Good gut good health (feat. Wade Lightheart) #364
Wade is a 3-time former Canadian All-Natural Bodybuilding champion, and then he went on to found a company called BiOptimizers that specialises in digestive health. Oh he's also an advisor to the American Anti-Cancer Institute. The company's called BiOptimzers and so let's do some bioptimzing. He’s been in the health industry for over 25 years, coached thousands of clients, and is sought out by athletes and high-performance oriented individuals worldwide for his advice on how to optimize their health. For more, head to https://masszymes.com/zestology and use the code ZESTOLOGY10 for 10% off. THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY: Masszymes by BiOptimizers - It’s a best-in-class supplement loaded with full spectrum enzymes for digesting proteins, starches, sugars, fibers, and fats. Your natural ability to digest food declines with age. This is because your body produces fewer enzymes — which are the proteins responsible for digesting food. Fewer enzymes means more difficulty digesting food. Even organic foods won’t provide enough enzymes to properly digest them. This is especially true if you cook your food because cooking kills enzymes. This is why you may have digestion problems even after a healthy meal. Your body just can’t produce enough enzymes to get the job done! This is where supplementing with a high quality enzyme supplement can be a huge help. I personally recommend Masszymes by BiOptimizers. Taking Masszymes daily helps top off your enzyme levels and replace the enzymes your body is no longer producing. Which means you’ll be able to eat all sorts of delicious foods and digest them quickly and effortlessly. After you start taking Masszymes, you may notice that you no longer feel bloated after meals and that your belly feels flatter. And if you have a leaky gut, Masszymes could reduce gut irritation and help you absorb more nutrients. Verified buyer Mike C. gave Masszymes a 5-star rating, saying, “It has definitely helped me address digestion and health issues.” Listen, life is too short to suffer from digestion problems. Try Masszymes risk-free and see what improvements you notice. For an exclusive offer for my listeners just go to www.masszymes.com/zestology and use the code ZESTOLOGY10 for a 10% discount. Oh, and one more thing… For a limited time BiOptimizers is also giving away free bottles of their best-selling products P3OM and HCL with select purchases only while supplies last so hurry and order now if you want the free gifts!! So go to www.masszymes.com/zestology now to get your exclusive 10% discount, plus the chance to get more than $50 worth of supplements for free.

2022. Your Year. (Feat. Dr. Stephen Simpson) #362
It's become a tradition that Dr. Steve and I record the first podcast of the new year together. This year. Embrace the unexpected. It's what we've resolved to do. Listen on for our thoughts for how we are approaching our resolutions this year, and the latest research in the best ways to actually get things done.

Review Of The Year 2021 #361
There's an ”end of year” feel to the Zestology podcast today which I hope you'll enjoy. It features some of my favourite people, tech and hacks from 2021. The things that have really made a difference in my wellness/fitness regimen in a most challenging year. THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY: P3-OM: P3-OM is a patented probiotic that might be the most effective probiotic ever developed. P3-OM fights bacteria and strengthens immunity -- basically a germ-fighting superhero -- but it also helps digestion, speeds up metabolism, and increases energy throughout the day. That’s way more than I thought probiotics could do. Winter, aka sick season, is upon us and we all know this is the time of year to take extra care to protect ourselves from germs and bacteria. You can do everything right, wash your hands, keep your hands away from your face, carry around hand sanitizer...but you still get sick. That's why you need to protect your body from the inside, not just the out and you can do that by building up your immune system with some high quality and high strength probiotics. That’s why I’m really excited about P3-OM. And just when I thought P3-OM couldn’t get any more powerful, I watched a video (which you can see at www.p3om.com/zestology) of the probiotic literally breaking down a piece of steak. After I saw that, I was ALL in! You’ll be amazed too. Check it out. Here’s some more awesome news: you can get 10% off P3-OM right now by going to www.p3om.com/zestology, and typing in coupon code ZESTOLOGY10. And if you order it, and it’s not everything you hoped for, their support team will give you all your money back, no questions asked.

Enjoy Life. Offline. (Feat. Kasia Bocheńska) #360
In this podcast, you'll hear about our new family Special Sundays. It's quite an eye-opener. We've been doing something with tech on Sundays, and it's made a real difference to our lives. Smartphones help us in many ways but too often they become a time-consuming burden we carry with us all the time. I've been following Mudita for quite some time after their incredibly successful kickstarter campaign. They're all about minimalist phones that keep you in the present, focused on the here and now. Their new tech is potentially a biohacker-must-have, but can they deliver? Let's find out... THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY: INSIDE TRACKER: If you want to optimize and biohack and be at your best, it’s worth doing some detailed health testing. I’ve been using a company that can do it all at home. InsideTracker is an ultra-personalized performance system that analyzes data from your blood, DNA, lifestyle and fitness tracker to help you optimize your body and reach your health & wellness goals. So what about my results? One of my blood markers came back well outside range, and now they are helping me to make some detailed changes. That’s great. It’s just something I wouldn’t have known unless I’d taken the test. You can even upload your DNA results to the portal too for extra insights. Visit https://info.insidetracker.com/zestology for a big discount - 25% off, and a cheesy picture of me.
