As we age, the walls are closing in around us, and the actions you take and decisions you make TODAY are either speeding it up or slowing it down. So, I invited Dr. Thomas Seyfried onto the podcast to share a substantially researched and tested metabolic treatment for cancer that is both radically different from, but can also increase the efficacy of, the current standard of care. A professor of biology, genetics, and biochemistry at Boston College, Dr. Seyfried's research focuses on mechanisms of chronic diseases such as cancer, epilepsy, neurodegenerative lipid storage diseases, and caloric restriction diets. We discuss full treatment to prevention tactics - including how to use the Glucose-Ketone Index, steps for mitochondrial optimization of the entire human system, and how metabolic treatment can work in combination with more conventional cancer therapies. My team has also compiled the key findings and tools outlined by Dr. Seyfried, as well as links to the external resources we discussed, in this episode's free implementation guide. You'll learn: Why Cancer is a Disease of the Mitochondria How to Shift Cellular Energy Metabolism for Cancer Treatment How to Use the Glucose-Ketone Index for Metabolic Therapy Which Diet and Lifestyle Choices to Prioritize for Cancer Prevention Mentioned in this episode: BiOptimizers MagBreakthrough is the absolute BEST magnesium supplement on the market.

If you're familiar with my philosophy, you may already know that I see breathwork as one of the biggest gaps AND one of the biggest opportunities for performance enhancement… So many men, even those at the top of their athletic game, breathe inefficiently, and often in a manner that negatively impacts everything from metabolic function, to digestion, to strength output… But, once you have the right breathing tools to move forward with, you can VERY quickly take yourself to the next level. Whether it's in your ability to focus in your business, perform at your peak in the gym, or lead your family with unparalleled calm and wisdom - breath is a superpower. In today's episode, I deconstruct the most effective breathing practices from the world's top masters in the science of breath. I also detail out what works best for myself and my clients, and how YOU can break these practices down into daily action steps. For full episode implementation notes, pick up our episode guide, where my team has detailed the key takeaways for you.

It's my belief that the pinnacle of health involves having complete control over your nervous system - the highest performers on earth (mentally and physically) can "flip the switch" at a moment's notice… When it's time for the gold medal-winning race, or the moment that could make or break your career, you want the ability to turn ON - lightning fast. But the ability to intentionally downregulate your nervous system is an art of equal importance. The masterful skill of brain training is something today's guest, Dr. Drew Pierson, has spent years studying. In fact, to put it most accurately, he's taken the field of brain enhancement to another dimension… Dr. Pierson has advanced the medicine of neurofeedback therapy from simply treating pathology (such as depression, ADD, and sleep disorders) to enhancing the intricate structures and functions of leadership, wisdom, and awakened consciousness. The depth that Dr. Pierson brings to today's interview is truly monumental, and if you're someone who operates as a leader in your family, business, or community, I know you'll enjoy it as much as I did. We cover everything from the intentional training of specific brain wave states for flow, focus, and creativity, to which specific neurofeedback methods can help strengthen relationships, teams, and organizations - and MUCH more. This one dives deep, and you'll want to take notes - or, pick up our episode guide at muscleintelligence.com/learn, where I've detailed the key takeaways for you.
