[10:49] Saying Yes to Healthier Options Will Help You Replace Unhealthy Habits ·    Habits and routines drive us, but if they're unhealthy, they don't serve us well in the long term. ·    Replacing unhealthy habits with healthy ones is key to success. ·    Learning to say yes to healthy alternatives is important, not just saying no to unhealthy ones. ·    Jumping over to a healthier lifestyle can lead to a future without regret. ·    Healthy alternatives like going to the gym, swimming, and sitting in an infrared sauna can make a big difference. ·    Loving healthy habits will serve better than junk food or half-hearted attempts at healthy living. [14:28] What are some of the things that contribute to weight loss? ·    If people struggle to lose weight despite having a good diet and exercise routine, the reason may be hormonal or genetics-related. ·    Ensuring that the thyroid is appropriately assessed and optimized is crucial. ·    Increasing thyroid function can naturally and safely lead to weight loss and improve low thyroid symptoms, such as depression, constipation, dry skin, and hair loss. ·    Many people's thyroid is not adequately managed because doctors only check for TSH levels, which can be in the "normal" range but not optimal for the individual. ·    Comparing thyroid levels to shoe sizes, finding the optimal level for each individual is important, rather than just accepting a "normal" range that may not work for everyone. [32:45] How do meal timing and exercise affect your weight loss? ·    The timing of when you consume calories affects hormonal effects and energy-burning modes. ·    Eating a calorie-dense meal late at night when your body is in hibernation mode can lead to more energy storage and difficulties losing weight. ·    Shifting the timing of meals and exercise can greatly impact weight loss, such as eating earlier in the day and taking a walk afterwards or doing cardio during daylight hours when the body is primed to burn energy. ·    When we wake up in the morning, our body is in fat-burning mode after digesting dinner from the night before. ·    Skipping breakfast and doing cardio in the morning before eating can enhance fat-burning mode and create a healthier intermittent fasting pattern. [37:21] Insulin Sensitivity and Its Role in Weight Loss ·    Insulin is a double-edged sword, helpful for clearing blood sugar out of circulation but harmful in excess, which is why maintaining insulin sensitivity is crucial. ·    Insulin moves blood sugar out of circulation and into cells but also signals to create fat. ·    High insulin levels lead to a constant signal to store fat, making weight loss impossible. ·    Boosting insulin sensitivity through methods like intermittent fasting can help lower insulin levels and make weight loss more possible.

[07:37] Shifting Perspectives for Breakthroughs Exploring the two types of people: Those who see difficulties in every opportunity and those who see opportunities in difficulties. Kaylor's experience with personal growth and mindset shifts and realizing the freedom and control we have over our circumstances. Viewing mental health symptoms as gifts from the human body. Understanding the necessity of challenges for personal growth and reaching our highest potential. Analogies and examples illustrate the transformative power of pressure and stress. Transitioning from destructive habits to an addiction for healing and personal growth. And start recognizing the positive impact of embracing the journey towards mental well-being. [17:17] The Power of Obsession: Embracing Fear and Finding Meaning Building up enough courage to feel the fear and take action Desensitizing fear through continuous action and start overcoming deep-seated beliefs and triggering worldviews. Obsession is a Key to Success because thriving individuals and identifying commonalities serve as the importance of being obsessed with a mission.

You need to learn to differentiate between drive and discipline in achieving goals and find a strong drive rooted in a compelling mission.

These conditioned beliefs, formed during childhood and influenced by external factors, shape our self-concept and identity. However, our psychology is wired to validate these beliefs in the external world, often leading to self-sabotage and feelings of inadequacy.  To build self-worth, it is essential to awaken to these unconscious patterns and interrupt the self-destructive cycle. By consciously observing ourselves and acting despite feelings of unworthiness, we can gradually accumulate evidence that disproves our limiting beliefs.  We can gradually cultivate a strong sense of self-worth and confidence through repetition and building a stack of undeniable achievements.  AND MUCH MORE!

Michael wanted to learn about chronic diseases and how they started in childhood.  At the end of the day, he found a lot of very interesting information about sugar and how to modify it. Michael wanted to get that information out there to the public. If someone is diabetic, that didn’t happen over the past year. Instead, they have been eating a poor diet for the last ten to fifteen years.  Get Sugarproof: The Hidden Dangers of Sugar That Are Putting Your Child's Health at Risk and What You Can Do: https://www.amazon.com/Sugarproof-Hidden-Dangers-Putting-Childs/dp/0525541195/benazadi-20 [04:40] Options For Babies As They Get Off of Breast Milk  The food companies are doing a great job at basically hijacking the innate preferences that babies have.  Babies are actually born with a built-in preference for sweetness. It’s supposed to help them seek out good-tasting foods.  Food companies know that babies and kids prefer sweetness. So that's why 80% of kids’ foods have some type of added sugars.  Breast milk does have carbohydrates. Lactose is built from glucose and galactose. However, there's no fructose in natural mother's milk.  It's the introduction of fructose that starts to cause problems as well as added sugar.  [07:50] When Moms Should Start To Wean The Baby Off of Breast Milk  The recommendation is six months. However, there are studies that demonstrate the longer the duration of breastfeeding, the more likely you are to prevent obesity.  Plus, the longer you breastfeed, you will promote brain development. If a mom breastfeeds for more than twelve months, those babies are highly protected from obesity, even if they consume high amounts of sugary beverages as a toddler. [10:55] A Calorie Isn’t Always A Calorie: 90% of Fructose Is Cleared By The Liver Sucrose, which is ordinary table sugar, is what we call a disaccharide. It's a glucose molecule connected to a fructose molecule; both are identical chemically. Glucose is used everywhere in the body for energy. The liver filters out almost 90% of fructose. The liver's job is to filter things out that it doesn't want in the blood. The liver will take fructose and convert it to fat. The most common form of liver disease is nonalcoholic, and that nonalcoholic contributor is fructose. [18:10] Recommendations For Adults and Children Who Have Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease Sugar elimination can rapidly deplete the liver of its fat quite quickly. It only takes seven to eight days.  That’s why Michael has a seven-day no added sugar challenge. Learn more about the challenge by getting Michael’s book here: https://www.amazon.com/Sugarproof-Hidden-Dangers-Putting-Childs/dp/0525541195/benazadi-20 You should do the challenge right after the holidays. It’s a great way to get fat out of the liver. Kids need to reset their bodies and taste preferences.  Weight loss is also important for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.  We get so amped up on sugar, we begin to crave it more and more. Cut it out! [21:00] There Are Over 200 Names For Caloric Sugars  The current count is about 260 or 270.  Food companies are developing healthy-sounding names for sugar. Here are some examples: Organic brown rice syrup  Evaporated cane juice Agave nectar  Fruit juice concentrates  Some of the fruit sugars can have even more fructose and high fructose corn syrup. Gatorade is a fake healthy drink.  [23:40] What’s Happening To Children When They Consume Less Sugar Kids are more intelligent if they eat less sugar. With less sugar, kids can expect to have these benefits: Perform better on academic tests Better memory Better sleep More focus [32:15] How Much Fructose Is Really In Coca-Cola? Michael Did The Research  Michael wanted to know what was in Coca-Cola.  Products say high fructose corn syrup; we don't actually know what that is. The food industry says it's marginally more fructose than glucose in their products.   Michael went to the supermarket and got all kinds of drinks. He sent them off to the lab. About 65% of the sugars are fructose.  Michael presented this information six years ago. The food industry told him that his research was invalid. However, they couldn’t prove how.  Remember, more fructose causes a lot of problems in the body.  [35:25] True or False: It’s Impossible To Be Addicted To Sugar  Here are some of the criteria for addiction: Withdrawal  Side effects Difficult to give up If you look at the criteria for addiction, they stand true for sugar.  It makes no sense that qualified professional dietitians would say that sugar is not addictive.  About 40% of the Academy of Dietetics and Nutrition funding comes from big food companies. [45:15] What’s Next For Michael In 2022 Michael is wondering why certain populations have the highest rates of obesity, diabetes, and fatty liver. He wants to come up with Latino-specific strategies, protocols, and interventions. Plus, Michael is going to continue to develop more recipes for his fans.  AND MUCH MORE!

[05:33] The Amazing Health Benefits of Eating Organ Meat ·       Eating organ meats provides nutrient density, including vitamins and minerals essential for the body. ·       Organ meats contain blood, fat, and other elements that were brand new to our species and contributed to the increase in brain size and development of language. ·       Our species evolved when we started incorporating organ meats into our diet, and this cannot be denied. ·       Eating organ meats is important for overall health and well-being; without them, our bodies may not have developed to their current state.  [09:42] The Problem With Keto & Carnivore: Too Much Muscle Meat! During the war, there was a protein shortage, and the government invested in a campaign to promote alternative protein sources, including organ meats. To make organ meats more appealing, they were renamed "variety meats." When women entered the workforce, there was more household income, and people started to prefer more expensive cuts of meat, contributing to the decline in demand for organ meats. People prefer muscle meat over organ meat because of the loss of familiarity and taste. Thus, local markets no longer carry organ meat, making it harder to source. The most nutrient-dense parts of the animal, such as organ meats, are considered not for human consumption and are used in other industries, which leads to a need for supplements and other sources of nutrients. [22:16] Creative Ways to Use Eat Pluck to Enhance The Nutritional Profile of Your Food! The five organ meats (liver, heart, kidney, spleen, pancreas) are important because, in the past, when tribes slaughtered animals, they would only have limited amounts of these organs, which were often given to those who were pregnant, sick, or children. Eating nose to tail is important to get the full range of nutrients from the whole animal. Eating nutrition is better than swallowing because it bypasses the digestive process and immediately responds to the body's needs. The body immediately responds to the nutrient-dense properties of organ meats, much like the way it responds to salt. Kids enjoy eating organ meats and may crave them because their bodies recognize the nutrients they provide. [39:52] Can Organ Meat Put a Dent in Disease?  ·   Eating organ meats is an ancestral concept supporting different body parts. ·   Modern diseases like dementia, Alzheimer's, thyroid issues, and lung problems may be related to the lack of consumption of organ meats. ·   Eating organ meats may positively impact overall energy and nutrition. ·       Feeling better in your body may lead to treating others better and creating a better world.

[1:33] The Cell Danger Response – Why The Mitochondria Get BROKEN  -       If we look at how we make energy, we're moving electrons, which we call the electron transport chain. This is the job of the mitochondria. -       In the process, there could be efficient and non-efficient. As we get older, it becomes a less efficient system. -       Several factors will influence the fluidity of making energy. -       There's a threshold of inflammation that completely shuts down the mitochondria when it is exposed to a toxic environment. -       The acid in the body creates resistance, and resistance in the body creates acid. This also translates into inflammation and stress, negatively impacting energy production. -       We need to start looking at things increasing the inflammation in our body and start to lower those. [11:00] Are You Stressed? Take Melatonin and Protect Your Mitochondria  -       Melatonin is the antioxidant that sits and prevents this Cell Danger Response to the shutdown of the mitochondria. -       You can take melatonin at night, and it's great for sleep. -       When faced with overwhelming stress, they must do more than just one thing. They can't expect just to do the ketogenic diet, and everything turns around. -       There are only two antioxidants that can enter the mitochondrial membrane: melatonin and glutathione. -       There shouldn't be any fear regarding melatonin because there's no negative feedback loop. You don't shut down your own production; it has no toxicity. [22:12]  Learn About The Locus Coeruleus aka The Blue Spot in Your Brain  -       The blue spot, known as the locus coeruleus, is in the brain's center. -       A healthy individual must be able to transfer short-term memory to long-term memory to have healthy mental, emotional, spiritual, and overall well-being. -       You want your stress level to be low during sleeping. -       When our stress hormones rise, our short-term memory becomes trapped in a vicious loop. -       Drug companies are interested in finding something that can impact locus coeruleus. -       The ability to consolidate our memories revolves around REM sleep and having low-stress hormones leading up to sleep. -       Avoiding alcohol, eating late at night, light pollution, EMF exposure, and turning wifi router off will be helpful to have good REM sleep. [30:56] The Amazing Benefits of Cold Therapy, & Why You Can Do Too Much of it -       If you are having difficulty tolerating the cold water, keep your hand out of the water. -       Most people can tolerate the suggested three minutes. It can be quite uncomfortable for some people than others. There will not likely be any damage or danger to your cells or tissues. -       In the biohacking world, cold therapy is great for having an adaptive response that the body becomes stronger and more resilient in case we have that stressor comes in the future. -       If you do cold exposure and you've wiped out the rest of your day, it's a sign you did too much, so you want to find that sweet spot where you feel better and your body's adapting because we know stress is only bad when you don't adapt to it. [34:09] Dr John’s Epic Bio-Hacking Morning Routine  -       When connected to Mother Earth, we suck ions into our body for mitochondria, energy production, and overall health and balance. -       In the morning, Dr John does sungazing to activate his circadian rhythm. -       Breathwork and some exercises are beautiful ways to start a day. -       Dr John also takes supplements in the morning. -       How you start that morning determines how you will function for the rest of the day.

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Temple Stewart. She is a Registered Dietitian, Certified Personal Trainer, and Health Behavior Change Specialist. Temple played D1 soccer at the University of Tennessee Martin, which is where she received a degree in Dietetics. She completed an internship at the VA Medical Center in Bay Pines, FL. Temple currently works and lives in St. Petersburg, FL with her husband and their two poodles, Axel and Rowdie. Throughout college Temple developed a very unhealthy relationship with food and began using food rules or diets as punishment or for comfort. This behavior propelled Temple into learning all she could about food and how impacts our bodies, ultimately making her choose to become a Registered Dietitian. Throughout the process, Temple began to learn how to eat for health and how to develop a healthy relationship with food. Along the road, she was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis and PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome), furthermore increasing her interest in treating the body with nutrition. In this episode, Temple talks about her journey to health and reversing the symptoms of both PCOS and Hashimotos. As a trained dietitian, Temple reveals why her education around food wasn’t exactly the best information. Plus, Temple dives into her favorite health hacks, including the carnivore diet, intermittent fasting, carb cycling, and lab work. Tune in as we chat about how much protein you should be eating, how keto will help with fertility, and tips for asking your doctor about prescribing a CGM. This episode originally aired in January 2022.

Plus, she had no menstrual cycles. When she went to the doctor, they put her on birth control. After moving to Florida to become a dietitian, Temple’s health worsened. Temple was doing exactly what they taught her in dietitian school: eat less, move more, more vegetables, and less fat. Eventually, Temple was diagnosed with both PCOS and Hashimotos. [06:10] How Temple Realized Her Dietitian Training Was Garbage Temple read The Obesity Code: https://www.amazon.com/The-Obesity-Code-Dr-Jason-Fung-audiobook/dp/B01MRKEO0U/benazadi-20 After reading The Obesity Code, she went down a rabbit hole with tons of other resources. She started helping patients in the hospital lower their carbs. Temple did a research study; every single person got off their medications and lost weight after lowering their carbs. [08:30] It Took Three Months For Temple To Reverse Her Hashimoto’s Symptoms Hashimoto’s thyroiditis is essentially an autoimmune disease. A lot of times, Hashimoto’s and PCOS go hand-in-hand. Keto can be so helpful because it takes away a lot of the triggers of the immune system. Through nutrition, Temple was able to get rid of all her symptoms. [16:00] If You’re Starting To Change Your Diet, Try Carnivore  Everyone can benefit from a carnivore lifestyle. A lot of people are suffering from something and don't realize it until they go carnivore. If you want to get into ketosis quickly, try carnivore for a couple of days. People who are hitting plateaus can definitely benefit from a carnivore diet. [16:55] Insulin Resistance Is Actually Weight Loss Resistance What's causing the weight to stay on your body could be due to insulin. There are people who have tried every diet in the book. For the most part, people end up lowering calories. However, nothing will work when insulin resistance is up. Weight loss is typically a symptom; it usually comes after you heal your body. [18:45] Strategies For Overcoming A Keto Weight Loss Stall  A lot of times, carb cycling can be effective. Complex carbs can help women depending on where they are in their cycle. Temple will also suggest switching up your intermittent fasting routine. The same thing goes for exercise – sometimes you are doing too much! Plus, don’t forget to look at your sleep and your stress. Lastly, you may need to get labs and see what’s going on with your hormones. [21:30] Why Temple Loves To Implement Intermittent Fasting   Intermittent fasting is great for weight loss, aging, and protecting the brain. Many people do well fasting for 16-hours and having an 8-hour eating window. A 72 hour fast done quarterly can reset your immune system. Temple will encourage her clients to do what works for them. Fasting during breakfast is very popular. However, many women do better when they fast during dinner time. With intermittent fasting, the sky is the limit. [25:15] How Much Protein Temple Will Recommend For Her Clients   Temple recommends .8 or .9 grams per lb of body weight for a woman. People who are snacking could stop if they meet their protein needs. Most women are undereating protein. The recommendations out there on protein are so low! [30:10] Why Protein Is So Satiating and Filling To The Human Body Protein is the building block for everything. It's really the only macronutrient that you cannot live without. Plus, protein is extremely satiating. It's really hard to eat an exorbitant amount of food when you’re eating protein. [32:35] Why The Scale Is Setting You Up For Failure Women can fluctuate eight pounds just in terms of hormonal water weight gain when they cycle through their period. People get so attached to the scale because society values thinness. Instead, you should judge based on how you feel. Think about how your bowel movements are, what your skin feels like, how your hair is growing. The scale should be way down the list of importance when it comes to health. [37:00] Tips On Speaking With Your Doctor About Your Health   First, Temple says you need to find the right doctor. Usually, a doctor can get you a CGM. Naturopaths and more holistic homeopathic physicians should be able to help you. Tell them you are interested in how food impacts your blood glucose levels. If a doctor shuts you down or isn't even willing to have the conversation with the insurance company, you might think about finding someone who is. [40:30] Should I Follow A Keto Diet If I’m Trying To Get Pregnant? PCOS is the most common cause of infertility. The most common cause of PCOS is absolutely insulin resistance. So, keto will improve your chances of getting pregnant. PCOS women are at a much higher risk for gestational diabetes. Going low carb will be safe if you’re doing it in a nourishing way. You have to focus heavily on fatty meats. When you get pregnant, you really have to focus and make sure you're getting the right nutrients. AND MUCH MORE!
