#32 Becoming More Mindful of Stress Management with Teemu Arina
Imagine having everything you'd ever want in the world - access to food, shelter, wealth, and entertainment -yet you're still suffering from poor health, anxiety, depression, and stress
I think we're all familiar with the surging flashes of cortisol that tend to override rational thought and make us feel stressed out
One of the most common health problems people have in modern society stems from chronic stress and an inflammatory lifestyle not just in nutrition but in their mindset as well
People have felt out of alignment with their environment, their physiology, and their body-mind connection, which is degrading the quality of their life
How do you pull yourself out of that vicious cycle of being triggered into a perpetual 'fight of flight' state? And how do you prevent from falling into that kind of darkness again?
That's the topic of today's Body Mind Empowerment Podcast. I'm Siim Land and our guest is Teemu Arina. He's an entrepreneur, a distinguished speaker from Finland and one of the authors of the Biohacker's Handbook.
We're going to talk about
Why are people so damn stressed out?
Difference between biohacking for high performance and wellness
What apps does Teemu use to optimize his environment and health
How the news is keeping your mind caught up with negativity
How your thoughts can literally make you addicted to stress
Should you take cold showers and exercise for stress management
How to instantly ground yourself and reclaim your awareness during the day
And much more...

#31 Myths of Intermittent Fasting with Philip Ghezelbash
"It's gonna help you to burn fat and when you do eat it'll help you to build muscle - the Holy Grail of body composition"
"Mindless eating...people eating just because they're bored...because they don't know what else to do"

How much protein can your body absorb in one sitting before you pee out the rest
Can you get as big as Kai Greene with intermittent fasting

The crazy situation where fat and exogenous ketones may raise insulin and kick you out of a fasted state
Why you may potentially lose muscle mass while fasting and how to prevent it

#27 Ketones Raise Insulin ?!? - Optimising Nutrition with Marty Kendall
We've all heard that carbs and sugar raise blood glucose and insulin. But the same applies to fat and ketones...what?!?
The thing is that any source of energy in excess is a signal for the body to utilize it efficiently.
High amounts of any fuel, whether that be glucose, fatty acids, or ketones in the bloodstream increases your body's energy usage and consequently may promote storage hormones such as insulin.
Now, wait a moment! I thought being in ketosis immediately made you burn fat. Is this a scam?!?
The thing is that there's a difference between ENDOGENOUS KETOSIS - burning ketones from your own adipose tissue - VS EXOGENOUS KETOSIS - burning ketones that come from dietary sources.
Keto has become very popular due to its sheer effectiveness but there are many misconceptions that need to be clarified.
Higher amounts of ketones isn't necessarily indicative of good metabolic health and it won't equal fat loss either
The key to longevity is to become keto-adapted and teach your body to produce its own endogenous ketones through caloric restriction, low carb diet, fasting, exercise, and other similar biohacks
That and much more in today's Body Mind Empowerment Podcast. I'm Siim Land and our guest is Marty Kendall from Brisbane Australia.Marty runs a popular blog Optimising Nutrition and it's an amazing resource for knowing how certain foods affect your insulin and how to optimize your micronutrient intake
We're going to talk about:
What's the difference between the glycemic index and insulin index
How much insulin does protein raise
The unheard of situation of fatty acids and ketones raising insulin
How exogenous ketones may actually shut off fat burning
Why more ketones isn't better for health nor weight loss
What's the difference between endogenous and exogenous ketosis
How to optimize your nutrient density instead of energy density
Which micronutrients you need to get from your food
And Much More...

You've probably experienced these moments of short-term memory loss and brain fog.It's as if someone hijacked your intelligence and replaced it with the mind of a fruit fly - just a blank stare

#25 How to Adapt to Stress and Become Antifragile With Cold Thermogenesis, Ketosis and Fasting
There are 3 kind of things in the world
Fragile things break under pressure and stress
Resilient things resist the shock and stay the same
Antifragile things adapt to the stressor and get better
Our human body is incredibly adaptable to all kinds of stimuli both physical and mental. This ability is inherent to the success of our species.
Stress adaptation is a key characteristic to evolution and life - you need to be antifragile in order to adapt the changing environments.
Unfortunately, our modern world is shielding us from these stressors and preventing our physiology from expressing its antifragility. Thus we become more fragile and more prone to breaking.
That's the topic of today's Body Mind Empowerment Podcast with your host Siim Land. Our guest is Cristi Vlad from Romania who's an author and a self-educated programmer about nutrition, deep learning, ketosis, intermittent fasting and much more.
We're going to talk about
How Cristi self-taught himself human physiology, genomics, and coding
What is antifragility and how does it relate to stress adaptation
How does one adapt to cold and other stressors
Is taking ice baths as dangerous for you as taking cyanide
How I'm currently doing the one meal a day diet while working out
What experiments has Cristi had with MCT oil and ketosis
How to raise awareness about your weight loss goals
And much more...
