Mikki dives into the bizarre and controversial “sugar diet” that's been making waves on social media. Once dismissed as just another fad, it's now gaining traction among high-profile influencers, including Mark Bell. Mikki unpacks what the sugar diet actually is, the science behind its surprising short-term results, and why its mechanism might have less to do with sugar itself and more to do with protein restriction and its effects on FGF21. She also discusses the research origins, potential risks, and why this approach may only be suited—if at all—for a very specific subset of people. If you've been curious about the hype, this episode delivers the context, caveats, and science you need before even thinking about giving it a go.Highlights:What the sugar diet actually involves and who's promoting itThe role of protein restriction and FGF21 in increasing energy expenditureWhy short-term studies don't tell the whole story on health impactsGenetic and metabolic factors that could make or break resultsLong-term risks, from nutrient deficiencies to liver stress Contact Mikki:https://mikkiwilliden.com/https://www.facebook.com/mikkiwillidennutritionhttps://www.instagram.com/mikkiwilliden/https://linktr.ee/mikkiwillidenSave 20% on all Nuzest Products WORLDWIDE with the code MIKKI at www.nuzest.co.nz, www.nuzest.com.au or www.nuzest.comCurranz supplement: MIKKI saves you 25% at www.curranz.co.nz or www.curranz.co.uk off your first order

Save 20% on all Nuzest Products WORLDWIDE with the code MIKKIPEDIA at www.nuzest.co.nz, www.nuzest.com.au or www.nuzest.comThis week on the podcast, Mikki speaks to Dr Spencer Nadolsky — a board-certified obesity and lipid specialist known for his evidence-based, compassionate approach to helping people lose weight and improve metabolic health. Spencer has dedicated his career to bridging the gap between clinical medicine and the lived realities of people struggling with obesity, cutting through misinformation to focus on what actually works.With the arrival of Wegovy in New Zealand — and the explosion of interest in GLP-1 medications worldwide — their conversation couldn't be more timely. They discuss how these drugs work, how they compare to diet, lifestyle, and older weight loss medications, and why the price tag varies so widely between countries. They also explore the controversies — from “microdosing” to long-term safety, tolerance, and muscle loss — and whether these drugs can genuinely shift someone's metabolic set point or are simply managing symptoms. If you've been wondering whether GLP-1s are game-changing tools or just the latest fad, this episode will help separate the hype from the evidence. Dr. Spencer Nadolsky is an obesity and lipid specialist (DO, ABOM, ABCL) with over a decade of experience. Through practice innovation, digital education, and previous ventures like Sequence and the Docs Who Lift podcast, he's become a trusted, engaging voice in metabolic health.His company, Vineyard, is a virtual obesity medicine clinic delivering personalized, science-backed, and compassionate care.

In this Mini Mikkipedia episode, Mikki breaks down a recent Australian headline claiming that diet sodas increase the risk of type 2 diabetes. Spoiler: the science doesn't support that claim. Mikki dives into the observational study at the centre of the controversy, teasing apart key limitations—like reverse causality, confounding behaviours, and reliance on a single food frequency questionnaire over 14 years. She explains why the idea that diet drinks are as harmful as sugary ones is not only misleading but potentially dangerous for public health messaging. If you've ever wondered whether your Diet Coke habit is sabotaging your health, this episode offers clarity backed by evidence.What You'll Learn:Why observational studies can't prove causationThe concept of reverse causality in nutrition researchLimitations of self-reported dietary data over long periodsHow bias and confounding can distort risk estimatesWhy focusing on overall lifestyle matters far more than zero-calorie drinks Contact Mikki:https://mikkiwilliden.com/https://www.facebook.com/mikkiwillidennutritionhttps://www.instagram.com/mikkiwilliden/https://linktr.ee/mikkiwillidenSave 20% on all Nuzest Products WORLDWIDE with the code MIKKI at www.nuzest.co.nz, www.nuzest.com.au or www.nuzest.comCurranz supplement: MIKKI saves you 25% at www.curranz.co.nz or www.curranz.co.uk off your first order
Ultramarathoning isn't just about being physically strong; it's about being mentally strong.And being mentally strong doesn't just mean pushing through low points; it means being able to solve problems when they come up in an ultramarathon (which is always inevitable).That has been a big key to success for both Harry Subertas (Cocodona 250 champion in 2024) and Lauren Klein (ultrarunner, crew chief, and Harry's fiancé) as they've navigated through the challenges of ultrarunning and life with a powerful attitude.In this episode, Harry and Lauren share how they've been able to overcome challenges in life and ultras, how they dial in their crew strategy to create the best race results, and how they harness the power of community to make ultrarunning more familiar.Huge thank you to Harry and Lauren for coming on the show!SHOW LINKS:Want to work with me to crush your next ultramarathon in our group coaching program and get a FREE Everyday Ultra Hat?

Since then, he's helped over 115 patients in Taupō put type 2 diabetes into remission—an achievement that's not only reshaped his practice, but challenged the conventional approach to chronic disease management. He was named General Practitioner of the Year in 2021.In this conversation, we explore what "remission" really means in clinical terms, the systems that help sustain it, and the biomarkers that shift most consistently. Glen also shares insights on the psychology of behaviour change, the risks and rewards of keto, and the real-world barriers to scaling this model across New Zealand. They also have a frank conversation of the level of knowledge that GPs have to prevent and treat the modern day health crisis that NZ (like most countries) is facing.Glen Davies: https://reversalnz.co.nz/team/dr-glen-davies/ Contact Mikki:https://mikkiwilliden.com/https://www.facebook.com/mikkiwillidennutritionhttps://www.instagram.com/mikkiwilliden/https://linktr.ee/mikkiwilliden

Rosemary Mitchell is a 62-year-old ultrarunner whose story with the Comrades Marathon is as powerful as the race itself. In this episode, I had the honor of sitting down with Rosemary for a heartfelt and inspiring conversation about endurance, tradition, and what it truly means to run with purpose.We explored her personal journey—how challenges and setbacks shaped her path—and what it took to conquer the emotional and physical demands of Comrades. Rosemary opened up about the meaning behind the Green Number, the incredible community that surrounds this race, and how running continues to transform her life at every age.We also talked about the legacy of Comrades in South Africa, the camaraderie of ultra running, and how age can become a source of strength, not limitation. Her wisdom is a reminder that running is as much about heart as it is about speed.

We're all tempted, at times, to allow our ego to get the better of us. Many of us feel like we're on top of the world until the precise time we find ourselves on the bottom of it.

Today, we talk about the fear of being stuck, gratitude for our struggles and adversities, overcoming our greatest fears, how positivity and negativity are infectious, and how you can re-size your ego or have it re-sized for you.

“It was a good experience. I loved it. My legs were fucking done by 25 miles in, and I was shaking walking up the hill because my legs couldn't take any more beating.” Erik Koenig, a former U.S. Army infantryman and accomplished ultramarathoner, is widely respected in the running community for his experience as both a military veteran and elite endurance athlete.

In this Mini Mikkipedia, I tackle a topic that comes up time and time again with clients and inside Mondays Matter: how to talk to your kids about food without passing on diet culture. If you're a parent trying to model healthy habits without moralising food or triggering disordered thinking, this episode is for you.I explore how to explain your goals to your kids (yes, even aesthetic ones!) while maintaining an abundance mindset. We cover why the issue isn't tracking or meal prep—but the language and energy we use around food and our bodies. This is a practical and compassionate episode for anyone navigating food conversations at home.

Anna Troup is a powerhouse in British ultrarunning, and her story is nothing short of epic. After dominating the Montane Summer Spine Race in 2021 and 2022, she suffered a serious foot injury that kept her sidelined for nearly three years. But in June 2025, at age 55, she made a jaw-dropping comeback: winning the 268-mile race outright in 84 hours, 56 minutes, and 37 seconds, finishing more than six hours ahead of the next competitor.XMILES UK - Listeners now receive 10% of their order value back as store credit via the link below.https://xmiles.avln.me/c/RiwxnARvfHeRRunderwear - Use code TEATRAILS15 for 15% off your orderhttps://runderwear.avln.me/c/GPVNMgMfYfLPSHOKZ - Use code TEA102025 to receive £10 off.https://uk.shokz.com?sca_ref=7394994.MfsDQZBAeLQihiPrecision Fuel & Hydration https://visit.pfandh.com/3GKxHjUPrecision Fuel & Hydration Planner https://visit.pfandh.com/3RuP25zHarrier - Use code TEA10 for 10% off. https://harrierrunfree.co.uk/Fenixlight Limited - Use code T&T5 for 5% off your order.https://www.fenixlight.co.uk/Protein Rebel - Use code Tea15 for 15% off your first order. https://proteinrebel.com/Centurion Running - Use code TEAANDTRAILS10 to receive 10% off *Excluding Sale Items.https://centurionrunning.com/GOODR - Use code GOTEAANDTRAILS to reveive 10% off your order.https://goodr.avln.me/c/VLEmsAIZCDtmLIFE JACKET SKIN PROTECTION - Use code GOTYOURBACK for 10% off your first order.https://lifejacketskin.com/PRIMUS UK - Use code TT-PRIMUS-20 for 20& off.https://primusuk.avln.me/c/kBWmOJaEiByDContent may contain affiliate links which can help support and grow this channel at no extra cost to you.

Julianne recently led a scoping review that sheds much-needed light on the challenges—and the promise—of using elimination and reintroduction diets for people with RA.In this conversation, we explore the broader aims of Julianne's research programme and what drew her into this niche in the first place. We unpack the motivations behind her review, including the striking lack of standardised protocols, the limitations of popular food sensitivity tests, and the idiosyncratic ways people seem to react to foods.Julianne shares her insights on why dietary interventions remain underutilised in conventional care, despite strong patient interest and some compelling mechanistic leads—ranging from fasting and gut permeability to mast cells and neuroimmune crosstalk. We also discuss the impact of placebo and nocebo responses, the confounding effect of ultra-processed food removal.If you've ever wondered why diet and autoimmunity remain such a grey area—or what it will take to turn that grey into actionable science—this episode is for you.Julianne experienced first-hand the difference diet makes; she experimented with the popular Zone diet in the 90's, and within days experienced increased energy, improved mental focus, and excellent appetite control leading to weight loss without hunger. Further experiments led to trying the paleo diet in 2009, which eliminated auto-immune joint inflammation and menstrual issues.As a result she changed careers, from a designer to a nutritionist, and went back to University to study nutrition at Massey. In 2015 Julianne completed a post graduate diploma in nutrition science.Julianne has been researching the connection between diet and health since 1997, and applying what she has learned to her clients with great success. She has a special interest in how diet controls appetite regulation via control of ‘hunger' hormones. Using these diet principals she has helped hundreds of people lose weight with ease.The effect of diet in reducing auto-immune disease is also a topic close to her heart, and in her post graduate work she researched diet studies and Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and interviewed 10 people who had successfully used a paleo diet to reduce symptoms or go into remission. Julianne is an AIP-certified coach.Julianne is currently doing her PhD research on the topic of dietary strategies for rheumatoid arthritis, which includes an intervention pilot study on the effect of the auto-immune protocol (AIP) diet on RAJulianne's current hobby is powerlifting. She represented New Zealand in Sweden in 2019 in the Masters 3, 52kg category, winning a bronze medal for benchhttps://juliannetaylornutrition.com/https://podcast.mikkiwilliden.com/96https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=doLeFDn_Tr0&ab_channel=ArthritisNZhttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40181632/ Contact Mikki:https://mikkiwilliden.com/https://www.facebook.com/mikkiwillidennutritionhttps://www.instagram.com/mikkiwilliden/https://linktr.ee/mikkiwilliden

In this Mini Mikkipedia Monday, I break down what you actually need to know about Wegovy (semaglutide), now available in New Zealand. There's a lot of noise around this weight loss medication—from the science to the stigma—and in this episode, I aim to cut through it with facts and context. I cover how GLP-1 agonists work, what makes them effective, and why they're not just another “quick fix.” From appetite suppression and craving control to weight maintenance and muscle loss concerns, I offer a balanced look at the pros, cons, and common misconceptions. Plus, I share my take on why we need less judgment and more empathy when it comes to using tools like these in our broken food environment.Highlights:The difference between Wegovy and Ozempic: use case and dosingHow GLP-1 receptor agonists impact appetite, cravings, and metabolic healthThe role of semaglutide in long-term weight loss and potential downsidesWhy muscle loss isn't a direct effect of the drug—and how to prevent itThe wider implications for public health and why lifestyle vs. medication is a false dichotomy Contact Mikki:https://mikkiwilliden.com/https://www.facebook.com/mikkiwillidennutritionhttps://www.instagram.com/mikkiwilliden/https://linktr.ee/mikkiwillidenSave 20% on all Nuzest Products WORLDWIDE with the code MIKKI at www.nuzest.co.nz, www.nuzest.com.au or www.nuzest.comCurranz supplement: MIKKI saves you 25% at www.curranz.co.nz or www.curranz.co.uk off your first order

Author, Ultrarunner, Triathlete, Marathoner, and OG Run Farther & Faster Runner, Jeffrey Weiss joins us on the show this week to talk about his incredible running trajectory—from walk/run to the Comrades Marathon—and every event in between. Jeff started running in 2010 when he joined our very first running group at the JCC of Greater Washington. He quickly found his passion and progressed to triathlons, marathons, and ultramarathons. Now, fifteen years later after countless athletic endeavors, Jeff wrote a memoir about his fitness journey called Racing Against Time: On Ironman, Ultramarathons and the Quest for Transformation in Mid-life. Jeff's book is available on Amazon for preorder and will be released by MSI Press on October 1. (https://a.co/d/9XoHEgG ). Part memoir and all inspiration, Racing Against Time has it all: family, life, midlife transformation, along with tragedy with triumph.Huge thanks to Jeff for joining us!Thanks for listening.

Aram has built a loyal following by calling out quick fixes, influencer myths, and the glorification of self-neglect — and replacing them with evidence-based, practical strategies that actually help people change.In this episode, Aram and Mikki dive deep into the realities of sustainable fat loss, the emotional rollercoaster of dieting, and why the basics — sleep, food quality, and consistency — are often overlooked. They also tackle the trap of chasing aesthetics over health, the truth about fasting, and why regaining a bit of weight after a diet doesn't mean you've failed. If you're tired of magic pills and motivational fluff, this conversation is the antidote.Aram Grigorian is a nutrition and mindset coach and the founder of 4 Weeks 2 the Beach, a coaching platform built on cutting through wellness industry hype with honesty, clarity, and science. With certifications from Precision Nutrition and the Nutrition Coaching Institute, Aram blends a no-nonsense approach with deep empathy for the real-world challenges people face.After leaving a career in finance, he found his purpose in helping others build sustainable habits around food, training, and recovery — without relying on detoxes, macros "fairy dust," or influencer fads. Known for his candid takes on diet culture, the psychology of fat loss, and the importance of behaviour change, Aram is redefining what it means to pursue health in a world full of distraction.https://www.4weeks2thebeach.com/Podcast https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/other-side-lifestyle/id1623447851IG : https://www.instagram.com/4weeks2thebeach/ and https://www.instagram.com/real.coaches.summit/ Contact Mikki:https://mikkiwilliden.com/https://www.facebook.com/mikkiwillidennutritionhttps://www.instagram.com/mikkiwilliden/https://linktr.ee/mikkiwilliden

Jonathan Kuplack didn't run 101 ultramarathons in 101 days for glory, but to reignite a fire in young men's souls. He shares how physical suffering, endurance, and mission can awaken true Catholic masculinity. Through his nonprofit Sebaste, inspired by the 40 Martyrs of Sebaste, Kuplack mentors boys into men of faith, grit, and joy. He exposes how phones, comfort, and passivity are sabotaging a generation, and offers a radical alternative: sacrifice, beauty, and heroic love. From boarding school to marriage, his life is a living call to reject sloth and pursue sainthood.U.S. residents!

In this episode, we explore the extraordinary story of Cliff Young, the humble Australian potato farmer who became a national legend by winning the grueling 1983 Sydney to Melbourne Ultramarathon at the age of 61. With no formal training and dressed in work boots, Cliff stunned the world with his relentless determination, unique “Young Shuffle” running style, and unwavering spirit. Not only did he beat seasoned athletes by nearly two days, but he also captured hearts by selflessly sharing his prize money with fellow competitors. Cliff Young's journey is a testament to the power of perseverance, humility, and believing in yourself—no matter your age or background.
