High Performance Health

From her interview with Jim Steele about the value of persistence and achieving goals, Angela presents a bitesize biohack designed to push you to continue when you're on the path towards a greater aim, and how to harness the power of persistence in doing so. KEY TAKEAWAYS It's vital that you receive some kind of payoff as you make progress in anything, so as to motivate you to keep on pushing onwards. You must have a certain belief system in the ability to reach your end goal. If the task is impossible to begin with, and we believe that, it's too tempting to stop. BEST MOMENTS 'You've got to have a feeling of return on investment whilst in the process of moving forward. That's what keeps you moving forward' ‘Accept the adventure of what’s going on’ VALUABLE RESOURCES Take My Biohacking Quiz and Get A Free Personalised Report - www.yourtotalhealthcheck.comBecome an Insider of The Female Biohacker Collective and have Angela as Your Health Coach in Your Pocket - www.femalebiohacker.comFree Fasting Guide - www.angelafosterperformance.com/fastingPodcast Shownotes - www.angelafosterperformance.com/podcasts Thanks to our Sponsor: Bon Charge -  Get 20% off at www.boncharge.com/Angela   Episode 208 - https://omny.fm/shows/high-performance-health/jim-steele-his-book-unashamedly-superhuman ABOUT THE HOST Angela Foster is an award winning Nutritionist, Health & Performance Coach, Speaker and Host of the High Performance Health podcast.

Concentrating on optimal adrenal health can lead to some remarkable health benefits, including regaining energy levels. In this episode, Angela is in discussion with The Thyroid Pharmacist, Dr Izabella Wentz, who talks about her latest book 'The Adrenal Transformation Protocol', resetting the body's response through targeted safety signals, and the work she has successfully completed with over 3000 individuals to overcome bran fog, fatigue, irritability, sleep issues and anxiety. KEY TAKEAWAYS If you have coeliac disease and Hashimoto's, if you remove gluten from your diet, in some cases you can reverse the subclinical hypothyroidism and rid yourself of thyroid antibodies. Genetic predisposition, leaky gut and a trigger are the three things that must have manifested for an auto-immune condition to be present. When people are under a chronic stress response, their alignment with the circadian rhythm suffers greatly, and cortisol production might increase as a result. People starting off on their journey are wise to eliminate problematic foods through elimination diets of food sensitivity tests. BEST MOMENTS 'I wanted to know if there was anything I could do to make myself feel better' 'It's remarkable what an effect the environment can have upon our gene expression' 'Even without having coeliac disease, they feel better off gluten' 'I meet people where they are and try to give them strategies' VALUABLE RESOURCES Take My Biohacking Quiz and Get A Free Personalised Report - www.yourtotalhealthcheck.comBecome an Insider of The Female Biohacker Collective and have Angela as Your Health Coach in Your Pocket - www.femalebiohacker.comFree Fasting Guide - www.angelafosterperformance.com/fastingPodcast Shownotes - www.angelafosterperformance.com/podcasts Thanks to our Sponsor: Bon Charge -  Get 20% off at www.boncharge.com/Angela Dr Izabella Wentz - www.thyoidpharmacist.com/media ABOUT THE GUEST Dr. Izabella Wentz is a compassionate, innovative, solution-focused integrative pharmacist dedicated to finding the root causes of chronic health conditions.

Angela presents a teaser of her upcoming episode with Dr Isabella Wentz, otherwise known as "The Thyroid Pharmacist", and author of new book 'The Adrenal Transformation Protocol'. In this bitesized preview, Dr Wentz discusses the link between adrenal health and thyroid function. KEY TAKEAWAYS When people are under a chronic stress response, their alignment with the circadian rhythm suffers greatly, and cortisol production might increase as a result.

Most of us want to be in good shape and improve our health span, not just our life span. In this episode, Angela talks to dietician and science educator, Holly Baxter, about the most effective ways in which you can get lean, achieve optimal health levels, and remain vibrantly full of energy in a way that is the most beneficial for your body and mind, and why excessive cardio might actually be holding you back. KEY TAKEAWAYS If we engage in cardio too regularly, and carry a calorie deficit, it can negatively impact the energy available for muscle recovery when we need it most. The best way to increase lean body mass and reduce body fat is through incorporating a high protein diet and moderating caloric intake. The latest research into fat loss seems to suggest that there are few advantages in diets that are high in carbohydrates and low in fat vs diets that are high in fat and low in carbohydrates. Everyone is unique and has a bespoke set of requirements. The best coach or mentor will always prescribe an approach based on the individual's needs, and not a one-size-fits-all programme, as these rarely work. BEST MOMENTS 'I definitely had a strong focus on how to optimise my physique for performance' 'It's important to recognise that everybody has a unique preference for different foods' 'What is going to govern the rate of weight loss is the degree of calorie deficit' 'You've got to learn about your client and meet them where they are at' VALUABLE RESOURCES Take My Biohacking Quiz and Get A Free Personalised Report - www.yourtotalhealthcheck.comBecome an Insider of The Female Biohacker Collective and have Angela as Your Health Coach in Your Pocket - www.femalebiohacker.comFree Fasting Guide - www.angelafosterperformance.com/fastingPodcast Shownotes - www.angelafosterperformance.com/podcasts Thanks to our Sponsor: Bon Charge -  Get 20% off at www.boncharge.com/Angela ABOUT THE GUEST Holly Baxter is a Dietitian and Science Educator that has been involved in the health and fitness industry for some 13 + years, where much of this time has been dedicated to providing her clients and followers around the world, with evidenced-based education, and to putting up the good fight against the many misconceptions surrounding food, nutrition, and exercise.

Angela shares a clip form her interview with Dr Dani Gordon, a world-leading expert in CBD and medicinal cannabis, in which they discuss resiliency and how our mood, response to pain and trauma, inflammation, appetite and fertility can be affected. KEY TAKEAWAYS We have, as human beings, a system that naturally uses plant chemicals from the cannabis plant to help the brain and body balance itself. Cannabis-based medicines are not prescribed during pregnancy, only because our understanding of how it affects the mother and the foetus during this time is still unclear.

Skin is an integral part of any high performance strategy, and with this in mind, Angela welcomes to the show this week, Rachel Varga, an international speaker and a five-time academically published award-winning author in the field of regenerative and aesthetic nursing. Rachel discusses the ways in which we can biohack our way to healthy skin, the secrets of anti-aging, and how we can look and feel younger by embracing natural approaches. KEY TAKEAWAYS Ensure you're using products that are free of certain toxins such as sulphates and artificial dyes. Also avoid substances that have been tested on animals. The approach to changing up our product usage applies not just to the products we put directly onto the skin, but also a ore holistic range, such as soaps, cleaning products and detergents that have contact directly with us. Blood flow is essential to having good skin. It carries oxygen and nutrients to the tissues, and also detoxes, carrying away metabolic waste products. Many clinics are using counterfeit or low-quality lasers in order to perform skin procedures. Its always worth researching not just the specialists you hoe to visit, but the equipment they use. BEST MOMENTS 'I'm a big fan of using pregnancy-safe, kid-safe products on myself' 'Skin cancer cells can leech into the body and create other issues' 'I would burn in about ten to fifteen minutes' 'If you want good skin you have to have good blood flow' EPISODE RESOURCES Visit www.younggoose.com and code ANGELAFOSTER20 to save 20% off your first order Use the code AngelaFoster15 for 15% off of a One on One Skin and Rejuvenation Consultation with Rachel Varga at https://rachelvarga.ca   Use the code AngelaFoster15 for 15% off of all skin care, hair care, dermal rollers and hair/skin/nail supplements at https://rachelvarga.ca   VALUABLE RESOURCES Take My Biohacking Quiz and Get A Free Personalised Report - www.yourtotalhealthcheck.comBecome an Insider of The Female Biohacker Collective and have Angela as Your Health Coach in Your Pocket - www.femalebiohacker.comFree Fasting Guide - www.angelafosterperformance.com/fastingPodcast Shownotes - www.angelafosterperformance.com/podcasts Thanks to our Sponsor: Bon Charge -  Get 20% off at www.boncharge.com/Angela ABOUT THE GUEST Rachel Varga BScN, RN, CANS is a Double Board Certified Aesthetic Nurse Specialist since 2011 with over 20,000 procedures performed, host of a top 20 podcast The Rachel Varga Podcast, an international clinical trainer for other Physicians and Nurses, celebrity skin expert featured by Dave Asprey, JJ Virgin and more!

Everyone wants to burn more fat and stay healthier, but what's the best way to go about it? In this short, sharp biohack episode, Angela flies solo to tell you about three ways to dynamically reduce your body fat and set yourself up for a leaner life in general. KEY TAKEAWAYS We can often confuse our minds and bodies with a variety of diets, and get caught up in copying the success of others. We need to remember that certain diets don't work for everyone. A great way to add protein into your first meal of the day is to add greek yoghurt with a small handful of almonds and raspberries or blueberries. Look for ways to bring more movement into your day, even if it's just getting up more regularly. At places such as work, set small alarms and make sure you're doing something to raise your heart rate. BEST MOMENTS 'All of us have that little bit we'd like to lose' 'Nice fibre, healthy fats and some proteins' 'If you employ these principles, you are going to burn more fat' VALUABLE RESOURCES Take My Biohacking Quiz and Get A Free Personalised Report - www.yourtotalhealthcheck.comBecome an Insider of The Female Biohacker Collective and have Angela as Your Health Coach in Your Pocket - www.femalebiohacker.comFree Fasting Guide - www.angelafosterperformance.com/fastingPodcast Shownotes - www.angelafosterperformance.com/podcasts Thanks to our Sponsor: Bon Charge -  Get 20% off at www.boncharge.com/Angela ABOUT THE HOST Angela Foster Angela is a Nutritionist, Health, and Performance Coach.

Angela welcomes Dr Jolene Brighten back to the show to discuss her amazing new book 'Is This Normal? Judgment-Free Straight Talk About Your Body'. Dr Jolene also talks about sex, hormones, periods, and all things women's health. KEY TAKEAWAYS Fundamentally, women should all be taught the basics about how our bodies work, and how we can keep on top of our health and wellbeing. If our periods are so painful and uncomfortable that we are being forced to rearrange plans and our routines, then we should take it as a signal that things are not normal. Our bodies are naturally looking to procreate and create babies even if mentally we are not on the same page. Even though we do not wish to engage in fertility, your body will still set itself up physically to do so as this is the optimal health position. Mitochondria doesn't just ready our bodies for fertility by keeping our ovaries young. It also helps with other areas of our physiology, and can play a huge part in keeping dementia at bay. BEST MOMENTS 'Never should you ever find yourself in a position where you don't have the basics you need about your body' 'The way most people learn is by going through it and actually doing it' 'These are things we're told are normal, but they're really early signs that there's an issue going on' 'Mitochondria is the power house to your cells' EPISODE RESOURCES Dr Jolene's Book, 'Is This Normal?

How can we take control of our brains so as to achieve any goal we desire? John Assaraf will be known to most people through his starring role in 'The Secret', as well as his series of neuroscience-based programs, books and consultancy work. In this episode, he joins Angela to talk about how we can train our brains and reprogram our way of thinking in order to maximise the gains we can make each day. KEY TAKEAWAYS Society is gradually conditioning us to use less of our brains, by religiously mapping out what life should look like. We are endlessly complicated beings and our minds are able to achieve far more. It's not enough to think that if we believe then we will achieve. We must add the law of GOYA, which essentially tells us that if we want something, then we have to do the right thing at the right time in the right order. There is no more powerful motivator than vision. If we can truly see the points at which we wish to reach, then we are far more likely to achieve them. We have 100 billion cells in our brains, all emitting a frequency. If we are energy and our thoughts and emotions activate a frequency, then we must consider whether we are tuning into chaos or coherence. BEST MOMENTS 'We've become hypnotised by what society expects us to achieve' 'We don't want to force because force negates' 'Are we tuning into chaos or coherence?' 'You are the conductor. If you let the instruments dictate to you, then okay - suffer' EPISODE RESOURCES John Assaraf - https://www.johnassaraf.com Brainathon - www.brainathon123.com VALUABLE RESOURCES Take My Biohacking Quiz and Get A Free Personalised Report - www.yourtotalhealthcheck.comBecome an Insider of The Female Biohacker Collective and have Angela as Your Health Coach in Your Pocket - www.femalebiohacker.comFree Fasting Guide - www.angelafosterperformance.com/fastingPodcast Shownotes - www.angelafosterperformance.com/podcasts Thanks to our Sponsor: Bon Charge -  Get 20% off at www.boncharge.com/Angela ABOUT THE GUEST John Assaraf is one of the leading high-performance, success coaches in the world.

John Assaraf will be known to most people through his starring role in 'The Secret', as well as his series of neuroscience-based programs, books and consultancy work. In this bitesize biohack edition, John discusses affirmations and how they are meant to work, and effective ways in which we can channel our brain into performing better and achieving more. KEY TAKEAWAYS Many think that affirmations are simply a sentence describing something that is true. In reality, we are affirming in our minds - what we want to be true. We should treat our brains like an orchestra with ourselves as the conductor. It is our job to quieten down the voices in our minds that are too loud at times, and raise up the voices that are too quiet.
