The Truth About Vitamin E l The Power of Tocotrienols for Cardiovascular & Metabolic Health with Dr. Barrie Tan
On this week's episode we are joined by Dr. Barrie Tan, the world's foremost expert on vitamin E. He breaks down the major difference between tocopherols and tocotrienols, why your vitamin E supplement may actually be causing harm, and how his amazing discovery of the annatto plant can be used to treat non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and other chronic health conditions. Dr. Barrie Tan is hailed as a trailblazer and the world’s foremost expert on vitamin E. A scientist first and foremost, Dr. Tan earned his Ph.D. in Chemistry/Biochemistry from the University of Otago, New Zealand and spent several years as a professor at UMass. His research expertise includes lipid-soluble nutrients (carotenoids, E vitamers, CoQ10, and omega-3s) that impact chronic conditions. He was the first to introduce tocotrienols benefits to the nutrition industry and developed the first-ever tocopherol-free tocotrienol product derived from annatto. Dr. Tan continues to collaborate with numerous universities worldwide to further tocotrienol research. Beyond tocotrienol, Dr. Tan’s research now spans into geranylgeraniol, a critical endogenous nutrient for healthy aging. Dr. Tan is currently the President of American River Nutrition, a natural health R&D company he started with his wife, Elizabeth, in 1998. Described as a scientific pioneer, his mission is simple, improve the everyday health of people’s lives.SHOW NOTES:0:51 Welcome to the show!4:04 Dr. Barrie Tan’s bio5:18 Welcome him to the podcast6:40 Why don’t we know about Tocotrienols8:22 The difference between Tocotrienols & Tocopherols9:55 Where are Tocotrienols found?12:09 How he found it and what it is15:30 The universe wanted him to study this!18:16 Cooking with Annatto & cheese extraction20:29 *Magnesium Breakthrough Ad*22:49 What did nature intend for this compound?25:36 Comparing to other fruits27:08 Benefits to Cardiovascular & Metabolic health31:56 *Do Not Age ad*34:08 Triglycerides, Glucose & Tocotrienols36:03 Fatty Liver Disease, Inflammation & Weight Loss40:06 Are Tocotrienols a weight-loss product?42:07 Effects of Fats, Carbs & Alcohol on the liver43:45 Pancreatitis & NAFLD44:58 *Silverbiotics ad*48:08 The anti-inflammatory & antioxidant effect51:30 Body shapes: apple vs pear55:27 Dosing & timing for supplementation1:01:25 Cancer research & tocotrienols1:04:08 Geranylgeraniol (GG) & CoQ101:07:15 Should we get rid of Tocopherol supplements?1:08:07 Considerations for Pregnant women1:10:23 His final piece of advice1:10:58 Thanks for tuning in!RESOURCES:Website: Dr. Barrie TanInstagram: doctorbarrietanFacebook: doctorbarrietanLinkedIn: doctorbarrietanBook: The Truth About Vitamin EDesigns for Health 'Primal Multi' - Use code FIRST20NOW to save 20%Magnesium Breakthrough - Discount code: BIOHACKERBABES10Silverbiotics - Discount code: BIOHACKERBABESDo Not Age - Discount code: BIOHACKERBABESSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/biohacker-babes-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands

The Catching Point Transformation for Weight Loss with Dr. David Prologo
Join us for a conversation with Dr. David Prologo, a dual board-certified interventional radiologist and obesity medicine specialist. He shares the science behind why we tend to fail at diets and the importance of finding your "catching point" to achieve successful weight loss. His new book, The Catching Point Transformation: A 12-Week Weight Loss Strategy Based in Reality, comes from more than 2 decades of work in obesity medicine. Plus, his analogies make a complex health topic fun and easy to understand!Dr. David Prologo is a dual board-certified interventional radiologist and obesity medicine specialist. He has spent more than 20 years specifically analyzing the phenomenon of diet attrition - why do diets always fail? More importantly, when they do fail, why do we blame the patients for that failure? That journey led Dr. Prologo to perform first in human advanced interventional procedures to manage obesity, diabetes, and other medical conditions. It further led to the identification of the catching point - a clear pivot point beyond which calorie restriction and exercise are easier for patients. He has been recognized nationally and internationally for his work, including features on The Today Show, in the Washington Post, on Capitol Hill, in numerous peer-reviewed journal publications, countless web-based invited expert articles, and much more.
