3 Oreos and 1/2 an Avocado join Luis on the podcast today. Their calories are the same, but how each affects our glucose levels is very different. Refined carbs spike glucose, which increases insulin, and puts us into fat storage mode.Another factor to weight is stress and trauma, especially when in functional freeze, where we produce adrenaline, but do not burn it off with movement.

Not all “civil” behavior is harmless. Some actions, cloaked in sophistication or authority, can be far more destructive than overtly crude ones. From Donald Trump's press interactions to the actions of journalists, university leaders, and political officials, Victor Davis Hanson distinguishes between crass and refined crudity—showing how the latter misleads the public under the guise of authority or expertise—on today's episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.” “No need to call Jasmine Crockett a low-IQ person or a reporter dumb or stupid or fatty. And I would call that crass crudity. And it's something that Trump does and probably should not do, and people have probably reminded him of that. But there's another type of crudity, I would call that crudity refined crudity. Crass crudity is openly overt, transparent, and condemned. But it's also rhetorical. It doesn't affect policies. It's the ways one reacts to criticism in Trump's case. But what is refined crudity? I wanna tell you, give you some examples, very different examples of what I would call refined crudity.” (0:00) Introduction (0:20) Trump's Crass Crudity (1:13) Refined Crudity in Media (2:16) Refined Crudity in Academia (3:59) Refined Crudity in Law and Politics (5:12) Refined Crudity in Military Leadership (8:04) Conclusion We need your help to ensure The Daily Signal can continue to counter the liberal media's lies with the truth.

Can a Christian truly rejoice while grieving?In this exegetical sermon from 1 Peter 1:6–9, we explore the tension every believer feels but rarely knows how to explain—joy and sorrow existing at the same time. Peter writes to suffering saints and reminds them that present trials do not cancel salvation; they confirm it.Building on the future hope of 1 Peter 1:3–5, this passage turns our attention to present-day adversity: grief that is real, trials that are necessary, and a faith that is being tested like gold in a refining fire. These trials are not random, nor cruel—they are purposeful, measured, and governed by a Refiner who knows exactly when to pull the silver from the flame.This message walks verse by verse through how:Christians can rejoice and grieve without contradictionTrials test faith, not to destroy it, but to prove it genuineFaith is more precious than gold, because everything else perishesTrusting God in suffering brings Him pleasure and leads to future gloryBelieving without seeing produces an abiding, inexpressible joySalvation is not only future—it is being received even nowFrom the forge of suffering to the revelation of Jesus Christ, this sermon reminds weary believers that their trials are temporary, their salvation is secure, and their joy—though sometimes tear-stained—is filled with glory.If you are walking through hardship and wondering what God is doing, this message invites you to see your suffering through the lens of a living hope, a refining faith, and a salvation already at work.
Tonight, we talk about grounding and understand the energy when connecting to spirit especially at a paranormal investigation.
Explore the pathway to true victory by learning the power of identification and confrontation. This empowering moment challenges you to recognize what stands in your way, face it with intention, and position obstacles for defeat. Victory doesn't happen by chance—it begins with clarity, courage, and deliberate action.CONNECT WITH CT JOHNSON

It's been a busy year for ISO Standards, with that set to ramp up in 2026 thanks to upcoming Standard transitions. Before we dive into a new year, we'd like to take a step back and highlight some of the key ISO milestones from 2025. In this episode, Steph Churchman, Communications Manager at Blackmores, looks back at the major Standard updates from 2025, including changes to existing Standards, new ISO's published and key upcoming changes you need to be aware of for 2026. You'll learn · What ISO Standards have been updated in 2025? · What new ISO Standards were published in 2025? · What Standards are due to be published in 2026? · What ISO transitions do you need to be aware of in 2026? Resources · Isologyhub In this episode, we talk about: [02:05] Episode Summary – Steph reviews major ISO Standard updates from 2025, including changes to existing ISO Standards, new Standards published and what you need to know going into 2026. [02:34] What ISO Standards have been updated in 2025?: ISO 27701:2025: This is the Standard for Privacy Information Management and it recently received an update in October 2025. Key updates to this Standard include: · This is now a stand-alone Standard and can be implemented without an existing ISO 27001 ISMS in place. · The addition of further guidance for data processors and controllers. · Provides greater clarity on managing personal data within AI and digital ecosystems · More focus on organisational leadership involvement. · The update now aligns ISO 27701 more closely with global regulations such as GDPR, CCPA and LGPD. ISO 37001:2025, the Standard for Anti-bribery. This one was well overdue an update, with its last version being 2016! It's update arrived on 2nd Feb 2025, and included: - · Text harmonisation with the other ISO 37000 family of Standards, such as ISO 37301 (compliance management systems), ISO 37000 (governance of organisations) and ISO 37008 (internal investigations of organisations) to ensure consistency and easier integration. · The latest version now formally introduces the concept of anti-bribery culture and emphasises its importance for the effectiveness of the management system. · A greater emphasis on the role of top management and their involvement in overseeing the management system. · A new requirement has been added for awareness and training as fundamental asset for management system results. · It also receives the added climate change amendment, which many ISO's already embedded back in 2024 – learn more about that here. · And lastly, there's more comprehensive definitions of conflict-of-interest as well as procedures to raise awareness on reporting potential and actual conflicts. ISO 50002, the standard for energy audits. This isn't a certifiable standard, but rather a guidance document to support the energy management standard ISO 50001. The recent update has now split this Standard into 3 parts: · ISO 50002 part 1: General requirements with guidance for use. · ISO 50002 part 2: Guidance for conducting an energy audit in buildings. · ISO 50002 part 3: Guidance for conducting an energy audit in processes Most of the revisions focused on strengthening and adding further clarification to energy auditing principles such as Competency, Confidentiality, Objectivity, access to equipment, resources and information, Evidence-based approach and Risk-based approach Lastly, this update also clearly specifies the requirements for energy auditor competence. [07:10] What new ISO Standards were published in 2025? ISO 42006 - Requirements for bodies providing audit and certification of artificial intelligence management systems. This is a guidance Standard that actually relates to certification bodies rather than businesses choosing to implement ISO 42001. It builds on ISO 17021-1 and ensures that certification bodies operate with the competence and rigour necessary to assess organisations developing, deploying or offering AI systems. While one that you as a business may not have to worry about, it's a positive addition to the growing ISO 42000 family of Standards, which are currently the only global frameworks for best practice for AI Management. ISO 17298 Biodiversity - Considering biodiversity in the strategy and operations of organizations. ISO 17298 ultimately aims to help organizations of all types and sizes understand how they depend on and impact nature – and take concrete action to address it. It includes guidance to help you: · Understand your biodiversity impacts, dependencies and risks · Identify opportunities for green growth and nature-positive finance · And develop and implement a credible biodiversity action plan [09:45] What new ISO Standards are due to be published in 2026? ISO 53001 management system requirements for the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Many businesses have already done the hard work behind aligning their ESG activities with the UN SDG's, and will soon be able to benefit from certification to an internationally recognised Standard to help manage and improve their performance against those SDG goals. The Standard provides a framework for an SDG management system that will: · Enhance the organization's SDG performance. · Fulfil compliance obligations. · Achieve selected SDG objectives. · Create trust and confidence to relevant existing and future stakeholders If you wanted to get a head-start, the guidance document ISO 53002: Guidelines for contributing to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals is available to download for free right now. ISO 14060: Net Zero Aligned Organisations. This Standard details requirements for how any type of organization can demonstrate that their net zero strategy is achievable, and that they are making credible and verifiable progress towards contributing to global net zero in line with the Paris Agreement. There are a lot of country specific legislation and regulations now in effect, or soon to be in effect, but there is a lack of clarity around what it actually means to be Net Zero. This is where ISO 14060 comes in, to create a globally accepted definition of what it means for an organisation to be net zero. In addition, this Standard will also: · Define what constitutes a credible net zero strategy at an organisational level · Establish how targets should be set, measured and delivered · Require organisations to align with the goals of the Paris Agreement · Build on existing ISO standards such as ISO 14064 for GHG verification and ISO 14068-1 for Carbon Neutrality · Have a focus on organisational claims, not product or event-level claims · And lastly it will be globally applicable and adaptable across sectors. [12:50] What ISO Standard updates do you need to be aware of for 2026?: The anticipated update to the leading environmental management system Standard, ISO 14001, is expected to be published in Q1 of 2026. It doesn't appear to have many major changes, but rather just further guidance and clarification in a few areas, including: · Modernised terminology and harmonised structure that aligns with other ISO Standards · Stronger focus on environmental conditions · Clearer EMS scope with life-cycle perspective · Again, we see a greater focus on leadership accountability · Refined risk-based planning · Introduction of a new change-management clause · Extended operational control to suppliers · Restructured management review · And an expanded Annex A for explanatory notes ISO 9001 is also due a revision. It was expected out around a similar time as ISO 14001, but following its public comment round, it's gone back under revision to make more changes after that feedback. As a result, this has pushed the expected publication date to either Q3 or possibly even Q4 of 2026. Now despite it going back into revision following feedback, the changes are still expected to be minor. Some of the expected changes include: · Impact of digital transformation – such as AI · Improved supply chain resilience · Proactive risk management and risk-based thinking · Quality culture and awareness of ethical behaviors · And increased attention to customer satisfaction Looking even further forward, ISO 45001 will also be up for revision soon, though that isn't expected to be published until 2027. We'll give you more details as soon as a draft version has been made available. All of these transitions will include a 3-year grace period, so there's no need to panic. Over the next year, we'll cover these changes in more detail, and will provide a variety of ISO Support options to help you manage and complete your ISO transitions. That's it from us for 2025! We look forward to brining you more ISO knowledge in 2026
Harmful fats can be incredibly damaging to your health! Find out about the most dangerous fat to remove from your diet immediately and which healthy fats to replace it with. Ditch the unhealthy fats today! 0:00 Introduction: The worst fats for health0:19 Unhealthy fats explained0:53 Monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats2:02 What are hydrogenated fats?3:11 Saturated fat3:50 Side effects of unhealthy fats 8:57 The most dangerous fat11:48 The benefits of healthy fatWhat are the unhealthiest types of fats? Let's take a look. Saturated fats are very stable and don't react much to oxygen because they don't have double bonds.Fats with double bonds are more unstable and react more readily with oxygen, resulting in increased oxidation. Monounsaturated fats have one double bond, while polyunsaturated fats have many double bonds. More double bonds mean more oxidation. Avocado and olive oil are monounsaturated fats, so they're moderately stable. Polyunsaturated fats, such as corn oil, sunflower oil, safflower oil, soy oil, canola oil, and cottonseed oil, contain many double bonds, so they're unstable and prone to significant oxidation. Hydrogenated oils are unsaturated fats that have been chemically turned into saturated fats. Saturated fats such as lard, tallow, and butter are solid at room temperature and are very stable. Although they are unsaturated fats, fish oil and cod liver oil have potent anti-inflammatory benefits and omega-3s, but can sometimes be rancid due to their instability. Be careful where you source them!Heat and light create toxic byproducts in unsaturated fats called aldehydes. These toxic compounds destroy your DNA, lodge in your cell membranes, and damage the insulin receptors on the surface of your cells. They can also make your cells stiff and fragile. For years, saturated fats have been demonized, and unsaturated fats have been recommended! This has also occurred with other foods, such as red meat and grains. Check out this comprehensive list, which ranges from the most harmful fats to the healthiest. Number 1 is the most dangerous! 1. Partially hydrogenated fat2. Hydrogenated fat3.

The trials we face are not rejection from God but His refining work, marking us as His beloved people who honor the name of Christ. With Pastor Kaleb Allen.
Pastor Matthew Dehnert joins Phil for Episode 34 of Living God's Truth.
The United States and Ukraine on Monday sought to narrow the gaps in a peace plan to end the war with Russia after agreeing to modify a U.S. proposal. Washington and Kyiv said in a joint statement that they had drafted a "refined peace framework" after talks in Geneva on Sunday.British Members of Parliament are questioning BBC Chair Samir Shah on Monday over the broadcaster's editorial policies in the wake of the controversy over its editing of President Donald Trump's Jan. 6, 2021, speech.
The United States and Ukraine say they've made progress on a revised peace plan during talks in Geneva over the weekend. The White House says the updated framework strengthens protections for Ukraine and keeps its sovereignty non-negotiable. Secretary of State Marco Rubio called the talks the most productive so far, though key issues remain.Operations at one of JFK International Airport's terminals have resumed following a systems failure that happened on Sunday, leaving travelers facing major delays. The outage happened at the beginning of a busy Thanksgiving travel week, with two possible winter storms also expected to hit parts of the United States. Heavy rain is expected in Texas and parts of the southwest this weekend. Forecasters are also warning of lake-effect snow and white-out conditions across western New York state.Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says Americans can expect substantial refunds in early 2026. He is also optimistic that the broader economy will avoid a recession despite the impact of the record government shutdown. Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett says real wages are up about $1,200 this year, and predicts 2026 could be a strong year for the economy.
Dr. Samuel Ramani, a Russia analyst and CEO of Pangea Geopolitical Risk, speaks to John Maytham about the ongoing talks to refine the United States-endorsed peace plan for Russia’s war in Ukraine. Afternoon Drive with John Maytham is the late afternoon show on CapeTalk. Presenter John Maytham is an actor and author-turned-talk radio veteran and seasoned journalist. His show serves a round-up of local and international news coupled with the latest in business, sport, traffic and weather.

You could be consuming the world's most dangerous carbohydrate without even realizing it. This hidden carb spikes your blood sugar, even more than actual sugar. Find out about the #1 most dangerous carb in this video. 0:00 Introduction: The #1 most dangerous carb in the world1:58 What is the worst carbohydrate? 2:20 What is starch? 5:20 Refined carbohydrates and chronic disease 6:08 Hidden sugar foods8:31 Food vs. ultra-processed foods It's no secret that ultra-processed carbs can take a serious toll on your health. Consuming this dangerous carbohydrate can have the following side effects:•Development of type 2 diabetes and a fatty liver•Insulin resistance•Visceral fat•Feeds pathogens in the gut •Inflammation•Increased LDL cholesterolProducts containing this ingredient can be marketed as zero sugar, even though it quickly turns to sugar in the blood. It's incredibly cheap, at about 20 cents per pound, and has no health benefits. It's used as a filler, and the average person consumes between 60 and 250 pounds per year.You can find this ingredient in gluten-free foods, baby formulas, baked goods, and other refined foods. Surprisingly, many athletes also consume this product. The carb we're talking about is industrial starch, such as modified food starch, corn starch, and maltodextrin. Starch is a string of glucose molecules. When a starch is modified in a lab, its bonds become very weak and fragile, causing it to turn into sugar very quickly in the body. Industrial starches are processed with chemicals such as sodium trimetaphosphate, vinyl acetate, bleach, and octenyl succinic anhydride. These chemicals are considered GRAS (generally recognized as safe), but they are self-regulated. Industrial starches are directly responsible for the complications associated with type 2 diabetes, Alzheimer's, brain plaquing, and fibrosis of the liver. People rarely consume starch alone. Most junk foods are composed of starches, seed oils, and sugar. Consuming starch with seed oils is a deadly combination! Hidden sugars are also consumed in much higher quantities than actual sugar. Food is defined as “that which is eaten to sustain life, to promote the growth and repair of tissues.” By this definition, starch is not food!Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

"Organic produce isn't necessarily not sprayed with pesticides. There's different types of pesticides. They just aren't allowed to use synthetic pesticides. Sometimes they can be even more toxic. Sometimes they have to use larger amounts because they're less effective especially given the cost difference between organic and non-organic, I don't see that it's really warranted for something" - Dr. Matthew Nagra Many people still believe that what they eat, how they live, their experiences, and even who they share their life with has no impact on their physical health. Today's guest is out to dispel that. Dr. Matthew Nagra is a Naturopathic Physician, and in case you're wondering if a Naturopathic Physician is a real doctor, Dr. Matthew Nagra is a health practitioner who treats people holistically.

In this powerful prophetic word delivered by Prophet C. T. Johnson, the Spirit of the Lord issues a clear and urgent call: Be on guard. The time for passive Christianity is over. God is summoning His prophets, apostles, and Kingdom citizens into a posture of militant readiness—spiritually alert, fearless, and unwavering. This is not a season for compromise or silence. It's time to defend the faith with boldness and divine strategy.CONNECT WITH CT JOHNSON

Spiritual growth rarely happens overnight. It's often a slow and refining process that takes place in seasons of waiting. In this message, Pastor Michael Chandler encourages believers to see the waiting not as wasted time, but as a vital part of God's refining work. Through patience, perspective, and trust in God's timing, we learn that what feels like delay is often divine preparation. Ultimately, God refines what He redeems, and His timing is always purposeful.

This promotion ends tomorrow! Get yours at https://berberineandliverboost.mswnutrition.com/ EPISODE SUMMARY Struggling with fibromyalgia? What you eat matters. In this episode, Nurse Doza reveals five common trigger foods that worsen fibromyalgia symptoms including chronic pain, fatigue, and brain fog. Learn why processed sugars, dairy, refined oils, nightshade vegetables, and legumes create inflammation in your nervous system, and discover healthier alternatives that support your body instead of harming it. Transform your fibromyalgia management through dietary changes. 5 KEY TAKEAWAYS Processed Sugar and Carbs Fuel Inflammation – MSG and aspartame found in processed foods directly trigger fibromyalgia flare-ups by increasing nervous system inflammation. Swap these for whole fruits, sweet potatoes, and raw cane sugar with cinnamon. Dairy Creates Digestive Inflammation – Casein in dairy products causes gut inflammation that worsens fibromyalgia symptoms. Replace with coconut milk, almond milk, and ghee as healthier alternatives. Refined Vegetable Oils Are Hidden Inflammatory Triggers – Canola, soybean, and corn oils are highly inflammatory. Switch to avocado oil, olive oil, and grass-fed butter for cooking and dressing. Nightshade Vegetables Contain Harmful Lectins – Tomatoes, peppers, eggplant, and mushrooms have anti-nutrients that damage your digestive tract and block mineral absorption. Choose cruciferous vegetables like broccoli instead. Legumes May Worsen Gut Health – Beans, lentils, chickpeas, and peanuts contain lectins that create digestive inflammation and gas. If you can't eliminate them, soak or boil them to reduce lectin content, or choose sauerkraut for fiber.

Refined in Liberty: Lessons from Doctrine and Covenants 121–123 | D. Todd Harrison: Apostle of Jesus ChristIn this message, D. Todd Harrison: Jesus Christ's Apostle to All Nations and Generations reflects on the revelations given to the Prophet Joseph Smith in Liberty Jail—captured in Doctrine and Covenants 121–123. These chapters offer profound insight into the nature of divine refinement, priesthood authority, spiritual endurance, and the Lord's timing.Key themes include:- How adversity reveals character and prepares us for stewardship- The Lord's promise to those who are unjustly accused or delayed- The eternal principles of meekness, persuasion, and long-suffering in leadership- The sacred charge to record and remember the injustices endured for righteousness' sake.This message invites all who feel spiritually silenced, delayed, or misunderstood to look again at Liberty Jail—not as a place of abandonment, but as a furnace of preparation. "I testify as one of His witnesses, that Jesus Christ is Alive Today! He conquered death, hell and the grave. He showed us the path through the injustices that we suffer for the sake of righteousness. He will be there with us in both the good and the bad times. He will bear us up against any injustice that we are called to endure. I testify that His Church has been restored in these latter days. He has brought back His priesthood power and authority. I witness that He will continue to speak to us as we continue to humble ourselves before him and ask Him in faith. In the name of Jesus Christ, amen." D. Todd HarrisonJesus Christ's Apostle to All Nations and GenerationsJesus Christ's Foreordained ApostleCommissioned by Jesus Christ (Galatians 1:1)The Most-Followed LDS Religious Leader on Facebook (1 Corinthians 9:1-3).
We reflected on the journey of spiritual growth and the importance of humility in receiving God's grace. The discussion centered on how trials, challenges, and moments of weakness serve as divine tools for refining faith and deepening our intimacy with God.We talked about God's anticipatory love—a love that sees and prepares for our needs before we even recognize them. Through faith trials and brokenness, God draws us closer to submission and humility, shaping us into the likeness of Christ. We explored how holiness is not something we achieve through human effort, but a state made possible through Christ's presence and fulfillment of the law.We also discussed personal encounters that remind us of God's purpose in our lives, from moments of discouragement transformed by encouragement to unexpected affirmations of His plan through others. The meeting concluded with gratitude for the eternal and unchanging nature of God's love, which continues to purify, strengthen, and sanctify His people.Themes:Humility in receiving God's graceTrials as tools for spiritual growthHoliness through Christ's fulfillment of the lawGod's anticipatory and eternal loveTransformation through submission and faithExperiencing peace, power, and identity in ChristReflection Question: How is God using my current challenges to draw me into deeper humility and dependence on His grace?

The average American eats 75 pounds of sugar each year when we should consume only 25 to 30 pounds per year. In this episode, you'll discover:—Why sugar itself is not a bad thing, but what we've done with it is.—How the amount of fiber versus sugar in our diets has changed over the years.—How sugar affects children differently than adults, as sugar actually changes a child's brain chemistry similar to how cocaine changes a brain. And how sugar addiction can lead to drug addiction.—Why the problem is REFINED sugar that is more like a drug instead of the natural UNREFINED sugar that still contains all the nutrients.—The results of Dr. Prather's tests on his kids and their friends in choosing between snacks made with refined versus unrefined sugar.—Why you need a lot of fiber to properly process sugar. And why oatmeal cookies can be good for you if done correctly.—How sugar changes I.Q., speed of learning, and the ability to concentrate.—How sugar affects our immune system. And the links between sugar and cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and obesity.—The healthy alternatives to sugar: Stevia (which Dr. Prather calls his favorite since it contains NEGATIVE calories), Xylitol (which helps prevent cavities and strengthens teeth), Honey (which if grown locally helps fight allergies), and Rapidura.—How purified fruit juices can be a problem since they take out all the fiber (and why Dr. Prather is pro-pulp).http://www.TheVoiceOfHealthRadio.com
