Podcasts about optimal diet

Dr. Dale Bredesen, a renowned expert in the field of neurodegenerative diseases, is on a mission to reshape the way we think about aging and brain health. He challenges conventional perceptions about aging, emphasizing the importance of maintaining a "brain span" that matches one's lifespan. Often posing thought-provoking questions about longevity, Dr. Bredesen highlights the undesirability of living to an advanced age if it means suffering from dementia. His work, driven by ongoing research and encapsulated in his latest book, aims to shift the narrative from expecting cognitive decline with age to implementing proactive strategies for preserving brain function.

In a fascinating conversation with Professor Max Nieuwdorp of the Amsterdam Medical Centre, Dr James McIlroy explores groundbreaking ideas and research surrounding the microbiome, hormones, and their profound impact on metabolic diseases. This insightful dialogue uncovers the remarkable potential of faecal microbiota transplant (FMT) and emerging pharmaceutical strategies in tackling obesity, diabetes, and even cancer. Timestamps: 00:00 Introduction to Professor Max and the Podcast 02:04 Max's Journey into Microbiome Research 05:06 The Power of Fecal Microbiota Transplantation (FMT) 08:11 Microbiome's Role in Obesity and Metabolic Health 10:42 Challenges and Future Directions in Microbiome Research 14:47 Defining Obesity and Its Genetic Factors 18:39 FMT and Its Impact on Various Diseases 23:48 Optimal Diet for a Healthy Microbiome 31:07 The Power of Combining Probiotics 31:36 The GLP-1 Story: A Deep Dive 32:30 Mechanisms and Effects of GLP-1 Drugs 37:26 The Role of Microbiome in Weight Management 39:18 Selecting the Best Donor for FMT 42:27 Impact of Diet on Microbiome and Health 50:17 Future of Microbiome Research and Therapies 56:13 The Power of Hormones: Book Insights   The Journey into Microbiome Research Professor Nieuwdorp's interest in the microbiome began serendipitously during his postdoctoral studies at UCSD. There, he encountered revolutionary ideas, particularly through the work of Jeffrey Gordon, which highlighted the significance of the microbiome long before it became widely acknowledged. An unforgettable early success with FMT on a patient with Clostridium difficile infection set the foundation for his enduring commitment to this field. Over the years, Nieuwdorp has been involved in pivotal studies, evolving his understanding of how microbiome therapies could be used in metabolic diseases and beyond. Understanding FMT and Its Role FMT has shown remarkable efficacy, especially in treating infections like Clostridium difficile. The discussion highlights an astounding 90% cure rate demonstrated in early trials, a feat Nieuwdorp describes as "seminal". Nonetheless, expanding this success to metabolic conditions such as obesity and autoimmune diseases remains a promising, yet ongoing, challenge. The Nexus Between Microbiome and Obesity While the connection between the microbiome and obesity remains a complex issue, Nieuwdorp emphasises how the microbiome's role in weight control is likely more significant over the long term—akin to directing an oil tanker—than as a quick fix. The conversation delves into why the body finds it easier to gain weight than to lose it, considering genetic predispositions and evolutionary pressures. This adaptability of the microbiome, combined with dietary habits, may significantly influence how our bodies metabolise and store energy. Revolutionary Treatments on the Horizon Emerging pharmacological treatments such as GLP-1 agonists are causing waves in medicine. These drugs, alongside the potential of next-generation probiotics, promise to reshape how obesity and associated conditions are treated. Intriguingly, research continues to suggest the microbiome might itself produce GLP-1, hinting at a future where therapies target these microbial mechanisms directly. The Path Forward: Microbiome as a Predictive Tool Professor Nieuwdorp envisions a future where microbiome profiling becomes a standard diagnostic and preventative tool. It has the potential to predict disease susceptibility, allowing for earlier and more personalised interventions. In parallel, the continued development of FMT and its derivatives may revolutionise treatments for a range of conditions, from cancer to metabolic disorders. The Educational Perspective: "The Power of Hormones" In addition to his pioneering research, Nieuwdorp shares insights in his book, The Power of Hormones, presenting a layperson's guide to understanding hormones across a lifespan. This book interweaves historical narratives with scientific discussion to elucidate how hormones and the microbiome intersect in influencing daily life. This extensive dialogue with Professor Nieuwdorp is a testament to the potential of microbiome science and the exciting horizon that awaits both researchers and patients. As innovations continue, integrating microbiome knowledge with traditional medical interventions could profoundly change how we understand and treat human health.

Cyrus Khambatta, PhD, emphasizes the importance of managing carbohydrate and fat intake in a diet. He stresses that consuming high carbohydrates and fats simultaneously can cause adverse health effects, highlighting the relationship between our enzymatic machinery and the foods we eat. Cyrus's research has shown that a high-carb diet can work efficiently when fat intake is low and vice versa. He further touches on the Omega-6 to Omega-3 ratio, emphasizing its importance in managing inflammation. The discussion advocates for tailored nutritional advice and supplementation based on individual needs. #CarbohydrateBalance #FatIntake #InflammationControl

What if I told you that it was possible to live to 100 and beyond? On this episode of The Good Mood Show, Matt O'Neill chats with Brett Harmeling of Happy Life Labs to teach us how to biohack our way to more longevity. Brett shares his time-tested tactics for increasing cellular energy, reversing the signs of aging, and unlocking your body's optimal performance.  Tune in to learn simple lifestyle tweaks like grounding, proper nutrition, and mindfulness routines that will have you feeling - and looking - decades younger. Here are some power takeaways from today's conversation:  The importance of grounding The role of minerals to maintain pH balance Strategies for optimal diet, sleep, and movement Daily routines for optimal energy and well-being Gratitude, mindset, and boldness in life and business Aligning yourself with the frequencies of abundance and love [04:27] The Importance of Grounding Brett explains that if we become dysregulated from the Earth's Schumann Resonance frequency, which is like its heartbeat of 7.83 Hertz, we lose a sense of consciousness and connection. He draws a comparison to how plants like flowers, grass and trees can only grow when grounded in the soil. Similarly, he believes we can only grow from where we are grounded. If we are not grounded, then the natural biological systems we are designed to have will not function properly. This can lead to inflammation, aging, and diseases and infections developing within us. [09:56] Minerals, pH Balance, and Disease Prevention Brett states that modern agricultural practices have left us missing fundamental minerals in our bodies, like magnesium, potassium and sulfur. He explains that these minerals are building blocks for anything positive in the body, as they help our body hold a charge. When he refers to charge, he means our body's alkalinity or pH level. Living in a positively balanced pH environment that is rich in minerals makes it almost impossible for diseases like cancer to exist, according to Brett. [13:14] Strategies for an Optimal Diet, Sleep Routine and Movement Plan Brett recommends several strategies for optimizing health and energy levels, including following a diet rich in mineral-dense "real foods" while avoiding highly processed items. He also emphasizes the importance of prioritizing quality sleep by managing elements like light and noise before bedtime. Movement is another key strategy. He recommends a minimum of 10,000 steps per day along with stretching and strength training to generate and maintain energy throughout the day. Notable quotes: [04:47] If we become dysregulated from that Earth's heartbeat, we lose a sense of consciousness and connection. [04:52] [05:01] If we're not grounded, all sorts of natural biological systems that we're designed to have, don't go right. [05:07] [13:14] The easiest diet in the world is eat real food. It's easy, but it's not simple. [13:18] [23:49] You have to be really conscious about what your habits are – because your habits actually end up creating who you are.

I'm joined by Udo Erasmus, founder of the award-winning supplement company Udo's Choice, to learn more about the benefits of essential fatty acids. For over 40 years, Udo has been paving the way for sustainable oils that have health in mind. In our conversation, he shares his inspiring origin story and the journey that led him to transform the edible oil industry. After being poisoned by pesticides in 1980, Udo started looking into the quality of his food, water, and air intake. He gained a deeper understanding of the impact that oil has on mental and physical health, and even discovered that 99% of the population doesn't consume enough Omega 3. He and his team developed the first ever flaxseed oil and have since expanded the range to include optimal oil blends and other products like probiotics and greens. Udo shares simple, tangible ways to improve health outcomes through diet.

There's no "ideal" diet for everyone, but a continuous glucose monitor gives you real-time feedback on the foods that work best for your metabolic health. Author: Casey Means, MD Author: Josh Clemente Author: Arlo Crawford Link to Blog: https://www.levelshealth.com/blog/optimal-diet ARTICLE HIGHLIGHTS Viewing diet through the lens of glucose levels can be a powerful way to personalize food choices and optimize metabolic health. Post-meal spikes in glucose can be uniquely damaging to health and minimizing them should be a dietary priority. Keeping glucose levels steady over time leads to better health outcomes. Having a fasting glucose level in the "normal" range may not be good enough: research shows that a higher fasting glucose level (even in the "normal" range) increases risk of chronic disease. Dietary choices have a strong impact on fasting glucose levels. There is simply no one-size-fits-all metabolic eating plan that works for everyone. Different people can have very different glycemic reactions to the exact same foods, and the metabolic impact of lifestyle choices and other individual factors are difficult to measure with traditional tools. Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) can help. With real-time, objective, actionable information about how food and lifestyle choices affect glucose levels, it's possible to create an individualized diet to support optimal health.

Depression and anxiety disorders are rising, affecting more than fifty-eight million people in the United States alone. Many rely on therapy and medications to alleviate symptoms but often this is not enough. The latest scientific advances in neuroscience and nutrition, along with our understanding of the mind-gut connection, have proven that how and what we eat greatly affects how we feel physically, cognitively, and emotionally. On today’s Broken Brain Podcast, our host Dhru talks to Dr. Drew Ramsey, a psychiatrist, author, farmer, and founder of the Brain Food Clinic in New York City, offering treatment and consultation for depression, anxiety and emotional wellness concerns. He is the author of three books, most recently the award-winning cookbook Eat Complete: The 21 Nutrients that Fuel Brain Power, Boost Weight Loss and Transform Your Health. He lives with his wife and two children in New York City and on their 127-acre organic farm in rural Indiana. Dhru and Dr. Ramsey dive into the twelve most important nutrients for brain health and some of the most insightful studies to back them up. We often hear about omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin D for mood imbalances, so you may be surprised to learn that iron, zinc, choline, and vitamin A are a few others that are crucial. Dr. Ramsey explains the mechanisms behind these essential nutrients and which foods we can find them in. In this episode, we dive into:-Dr. Ramsey’s struggle with anxiety and depression (2:29)-Why iron is important for brain health (13:51) -The importance of omega-3 fats for brain health and tips for incorporating more seafood into your diet (18:07) -Antidepressant Food Scale (AFS) (25:21)-The top food categories to beat depression and anxiety (29:15)-Kale controversy (35:22)-The importance of having variety in your diet (43:54)-The connection between metabolic health and mental health (48:39)-The benefits of choline and vitamin A for brain health (51:05) -How COVID has exacerbated the climbing rates of anxiety and depression (58:50) For more on Dr. Ramsey you can follow him on Instagram @drewramseymd, on Facebook @drewramseymd, on Twitter @drewramseymd, and through his website drewramseymd.com.

Abstract: Orb-web weaving spiders and their relatives spin multiple task-specific fiber types. The unique material properties of each silk type result from differences in amino acid sequence and structure of their component proteins, primarily spidroins (spider fibrous proteins). Amino acid content and gene expression measurements of spider silks suggest some spiders change expression patterns of individual protein components in response to environmental cues. We quantified mRNA abundance of three spidroin encoding genes involved in prey capture in the common house spider, Parasteatoda tepidariorum (Theridiidae), fed different diets. After 10 days of acclimation to the lab on a diet of mealworms, spiders were split into three groups: (1) individuals were immediately dissected, (2) spiders were fed high-energy crickets, or (3) spiders were fed low-energy flies, for 1 month. All spiders gained mass during the acclimation period and cricket-fed spiders continued to gain mass, while fly fed spiders either maintained or lost mass. Using quantitative PCR, we found no significant differences in the absolute or relative abundance of dragline gene transcripts, major ampullate spidroin 1 (MaSp1) and major ampullate spidroin 2 (MaSp2), among groups. In contrast, prey-wrapping minor ampullate spidroin (MiSp) gene transcripts were significantly less abundant in fly-fed than lab-acclimated spiders. However, when measured relative to actin, cricket-fed spiders showed the lowest expression of MiSp. Our results suggest that house spiders are able to maintain silk production, even in the face of a low-quality diet. Copy rights belong to original authors. Visit the link for more info

M21 Wellness Guide Wellness Force Community   Power Quotes From The Show   Developing Your Metabolic Fitness "We're developing a 28-day program which gives people a metabolic awareness and guides them along the process of closing the loop between the actions they're taking and the reactions their body is experiencing using the Continuous Glucose Monitor. This experience is intended to connect us with our own metabolisms and develop that metabolic awareness intuition to point us in the right direction for metabolic fitness. Just like physical fitness, in order for us to become metabolically healthy, we have to think of it in the same way where we're putting in focus, repetition, and effort to achieve our goals." - Josh Clemente     Real-Time Diet Advice "We have had data in our understanding of metabolism for a long time but the problem is it's been population set data. The data is just averaged and all of the information and advice we get is based on the average of a group of people who were studied at some point in the distant future or past. That data doesn't have any connection to you. Now, when you wear your Levels CGM device and you eat a meal, you can see your body telling you something; it's almost like an emotional experience." - Josh Clemente     Why Setbacks Are Meaningful Life Lessons   "It's easy when you're younger to just assume that you know it all or life is going well so you must have it figured out but it takes a series of setbacks to really be able to reflect on life in a meaningful way. With that being said, setbacks are the most important thing in life because they're lessons learned. Over time and through experience, we start to develop wisdom and context for different things. To me, that is the spiritual component in the wellness journey." - Josh Clemente     Links From Today's Show  Sign up for early access to Levels Health Creating an Optimal Diet by Tracking Glucose The Levels Blog Organifi CES FitTech Summit Charles Duhigg 206 Dan Pardi 103 Robb Wolf .

David Hauser (https://amzn.to/2n1iLZB) is a serial entrepreneur who launched several companies before he began high school. David spent his youth working more than one hundred hours a week, until he realized the toll it was taking on his mind, body, and life. After failing to see results from conventional wisdom, he decided to do what he does best: innovate. His unique journey to wellness has helped him realize his life's purpose of empowering others to optimize their own lives by reclaiming their health. David's new book is Unstoppable - 4 Steps to Transform Your Life (https://amzn.to/2n1iLZB) in which he provides an open structure that encourages you to experiment with all the factors that contribute to wellness—from nutrition and exercise, to sleep, yoga, meditation, productivity, and more. In this conversation David talks with Erik about the different experiments and tests he went through to compile his findings for the book.

The Worlds Finest Diet. Episode 4. Getting Started with the 4LeafSurvey. The first stage in your journey towards better nutrition is to establish just where you are on this road already. Usually anyone wanting nutritional advice would attend a consultation with a nutritionist or diet specialist and spend perhaps over an hour completing a vast amount of form filling gathering data on your eating habits, nutritional requirements and so forth, however with the whole plant diet it is possible to gain sufficient information from a very simple questionnaire based on just twelve questions about your normal eating habits. This questionnaire is called the 4LeafSurvey and it is based on an eating concept designed to make it easy for everyone to learn how to eat a near optimal diet. Well, what in fact is an optimal diet for humans? This has been the basis of many thousands of hours of debate discussion and argument over the years but to cut to the chase let's just take a statement from the Cornell Professor who led the most comprehensive study of nutrition ever conducted. He summarizes his conclusions after half a century in a career as a nutritional scientist as follows: “The closer we get to eating a diet of whole, plant-based foods, the better off we will be” Dr.T.Colin Campbell, Ph.D., nutritional biochemist. So the 4LeafSurvey is a guide to where a person is on this journey towards the optimal diet. There are six levels that are based primarily on the percentage of calories derived from whole plant foods. At the bottom we call this a typical Western diet or the SAD Standard American Diet, it is the unhealthy diet and this usually contains a combination of meat, dairy, eggs, fish and more highly processed foods for almost every meal. This is probably the most popular diet style and is associated with a whole series of serious health problems and less than 10% of calories are derived from whole plants. At the next level, which is better than most, the percentage of calories derived from whole plants ranges from 10 to 20%, and those at this level are trying to eat a little healthier diet but they do need a better understanding of what promotes good health. At the one-leaf level we are looking at a diet that consists of between 20 and 40% of calories derived from whole plants. Although this is eating more plants than the majority of folks, people at this level are not consuming enough to provide much protection against disease. At the two-leaf level the percentage of calories derived from whole plants has risen to 40 to 60% and you are now eating 4 to 5 times more whole plants than most. Those at this level are still falling short of ensuring long-term vibrant health. At the three-leaf level 60 to 80% of calories are derived from plants. These people are getting over half the total calories from health promoting whole plant-based food and are experiencing many of the benefits of healthy eating. At the four-leaf level over 80% of calories are derived from whole plants. In the West this represents a very small minority of the population, and these people tend to be trim and enjoy vibrant health, lots of energy, take no medications and rarely have any disease and are likely to live a long and healthy life. So proceeding to complete this questionnaire, you will need to give your best estimate of your daily consumption of just twelve food groups. These are the questions you will need to answer: Fresh fruit. On average, how many daily servings of whole, fresh fruit do you eat? (fruit juice doesn't count as is not the whole plant.) 2.Whole vegetables. On average, how many daily servings of whole vegetables do you eat. Whole grains, legumes, potatoes. On average how many daily servings of these do you eat. Omega-3s. Are you getting all you need from whole plant-based sources like flax seeds, walnuts and chia seeds? Dairy foods. How many days per week do you eat dairy foods like cheese and yoghurt and ice cream? Eggs. How many days per week do either eat eggs or add them as an ingredient when cooking? Cows milk or cream. How many days per week you drink or add these to your food like cereal, coffee, etc? Added sugar. Are you really serious about eliminating added sugar at home and in food products that you buy? White flour. Bread, pasta, cakes & biscuits made with white flour. How would you describe your consumption level of these foods? Sweets and salty snacks. How would you best describe your consumption level of these foods? Meat, poultry and fish. How many of your meals per week include any animal flesh? (beef, pork, lamb, chicken, turkey or fish) Vegetable oil. How many of your meals per week include any oil, like olive, canola or coconut? All oil is 100% fat not a whole plant. So now you know what questions you will be asked to go to the 4LeafSurvey online HEREor complete the 4leafsurvey questionnaire HERE Whichever route you take you will find your 4LeafSurvey score that can range from -44 to +44. The six levels on the 4leafsurvey score system correspond to the following scores. A score of -21 to -44 is the bottom level and the most unhealthy diet.

From keto to nootropics to paleo and so much more, it’s overwhelming just trying to figure out how to build the best diet for yourself. The fact of the matter is that no single diet will solve all your problems. For most of us, a well-rounded and informed approach is key. That’s why I’ve brought someone onto this podcast who is an expert in helping people find the approach that works best for them. Ashleigh Vanhouten is an author, coach, speaker, interviewer of badass women, and the host of two podcasts. Ever since she was young, Ashleigh has been driven by her natural sense of curiosity to learn as much as possible about fitness. She works with Paleo Magazine, where she develops features about people and companies doing incredible things in health and wellness, as well as nutrition research articles, product reviews, and more. Her mission is to support others on their own journey towards creating their own optimal, primally-aligned lifestyle. Ashleigh and I cover a number of great topics today. We discuss what it means to be metabolically flexible and how it can help people lead well-rounded and healthy lifestyles. Ashleigh tells us why a good diet doesn’t have to be complicated but should revolve around simply eating well. We also talk about effective training regimens and why this is different from simply working out. We also cover why strength-training is so very crucial to long-lasting health. Many people can be intimidated by this, but Ashleigh goes over how she approaches the subject with those who are feeling hesitant to start using the heavier weights. We even cover how to maintain your sense of identity among all the images and ideas of what strength-training is “supposed” to look like.  How do you find balance in how you train and diet with your everyday lifestyle? Leave a comment on the episode page!   In this episode Harnessing your innate curiosity to discover where your passions lie What it means to be metabolically flexible and how you can achieve it The difference between training and exercising and why the distinction matters Why you can’t properly train through low-impact exercises alone Why strength-training and femininity are not mutually exclusive concepts Determining a measure of success that is personally meaningful   Quotes “You don’t want to be so reliant on whatever your diet methodology is that you fall apart if you don’t have it.” [9:20] “It is absolutely healthy to have a goal. You need to pick a healthy goal and do it in a healthy way, but always having something on the horizon is a healthy way for your brain to work because we’re goal-oriented creatures.” [18:40] “Every new skill is scary until you know how to do it.” [26:50] “There are no shortcuts, there really are not. We love to think that there are. We love to think that the nootropics and the keto fast and all this stuff is going to sort us out quicker, but it’s just about understanding yourself and doing the hard work and it takes time.” [40:36]   Links Find Ashleigh Vanhouten online Follow Ashleigh on Instagram Society Nine EverybodyFights   Check out the full show notes for this episode here Urban Wellness Clinic Follow Emily & Urban Wellness on Facebook | Twitter | Instagram | YouTube Hypothyroidism Type 2 by Mark Starr, MD(H)  

Nutrition experts have long debated whether there is an optimal diet that humans evolved to eat. Studies show that modern hunter-gatherer groups across the globe generally have phenomenal heart and metabolic health, yet they eat a variety of diets, and tend to avoid the chronic diseases that kill most Americans. On today’s Broken Brain Podcast, our host, Dhru, talks to Anahad O’Connor, a bestselling author and reporter for The New York Times. He joined the paper in 2003 and writes for Science Times – the paper’s weekly science and health section – and the Well blog. Anahad covers nutrition, medicine and chronic disease. He has published a number of groundbreaking investigative stories for the Times, including a series in 2015 that exposed Coca-Cola’s funding of scientific research that sought to downplay the role of sugar-sweetened beverages in the obesity epidemic. In 2018, he and his colleagues won an award from the Association of HealthCare Journalists for Planet Fat, a series that examined the food industry’s role in the spread of global obesity. Anahad is a graduate of Yale University and is a frequent guest on national news programs, such as PBS NewsHour, Good Morning America, and NPR’s All Things Considered. He is also the author of four books.In this episode, Dhru and Anahad talk about what life is like in hunter-gatherer societies, what a typical hunter-gatherer diet looks like, the challenges that are faced in these societies, and if there really is an optimal diet for humans. They talk about time-restricted eating and how when you eat could be more important than what you eat, how food variety causes you to eat more, something known as sensory-specific satiety, and why this is one of the reasons people in hunter-gatherer socieites don’t overeat and become obese. They also discuss another article Anahad wrote in the New York Times, How to Get Strong, and how everyone knows that exercise is one of the best things you can do for your health, but most people ignore one crucial component of it: resistance training and how it can reverse the age-related cellular damage that contributes to sarcopenia and functional impairment. In this episode, we dive into:-Modern hunter-gatherer societies and why they tend to avoid chronic diseases (3:09)-The importance of eating local and seasonal foods (14:56)-Time-restricted eating (17:47)-Why food variety causes your to eat more (24:08) -Nature’s perfect food (31:04)-Anahad’s groundbreaking investigative report that exposed Coca-Cola’s funding of scientific research that sought to downplay the role of sugar-sweetened beverages in the obesity epidemic (41:23)-The impact of lifestyle and social connections on overall health (53:22)-Longevity and resistance training (1:02:07) -How to make resistance training practical (1:11:13)-Learn more about Anahad and his work (1:19:06)For more on Anahad O’Connor, be sure to follow him on Twitter @anahadoconnor, and check out his articles for the New York Times, right here.Sponsor: This episode is sponsored by our partnership with the AquaTru Water Filter.

  How do you measure your fitness? In this week's Insights, I talk about the way I measure my fitness. So if that's something that you're curious about, jump in and have a listen! Visit https://www.bodyshotperformance.com/topic/podcasts/ for the complete show notes of every podcast episode.   Topics Discussed in this Episode: How people tend to view fitness What it takes to get "body beautiful" How I measure my fitness Functional fitness The feeling of being strong Measuring fitness through your energy levels Having endurance Measuring fitness by how much recovery you need   Key Takeaways: Generally, throughout the year, we tend to view fitness in terms of the aesthetic. To get the kind of physique that's "body beautiful" is very difficult. You have to be incredibly disciplined. To achieve that incredibly cut and toned physique isn't just about food. It's about what you do in the gym -- the type of workouts you're doing, how often, and to what degree you're putting those muscles under tension. It's also about how you sleep and how well you look after your mental health; about your energy levels, your digestive health, and your hydration levels; and to what degree you personalise your diet. Functional fitness is less about what goes on in the gym and more about how able you are to go about your daily business and meet a challenge if you need to. Feeling strong really helps your self-esteem. Recovery is just as important as training.   Action Steps: Focus on being functionally fit rather than getting a cut, toned physique. Develop your strength. Make sure you have energy throughout the day. Develop your endurance   Leanne said: "I don't think we should measure fitness in terms of the aesthetic. I think that's massively missing the point." "Probably the most important thing to me is how functionally fit am I. I'll take that any day over a good aesthetic. But with that said, if you are functionally fit, you probably have a pretty aesthetic anyway."   Thanks for listening!   Don't forget to share this episode with anyone you think could benefit from it.

In Functional Medicine, we put a heavy emphasis on gut health. We know that a strong gut is not just essential for digesting food and absorbing nutrients, but that it plays a vital role in the immune system and affects the health of the entire body. On today’s Broken Brain Podcast, our host, Dhru, talks to Dr. Marvin Singh, an integrative gastroenterologist. Dr. Singh graduated from the Virginia Commonwealth University School of Medicine, and completed his residency training in internal medicine at the University of Michigan Health System, followed by a fellowship training in Gastroenterology at Scripps Clinic and Green Hospital. Dr. Singh was also trained by Dr. Andrew Weil, a pioneer in the field of integrative medicine, at the University of Arizona Center for Integrative Medicine. Dr. Singh uses cutting-edge tests and personally designed protocols to develop a truly individualized plan for his patients based on their genetics, microbiome, metabolism, and lifestyle.In this episode, Dhru and Dr. Singh talk about the cutting edge research of DNA methylation PhenoAge, which can predict things like aging, inflammation, and heart disease. They discuss how changes in the gut microbiome can impact gene expression, how our microbiome influences the dietary choices we make, and how our gut health can have a significant effect on healthy aging. They also talk about the implications of diet and the gut microbiome in neuroinflammatory and neurodegenerative disease. In this episode, we dive into:-How DNA methylation can predict age and age-related outcomes (2:24)-How our gut microbiome influences our food choices (9:35)-The gut-brain connection (13:22)-The gut microbiome and neurodegenerative diseases (17:35)-Dr. Singh’s personal health journey (21:51)-Why personalization is so important when it comes to our gut health (43:29)-Food sensitivity testing (46:56)-Gut microbiome testing (54:05)-Probiotics (59:49)-How exercise impacts our gut health (1:07:12)-Prebiotics (1:09:59)-Digestive enzymes (1:13:05)-Fecal transplants (1:20:33)-Colon hydrotherapy (1:26:39)-How social connections impact our health (1:32:19)-Learn more about Dr. Singh and his work (1:38:16)For more on Dr. Marvin Singh, be sure to follow him on Instagram @DrMarvinSingh, on Facebook @DrMarvinSingh, and on Twitter @DrMarvinSingh.

Have you ever experienced being fatigued and weak but could not understand why? In this week’s Insights episodes, I talked about the early signs of burnout aka the ‘mystery sickness’ and how to recover and turn it around. Visit https://www.bodyshotperformance.com/topic/podcasts/ for the complete show notes of every podcast episode. Topics Discussed in this Episode: The early signs of burnout that your body sends How to recover from the symptoms of burnout Key Takeaways: What happened was, Monday morning, I woke up and felt very fatigued and my limbs were heavy. I had a slight aversion to light, a slight headache, and real apathy. I did not want to get out of bed, felt I was pressed down into the mattress. I had no appetite and spent the rest of the day in bed. It was a very, very odd feeling and it lasted for about three days. On the fourth day, I went out. I had to sit down a lot. I was really weak and very low in energy. That was the first time it happened. I could not understand what was going on. In hindsight, it was because I was doing a lot. I just looked at my schedule and thought, ‘What am I going to take out from this and do less of?’, because it was very clear that I had been doing too much All of that requires discipline. It requires acceptance that we are not supermen/superwomen. That is not relatable and not sustainable. I started to train more intelligently and work intelligently as well, delegate when I could, outsource when I could. Action Steps: Do less but with more intention. Remove distractions. Outsource and learn to delegate to have more focus on the things you need to do by yourself. Leanne said: “If you are experiencing any of those types of symptoms, please take note. Take a step back. Reevaluate what you are doing, and put the brakes on, because it is actually vital if you do so.” Links to things mentioned in the show: Rise and Shine: Recovery from Burnout and Get Back to Your Best The DNA Test for Optimal Diet and Fitness More from Leanne Spencer: Bodyshot Performance Bodyshot Performance Limited Facebook page Remove the Guesswork BOOK by Leanne SpencerLeanne’s Email

We constantly see new diets being touted. What does the research tell us about which is best?

Though the field of research around the gut microbiome is brand new, the latest understandings are changing our definition of the optimal human diet. We are also learning how factors like activity, stress and sleep impact the microbiome. So, what foods promote the growth of beneficial strains of bacteria? And how can we make better lifestyle choices that will increase diversity in the microbiome—and improve our health overall? Medical biophysicist Dr. Sarah Ballantyne, PhD, is the creator of The Paleo Mom, an award-winning online resource that distills the science behind how diet and lifestyle impact health. She also serves as the co-host of the syndicated Paleo View Podcast and architect of the premier Autoimmune Protocol Lecture Series. Sarah has a background in academic research around critical care medicine, gene therapy and cell biology, and she is the author of a number of bestselling books on the nutritional approach to optimal health. Sarah’s path to becoming an internationally-recognized health advocate was informed by own journey, and she is on a mission to tackle public health at the level of scientific literacy. Today, Sarah offers insight around gut health, explaining the connection between a leaky gut and a lack of diversity in the microbiome. She discusses how to modify your diet to improve gut health and the science behind the lifestyle factors that impact the microbiome. Sarah also shares advice on changing your diet gradually to prevent GI issues, leveraging food-based probiotics and working with a functional medical practitioner.

Is there really a perfect diet? In today's world of biohacking and data tracking it is easy to get overwhelmed with too many decisions. That's why I had my own personal health advisor Dr. Anthony Balduzzi come back to talk about eating to optimize longevity, physique, performances, and happiness. This is one you won't want to miss if you need some tips you can apply to increase your own performance in life.

Is there really a perfect diet?.. The post The Optimal Diet for Entrepreneurs: How To Live Past 100 and Have Abs The Whole Way w/ Dr. Anthony Balduzzi appeared first on Freedom Fast Lane.

For the last 20 years the focus of nutritional advice has been to reduce total fat intake and consume large amounts of carbohydrate. However, this advice is inconsistent with many lines of evidence indicating that unsaturated fats have beneficial metabolic effects and reduce risk of coronary heart disease. More recent evidence has also shown that the large majority of carbohydrates in current industrial diets, consisting of refined starches and sugars, have adverse metabolic effects and increase risks of obesity, heart disease and type 2 diabetes. Thus, in what appears to be an optimal diet, most calories would come from a balance of whole grains and plant oils, proteins would be provided by a mix of beans, nuts, fish, eggs, and poultry, and the remaining nutritional needs would be filled by plenty of vegetables and a few fruits. Important considerations include the role of dairy products, the interrelationships with physical activity and genetic variations, the implications of our food choices on environmental sustainability, and how we move from today’s pathological diet to a more optimal way of eating.

Maria is a health and wellness expert and author of several books. She was always active in sports, even when she was a kid, but was still always on the heavy side. She thought it must’ve just been how her body’s was meant to be. It wasn’t until she studied science and nutrition that she began questioning the “standard” diet that promotes dietary grains and milk. She has since leaned towards a low-carb diet and now a ketogenic diet from which her books were now based on. Today Maria talks about how the ketogenic diet changed her life, her tips for people who want to start with a ketogenic diet, her thoughts on the vilification of fat, and how ice cold water can help boost mitochondrial health.   " People underestimate the power of just being outside.” Maria Emmerich   In this episode, you’ll learn: In a ketogenic diet, always count total carb and not net. She calls the ketogenic diet the happy diet due to how it improves the overall mood of the person. Sugar is inflammatory and complex carbs, what many call “healthy carbs”, become sugar in your blood stream. To lower inflammation, lower sugar intake even those from complex carbs. You can't store protein in your body. Too much will turn into sugar too especially if you're not active. Ketogenic diet will have you losing water weight and electrolytes. When you’re depressed or moody, sometimes you just have low electrolytes. One quick way to remedy that is to drink water with salt but don’t make it too salty. Maria says a when it comes to macros for losing weight, your diet should be around 5% carbs, 20% protein, and 75% fat – healthy saturated fats. This will trigger ketosis. The best cure for adrenal fatigue is 10 hours of sleep. The ketogenic diet will keep your blood sugar levels stable. No spiking, no crashing. No crashing means no sudden hunger. Ketones will get you a natural high which is like sugar but won't crash you. Mitochondria are mostly made up of water cells which you can negatively and positively charge. She advocates “EZ” water therapy which involves drinking ice cold water first thing in the morning.   Key Takeaways: People would be healthier if their practitioners just asked them what they were eating. Pick new goals all the time, don't do everything overnight.   Connect with Maria Emmerich: Maria Mind Body Health Twitter Facebook Instagram Mentioned in this episode: The Fourth Phase of the Water book by Gerald H.

You can still glean useful info and make realistic inferences from genetic research by examining the regional and ethnic distribution of various alleles (i.e. gene variations) and matching them against your own ancestry. Let's take a look at some of the alleles for which we have the most data. (This Mark's Daily Apple article was written by Mark Sisson, and is narrated by Tina Leaman)

Working towards your optimal diet with advice from Mike Arnstein and Sid Garza-Hillman.

For the last 20 years the focus of nutritional advice has been to reduce total fat intake and consume large amounts of carbohydrate. However, this advice is inconsistent with many lines of evidence indicating that unsaturated fats have beneficial metabolic effects and reduce risk of coronary heart disease. More recent evidence has also shown that the large majority of carbohydrates in current industrial diets, consisting of refined starches and sugars, have adverse metabolic effects and increase risks of obesity, heart disease and type 2 diabetes. Thus, in what appears to be an optimal diet, most calories would come from a balance of whole grains and plant oils, proteins would be provided by a mix of beans, nuts, fish, eggs, and poultry, and the remaining nutritional needs would be filled by plenty of vegetables and a few fruits. Important considerations include the role of dairy products, the interrelationships with physical activity and genetic variations, the implications of our food choices on environmental sustainability, and how we move from today's pathological diet to a more optimal way of eating.

Is the Paleolithic Diet the Optimal Diet for the 21st Century World? Kirk Hamilton interviews Dr. Loren Cordain on the pros and cons of the Paleo Diet (hunter-gatherer diet) and its potential benefit on chronic disease prevention and reversal, and its practicality in the modern world. Points of discussion are the health aspects of grains (pro & con), the acid load of foods, in particular meats and grains, and what is more beneficial for public health - emulating the diets of hunter gatherer populations or long-living Blue Zone populations. Dr Cordain received his Ph.D. in Health & Physical Education from the University of Utah in 1981, and has been a Professor in the Department of Health and Exercise Science at Colorado State University since 1982. He is author of the best selling books The Paleo Diet, The Paleo Diet for Athletes and The Dietary Cure for Acne. Download or Open:
