Host Dr. Davide Soldato and Dr. Shelia Garland discuss the JCO article "Randomized Controlled Trial of Virtually Delivered Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia to Address Perceived Cancer-Related Cognitive Impairment in Cancer Survivors." TRANSCRIPT The guest on this podcast episode has no disclosures to declare. Dr. Davide Soldato: Hello and welcome to JCO After Hours, the podcast where we sit down with authors from some of the latest articles published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology. I am your host, Dr. Davide Soldato. I am a Medical Oncologist at Ospedale San Martino in Genoa, Italy. Today we are joined by JCO author Dr. Sheila Garland. She's a Professor of Psychology and Oncology at Memorial University, and she's the director at the Sleep, Health, and Wellness Lab and Senior Scientist at the Beatrice Hunter Cancer Research Institute. Dr. Garland will be discussing the article titled, “Randomized Controlled Trial of Virtually Delivered Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia to Address Perceived Cancer-Related Cognitive Impairment in Cancer Survivors.” Thank you for speaking with us, Dr. Garland.  Dr. Sheila Garland: Thank you so much for having me. Dr. Davide Soldato: So, Dr. Garland, you designed a study that relied on cognitive behavioral therapy to treat insomnia, and then you assessed whether improvement in insomnia would be associated with an improvement in cancer related cognitive impairment. So I wanted to ask if you could give us a little bit of context and explain the rationale between these studies. So how common are these symptoms among cancer survivors, and why do we think that improving insomnia would also improve cognitive function?  Dr. Sheila Garland: Yeah, thank you very much. That's a really, really good question. And so cognitive behavior therapy for insomnia has been used to successfully treat insomnia in cancer survivors for quite some time. I think JCO was one of the first publishers to really demonstrate the potency of this intervention to improve insomnia. But as we know, patients will often present not just with insomnia, but insomnia comorbid with pain, fatigue, and very commonly cognitive impairment. If we take a look at the experimental research in sleep, we know that sleep quality and quantity is associated with very important cognitive functions. And so we've had clear sleep deprivation studies where if you're not able to successfully get sufficient quality or quantity of sleep, you're going to have impairments in attention and concentration and memory. So it really makes sense that if we're able to improve sleep in cancer survivors, that we're also able to address maybe some of the other concerns that they would have related to sleep. So this is an important clinical question for the patient's quality of life, but I also think it has important system implications where if we're looking at like resources and efficiency of allocating those resources, if we have an intervention that can treat multiple problems, that means that we can more effectively address lots of symptoms and use fewer resources in doing so. So that was the thought in designing this trial. Dr. Davide Soldato: Thank you very much. That was very, very clear. So you spoke about the intervention that you implemented in the clinical trial. So I was wondering if you could give us a little bit of context. How long was the intervention? What were the main points addressed? Because you said that, in the end, we already have some data regarding cognitive behavioral therapy for treating insomnia. So I was wondering, did you personalize in any way, the program or the intervention to fit more to the cancer survivors population?  Dr. Sheila Garland: Yeah. So it is based on a protocol that has been well researched and has a great deal of evidence of efficacy. But we delivered this intervention over a course of seven weeks. So individuals had individual sessions with a trained therapist, and those sessions lasted about an hour and were over roughly about two months or so. Seven sessions over two months. And because they were delivered individually, there was some adaptation based on the clients' presenting problems. So while there's sort of a standard protocol, if the client is also presented with levels of fatigue or pain or anxiety or depression, the therapist was able to integrate those concepts into the therapy as well. There was nothing for cognitive impairment. So there was no additional intervention for cognitive impairment at all. We weren't doing any memory training or anything like that. So it was strictly the sleep and other symptoms looking at the impact of improving that on not only your perception of your cognitive abilities, but also on performance on a number of neuropsychological test measures. Dr. Davide Soldato: So thank you very much for the detail. And I think that it's very interesting what you said, that the personalization of the intervention would also allow to treat some other symptoms that are distressing for cancer survivors. Like, for example, you mentioned fatigue or anxiety or depression. And I think that this goes back to the first point that you made about the intervention. So being able to treat different symptoms all at one in one single intervention, I think that that is a very intelligent use of resources and also to promote and implement, potentially some interventions that are beneficial for survivors of cancer on different domains and potentially different symptoms. So, going to the results a little bit, what did you observe regarding specifically insomnia with the intervention that you delivered? Dr. Sheila Garland: Yeah, so, of course, we wanted to make sure that we were effective in targeting the primary outcome of what the trial was supposed to do, which was we were supposed to treat effectively, treat insomnia, and then determine whether treating that insomnia was related to improvements in cognition. So we were expecting that the intervention itself was going to be successful at improving insomnia, and we were. So we were able to not only demonstrate a statistically, but also a clinically meaningful improvement in insomnia severity. Usually that's measured by a change of about 8.4 on a measure called the insomnia severity index. And the change that we were able to produce was over 11 points. So it was clearly over the clinically meaningful change threshold. Dr. Davide Soldato: Going back a little bit to the design of the study, this was a randomized clinical trial. And how did you allocate the participants of the study into which arms? And can you guide us a little bit in the study design?  Dr. Sheila Garland: Yes. A lot of thought went into the study design. We ultimately decided on having a waitlist randomized controlled trial, and this was because there is no other intervention for insomnia that has comparable efficacy. And we felt it would be unethical to not give people the standard treatment that we know works to treat insomnia. So that's where having them wait for a period of time and then receive the treatment was ultimately what we decided on. Overall, we were able to recruit 132 participants, and those were randomized into either receiving treatment immediately or receiving treatment after a two month waiting period. Dr. Davide Soldato: So you mentioned that the intervention was actually very effective for treating insomnia. You reported an improvement in the insomnia severity index of almost 11 points. And as you mentioned, this is both clinically meaningful and it was also statistically significant. Did you see any improvement also on cognitive function, and how did you measure this outcome? Was it self reported, or did you also have some objective measure to see, for example, working memory or some other type of cognitive function? Dr. Sheila Garland: Yeah. Also, a lot of thought went into choosing the primary outcome for this. And there's people who have argued compellingly that self reported cognitive function should be the primary target because we know, based on past research, that objective and subjective ratings of cognitive performance do not always correlate well with each other. And taking a very patient oriented approach, we wanted to make sure that we prioritized the patient's perception of their own function. We used one of the subscales of the functional assessment of cancer treatment cognition scale. So it was the Perceived Cognitive Impairment subscale that was what we used as our primary, but we also reported the two other subscales, which was the Perceived Cognitive Abilities and the Impact of Cognition on Quality of Life. We were able to not only discover that there were clinically significant improvements on all three of those subscales, but actually translated into, again, the clinically meaningful change threshold that's been established for the perceived cognitive impairment subscale is, I think it's around, like 5.9 points. So, using that cutoff, 75% of the participants in the trial reported clinically meaningful improvements in their perceived cognitive impairments, compared to just 43% of those participants in the wait list group. And we looked not only at the immediate intervention effects, but also on whether they were durable. So we had follow up assessments of both three months and six months after completing treatment, and the effects on insomnia, as well as the cognitive dimensions, they were maintained.  Dr. Davide Soldato: Thank you very much for this last remark, because I think that one of the worries I would say that we have when implementing this type of behavioral intervention is that in the end, the change that we produce and the behavioral change that we produce might be effective in the immediate time after completing the intervention. But frequently we sort of see the loss of this benefit that we produce with the intervention at later time points. And I think that this is very important that you also looked at the benefit that was maintained over time for the three and six months after the end of the intervention. And it's true that before we add some data regarding other types of behavioral intervention, for example, for weight loss or some other symptoms and other toxicity that we frequently target with this type of intervention, I was wondering, do you think that it's something specific to cognitive behavioral therapy and the specific symptoms that you were treating, so insomnia, that in the end, produced a durable and meaningful benefit over time?  Dr. Sheila Garland: So I do think that there's something really specific about this type of intervention. With insomnia, you're really changing the person's fear of not sleeping, and you're giving them tools to be able to both prevent the reocurrence of insomnia and also if the reocurrence should happen, they know what to do then to address it themselves. I was very curious about the impact that it might have long term. I actually wasn't sure whether it would have an effect immediately, considering that people do accumulate kind of a sleep debt after having insufficient sleep for a period of time. So I didn't know whether we would see anything immediately. I thought maybe we would need the long term follow ups to see some of the effect. But I guess maybe not surprisingly, at the end of the trial, thinking about when somebody has a good night's sleep, they're feeling the effects even the next day. Dr. Davide Soldato: Thank you. That was very insightful. Regarding the duration of the intervention, because in the end, this was very short, because it was just seven sessions weekly, and usually also when we design or implement this kind of behavioral intervention, we frequently go for a longer period of time where the patient is subjected to this type of behavioral intervention. Frequently, we see around three, six months of intervention. And so I think it's really amazing the effect that you had on this specific symptom with such a short intervention. So I think that that is also something that speaks to the possibility of further implementing this type of intervention and this type of program for symptom control.   And going back a little bit to what was one of the main questions of the trial that you designed and the results of the article that you published, did you observe a mediating effect of the improvement of insomnia on the cognitive function? So, you said that insomnia improved, and so improved also your primary outcome, which was the scale of the FACT-Cog questionnaire. But did you see whether this improvement in cognitive function was really related and associated to the improvement that you observed in insomnia? Dr. Sheila Garland: Yeah. So that was a very, very important question. We needed to first demonstrate that there was a relationship between the intervention and insomnia, and then there was a relationship between insomnia and cognition. And then we did some mediation analyses subsequent to determining both of those, and we found that the change in insomnia was a full mediator of the change in cognition. So we were able to say that it's not just time or it wasn't related to something else, that improving sleep did have this direct effect on the improvement that patients reported in their cognitive impairment.  Dr. Davide Soldato: We spoke a lot about the subjective improvement in cognitive performance. But you said that you also evaluated some specific and objective scale with, for example, I imagine some neuropsychological tests. Did you also observe some improvement for those specific tests, and did you observe the same amount of benefit or the same improvement, we could say, between the subjective and the objective weight of measuring cognitive function?  Dr. Sheila Garland: I think that's where the outcomes become a little less clear. So, we did measure performance based cognition at all of the time points, and we were very careful in selecting these measures. So we followed the guidance provided by the International Task Force on Cognition and Cancer. They had some very specific recommendations about how and what measures we use. So we made sure to use measures that were able to be repeated, so that had multiple forms, that had very identifiable ways to indicate improvements. So we used the Hopkins Verbal Learning Test to measure word recall, both immediately and delayed. We used measures to look at verbal fluency and working memory. Overall, we had six different specific aspects of cognition that we were looking at, immediate word recall, delayed word recall, word retention, verbal fluency, word recognition, and working memory. Some of those presented with a different pattern of change overall. So a little bit trickier to interpret than the person's perception of their own cognition. Dr. Davide Soldato: That's very interesting because it's important to have this kind of objective assessment. But in the end, what we are really trying to target is a symptom that is distressing for cancer survivors. I'm not even sure that sometimes we need all of this detail, or at least that even if these outcomes that are more objectively measured, we do not observe the same amount of benefits. Still, if we are able to produce an improvement in the symptoms and the perception that the survivor or the individual or the patient, whoever we are trying to help in that specific moment and for those specific symptoms, reports an improvement, I think that is already very important. And I totally share the patient oriented approach that you followed in the study.  Going back a little bit to the population, because I think that this speaks a little bit also to potential avenues for further research. You included a population of cancer survivors who completed treatment at least six months before being enrolled in the trial. And relating to the population, I had two questions. So the first one is, do you think that you would have the same kind of results, so the same benefit, also among a population of patients who's in active treatment? And then the second one is a little bit more speculation, but do you think that we will arrive, or do you envision research where we kind of deliver this type of intervention in sort of a preventative way? So if we would be able to identify those patients who might later develop these types of symptoms, could we use this type of intervention sooner? So can we prevent these symptoms even before they appear? And could this be potentially associated also in a less symptoms developed over time and less need to treat these symptoms when they become more severe?  Dr. Sheila Garland: Those are two very, very good questions. The first one is regarding the population. You're right. These people were at least six months out of treatment, and we wanted to make sure that if there was any temporary disruption, that would have maybe been stabilized over that. But most of the people in this trial, and I will mention that we didn't focus on any specific cancer type or site. So this was really a heterogeneous group of cancer survivors, both male and female. The most prevalent diagnosis that we had was breast. But some of these people who were enrolled in the trial had advanced cancer, and as long as their cancer treatment, their regimen was stable, they were eligible to participate in the trial. So I think that's a very important point. If somebody is on a very intensive round of chemotherapy, it can be tricky to implement some of the more aggressive behavioral changes that can come with some of these insomnia treatments, because their level of wellness just isn't there. So during active treatment it can be challenging, but it is definitely not impossible. We would just tweak things a little bit to accommodate their physical well being at that time.  To your next question, though, this is where I think we really need to be going. Just like they've done in the area of, like, physical activity, trying to really strengthen people prior to treatment is the way to go. Because some of my other research looked at symptoms prospectively from the time of diagnosis over the first year, and it's roughly about half of people, at least, this was in my work with women with breast cancer, about half of women with breast cancer come into treatment with clinically significant sleep problems. So, a proportion of those people just continue to have sleep problems or even get worse after it. So there's definitely a role for that, sort of like rehabilitation, not only for maybe physical fitness to try and ward off fatigue, but also getting their sleep on track. I think people are really focused, especially in that early time, about like, “I want to eat right, I want to exercise,” but I say it as many times as I possibly can, that you're not going to make healthy food choices, and you're not going to be getting out there and working out if you're not getting sufficient sleep. So we really need to have sleep there as the foundation and what supports all of those other healthy lifestyle behaviors that people are trying to change. Dr. Davide Soldato: So sort of comprehensive intervention for people undergoing treatment where we kind of identify symptoms that are already there at the beginning, and we deliver some sort of intervention that can target a lot of those symptoms, maybe not all of them, but maybe improving also the way that treatment is perceived or the toxicity that they might develop over treatment. Dr. Sheila Garland: And that's what I think. I think that if you're taking people who are already coming into treatment, that are looking after their health in ways that they can, they may be able to tolerate more aggressive treatments, they might be able to complete more rounds of chemotherapy, just getting them strong, going into treatment that way.  Dr. Davide Soldato: Also still focusing on that very patient oriented perspective that I think it's very important in general for oncologists and also for patients. I think that you were very wise in choosing an intervention that could be also delivered virtually, and this was one of the bases of the intervention. And regarding also the way the intervention was delivered, I had a question regarding the fact that this was actually an intervention that was delivered by professionals. But we also have some, maybe initial evidence, that suggests that some of this cognitive behavioral therapy can also be experienced, or at least the benefits can be obtained by the patients, even when it's self directed. So programs where patients are not actually interacting with a professional, but they are just following these types of programs. So do you think that there is room for both of those? And maybe should we suggest this type of self directed programs for all patients or all survivors and then just refer only those with a more significant or important symptom severity for the intervention with professionals? And this, I think, also goes to the discussion that we had at the very beginning about allocation of resources and ability also to tailor these types of interventions to the needs of different individuals. Dr. Sheila Garland: I think that's really important to consider when looking at what's available for patients. They did a survey in the US of NCI Cancer Centers where they looked at the availability of CBT-I, and it was very low. I think around 20% or so of NCI Comprehensive Cancer Centers had the ability to refer to in-house CBT-I. If we had sort of a stepped care model like you're talking about, we may be able to more appropriately allocate people to the level of care that they need. A line of my research now is going into a specific app delivered cognitive behavior therapy for insomnia tailored to cancer survivors. And so looking at that very point, not everybody needs a provider, but I think that a self help manual or an app is also not going to work for everybody. So you're not going to completely take out the person. And depending on the complexity of the situation that the patient finds themselves in, they may really need that provider to consider all of the other factors. They might need it to encourage adherence or address maybe some of the barriers that would be getting in the way. So having different levels of care and being able to match people not only to the level of care, but also maybe by their preference. So, “I'd like to use an app.” Great, we've got an app for you. Or “I'd like to see somebody.” And I think matching it to people's preferences automatically encourages or enhances their engagement and their motivation to complete because they're getting what their preference would be. Dr. Davide Soldato: And I think that at least if we could use a little bit more of these types of apps or tools or whatever we have out there, maybe we could increase at least that 20%. For example, if only 20% of NCI Cancer Centers, which are already places where care is delivered, probably with a higher attention to these types of symptoms for survivors compared, for example, to community hospitals or to smaller private clinics. So if we could at least have sort of a base and then refer only those that maybe have a higher need for a provider directed therapy or intervention, that maybe would also improve outcomes for a larger part of the population of survivors.   And one other thing that I wanted to ask you is, do you think, in your experience, because this was not really in the trial that you designed, but do you think that we also need cultural adaptation of these types of programs? Meaning, do we need to diversify based, for example, on ethnicity or level of education or, I don't know, just the background that the patient is experiencing? Dr. Sheila Garland: Yeah, very, very good points. There are some studies currently being conducted out of the United States that have looked at cultural adaptations of CBT-I specifically. So there was a trial looking at CBT-I for African American women survivors of breast cancer, and also the Latinx population as well. From the results of those trials, it didn't necessarily improve the effects of intervention, but it improved the engagement, so people were less likely to drop out. So it wasn't always the content. It was how the content was presented. So people were able to visually see themselves more, they were able to relate more to the content in just the way it was presented, which made them go, “Oh, okay. This is why I should be here.” And I think that that's part of the argument that I used for sort of adapting the cognitive behavior therapy for insomnia treatment that's being used in the general population, specifically to people who have had cancer, because people want to know, “All right. You know what? Is this safe for me to do? Will this work for me to do? How do I also do this when I have cancer related fatigue, or how do I do this when I also have pain?” So they want to know that, “Alright. This is right for me.” That's probably, again, relating more to getting people and keeping people engaged with the treatment, maybe even convincing them to do it to begin with, talking about getting buy-in from important leaders in their community to say, “This is something that I would recommend or I would endorse.” And those sort of community level endorsements maybe are just breaking down barriers to get people willing to engage with an evidence based treatment.  Dr. Davide Soldato: And I think especially with cognitive behavioral therapy, because I think that when we propose drugs for treating symptoms or, I don't know, intervention for losing weight or to be more physically engaged, well, the latter that I mentioned might be also a little bit more complicated, depending on the cultural context. But drugs are very easy to accept for the patients in most cases. But I think that cognitive behavioral therapy also has some type of cultural resistance, maybe among some of our patients and cancer survivors.  Dr. Sheila Garland: And I would also include oncologists in there as well. So, some of the treatment providers are not even exactly sure why would talking about this help. So I think separating it out, it's not just I'm going to talk about my sleep, it's that I'm going to engage with my sleep differently and breaking down maybe some of the stigma that, just because we're referring you to cognitive behavior therapy doesn't mean your problems are all in your head, but it means that there's ways that you can think about your sleep and ways that you can behave differently, which will reduce the things that are getting in the way of your sleep functioning the way that it should normally. I think when I talk to patients, and also when I do training with providers, I talk about how we can condition our bed to be associated with things other than sleep. So if we repeatedly snack in front of the tv, even though we've just had supper maybe a half an hour before, if we go and sit down in that chair that we always snack in, we're not hungry, but we find ourselves reaching for something to eat. The same thing can happen at night, where if you repeatedly pair your bed with things other than sleep, if you're thinking in bed, if you're planning, if you're worrying, if you're ruminating, if you know you're doing anything, if you're on your screen or you're watching tv or you're doing anything that's arousal producing, people can find that they're so tired, they're nodding off on the couch. They go up to bed, and all of a sudden, bang, they're wide awake and their mind is turning and they're thinking and they're like, “Why is this happening to me? I was just tired. I was so tired.” People with insomnia can relate to that very easily. That, “Oh, okay. So there's this conditioned association between my bed and wakefulness. How do I get rid of that?” That's where what we think and what we do around our sleep, we can change to be able to make our bed someplace that is strongly associated with sleep and not all of those other activities.  Dr. Davide Soldato: Thank you for the remarks on oncologists and sometimes our resistance to accept this type of intervention. I think that this also speaks to the merit of the Journal of Clinical Oncology, which publishes high level evidence also on symptom management, and these types of interventions that are, in the end, effective for our patients.  So I think that this concludes our interview for today. Thank you again, Dr. Garland for joining us.  Dr. Sheila Garland: Thank you Dr. Soldato.

The Connection Between Sleep and Weight Loss Hello beautiful humans, thank you for listening and supporting the Thrive Forever Fit Show. It truly means the world to me that you take time out of your precious day to listen to me ramble and rant about things I found entertaining, engaging, and meaningful.  SPONSOR: F.L.E.X. ~ Visit: ThriveForever Fit F.L.E.X. For Details Flexible ~ Lifestyle ~ Eating ~ Xercise Program ✅ Weight Loss Without Diet  ✅ No Pills, Potions or False Promise To Purchase  ✅ Expert Level Support and Accountability  ✅ Transformation From A Dieters Mindset To A Lifestyle That You Can Live With Forever In today's episode I discuss the importance of quality sleep and the crucial role it plays in weight loss.  Here are a few reasons why sleep is so important: Sleep affects appetite hormones: Sleep deprivation can disrupt the balance of hormones that regulate hunger and fullness, including leptin and ghrelin. This can lead to increased feelings of hunger and cravings for high-calorie foods, which can make it more difficult to stick to a healthy eating plan. Sleep affects metabolism: Sleep loss can also disrupt the body's metabolism, making it harder to burn calories and lose weight. This is because sleep deprivation can lead to insulin resistance, which can impair the body's ability to use glucose for energy. Sleep affects energy levels: When you're tired, you're more likely to skip workouts or physical activity, which can slow down weight loss progress. Sleep affects stress levels: Chronic sleep deprivation can increase stress levels, which can trigger the release of cortisol, a hormone that can promote fat storage and make it harder to lose weight. Overall, getting enough high-quality sleep is an important part of any weight loss program. Aim for 7-9 hours of sleep per night, and prioritize good sleep habits Plus:  *The 5 Stages of Sleep *9 Steps You Can Start Now To Improve Your Sleep *Supplements That Help You Sleep If you love the show, it would mean the world to me if you'd like it, share it, and review it.

For Details Flexible ~ Lifestyle ~ Eating ~ Xercise Program ✅ Weight Loss Without Diet  ✅ No Pills, Potions or False Promise To Purchase  ✅ Expert Level Support and Accountability  ✅ Transformation From A Dieters Mindset To A Lifestyle That You Can Live With Forever In today's episode I discuss the idea/concept of “Aggressive Patience ” ~ TY to Andy Frisella for initiating the thought process.  I don't know if this will make any sense, but here ya go ~ brain dump by Jay:  The aggressive pursuit of success (goals, dreams, purpose, happiness, wealth, health, positive connections: AKA what I refer to as ABUNDANCE)…Coupled with the peace of mind that I'm on the right path with the right people pursuing my purpose and that my vision for my life is so big it's going to take time (the patience piece of the puzzle).  And during that “time,” I can find/have fulfillment in the journey/process, knowing that what I desire is a moving target based on the expansion of thoughts, abilities, resources, and opportunities. So as I grow, it also grows with me.  And based on this belief system, I will never truly reach “that place” in time because it is infinite in its scoop, but so are the rewards of being on the path, so it's a net positive outcome.  I think it's my rationale for doing everything I can to be successful and wondering if it is enough and the logic of knowing that true greatness takes time and patience and the belief that my life as it stands today is abundant and awesome.  This might be the conundrum of all that seek more ~ not sure, but I suppose the certainty of being uncertain keeps me wanting more.  If you love the show, it would mean the world to me if you'd like it, share it, and review it.

Dr. Ardavan Asile “The standard for spinal surgery in America is dishonest and dangerous.” Hello beautiful humans, thank you for listening and supporting the Thrive Forever Fit Show.

For Details Flexible ~ Lifestyle ~ Eating ~ Xercise Program ✅ Weight Loss Without Diet ✅ No Pills, Potions or False Promise To Purchase ✅ Expert Level Support and Accountability ✅ Transformation From A Dieters Mindset To A Lifestyle That You Can Live With Forever “The standard for spinal surgery in America is dishonest and dangerous.” ~ Dr. Ardavan Asile Dr. Ardavan Aslie is a board-certified spine surgeon who received his undergraduate education at the University of California, Berkeley, where he double-majored in physiology and genetics. He earned his MD from New York Medical College and completed his residency at St. Vincent's Hospital in New York City while working with some of the world's most renowned scoliosis surgeons; he received his spine surgery fellowship training at Harvard University. In addition to his private practice, Dr. Aslie has been active in researching and developing cutting-edge treatments for osteoporotic and aging spines. In this episode we talk about the broken standard of care in spinal surgery and the jaw-dropping layers of corruption that have led to more than 30 years of the surgical implantation of a small, but dangerous screw – a screw that continues to be used to this very day, including by Dr. Aslie himself.

Myth Buster Weight Loss Edition: Carbohydrates Are Essential For Life Hello beautiful humans, thank you for listening and supporting the Thrive Forever Fit Show. It truly means the world to me that you take time out of your precious day to listen to me ramble and rant about things I found entertaining, engaging, and meaningful. SPONSOR: F.L.E.X. ~ Visit: ThriveForever Fit F.L.E.X. For Details Flexible ~ Lifestyle ~ Eating ~ Xercise Program ✅ Weight Loss Without Diet ✅ No Pills, Potions or False Promise To Purchase ✅ Expert Level Support and Accountability ✅ Transformation From A Dieters Mindset To A Lifestyle That You Can Live With Forever Truth: There is NO such thing as an essential carbohydrate! That statement is 100% factual and non-debatable, but let's be honest, the carb community hates it and will try to come up with every scenario in the book to make it not true. But it's as "they" like to say science. Now let's dissect the statement. It doesn't say they you shouldn't eat carbohydrates. It doesn't say you can't be healthy if you choose to eat carbohydrates. It doesn't even say carbohydrates are BAD for you. All it states is that there is NOT an essential carbohydrate, so carbohydrate consumption is unnecessary for survival. Let me explain further and help with the science of how the body actually works in real life and not on social media. Your body does NEED glucose to survive, but that glucose does not need to be ingested in the form of a carbohydrate. The body has elegant mechanisms that allow it to utilize non-carbohydrate substrates to generate glucose. This process is called Gluconeogenesis. Gluconeogenesis is a metabolic pathway in which the liver produces glucose from non-carbohydrate substrates, including glucogenic amino acids (from protein) and glycerol (from lipids). WOW ~ right! Now let's get back to the statement's keyword, ESSENTIAL. There are essential fatty acids (FAT) and essential amino acids (PROTEIN) that, if you do not ingest, you will die. The term essential fatty acids refers to those polyunsaturated fatty acids that must be provided by foods because these cannot be synthesized in the body yet are necessary for survival. They are Linoleic acid and Alpha Linolenic acid. There are nine essential amino acids that you must get through your diet — histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, tryptophan, and valine. They're vital for functions throughout your body, including protein synthesis, tissue repair, and nutrient absorption ~ AKA: LIFE If you love the show, it would mean the world to me if you'd like it, share it, and review it.

Weight Loss Without Deprivation SPONSOR: F.L.E.X. ~ Visit: ThriveForever Fit F.L.E.X. For Details Flexible ~ Lifestyle ~ Eating ~ Xercise Program ✅ Weight Loss Without Diet ✅ No Pills, Potions or False Promise To Purchase ✅ Expert Level Support and Accountability ✅ Transformation From A Dieters Mindset To A Lifestyle That You Can Live With Forever You CAN Lose Weight Without Depriving Yourself! Here are some tips for losing weight without feeling deprived: 1. Practice Mindful Eating: Instead of rushing through your meals or eating on the go, take time to sit down and focus on your food. Pay attention to the flavors, textures, and aromas, and savor each bite. This can help you slow down and avoid overeating. 2. Incorporate More Whole Foods: Focus on eating more whole, nutrient-dense foods such as grass fed and finished beef, free-range cage free chicken and eggs, healthy fats like avocado oil and grass fed ghee, low glycemic carbohydrates like berries, broccoli and asparagus. These foods are naturally lower in calories and can help you feel full and satisfied. 3. Don't Eliminate Foods, Moderation is Key: Instead of completely cutting out your favorite foods, try to eat them in moderation. Allowing yourself the occasional treat can help prevent feelings of deprivation and keep you on track. 4. Find Healthy Alternatives: If you have a sweet tooth, try finding healthier alternatives to your favorite treats. For example, you can try making protein pudding with fresh berries and dark chocolate or baking a batch of healthier cookies. (I can send you a delicious easy to make recipe) 5. Stay Hydrated: Drinking plenty of water can help keep you feeling full and prevent overeating. Aim to drink at least 8 glasses of water a day. 6. Get Moving: Regular exercise is essential for weight loss and overall health. Find an activity that you enjoy and make it a part of your routine. You can actually walk your way to weight loss. I've got a client that has lost over 130 pounds walking. Losing weight doesn't have to mean giving up everything you love. By focusing on healthy habits and making small, sustainable changes, you can reach your weight loss goals without feeling deprived. Remember to be kind to yourself, and celebrate your progress, no matter how small it may be. If you love the show, it would mean the world to me if you'd like it, share it, and review it.

Crystal's obsession with Peloton started in her forties as a corporate America employee never running more than a mile in her life to becoming an active athlete, personal trainer, and nutrition coach. As an early adopter of Peloton in 2016, the podcast has documented the evolution of Peloton; from plucky start-up to household name to cultural phenomenon. She's also interviewed hundreds of fellow Peloton members as well as Peloton executives and instructors. The first mile she ever ran was at 41 years old, she didn't know how to swim, and she had plenty of bad health habits. Now a certified personal trainer, nutrition coach and competitive athlete living her best fitness life and inspiring others to make the same changes, she owes it all to the cultural phenomenon of Peloton. Before finding Peloton, Crystal O'Keefe was a corporate America employee, stuck in the mundane and inactive lifestyle of sitting at a desk and sitting on the couch. Once she found Peloton, her passion for the science behind health and exercise was ignited. As an early adopter of Peloton in 2016, Crystal knows the community inside out, from the instructors, to the classes, to the science of each workout. As her passion for fitness and Peloton grew, so did her desire to spread her love and knowledge of fitness through podcasting. Her show, The Clip Out, has documented the evolution of Peloton; from plucky start-up, to household name, to viral sensation. She's also interviewed hundreds of fellow Peloton members, as well as Peloton executives and instructors to get the inside scoop on all things Peloton.

SPONSOR: F.L.E.X. ~ Visit: ThriveForever Fit F.L.E.X. For Details Flexible ~ Lifestyle ~ Eating ~ Xercise Program ✅ Weight Loss Without Diet ✅ No Pills, Potions or False Promise To Purchase ✅ Expert Level Support and Accountability ✅ Transformation From A Dieters Mindset To A Lifestyle That You Can Live With Forever Have you ever stopped to think about your relationship with food? Is it healthy, or is it abusive? Your relationship with food might be the very thing that is making it difficult for you to lose weight and get healthy. The most common signs of a bad relationship with food are Overeating, Stress Eating, and Obsessing (over-thinking) about food. Overeating is a common problem that many people face, and it can lead to weight gain, poor health, and an unhealthy relationship with food. Stress eating, using food as comfort, obsessing about food, and stressing about food are all part of this problem. Deprivation and starvation diets are often used as solutions to overeating, but they can be detrimental to one's health in the long run. Fad diets have become increasingly popular in recent years as a quick fix for weight loss but don't usually lead to long-term results. It is important for you to understand your relationship with food and find healthier ways of dealing with stress or emotional issues so that you can maintain a healthy lifestyle. In this episode, I offer you a non-dieting solution for repairing and creating a positive and powerful relationship with food. If you love the show, it would mean the world to me if you'd like it, share it, and review it. That's the only way I can help more people and continue to fulfill my mission of helping others overcome pain and start living a life of peaceful passion. ❤️ ~ Jay If you'd like to join my FREE Facebook group, where we dive into strategies and tools needed for a successful life, I'd LOVE to have you.

For Details Flexible ~ Lifestyle ~ Eating ~ Xercise Program ✅ Weight Loss Without Diet ✅ No Pills, Potions or False Promise To Purchase ✅ Expert Level Support and Accountability ✅ Transformation From A Dieters Mindset To A Lifestyle That You Can Live With Forever The biggest lie and marketing scam in the weight loss world is the “New Year's Resolution.” Unfortunately, this marketing tactic has been around since the beginning of time and has produced a worse return on investment than crypto. Depending on which resource you look at, the data shows that only around 8% of New Year's Resolutions will actually be achieved. That's absolutely bonkers! No one with any sense would invest their hard-to-come-by time or health, for that matter, into a failing formula like the NYR. Your success solution to overcome the failure of the famous New Year's Resolution is to… #1 Create a Solution instead of a resolution ~ Solution > Resolution #2 Do What's Required ~ Stop trying and simply do what is required to achieve the goal you set for yourself. Regardless of how motivated you are initially, the process will have challenges, roadblocks, or adversity (AKA: Life). When you are presented with the opportunity to quit ~ DON'T! Remind yourself that this is part of the process and your success is on the other side of the adversity. If you love the show, it would mean the world to me if you'd like it, share it, and review it.

On this week's episode of the Genetic Genius Podcast,  Jessica Alana discusses biohacking foundations for optimizing health and how to use biohacking tools to support the body in proccessing tragedy, grief and loss.  Jessica Alana is a scientist passionate about bridging the gap between alternative medicine and data-backed science. ​In 2019, Jessica suffered an extremely traumatic event and lost faith in traditional medicine after witnessing a loved one drugged up and dumped from doctor to doctor. This, confounded by a deep knowing that the pharmaceutical industry thrives on us never finding the root cause of our ailments, sparked Jessica's journey into self-love, self-healing and self-help. Being confident in scientific research and clinical data, she decided to compile her own knowledge and become an expert biohacker.  Since then, Jessica has been accredited by key thought leaders within the health and wellness space and is a frequent contributor to publications and a highly sought-after speaker. Jessica's deep learning of the body's anatomy, physiology and concepts of disease gives great depth to understanding her client's needs. Jessica aims to inspire people with her own healing journey and an open mind. Jessica is an avid believer in plant-based medicines such as psychedelics and wishes to help people understand that these compounds were given to us as a gift from Mother Nature.  Jessica Alana's mission is to help those who, like herself, desire to live a life full of freedom, hope, fulfillment and connection. To educate and inspire, and to transmute pain into passion and love. To wake up every day and be grateful for the life you have created for yourself and to look back and know you have helped the lives of many.

The Future Of Fitness With Kathleen Trotter Hello beautiful humans, thank you for listening and supporting the Thrive Forever Fit Show. It truly means the world to me that you take time out of your precious day to listen to me ramble and rant about things I found entertaining, engaging, and meaningful. SPONSOR: F.L.E.X. ~ Visit: https://www.thriveforeverfit.com/program/ For Details Flexible ~ Lifestyle ~ Eating ~ Xercise Program ✅ Weight Loss Without Diet ✅ No Pills, Potions or False Promise To Purchase ✅ Expert Level Support and Accountability ✅ Transformation From A Dieters Mindset To A Lifestyle That You Can Live With Forever Thousands of people just like you have ditched the depression diets and transformed their lives with Thrive Forever Fit F.L.E.X. ~ You can and should be next. Kathleen's unique approach to fitness and coaching—namely, that a person's mindset and mental health is just as critical to their overall health as the number of hours they spend at the gym—sets her apart from many of her peers. Her commitment to improving the overall wellbeing of her clients rather than just helping them hit a number on the scale comes from a place of knowing what it's like to hate your body, as she grew up overeating, sneaking junk food and using every excuse she could think of to get out of gym class until, years later, Kathleen become her own health hero. For decades, the conventional wisdom has been that if you don't work out, it's because you're not motivated or disciplined enough. That fallacy has become a significant obstacle for people who may need a more innovative and personal approach to fitness and health.

I'm Losing Weight And Saving Money At The Same Time (3 Tips) Hello beautiful humans, thank you for listening and supporting the Thrive Forever Fit Show. It truly means the world to me that you take time out of your precious day to listen to me ramble and rant about things I found entertaining, engaging, and meaningful. In this episode, I answer the question, "where do I start?" Then, I will give you three simple and free (one will even save you money) tips on how you can start losing weight today. Using myself as an example, I decided to eliminate all unnecessary calories from my daily intake for the month of April. I found myself falling into the habit of eating a protein bar and/or coconut yogurt every single day. Not because I was hungry, but because it became a habit. This elimination will save me over 15,000 calories for the month of April. Plus, it's going to save me hundreds of dollars. I've also adopted the new habit of going on two wellness walks every day. Again, listen to the pod, and you'll understand why I love this new habit. Lastly, hydration, hydration, hydration, with temperatures rising, the need for more water and electrolytes is paramount. I use my Thrive Elite BCAA+ to ensure I'm also at maximum hydration. Hydration helps with metabolism, mood, and all metabolic activity inside your body. Tip #1: Eliminate Unnecessary Calories Tip #2: Increase your movement by 10% (this can be a simple walk) TIP #3: Hydrate Listen to the show for the details and strategies I use to make these three simple tips highly effective.

The C.I.A. Success Formula Hello beautiful humans, thank you for listening and supporting the Thrive Forever Fit Show. It truly means the world to me that you take time out of your precious day to listen to me ramble and rant about things I found entertaining, engaging, and meaningful. In this episode, I discuss the necessity for Clarity, Intention, and Action above everything else. Unfortunately, most people place all their focus on consistency and commitment. Today, I will show you how that might be leading you down a path of destruction and failure. The C.I.A. Success Formula: Clarity: the quality of being coherent and intelligible ~ the quality of transparency or purity. Intention: a thing intended ~ an aim or plan. Action: the fact or process of doing something, typically to achieve an aim. Most people SUFFER from consistently doing the wrong things, misguided or mismanaged commitment to failing thoughts and behaviors, and busy work or purposeful action. This suffering leads to anxiety. Anxiety is simply the anticipation of future pain. Secret: the cure for anxiety is purposeful action. Write this down: Action Alleviates Anxiety 3 Steps to Success: #1 Get Clarity ~ Decide what you truly want #2 Intention ~ Get intentional about your decisions and, more importantly, your life. Stop leaving things to chance, hopes and wishes. #3 Action ~ Take purposeful and passionate action that makes your life better. Then apply consistency and commitment to that formula, and you've got the recipe for a successful and abundant life. If you love the show, it would mean the world to me if you'd like it, share it, and review it. That's the only way I can help more people and continue to fulfill my mission of helping others overcome pain and start living a life of peaceful passion. ❤️ ~ Jay If you'd like to join my FREE Facebook group, where we dive into strategies and tools needed for a successful life, I'd LOVE to have you.

It truly means the world to me that you take time out of your precious day to listen to me ramble and rant about things I found entertaining, engaging, and meaningful.

Examples of how you could change your life drastically by making a different decision are: #1 Putting a stop to the negative self-talk #2 No more playing small and hiding in the shadows #3 No more hanging around those people that keep you down #4 No more treating your body like a garbage can #5 No more drama, gossip, or negativity Start living the life you deserve. It all starts with the decision to love yourself enough to stop allowing a life of nonsense. Try it ~ What's ONE thing you can start (or stop) doing today to give yourself some love?

Break The Chains Hello beautiful humans, thank you for listening and supporting the Thrive Forever Fit Show. It truly means the world to me that you take time out of your precious day to listen to me ramble and rant about things I found entertaining, engaging, and meaningful. In this episode, I talk about breaking the chains holding you back from truly living the abundant life you desire. The truth is that 11% of people desire more out of life. They believe that the better they are, the more they can be for the world. Sadly this means that 89% of us are ok with things exactly how they are and are unwilling and unmotivated to strive for me. This episode is for those who desire to be more. I believe we were all born for greatness, and with a strong belief and action, we can be, do and have everything we desire. Most people are held back by the metaphorical chains of: #1 The old story and who they believe they are. #2 Professional pressure to be something they don't want to be. #3 Societal conditioning to stand in line and shut up. The idea of breaking free from any of these three is unsettling, uncertain, and creates enough fear to cause us to settle for a life we don't even like. In this episode, I will expand on five things you can do that will help you remove the chains and live the life of your dreams. #1 Motivation ~ this is NOT what you think, so make sure you listen for the truth. #2 Momentum ~ without it, you will struggle and eventually quit. #3 Mindset ~ you can be a victim or victor, but you can't be both. #4 Movement ~ moving your body opens your brain up for change. #5 Management of Emotion ~ this is the game-changer. If you love the show, it would mean the world to me if you'd like it, share it, and review it. That's the only way I can help more people and continue to fulfill my mission of helping others overcome pain and start living a life of peaceful passion. ❤️ ~ Jay If you'd like to join my FREE Facebook group, where we dive into strategies and tools needed for a successful life, I'd LOVE to have you.
