High Performance Health

Angela presents a bitesize featuring Dr. Stephen Gundry, a renowned cardiologist and author, focussing upon mitochondrial uncoupling, a fascinating process that can turbocharge metabolism and aid in weight loss. Dr. Gundry explains how mitochondria, the powerhouses of our cells, generate energy through the coupling of oxygen and protons. KEY TAKEAWAYS Mitochondrial uncoupling is a process that turns cells into high-performance machines, similar to a Ferrari. Uncoupling allows mitochondria to release excess pressure and protect themselves from damage caused by the energy production process. Uncoupling leads to the generation of heat, which helps in maintaining body temperature. Uncoupling also reduces the workload of each mitochondrion, allowing them to divide and create more mitochondria within a cell. Older people who are thriving and individuals in blue zones have highly uncoupled mitochondria, which contributes to their longevity and overall health. BEST MOMENTS "Believe it or not, the best way to keep your mitochondrial healthy is to uncouple them." "We reduce the work of each mitochondria, but because mitochondria have their own DNA, they can divide and make more mitochondria within a cell without the cell dividing." "And then you start looking at some of the blue zones, and it turns out that the food that these blue zones eat our foods that hopefully we'll talk about are really good at uncoupling mitochondria." "There's a theory of aging called the cost of living hypothesis. And it's quite a nice theory. And that says the higher your metabolic rate, the shorter your lifespan."

Angela talks to author and psychedelics expert Matt Zemon, about psychedelics and their potential for personal growth and healing. Matt shares his personal journey with psychedelics, including his first experience and the profound insights he gained. They discuss the importance of intention, set, and setting when using psychedelics, as well as the different types of psychedelics and their effects. Matt emphasises the role of integration in harnessing the transformative power of these substances and how they can help individuals connect with their true selves and experience a sense of interconnectedness   KEY TAKEAWAYS Psychedelics can be a catalyst for personal growth and self-discovery, but they are not a cure-all and should be approached with caution. The three key factors for reducing risk when using psychedelics are source (knowing where the medicine comes from), set (having the right mindset and intention), and setting (creating a safe and supportive physical environment). Different psychedelics have different effects and purposes. For example, MDMA can be used for treating PTSD, psilocybin can facilitate deep introspection, and DMT can provide profound spiritual experiences. Integration work is crucial after a psychedelic experience to incorporate the insights and lessons into everyday life. Psychedelics can also be beneficial for end-of-life care, helping individuals and their families navigate the process with more peace and acceptance. BEST MOMENTS "The first thing they're going to do is quiet down your default mode network. So that's that inner narrator that is constantly telling you you're not enough, you need to do more, you're not worthy." "I think that combination of three medicines over a few days is really a powerful arc." "It's so interesting what you're saying. So interesting. I remember being with my father when he passed away and just realizing in those final moments, the just how much human touch could make a difference."

www.angelafosterperformance.com/hormones Angela discusses the topic of oestrogen and its impact on women's health during perimenopause, focussing on the various symptoms that can arise when oestrogen levels drop, such as hot flashes, brain fog, low mood, irritability, and anxiety. Angela provides valuable nutritional strategies to support healthy oestrogen levels, including incorporating phytoestrogen-rich foods like nuts, flax seeds, soy, and red clover. Omega-3 fatty acids from sources like oily fish and grass-fed meat are recommended to boost serotonin levels and alleviate mood-related symptoms. Cruciferous vegetables, probiotics, and foods rich in polyphenols are also highlighted for their ability to support gut health and oestrogen metabolism. KEY TAKEAWAYS Phytoestrogens, found in foods like nuts, flax seeds, soy, red clover, pomegranate, and kudzu, can help alleviate menopausal symptoms by improving oestrogen levels. Omega-3 fatty acids, found in oily fish like salmon, mackerel, anchovies, sardines, and herrings, can help boost serotonin levels and improve mood during perimenopause. Cruciferous vegetables, such as broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, bok choy, brussels sprouts, kale, mustard, kohlrabi, and turnip, contain DIM, which can shift oestrogen metabolism to favour healthy oestrogen metabolites. Consuming probiotic-rich foods like live yogurt, kefir, sauerkraut, kimchi, kombucha, and limited amounts of sourdough bread can support a healthy microbiome and oestrogen levels. Calcium D Glucarate, found in fruits and vegetables like Brussels sprouts, broccoli, cabbage, and apples, can inhibit enzymes that contribute to breast and colon cancer and reduce oestrogen absorption from the digestive tract. BEST MOMENTS "Perimenopause can be a bit of a curve ball for many women." (Host) "Phytoestrogens have healthy oestrogen-like activity that can help alleviate menopausal symptoms." (Host) "Omega-3 fatty acids can help improve low mood and serotonin levels." (Host) "Cruciferous vegetables contain DIM, which can shift oestrogen metabolism to favour friendly oestrogen metabolites." (Host) "Good quality fats are associated with a lower risk of heart disease and breast cancer."

Angela talks to special guest, John R. Miles, author of the book "Passion Struck." John shares his personal journey of resilience and overcoming challenges, including a traumatic brain injury. He discusses the importance of inner grit and perseverance in pursuing one's passions, and emphasises the need to break free from a routine that lacks fulfilment and offers practical advice on how to align intentions with actions. He also explores the concept of self-mastery and the power of reinvention, delving into the mindset and behaviours of high performers, the importance of reading and continuous learning, and the role of intentionality in achieving success KEY TAKEAWAYS The book "Passion Struck" explores the mindset and behaviours necessary for creating a fulfilling and passionate life. The key to breaking free from a life that feels unfulfilling is to align your intentions with your actions and make intentional changes in one area of your life at a time. Developing self-mastery and overcoming self-doubt are crucial components of living a passion-driven life. Time is malleable, and by optimising your time and being intentional with your actions, you can accomplish more in less time. Reinvention and continuous learning are essential for personal growth and success in a rapidly changing world. BEST MOMENTS "It's really coming down to this feeling of, do you want to keep perpetuating a life where you're making other people's dreams come true, but you're not making your own dreams come true?" "To break free from that, it's not something that's just done overnight. I think the first thing that you've got to do is create awareness that you have these behaviours in the first place." "The upper limit problem is something that a lot of us face, we tend to think that we can only grow so far." "The more intentional actions that you start taking in these micro choices that make up your day, the easier that path is going to become."

Angela and guest Dr Sarah Hill discuss the fascinating research on the stress response and cortisol in relation to hormonal birth control, highlighting the profound influence of sex hormones on the body and how women on hormonal birth control have a blunted cortisol response to stress. KEY TAKEAWAYS Women on hormonal birth control have a blunted cortisol response to stress. Cortisol is beneficial in the short term for coping with stress and memory formation. Chronic exposure to cortisol can be detrimental to the body, leading to a shutdown of the stress response. Women on the birth control pill exhibit a blunted cortisol response similar to individuals with PTSD or trauma. The first three months of birth control pill use may cause the HPA axis to go into overdrive, leading to a shutdown of the stress response. BEST MOMENTS "Cortisol helps our body and our brain cope with whatever it is that we're experiencing that's stressful." "Women who are on the birth control pill exhibit this blunted cortisol response to stress because they essentially have the HPA axis, which is the brain adrenal axis, which is the thing that drives cortisol release and regulates cortisol release." "I think the body goes into cortisol overdrive when you go on the pill, and I think it probably has to do with the progestins binding to these cortisol receptors."

Angela is joined by Kristen Holmes, to discuss the features and benefits of the WHOOP physiological monitoring device. They delve into the concept of recovery and how WHOOP helps individuals understand their body's response to external stress. They also explore metrics such as heart rate variability, strain, and sleep consistency, highlighting their importance in achieving optimal health and performance, looking at the impact of circadian rhythms, light exposure, and sleep-wake times on overall well-being. KEY TAKEAWAYS WHOOP is a 24/7 physiological monitoring device that tracks heart rate, heart rate variability, strain, and sleep. Recovery is a key metric that measures how well your body is adapting to external stressors. Sleep regularity, or consistent sleep-wake times, is crucial for optimal health and functioning. Heart rate variability is a measure of your body's ability to adapt to stress and is associated with improved cardiovascular and metabolic function. Strain is a measure of cardiovascular load and can be influenced by factors such as exercise intensity, sleep, and stress levels. BEST MOMENTS " We want to try to get ourselves into a regular sleep-wake cycle, we want to focus on waking up at a similar time every single day, because what that does is then where our exposure to light is happening at a similar time” "When we started this whole kind of campaign around strain, it was really to understand how hard your heart is working." "I think it's just getting out of this, like, step mindset and thinking about, 'Alright, how hard is my heart working? And how active am I versus sedentary?'" "It’s velocity-based training is kind of what we're understanding how quickly you're moving the weights. And there's an algorithm that helps us understand what that load on your musculoskeletal is."

Angela discusses the importance of controlling the process in order to achieve goals. While we may not have control over the outcome, we can control our actions and focus on the present moment. Angela looks at the need to celebrate wins along the way and avoid comparing ourselves to others, as comparison can be demotivating. She also explores the emotional cycle of change and the stages one goes through when trying to create behaviour change KEY TAKEAWAYS While we may not have control over the outcome, we can control the process by visualising ourselves doing the work and taking steps towards our goals. Instead of focusing on the gap between where we are and where we want to be, it's important to celebrate the progress we make each day. This helps to stay motivated and avoid comparing ourselves to others. The emotional cycle of change consists of stages such as uninformed optimism, informed pessimism, the valley of despair, informed optimism, and success. Pushing through the valley of despair is crucial for achieving goals. Prioritise the actions that will have the most impact on moving closer to your goals. Make small, consistent changes that build self-confidence and self-esteem BEST MOMENTS "Comparison is really the thief of joy." "If you go through that valley of despair and then you kind of step back, you don't continue with what you're doing, you're not going to achieve your goals." "When we follow through on things, that helps to build our self-confidence and our self-esteem." "If you just focus on getting 1% better every day, within 12 months you will be 37 times better."

Angela is joined by functional medicine practitioner, Dr. Jacey Folkers, who specialises in optimising health through lifestyle changes, peptides, hormone replacement therapy, and supplements. They discuss the importance of prioritising gut health and addressing gut issues, such as leaky gut and malabsorption, which can lead to autoimmune conditions, chronic fatigue, and weight loss resistance. They also delve into the role of insulin resistance in hormone imbalances, particularly in women with conditions like PCOS, and how peptides like semi-glutide can positively influence insulin resistance and improve hormonal balance. KEY TAKEAWAYS Prioritising gut health is crucial for overall health and well-being, especially for individuals who exercise frequently. Insulin resistance can lead to hormone imbalances in women, and addressing insulin resistance can have positive effects on hormonal health. Artificial sweeteners, especially those found in processed foods and drinks, can have negative effects on the body and should be avoided or minimised. Supplementing with key nutrients like magnesium, B vitamins, and antioxidants can support energy production, combat oxidative stress, and promote overall health. Getting adequate sleep is important for optimal health, and prioritising sleep hygiene and creating a consistent sleep schedule can have a significant impact on well-being. BEST MOMENTS “There's no such thing as a magic supplement or magic pill, you got, you still have to do all of the work." "I feel everyone should be taking CoQ10 like after the age of like 35 because it just kind of is going to decline." "I think I just need a lot more relaxation and rest than I because I just go I, I like to go, go, go, go, go. But, that's like humans today."

Angela delves into the power of visualisation, discussing goal visualisation and process visualisation. She emphasises the importance of embodying the person who achieves the goals and taking inspired action, and touches on the significance of belief in oneself and the universe's power to help manifest goals KEY TAKEAWAYS Visualisation is a powerful tool for achieving goals, and there are two types: goal visualisation and process visualisation. Goal visualisation involves visualising the outcome and feeling of achieving a goal. Process visualisation focuses on visualising the steps and actions taken to reach the goal. Taking inspired action, developing self-discipline, and releasing attachment to outcomes are important for achieving goals and co-creating with the universe. BEST MOMENTS "You're effectively co-creating with the universe, but you're releasing attachment. That this is going, everything is unfolding for you." "Every action you take is a vote for the type of person you wish to become." "How does your ideal self show up and conduct activities? What kind of decisions does he or she make? What habits and routines do you have to support yourself in that process?"

Angela is joined by Paul from Mindset Change UK, to discuss the key factors that prevent people from living their best lives and creating the changes they desire. Paul explains that conditioning from the past often holds people back, leading to self-sabotage and an upper limit problem. They delve into the importance of devaluing negative thoughts and programs, as well as the role of coaching in overcoming anxiety and achieving personal growth. They also explore the concept of self-love and the power of mindfulness in shifting mindset. KEY TAKEAWAYS Conditioning from the past often prevents people from living their best lives. Conditioning can occur at any age, not just during childhood. Anxiety is often caused by neglecting emotional and physical needs. Seeking help and coaching is important for personal growth and overcoming limitations. Focussing too much on the mind rather than the mind-body-heart connection can also lead to anxiety. Devaluing negative thoughts and programs is important in order to break free from them and create new, positive beliefs. BEST MOMENTS "We can have what's known as an upper limit problem. So some people get to a certain level when it comes to success and then they do everything they can to sabotage the hell out of it." "There is a lot of science talking about what we pick up conditioning-wise from our parents and adult caregivers as we were growing up." "The more we begin to devalue it and make it boring... the more quickly we change." "If you're not seeking help, you're falling into the trap of staying miserable. You're falling into the trap of struggling, which is another way of you not reaching your goals."
