Burn Fat While You Sleep, Boost Metabolism & Fast the Smart Way with guest expert Dr. William Li #64What if everything you've been told about metabolism, fat, and weight loss is wrong? In this episode, Samantha sits down with Dr. William Li for a second conversation in season 2 (Check out Episode #62, if you missed it - and Season 1 Episode #14 as well!).Dr. Li dismantles everything you thought you knew about metabolism, visceral fat, and intermittent fasting — revealing the science-backed strategies that let your body burn dangerous fat while you sleep, eat, and live your life.Dr. Li is an internationally renowned physician-scientist, president of the Angiogenesis Foundation, and New York Times bestselling author of Eat to Beat Your Diet — to expose the myths that have kept so many women stuck in a cycle of dieting, frustration, and self-blame.Spoiler: your metabolism is not broken. It never was.From the newly discovered science proving that human metabolism stays rock-stable from age 20 to 60, to the hidden danger of "skinny fat" and its shocking link to breast cancer, to the brilliantly simple 12-hour fasting protocol Dr. Li himself follows every day — this episode is a masterclass in working with your body instead of against it. Plus, the true origin story of the famous 16:8 intermittent fasting method that no one is talking about.WHAT YOU'LL LEARN:Your metabolism is NOT slowing down: Learn the findings from a landmark study of 6,000 people that completely rewrites what we thought we knew about metabolism — and where the real culprit actually lives.Fat is a hormone-producing organ: Discover why healthy fat is essential to your metabolic function, and what happens to your hormones when it starts to grow out of control.Excess fat behaves like a tumor: Find out why Dr. Li says too much body fat follows the same dangerous playbook as cancer — and why that makes chronic inflammation so much more urgent to address.Skinny fat is a real and serious risk: Learn what a 13-year Cornell study found when it scanned nearly 3,500 normal-weight women — and why the results are a wake-up call for women who think they're in the clear.Foods that burn fat at the cellular level: Discover which everyday grocery store foods contain natural bioactives that work against fat growth — and how they do it without you changing everything on your plate.The tape measure test: Find out why your waistline tells a more accurate story about your health than your BMI, your scale, or your body size — and how to use it at home for free.Why 12 hours of fasting is enough: Learn the surprisingly achievable protocol Dr. Li follows himself every single day — and why the research says you don't need to go longer to see real results.The truth about 16:8: Discover the origin story of the most popular intermittent fasting method — and why its famous time window has almost nothing to do with human science.Insulin is the metabolic switch: Understand the simple biological reason your body burns fat while you sleep — and how the timing of your last meal determines how hard it works overnight.Ultra-lean is not ultra-safe: Find out why the medical literature puts extreme leanness in the same dangerous category as extreme obesity — and what that means for how we define a healthy goal.About Our GuestDr. William Li is an internationally renowned physician, scientist, researcher, and author whose work has impacted over 70 diseases, including cancer, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. He is the founder and president of the Angiogenesis Foundation and is best known for his groundbreaking TED Talk, Can We Eat to Starve Cancer?, which has been viewed by millions worldwide. He is the New York Times bestselling author of Eat to Beat Disease and Eat to Beat Your Diet: Burn Fat, Heal Your Metabolism, and Live Longer.

Dr. William Li: Eat to Beat Disease, Extend Longevity, and Hack Your Vascular Health Your body already has a built-in cancer defense system, and the foods you eat can rival prescription drugs at activating it. In this episode, you'll discover what 720,000 living centenarians reveal about longevity, why microplastics are reaching your brain through your nose, and how your blood vessels hold the real key to biological aging. -Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Dr. William Li, an internationally renowned physician, scientist, and two-time New York Times bestselling author of "Eat to Beat Disease" and "Eat to Beat Your Diet." As President and Medical Director of the Angiogenesis Foundation, Dr. Li's groundbreaking research has led to the development of more than 40 new medical treatments impacting care for over 70 diseases including diabetes, heart disease, blindness, and obesity. His TED Talk, "Can We Eat to Starve Cancer?", has surpassed 11 million views, making him one of the most trusted voices at the intersection of functional medicine and food as medicine science. Together they dig into the biology of SuperAgers, the vascular markers that predict how long you'll live, and why flow-mediated dilation may be the most underrated biohacking measurement tool available today. Dave shares what happened after four separate gene therapies, including klotho and VEGF, and Dr. Li explains why your metabolism, mitochondria, and gut microbiome show up in the data on every centenarian ever studied. They also get into the microplastic crisis, the cribriform plate pathway that delivers airborne particles directly to your brain, and why your tongue is the first place your body quietly stores fat. You'll Learn: What centenarian research reveals about immune function, gut health, and vascular resilience Why 50% of food extracts matched or outperformed cancer drugs in head-to-head angiogenesis testing How microplastics travel through your nose directly to your central nervous system What flow-mediated dilation and pulse wave velocity tell you about your true biological age Why your hind-third tongue fat is an overlooked early warning sign for sleep apnea and metabolism problems What Dave's four gene therapies (klotho, VEGF, follistatin) actually did to his body How the vagus nerve connects gut health to brain optimization, stress resilience, and longevity Why genetics now accounts for roughly half of longevity outcomes, and what that means for the future of gene therapy How to use biohacking tools to compound your health the same way you compound financial returns Thank you to our sponsors! - Beyond Wonderland Conference | Oct 13 - 14, 2026.

NIO is playing a different game — and Motley Fool just called it out. While competitors chase export volume and watch margins collapse, NIO focuses on winning the domestic market with brand, tech, and community.William Li's warning that China's automotive golden era is over actually strengthens NIO's positioning in a mature, saturated market. Plus: Uber burned through its full 2026 AI budget by April, one company hit a $500 million Claude bill, enterprise AI costs are exploding, and founders are finally naming names on VC horror stories (including Sequoia passing on today's $87B Cloudflare). May jobs report (+172k) adds macro pressure for the new Fed chair.Real talk from Obi: NIO's strategy looks increasingly smart, the AI spending narrative is getting stress-tested, and capital allocation biases have real consequences.Dial Tone: A Modern Salesman's Story — my debut novel. Pre-order now on Amazon (E-book ready, hard copy June 12th).

Four stories today — all connected to the biggest monthin NIO's history.NIO has burned approximately 100 billion yuan — $14.6billion — over 8 years since William Li founded the companyin 2014. June is the verdict month. NIO delivered 67,061vehicles in April and May combined. To hit Q2 guidance of110,000-115,000 vehicles it needs 42,939 to 47,939 in Junealone. The ES9 is in its first full production month withover 50,000 pre-orders. Onvo L60 deliveries begin June 11.Gen 5 swap stations arrive mid to late June. NIO's shortinterest just hit a 32-month low — the bears are leaving.The setup has never been better.A major Chinese analysis this week asks why Chinese carsare getting bigger. The answer: margin pressure is forcingevery automaker upmarket into flagship territory whereprofits still exist. But the article makes a critical point —most brands launching flagships above 400,000 yuan arebystanders. Only brands with years of authentic premiuminvestment can actually convert those buyers. NIO has spent8 years building that identity. Most competitors have not.Lotus — the iconic British sports car brand owned by Geely —just walked back 8 years of all-electric commitment andis reintroducing hybrid powertrains. Pure EV was correctas a direction. But for a performance brand whose customerstrack their cars, range anxiety and charging limitationsmade the all-electric bet commercially unworkable. TheChinese internet put it perfectly: "Going fully electricwas correct. Retreating from fully electric is rational."NIO's battery swap network was built specifically to solvethe problem that just forced Lotus to retreat.Trump confirmed in a Wednesday interview that Iran hasalready agreed not to pursue nuclear weapons — and thatthe Strait of Hormuz could reopen as soon as this month.That triggers a sequence: oil drops, inflation falls,rate cut expectations return, growth stocks re-rate upward.Watch oil tonight. Watch Treasury yields. June could behistoric for your portfolio in more ways than one.

Four stories today — starting with the most importantweek in NIO's 2026 delivery story so far.NIO delivered 37,705 vehicles in May 2026 — up 62.3%year over year and up 28.4% from April's 29,356.Three brands all firing: 20,013 NIO brand, 12,029 Onvo,5,663 Firefly. Year-to-date deliveries hit 150,526 —up 68.7% year over year. Cumulative deliveries reached1,148,118. The ES8 has been the number one sellingvehicle above 400,000 yuan for five consecutive months.The ES9 has over 50,000 pre-orders — with deliveriesonly starting May 28th. June is when the ES9 volumereally arrives.William Li is reportedly preparing to take Mirattery —NIO's battery asset operator — public as his eighth IPO.Mirattery owns the batteries in NIO's 3,846 swap stations.It recently closed a Series C total of nearly 2 billionyuan with state-backed institutional investors. A MiratteryIPO gives the battery swap infrastructure its own publicvaluation — separate from NIO's stock price. NIOshareholders already own a piece of that business.The market hasn't priced it in yet.The May Chinese EV delivery rankings reshuffled.Leapmotor delivered 81,569 units — record high for thesecond consecutive month. Zeekr delivered 34,377 unitsup 81.81% year over year. Huawei HIMA delivered 46,122.Xiaomi exceeded 30,000 for the month. BYD delivered376,990 — ending its 8-month year-over-year declinestreak. The market is forming a barbell — premium brandsand value brands winning, the middle getting squeezed.NIO is firmly on the premium side of that barbell.The Iran 60-day MOU is still waiting for Trump'ssignature. Hormuz remains largely closed. Oil at $92.56.June brings Gen 5 swap stations, Onvo L60 launch, andES9 volume ramping. The setup for Q3 is building now.

Coffee Helpful or Harmful + Soy & Alcohol and the Truth About Breast Cancer with guest expert Dr. William Li #62What if the habits you already have — your morning coffee, your soy latte, your occasional glass of wine — are actually working for you, not against you? In this episode, Samantha sits down once again with William Li, MD, internationally renowned physician, scientist, and New York Times bestselling author of Eat to Beat Disease and Eat to Beat Your Diet, to cut through decades of nutritional myths and replace fear with facts.From the cancer-fighting compound hiding in your espresso, to the truth about soy and breast cancer risk that 14 published studies now confirm, to what your "healthy" stevia packet may secretly contain — Dr. Li delivers the kind of science-backed clarity that changes how you shop, eat, and think about food as medicine every single day. This is one of those episodes you'll want to share with every woman you love.What You'll LearnThe chlorogenic acid triple-threat: How the natural compound in coffee simultaneously lowers inflammation, activates brown fat to burn visceral fat, AND cuts off the blood supply to cancer cells.Organic coffee is more potent: Why pesticide-free farming causes the coffee plant to produce more chlorogenic acid — meaning organic beans are literally more medicinal.The dairy-in-coffee trap: How dairy fat forms "soap bubbles" around chlorogenic acid, blocking up to 20–30% of its absorption in your gut.Cellular aging and telomeres: How chlorogenic acid has been shown to slow the shortening of telomeres — the protective caps on your DNA — keeping your tissues and organs more vital, longer.The 1–4 cup sweet spot: What the clinical and epidemiological research says about optimal daily coffee intake and how not to get paralyzed by the math.The stevia label scandal: Why a "pure stevia" label can be deceiving — and how the filler erythritol, often hidden inside, has been linked by cardiologists to increased heart attack risk.Soy is nature's tamoxifen: How soy's phytoestrogen (genistein) has a completely different molecular structure than human estrogen — and actually blocks estrogen receptors the same way the breast cancer drug tamoxifen does.14 JAMA-level studies, one conclusion: Every single study examining soy consumption in women at high breast cancer risk found improved survival rates and lower recurrence — with no study showing increased mortality.The 10-gram soy protein target: How one tall glass of soy milk or a small portion of tofu delivers the daily amount studied in clinical trials for breast protection.Emulsifiers and your gut microbiome: Why additives like carrageenan, guar gum, and polysorbate in commercial coffee drinks and plant milks silently alter the healthy bacteria in your gut, raising systemic inflammation.About Our GuestDr. William Li is an internationally renowned physician, scientist, researcher, and author whose work has impacted over 70 diseases, including cancer, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease.

It's easy to think of mental health as something happening only in the brain. But more and more, we're seeing how closely it's tied to what's going on in the gut. Today, I'm joined again by Dr. William Li, a New York Times bestselling author. We discuss his latest book, Eat to Beat Your Diet, and how food, inflammation, and microbiome shape the way we think and feel. Watch the full conversation on YouTube, or listen wherever you get your podcasts - https://youtu.be/rY0OE-1blL0 In this conversation we discuss: • What if your anxiety or brain fog is actually a signal coming from your gut • Why gut health may be the missing piece in how we think about mental health • How everyday foods can either fuel inflammation or help calm your system • The compounds in real food that quietly support memory, mood, and mental clarity • Simple shifts that can help reset your system and support how you feel day to day Mental health isn't separate from the rest of the body. The more we understand that, the more it shifts where you look for answers. If you're looking for more support and community around this, the 10-Day Detox is designed to help reduce inflammation and support your body using real food.

Dr. William Li explores the fascinating science of brown fat, a specialised type of fat that acts like a cellular furnace to burn off harmful visceral fat. He reveals how a simple daily habit, like eating a single ripe tomato an hour before lunch, can trigger this fat-burning mode, potentially shrinking waistlines and reducing inflammation.  From the historical discovery of brown fat in hibernating animals to modern breakthroughs in PET scan technology, Dr. Li explains how we can use elemental eating and cold exposure to optimise our metabolism and reclaim our health. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN Eating one ripe tomato a day, particularly an hour before lunch, has been shown to activate brown fat and can lead to a reduction in visceral fat and waist circumference. Brown fat is packed with mitochondria that burn fuel to generate heat, especially when activated by certain foods or cold temperatures. Tomatoes are rich in bioactives like lycopene and beta-cryptoxanthin, which are absorbed into the bloodstream and directly fire up brown fat cells. Returning to a diet of whole, unprocessed foods allows the body to take full advantage of its natural metabolic hardware.

Five stories today — starting with the one every NIO investor needs to hear right now.A British Virgin Islands holding company called Charge Peak, which owns the patents of bankrupt Israeli startup Better Place, just sent NIO a cease-and-desist letter demanding $250 million — calculated as 2% of NIO's 2025 revenue. They're claiming NIO's battery swap network infringes three European patents.Here's why I'm not worried. This is not a lawsuit — it's a negotiating letter. Better Place went bankrupt in 2013. NIO was founded in 2014 and has been filing its own independent battery swap patents since 2017. NIO responded directly — their technology is "materially different" and developed through years of independent R&D. And the three patents cover European operations only — about 60 of NIO's 4,000 global swap stations.The timing is telling. This letter dropped the day before Beijing Auto Show with NIO stock up 95% in 12 months. That's not coincidence. That's a shakedown. Buy the dip if it comes.On the same day — NIO delivered its 100,000th third-generation ES8 in Beijing. 100,000 units above 300,000 yuan in a market where 56% of dealerships are losing money. William Li didn't pick that timing by accident.Israel and Lebanon extended their ceasefire three weeks after Trump personally joined the White House meeting. Three more weeks of breathing room for markets.Google dropped $750 million to help companies deploy AI faster — the real AI battleground is now implementation, not model building.And a startup called Noscroll launched an AI bot that does your doomscrolling for you. The irony for this channel writes itself.Beijing Auto Show media day is tomorrow. This channel covers everything.---

You have around 10,000 cancer cells in your body right now, but most never become dangerous. The science suggests cancer risk is not just about genetics, but how your body responds to these cells. So what can you do, day to day, to support your body's natural defences? In this episode, Dr William Li, a world-renowned physician, scientist, speaker, and two-time NYT Bestselling author, explains how everyday foods can fuel cancer growth or help your body keep it under control. We explore how cancer starts, why it is part of normal biology, and explain why lifestyle and environment are more important than genetics when managing your cancer risk. Dr Li shares simple guidance on eating patterns that support your body's defences, including increasing plant-rich foods and reducing ultra-processed foods.

Five stories that matter for your portfolio today.William Li held an internal NIO meeting and told his employees Q2 will be hard. Most CEOs would never say that out loud. Obi breaks down why that's actually the most bullish signal you could get — because honest CEOs outperform, and because Li already identified the solution.Q1 deliveries hit 83,465 vehicles — up 98.3% year over year. Revenue growth is expected to outpace delivery growth. ES9 early orders from non-NIO buyers are already 1.5 times the ES8 at the same pre-sales period. That's total addressable market expansion in real time.The broader Chinese auto industry is bleeding. The 200,000 yuan segment has become the kill zone. NIO operates above 300,000 yuan where margins still exist and brand matters more than spreadsheets.Sam Altman's World project is expanding to Tinder, Zoom, DocuSign, Shopify, and Okta. Iris scanning to prove you're human in an internet he helped make more confusing.A man hacked the US Supreme Court filing system, bragged about it on Instagram, and walked out with probation.And a disgruntled researcher dumped working Windows exploit code online because of a conflict with Microsoft. Criminals are actively using it. Every one of these stories is a tailwind for cybersecurity spending.Courtside Financial.

William Li said at the ES9 launch that people can now forget about MPVs. Buick — with 27 years of MPV history in China — responded publicly on Weibo and invited Li to sit in their new Century before making that judgment.Today Obi breaks down what's actually happening beneath the brand beef.The numbers tell the real story: 11.88 million SUVs sold in China in 2025 vs just 1.06 million MPVs — and the gap is growing. The market has already voted.The ES9 starts at 420K yuan, the Buick Century starts at 470K yuan. They're fighting for the same wallet. But the ES9 isn't just competing on product — it's competing on technology, ecosystem, and the kind of brand momentum that has people in Chinese restaurants talking about NIO stock for the first time.Buick's response is good marketing. But when a legacy brand publicly defends its category against you — that's not strength. That's confirmation you're winning the narrative.ES9 deliveries start June 1st. 46 days away.Courtside Financial.

Four stories today that all connect back to NIO and your portfolio.William Li took the stage at the China EV 100 Forum urging the entire Chinese auto industry to standardize batteries and chips — a move he says could unlock over $14 billion in industry-wide savings. NIO's own ES9 has over 4,000 chips from 1,000+ varieties. NIO is cutting internally to ~400 types.A 36Kr analysis reveals China's auto chip self-sufficiency is only 25% — 75% still imported. DRAM prices jumped 180% in 3 months as Samsung, SK Hynix and Micron redirect capacity to AI. One mid-tier smart EV's memory cost went from $100 to $290.The $29K pure EV sedan market is dominated by Tesla and Xiaomi — and 2026 may be the last window for anyone else to crack it.And Trump just announced a US Navy blockade of the Strait of Hormuz after 21 hours of failed peace talks in Islamabad. Experts warn elevated oil prices could persist through end of 2026 — making NIO's battery swap model more valuable every single day.Courtside Financial.

Most people think body fat is the problem. If you gain weight, the goal is simple: eat less, burn more, and try to get rid of it. But what if that way of thinking is fundamentally flawed? Today, I'm joined by Dr. William Li, a world-renowned physician and scientist who has led the development of more than 30 new medical treatments that impact care for over 70 diseases, including cancer, diabetes, blindness, heart disease, and obesity. Dr. Li has spent decades studying the biology of metabolism, fat, and disease. In his view, body fat itself is not the enemy. In fact, it plays a critical role in your health. The real problem begins when fat becomes excessive, dysfunctional, and inflammatory, disrupting the systems that regulate metabolism and energy balance. This shift in perspective changes everything.  

Most NIO investors are focused on delivery numbers. Not enough people are talking about the man leading the company and why he actually has something to lose.William Li founded NIO in 2014 with ~$150M of his own money.When the company was going bankrupt in 2020 he pledged his personal shares to fund $100M in emergency notes out of his own pocket. Then came the Hefei Miracle — a $1B lifeline from the Hefei government that saved the company.Today Obi breaks down that full story, explains why the 2026 $1.1B performance pay package is actually one of the most bullish signals in the NIO thesis, and covers Sam Altman getting a Molotov cocktail thrown at his house, Snap's AI glasses, StubHub's $10M FTC settlement, and YouTube raising Premium prices again.How quickly people forget.

For 25 years Japan dominated global auto sales. In 2025 Chinese brands sold nearly 2.7 billion vehicles — surpassing Japan for the first time since 2000. BYD ranked sixth globally, Geely eighth, both surpassing Honda and Nissan. But Obi gives the honest picture — Toyota still earns more profit per vehicle than every Chinese brand, North America remains almost entirely closed, and sales volume is not the same as business quality. He breaks down Q1 showroom data from ten Chinese EV brand stores visited without appointments — NIO owners bringing friends in to buy, Li Auto customers walking past the i6 electric to ask about range extended, Xiaomi's heat arriving and vanishing within a week. Leapmotor launches a 300,000 yuan flagship on April 16th targeting NIO's price segment — and faces the classic upmarket brand trap. And Waymo's permit battle in New York City against taxi unions proves exactly why William Li said no to robotaxi in 2024.

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. William Li — internal medicine physician, vascular biologist, and founder of the Angiogenesis Foundation — to talk about something we were never really taught in medical school: how specific foods work at a molecular level to prevent and even fight disease. We get into the science behind everyday foods like black coffee, soy, eggs, and oats — cutting through the myths and the fear-based messaging that has, frankly, done a lot of harm. Will walks us through why soy does not cause breast cancer (and may actually protect against it), why egg quality matters more than cholesterol fear, and what his lab's recent research on oats and wound healing reveals about the untapped potential of whole foods.  00:00 Introduction to Dr. William Li and Angiogenesis 01:06 The Role of Food in Health and Disease 02:36 Debunking Myths: Soy and Breast Cancer 07:30 The Importance of Nutrition Education in Medicine 09:58 The Truth About Eggs and Their Health Benefits 13:21 Recent Discoveries: Oats and Their Bioactive Properties 15:29 Innovative Wound Healing with Avananthramide 17:10 The Role of Diet in Cancer Treatment 17:56 Communicating Science to the Public 21:53 Empowering Patients Through Knowledge 24:00 Exploring Everyday Remedies: Coffee and Wound Healing 25:45 OuttroVVP.mp3 26:22 NEWCHAPTER Wish to help the show?

NIO hit its first quarterly profit in 11 years. Stock up 15% yesterday. Down 4% today. Up 16% on the week.Today I go deeper than the headlines and ask the harder question: did William Li actually win his long bet? And what comes next?WHAT WE COVER:— 100 billion yuan in losses over 11 years: what that road really means for long-term investors— Why NIO's 18% vehicle margin is more impressive than it looks given everything they were building simultaneously— The $2.5 billion battery swap bet — where it stands and what 10,000 stations by decade's end means for the moat— The ES8 carried Q4. Where is the next breakout model?— ES9, Onvo L80, and new large SUV all launching in 2026 — five large SUVs in market by H2— Full-year non-GAAP profitability: the real milestone to watch— $4.59 to $5.47 in five trading days — the bigger trendStill bullish.

Join Angela and Dr William Li for a look at the complex world of heart health and hormonal shifts, in which they tackle the often-confusing link between menopause and rising cholesterol levels, debunking common myths and providing clarity on the real risks of high LDL.  Dr. Li shares his expert insights on the nuances of heart disease prevention, the importance of blood sugar balance, and how a holistic, evidence-based approach can help you navigate these sudden health changes with confidence and balance. KEY TAKEAWAYS: High LDL cholesterol is linked to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease because it can build up as plaque in the arteries and impede blood flow. Total cholesterol levels are no longer the primary indicator of heart disease risk; instead, doctors focus on the ratio of "good" HDL to "bad" LDL cholesterol. While some people have genetic predispositions to extremely high cholesterol, modern medicine emphasises a more nuanced understanding of different cholesterol components. Maintaining blood sugar balance is crucial, but health influencers often exaggerate the dangers of minor "spikes" and "crashes" that are actually normal bodily functions. TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: 0:45 How LDL cholesterol sticks to artery walls like "Velcro," 1:42 How medical understanding has evolved from tracking total cholesterol to focusing on HDL/LDL ratios. 3:07 The influence of health influencers on public anxiety regarding blood sugar and cholesterol levels. 4:03 Importance of "homeostasis" and how the body naturally strives for balance in its systems.

We touch on gut and brain communication through the vagus nerve, the idea of dysbiosis versus infection, and why modern findings ask for humility in medicine. Here, I'm discussing practical takeaways like paying attention to how your body feels and using biohacking to monitor health when tests fall short.***This episode is sponsored by: NOWATCH: Health tracking reimaginedKnow your body, trust yourself.15% off with code LWBW15 at nowatch.com***The Great British Veg OutHow to support your gut, energy, and hormones by eating more — not less.

In this episode of Live Well Be Well, I'm joined by Dr. William Li, physician scientist, bestselling author, and president of the Angiogenesis Foundation. William is one of the world's leading voices on food as medicine, and together we explore how nutrition, immunity, and brain health are deeply connected, often in ways we underestimate.In this conversation, Dr. William Li shares how the body's defence systems are constantly communicating with the brain, influencing inflammation, cognition, mood, and ageing. Drawing on decades of research, he explains how everyday foods can strengthen immunity, protect blood vessels, and support brain function, not through restriction or perfection, but through consistent, nourishing choices.We discuss why immune health matters far beyond avoiding illness, how inflammation silently impacts mood and cognition, and why nourishing the body is one of the most accessible tools we have for long term resilience. This episode is an invitation to move away from fear based nutrition and toward a calmer, evidence led understanding of how the body heals, adapts, and thrives when supported consistently over time.Here's What We Dive Into:- How the immune system influences brain health, mood, and cognitive ageing.- Why chronic inflammation quietly undermines wellbeing long before symptoms appear.- What angiogenesis is and why healthy blood vessels matter for brain function.- How specific foods support the body's natural defence and repair systems.- Why food as medicine is about consistency, not restriction or perfection.- What the science really says about nutrition and disease prevention.- How everyday dietary choices shape long term resilience and longevity.- Why empowering people with knowledge creates healthier relationships with food.Love, Sarah Ann

Guest: Dr. William W. Li, NYT-Bestselling Author of Eat to Beat DiseaseOriginally Recorded: May 2022 on Nutrition Without CompromiseSponsor of Original Episode: ÖRLÖ Nutrition Co-Hosts: Corinna Bellizzi & Tia Walden This episode is shared with permission from Nutrition Without Compromise and ORLO Nutrition.  Episode Summary Today's bonus episode comes from the archives of a show I once hosted—Nutrition Without Compromise—a series created to explore nourishment that never sacrifices human health, planetary health, or ethical integrity. While Dr. Li has joined us on Care More Be Better a few times, this conversation has never before aired here, and it remains one of my favorites. Dr. William Li, internationally renowned physician, scientist, and author of the bestseller Eat to Beat Disease, breaks down the body's five health defense systems, the science of using food as medicine, and how we can personalize nutrition to strengthen immunity, support longevity, and reduce disease risk. We talk about dietary diversity, the joy of eating, the role of omega-3s, the pitfalls of low-quality supplements, and how modern research is reframing what it means to live vibrantly at every age. This episode originally aired under the sponsorship of ÖRLÖ Nutrition, makers of carbon-negative, algae-based omega-3s grown in Iceland using clean geothermal energy. Their commitment to regenerative nutrition aligned beautifully with the ethos of that show—and with the work we continue here. Topics We Cover Dr. Li's journey from medical researcher to food-as-medicine pioneer The Five Health Defense Systems: angiogenesis, stem cells, microbiome, DNA protection, and immunity Why dietary diversity—not restriction—is the foundation of vibrant health How food can enhance medical treatments, not just prevent disease The rise of planetary-aware eating and the importance of responsible sourcing Omega-3s: fish vs. algae, and why quality matters The 5x5x5 framework for daily eating without rigidity How lifestyle, joy, and cultural food traditions shape well-being Dr. Li's free masterclasses and practical tips for getting started Referenced In This Episode Eat to Beat Disease by Dr. William W.

China EVs & More is back with a special Thanksgiving episode — and the China auto world did not take the week off.

Dr. Michael Greger reveals that the number one cause of death in America isn't cancer or heart disease alone, it's our diet, which kills more people than cigarette smoking every year. His grandmother was given a medical death sentence at 65, confined to a wheelchair with end stage heart disease, yet she lived another 31 years to age 96 simply by changing what she ate. This personal transformation inspired him to abandon traditional medicine's drug and surgery approach and dedicate his life to uncovering how food can prevent, arrest, and even reverse our leading killers. You'll walk away understanding that only 25% of your lifespan is determined by genetics, the rest is in your control through lifestyle choices you can start making today.Dr. Grerger's books:How Not to DieThe How Not to Die CookbookHow Not to DietHow to Survive a PandemicThe How Not to Diet CookbookHow Not to AgeThe How Not to Age CookbookLower LDL Cholesterol Naturally with FoodIn this episode you will:Discover why the American diet is deadlier than cigarette smoking and how simple food swaps can add 14 years to your lifeLearn the five core foods that Blue Zone populations credit for living to 100 with vitality and how to incorporate them into every mealUnderstand why eating breakfast and skipping dinner is more powerful for longevity than the reverse, based on your circadian biologyMaster the potassium salt switch that clinical trials show can reduce your risk of premature death by 40% with zero downsideBreak free from the confusion about supplements and processed foods by learning why whole plant foods contain thousands of compounds science hasn't even discovered yetFor more information go to https://lewishowes.com/1856For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960More SOG episodes we think you'll love:Dr. Jessica Knurick – greatness.lnk.to/1845SCDr. William Li  – greatness.lnk.to/1410SCGlucose Goddess – greatness.lnk.to/1575SC Get more from Lewis!

Dr. Jessica Knurick reveals a truth most nutrition experts won't admit: our food system is designed for profit, not health, and over half of American adults are living with chronic disease as a result. As a science-based dietitian who lost her grandfather to preventable illness at 60, she's spent her career fighting back against fear-mongering and misinformation that keeps people confused and sick. In this eye-opening conversation, she exposes why seed oils aren't the villain everyone claims, how ultra-processed foods hijack your brain to make you overeat 500 calories a day, and why the most effective health advice is actually boring. You'll walk away understanding that 90 percent of nutrition science is settled and simple, but social media algorithms profit from making you believe everything is controversial and complicated.Dr. Jessica Knurick on SubstackDr. Jessica Knurick on InstagramIn this episode you will:Discover why our food system is engineered for the majority of people to fail at health, not succeed, and how this affects every choice you makeUnderstand why over 90 percent of Americans fail to meet basic vegetable and fiber intake while chronic disease continues its relentless climbBreak through the seed oil controversy by learning what the actual research shows versus what social media wants you to believe for clicksTransform your family's relationship with food using the inclusion method that gets kids excited about nutrition without the good food bad food trapMaster the art of spotting nutrition misinformation by recognizing fear-based hooks and learning who actually deserves your trust onlineFor more information go to https://lewishowes.com/1845For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960More SOG episodes we think you'll love:Dr. Mark Hyman – greatness.lnk.to/1695SCDr. William Li  – greatness.lnk.to/1743SCGlucose Goddess – greatness.lnk.to/1575SC Get more from Lewis!
