Debunking sensational headlines about intermittent fasting and heart disease risk. Analyzing flawed methodology, demographic biases, and conflicts of interest in research. Exploring benefits of time-restricted feeding and advocating for continued practice.

New research suggests that fructose and sugar are major drivers of obesity and metabolic disease, impacting energy levels, leptin signaling, and aging pathways. High carb and salt diets increase diabetes risk, while Berberine fasting accelerator may support intermittent fasting. Excessive fructose metabolism can disrupt metabolic pathways, increase body fat storage, and promote hyperphagia. Uric acid and liver enzyme elevation may serve as biomarkers for health complications.

Learn about the hidden health dangers of seed oils and their impact on migraines, chronic pain, and developmental delay in children. Discover how linoleic acid in seed oils affects fat tissue, leading to inflammatory adipocytes and worsening metabolic health. Explore the association between high omega-6 fat intake and conditions like depression, persistent pain, and poor mental health.

Debunking media claims of protein damaging arteries, the podcast delves into a study's flaws and implications. Discussing junk protein, canola oil, and the impact of plant vs. animal protein on heart disease. Exploring mTOR in immune cells, new mechanisms of heart disease, and the stimulation of mTOR by protein.

Discussion on how junk food, not red meat, is the main risk factor for heart disease. Highlighting the dangers of ultra processed foods on inflammation and microbiome. Recommending real, unprocessed foods to reduce cardiovascular risks.

Heart Surgeon Dr. Phil Ovadia discusses the drivers of early-onset heart disease including processed foods and high carbs. Reversing atherosclerosis is possible. Tests for heart health include CAC and CCTA. High LDL may not be dangerous in metabolically healthy individuals. Statin use for over 10 years increases the risk of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. Iron levels and the dangers of dichotomous thinking in dietary choices are also discussed. Bioidentical hormones for menopause and improving metabolic health are explored.

Discover the collusion between the sugar industry and Harvard scientists to blame fat and cholesterol instead of sugar for heart disease. Explore the impact on dietary guidelines and obesity, as well as the manipulation of the medical community. Find parallels between resistance to processed foods and sugar, and learn about the historical context and industry influence on sugar and processed foods.

Explore the concept that high fiber diets may worsen constipation and other colorectal disorders. Reducing fiber can alleviate constipation, bloating, and associated symptoms. Case studies reveal the benefits of eliminating or reducing fiber intake. Biases in nutrition habits and the influence of dietary strategies are discussed. Reducing fiber intake may improve symptoms of constipation and bloating.

A recent study reveals the connection between unhealthy eating patterns and accelerated biological aging in women. Poor quality diets enriched in processed foods are linked to faster aging. Sauna therapy mimics exercise's effects. Metformin and DHEA can slow aging. Positive thoughts on aging are associated with slower biological aging. Foods not found in nature are problematic for health.

This podcast explores the paradox of cholesterol, discussing how high cholesterol can be protective against mortality. It highlights the different correlations of cholesterol levels in middle-aged men and older individuals. The composition of cholesterol particles and their relationship to cardiovascular disease are also explored, emphasizing the importance of testing the APO B to A1 ratio. Additionally, the podcast challenges the oversimplification of the relationship between cholesterol and cancer, and encourages informed decision-making based on HDL to triglyceride ratios and remnant lipoproteins.
