In this episode, Dr. David Jockers is joined by his longtime friend Dr. Josh Axe, co-founder and chief visionary officer of Ancient Nutrition, founder of draxe.com, and founder of The Health Institute, for a deep dive into cellular longevity. You will learn why some organs age faster than others, what's really happening inside your cell membranes and mitochondria as you get older, and which foods, from super berries and pomegranates to organ meats, healthy fats, fermented foods, and longevity mushrooms, do the most to slow that process down. Dr. Axe and Dr. Jockers also break down his top longevity supplements, including vitamin D, soil-based probiotics, omega-3s, magnesium, and NAD/NMN, why quality matters so much more than quantity when it comes to supplements, and the surprising role of the gut microbiome, bee products, and daily herbal tea in living a longer, more vibrant life.

You can still build muscle after 40, and the research says you can build it at close to the same rate as a 25-year-old. What has to change is not how hard you train, it is how strategically you train, eat, and recover. Alain Gonzalez is a fitness coach, author, and the creator of the largest YouTube channel dedicated to men's fitness over 40. He has spent more than 17 years helping men build muscle and get their health back, and his book is Muscle After 40. In this conversation we walk through his four pillars of muscle growth: mindset, training, nutrition, and recovery. We cover why volume is the thing that has to change with age, why movement quality sits above everything else in the gym, how to order your nutrition so protein comes first, and why recovery is the pillar most people over 40 quietly skip.

They discuss how much protein may be optimal during body recomposition and fat loss, including research showing that higher-protein diets can help preserve lean mass, improve satiety, and in some cases even support muscle gain while losing body fat. Cassandra also shares fascinating protein-overfeeding research suggesting that increasing calories from protein may affect body composition very differently than overfeeding on fat or carbohydrates. They break down the myth that high-protein diets are harmful to bone health, including research in resistance-trained women, and explore the FTO "obesity gene," how it may influence hunger and food intake, and why exercise appears to reduce some of the differences associated with genetic risk.

GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, Zepbound, and Mounjaro have reshaped the weight-loss landscape almost overnight — but the way they're often prescribed leaves people under-fueled, losing muscle, and going it alone. In this episode of The Coaching Lab, host Leigh Baker sits down with National Board Certified Health & Wellness Coach Erin Chain and triple-board-certified physician Dr. Sheri Poznanovic of Optin Health & Nutrition to unpack what's really happening in the GLP-1 era — and where health and wellness coaching fits into the care plan.Together they explore why so many people on GLP-1s aren't eating or hydrating enough, how rapid weight loss can mask dangerous muscle mass loss, and why a "prescribe-and-disappear" model falls short. Dr. Poznanovic explains the multidisciplinary approach the Obesity Medicine Association recommends — combining medication, nutrition, body composition testing, VO2 max assessment, and coaching — while Erin shares real-world stories of clients navigating low energy, food noise, protein gaps, medication interactions, and the stigma of being on a GLP-1.Whether you're a coach, a clinician, an employer weighing GLP-1 coverage, or someone considering these medications yourself, this conversation offers a grounded, human look at doing weight loss in a way that protects strength, health span, and quality of life — not just the number on the scale.In this episode: • Why coaching alongside a GLP-1 changes outcomes • The under-eating and muscle-loss risks no one warns you about • Protein targets, carbs, and why "anti-carb" advice backfires • Body composition and VO2 max testing in weight management • Medication interactions as you lose weight • Navigating stigma and the joy of food • What employers and coaches should know before adding GLP-1sCoaches: Explore CE credits at catalystcoachinginstitute.com Employers: Learn about Catalyst Coaching's GLP-Whole offering — results@catalystcoaching360.com Join us this fall at the Rocky Mountain Coaching Retreat & Symposium: catalystcoachinginstitute.com/retreatInfo re earning your health & wellness coaching certification, annual Rocky Mountain Coaching Retreat & Symposium & more via https://www.catalystcoachinginstitute.com/ Best-in-class coaching for Employers, EAPs & wellness providers https://catalystcoaching360.com/Tap into the home of the (freely available) Not Done Yet! articles on unlocking life's 2nd half here.YouTube Coaching Channel https://www.youtube.com/c/CoachingChannelContact us: Results@CatalystCoaching360.comTwitter: @Catalyst2ThriveWebsite: CatalystCoaching360.comIf you are a current or future health & wellness coach, please check out our Health & Wellness Coaching Community on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/278207545599218.

Fat Loss School - Weight loss, Wellness, and Mindset Lessons for Women Over 50
Macro tracking can feel confusing at first, but it doesn't have to be. In this FAT LOSS SCHOOL episode, I'm breaking down the basics of protein, carbohydrates, and fat—and explaining why tracking macros can be a more useful fat-loss tool than simply counting calories. You'll learn what macros are, why each one matters, how protein supports muscle preservation after 50, whether you should stay under your macro targets, how to handle protein supplements, fiber, restaurant meals, alcohol, and exercise, and why eating less and exercising more is not always the answer. I'll also explain why your macro targets should be customized to YOU rather than copied from a friend or pulled from a random online calculator. Inside the FASTer Way program, you receive customized macro targets, weekly meal plans and menus, strategically programmed workouts, and coaching to help you put it all together without having to figure it out on your own. If you're a woman over 50 who wants to lose fat, preserve muscle, improve body composition, and finally understand how to fuel your body, consider this your Macro Tracking 101 class. In this episode: What protein, carbs, and fats actually do Macros vs. calories for fat loss Why eating below your targets can backfire How much protein matters after 50 Whole foods vs. “if it fits your macros” Protein powders and supplements Fiber-rich foods Tracking macros while eating at restaurants Alcohol and fat-loss goals Why strength training and nutrition work together How customized macro targets make the process easier This is Part 1 of my Macro Mini-Series, so be sure to listen to the upcoming lessons on practical macro-tracking tips and carb cycling.

Vanessa breaks down the biggest takeaways from her conversation with Dr. Sara Oikawa, including what the research says about losing body fat while preserving—or even gaining—lean mass. A major focus is a tightly controlled body recomposition study in which young men followed a 40% calorie deficit while completing intensive resistance and interval training. The group consuming 2.4 g/kg of protein per day actually gained lean mass while losing fat, while the lower-protein group maintained lean mass. Vanessa explains why resistance training was likely the most important signal, how higher protein intake may support muscle preservation during a deficit, and why body recomposition depends on much more than calories alone.

Vanessa also recaps Dr. Oikawa's step-reduction research, where older adults reduced their activity to just 750 steps per day. Even while consuming a high-protein diet, participants still lost lean mass—highlighting why protein cannot completely replace the stimulus of muscle contraction. Another major focus is protein quality. Vanessa breaks down research comparing whey protein isolate and collagen peptides, why they do not produce the same muscle protein synthetic response, and why simply counting total grams of "protein" may not tell you whether you are getting enough essential amino acids to support muscle. They also explore how aging, energy availability, periods of inactivity, illness, surgery, and aggressive calorie restriction can influence muscle loss and recovery.
Send us Fan MailKeto. Carnivore. Vegan. Mediterranean. Low-carb. Low-fat. With so many competing opinions about nutrition, eating for health and longevity has become unnecessarily complicated.In this episode of the Fit Rx Health & Wellness Podcast, Dr. Greg Dennis continues the 7 Pillars of Optimal Health series with Pillar #2: Nutrition.After years of studying nutrition, longevity, and metabolic health—and seeing what works in clinical practice—Dr. Dennis shares how his own thinking about nutrition has evolved. Rather than following a diet with a particular name, he believes the foundation of good nutrition can be surprisingly simple: prioritize protein, eat mostly real whole foods, maintain a healthy body composition, and individualize carbohydrate and fat intake based on your metabolic health, activity level, and goals.In this episode, you'll learn:Why calories still matterWhy protein becomes increasingly important as we ageThe connection between muscle, metabolic health, and longevityWhether red meat belongs in a healthy dietWhy healthy fats are beneficial—but aren't unlimitedWhy carbohydrates aren't necessarily the enemyThe difference between whole-food carbohydrates and highly processed foodsWhen low-carb and ketogenic diets may be useful therapeutic toolsThe pros and limitations of vegan, vegetarian, and carnivore dietsWhy ultra-processed foods may be a much bigger problem than any single macronutrientWhat Dr. Dennis actually eats and how his own approach to nutrition has changed over the yearsThe takeaway is simple: your diet doesn't need a name.For most people, building meals around quality protein and minimally processed whole foods—while limiting the highly processed foods that dominate the modern diet—is a sustainable foundation for metabolic health, maintaining muscle, healthy aging, and longevity.This is the second episode in the 7 Pillars of Optimal Health series. Follow the Fit Rx Health & Wellness Podcast as we explore Sleep, Nutrition, Movement & Strength, Hormonal Health, Emotional Health, Relational Health, and Spiritual Health.Support the show

What if your low energy, stubborn weight gain, brain fog, poor recovery, mood changes, and stalled progress aren't simply signs that you need to work harder—but clues that your thyroid isn't functioning optimally? Dr. Amie Hornaman, author of The Thyroid Fix, joins us to explain why she considers the thyroid the body's "master gland" and why standard thyroid testing may not tell the entire story. They break down TSH, free T3, free T4, reverse T3 and thyroid antibodies; the difference between "normal" and optimal lab results; Hashimoto's and hypothyroidism; and when thyroid hormone replacement may be appropriate. Amie also explains how gluten, over-exercising, chronic under-eating, nutrient deficiencies and aggressive GLP-1 use may affect thyroid health and metabolism. Plus, she explains the importance of iodine, selenium, magnesium, protein and dietary fat, detoxification, and so much more!

Do most people really need to eat less protein to live longer? In this episode of Metabolic Mind, Dr. Bret Scher responds to a new review getting attention for the claim that protein restriction may extend lifespan, and explains why that message can be misleading for older adults, active people, and anyone focused on metabolic health.Dr. Scher walks through the biology behind the headlines, including mTOR, FGF21, animal research, and the limits of applying rodent data directly to humans. He also explains why adequate protein becomes more important with age, especially for preserving muscle, reducing frailty risk, supporting insulin sensitivity, and maintaining independence.He covers:Why “eat less protein” headlines can miss important contextWhat mTOR and FGF21 have to do with protein restriction and longevityWhy rodent studies do not always translate cleanly to human healthHow sarcopenia and anabolic resistance change protein needs with ageWhy the protein RDA is a minimum, not a personalized target for health optimizationHow muscle supports glucose control and insulin sensitivityWhy protein needs depend on age, activity level, metabolic health, pregnancy, recovery, and training statusHow exercise, fasting, and lower insulin may influence similar cellular pathways without sacrificing adequate proteinProtein needs are personal. A sedentary 35-year-old, a 70-year-old trying to preserve muscle, an athlete, and someone recovering from illness are not all aiming for the same target. Age, activity, metabolic health, and muscle goals should shape the conversation.

Dr. Joey Munoz is a nutrition and fitness expert with a PhD in nutritional sciences who helps people cut through the noise around weight loss, metabolism, and training to build healthier, stronger bodies without extreme diets or unsustainable routines.In this episode, Joey joins me to break down the biggest mistakes women make when trying to lose weight and why doing “everything right” can sometimes leave you feeling more frustrated with your body. We talk about why you can actually become more critical of your appearance as you get closer to your goals, the concept of perception drift, and how to get leaner and change your body composition without necessarily losing more weight.

Protein Isn't Optional… It's Required“The Most Important Nutrient You're Probably Undereating (And Why It's Holding You Back)”Protein, protein, protein…You hear it everywhere.But here's the problem…Most people have no idea why it matters on a metabolic level.They just know they're “supposed” to eat more of it.And when you don't understand the why…You don't follow through consistently.That changes today.This episode breaks down what protein actually does inside your body…And why not getting enough is quietly sabotaging your energy, your metabolism, your recovery, and your results.This isn't about eating more chicken.This is about understanding how your body works… so you can finally start working with it instead of against it.Protein is not just another macronutrient.It's the raw material your body uses to build and repair:Muscle tissueHormonesEnzymesNeurotransmittersImmune functionNo protein… no optimal function.When protein intake is where it needs to be:You preserve and build lean muscleYour metabolism stays higherBlood sugar stabilizesCravings decreaseYou stay fuller longerRecovery improvesBrain function and mood improveThis is why people who prioritize protein tend to feel better, look better, and perform better.When protein is low:You lose muscle instead of preserving itYour metabolism slows downHunger and cravings increaseEnergy becomes inconsistentFat loss stallsRecovery suffersYour body becomes under-suppliedYou can be “eating less” and still getting worse results.That's the trap.Protein tells your body:Hold onto muscle. Burn fat. Stay strong.Low protein tells your body:Break down muscle. Conserve energy. Slow things down.That's not opinion.That's physiology.A simple, effective starting point:Aim for about your body weight in grams of protein per day.If that feels like a big jump…Start where you are and build up.Progress over perfection.This is where most people fail.Not knowledge… execution.Simple rules:Build every meal around proteinDon't wait until dinner to “catch up”Plan your protein ahead of timeUse shakes or supplements if neededIf you don't plan it… you won't hit it.The person who gets results…Doesn't guess with protein.They prioritize it.They don't “try” to hit their number.They make it non-negotiable.Protein isn't a trend.It's a requirement.If you want energy, fat loss, strength, recovery, and a metabolism that works for you…This is one of the simplest and most powerful shifts you can make.Set your daily protein target.Start building your meals around it.And prove to yourself that you're not the person who leaves results up to chance anymore.If this episode helped you…Share it with someone who's been “trying everything” but still not seeing results.Because this might be the piece they're missing.And remember:You don't get healthy because you lost weight.You lose weight because you got healthy.
Let's get into it! Some topics from today's episode include:⭐️Food is more than calories. Protein, carbs, fats, vitamins, minerals, fiber, water, and electrolytes all play different roles in how the body functions.⭐️The body is a high-performance machine; you need to think about what you consistently give your body to work with.⭐️Why ultra-processed foods are easy to overeat, especially when refined carbs, fats, sodium, and intense flavors are engineered to increase palatability.⭐️Dopamine as part of motivation, learning, anticipation, and reward, not just simple pleasure, and connects that to repeated cue-based eating patterns.⭐️Cravings can be learned responses and that food preferences can change through repeated exposure and practice.⭐️A major difference in her energy, brain clarity, skin, and under-eye puffiness when she goes off her usual nutrition pattern.⭐️The goal is not to change everything at once, but to make one better choice, then another, until new habits become normal.The 21 Day Rockstar Rewired Reset: FOR THE WOMAN OVER 40…Who is tired of starting over and frustrated that she can't seem to stay consistent. Discover why consistency has never been your real problem and how to become the woman who naturally follows through so you can build and maintain a strong, fit body for life.

Menopause advice has never been louder—and a lot of it has very little to do with actually feeding yourself. After spending a month in remote Maine, I came home with some clarity about what I want to build next: less wellness noise, more real food, and more kitchen confidence for women in midlife.In this episode, I talk honestly about why I've felt stuck, what slowing down gave me, and how my work keeps pointing me back to the same place: cooking. I'm a culinary nutritionist and former private chef, yet somewhere along the way I almost forgot how central cooking was to why I started doing this work in the first place.We also zoom out to the much bigger—and increasingly noisy—world of menopause nutrition and midlife wellness: GLP-1 medications, supplements, peptides, protein obsession, menopause weight gain, and the endless stream of nutrition advice and misinformation online. Some of these tools absolutely have a place, and menopause hormone therapy can be life-changing for the right person. But what happens when every body change becomes a problem to solve or a product to buy—and food becomes an afterthought?The question I keep coming back to is much simpler:How do we turn the science into dinner?Protein, fiber, blood sugar, bone health, heart health, sleep and energy all matter, especially for women in menopause and midlife. But knowing what nutrients we need isn't the same thing as knowing how to make satisfying, nourishing food we actually want to eat on a Wednesday night when we're tired.That's where I want to spend more of my time.I also introduce the idea of being "cooking curious" and why approaching the kitchen with a beginner's mind can replace intimidation and perfectionism with confidence, creativity and pleasure.If you've ever thought, "I'm not a cook," you are exactly who I want here. You don't have to be an experienced cook. You just have to be curious about what might happen if you became a little more comfortable feeding yourself well.Listen, subscribe and share this episode with a friend. And I'd love to know: What would make you feel more confident—or simply more interested—in your own kitchen?I would love to hear from you! What did you think of the episode?

Vanessa is joined by Craig Emmerich, co-author with Maria Emmerich of The Art of Metabolic Health, for a deep dive into how to lose body fat while protecting lean mass and hard-earned muscle.

Australia, New Zealand & Southeast Asia: Save 75% on available ToneLUX and Tone products during our warehouse moving sale with code WAREHOUSE75, while supplies last. Craig explains why fat loss is about more than simply lowering calories, including the role of fuel partitioning, protein, dietary fat, carbohydrate intake, and the Randle cycle. They also explore why traditional high-fat keto or carnivore approaches can initially work well yet eventually lead to plateaus—or even weight gain—for some people, and why shifting toward a higher-protein, lower-energy approach may help. A major focus is protein-sparing modified fasting (PSMF): how Craig and Maria structure PSMF days, who may benefit most, how often they recommend using them, and why strategic maintenance days may help support long-term results. -

You can also see it on YouTube.Devin: What is your superpower?Anne: I tend to question everything.Jiminy's is proving that cricket protein can help dogs live healthier lives while cutting the carbon pawprints of America's pets.Anne Carlson, founder and CEO of Jiminy's, has built a purpose-driven company around an idea that sounds surprising until you hear the science. Jiminy's makes dog food, treats and dental chews using insect protein. Anne explained the mission simply: “At Jiminy's, we help dogs live longer, healthier lives on a greener planet.”The environmental case is powerful. Anne shared that a UCLA study found that 25 to 30 percent of the environmental impact of meat consumption in the United States comes from dogs and cats. Replacing traditional animal protein in pet food with insect protein can reduce land use, water use and greenhouse gas emissions.For Anne, the mission began at home. “I had this conversation with my daughter, and she really hit me with a bombshell,” she told me. “She told me that she didn't want to have kids. And the reason was she was worried about what the world would be like by the time those kids grew up.”That moment changed her career path. She had worked in the pet industry and knew there was room for innovation. Then she saw a United Nations study suggesting insects could help address world hunger. She ordered dry-roasted crickets online and offered them to her dogs.“The dogs went crazy for it,” Anne said. “As soon as they started drooling, I knew we had something that we could work with.”Anne Carlson will be speaking at SuperCrowd26 featuring PurposeBuilt100™️! Register now to watch his session live.What impresses me most is that Jiminy's is not just a clever brand with a fun name. Anne and her team have invested in science. They worked through FDA and AAFCO processes to demonstrate digestibility, palatability and real health benefits. Anne said the protein has been shown to support the microbiome, skin and coat health and even oral health.That science has translated into products dogs love and pet parents can feel good about buying. Jiminy's has won industry recognition for its food, treats and dental chews while growing distribution online and in independent pet stores.Anne is showing that purpose and growth can run together. By asking better questions about what we feed our pets, she is helping build a healthier future for dogs and the planet they depend on.tl;dr:Jiminy's uses cricket protein to create sustainable pet food that reduces environmental impact.Anne's climate concern for her daughter inspired her purpose-driven entrepreneurial journey.Science-backed benefits for dogs include improved gut health, oral health, and overall wellness.Jiminy's has earned industry recognition for its eco-friendly pet food innovations and growth.Anne's superpower is questioning everything and tenaciously pursuing innovative solutions.How to Develop Question Everything As a SuperpowerAnne's superpower is Question Everything. She told me, “I tend to question everything,” adding that she is “curious” and likes “to understand how things work.” That habit is not passive. Anne continues to ask, “What else can we do? How else can we have impact?” For her, the question is only the beginning. She emphasized that it is “not just ask the question, but then follow up,” because when a path emerges, “you've got to be tenacious to get it done.”Anne illustrated her superpower with a discovery that began on her floor at home. Her older dog Tuco was breathing in her face, and she wondered, “How the heck does Tuco have good breath?” She opened his mouth and saw white teeth. Because she was not giving him dental chews, she asked her scientists whether insect protein could be affecting his mouth. They hypothesized that medium-chain fatty acids might be responsible. Anne kept pushing. The company conducted a study, proved the oral microbiome benefit and relaunched dental chews that later won a major innovation award.Be fully present when talking with people so you notice ideas worth exploring.Do not let questions pass through your mind without asking them out loud.Probe for the underlying reason when something surprises you or does not make sense.Use science, data and expert partners to test your hypotheses.Follow up on promising questions with tenacity until you discover whether they lead somewhere useful.Keep asking how your work can create more impact for customers, animals and the planet.By following Anne's example and advice, you can make questioning everything a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileAnne Carlson (she/her):Founder & CEO, Jiminy's, Inc.About Jiminy's, Inc.: Jiminy's is disrupting the pet industry; fighting climate change as we feed our pets. We make sustainable dog food and treats using a novel protein source - insect protein! Jiminy's products nourish our pets and promote long-term stewardship of the earth.Website: jiminys.comCompany Facebook Page: facebook.com/jiminysforpetsBiographical Information: Meet Anne Carlson – the dog-loving entrepreneur who's revolutionizing pet food by thinking outside the (kibble) box! As the founder of Jiminy's, she's on a mission to make dog food and treats that are both tail-waggingly delicious and planet-friendly, using – wait for it – cricket protein! Her innovative approach is turning heads in the pet industry, with Jiminy's racking up impressive recognition in 2024: snagging the Pet Innovation Award for Best Dry Dog Food with Good Grub, winning Pet Age Magazine's Editor's Select Award for their mouthwatering Sweet Potato & Peas Training Treats, and scoring Pet Product News Magazine's Editor's Choice Award for their game-changing Dental Chews! When she's not leading her award-winning company, you might find Anne geeking out over insect agriculture (yes, she literally wrote the scientific playbook for cricket protein in dog food!). Her groundbreaking work earned her the 2019 Entrepreneur of the Year award, but her real critics are her four-legged taste-testers: Tuco and Timber, her beloved pups. Before becoming the “Cricket Queen” of pet food, Anne was a corporate powerhouse at Big Heart Pet Brands and founded Secant (which she later sold to IRI). She's got the brains to back her vision – with degrees from Wash U and NYU – but these days, she's focused on changing the world one sustainable kibble at a time. When she's not disrupting the pet food industry, Anne's hanging with her family in Berkeley, CA, where her husband Eric and daughter Boothe have learned to embrace her passion for sustainable pet parenthood!Personal Facebook Profile: facebook.com/anne.t.carlsonLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/annetcarlson/Instagram: @jiminysforpetsSupport Our SponsorsOur generous sponsors make our work possible, serving impact investors, social entrepreneurs, community builders and diverse founders.

Muscle is not just something you build in the gym. Dr. Gabrielle Lyon has spent her career arguing it's the organ that actually determines how well you age, and almost none of us have been taught to think about it that way.Dr. Gabrielle Lyon, DO, is the founder of Muscle-Centric Medicine and the New York Times bestselling author of Forever Strong. She's spent over two decades studying muscle as the most overlooked organ in medicine.The line that stuck with me most: she believes we're on track to trade an obesity epidemic for a sarcopenia epidemic, and most people won't see it coming until it's already happened. It's the kind of prediction I can't stop turning over, especially knowing how many women are on these medications right now without anyone telling them how to protect their muscles while they're on them. Join the most comprehensive *female-specific community for health and longevity optimization.* After over a decade dedicated to human performance and women's health, I created this space to share everything you need to know to optimize health and lifespan.

In this episode, I tackle a few of the questions I get all the time around nutrition and training, from intermittent fasting and hitting your protein goals to figuring out where you should actually start when it comes to building a better body. I break down why I'm not a huge fan of intermittent fasting for most people, why awareness of your calories and macros matters more than chasing the latest diet hack, and how to make hitting your protein target much simpler by structuring your meals properly.I also get into what I believe is one of the biggest mistakes people make in the gym: trying to train like someone who is already years ahead of them. You don't start in fifth gear, you start in first. I explain why mastering the fundamentals, learning to move properly, and building a solid foundation should come before advanced training methods, high-volume bodybuilding programs, and all the nuances you see online. Whether you're brand new to training or you've been doing this for years, there's always value in going back to the basics and making sure your foundation is strong. Hosted on Acast.

Metabolic health is far more nuanced than conventional nutrition advice suggests. On this week's episode of the WHOOP Podcast, WHOOP Global Head of Human Performance and Principal Scientist Dr. Kristen Holmes sits down with Metabolic Health Expert Dr. Nick Norwitz MD PhD to discuss why curiosity is one of the most powerful tools for improving long-term health. Dr. Nick Norwitz shares how a ketogenic diet unexpectedly put his inflammatory bowel disease into remission after numerous conventional treatments had failed. This experimentation sparked a career dedicated to challenging assumptions with rigorous science and thoughtful self-experimentation. Together, Dr. Nick Norwitz and Dr. Kristen Holmes unpack the difference between "evidence-based" and truly individualized care. This episode continues to explore why muscle, sleep, and visceral fat play central roles in brain, heart, and metabolic health. From discussions on protein, the microbiome, and emerging therapies to Nick's famous Oreo-versus-statin experiment, the conversation encourages listeners to move beyond one-size-fits-all health advice, and partner with their healthcare providers to embrace safe, data-informed experimentation for a better understanding of their biology.

What if the pursuit of optimal health is actually making health more complicated than it needs to be?Dr. Jordan Feigenbaum is a physician, competitive strength athlete, coach, and co-founder of Barbell Medicine, where he works to bridge the gap between modern medicine, strength training, and evidence-based health.In this episode, Bryce sits down with Jordan for a wide-ranging conversation about one of the strangest moments in modern wellness.Peptides. Biohacking. Testosterone. GLP-1s. Protein. Pain. Strength. Recovery. Longevity. Health optimization.We have more information, testing, supplements, technology, and “hacks” than ever before…but are we actually getting healthier?Jordan challenges some of the health and fitness beliefs we've accepted as fact and explains why evidence matters, why our bodies may be more resilient than we think, and why getting stronger might still be one of the most powerful health interventions available to us.This isn't about rejecting innovation.It's about learning to separate evidence from enthusiasm.MAJOR TAKEAWAYS• Not all “peptides” are the same. Some peptide medications have strong evidence behind them, while many compounds promoted by biohacking and longevity clinics have little or no quality human evidence.• Biological plausibility isn't the same thing as proof. Something sounding like it should work doesn't mean we've demonstrated that it does.• More health data doesn't automatically create better health.• Strength training remains one of the most accessible and powerful tools we have for improving health, physical capacity, and quality of life.• Pain doesn't always mean damage, and treating the human body as fragile can change how people move, train, and see themselves.• Health shouldn't become an endless pursuit of optimization.• Before searching for the next compound, supplement, wearable, or hack, ask whether you've mastered the fundamentals.• Good science requires being willing to change your mind when better evidence arrives.QUESTIONS WE EXPLOREWhy have peptides exploded in popularity?Are compounds like BPC-157 being promoted faster than the science supports?Have longevity clinics blurred the line between medicine and marketing?When does biohacking become health anxiety?Are we overtesting hormones and testosterone?Are GLP-1 medications fundamentally different from the broader peptide craze?Does pain actually mean your body is damaged?Do we overcomplicate mobility and recovery?How important is strength for longevity?And ultimately…Have we become so obsessed with optimizing health that we've forgotten how to simply be healthy?QUOTES“Evidence and enthusiasm are not the same thing.”“Your body is probably more resilient than you've been taught to believe.”“More information doesn't always create better decisions.”“Before you optimize everything, make sure you've mastered something.”“Health should give you more freedom to live, not more things to worry about.”TIMESTAMPS00:00 – Welcome to ALLSMITH00:00 – Meet Dr. Jordan Feigenbaum00:00 – Medicine meets the barbell00:00 – Why Jordan questions conventional health advice00:00 – The explosion of peptides00:00 – BPC-157 and the evidence problem00:00 – Peptides vs. proven medications00:00 – Has biohacking gone too far?00:00 – Testosterone, hormones & optimization00:00 – GLP-1s, obesity & modern medicine00:00 – Protein myths and nutrition00:00 – Pain doesn't always mean damage00:00 – Are our bodies more resilient than we think?00:00 – Mobility, stretching & recovery00:00 – Strength training as medicine00:00 – What actually matters for longevity?00:00 – Health anxiety and wearable data00:00 – Evidence vs. wellness marketing00:00 – The fundamentals we keep ignoring00:00 – Jordan's non-negotiables for lifelong healthCONCLUSIONThe future of health will undoubtedly bring better technology, medications, diagnostics, and tools.But new doesn't automatically mean better.Jordan's work is a reminder to stay curious without becoming gullible, to question conventional wisdom without rejecting science, and to demand evidence before allowing hype to dictate how we treat our bodies.Maybe the ultimate health hack isn't another injection, supplement, wearable, or protocol.Maybe it's building a strong body, thinking critically, staying connected to people you love, and creating a life you're healthy enough to actually enjoy.JOIN ALLSMITHIf this conversation challenged something you believed, send it to someone who would enjoy wrestling with these ideas too.Subscribe to ALLSMITH on YouTube and follow the show on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.If the show brings value to your life, leaving a rating or review is one of the simplest ways you can help us continue bringing these conversations to more people.Fitness is the vessel.

Hey, Heal Squad! If you've been hearing everyone talk about building muscle but never really understood why it's so important, this is the episode you've been waiting for. Dr. Gabrielle Lyon is a board-certified physician, longevity expert, and New York Times bestselling author of Forever Strong, and she completely flips the script on what muscle actually does for our bodies. It turns out muscle isn't just about looking toned or getting stronger ...it's one of the most powerful organs for protecting your brain, supporting your metabolism, regulating blood sugar, and helping you stay healthy as you age. Dr. Lyon breaks down the fascinating connection between muscle and brain health, why brain fog and low energy may all be connected to muscle loss, and why simply building muscles are one of the best things you can do for your long-term health. They also dive into protein...like how much you really need, why quality matters, and the surprising role essential amino acids play in building and protecting muscle.Then they tackle one of the biggest health topics right now: GLP-1 medications. Dr. Lyon explains why they are posing another “problem” and although these medications can be an incredible tool, she talks about why protecting your muscle through resistance training and proper nutrition is the piece of the conversation too many people are missing. If you've ever wondered what you should actually be doing today to protect your physical and mental health, this episode is packed with practical advice and plenty of "I never knew that!" moments. P.S. Be sure to check out Dr. Lyon's new book too: The Forever Strong Playbook, a step-by-step guide to help transform muscle health in 6 weeks! HEALERS & HEAL LINERS Muscle is one of the most powerful organs in your body, not just for strength, but for your brain, metabolism, and longevity. Every time you move your muscles, you're investing in better cognitive function, blood sugar regulation, and healthier aging. Don't wait until you're sick to prioritize your health. As Dr. Lyon says, "If you don't have time for wellness, how are you going to have time for sickness?" The goal isn't just to lose weight, it's to protect your muscles. Dr. Lyon challenges us to think differently about health, explaining that unhealthy muscle may be the real root of many chronic diseases and that preserving muscle is essential, especially in the age of GLP-1 medications.

What if the body you're working sooo hard to build actually weighs MORE than the number you've been chasing? For years, women have been taught that smaller equals better. Eat as little as possible, weigh less, fit into smaller jeans, etc. - the list goes on.But…if your goal is to look strong, muscular, healthy, and confident, constantly trying to shrink yourself might be the exact thing keeping you from getting there!In this episode, we're talking about why eating more and watching the scale go up can feel like such a mind f*ck (even when you're gaining muscle, getting stronger, and feeling better). Your healthiest body may not be your lightest body, and your strongest body *might* weigh more than you think it should.Remember - the goal isn't to become the smallest version of yourself. It's to become the strongest version of yourself, so let's f*cking do it!!Episode recap:Why your dream body might actually weigh more than your goal weightWhere your goal weight came from + whether it still makes sense for your body & life NOWMoving from “how little can I eat” to “what does my body need to feel good, train hard, and build muscle?”Why eating more can feel uncomfortable after years of diet culture & restrictionWhy body recomposition requires fuelWhy the scale going up doesn't automatically mean you've gained fat.How eating enough can support every part of your lifeMeasuring progress by your strength, energy, confidence, performance, and consistencyShifting from becoming the smallest version of yourself to the strongest versionLinks/Resources:SHOP UFYF merchandiseGrab your FREE Body Recomp Meal Prep and get the UFYF NewsletterSHOP Kion - my favorite Protein, EAA's and Creatine!Join FIT CLUB, my monthly membership with workouts you can do at home or the gymConnect with me on Instagram @kristycastillofit and @unfuckyourfitnesspodcastJoin my FREE Facebook group, Unf*ck Your FitnessClick HERE for my favorite fitness & life things!Send me a text with episode ideas or just to say hi!

Episode Notes For women who strength train, nutrition is the thing everyone has an opinion on and almost nobody explains clearly. The information is loud, it is contradictory, and a lot of it is coming from people who spent a week getting a certification online. The result is food noise — the constant mental chatter around what to eat, when to eat it, whether you ate too much or the wrong things — and it is exhausting. In this episode you will get clear, evidence-based answers from someone who spent four years and over 1,200 supervised clinical hours earning the right to give them. Sarah Bomer is a registered dietician, personal trainer, pre and postnatal specialist, and one of the newest assistant coaches on the BroadsCOACH team. She holds her master's degree in Nutrition and Dietetics from Metro State University of Denver and completed her dietetic internship at Children's Hospital before passing her national registration exam. She trains primarily women with a focus on building a relationship with food that actually supports their training — not one that makes it harder. What's Discussed: Who Sarah Bomer is — five years in fitness, group training to private clients, bridal and pre/postnatal specialization, and the four-year journey to becoming a registered dietician RD vs. nutritionist — what the credential difference actually means, what it takes to become a registered dietician (master's degree, 1,200+ supervised hours, national registration exam), and why the word "nutritionist" has almost no legal or educational protection behind it Why Sarah chose the evidence-based RD path over the shorter route — and what that deeper clinical training gives her clients that a nutritionist certification cannot Protein for women — how much, why it matters, and what consistently undereating it actually costs you What food noise is, why it is so consuming for women who are already doing everything right, and what it actually takes to quiet it Why diets fail — the diet culture trap and what a sustainable approach to nutrition actually looks like versus restriction dressed up as a plan Building a balanced plate — how to structure meals to hit macro and micronutrient goals without it becoming another thing to overthink Food tracking — when it is a useful tool, when it starts working against you, and how to know which one it is for you GLP-1 medications (Ozempic, Wegovy) — a nuanced, non-judgmental take on where they have a legitimate place, where they are being misused, and why undereating and malnourishment are the most common things she sees with clients on them Rapid fire myth-busting: carbs after 6pm make you gain weight, you need to detox, eating fat makes you fat, you can out-train a bad diet, fruit has too much sugar, everyone should be gluten-free, breakfast is the most important meal of the day, if you can't pronounce an ingredient you should not eat it What it is actually like to work with BroadsCOACH clients — and why the mindset women bring to Broads makes them a different kind of client to work with The one piece of nutrition advice every woman should hear: nourish your body consistently Ready to work with a coach who integrates training and nutrition the way it was always meant to be?

If you've ever thought, "I'll deal with my health once I actually feel sick," I want you to know something: That's how so many people lose their vitality. Between feeling well and being diagnosed, there is a whole world of clues. Fatigue. Poor sleep. Stress that never quite turns off. A body that still functions… but has no reserve left. In this episode, I'm joined by Marina Moiseyeva, founder of Harmonious Life Family Health Clinic in Brooklyn, New York. Marina is a family wellness practitioner with nearly 17 years of experience and more than 50,000 consultations. She started in holistic health coaching, moved into integrative functional medicine, and now runs a longevity and biohacking clinic that serves kids, adults, and entire families. Together, we talk about what actually stands between you and feeling your best, why so much of modern "stress" starts in your physiology, and why the most powerful biohacks are often the simplest ones. If you've been chasing optimization, supplements, or the latest trend and still feel depleted, this conversation will help you come back to what actually builds resilience. In This Episode, We Cover: Why people wait until they're debilitated before they get help The hidden "in-betweens" between being well and being sick How sleep and stress quietly drain every system in the body Why coffee and a high-carb breakfast can make you feel anxious Why oatmeal, smoothies, and intermittent fasting don't work for everyone What biohacking actually means (and why it isn't only for the ultra-wealthy) Why vitality is about function and resilience—not perfect wearable scores How to use bloodwork as motivation, not just a diagnosis Why women in perimenopause need a different approach than men The cheap biohacks that make the biggest difference Why sleep should never be the thing you compromise Creatine hydrochloride as a simple support for brain, bone, and muscle How to change one habit at a time without burning out Why food is first-line therapy A Message I Want You to Hear You do not have to wait for a diagnosis to start taking care of yourself. You do not need the most expensive protocol. You do not need to biohack like a celebrity. You need the courage to notice the small signals now—before they become something bigger. Your body is always giving you information. The question is whether you're listening. The In-Between of Wellness Most of us were taught to see a doctor when we can't function anymore. When the pain is debilitating. When daily life is already falling apart. Marina says that's far too late. Between well and sick, there are clues. Hints. In-betweens. A little less energy. A little more stress. Sleep that isn't quite restorative. Those early signs are not nothing. They are your opportunity to rebalance before the body is forced into disease, imbalance, or a diagnosis. Why You Feel Stressed Even When Life Looks Fine We assume stress is always emotional. A hard season. Too many hats. Work, kids, a business, a never-ending to-do list. And yes, that kind of stress is real. But Marina makes an important distinction: Sometimes you feel stressed because your physiology is stressed. If you wake up and drink black coffee in the first hour, you can push your body into fight-or-flight before the day has even started. If breakfast is a croissant, cereal, a fruit-heavy smoothie, or even oatmeal while you sit at a desk, you can spike insulin, raise cortisol, and feel anxious for no "good" reason. The food you eat in the morning can support your nervous system. Or it can work against it. That's why she doesn't treat stress as a personality problem. She looks at the routine. Sleep. Meal timing. Protein. Life stage. Because what worked in your 20s and 30s is often not what will support you in your 40s and 50s—especially as a woman. Biohacking Is Simpler Than You Think Biohacking can sound mysterious. Blue-blocking glasses. Red light. Expensive gadgets. Extreme protocols. Marina's definition is much simpler. Biohacking is changing your behavior—your lifestyle, your food, your movement, your bedtime—so you feel better. A better sleep routine is biohacking. Choosing a workout that actually suits your body is biohacking. Using a nutrient that supports your energy is biohacking. You do not need to live like Bryan Johnson. You do not need a perfect HRV score. Wearables can be useful, but the "healthy average" they are based on still includes a lot of people with health issues. The real win is your own improvement. If your HRV was 15 and now it's 25, that is progress. Don't chase someone else's number. Chase your own resilience. Vitality Means Function—Not Perfect Scores We are living longer. That part is not up for debate. The question is how we live those years. Marina's picture of vitality is this: You want to be able to go to the gym the day before you die. Not because fitness is the only measure of a life. Because vitality is function. It's health resilience. It's the ability to keep doing the things that make life feel like yours. Arthritis at 55. Exhaustion. "That's just aging." Some of those things are more optional than we've been told. They take effort. They take personalized care. But the goal isn't to collect more data. The goal is to stay capable. Sleep Is Your Best Biohack If Marina had to pick one place to start, it would be sleep. She used to run on four or five hours a night for decades. She thought she was fine. No midday crash. No obvious brain fog. Then she experimented with seven hours. And she felt the difference. That's the trap. A lot of people say they have no health concerns. Then the bloodwork tells a different story. By the time a conventional marker is flagged, the imbalance has often been building for years. So start with the foundation that costs almost nothing: Get to bed before midnight. Aim for at least seven hours of uninterrupted sleep in a dark room. Keep the room around 70 degrees. Put the phone on Wi-Fi or off. Blackout curtains. Women often need closer to seven to nine hours. And if you feel like you "can't function" without eight hours, Marina's response is simple: You're normal. Don't steal from sleep to make room for a 5 a.m. workout, fasting, and a cold plunge. That combination can look like the perfect protocol. For a woman in her 40s, it can also be the reason her cycle disappears. Sleep is not the thing you compromise so you can do more biohacks. Sleep is the biohack. If you do have an occasional short night, Marina's inexpensive support is creatine hydrochloride—not the monohydrate form that can make some women feel puffy. She uses it for brain sharpness, and she also likes it for bone, muscle, and liver support. But even that is an add-on. The core is still darkness, timing, and enough hours. Stop Chasing Trends Healthy intentions can still ruin your health. A perfect workout on five hours of sleep. Intermittent fasting that doesn't match your hormones. A cold plunge because it's popular. Coffee before your body has even woken up. Ten goals at once, then the feeling that you failed. Marina's approach is the opposite of all-or-nothing. Food is medicine. You take that "medicine" at least three times a day. So nutrition is first-line therapy—not something you try to out-supplement later. She has patients list ten lifestyle changes they already know they should make. Then they rank them from easiest to hardest. And they start with the easiest one. Warm water. Not drinking coffee in the first hour. One small, doable shift. If you change one habit every two months, you can have six solid habits by the end of the year. That's how resilience is built. Not through the loudest protocol. Through the one you can actually keep. Your Action Step Pick one thing. Not ten. Not a full biohacking stack. One. Protect your sleep this week. Get to bed before midnight. Make the room dark. Give yourself seven hours. Or, if sleep is already solid, choose the next easiest habit: delay your coffee, add protein at breakfast, or stop eating too close to bed. Then notice how you feel. That's the data that matters. Final Thoughts You don't need a more extreme version of health. You need a more sustainable one. Your sleep. Your stress. Your food. Your season of life. Those are the foundations of vitality. Optimization is optional. Resilience is not. Keep listening to your body. Your energy matters.

After 40, testosterone drops, muscle mass shrinks by 3 to 8% per decade, and the scale stops telling the truth about what's actually happening to your body. In this episode, Jeff sits down with Dr. Joey Munoz, a body composition coach and founder of Strong Standard, to break down what's really driving that decline and what to do about it. Why body composition, not weight, is the real marker to track The DEXA scan, waist-to-hip ratio, and at-home tools worth trusting The science of muscle protein synthesis, and why "effective reps" matter more than total reps How to build muscle without gaining weight through body recomposition Protein targets, meal timing, and the supplements actually worth taking Grass-Fed Shark: fasted cardio and the "zone two fat-burning zone" put to the test This episode is for anyone in their 40s, 50s, or 60s trying to hold onto the body they used to have, and anyone who wants a clear framework instead of gym folklore.

We're discussing how to maintain health and vitality as we age, focusing on practical habits for strength, movement, sleep, nutrition, social connection, and regular health checks.
I've been talking a lot about eating healthy high protein. And sometimes it feels like you have to choose a side. High protein or plant-focused.But both play really important roles for energy, appetite, muscle health, gut health and healthy ageing. My guest today actually describes them as a dynamic duo

Leveling Up: Creating Everything From Nothing with Natalie Jill
What if everything you've been told about "lifting heavy" is actually setting you up to get hurt instead of getting stronger? I sit down with Dr. Stephanie Estima, doctor of chiropractic, female metabolism expert, and creator of the Betty Body Method, to pull apart the fitness advice flooding your feed and replace it with what actually works for women in midlife. We start with the "eat more protein, lift heavier" noise online and dig into why that advice, without context, is nearly useless. Stephanie breaks down exactly how you know you're lifting heavy enough (hint: it has nothing to do with a specific number of pounds), why so many of us skipped straight past the strength foundation we needed in our 20s and 30s, and how that's showing up now in injuries and frustration. This episode will change how you think about every workout, every meal, and every wellness trend you scroll past. We Go Deep On: How to actually know you're lifting heavy enough (it has nothing to do with the number on the dumbbell) Why so many midlife women skipped the strength foundation they needed decades ago The Trendelenburg test and why 85-90% of back pain patients have weak glutes The direct link between glute strength and chronic low back pain My own disc rupture and disc replacement story, and what rebuilt my lower body Progressive overload without the injury risk, including rest periods that actually work VO2 max training and why cardio still matters after 40 Weighted vests, vibration plates, and step counts: what the research actually says Why "toning" isn't a real physiological process Rethinking protein without obsessive tracking An honest take on GLP-1 medications and what most protocols are missing Stephanie's simple, non-negotiable supplement list Why the fear of carbs (and honestly, fear of everything but protein) has gotten out of hand Letting go of "skinny" as the goal and redefining what a healthy body actually looks like Catch the full episode on YOUTUBE HERE: https://bit.ly/MidlifeConversationsYouTube Learn More About Dr. Stephanie Estima Instagram ➜ https://www.instagram.com/dr.stephanie.estima Website ➜ https://drstephanieestima.com/ Book ➜ The Betty Body: A Geeky Goddess' Guide to Intuitive Eating, Balanced Hormones, and Transformative Sex https://amzn.to/45CNOg5 Thank you to our show sponsors: TIMELINE:Timeline is offering 20% off your order!
