Story at-a-glance Magnesium deficiency is widespread despite its key role in 600+ bodily functions; modern farming has depleted soil minerals and most people absorb only 30% to 40% of dietary magnesium Different forms of magnesium target specific health needs: glycinate for sleep and anxiety, malate for energy, citrate for digestion, threonate for brain function and taurate for heart health Common magnesium-rich foods like nuts and seeds aren't recommended because they contain inflammatory linoleic acid, which worsens metabolic health Magnesium deficiency contributes to serious health issues including insulin resistance, high blood pressure, poor glucose control and mitochondrial dysfunction Supplementation strategy matters: determine your ideal dose using magnesium citrate — once your dose causes loose stools, dial back slightly — then switch to glycinate or malate based on symptoms of tension/sleep issues or energy/focus problems

Coaching and programming from Justin, Amanda, and William can be found here - https://highcallingfitness.com/ Summary In this episode of the Bacon Bibles and Barbells podcast, Coach Justin, Coach Amanda, and Coach Bill engage in a comprehensive discussion about hormone replacement therapy, particularly testosterone replacement therapy (TRT). They explore the importance of understanding individual health needs, the benefits of TRT on mental clarity and mood, and the significance of a holistic approach to health that includes diet and training. The conversation also touches on personal training updates, health challenges, and the impact of hormones on relationships and overall well-being. In this conversation, the speakers delve into the complexities of testosterone therapy, discussing the variability of optimal testosterone levels among individuals, the morality surrounding hormone replacement therapy, and the role of SHBG in treatment protocols. They emphasize the importance of individualized approaches to therapy, the limitations of current medical practices, and the fallacies of correlation and causation in medical research. The discussion also touches on the risks associated with PCT and the challenges of understanding medical knowledge in a nuanced way. Takeaways TRT can benefit those who are doing everything right but still feel off. Mental clarity and mood improvements are significant benefits of TRT. It's important to consider individual needs and not just follow standard protocols. Hormones play a crucial role in both physical and mental health. Trialing TRT can lead to positive lifestyle changes and improvements. The concept of optimization is more beneficial than therapy in hormone discussions. Normal ranges in blood work may not reflect optimal health. A holistic approach to health includes diet, training, and hormone levels. Testosterone can have profound effects on relationships and personal well-being. Understanding the nuances of hormone levels is essential for effective treatment. Optimal testosterone levels vary for each individual. The morality of TRT is a complex issue. SHBG levels should not dictate treatment protocols. Individualized treatment is crucial for effective therapy. Clomid is not a suitable alternative to testosterone. PCT may not be necessary for everyone. Oral testosterone has significant limitations. Inductive reasoning can lead to medical fallacies. Correlation does not imply causation in medical studies. Understanding medical knowledge requires humility and caution.  

 In this episode, we dive into the tiny but powerful molecule called NAD+ — the fuel your cells need to create energy, repair damage, and keep you feeling young and strong. As we age, NAD+ levels drop, and that can lead to low energy, slower healing, and more health problems. But here's the exciting part: science is showing that we can boost NAD+ through smart lifestyle habits and supplements — helping improve energy, brainpower, heart health, and even slow down aging. We'll break it all down in simple terms:  ✅ What NAD+ does in your body  ✅ Why it matters for your health and aging  ✅ How to naturally boost your NAD+ levels  ✅ What new research is saying about its future If you want to unlock more energy, sharper thinking, and better long-term health, this episode is for you! Tune in and learn how to help your body thrive — from the inside out.

Dr Austin Perlmutter, neurobiology, mood and decision-making expert, joins our ambassador Dr Adrian Lopresti as they explore the biological basis of “stuckness” in the mind and how the brain is influenced by inflammatory/immune triggers which results is certain behaviours and health outcomes. Together they discuss the relationship between sickness behaviour, neuroinflammation and their effect on the brain leading to our inherent tendency to return to “default”. Nature vs nurture is discussed where exposures from foetal development, childhood trauma and genetic influences can impact our mental and cognitive flexibility much later in life. Austin explains “disconnection syndrome” a modern conundrum where our brains tend to latch onto impulsive behaviours leading to cognitive decline. It's not all doom and gloom as Austin and Adrian bring practical solutions to the table in the form of simple lifestyle adjustments that promotes behavioural change and reduce neuroinflammation.

Description: Co-hosts Ryan Piansky, a graduate student and patient advocate living with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) and eosinophilic asthma, and Holly Knotowicz, a speech-language pathologist living with EoE who serves on APFED's Health Sciences Advisory Council, interview Bethany Doerfler, MS, RDN, a clinical research dietician specializing in lifestyle management of digestive diseases at Northwestern Medicine. Ryan and Holly discuss managing nutritional deficiencies in patients with non-EoE EGIDs and a study Bethany worked on.

Opinions, information, and recommendations shared in this podcast are not a substitute for medical advice. Decisions related to medical care should be made with your healthcare provider. Opinions and views of guests and co-hosts are their own.   Key Takeaways: [:50] Co-host Ryan Piansky introduces the episode, brought to you thanks to the support of Education Partners Bristol Myers Squibb, Sanofi, Regeneron, and Takeda. Ryan introduces co-host Holly Knotowicz.   [1:17] Holly introduces today's topic, common nutritional deficiencies that affect those with eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases that occur in the GI tract lower than the esophagus (non-EoE EGIDs).   [1:31] Holly introduces today's guest, Bethany Doerfler, a clinical research dietician specializing in lifestyle management of digestive diseases, including gastroesophageal reflux disease, motility disorders, and eosinophilic diseases.   [1:45] Bethany currently practices as part of a multi-disciplinary team in a digestive health institute at Northwestern Medicine.   [2:03] Bethany began working with this disorder almost 20 years ago. She worked with Dr. Gonsalves and Dr. Hirano at Northwestern. Dr. Gonsalves invited her to work with EoE patients. Bethany had not heard of EoE.   [2:59] Bethany says the lens that we've used to look at food as the trigger and also a therapeutic agent in the esophagus, we're looking at in non-EoE EGIDs as well; at the same time, trying to make sure that we're honoring the other parts of our patient's lives.   [3:27] Before Bethany started working in GI at Northwestern, she worked in the Wellness Institute, doing nutrition for patients at Northwestern. Bethany has a research background in epidemiology and she wanted to see better nutrition research in GI.   [3:56] Through a friend, Bethany connected with the Chief of GI at that point. Northwestern had never had a dietician working in GI.   [4:08] Bethany is pleased to see a trend in healthcare of thinking about the patient as a whole person, including diet, psychological wellness, physical health, exercise, sleep, and more. Bethany wanted to see more research on GI disorders.   [4:38] Bethany says that eosinophils in the esophagus indicate that something is irritating the tissues, such as reflux, food triggers, aeroallergens, and other things.   [4:58] Eosinophils do belong in the stomach, the small intestine, and the colon. The challenge for researchers has been, how many, where are they supposed to live, and what are they supposed to look like.   [5:10] There is eosinophilic gastritis, where eosinophils can infiltrate the stomach, causing a lot of inflammatory responses that make patients sick. We see that in all parts of the small intestine and less commonly, in the colon, as well.   [5:32] It's a good reminder for listeners that eosinophils are white blood cells. When they're in the tissues, they can swell things up and cause the body to have this inflammatory response in these lower GI tract organs.   [5:49] The symptoms patients can experience are vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain, among other things.   [6:14] The nomenclature for this subset of eosinophil-associated diseases has changed and Bethany says to hang tight, there is lots of work underway to nail this down further in the next couple of months to a year.   [6:29] The last guidelines were published by a Delphi Consensus in 2022. The experts in the field got together and voted on the scientific accuracy of certain statements to develop cut points for how to grade.   [6:48] The experts are asking questions like: What counts as eosinophilic gastritis? What do we think are some of the symptoms and the clinical findings so that we all are looking at things through the same lens?   [7:02] To get to these consensus statements, there's a lot of discussion, agreement, and good collegial discussions about making sure that we're looking at this accurately.   [7:12] We're trying to give the right names to the right disorders and give clear diagnostic criteria, so that we're helping our patients get a diagnosis, and we're not labeling something incorrectly and sticking someone with an inaccurate diagnosis.   [7:36] The proper terminology is eosinophilic gastritis in the stomach, eosinophilic enteritis in the small intestine, eosinophilic colitis in the colon, and eosinophilic gastroenteritis where the stomach and the small bowel are involved.   [7:53] There's more to come on the clinical criteria of what makes that diagnosis but we're getting the names and the numbers right.   [8:03] Holly agrees that having the symptoms given a named diagnosis is important to patients, knowing that researchers are looking into their illness.   [9:00] Bethany notes that the diagnosis also means that there are opportunities for medical therapy, cut points for which medicines or therapies work or not, and billing codes. If we can't bill insurance companies, patients might not get certain services.    [9:28] Ryan tells how beneficial it was for him to have access to multi-disciplinary teams and see specialists he might not have seen without the proper diagnosis and just thought it was a GI issue. He was fortunate to see a dietician and start dietary therapy.   [9:53] Bethany says the dietician's priority is the patient's health and wellness.   [10:13] These disorders carry clinical non-gastrointestinal manifestations: fatigue, concern over what to eat, food access issues, family support, and other food allergies. These are important things for a dietician to consider.   [10:37] Are patients growing as they should? Do they feel like they have enough to eat? Do they feel excluded in social settings? There's a list of important things that we want to be looking at. That's why it's important to have a multi-disciplinary approach.   [11:07] First, Bethany wants to see that her patients are physically and nutritionally well. That's a priority if we're going to try to get rid of some of the food triggers that could be exacerbating the disease.   [11:20] Before Bethany takes anything out of someone's diet, she wants to make sure that they're getting enough of the good stuff to help them feel good and grow.   [11:29] From a diet therapy perspective, Bethany is trying to apply a food removal or substitution protocol to other spots outside the esophagus. They're seeing that some of the triggers are very similar, both in the stomach and small intestine.   [12:09] Dr. Gonsalves, Dr. Hirano, and Bethany did a study, The Elemental Study, where they wanted to uncover if food proteins carried the same trigger risk in the stomach and small intestine as they do in the esophagus.   [12:35] They put their patients on a hypoallergenic elemental formula for a period, followed up, and looked at their biopsies of the stomach and small intestine. Fifteen wonderful patients made it through the trial.   [12:56] One hundred percent of the patients achieved disease remission and felt better. There were some genetic alterations in the patients. Then they started the process of reintroducing foods over the year.   [13:15] That was not part of the original grant but was the team's clinical interest to see what it is that people are allergic to. Some of the common suspects: wheat, dairy, eggs, soy, and nuts, were found to be very common triggers for EoG and EoN, as well.   [13:47] The benefit of working with a dietician as part of your team is, first, we can remediate things the disease has caused nutritionally, and second, we can think about how diet can be a therapeutic tool to use with medications or instead of medication.   [14:15] If you want to use nutrition therapeutically, you don't have to stay there if it's not the right time to be taking things out of your diet. We have some good, safe, medical therapies. You can find your food triggers but you don't have to pick that lane forever.   [14:42] Holly and Ryan relate their experiences with traveling abroad and going on medical therapies when they can't stay on their diets.   [15:57] Bethany says low levels of vitamins and minerals in the blood can be caused by a disorder or an elimination diet. In the U.S., dairy is the biggest source of protein for young kids. It's also the biggest source of calcium and vitamin D.   [16:22] Dieticians often say, if we are going to use dietary therapy for EoE or non-EoE EGIDs, we have to think of this as a substitution diet. If we remove something, we have to replace it with something equally nutrient-dense.   [16:39] Bethany and her group look at serum values of Vitamin D, B12, and iron they assess for patients. For kids, instead of drawing blood, they piece together what they're taking against what they need and see if there are gaps to fill with food or supplements.   [17:32] In patients with non-EoE EGIDs, Bethany says we see the disease intersect with the food supply. When we take milk out, we're cutting the biggest source of calcium and Vitamin D. We have to replace calcium and Vitamin D.   [17:55] In the 1950s, a public health law allowed wheat to be enriched with folic acid and other B vitamins and iron. When we cut out wheat, our patients aren't getting enough iron or B vitamins. We have to replace those.   [18:16] For patients who have eosinophils in their stomach and small intestine, their absorption in the small bowel may be directly impacted.   [18:26] People can have low levels of protein in their blood, maybe because they're eating insufficient protein or maybe because the disease doesn't allow them to absorb protein sufficiently when there's swelling in the small intestine.   [18:44] There are other nutrients, like zinc, for people who have diarrhea, and magnesium if you can't eat a lot of whole grains and nuts, There are quite a few nutrients that Bethany is broadly looking at.   [18:54] Based on the absorption in the small intestine, patients' doctors need to look at their B12, folic acid, iron levels, and Vitamin D.   [19:12] Holly loves Bethany's terminology of replacing, not just eliminating, foods. She will use that terminology with her patients to make it feel more supportive for them.   [20:40] A lot of people want to get all their nutrients through their food. That's not always practical. Vitamin D is hard to get exclusively in your diet if you're not drinking milk or eating wild-caught fish. You have to rely on fortified foods or add supplements.   [21:15] One, we want to take a look at your diet and ask how are your calories. We want to make sure you're eating enough. Two, if we suspect there are some vitamin deficiencies, we check your blood or just empirically supplement you.   [21:36] Supplementation should be done carefully. There are some vitamins where you can get too much of a good thing. Vitamins stored in the fat need to be at levels sufficient for repletion, dictated by age and gender. Dieticians know what to recommend.   [22:19] For patients who have non-EoE EGIDs, some have tentative swallowing, so Bethany tries to do as many liquid or chewable safe options for supplements as possible.   [23:46] Holly works with patients who have feeding difficulty, so she appreciates the liquid and chewable supplements for easier swallowing and quicker absorption.    [24:08] Bethany mentions that some fortified oat, corn, and rice breakfast cereals are highly enriched with B vitamins and iron. Look at the labels. It can be a way to layer in more vitamins without purchasing a supplement.   [25:24] Holly doesn't think patients understand how valuable a good dietician can be. She had one patient with celiac who was taking a supplement with gluten in it! She reminds listeners to always consult your care team before making any changes to your treatment plan.   [25:59] Bethany's favorite thing to talk about is foods and where to find what. If listeners have questions, she is happy to post answers on the website.   [26:25] The American Academy of Pediatrics says a cup of vitamin-fortified juice a day is not too much sugar and is a good source of Vitamin C and other nutrients. The calcium and Vitamin D you get from a cup of fortified juice is very value-available.   [26:46] In the non-dairy drink world, some are nicely fortified and some are not. If you make your almond milk, you're missing out on the fortifications.   [27:11] Bethany likes some of the fortified juices and some of the enriched non-dairy milk options. Those are the best ways to get calcium and Vitamin D for people who need calories. Instead of water with meals, substitute an enriched drink with meals.   [27:33] Some people struggle with protein, probably because of their level of food restriction. The typical animal proteins are great. If you can do soy, a cup of soy milk has eight grams of protein. Soy is a complete protein that mimics animal proteins.   [28:04] Cook your cereal in soy milk. Use it as the base of a smoothie. This is before getting into protein powders. Try legume-based proteins, if you can handle legumes. Your supplements have to be personalized. That's the tricky part.   [28:30] If you have a lot of food allergies or intolerances, it may be worth talking to your gastroenterologist, allergist, or dietician about adding elemental formula as a supplement. Bethany uses it often with food allergy patients as a safe supplement.   [29:31] Bethany primarily treats adults but also young adults transitioning from the pediatric side into the adult world. Sometimes a feeding difficulty follows patients into adult treatment. We need everyone at the table to treat this immune-mediated disease.   [30:32] Patient advocacy groups like APFED have ways to help you find dieticians. Also, the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics has “Find a Specialist” on their website. Eatright.org. Dieticians can do telehealth if you are not near one.   [31:45] If the practice that you're in doesn't have a dietician, you could gently suggest they have one join the practice, or consult with the practice. Patient advocacy is strong.   [33:12] Bethany talks about getting an appointment with a dietician. On the pediatric side, it has to do with the billing code. Ask your insurance if they cover medical nutrition therapy, Billing Code 97802, and for which diseases. Insurance may have stipulations.   [34:14] If medical nutrition therapy is not a covered benefit, ask the dietician if they can do a sliding scale. Holly says she has seen plans in several states where the patient can use the HSA or FSA card to pay for medical nutrition therapy.   [34:49] Bethany believes in the pediatric world, where growth and development are concerns, there's a little bit better coverage.   [34:59] On the adult side, if Bethany has other diagnoses, like high blood pressure, or diabetes, she is also billing for those because she makes sure what she recommends is also in line with what is good for their heart and wellness in general.   [35:55] Bethany was intrigued to learn food proteins do trigger disease activity for our patients in the stomach and small intestine, just as in the esophagus.   [36:20] In the Elemental Trial, they were surprised to learn people with non-EoE EGIDs had more allergies than expected. They were more likely to have more than just one or two. They were also more likely to have rare food allergies like legumes or grains.   [36:43] A patient may want to learn all their food triggers, but they may be a highly allergic person and it may not be worth trying to remove all their food triggers.   [37:06] Bethany wants to remind listeners that the diet approach should be a substitution diet. If you take things out, you've got to replace them with other plants.   [37:18] There's great crossover nutrition between fruits and vegetables. Seeds are great as a fill-in for nuts. There are plenty of other whole grains out there besides wheat. There are lots of good ways to get that nutritional balance into your diet.   [37:31] For anyone who's eliminating a food group, even if you're substituting it, it's a good idea to talk to your doctor about filling in with a good multivitamin, multimineral supplement.   [37:59] Bethany says it's fun working with colleagues to look for other ways to look at this nutrition lens for patients with Non-EoE EGIDs.   [38:14] They are looking at noninvasive ways to find eosinophils to go faster with helping people find their food triggers without having to scope them.   [38:28] Bethany is hoping with that research to be able to help people learn how they can cheat, like having pizza once a month if they are allergic to dairy. That's a question for your care team, but we don't have a great science-based way to answer that.   [38:53] As we study more noninvasive ways to get at eosinophilic activity, we can give patients a little bit more freedom and quality of life. That's what Bethany is working on next.   [39:58] Holly thanks Bethany Doerfler for joining us on Real Talk — Eosinophilic Diseases.

In this episode of Daily Value, we look at recent research suggesting that the B12 levels we've always accepted as "normal" might silently be failing our brains. New data reveals that standard B12 thresholds may not adequately shield us from subtle neurological decline. Are current diagnostics overlooking hidden deficiencies? We go into how B12 truly supports your nervous system, the overlooked significance of active B12, and why traditional treatments might need reconsideration, particularly for those struggling with absorption. Perhaps the path to preserving cognitive health lies in rethinking what we thought we knew about vitamin B12.00:00 Introduction: Rethinking Vitamin B12 Levels00:33 Understanding Vitamin B1201:24 The Role of B12 in Neurological Health01:57 Causes and Consequences of B12 Deficiency03:00 Reevaluating B12 Sufficiency Standards04:40 New Research Insights on B12 and Cognitive Health07:30 Dietary Sources and Bioavailability of B1208:50 Supplementation and Treatment Strategies10:50 Challenges in Treating B12 Deficiency11:55 Conclusion: Towards Optimal Cognitive HealthPMID: 39927551PMID: 36774098PMID: 38987879Support the show

The supplement industry is a minefield of competing claims, pseudoscience, and genuine breakthroughs that can leave even the most health-conscious consumer bewildered. This episode cuts through the noise with straight talk from exercise science expert Chase Brady and primary care practitioner Cassie Wellock as they break down what actually works, what's probably worthless, and how to make smart choices with your supplement dollars.From the critical importance of third-party testing to the suspect nature of "proprietary blends," you'll discover why the supplement industry is, as our experts bluntly put it, "an absolute shit show." The conversation doesn't stop at criticism though—it dives into practical advice on supplements with strong research backing like vitamin D, omega-3s, and creatine monohydrate, explaining not just what to take but why and how these supplements function in your body.The team explores the science behind post-workout nutrition, debunking myths around protein timing and carbohydrate consumption while offering practical guidelines based on training intensity and duration. You'll learn why cheap fish oil might do more harm than good, why that elevated creatinine in your bloodwork probably isn't cause for concern, and why most weight loss supplements deserve their spot in the "garbage" category.What makes this episode particularly valuable is the emphasis on intentional supplementation. Before adding any pill or powder to your regimen, our experts urge you to consider specific questions: What's the potential risk? What's the upside? What does research say? And most importantly—could you get this from whole food instead? This framework helps ensure you're supplementing with purpose rather than chasing the next influencer-hyped product.Ready to stop wasting money on supplements that don't deliver?

Eating crickets and meat grown in a lab with cancer-like cells - WHO APPROVED THAT?! Scott Tips, president of the National Health Federation (NHF) and internationally recognized health freedom attorney, joins host, Jamie Belz, to help us understand the deeper mechanisms of Codex Alimentarius, the World Trade Organization (WTO), and the global regulatory web that threatens access to nutrient-dense food, natural health remedies, and therapeutic supplements.   As the only health-freedom organization with official INGO (International Non-Governmental Organization) status at Codex, NHF is uniquely positioned to stand up for the public's right to safe, informed, and autonomous healthcare choices on the global stage.   Over the last 70 years, NHF has defended medical choice and challenged the federal government's overreach into nutrition, supplementation, and holistic healing.   Some quick topics/snippets from this episode: Codex creates international food law—affecting everything from vitamin dosage limits to whether or not your meat contains drug residues. Most people don't even know Codex exists. And yet, decisions made there determine what shows up in your grocery cart, your supplement bottle, and your child's plate. The U.S. can now force genetically modified foods into countries that don't want them — not through diplomacy, but through international tribunals using Codex standards as their weapon. Ractopamine is a drug with zero therapeutic value. It makes animals fatter, faster — but it's banned in the EU, China, and Russia. In the U.S., you're probably eating it. When you hear ‘scientific consensus,' be cautious. The phrase is used to bulldoze public concern. You can be banned for calling out corruption at Codex. At CODEX, NHF is the only one defending your right to natural health freedom. The EU, Russia, even Iran — they've stood up for consumer safety at Codex more than the U.S. delegates have. The scary thing isn't just what the FDA is doing. It's how many people still trust them, blindly — even when their actions have harmed more people than every U.S. war combined. We need advocacy from the ground up. Most parents feeding their kids toxic food don't even know it — because the truth has been buried. “Frankenmeat”, insect protein, and natural flavoring cover-ups, all of which bypass transparent labeling laws while being quietly introduced into the food supply. They're trying to outlaw homeopathy—while promoting lab-grown meat and insect protein as sustainable alternatives. We don't want to be right. We want to get it right.   “Unless we put medical freedom into the Constitution, the time will come when medicine will organize into an undercover dictatorship… To restrict the art of healing to one class of men and deny equal privileges to others will constitute the Bastille of medical science. All such laws are un-American and despotic.” - Dr. Benjamin Rush, Declaration of Independence signator and Surgeon General of the Continental Army   "If people let the government decide what foods they eat and what medicines they take, their bodies will soon be in as sorry a state as the souls of those who live under tyranny.” - Thomas Jefferson   TAKE ACTION:  Join the National Health Federation for only $45/year to support international advocacy at Codex and receive the quarterly NHF magazine.

Vitamin D is more than a vitamin—it's a hormone that influences everything from your immune system to cardiovascular health, cognition, and longevity. In this conversation, Dr. Michael Holick breaks down the science of vitamin D synthesis, the truth about sun exposure vs. supplements, and why vitamin D deficiency is far more common—and more dangerous—than most people realize. You'll learn how skin pigmentation, UVB exposure, and supplementation protocols impact your vitamin D levels, and why D3 is more effective than D2. Dr. Holick also dives into mood, cognition, and the controversial role of vitamin D in chronic disease and COVID outcomes. With dosage guidelines by age and weight, plus practical advice on avoiding vitamin D toxicity, this episode is a masterclass on one of the most important—yet misunderstood—nutrients in health and longevity.

In this conversation, Cheryl McColgan shares her journey of preparing for a NPC Fit Model bodybuilding competition at the age of 52. This episode is in vlog format and best viewed on YouTube although it's still being released as an audio podcast. She discusses her training regimen, nutritional strategies, and the mental challenges she faces throughout the process. Cheryl emphasizes the importance of protein intake, understanding ketosis, and the role of supplements in her routine. She also reflects on her daily activities, meal preparations, and the significance of maintaining a healthy body fat percentage while training for the fit model competition. Takeaways Challenging oneself can lead to personal growth. Nutrition plays a crucial role in competition prep. Understanding individual carbohydrate needs is essential. Daily routines can help manage energy levels during prep. Supplementation can enhance performance and recovery. Protein intake should be prioritized for muscle synthesis. Meal prep can simplify tracking macros. Finding enjoyable foods can make dieting easier. Maintaining a healthy body fat percentage is important for women. It's important to listen to your body during training. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IWat2qgDcsE Episode Transcript New NPC Fit Model Division Cheryl McColgan (00:00.504)So I'm back a little later in the day here getting ready to make my dinner, but I realized when I started editing the video that I did not really set this up very well. So I wanna put this at the beginning. I am sharing with you a day in what I've been doing for the last almost 10 weeks now. And that is training, eating, losing fat for possibly competing in the fit model category in the NPC. When I thought about this in the, well first of all, thinking about doing this at age 52 is quite daunting, never having been stepped on stage before in a bodybuilding competition. But if you wanna learn more about that thought process, I have another podcast that I did on that and I'll link that down below. But basically, I'm still not 100 % certain that I'm. to do it, but I've been training, eating, doing fat loss for last 10 weeks as if I am definitely going to do it. So it's just a little scary and that's the only reason I'm thinking about not doing it. I think it'll be fun in a lot of ways. I think it would be a great experience and I'm all about challenging myself and putting myself out of my comfort zone. So that's why I started it. anyway, so this is kind of just my day, how I've been training, how I've been eating, bio hacks that I do, supplements that I use, all that kind of good stuff that will all be here in the video. Yeah, I don't normally do vlogs, so this is totally new format for me, but hopefully you'll find it helpful or somewhat entertaining or maybe while you're trying to get through your cardio, you'll be watching this video, which is how I've been getting through a lot of my things that I've been doing over the last several weeks, listening to podcasts, watching videos, watching other people talk about their preps and things like that. Cheryl McColgan (01:55.946)So without further ado, let's move on to my day. Hey everyone, good morning. This is going to be a totally different kind of video for me. I've never done one of these before, but I thought I would take you through a day in the life of prep. So you can see a little bit what it's more about, get some of my feelings on it. Yesterday was a particularly difficult day. So we made it through, woke up this morning.

Send us a textIn this episode we talk with Dr. Austin Hogwood about:Nitrate/Nitric Oxide - aka beetroot juice - supplementationWhat his research found about sex difference in supplementation, and in pre- and postmenopausal womenBonus info about how sitting affects your heart healthDr. Austin Hogwood is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the University of Virginia's Robert M. Berne Cardiovascular Research Center, where he focuses on cardiovascular exercise physiology. He earned his Ph.D. in Exercise Physiology from the University of Virginia. Dr. Hogwood's PhD research explored the effects of inorganic nitrate supplementation, both alone and in combination with exercise, on exercise performance and vascular health. He has investigated how these factors influence exercise across sex, across the menstrual cycle, and alongside exercise training. He has also studied how vascular function may be altered by inorganic nitrate supplementation with exercise in postmenopausal women. When not in the lab, Austin enjoys lifting weights and playing soccer, and spending time with his wife and his dog.Please note that this podcast is created strictly for educational purposes and should never be used for medical diagnosis and treatment.Connect w/ Dr. Hogwood: Google Scholar: scholar.google.com/citations?user=6XpYcroAAAAJ&hl=enWeb: postdoc.virginia.edu/postdoc-directory/austin-hogwood X: x.com/Hogwood_ACMentioned:Beet It: amzn.to/42HcsvgDr. Hogwood's nitrate studies:https://journals.physiology.org/doi/full/10.1152/japplphysiol.00221.2023https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1186/s40798-023-00632-1.pdfhttps://journals.physiology.org/doi/full/10.1152/japplphysiol.00559.2023Other researchers:Dr. Ryan Garten: scholar.google.com/citations?user=1qB9nDsAAAAJ&hl=enJason Allen: scholar.google.com/citations?user=Zrq9guUAAAAJ&hl=enDr. Art Weltman: scholar.google.com/citations?user=oSl17FoAAAAJ&hl=enDr. Kerrie Moreau: scholar.google.com/citMORE NR New customers save 10% off all products on our website with the code NEWPOD10 If you would like to work with our practitioners, click here: https://nutritional-revolution.com/work-with-us/ Save 20% on all supplements at our trusted online source: https://us.fullscript.com/welcome/kchannell Join Nutritional Revolution's The Feed Club to get $20 off right away with an additional $20 Feed credit drop every 90 days.: https://thefeed.com/teams/nutritional-revolution If you're interested in sponsoring Nutritional Revolution Podcast, shoot us an email at nutritionalrev@gmail.com.

Nutrition is increasingly being considered as a modifiable factor that may influence neurodevelopmental outcomes. While severe deficiencies in certain nutrients are known to have dramatic effects, there is growing interest in the potential impact of more subtle insufficiencies — particularly during critical windows such as pregnancy, infancy, and early childhood. In conditions like ADHD, dyslexia, and autism spectrum condition (ASC), questions have been raised around whether specific nutrients may play a role in cognitive performance, attention, or learning. Could low choline intake be a contributing factor to altered brain function? Are individuals with neurodevelopmental conditions more likely to have different nutrient needs or metabolic profiles? And how might practical dietary strategies fit into a broader management approach? In this episode, Dr. Emma Derbyshire discusses the evidence on choline and other brain-related nutrients in the context of neurodiversity. Timestamps [02:02] Guest background [05:38] Choline: what it is and why it matters [07:26] Research challenges: measuring choline and study design issues [10:49] Maternal intake: choline's role in fetal brain development [14:24] Choline & neurodevelopmental disorders (ADHD, ASC, dyslexia) [17:14] The choline gap: intake vs. requirements [23:05] Supplementation: adequacy vs. excess and safety concerns [25:05] Food sources: choline in the diet & intake planning [30:14] Nutrition as a tool in ADHD and dyslexia management [38:45] Other key nutrients (omega-3s, iron, iodine, magnesium, water) Related Resources Go to episode page Join the Sigma email newsletter for free Subscribe to Sigma Nutrition Premium Enroll in the next cohort of our Applied Nutrition Literacy course Book: Nutrition for ADHD and Dyslexia: Unlocking the Potential for Learning and Wellbeing Dr. Derbyshire's website: https://www.nutritional-insight.co.uk/

Ever wonder what a world-class performance specialist eats to fuel his day? You might be surprised to learn it includes wild game like elk, deer, and yes, even bear meat! In this episode of Habits and Hustle, I talk with Dr. Andy Galpin, a leading expert in human performance who works with elite athletes across multiple sports. Dr. Galpin cuts through the noise of trendy diets to share fundamental nutrition principles that drive performance. We dive into why calorie balance, whole foods, and adequate protein (about 1g per pound of bodyweight) matter more than following any specific eating schedule. We also discuss hunting, eating bear meat, and how nutrition needs differ based on activity. Overall, Dr. Galpin emphasizes individualization, finding what works for your specific body, goals, and lifestyle rather than following one-size-fits-all approaches. Dr. Andy Galpin PhD is a tenured full Professor at California State University, Fullerton. He is the Co-Director of the Center for Sport Performance and Founder/Director of the Biochemistry and Molecular Exercise Physiology Laboratory. He is a Human Performance scientist with a PhD in Human Bioenergetics and over 100 peer-reviewed publications and presentations.

Many women struggling with hormonal issues are told to just “take birth control” or “it's all in your head” - but the reality? They're missing a critical first step - addressing the foundational principles of health. In this episode, I had a fascinating conversation with Dr. Austin Lake who revealed that bio-identical hormones work initially, but often fail later if the foundational pieces (like, issues on sleep circadian rhythm, gut health & microbiome, and stomach acid) aren't addressed. The modern approach has completely ignored these basics while pushing pharmaceutical solutions. Fix the foundation first, then consider targeted hormone therapies if needed.
