Podcasts about RDA

We're continuing the protein conversation I started in Are You Getting Enough Protein? (Part One and Part Two). In those episodes, I unpacked why amino acids from plant and animal sources are identical, why the RDA is just a minimum, and why being intentional about protein matters as we level up in age and fitness.Paid subscribers enjoy printable resources and my recipe for Homemade Seitan, so join the club today!In this episode,* I explain why “lean protein” really means plants.* I show why plant protein being “less concentrated” is actually a feature, not a bug.* I share why the protein-to-calorie ratio is such a helpful measurement, especially if your goal is fat loss and muscle gain.* I focus on plant foods that are both protein-rich and practical to eat (spoiler: I'm not eating 5 tablespoons of spirulina a day).* I parse out the 4 categories of protein-rich plant foods:*

In this compilation, Dr. Gabrielle Lyon brings together the top minds in health and fitness to deliver the ultimate guide to fat loss.

The globalist-captured RDA recommends a milligram or less of iodine a day. The correct dose is 25 to several hundred milligrams daily.Support the show

I support some amazing Superhero's raising funds for the RDA! Glad I packed my wetsuit - swimming in a cold lake that was in the 2012 Olympics comes with it's challenges!

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

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.

MK and Courtney are back from a summer off, and they mostly remember how to podcast. Lucky for you all, we've got quite the RDA journey to help us through.

For decades, U.S. dietary guidelines have linked “protein” with animal products. Even as the visuals evolved—from the “Basic Four” to the Food Pyramid to MyPlate—the message stuck: protein means meat.But protein isn't a food group at all. It's a macronutrient made of amino acids—the building blocks your body uses to build muscle, repair tissue, produce enzymes and hormones, and support immune health. And here's the thing: your body doesn't care if those amino acids come from lentils or chicken. They're identical at the molecular level.So why does animal protein still get the reputation for being “better”? And what does the science actually say about how much protein we need—and from what sources?In this episode, I talk about:* How U.S. dietary guidelines shaped our view of protein — and why many still think “protein” means “meat”* How protein functions in the body, what amino acids are, and why plant and animal amino acids are identical* Why the RDA for protein is a minimum, not necessarily optimal, especially as we age or increase activity* What top plant-based nutrition experts recommend for daily protein intake and how it compares to the RDA* How protein needs change with age, activity level, and life stage* Why I've doubled my own protein intake — and the results I've seenWhether you're in your 20s or your 80s, plant-based or not, active or just getting started, understanding protein is key to thriving long-term. And yes, you can do it 100% with plants.

The weather may not have been conducive to a productive practice, but that's why Washington has an indoor facility. So the Huskies moved inside on Thursday to the Dempsey to take part in Day 7 of fall camp. And while the first part of practice was very quiet and business-like, as soon as the horn sounded for that first team scrimmage period, the intensity went way up, as did the hitting. The guys from Dawgman.com - Kim Grinolds, Chris Fetters, and Scott Eklund - broke down what they saw during a day where both the offense and defense got their licks in during a day where more scrimmaging took place than during the previous days. To start, the guys naturally went to the offensive side of the ball, focusing first on the offensive line. True frosh John Mills is getting more time at the ones and the battle between him and Paki Finau has truly been joined. There was some really good work by the tight ends today, especially USC transfer Kade Eldridge, and with Marcus Harris, Kevin Green, and Raiden Vines-Bright not available there were a couple receivers that really took advantage of their turns, namely Dezmen Roebuck and Justice Williams. After a quick break the guys then focus their attentions toward the defense. And who else could it be but freshman safety Rylon Dillard-Allen? Batman once again made waves by getting into it with another offensive lineman, this time it was Drew Azzopardi, after RDA unceremoniously dumped one of the receivers to the turf. He has shown to play on that razor's edge for a few days now, and even the NFL scouts on hand were paying attention to it. Another defensive back that stood out was NAU transfer Alex McLaughlin, whose day was highlighted by a TFL on Adam Mohammed and a pick where he had to display his cat-quick reflexes to bring in a pass that was wildly deflected to the middle of the field. Michigan transfer Hayden Moore moved from ILB to EDGE during spring and he's really starting to emerge as a player the coaches want a good look at this fall. With Zach Durfee unavailable today for some reason, it allowed Moore even more turns to prove his worth and he's definitely taking advantage of his opportunities. The guys also saw live punting for the first time all camp and they talked a little bit about what they saw from Oregon transfer Luke Dunne, what he's being asked to do by Special Teams Coordinator Chris Petrilli, and how well he pulled it off. Before the guys' final thoughts, Kim talked a bit about hoops, as the men had another media day with Danny Sprinkle, Quimari Peterson, Jacob Ognacevic, and Franck Kepnang. He relayed some of the things Sprinkle talked about (full quotes will be available later tonight), and he also provided a funny anecdote about Peterson and a potential new nickname.

The guys from Dawgman.com - Kim Grinolds, Chris Fetters, and Scott Eklund - were on hand Tuesday morning to watch the Washington Huskies go through their first full pads practice of fall camp, and it was a long one, well over two-and-a-half hours long. Talk started, as it always does, with the offensive side of the ball, and there were definitely some changes with the full pads coming on. John Mills ramped up his work at the one left guard spot (Paki Finau is still the number one LG), while true freshmen like Dezmen Roebuck and Quaid Carr continued to get more and more turns during the substantial team scrimmage periods that took place. After a quick break the talk turned to the defensive side of the ball, and it was once again true frosh safety Rylon Dillard-Allen that generated most of the conversation. He was involved in the first major dust-up of camp, one that initially took place between him and left tackle Carver Willis after Willis took exception to RDA planting receiver Kevin Green to the turf. When Green got up he made a beeline right toward RDA and the gloves were literally off, as were the helmets. It only took a few seconds for cooler heads to prevail, but considering Green and Dillard-Allen had a bit of a skirmish the day before it wasn't necessarily surprising that things might boil over once the two were in full pads. The guys then talked about the defensive line, guys getting some more run, and also the other true freshmen that are getting more and more turns like cornerback Dylan Robinson, linebacker Donovan Robinson, and EDGE Devin Hyde.

Send us a textWhat happens when men are finally given permission to explore their full emotional range? In this eye-opening conversation that concludes episode 212 with Lee Povey, we delve into the hidden emotional landscapes that many men navigate alone, often without the tools or language to understand their experiences.The discussion challenges fundamental misconceptions about emotions, particularly for men. "There is no negative emotion," Lee explains. "An emotion is just telling you about your experience." This perspective invites listeners to reconsider how we view feelings like anger, fear, or sadness – not as weaknesses to overcome, but as valuable information about our lived experiences.We explore the fascinating paradox of modern masculinity: men are simultaneously criticized for expressing certain emotions while being told others are unacceptable. This creates an impossible situation where many men retreat behind emotional walls, protecting vulnerability with anger or detachment. The conversation delves into how evolutionary responses to perceived threats continue to shape male behavior in ways that no longer serve us in contemporary society.The transformative power of men's groups emerges as a beacon of hope throughout our discussion. These spaces provide opportunities for men to be truly seen and understood, often for the first time. As Lee shares from his extensive experience facilitating these groups, "When men can come to a group and let go of that mask... it can be easier for them to connect." The simple recognition that one's struggles aren't unique can be profoundly healing.Whether you're a man seeking better understanding of your emotional life, someone who loves a man struggling with connection, or simply curious about how emotional intelligence develops across genders, this conversation offers valuable insights.

Send us a textTurning fifty isn't just about crossing an age threshold—it's about recognizing the human connections that build resilience throughout a lifetime. In this deeply personal episode, therapist Steve Bisson reflects on the relationships that have shaped his capacity for strength, growth, and recovery across five decades.Steve begins by honoring his parents, whose contrasting yet complementary influences established his foundation. His father, who lacked a paternal role model yet became an exceptional dad himself, taught Steve about honesty and critical thinking. His mother—a glass-ceiling breaker before the term existed—demonstrated determination through her 47-year career and instilled feminist principles that continue to guide Steve's professional approach. Together, they exemplified loyalty, work ethic, and perseverance that became cornerstones of his resilience framework.The episode takes listeners through Steve's "Three Musketeers" friendship with Joce and Frank—a bond spanning 38 years that has weathered countless challenges. Through emotional storytelling, Steve reveals how these lifelong connections, along with other key friendships, professional relationships, and even his therapy clients, have collectively taught him different aspects of resilience. Perhaps most touching is his tribute to his teenage daughters, who continue to teach him patience, emotional expression, and growth even as they navigate their own challenges.Steve's resilience journey illuminates how our capacity to overcome obstacles isn't built in isolation but through meaningful connections that sustain us. Whether you're approaching a milestone birthday, reflecting on your support network, or simply curious about the human factors behind emotional strength, this episode offers valuable insights into how relationships shape our ability to navigate life's inevitable challenges.

Originally developed to treat diabetes, GLP-1 agonists have been found to suppress appetite and reduce calorie intake, fueling their growing popularity as obesity drugs. According to JP Morgan, the total number of GLP-1 users in the US may reach 30m by 2030, or around 9% of the population. But what is the opportunity for the consumer health industry? According to Kerry Group's scientific director Mathieu Millette, there are two main areas that companies could target. Firstly, there are the pre-and post-GLP phases, when consumers may want natural GLP-1 alternatives to help them lose weight or maintain the weight loss achieved on the drug. And secondly, during use, consumer health products can help address some of the unwanted side-effects of GLP-1s, for example gastrointestinal issues. Of course, as Millette tells HBW insight in this episode of the Over the Counter podcast, marketers also need to be mindful of the regulatory environment around health claims, especially in the EU. Timestamps 2:20 – Introductions 3:30 – What are GLP-1 agonists? 8:50 – What's the opportunity for consumer health companies? 16:00 – Is this a European trend as well? 17:40 – Health claims: the regulatory environment 25:00 – Natural GLP-1 alternatives Guest Bio Mathieu Millette is scientific director for Bio-K Plus International and RDA director for digestive health within Kerry Group's proactive health division. Millette leads a team of talented scientists dedicated to elucidating the mechanisms of action of probiotics and to understanding the interactions between beneficial microorganisms, the gut microbiome, and the gastrointestinal tract. Millette is also associate professor at INRS-IAF, a member of the Association of Microbiologists of Quebec and is highly involved with the International Probiotic Association.

Send us a textWhat does authentic masculinity look like in a world that teaches boys to hide their emotions from an early age? Leadership coach Lee Povey takes us on his transformative journey from needing to be the hero in every relationship to discovering the profound power of vulnerability.Growing up with a narcissistic father who saw Lee's achievements only as extensions of himself left him with a deep question that persists even at 52 years old: what does it really mean to be a man? His search led him to therapy and men's groups where he discovered what had been missing—the ability to be seen, heard, and guided by older men who accepted him fully.This conversation takes a dramatic turn when Lee reveals how a devastating cycling accident in 2010 forced him to confront his inability to ask for help. "I wanted to be always okay and I wanted you to be not okay so I could save you," he shares, describing how this "hero complex" had sabotaged his relationships and limited his growth. The vulnerability required during his recovery ultimately transformed every aspect of his life.Both Steve and Lee explore why men struggle with emotional expression, introducing practical approaches for reclaiming our full emotional range. Lee's "cookie jar" analogy brilliantly illustrates how we lose capacity for feedback when we experience too much criticism without sufficient acknowledgment. The key to effective men's groups? Creating judgment-free spaces where men can first be heard before receiving guidance.Whether you work with men professionally or are simply interested in developing greater emotional intelligence, this episode offers profound insights into creating spaces where vulnerability becomes strength. As Steve powerfully states, "If you ever make fun of my vulnerability, you're the asshole, not me."Join us to discover how embracing our full humanity—including the emotions we've been taught to suppress—leads to more authentic connections, better leadership, and greater resilience in the face of life's challenges.This discussion will continue on episode 215!To connect with Lee, go to his website at www.leepovey.comFreed.ai: We'll Do Your SOAP Notes!Freed AI converts conversations into SOAP note.Use code Steve50 for $50 off the 1st month!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

Send us a textGordon Brewer, a licensed marriage and family therapist with over 25 years of experience, joins Steve to unpack the complex relationship between trauma, grief, and emotional resilience in the first responder community. Their conversation touches on a critical but often overlooked barrier to mental health care—the fear that therapists can't handle the horrific realities first responders face daily."Sometimes people forget about how trauma manifests in different ways," Gordon explains, sharing how his background as a funeral director gave him unique insights into grief processing. Both experts explore why first responders might test their therapists by sharing graphic details, essentially asking: "Can you handle my reality?"The discussion delves into the subtle yet important distinctions between grief and trauma. For first responders who regularly encounter death, these experiences can trigger complex emotional responses, especially when they've previously tried to help someone who ultimately died. This creates layers of grief beyond the immediate situation—grief for what couldn't be prevented and the weight of perceived failure.A fascinating segment explores emotional intelligence within first responder culture. "Anger is acceptable, happiness is acceptable, the rest of it not so much," Steve notes, highlighting how limited emotional expression can prevent proper processing. Gordon adds that understanding your internal emotional landscape doesn't require displaying vulnerability publicly, but acknowledging emotions privately is essential for preventing acute stress from becoming trauma.Drawing from Brené Brown's work, they explore how vulnerability forms the foundation of courage—a seeming paradox particularly relevant for first responders. "You cannot have courage without vulnerability," Gordon emphasizes. "Just because we do the job doesn't negate the fact that we had those feelings of fear."Perhaps most powerfully, they discuss how community support facilitates healing. Gordon shares personal insights from losing his wife to cancer, illustrating how simple presence often matters more than words. They note how first responder communities excel at immediate support but often disappear after a few weeks, leaving families to navigate ongoing grief alone.Join this authentic conversation that bridges professional expertise with personal experience, offering practical wisdom for anyone navigating trauma, supporting others through grief, or seeking to build greater emotional resilience in challenging circumstances.Freed.ai: We'll Do Your SOAP Notes!Freed AI converts conversations into SOAP note.Use code Steve50 for $50 off the 1st month!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

You've probably heard about the traditional forms of fasting including a 72 hour fast and intermittent fasting but have you heard about fasting mimicking? Through longevity research, our guest today has found a way for our bodies to reap the benefits that fasting provides without going through the pain and anguish a traditional fast typically comes with. Renee Fitton, MS, RDA is a longevity dietitian and Director of Education at Prolon. In this episode, we discuss the difference between metabolism and metabolic health, the process of fasting mimicking, who it's for and who it's not for, brain health essentials, and more!   Time Stamps:   (1:20) Renee's Background (2:40) Registered Dietitians vs Longevity Dietitians (6:35) Metabolism vs Metabolic Health (9:25) What Is Fasting Mimicking?

In this episode of Whole Body Health, Dr. JP Saleeby discusses the importance of vitamin A, its sources, different forms, health benefits, potential risks, and how to incorporate it effectively into your daily routine.Forms and Sources of vitamin A - vitamin A exists in two primary forms:1. Retinol – Found in animal-based foods such as oily fish, liver, eggs, cod liver oil, butter, and cheese.2. Carotenoids – Derived from plant-based foods like carrots, squash, papaya, tomatoes, red bell peppers, sweet potatoes, and dark leafy greens. Bright orange fruits and vegetables are typically rich in carotenoids.Health Benefits:
Vitamin A is critical for eye health and retinal function, for supporting the immune system, and for maintenance of skin and mucous membranes as well as for embryo development. Vitamin A helps prevent night blindness and cataracts, skin issues, a weakened immune system, premature aging, and lung disease, and can reduce effects of HIV/AIDS and measles.Potential Risks:
Excessive vitamin A intake can lead to toxicity. High doses, especially when combined with alcohol, may cause liver damage. Individuals with liver disease should consult a healthcare provider before supplementing with vitamin A.Recommended Dosage:
For adults, the recommended daily allowance (RDA) is 700–900 mcg of retinol equivalents (RE) per day. Vitamin A is considered safe when consumed in amounts less than 10,000 IU (or 3,000 mcg) daily. More information on the two forms of vitamin A and dosing can be found in this video.Learn more about 'Whole Body Health' here: https://flccc.net/wholebodyhealthDr. JP Saleeby | Carolina Holistic Medicine https://carolinaholisticmedicine.com/Dr. JP Saleeby's Substack | Yusuf's Substack https://jpsaleebymd.substack.com/The Independent Medical Alliance (formerly FLCCC) is a healthcare nonprofit on a mission to restore trust, integrity, and the doctor-patient relationship.

Send us a textWhat happens when the strongest among us need support? In this powerful conversation, Elizabeth Ecklund takes us on an extraordinary journey from fighting fires in Antarctica to fighting stigma in mental health. As someone with 15 years of experience spanning firefighting, emergency medical services, and nursing, Elizabeth brings a rare perspective to the critical conversation about first responder mental health.The stigma surrounding mental health in emergency services creates a dangerous paradox: those who routinely face trauma are often the least likely to seek help. Elizabeth articulates this challenge with striking clarity, drawing from her own experiences to illuminate why cultural competency matters so deeply when providing therapy to first responders. "They don't know how to deal with their grief," she explains, highlighting how traditional coping mechanisms within emergency services—dark humor, emotional detachment, peer discussions—often fall short of addressing cumulative trauma.Her adventures at the South Pole provide not just fascinating stories—from living with three twenty-somethings in cramped quarters to experiencing oxygen saturation levels of 82% at 12,000 feet elevation—but metaphors for resilience in extreme conditions. Like the South Pole's challenging environment, the mental landscape of emergency work requires specialized knowledge and adaptation strategies that standard approaches may miss.Through MindForge Therapy Group, Elizabeth has created a sanctuary where first responders can speak freely without fear of judgment or misunderstanding. Her approach acknowledges the unique needs of this population, incorporating humor and practical interventions that "don't feel like therapy." Most importantly, she recognizes that addressing these mental health needs impacts not just individual well-being but team safety, family relationships, and ultimately, the communities these heroes serve.Whether you're a first responder seeking understanding, a mental health professional wanting to better serve this population, or simply someone fascinated by human resilience in extraordinary circumstances, this conversation offers valuable insights into bridging the gap between emergency services and effective mental health support.

La bibliothèque nationale de Guinée connaît une nouvelle vie après des années de difficultés. Située à proximité du lycée de Donka, à Conakry, elle reste cependant méconnue, malgré l'intérêt des fonds qu'elle héberge. Elle dispose notamment d'une riche documentation concernant la période coloniale et la Première République de Sékou Touré. Visite guidée de la BNG, la plus ancienne institution de recherche et de documentation De notre correspondant à Conakry, Les escaliers de la bibliothèque montés, Syra Cissé, responsable de la documentation, ouvre la porte d'une grande pièce : « Nous sommes dans la deuxième salle de lecture, située au deuxième étage de la bibliothèque. Ici sont disposés les anciens journaux de l'indépendance. »Parmi les journaux rangés sur les étagères, ceux de la Première République : Horoya, le grand quotidien national du parti-État. Mais aussi des titres moins connus comme la Gine Ginè, qui signifie « femme guinéenne », « Giné » voulant dire « femme » en langue soussou : « La Gine Ginè, c'est le journal féminin de l'époque, qui paraissait quotidienne, qui parlait des femmes, des premières dames, des femmes de Guinée et d'ailleurs. »Parmi les archives de presse figurent également des titres plus anciens, datant des années 1950, comme Le Réveil, le journal du Rassemblement démocratique africain, le RDA, le grand parti de la décolonisation. Daouda Tamsir Niane, le directeur de la BNG, feuillète un numéro contenant un article de Sékou Touré, alors chef de la branche guinéenne du RDA.C'est l'ancienneté de la bibliothèque qui fait la qualité de ses fonds, explique le directeur : « La bibliothèque nationale est la plus ancienne institution de recherche et de documentation en République de Guinée. Elle existe depuis 1944, elle a été créée sous la colonisation. C'était l'antenne de l'Ifan, l'Institut français d'Afrique noire, devenu Institut fondamental d'Afrique Noire, basé à l'université de Dakar. »Numériser les documents de la BNGAprès une série de réformes, elle est devenue l'actuelle BNGDaouda Tamsir Niane veut en valoriser les fonds anciens : « À notre avis, aujourd'hui, les bibliothèques évoluent vers les médiathèques. De plus en plus de dématérialisation et de numérisation se font. Notre grand projet aujourd'hui, c'est de numériser les documents de la bibliothèque nationale. »Parmi les documents à numériser, l'important fonds de mémoires de fin d'études. Ils portent sur des sujets aussi divers que l'exploitation minière ou la grammaire de la langue maninka. Syra Cissé tire un volume d'une étagère : « Vous avez là un mémoire de fin d'études de la faculté des sciences sociales, qui a pour thème : "Amilcar Cabral, théoricien et praticien de lutte de libération nationale". » Ce mémoire a été soutenu en 1978, cinq ans après l'assassinat en plein Conakry du héros de l'indépendance de la Guinée-Bissau.Un autre grand combat mené par le directeur est de faire respecter le dépôt légal par les maisons d'édition guinéennes pour valoriser, aussi, le patrimoine contemporain.À lire aussiConakry, capitale mondiale du livre: quel avenir pour le numérique en Guinée?

Let's unpack something most midlife women are totally missing – protein for Menopause Hormone Support. Are you feeling moody, low-energy, or constantly craving carbs in midlife? It might not just be your hormones—it could be your protein intake… and its effect on your hormones.  In today's episode, know how protein connects hormones and why your daily meals might be the hormonal tune-up you didn't know you needed. Cortisol & Protein: The Stress-Balance Dance Cortisol levels increase in response to low blood sugar or stress, which are common when meals are high-carb and low-protein. A high-protein diet blunts cortisol spikes post-meal and improves the body's stress response.   Insulin: Protein's Role in Glucose Control Protein stimulates insulin—but in a modulated way that helps with blood sugar stability, not spikes. In midlife and beyond, protein helps preserve insulin sensitivity, especially when combined with resistance training.   Ghrelin & Leptin: Protein vs. Cravings Ghrelin = your hunger hormone. Protein is the most effective macronutrient at suppressing ghrelin. Leptin = satiety hormone. Protein helps regulate leptin sensitivity over time. The Protein theory goes that if the body doesn't get enough protein it will message you it wants more. The problem is the message is not clear. It's just a hunger signal. You're left to figure it out or deal with the tempting cookies, cakes, and chocolate hidden in the icebox.    Estrogen: From Muscle Protector to MIA Estrogen is an anabolic hormone—it supports muscle maintenance, insulin sensitivity, and metabolic efficiency. As estrogen declines in perimenopause and menopause, its natural support of muscle protein synthesis (MPS) disappears. With estrogen no longer stimulating MPS, women must now rely on two primary tools to stimulate it: Resistance training Adequate high-quality protein (especially leucine-rich) “Estrogen enhances the anabolic response of skeletal muscle to both feeding and resistance exercise, and its loss results in anabolic resistance.”   More Truths About Protein for Menopause Hormone Support Muscle Protein Synthesis declines with age—and even more so without estrogen.  This is why RDA-level protein (0.8g/kg) is not sufficient in midlife - a statement agreed on by Registered Dietitians, longevity and geriatric experts alike.  Experts (ISSN) recommend ≥1.6–2.2g/kg of body weight for active women in midlife to maintain muscle, metabolism, and hormonal resilience.   The Anabolic vs. Catabolic Hormone Framework Anabolic Hormones = Build & Repair These are hormones that stimulate tissue growth and regeneration: Testosterone – promotes muscle growth, strength, libido Growth Hormone (GH) – supports repair, recovery, and fat metabolism Estrogen – helps preserve lean mass, regulates insulin sensitivity Insulin – can be anabolic by shuttling nutrients into cells, especially post-exercise Protein intake supports all of these by providing the amino acid building blocks needed for anabolic activity. Catabolic Hormones = Break DownThese are hormones that promote the breakdown of muscle, tissue, and energy stores: Cortisol – breaks down muscle for glucose during stress Epinephrine/Norepinephrine – mobilize energy in fight-or-flight Chronically elevated catabolic hormones + low protein = muscle loss, cravings, fatigue. Fat Storage Insulin isn't actually a catabolic hormone but it does increase fat storage. You can't be burning fat if insulin is high, as is true for many women. Focusing on boosting the anabolic hormones is the game-changer.    Other Episodes You Might Like: Previous Episode - Can We Just Stop the Self Sabotage to Feel Your Best Ever  Next Episode - How and Why to Consider Meditation in Menopause More Like This - Where Protein Recommendations for Women Come From?   Resources:  This episode is brought to you by Flipping 50 Longevity Pro Protein & Fiber, the simplest ingredient, cleanest, third-party-tested protein powder formulated specifically for midlife metabolism.

Today, we're diving into one of the most misunderstood, wrongly demonized, and yet most important pieces of your nutrition strategy: PROTEIN.We're going deep into:Why so many people still believe protein is dangerous — especially for your kidneysWhere these outdated beliefs came fromThe role of protein in muscle gain, fat loss, aging, and long-term healthWhy the RDA is setting you up for failureWhat YOU can do today to get the benefits of a high-protein lifestyleResources:1. High-Protein Diets and Kidney Function in Healthy Adults:Study: A Systematic Review of Renal Health in Healthy Individuals Consuming High Protein DietsFindings: This review analyzed multiple randomized controlled trials and found that increased protein intake led to higher glomerular filtration rates (GFR), all within normal kidney function ranges. The data suggest that higher protein consumption does not adversely affect kidney health in healthy adults. ​Study: Effect of a High-Protein Diet on Kidney Function in Healthy Adults: Results from the OmniHeart TrialFindings: This study concluded that a healthy diet rich in protein increased estimated GFR. However, it noted that the long-term effects of high-protein diets on kidney health remain uncertain.2. Protein Intake and Sarcopenia (Muscle Loss) in Older Adults:Study: Protein Intake and Sarcopenia in Older Adults: A Systematic Review and Meta-AnalysisFindings: The meta-analysis indicated that older adults with sarcopenia consumed significantly less protein than their non-sarcopenic peers, suggesting that inadequate protein intake may be associated with muscle loss in the elderly. ​Study: Role of Dietary Protein in the Sarcopenia of AgingFindings: The study suggests that moderately increasing daily protein intake beyond 0.8 g/kg/day may enhance muscle protein anabolism, potentially mitigating age-related muscle loss. ​Protein & Kidney Health in Healthy IndividualsSystematic Review: High Protein Diets & Renal FunctionConclusion: No negative effects on kidney function in healthy adults.

This 8-week randomized controlled trial looked at how eating either high or low protein influenced muscle gain, fat gain, and strength in women training for physique competition. Despite eating more calories, the high-protein group experienced a shocking amount of muscle gain and fat loss. The findings challenge conventional bulking and cutting wisdom and highlight the power of protein for female body recomposition.

Join Chris Newport, functional sports nutritionist, to discuss magnesium. It's a critical mineral involved in over 300 biochemical reactions, yet 50-60% of both the general population and endurance athletes fail to consume adequate amounts through diet alone.Here's what we review:• What percentage of people actually get the RDA for magnesium• How endurance training decreases magnesium levels in red blood cells• Why heavy sweaters may need to increase magnesium intake • Common food sources • Different types of magnesium supplements offer varying benefits, including oxide, citrate, glycinate, malate, l-threonate and more• Benefits of magnesium, like improved sleep, reduced muscle cramps, decreased inflammation, better cardiovascular health, and mood enhancement• Why starting with a certain dose is importantLearn more about magnesium and precision genetic nutrition in our Longevity Program at theenduranceedge.com/longevity or join our upcoming Fueling and Hydration Bootcamp by getting on the waitlist at theenduranceedge.com/fuelingbootcamp.

This episode is brought to you by ⁠⁠The Primal Tallow Balm.⁠⁠ Protein FREE GUIDE: https://www.theprimal.com/lab/eat-more-protein-lose-weight-faster-amount-needed-ideal-timing-qualityThis episode features Dr Donald Layman, a PHD researcher and expert in protein metabolism and metabolic health. Dr Layman has spent decades researching the role of protein in metabolic health, including the role of leucine in muscle protein synthesis. This episode will be your ultimate protein guide. Dr Layman will discuss why protein is so important, relating to muscle health, aging, disease prevention, and optimal body composition, namely fat loss. Up to 45% of people do not consume enough protein daily, which is likely mainly in women, and the RDA amount of 0.8kg is far too low for optimal health. Dr Layman will discuss how much protein you need per day for optimal muscle and cellular health, why the timing of protein matters, and the quality of protein as we age.This episode is important for anyone who wants to optimise their health through adequate protein consumption. You will learn exactly how much you need to eat, the best sources of protein, the role of leucine, and exercise protocols to increase strength.

We've been told that protein is the ultimate health hack — that we need to hit a specific number of grams each day or risk losing muscle, energy, or progress. But what if this hyper-focus on protein is actually pulling us away from real nourishment? In this episode, Dr. Connie breaks down the science behind protein needs — separating fact from fitness-industry fiction. You'll learn: What the RDA actually means (and why it's often misunderstood) How much protein is enough — and when it's too much The impact of protein obsession on gut health, mindset, and true well-being Why intuitive, whole-food-based eating is a more sustainable and empowering approach If you're tired of tracking macros, overthinking meals, or feeling anxious about getting “enough,” this episode will help you reclaim clarity and reconnect with your body's natural wisdom.

Pour vous abonner et écouter l'émission en une fois, sans publicité : https://m.audiomeans.fr/s/S-tavkjvmo Après la Seconde Guerre mondiale, l'Allemagne est un pays en ruines, divisé en quatre zones d'occupation sous le contrôle des vainqueurs. Mais très vite, ce qui devait être une reconstruction pacifique se transforme en un affrontement idéologique entre l'Est et l'Ouest. D'un côté, les Soviétiques imposent une soviétisation radicale, de l'autre, les Occidentaux favorisent le capitalisme et la démocratie.Berlin devient le symbole de cette fracture, jusqu'à l'édification du Mur en 1961… et sa chute en 1989. Comment cette division s'est-elle mise en place ? Quels étaient les enjeux politiques et économiques de cette occupation ? Comment les Allemands ont-ils vécu ces décennies sous influence étrangère ? Plongez dans l'histoire captivante de l'Allemagne occupée, une période qui a façonné le monde moderne !

You may be wondering, do I need to take vitamins? Your body needs around 180 nutrients, and it's often difficult to satisfy these requirements, especially for vitamin D, magnesium, zinc, and vitamin B3. You can not always identify nutrient deficiencies in the blood. Low stomach acid interferes with vitamin and mineral absorption. If you have low stomach acid, you might also experience problems breaking down food with vitamin B12. Indigestion, heartburn, and SIBO are common symptoms of low stomach acid. Synthetic vitamins aren't the same as natural ones. Do not take synthetic vitamin B12 or B9! Some nutrients need other nutrients to function properly, so taking them in isolated forms rather than a complex can cause problems. Many vitamins contain fillers like maltodextrin that compete for nutrients such as vitamin C. Vitamin B1 is essential for breaking down sugar and carbs, so when you consume maltodextrin, it's easy to become deficient. Poor diet could be a reason why vitamins aren't working for you. If you're diabetic, prediabetic, or have insulin resistance, vitamin absorption will be greatly inhibited. Fix this by going on a low-carb diet. Poor-quality supplements often contain calcium carbonate, which is limestone! Multivitamins with calcium and magnesium are poorly absorbed because these two minerals compete for absorption. Vitamin effectiveness is greatly influenced by dosage. The RDA for vitamin D3 is only 600 IU, but you need around 10,000 IU daily. If you have a chronic illness, you need therapeutic doses of vitamins, not small amounts. Always pay attention to the milligram dosage when choosing a supplement! Taking too little of a supplement significantly reduces vitamin absorption and effectiveness. Bruce Hollis Interview Video: ▶️ • Your Body Is BEGGING For Vitamin D!!

Discover my premium podcast, The Aliquot Download my “How to Train According to the Experts” guide Protein is far more than a building block for muscle—it's essential for metabolic health, insulin sensitivity, and preventing conditions like type 2 diabetes and sarcopenia. But how much do we truly need? And could too much protein, especially from meat, actually be harmful? This episode challenges the conventional RDA of 0.8 g/kg, presenting research that supports higher intakes of 1.2–2 g/kg for maintaining muscle, improving body composition, and promoting longevity. We also confront myths around protein timing and the so-called "anabolic window.” Lastly, we address concerns about protein's links to cancer, heart disease, and kidney function, showing how exercise can redirect growth factors like IGF-1 to promote repair while mitigating risks.  Timestamps: (00:00) Download my “How to Train” guide (00:51) Introduction (03:32) Why muscle matters (05:57) Why do we lose muscle?
