascinating new study comparing three training styles — Strength & Conditioning, CrossFit, and HYBRID training — to see which one delivers the best results. The kicker? All groups did the same workouts in different formats. The results might surprise you.We also dig into why training age matters, the most overlooked factor in getting results, and why chasing two goals at once can backfire. From physique burnout to the optimal male body fat percentage, this one covers it all.And then… we tackle CrossFit's bold new campaign: F the Quick Fix. Is it a marketing win, a mistake, or both? We share our takes on the message, the backlash, and what it means for the fitness industry.Timestamps:0:00 A study where all groups did the same workouts but different formats2:17 Exercise science… what's realistic?3:35 So here's what happened7:20 The difference between the test groups9:00 HYBRID group improved overall fitness more than CrossFitters10:10 This was a very well-done study10:46 Training age plays a huge factor here12:03 Areas of improvement for this study12:55 Why this all matters15:41 The most underestimated part of training — enjoyment17:13 Chase two chickens, catch none?

Impulsiv och känslostyrd. Tonåringars hjärnor ses ofta som outvecklade vuxenhjärnor. Men de har unika förmågor som är optimala för just tonåringar. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Programmet sändes första gången 25/2 2025. Vi pratar ofta om unga människors hjärnor i negativa termer, som ofärdiga varianter av vuxenhjärnor. Men det handlar om helt normal utveckling, och deras hjärnor är ibland bättre anpassade för just en ung människas liv, än vad vuxnas hjärnor är.Det säger BJ Casey, professor i neurovetenskap vid Columbia University i New York, som forskat om unga hjärnor i decennier.I en tid när vi pratar mycket om bristerna och omognaden i unga människors hjärnor vill hon lyfta fram att det också finns en hel del positivt.Reporter: Lena Nordlundlena.nordlund@sverigesradio.seProducent: Lars Broströmlars.brostrom@sverigesradio.se

Chuck Lieberman wouldn't rule out the possibility of a 50 basis point rate cut this year. He says this could “make up for lost ground” after the last employment report changed the market's understanding of the economy sharply. However, he expects the market to continue to make new highs into the end of the year. “This is almost an optimal environment for stocks,” he adds. He likes regional banks and energy pipeline companies.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Now I want you to understand something profound about the nature of reality. In this very moment, as you sit here with your eyes closed, infinite versions of your life exist simultaneously across parallel timelines. There's a timeline where you're living your absolute dream life. There's a timeline where every wish has been fulfilled, where every limitation has been transcended, where you're expressing your highest potential in every area of existence. Your optimal timeline isn't something you need to create or build from scratch. It already exists as a complete, fully formed reality. Right now, a version of you is living in perfect health, surrounded by authentic love, experiencing magnificent prosperity, and expressing your deepest gifts with complete freedom and joy. This is quantum reality operating according to the principles we've been discussing. Our intention today is not to imagine what might be possible, but to discover and connect with what already is. We're going to scan the infinite field of possibility until we locate your optimal timeline, and then we're going to attune your consciousness to its frequency.
