For serious gamefowl breeders and poultry keepers, molt isn't just a downtime — it's a genetic checkpoint and a vital phase that shapes your birds' future health, performance, and breeding value. Yet many breeders unknowingly sabotage this crucial period with one common misstep: dropping protein and cutting weight too aggressively. In this episode, we break down: What actually happens during the molt — physically, nutritionally, and behaviorally The risks of underfeeding fit birds during feather regrowth Why dropping protein and forcing weight loss can lead to brittle feathers, extended molt duration, weakened immunity, and long-term performance decline Smart, supportive strategies to help your birds recover fast and come back stronger How proper molt management preserves your bloodline's resilience, immune strength, and conditioning foundation Whether you're aiming to maintain show-quality birds or prepare top-performing gamefowl for next season, understanding how to feed, condition, and support your flock during molt is non-negotiable. This isn't just a feeding issue — it's a breeding strategy. Key Takeaway: Don't starve your birds to "reset" them — support them to rebuild stronger. Feed smart. Condition wisely. Breed for resilience. Let the molt reveal the strength of your line — not the weaknesses of your management. Make sure to follow and watch our future shows. We plan to dive deep into the world of breeding and genetics, nutrition and health management, and provide essential tips, so you too can create high quality strains. Whether you're breeding domestic chickens, gamefowl, or various types of livestock, this show is for you. Join us on Bred to Perfection Live, Friday's at 6pm PST or 9pm EST on YouTube, as we discuss the benefits of creating your own strain. See ya there!

In this Mini Mikkipedia episode, Mikki dives into new research from Dr. Fuchs and Professor Luc van Loon on the critical role of protein and activity in preserving muscle during hospitalization. She explains just how quickly muscle mass can decline with bed rest or critical illness, why standard hospital meals fall short nutritionally, and how inadequate protein and energy intake accelerate muscle loss. Mikki outlines practical strategies—from protein targets and essential amino acids to simple activity or electrical stimulation—to help mitigate muscle wasting. She also highlights the importance of “prehabilitation” before elective surgery. Whether you're an athlete, a caregiver, or someone preparing for surgery, this episode offers valuable insights on protecting strength when it matters most.✨ Episode Highlights:Why muscle loss in hospital can reach 3% per day in ICU patientsThe role of protein intake (1.2–1.5 g/kg+) in slowing muscle atrophyHow energy balance influences anabolic resistance and recoveryPractical strategies: protein powders, amino acids, and even bedside activityThe case for prehabilitation before elective surgeryhttps://journals.lww.com/co-clinicalnutrition/fulltext/9900/muscle_preservation_during_hospitalization__energy.233.aspx Contact Mikki:https://mikkiwilliden.com/https://www.facebook.com/mikkiwillidennutritionhttps://www.instagram.com/mikkiwilliden/https://linktr.ee/mikkiwillidenSave 20% on all Nuzest Products WORLDWIDE with the code MIKKI at www.nuzest.co.nz, www.nuzest.com.au or www.nuzest.comCurranz supplement: MIKKI saves you 25% at www.curranz.co.nz or www.curranz.co.uk off your first order
August 19th, 2025 was a great day for neuroscience. Why, you may ask? Because a paper published on Nature Aging discussed a breakthrough in being able to pinpoint a specific iron-associated protein in the Hippocampus related to age-related cognitive impairment. While numerous Press Release articles have made this sound like the cure to aging, this is not the case. Dr. Jonathan Karp and student producer Kaya Basatemur break this paper down into the steps these scientists took, and the logic behind their experiments and findings to determine if the PR articles have it right; is this truly the cure to aging, or is the media over exaggerating and generalizing specific findings? Listen in to find out in the newest episode of Health 411!
It used to be that only fitness buffs and bodybuilders thought about how much protein they were getting. But now, everybody seems to be looking for more of it in their diet, and just about every food product has added protein, from pancakes to popcorn. But how much protein do we really need?

Protein, protein, protein is almost all you hear out there in the world of health, fitness, and sickness these days, and the funny thing is, nothing much about protein has really changed for decades. Protein is still heralded as the end-all, be-all of human life's existence. But why? The truth is, science and research has yet to show evidence in any way that proves the protein that we consume has a valid function. Has there ever been a camera installed in someone's stomach or bloodstream that sees protein perform duties? No, there hasn't and never will be. To this day, science still doesn't know what happens to food as it enters the stomach. There are theories, but they are just that—theories. Meanwhile, if someone just consumes gobs and gobs of straight protein that has been separated from the carbohydrates, fats and other nutrients, a person would simply atrophy and starve to death eating just extracted protein. In this episode, get ready to be de-brainwashed from the planted and corrupted protein law that has been institutionalized for almost a century, and learn how to break free and heal. In this episode… Discover how the protein myth and law was placed in the human consciousness to allow a door to be opened years down the road that would allow money to be made off of protein-based pharmaceuticals. Discover why breast milk contains extremely little protein. Find out how hospitals are filled with sick and dying people who have had more than enough protein in their lifetime. Uncover the truth behind a historical experiment where participants were fed only isolated protein without carbohydrates or fats, and what that experiment resulted in. Learn how protein does not stop pathogens from causing harm. Learn how protein is not the end-all, be-all when it comes to healing a chronic illness. See how dentists worldwide are drilling people's teeth who eat plenty of protein in their diet. Discover the critical nutrients that are responsible for building muscle and protein isn't one of them. Uncover how the fitness, medical, and nutrition industries have all been built on the protein myth, keeping populations misinformed for nearly a century. Find out the truth about how eating isolated protein only by itself can cause severe starvation and even death. Discover how the obsession with protein keeps people sick and dependent on pharmaceuticals, serving the interests of medical and industrial systems rather than human health. All this and more, tune in and don't miss out on this important episode. You can revisit this episode anytime you need it. For more information visit www.medicalmedium.com

If you've ever doubted your ability to make muscle mass and strength gains after menopause, this episode is for you. It's not too late to gain strength and lean muscle mass can be gained at any age—even after 85. Based on a 2024 Study on Resistance Training in Older Adults by Int. Journal of Sports Nutrition & Exercise Metabolism, here's what happened and the results: Participants: 17 adults aged 65–75. 12 adults aged 85+. Program: Duration: 12 weeks, 3x per week Structure: Warm-up 4 lower body sets 3 upper body exercises (2 sets each) Stretching Results: Quadriceps strength increased in all participants 65–75 group: 1–18% 85+ group: 6–21% 1RM leg extension increased in all participants 65–75 group: 38% ± 20% 85+ group: 46% ± 14% Improvements were seen in lean mass, strength and functional activities like chair stands, gait speed, timed up-and-go. Defining Muscle Mass and Strength Gains After Menopause Exercise intensity is based on decreasing repetitions to muscular fatigue. Exercise volume is based on the number of sets. Considerations for Exercise Volume in Women in Menopause Volume = sets x reps x weight or total weekly workload. Start small (1–2 sets, 2x per week if inactive). Build to 3x only once consistent. Balance recovery: not just alternating workout/rest days, but also factoring in life stress. Menopausal women may need 48–72 hours between resistance sessions, per muscle group. For women post menopause; increasing the number of days per week to reach greater exercise volume can be problematic because of the need for balance with recovery days. We don't mean 1 day work, 1 day rest. It can mean 1 day of high intensity work and 2 or 3 days light or moderate exercise for another type for recovery. Start Your Strength Gains After Menopause The beginning phases of exercise should last longer for a woman starting in her 60s or 70s. Muscle, ligaments and tendons collectively are not as resilient at 60 as they were at 20. Since most early improvements are due to neural adaptations and heavier weights don't accelerate that, progress at a pace so you know you've exercised muscles but aren't sore or uncomfortable. You're in this for life. There's time. The adaptive response to resistance training is preserved even in males and females over 85. Protein & Resistance Training Two drivers of muscle protein synthesis: Resistance Training Adequate Protein. For metabolic health: ~100g/day (for 160 lb woman). For optimal fitness: closer to 160g/day. Protein recommendation for a 160lb adult is 60 grams of protein day. Only 46% of older adults get that. 5-Step Protein & Resistance Training Process: Track your current protein intake. Compare with recommendations based on age, weight, activity. Identify gaps without judgment. Close the gap gradually. Set short-term goals, especially starting with breakfast protein. Muscle Mass and Strength Gains After Menopause are Dependent On… Relative Strength Training Power decreased significantly after the age of 50 years and was negatively and strongly associated with mobility limitations. Mobility & Longevity Connection Strength must be paired with mobility to prevent limitations. Key focus areas: ankles, hips, upper back. Loss of mobility = harder to regain later. More… much more on mobility in upcoming posts. References: Journal of Cachexia Sarcopenia and Muscle. 2021, PMID: 34216098. Journal of Nutrition, Health and Aging. 2019, PMID: 30932132.

Chronic activation often comes with trade-offs such as muscle loss, hormonal changes, and nutrient deficiencies. Robert Sikes and I talk about how the Sugar Diet may leverage FGF-21 but that there are ways to leverage FGF-21 without using sugar. Robert Sikes is the founder of Keto Brick. He has been following a ketogenic lifestyle for over a decade and turned professional in bodybuilding in 2023. Through his work, Robert coaches athletes and everyday people to optimize performance, build muscle, and achieve sustainable health without extreme dieting or performance-enhancing drugs.In this episode, I sit down with Robert Sikes (aka Keto Savage) to unpack his latest self-experiment: eating 4,000 calories per day with 400g of fat and minimal protein, and doubling his testosterone in just 2 weeks.We discuss the following: Why the sugar diet became popularRobert's diet experimentAre some not built for low carb?Recommended protein macrosWhat is VO2 max testingHow long to get fat adaptedRobert's keto bodybuilding programOptimal testosterone rangeLessons from 11 years of ketoRobert's cacao sourcing journeyWhere to find Robert SikesJudy's pull-up journey (bonus)_____EPISODE RESOURCESInstagramKeto BrickKeto SavageKeto BodybuildingNatural States SavagesSavage Perspective PodcastNwJ Interview with Robert Sikes Part 1NwJ Interview with Robert Sikes Part 2NwJ Interview with Robert Sikes Part 3NwJ Interview with Robert Sikes Part 4EFH Personalized Health Plan_____WEEKLY NEWSLETTER

In this episode of Beyond Limits, Olivia sits down with Alisa DiFruscia—Naturopathic Doctor, Certified Personal Trainer, Yoga Instructor, German New Medicine Teacher, and the Founder of For Her Kind™.Alisa created For Her Kind after realizing the traditional clinic model wasn't giving women the consistent guidance they needed to succeed. Drawing on her background in naturopathic medicine, strength training, and holistic healing, she built a coaching space designed to cut through the noise of the wellness industry and show women they are not “broken.” Her evidence-based programs help women build confidence, strength, and lasting results that go far beyond a number on the scale.Alisa opens up about her own fitness evolution (spoiler: she was once doing everything wrong), why strength training is non-negotiable for women, and how to fuel your body without fear. She also dives into her work with German Healing Knowledge, reframing symptoms as meaningful feedback instead of something to fear.From busting the Pilates-only myth to revealing why you can't actually “catch a cold,” Alisa's message is both radically practical and deeply freeing.Key Takeaways

BUFFALO, NY — August 27, 2025 — A new #research paper was #published in Volume 17, Issue 7 of Aging (Aging-US) on July 24, 2025, titled “RNA-binding protein AUF1 suppresses cellular senescence and glycolysis by targeting PDP2 and PGAM1 mRNAs.” In this study, Hyejin Mun, Chang Hoon Shin, Mercy Kim, Jeong Ho Chang, and Je-Hyun Yoon from the University of Oklahoma and Kyungpook National University investigated how changes in cellular metabolism contribute to aging. Their findings offer potential targets for therapies aimed at slowing or reducing the effects of aging. As cells age, they often lose their ability to divide and begin releasing harmful signals that damage nearby tissues. This process, called cellular senescence, is linked to many age-related diseases. A key feature of senescent cells is their altered metabolism, where they use more glucose and oxygen, even when oxygen levels are low. This leads to the production of inflammatory substances and fatty acids, which can accelerate tissue damage. The study examined how these metabolic changes are controlled at the molecular level. Researchers found that AUF1, a protein that binds to RNA, normally helps prevent aging by breaking down two enzymes involved in glucose metabolism: PGAM1 and PDP2. When AUF1 is missing or inactive, these enzymes build up. This causes the cell to produce more energy and inflammatory molecules, which are common features of senescent cells. “Our high throughput profiling of mRNAs and proteins from Human Diploid Fibroblasts (HDFs) revealed that the expression of pyruvate metabolic enzymes is inhibited by the anti-senescent RNA-binding protein (RBP) AUF1 (AU-binding Factor 1).” The team also identified another protein, MST1, which becomes active during cellular stress and aging. MST1 modifies AUF1 in a way that stops it from doing its protective job. As a result, PGAM1 and PDP2 accumulate, leading to faster aging of the cell. Experiments using human fibroblast cells and mouse models confirmed that higher levels of these enzymes are linked to stronger signs of cellular aging. These findings improve our understanding of how metabolism affects the aging process. They highlight the MST1-AUF1-PDP2/PGAM1 pathway as a key factor in the metabolic shift seen in aging cells. Since these enzymes and proteins are already known to be involved in other diseases, existing or future therapies might be used to block this pathway and reduce the effects of aging. This study offers a new direction for senotherapy—a field focused on treating or removing aging cells. By adjusting glucose metabolism through AUF1 and its targets, scientists believe it may be possible to slow aging or limit its effects on tissue function. More research is needed, but these insights could lead to new strategies for managing age-related diseases and promoting healthier aging.

Dr. Hristov gave a webinar titled “Histidine: a limiting amino acid for dairy cows” on March 4, 2025, and joins the podcast in this episode for a deeper dive into the topic. Panelists introduce themselves and give some background on their interest in histidine (00:52)Dr. Hristov gives an overview of his webinar presentation, touching on some of the first research projects that showed lower protein diets resulted in no change in plasma methionine, but a decrease in plasma histidine. When dietary protein decreases, the cow relies more on microbial protein to meet her needs. Histidine content is about 20% less than methionine content in microbial protein. He also notes there are some short-term reserves of histidine in the body, so short-term studies may not show a histidine deficiency when indeed there is one. (7:08)Matt gives some perspective as a consulting nutritionist about the importance of histidine in diet formulation for his clientele. He agrees with Dr. Hristov about the higher requirement for histidine compared to methionine, and he generally formulates diets with 1.1 times more histidine than methionine. (12:38)The panelists share their experiences with the responses observed from providing additional histidine to lactating cows, including milk and component yields and changes in dry matter intake and body condition. They also talk about how muscle loss can mask a histidine deficiency in the short term. (15:43)The panelists discuss the challenges in determining histidine requirements and finding reliable sources of highly bioavailable histidine. (24:04)Why is rumen-protected histidine not commercially available? Clay explains it is due to the high cost of histidine. There are no feed-grade sources, and using human-grade sources is cost-prohibitive. Dr. Hristov notes swine nutritionists are starting to pay more attention to histidine, which might bring the cost down if demand increases. Matt notes aquaculture is also interested in histidine. (33:58)Matt comments that increasing fat content can be problematic for cheese plants. He sees increasing milk protein yield may be the next frontier of dairy nutrition and histidine might play an important role. The panel discusses the role milk pricing has played in the increased fat content. (37:32)The panel discusses what other amino acids might be important in dairy nutrition as research continues. They also touch on methane mitigation and reducing methane intensity per unit of milk. (43:45)Panelists share their take-home thoughts.

If you haven't listened to Part 1 yet, I encourage you to start there—we covered the basics of protein: what it is, how it functions in the body, why plant and animal amino acids are identical, and why the RDA is just the minimum.In Part 2, I talk about what's shifted for me now that I'm at Level 55 (a language reframe I now love for “aging”), and why I had to “level up” when it came to both strength training and protein intake. Here's what I share:* Why my perspective on protein has deepened—not because I'm vegan, but because I'm 55, post-menopausal, and also highly active* The game-changing role of resistance training (and why lifting heavier is essential as we age)* Why peri- and post-menopausal women—and older men—need more protein to counter muscle loss and support bone health* Practical ways to hit daily targets* The results I've experienced since increasing my protein and lifting heavier
The protein powder boom, anchovies, ancient Roman recipes, and more! Whey, the liquid byproduct of cheese making, was once considered waste. It's now a key ingredient in the protein powders that dieters and weightlifters are downing in ever-greater amounts — and that means big changes for the dairy industry, reports Kevin Draper. Horror film producer turned food historian Christopher Beckman chronicles the anchovy's place in the European cooking canon. Sally Grainger reinterprets Roman recipes taken from Latin texts. As students head back to school, we catch up with Jack Bobo, Executive Director of the UCLA Rothman Family Institute for Food Studies.

Send us a textProtein isn't just for bodybuilders - it's the secret weapon for men and women over 50 who want to burn fat, build muscle, and age with strength, confidence, and vitality. In this episode, host Kevin English sits down with James Oliver, founder of Atlas, a clean, high-protein nutrition company on a mission to help people fuel their bodies with intention. Kevin shares why he made a rare exception to interview the CEO of a protein bar company - and why he's been eating Atlas bars for years. Together, they dive deep into the truth about protein: why most people over 50 are drastically under-eating it, how to close the gap without choking down dry chicken breast all day, and what to look for (and avoid) in protein bars and supplements.
In a powerful episode of the Dr. Gabrielle Lyon show, I sit down with my mentor, Dr. Donald Layman, to directly address some of the most common protein myths. We react to a controversial clip from the Huberman Lab podcast with Dr. Christopher Gardner, offering a different perspective on the conversation about protein intake, metabolic science, and dietary guidelines.Dr. Layman, a pioneer in protein research, breaks down the outdated science behind the Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA), the flaws of nitrogen balance studies, and why a protein-conscious approach is crucial for your long-term health, not just for building muscle.This conversation is a must-listen for anyone who wants to cut through the confusion and understand what the science really says about protein, from its role in metabolism to why a grain-based diet may be leaving you deficient.Chapters0:00 - Intro: The Protein Debate0:32 - Reacting to the Huberman Lab clip1:31 - The flawed science of nitrogen balance studies4:15 - The RDA's misleading "average requirement"7:47 - The gross extrapolation of "deficiency"10:41 - The original protein study subjects12:15 - Why the RDA is much higher than the "minimum"13:17 - Debunking the average American's protein intake15:00 - Is there a storage depot for excess protein?17:34 - The myth of protein being "wasted"19:30 - Why some say protein metabolism is misunderstood22:42 - Defining the RDA and EER25:06 - Why Dr. Gardner's argument is flawed27:17 - Why the nitrogen balance technique is wrong32:37 - How to rectify the protein conversation34:04 - Why we need to compare protein to carbs41:09 - Comparing metabolic consequences of overeating carbs vs. protein48:00 - Why a protein-conscious approach is critical50:41 - Debunking the "incomplete" plant protein myth55:28 - Do plant proteins have enough leucine?1:02:45 - The myth of complimentary proteins1:05:22 - The minimum protein for metabolic benefits1:07:38 - The upper limit of protein1:09:10 - The problem with "amino acid oxidation"1:10:46 - The problem with amino acid supplements1:13:15 - How do you diagnose protein deficiency?1:18:13 - Debunking the "Americans eat the most meat" mythPaleoValley - Get 15% off automatically at https://paleovalley.com/DRLYON Timeline - Get 20% off your order at https://timeline.com/LYON LMNT - Free sample pack with any purchase at https://drinklmnt.com/DRLYON Our Place - Use Code DRLYON for 10% off sitewide at https://fromourplace.com/DRLYONDisclaimer: The Dr. Gabrielle Lyon Podcast and YouTube are for general information purposes only and do not constitute the practice of medicine, nursing, or other professional health care services, including the giving of medical advice, and no doctor/patient relationship is formed.
