It’s estimated that 93% of Americans are metabolically unhealthy. These individuals have what’s called insulin resistance.A better description is hyperinsulinemia.When you have chronically high levels of insulin, you are going to store fat and build disease.I’m going to share with you a 5 step protocol to reverse insulin resistance once and for all!Your first step is to replace insulin producing foods with foods that lower insulin.This leads us to looking at macronutrients.We have 3 macros, carbohydrates, protein, and fat.As you see on the chart, carbohydrates will produce the MOST insulin inside your body.The second method to reverse insulin resistance is eliminate snacking and practice time restricted feeding…The third way to reverse insulin resistance is with block fasting.The fourth way to reverse insulin resistance is to build lean muscle.

#865 Use This ONE Simple Technique (As Easy as Breathing!) to Reset Your Body and Mind with Pavel Stuchlik

Today, I am blessed to have Pavel Stuchlik here with me. NOA|AON, also known as Pavel Stuchlik, with over 15 years of experience traveling the world and immersing himself in some of the most rigorous teachings, NOA has become an expert in transformation, self-realization and harmonious living. Pavel emphasizes the profound impact of breath on life and awareness, viewing it as a gateway to controlling the conscious mind, reducing stress, and enhancing heart rate variability. He introduces the concept of "instant presence," a three-part practice combining breathwork, body awareness, and stillness, which helps anchor individuals in the present moment. By practicing techniques like six-second inhales and exhales, combined with a focus on bodily sensations, Pavel encourages a deeper connection between mind and body. He explains how breathwork can alter states of consciousness, calm the nervous system, and foster self-awareness. Pavel highlights the importance of learning from every situation in life, urging individuals to remain conscious of their choices and use breath as a powerful tool for self-regulation.Pavel emphasizes that the most valuable biohacks are often the simplest and free—such as light, air, and grounding—and that the key to true transformation is to "unhack" everything we've been conditioned to believe. We can unlock our natural psychic senses or spiritual gifts by reconnecting with our inner guidance. He advocates for questioning everything and using breathwork to tap into a deeper consciousness. Pavel believes in a holistic approach that balances physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health, integrating these practices into his "System Reset" methodology, which merges biohacking with shamanic and spiritual wisdom. His teachings encourage a shift from rigid discipline to a more playful and intuitive approach to life, underpinned by listening to the inner whispers that guide us on our highest path.Listening to the end of the episode with Pavel is essential because it offers a powerful reflection on how breathwork, meditation, and intentional breaks from daily life can transform not just your inner state but your entire outlook on life. Pavel shares deep insights into surrendering to the present, reconnecting with purpose, and fostering a lifestyle prioritizing balance, creativity, and genuine connection. His personal experiences, like spending time in darkness and engaging in deep self-reflection, inspire a shift from burnout to living authentically in alignment with your highest self.Resources from this episode:  Website: https://noaaon.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/noaaonofficial/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4xaYYZPFzDya09Yom3R7dg Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/noaaonofficial X: https://x.com/noaaonoffic TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thenoavision On Demand: https://noaaon.com/pages/live-schedule-on-demand The Involution Community: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1vqu15KBoGHTTHHh-uIcSN8lCstDQVhPXblfmCchEpF4/edit 🔎 Find all of the Metabolic Freedom Sponsorship deals and coupon codes here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1MGMtuWpaOnDU_SQbowd29DLBgp76i3GQrvDeEg2Y0co/edit?usp=sharing

People treat symptoms like a game of Whac-A-Mole, trying to quickly “whack” away symptoms with medications, fad diets, surgeries, or other short-term fixes. These methods only address surface-level issues, leaving the root cause unchecked, which leads to recurring problems.Many of these recurring issues stem from chronic glucose and insulin spikes in the body.By addressing these spikes and becoming metabolically flexible, you can escape the Whac-A-Mole cycle of symptom-chasing and truly improve health.5 Ways Being a Sugar Burner Leads to Disease and Weight Gain Chronically Elevated Levels of Insulin Increased Oxidative Stress Depletion of Your Mitochondria Brain Disorders Cancer Growth RESOURCES MENTIONED: The Diabetes Method Program to reverse diabetes: http://www.diabetesmethod.comThe Keto kamp Academy program + coaching with Ben Azadi: http://www.ketokampacademy.com🔎 Find all of the Metabolic Freedom Sponsorship deals and coupon codes here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1MGMtuWpaOnDU_SQbowd29DLBgp76i3GQrvDeEg2Y0co/edit?usp=sharing

#861 The #1 Mistake Women Make With HRT and How You Can Get Your Metabolism Back with Kristin Johnson & Maria Claps

Today, I am blessed to have Kristin Johnson & Maria Claps here with me. Their personal and clinical experiences have taught them that midlife is a pivotal time in a woman’s life, often accompanied by unique challenges. They recognized a gap in specialized care for women over 40 and have made it their mission to fill it. While there's an abundance of health advice for women in their teens, 20s, and 30s, the messaging becomes unclear as women enter their 40s. Kristin and Maria believe that generalized health information isn’t sufficient—and in some cases, can even be harmful—for midlife women. Their goal is to empower women over 40 to take control of their health, ensuring that the next chapter of their lives is their best yet.Kristin and Maria emphasize that menopause is far more than just the loss of fertility and menstruation. They argue that menopause signifies a deeper metabolic change in the body that affects over 4,000 physiological processes, not just the commonly known symptoms like hot flashes and mood swings. Even women without symptoms are impacted by hormonal shifts and need to address them proactively. Their work offers a comprehensive deep dive into hormone replacement therapy (HRT), debunking myths and urging women to take control of their health during this life stage. They advocate for personalized, multi-faceted health approaches rather than one-size-fits-all solutions, emphasizing the importance of understanding hormonal changes.Kristin and Maria emphasize that many women are harming their bodies through excessive cardio, under-eating, and stress, perpetuating a cycle of catabolic damage. They highlight the importance of nourishment, stress management, sleep, and strength training for maintaining health, particularly as hormone levels decline with age. While optimizing hormones can help, it’s not a standalone solution; addressing the underlying stress is crucial for hormonal balance. They also discuss the need for a tailored approach to hormone therapy to not only alleviate symptoms but also reduce chronic disease risks, challenging the limited, symptom-focused perspective of mainstream menopause treatment.Tune in as Maria and Kristin emphasize that progesterone plays a significant role in women’s health; its effectiveness is tied to the presence of progesterone receptors, which fluctuate throughout the ovarian cycle and are mainly influenced by estradiol levels. They caution against relying solely on progesterone hormone replacement therapy, especially in perimenopausal women, where estrogen decline reduces the number of receptors, leading to symptoms like anxiety and mood dysregulation. They advocate for a more holistic approach, managing stress, balancing hormones, and incorporating oxytocin to ensure well-being and metabolic freedom.Resources from this episode:  Website: https://wiseandwell.me/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wise_and_well_/ The Great Menopause Myth: https://www.amazon.com/Great-Menopause-Myth-Mastering-Uncomfortable/dp/0760388261/benazadi-20 🔎 Find all of the Metabolic Freedom Sponsorship deals and coupon codes here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1MGMtuWpaOnDU_SQbowd29DLBgp76i3GQrvDeEg2Y0co/edit?usp=sharing

#857 How To Burn Belly Fat & Lose Flabby Skin Extremely Fast! - Do These 5 Things ASAP with JJ Virgin

Today, I am blessed to have JJ Virgin here with me. As a triple-board certified nutrition expert and Fitness Hall of Famer, JJ is a passionate advocate of nutrition’s healing power and is mission-driven to ignite a movement of women choosing to age powerfully. After decades of watching women strive to shrink themselves, JJ is urging women to step into their power—physically and personally. Using her principles of powerful aging, she inspires women to get strong, bold, and get what they want in life.In this episode, JJ emphasizes that many people focus on minor details, like specific diets or exercises, instead of prioritizing the big rocks—the major actions that make the biggest impact. First and foremost, she advises prioritizing protein at meals, especially eating it first. Protein is metabolically expensive to digest, helps manage hunger, reduces cravings, and is crucial for building muscle.A comprehensive approach combining resistance training, high-intensity interval training (HIIT), and consistent movement is essential to optimize body fat loss and overall fitness. Full-body workouts outperform split routines for body composition, while HIIT is particularly effective at reducing visceral fat. A foundational practice is tracking daily steps, aiming for at least 8,000 steps, gradually progressing to higher intensity by adding resistance, like a rucking vest.
