This week we're diving into the health stories you'll actually want to know about as we head into mid-December. We're unpacking why sugar cravings are so common and what's really happening in your brain and body when they strike, plus the small, practical shifts that genuinely help. We look at the wild rise of protein shakes, from beef-sludge origins to celebrity smoothies and Michelin-styled blends, and what you actually need to know about protein for real-world health.

Struggling to lose weight, control cravings, or feel consistent with your health? You're not alone. In this episode of the Zero Doubt Podcast, Jeremy Torchinsky sits down with registered dietitian Brittany Trubridge to reveal what most people are missing—blood sugar balance.We cover: 

This week, we're diving into part four of the Minerals Decoded series, and we're focusing on a crucial topic: the calcium-to-magnesium ratio, often referred to as the blood sugar or carbohydrate ratio. This specific mineral imbalance is key to addressing issues like unexplained muscle aches, sugar cravings, energy crashes, and sleep disturbances. I share the story of one of my clients who struggled with these symptoms and found relief through understanding her HTMA results and adjusting her calcium-to-magnesium ratio. We explore the intricate relationship between calcium and magnesium, how an imbalance in these minerals can affect insulin production and blood sugar regulation, and the symptoms you might experience if you have this mineral imbalance. As always, I offer some practical steps to manage this through diet, stress management, and magnesium supplementation. Tune in to gain a deeper understanding of how maintaining the right calcium-to-magnesium ratio is essential for your blood sugar stability and overall well-being. Whether you're dealing with chronic stress, muscle aches, or struggle with managing your blood sugar, this episode is packed with valuable insights to guide you on your wellness journeyDisclaimer: This information is being provided to you for educational and informational purposes only.

You think you're addicted to sugar… but it's way deeper than that. In this episode, Nate Palmer exposes the real root of cravings: dopamine addiction.

In this week's episode, we're taking a closer look at the sneaky side of nutrition—starting with hidden sugar. From yoghurt and oat milk to savoury sauces and baby food, we reveal just how much sugar is lurking in everyday items—and why it's so hard to spot on the label. Weight loss jabs like Ozempic and Mounjaro are still dominating headlines, but behind the hype lies a deeper conversation about self-worth, body image, and how 90s diet culture continues to shape our thinking. We share a powerful reflection from Elizabeth Day on the inner critic, societal pressure, and what true body neutrality looks like in 2025. We also break down the latest ultra-processed food research, including shocking new stats on early death risk. Are UPFs as dangerous as the data suggests—and what can we actually do about it? Plus, the baby food pouch scandal has reignited debate about infant nutrition. We unpack the findings, the marketing spin, and why transparency is urgently needed in this space. Elsewhere, Rhi reveals the surprising truth about plastics in activewear, Ella shares her take on the “bed rotting” trend, and we answer a listener question on the best ways to cook your veg without losing nutrients.

We're diving into how poor sleep is linked to poor egg quality. If you're struggling to fall asleep, waking up in the night, or getting out of bed feeling exhausted—this isn't just a sleep issue. It's a signal that your body is out of alignment, and for those navigating low AMH, DOR, POI, poor egg quality, or recurrent pregnancy loss, sleep disruptions can be a major red flag. In the Fab Fertile Method, we know that consistent, restful sleep plays a critical role in regulating hormones, supporting egg health, and optimizing fertility. But if you're constantly wired at bedtime, wide awake at 2 a.m., or dragging through the day despite 8 hours in bed—there's likely an underlying imbalance at play. In this episode, we dive into how sleep issues can be linked to blood sugar swings, adrenal dysfunction, inflammation, liver congestion, and more. And most importantly—we'll share the first steps to rebalance your body and reclaim the deep rest your fertility depends on. Sleep is not optional on the fertility journey. Let's uncover why your sleep is disrupted—and what to do about it. This episode is for you if: You have DOR, poor egg quality, or low AMH and struggle with waking up in the middle of the night, falling asleep, or feeling exhausted. You want to understand how hormonal imbalances, blood sugar issues, and stress impact both sleep and fertility. You're looking for functional medicine strategies, including the Fab Fertile Method, to improve sleep, support ovarian health, and enhance egg quality naturally. In this episode you'll learn: How blood sugar crashes disrupt your sleep and impact fertility by spiking cortisol and affecting hormone balance. Why adrenal dysfunction keeps you awake at night and sabotages progesterone production needed for conception. How gut imbalances and inflammation interfere with sleep and hormone production, affecting your fertility. Why liver congestion causes sleep disruptions and blocks detox, which is essential for healthy egg quality. How magnesium deficiency and hormonal imbalances impact both your sleep and your fertility, preventing you from reaching your full potential. --- RESOURCES "

Loneliness is now considered as harmful to health as smoking 15 cigarettes a day, with studies linking social isolation to a higher risk of heart disease, stroke, and even early death. We explore why strong relationships are one of the most powerful predictors of long-term health—and how small, meaningful connections can make a difference. We also dive into the risks of ultra-processed foods, from their impact on toddlers' development to their surprising link to eyesight issues. With 61% of a UK toddler's diet now coming from UPFs, experts are raising the alarm about potential speech delays and oral development concerns. Plus, new research suggests ultra-processed foods may damage retinal blood vessels, increasing the risk of vision problems like age-related macular degeneration.
