How does resveratrol affect your metabolism? Especially your youthful metabolism that protects you from aging... and helps your body to stay young. Today, we'll see Dr. David Sinclair and Dr. Ron Rosedale speak on three important yet unknown metabolic keys, which you can track with a simple blood test. Also, today, we'll discover how resveratrol affects - in different doses - 3 critical keys that keep your body younger for much longer. This is from a terrific 2021 study in humans, that gathered all known data for those 3 keys for health and youthfulness versus resveratrol dose. We'll do here an interpretation of this fascinating data. Which will help you understand not only how resveratrol affects your body, But also, which resveratrol dose is the right for you, if, of course, you want to stay young and live longer. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/wellnessmessiah/message

To reduce your aging and preserve your youthfulness, you need to be sure about what to do. You need the specifics. What to eat and how much... in the surest way we currently have with 100 years of metabolic research. And there is nothing surer in longevity than mTOR, a genetic pathway that controls longevity. Because mTOR extends 30% of lifespan in all animal forms. It's as a guarantee as you can get in longevity research. To affect mTOR, today, our focus is going to be on protein. We'll do a scientific analysis of the impact of protein on longevity. That includes: The #1 way to control mTOR to live longer. Plant protein vs animal protein for longevity. Chronic High Protein vs Short-Term High-Protein And you'll get a bonus document. ....

Berkeley Scientists help their city test for Covid 19 (Starts 1:00)   Fyodor Urnov of Berkeley's Innovative Genomics Institute explains why and how scientists anywhere can help their local community test for the Covid-19 virus.   Cytokine Storms Explained (Starts 13:05) CU Boulder Biology Professor Beth Bennett explains the "cytokine storms" that people are hearing more about in serious Covid-19 infections. A Diet that might Reduce Cytokine Storms (starts 16:43) Ron Rosedale, MD explains why eating a low carb, high fat, adequate protein diet lowers levels of the hormone leptin can lower IL-6 and might reduce the risk of Cytokine Storms.  This is an excerpt from a longer interview.  Go Here to listen to the extended version audio (40 minutes).  Here is the extended interview transcript Host/Producer/Engineer: Shelley Schlender Additional Contributions: Beth Bennett Executive Producer: Joel Parker Listen to the show:

Listen here to this extended version of the abridged interview with Ron Rosedale that broadcast on HowonEarthradio April 14, 2020.  Transcript is below. Host/Producer/Engineer: Shelley Schlender TRANSCRIPT OF EXTENDED INTERVIEW Ron Rosedale, MD, Talks about COVID 19, the Immune System and Cytokine Storms DATE: April 14th 2020 Introduction — The Centers for Disease Control reports that people are at greater risk for Covid-19 hospitalization and often deadly cytokine stoems, if they have pre-existing health conditions, such as high blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease.  Everyone says that healthy eating might reduce these risks - but does healthy mean the New York Times distractibaking comfort foods of brownies and Nutella shortcake?  Does it mean taking dozens of supplements and cutting out fatty junk foods, as Cristina Cuomo recommends for her husband, CNN’s Chris Cuomo?  Up next, we talk with Medical Doctor Ron Rosedale about why he believes that eating and sleeping in a way that reduces high levels of the hormone leptin might reduce the chance of severe symptoms of Covid-19, such as cytokine storms. This is an interview to help you ask questions about the science behind your health choices.  This is NOT an interview to take the place of medical advice.  Talk with a doctor you trust, if you have questions about your health, and especially if you’re taking medications, and monitor for changes to your need for medications whenever you’re doing a lifestyle change, such as changing your diet.   TRANSCRIPT RON ROSEDALE Can you hear me? SHELLEY I'm using the high tech method of recording this phone call on my handheld zoom recorder as you speak on What's App from India. RON ROSEDALE Yes, I am in India.  I’m actually here helping a family known as the Ambani family. Very, very, very prominent. Probably the most prominent, not even probably -- they are the most prominent family in India, with their health. And they have they're mostly located in Mumbai, but ended up getting locked down in a town called Chandigarh.  So that's where I am in a town north of Mumbai called Chandigarh SHELLEY We've certainly been thinking about India from here in the United States, because there's so much concern that India's population density, meaning it’s in great danger from what will happen with Coronavirus.  On the other hand, there's also a thought that perhaps India and Pakistan, because they do tuberculosis vaccines, might have an unusual amount of protection. RON ROSEDALE Not just tuberculosis, but Malaria. So, you know, malaria is fairly rampant so many people have taken quinalones, chloroquine, things like that, which is being touted as there is a medication to help treat the Coronavirus. So that's one way of looking at it.  THE KEY TO FIGHTING AN INFECTION IS A STRONG IMMUNE SYSTEM RON ROSEDALE However, the most important thing to fight any infection, especially viruses, is going to be a strong immune system. And that's really the only way epidemics subside. It's not that the bug goes away, but that people become immune to it. And that's especially true for viruses.  TOO MUCH PROTEIN IN USA; TOO LITTLE PROTEIN IN INDIA And the problem here in India is that many people have deficiencies that impair their immune system.  So, for instance, whereas in the US, people eat too much protein, which also impairs the immune system, actually, because excess protein is made into sugar. And it raises insulin and it causes what's called glycation when sugar molecules combine with other proteins and other molecules that impair their function. And antibodies for the immune system are proteins. Protein is very necessary for the immune system. So in the US they eat too much protein, but in India, they eat too little in general, and they don't have enough protein to actually mount a strong immune system to make antibodies. And so one of the problems with India is a deficiency of protein in general.

If you only watch one video on how to minimize you and your family's risk levels - this, I suggest - is it. Blowing the lid off the metabolic fixes to rapidly mitigate your personal risk of severe outcome from this virus. It's Dr. Ron Rosedale, all the way from his Indian Lock-down pad.

The Cause of and Solution to Obesity and Diabetes #SANE with Dr. Ron Rosedale & Jonathan Bailor

Low Carb Diets and Lifespan (starts 3:00) Dr. Ron Rosedale, MD, gives a "second opinion" about a widely publicized report in the prominent medical journal The Lancet.  The Lancet report contends that low carb diets (40% carbs or less) shorten lifespan, and moderate carb diets (roughly 55% carbs) promote longer lifespans. The study is being hailed as proof for why people should “eat carbs in moderation.” But what if the Lancet study didn't go low enough on carbs to reveal potential benefits of a VERY low carb diet?  Dr. Rosedale advocates a very low carb, adequate protein, high fat diet, meaning roughly 15% of calories from carbohydrates, 15% from protein and 70% from fat.  (GO HERE for extended version) Down syndrome and Inflammation (starts 15:25) Joaquin Espinosa,  executive director of the Crnic Institute for Down syndrome, discusses the inner workings of cells in people with the genetic mutation known as Down syndrome.  His findings may explain some common characteristics of Down syndrome, such as shorter stature, cognitive challenges, protection from some cancers, and increased risk of pneumonia and Alzheimer's.   Espinosa's lab used Boulder’s Somalogic protein analysis tool to inspect thousands of the different proteins our bodies make.  The lab discovered a few hundred proteins that are noticeably different for people with Down syndrome.  These proteins do not specifically influence height or how to take a test.  Instead, they reveal an out-of-balance immune system.

Welcome to the Mastering Blood Sugar podcast! This is episode one, with Ron Rosedale. Your host is Dr. Brian Mowll, the diabetes coach. He is a certified and master-licensed diabetes educator and IFM certified functional medicine practitioner. Each week, Dr. Brian Mowll will bring you an inspiring health or lifestyle expert to help you learn to boost your metabolism, lose weight, and master your blood sugar with natural, drug-free strategies. Today, Dr. Brian Mowll interviews one of his early mentors in natural diabetes care and reversal — Dr. Ron Rosedale. Dr. Rosedale is an internationally-known expert in nutritional and metabolic medicine, whose work with diabetics is truly groundbreaking. Very few physicians have had such consistent success in helping diabetics to eliminate or reduce their need for insulin and to reduce heart disease — both without drugs or surgery. Dr. Rosedale was the founder of the Rosedale Center and co-founder of the Colorado Center for Metabolic Medicine in Boulder, Colorado, and founder of the Carolina Center for Metabolic Medicine in Asheville, North Carolina. Through these centers, he has helped thousands suffering from so-called incurable diseases to regain their health. One of Dr. Rosedale’s life goals is to wipe out type 2 diabetes in this country as a model for the world. He’s also written a book called The Rosedale Diet that has proven treatment methods for diabetes, cardiovascular health, arthritis, osteoporosis, and other chronic diseases of aging. In this interview today, Dr. Rosedale gives us a better understanding of the hormonal control of blood sugar and metabolism. He explains mTOR and how it relates to aging, cancer, and diabetes. He also teaches how to become better fat-burners and why he would rather have a patient with diabetes than a common cold, as well as his methods to reverse type 2 diabetes. He explains what the ACCORD trial taught us about aggressive diabetes treatment with medications. Dr. Rosedale also explains how we can optimize our genes for optimal health; why a ‘ketogenic’ diet is a terrible name for the low-carb, high-fat diet, and why we shouldn’t chase ketones; and his optimal diet for someone with diabetes or blood sugar problems.  

Ivor Cummins is a Biochemical Engineer who in 2012 was disturbed by a set of his own abnormal blood test results. Consultation with multiple doctors yielded little insight into the cause of his elevated cholesterol, ferritin and GGT so he turned to his analytical roots to study the problem. In the process, he evaluated hundreds of scientific papers, ultimately concluding that that flawed hypotheses and a breach of the scientific method have resulted in the current “diabesity” epidemic. Ivor is here today with Dr. Tommy Wood talking on topics related to his well-referenced new book, Eat Rich, Live Long: Mastering the Low-Carb & Keto Spectrum for Weight Loss and Great Health. They also discuss the trouble with polyunsaturated oils, advice on fat loss for the insulin sensitive, and the best test for cardiovascular disease risk (hint: it’s not LDL). If you enjoy this podcast, Ivor is a regular presenter at low-carb/keto events and maintains an active blog and social media presence.

Our Scientific Director Megan Hall (née Roberts) recently had some of the work from her Master’s degree published in the journal Cell Metabolism, which is seriously impressive. The paper appeared on Science Daily, and generally caused a bit of a stir in the low carb community. As we have direct access to the horse’s mouth, I’ve asked Megan to join me in this episode of the podcast to summarise the findings and give some thoughts on how it might relate to human health.

A Whole Health Educator and Personal Trainer from Mountain View, California asked me some questions about the FDN certification and since we get so many questions like the ones below, Tommy and I did a webinar to answer those and more, live. The questions: What health services did you offer before studying with FDN?  How did you integrate your new training into your service offerings at the beginning? Have you been able to use FDN to build a solid/sustaining income and business model?  If so, how long did that ramp up process take? What marketing initiatives/strategies have you tried?  Which worked best/least? Were there additional/unforeseen start up costs? What challenges have you had along the way to setting up business with FDN?  What might you have done differently? What are your thoughts on the current lab testing that FDN recommends, as well as the supplement brands they have relationships with?   Do you find that most of your income from FDN stems from patient sessions or from supplement income?  Some other avenue?

Denver Permaculture Guild (starts 3:30) staff and board members explain the goal of permaculture and guild's annual workshops program taking place this weekend.       Ron Rosedale, MD, Explains Autophagy (starts 17:50)   The Nobel Peace Prize in Medicine has just been awarded to Japanese Scientist Yoshinori Ohsumi  for his discoveries about a process inside our cells known as autophagy.  Autophagy explains how a cell “cleans house” by recycling unessential components, either for food or for building blocks.   Mutations in autophagy genes can cause cells to keep fixing themselves up and living too long.  Think cancer cells.  Conversely, problems that get in the way of autophagy can lead cells to die too soon, such as in the neurologic diseases of Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s.  The winner of this year’s Nobel Prize in Medicine was not available to discuss autophagy with us.  However, Shelley Schlender did speak with Ron Rosedale, a medical doctor who has been giving presentations about autophagy at science and health conferences for well over a decade. Hosts: Shelley Schlender, Kendra Krueger Producer and Engineer: Shelley Schlender Executive Producer: Beth Bennett

This is an extended version of the interview we broadcast on January 8th, 2013, featuring Ron Rosedale discussing the new study about BMI and Longevity.

HEADLINES: Diabetes Drug Metformin - University of Pennsylvania Researcher Morris Birnbaum reports in Nature that Metformin blocks a hormone that tells the liver to melt muscle to make more blood sugar. (Go here for an extended interview with Morris Birnbaum) Climate Change - Research shows that timely political action has a bigger impact than waiting. Boulder Cafe Scientifique - Tonight's Cafe Sci features CU Boulder researcher Monique LeBourgeois (who we interviewed in detail in previous broadcast) on the topic of kids and sleep. MAIN FEATURES: We talk with scientists who are part of two new University of Colorado - Denver studies about alcohol and marijuana - 1) Ben Crost presents a study of marijuana use versus alcohol use which concludes that the minimum drinking age of 21 increases marijuana use among teens (until age 21, alcohol use is lower and marijuana use is higher.  After age 21, alcohol use goes up and marijuana use goes down).  Daniel Rees and Mark Anderson are among the authors on a study of Medical Marijuana and Traffic Fatalities that view the question of who uses what from the other side.  Their study looks at an exception to the rule - the 16 states and District of Columbia with some years now, have had medical marijuana laws.  In these Medical Marijuana states, teen use of marijuana appears to rise at age 18 (that's the age at which teens no longer need to have their parent's permission to get a Medical Marijuana card. )  But even more interestingly, in these Medical Marijuana states, traffic fatalities go down.  These authors look at why. (Go here for extended interviews with Crost and Anderson) We also discuss the new study from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention that analyzed the link between Body Mass Index (BMI) and death.  BMI is calculated as weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared study.  The study concluded that while very obese people were likely to die sooner than others, people who were moderately overweight, or even slightly obese, were less likely to die than were people of normal weight, or people who are thin.  Medical doctor and researcher on aging, Ron Rosedale, puts this study in historical perspective, pointing out that the British Medical Journal the Lancet published a similar study in 2006 that concluded that BMI is not a very useful measure of health, and other measures, such as waist to hip ratio and certain hormone levels, might be better at predicting health and longevity.

Do you struggle with how much protein is right for you? More? Less? Well here's your chance to ask THE protein aficionado himself. We are thrilled to have  with us to discuss what role protein can and should play within the context of a low-carbohydrate diet. He is a professor of nutrition in the Department of Food Science & Human Nutrition at the College of Agricultural, Consumer and Environmental Sciences in Urbana, Illinois. He is one of the foremost experts in the world on the subject of protein and has been studying the effects of proteins and amino acids to determine their effect on exercise performance as well as the role they play in overall health for decades.

No carb counting, no cooking.Enter "LLVLC" at checkout for 25% off!NOTICE OF DISCLOSURE:  Here are some of the questions we addressed in this podcast: MARYLOU ASKS:I'm a 69-year-old female who has been in a power wheelchair for the past 12 years due to MS. I remain fairly active in my upper body doing light housekeeping, cooking, and shopping, taking care of grandchildren twice a week, driving as needed with hand controls, and exercising at the gym twice a week for about an hour. My weight has come down to 140 from 155 by eating low-carb for the past five years. But I would feel much more comfortable, as I'm sitting all day, with less body fat around my middle. I eat under 20 grams of carbs with the recommended .8 grams protein per kilo of ideal body weight, but I seem to be an expert at gluconeogenesis and can't get into ketosis. Does being unable to walk allow for a smaller protein requirement for people like me? I'm also "pre-diabetic" with fasting blood glucose readings around 110 dropping into the 90's when I eat the smaller protein amount. MEGHANN ASKS:I need to accurately calculate my protein requirement -- what do I need to measure to do that for myself? Should my protein intake be for my current weight or my ideal body weight? I want to make sure I'm getting just the right amount of protein in preparation for a triathlon that will not send me into fat-storing mode. There are just so many conflicting opinions about this. JAMIE ASKS:Are there any guidelines to the protein serving size that minimizes insulin response? Are you aware of any studies comparing the satiety of various proteins such as eggs, beef, lamb, game, chicken, soy, whey, milk, cheese and yogurt? MARYANN ASKS:How much protein should a person who has the gene H63D for hemochromatosis and an iron level of 601 eat and what kinds? I also have episodes of atrial fibrillation. It's kind of a mystery knowing what to do for someone with afib and high iron levels because it seems like they have opposite solutions. MARGIE ASKS:What happens if someone eats too much protein in a day? What level of protein intake would that be and what would happen if someone consumed that much protein? KATARINA ASKS:Why does beef or game seem to give better control over hunger than the same amount of chicken? That's been my personal experience over the past six years. Whenever I eat a larger amount of chicken, for example, that makes me hungry for even more meat sooner than a smaller amount of beef or game with similar protein. And when I say hungry for meat, that means an intense craving that makes me want steak or liver and lots of it fried lots of butter--right now! Is this satiety difference related to the fat quality of these meats? KAT ASKS:Why is it that after not eating all day I can eat a big hunk of protein and within minutes of finishing I am suddenly sleepy? JOSH ASKS:I switched over to a low-carb/ketogenic diet last June and one thing I noticed within a few days is that my hands and feet didn't get cold anymore. After reading on the low-carb blogs about how consuming too much protein can get converted into glucose, I started lowering my protein intake down from 150+ grams daily to just over 100 grams. Then I started having cold hands and feet again and for the past few days I've been upping my protein again to see what would happen. My cold extremities have improved again. Is it safe to assume that this means I've found the right level of protein I need? Or what else is going on here? KATHERINE ASKS:When determining the optimal protein intake for preservation of muscle mass during weight loss, should it be figured on a per kg BW basis or total energy in the diet basis and why? What figure would you use and is it different for men vs. women and why? AMBERLY ASKS:My son is allergic to dairy and I'm looking for an acceptable alternative to protein shakes made with whey protein. Is rice protein an acceptable alternative or are there better ones? EXCEPTIONALLY BRASH ASKS:Can you address the differing opinions from various low-carb doctors on the subject of protein. Dr. Ron Rosedale seems to think that excess protein is unhealthy and can shorten your lifespan while Dr. Jack Kruse and Dr. Michael Eades don't think protein consumption is an issue. Is there any research on longevity or other health benefits with keeping your protein minimized? A.J.C. ASKS:I intermittent fast for 16 hours and then squeeze in three meals in the span of 8 hours. My question for you is when I'm eating this way with about 35-40g of protein per meal, how does this influence protein digestion and use during the rest of the day when I'm not eating? Is this an adequate amount of protein to consume? What happens if I'm so satisfied with what I've eaten in only one or two of those meals consisting of 35-40g protein each that I skip a meal or two? KEITH ASKS:I am an active 45-year-old who lost 75 pounds on the Atkins diet. I have been working on building muscle and have increased my intake of protein to facilitate that. Obviously, I get most of my protein intake from real whole foods, but I have been targeting 1g of protein per pound of lean body weight each day and I am finding that even with a low-carb lifestyle, I am needing to supplement with whey protein to reach that goal. But I'm concerned because I have heard from one of my favorite fitness bloggers that whey protein increases insulin more than even white bread! Needless to say, I was shocked and disappointed as I have had good results drinking whey protein shakes. I am desperately trying to avoid consuming soy protein and have not liked the products I have tried with casein and hemp proteins, am I okay sticking with whey protein as long as I time the supplementation to coincide with my workouts to avoid the insuligenic effect? Would beef protein supplementation be even better as an alternative? BARBARA ASKS:Are there certain foods rich in protein that should be avoided? I love the rich selection of cheeses that we can get here in England, but wondered if consuming all that dairy was bad for me. PETRO ASKS:Would Dr. Layman please address the branch chain amino acids, particularly leucine, isoleucine and valine and their ability to raise insulin levels, but relatively suppress glucagon levels. Alternatively, the amino acids phenylalanine, glycine, serine and asparagine seem to raise glucagon relative to insulin according to studies done in dogs. Are there better protein sources for people that might cause a lower insulin response and a greater glucagon response that would possibly enhance weight loss?

AIR DATE: January 19, 2012 at 7PM ETFEATURED EXPERT: FEATURED TOPIC: “All Things Leptin (Leptin 101)” Episode 2 of “Jimmy Moore Presents: Ask The Low-Carb Experts” features Dr. Ron Rosedale, M.D. who is the author of  and is an internationally-known expert in nutritional and metabolic medicine whose work with diabetics is truly groundbreaking. Through his work, he has helped literally thousands of patients suffering from so-called incurable diseases to regain their health.
