The Jay Campbell Podcast

Insulin controlled living is the biggest topic in fitness, nutrition and optimization right now. What are the dangers associated with not keeping your insulin intake under control? What is the biggest mistake most intermittent fasters make when it comes to training? How are people wasting massive amounts of time at the gym? On this episode, Alexander Juan Antonio Cortes is here to share high-value wisdom on getting the most out of your workouts, and dialing in your insulin. If you want to have average health, have average health. If you want to have optimal health, you’re going to have to sacrifice something and/or go without it for sometime. -Alexander Juan Antonio Cortes Takeaways Insulin sensitivity is high in the morning and worse at the end of the day. There’s so many angles that a muscle can work against gravity, if you know those angles you know how to train those muscles. Where most intermittent fasters go wrong is training fasted. You adapt exercises to suit a person, you don’t try to make someone suit an exercise. At the start of the show we talked about insulin control, and how insulin production contributes to the diseases of aging. Next, we talked about how bad our social ignorance of our own biology is, and why most people don’t need as many carbs as they eat. We also discussed why you shouldn’t train fasted, “we don’t want to train a muscle under conditions of low glucose and low circulating glycogen.” Alex also shared how the environment is slowly distilling poison in us, and the factors we can control on a daily basis to mitigate it. We also spoke about; The difference between optimized training and ineffective training The rise of depression in women The importance of getting your blood work done every year after 25 Estrogen dominance People have no conceptualization of how holistically whole their health is, they tend to have a compartmentalized attitude. Everything you do is connected and self-determined, so optimizing your hormones, insulin controlled living and exercising are all in your hands, not a doctor’s. The people who are living their best lives have taken personalized control of their health, and that’s the best approach. As you age, your body will change and you have to ask yourself these objective questions, what do you want your quality of life to be, and how optimal can you keep your health? Base all your methodologies on those two questions.   Guest Bio Alexander is personal trainer and writer, who has made health, fitness, and all subjects thereof his area of focus and study for the last 8 years.

Outside of the UK, it’s pretty brutal for men to get hormonally optimized, and to even look into age management. What is the best way to go about getting the right help with TRT? Why is building muscle such a critical part of being healthy? Why does TRT work best when you’re actually exercising and taking good care of yourself? On this episode, we are joined by Michael Kocsis who shares on these topics, and on the work he’s doing. You cannot see the benefits of hormone optimization if you don’t engage in some form of exercise. -Michael Kocsis Takeaways There’s nothing greater than muscle to stop the aging diseases. The average guy has convinced himself that he can’t afford TRT but he can. You shouldn’t be going to the doctor under the age of 25 unless you have a serious health issue. At the start of the show, we talked about the state of hormone optimization medicine in other parts of the world. We also talked about the importance of not just focusing on sickness. We also discussed why muscle is the greatest deterrent to aging diseases and the importance of putting fitness and TRT together. We also discussed; The problems with the way doctors handle patients Sustanon as a delivery system Why you need to avoid processed foods There are so many pitfalls of the socialized medical care system. A lot of the physicians put more focus on sickness than they do on wellness, and doctors would rather prescribe a chemical than natural testosterone. To beat these pitfalls, you have to take charge of your own health and find a doctor who really understands what you need. It’s also important that you eat right and workout so that you’re getting the full benefit of your work with hormone replacement therapy. When you get the sweat and endorphins going, the testosterone works that much better and it will help with recovery.   Guest Bio Mike is the Director/Medical Facilitator at Balance My Hormones.

Most intermittent fasting gurus don’t know anything about training. What are the keys to training and fasting? What are the main benefits of the metabolic blowtorch diet? How does it impact your body’s disease resistance and give you better results? On this episode, Daniel Kelly’s back to share on his work on the Metabolic Blowtorch Diet, changing perspectives on testosterone and why being leaner is the secret to health. Some diet programs are so focused on actual weight at the expense of skeletal muscle mass. -Daniel Kelly Takeaways The question isn’t whether your testosterone is going to be lowered, it’s what you’re going to do about it. You deserve carbs after you train hard with weights. Average people who did alternate fasting lost 12,6 pounds of body fat and lost 0 skeletal muscle. You can fast two or three times a week and on the day you don’t fast, you train, lift weights and eat more carbs. At the start of the show, we talked about the decline of sperm production around the world, and how that is affecting global conception rates. Next we talked about why obesity is the world’s greatest disease and why people lose so much body fat when they do alternate fasting. Towards the end of the show, we spoke about how fasting reduces your inflammatory factors and why carbs are something you earn from exercise. We also discussed; Why the human endocrine system is under siege every single day The impact alternate fasting has on skeletal muscle Why fasting is more psychological than physical How the Metabolic Blowtorch Diet improves your workouts What most people don’t realize is that they are reducing their calorie intake so much that it is affecting their metabolism and working against their health. You end up hating yourself, hating the diet and perpetuating bad habits. When you diet and train the right way, you’ll get leaner and it will be metabolically okay for you to slack on your training days, your body will be able to handle carbs more, you’re more sensitive to insulin, and your muscle works like a really great pump. If you build as much muscle as possible as you age, you’ll be more resistant to disease, and the diseases of aging cannot show up if a person is well-muscled.   Guest Bio Daniel is a contributor on trtrevolution.com.

Preventative medicine is always a rearview mirror practice. What are things we have learned about aging and hormones? What are the necessary tests needed to determine how optimized your health is? Why is it beneficial to stop being controlled by food? On this episode we are joined by the great Dr. Ted Achacoso, who provides valuable insights on these matters. Medicine taught us that hormones decline because we age, but we actually age because hormones decline. -Dr. Ted Achacoso Takeaways Illness medicine diagnoses and treats disease, health optimization medicine detects and corrects imbalances. The most common cause of falls in adults is sarcopenia or lack of muscle tissue. If you can’t really control what you eat, control the time that you eat. All food and caloric intake should be determined based on activity level, insulin sensitivity and body fat. At the start of the show, we talked about what conventional medicine got wrong about aging. Next, we talked about the tests Dr. Ted runs to optimize his patients. We also talked about how medical advancements have allowed us to learn more about the human body, down to the cellular level. Dr Ted also shared the importance of dialing in what and how you eat and towards the end of the show, we talked about metformin.   We also discussed; Why aging is a myth The relationship between fasting and mitochondria The focus that comes from fasting The difference between food sensitivity and allergy Advancements in medicine and research have taught us that getting a control on hormones gives us a handle on aging, not the other way round. By keeping track of food sensitivity, micronutrient and hormone levels and testing for gut barrier integrity, people can have a better understanding of what we need to dial in to stay optimized. The goal is to get so addicted to the feeling of wellness that you know when you’re off kilter.

Dr. Nelson Vergel discusses the benefits of Metformin, including its impact on weight, insulin levels, and high blood sugar. He highlights how it shifts gut bacteria and improves gut biome composition. The podcast also explores Metformin's impact on HIV patients and its superiority to berberine. The discussion concludes with insights on the ketogenic diet and diabetic mortality rates.

The mainstream message is that you have to exercise to stay lean, but that’s a fallacy. What is truly needed to be healthy and avoid aging diseases? Why is metformin such a great supplement? What is causing non-alcoholic fatty liver disease? On this episode, we are joined by Dennis Mangan, who shares on these insights and provides high value data and recommendations. A training program integrated with intermittent fasting will get you insulin insensitive. Once you get insulin sensitivity, you’ll be a lot more adapted to fasting. - Dennis Mangan Three Takeaways The biggest hurdle to becoming fast adapted is psychological. Cancer feeds on insulin, sugar, and iron. If all these are under control you can lower your risk. Metformin applied topically speeds up the wound healing process. At the start of the show, Dennis talked about intermittent fasting, and why it’s so important to get good nutrition. Next, we talked about gut biome and how easy it is to get fast adapted. We also talked about the consequences of poor insulin sensitivity, poor food choices, sugar and GMOs. The importance of food and meal prep. We also discussed; The difference between metformin and berberine Why all disease will be proven metabolic Whole foods vs junk foods Why people fear hormonal optimization If you don't eat right, any amount of exercise will be meaningless. If you want to keep the weight off and avoid aging diseases, you have to watch what you eat. It’s also important to improve your insulin sensitivity, and limit all the inflammatory factors causing these diseases. It’s very simple to reduce risk factors just avoid sugar, processed foods and GMOs, exercise, get enough sleep and consider a supplement like metformin. If you dial in your insulin, controlled living, hormonal optimization, and lifestyle factors, you change health habits, increase longevity, and feel good.

As a species, men are 33 years from having no say in the population dynamics of this world. How can changes be made on a macro level to change the path we’re on? How are women being affected by modernization and contraception? What is synthetic estrogen doing to our environment? On this episode, we are joined by Dr. Aaron Grossman and we discuss these insights. We’re about to have a very uncomfortable conversation on a mass level about what our choices as humans have done to the environment and the direct effect it has on us. - Dr. Aaron Grossman Takeaways As a global population men are going to be infertile by 2050. Just because you’re fat and feeling blue that doesn’t mean you need TRT. You just might need to take better care of your body. Women are taking a synthetic drug to prevent pregnancy and it’s causing early menopause. All disease is just an inflammatory state. At the start of the show, Aaron gave us an update on chekd.com and trends he’s noticing with patients. Next we talked about the alarming study that said men are rapidly losing their ability to be productive. We also discussed how contraception is negatively affecting women, and towards the end of the show we talked about when you should start considering testosterone. We also discussed; Why we need to take a harsh look at the reality of the medical system Why you don’t automatically qualify for testosterone The importance of dialing in your lifestyle Because of our environments and habits, men are rapidly losing their ability to be productive and women are experiencing menopause way too early. All the choices we’ve made have led us to where we are, and it’s important to understand that if something isn’t organic, it will have a macro effect on our health and the health of future generations. We have to remember, there really is no one size fits all approach, you really have to optimize based on what works for you. You only have one vessel, so guard the best version of you.

Our routines are making us smarter and dumber at the same time. How can we challenge our brains to stay sharp and focused? How do you stimulate BDNF? How do you optimize your ketogenic dieting so that you get the very best out of it? On this clip, we are joined by supplement expert, Shawn Wells who shares on what we need to become highly productive. Having the ability to focus and filter out what’s not useful, and channel the best of your abilities to something is where you are highly productive. -Shawn Wells Three Takeaways Caffeine has diminishing returns, while theacrine gives you a smooth supply of energy without impairing sleep or needing increased doses. Crystallized intelligence gets better as we get older, but we lose fluid intelligence when we stop challenging our brains. Meditation and gratitude rituals help you get into the right state mentally to be able to focus and not be distracted. Wine: the more astringent the taste, the better. At the start of the show, Shawn shared how he got started and we shared on the benefits of theacrine, and why it is way better than caffeine. Next we talked about BDNF and its role in improving nerve signaling. We also talked about why multitasking is a trap, and how to become more productive. We also talked about alcohol, and the right type to drink to maintain health. Towards the end of the show, we talked about the relationship between chronic diseases and blood glucose levels. Shawn also shared on; The difference between crystallized intelligence and fluid intelligence Metabolic flexibility and combining fuel sources Low dose naltrexone vs. high dose naltrexone BDNF doesn’t just protect existing neurons and improve the functioning of nerve signaling, it stimulates & creates new ones. We get more BDNF by challenging our brains to learn new things and working on maintaining our fluid intelligence. It’s also important to feed our brains and bodies the ingredients that bring out the best in us like theacrine. Even though caffeine is powerful, it can become so addictive we need it to just function at a basic level. When you put care into what you put into your body, you will see incredible results.

The current healthcare system isn’t patient-focused, it’s revenue-focused. How is this current model putting patients at a disadvantage? What much-needed changes can be brought to medicine to make things better, and what kind of doctors do we need to fulfill this? On this episode, Dr Merrill Matschke shares on his transition out of the modern medical system. True doctoring takes time, but there’s gotta be true compassion and true interest. -Dr. Merrill Matschke Takeaways If Western medicine truly cared about the welfare of the patient, doctors wouldn’t be told to see 30-35 patients a day. Society doesn’t the impact of how we’re living in the biological assault we’re experiencing. Between 1973 and 2011 there’s been a 50-60% decline in sperm concentration. At the start of the show, Dr. Merrill shared why he’s transitioning out of traditional medicine, and how he got into cenegenics. He also talked about the current issues with traditional medicine and what is needed to solve them. Next we discussed the two-tiered medical system, and what it will take for people to finally take their health seriously. We also spoke about; Whether medicine is replacing the human element with automation Why it’s so important to take responsibility for your health How greed has led to the current health crisis we’re seeing In the current state of healthcare, patients aren’t getting enough time with the doctor for them to be helped. The future of medicine is having doctors who care, who want to work with patients on an individual basis in the amount of time necessary to help them. Additionally, people have to take personal responsibility for their health to counter the biological assault being caused by our lifestyles. Without this we will continue to see a decline in health.

Propaganda has been weaponized to affect the mindsets of certain communities. How do we rise above this and connect with our own truth? How does living a positive life influence other people? Why is being fit a form of rebellion against the system? On this episode, Tobi Abegunde talks about how he turned his life around, and how he pursues his truth. I look at fitness as a scaffolding for my life. Once you have the discipline and the scaffolding, you don’t want to lose it. -Tobi Abegunde Takeaways The concept of meeting your mate in college and working at a company for 25 years doesn’t exist for millennials anymore. Doing positive things always has a circular effect because the people in your circle can influence other people too. Society is being conditioned to see masculinity as something to be demonized. With everything happening in this world, our greatest concern should be gathering resources and taking care of your tribe. At the start of the show, Tobi shared on his fitness and health journey, and how the decisions he made impacted people around him. Next, we talked about how the media is shaping opinions of masculinity and how men and women aren’t connecting anymore. We also talked about how propaganda has been weaponized, and finding your inner knowing. We also discussed; How networks and information drive everything The ripple effect of discipline How we can tap into the power within How technology has transformed the flows of information The media is actively shaping human opinions, and what we need is a consistent and energetic minority to shift the thinking. Thanks to technology, the flows of information have been transformed so it’s possible for people to learn the truth and live by it. We are very powerful beings with ability to tap into ourselves and find the wisdom and strength we need. Remember it’s all about finding what personally resonates with you. If you ask yourself questions and seek answers from inner knowing, you can change everything. Guest Bio Tobi is an implementation manager at The NYC Tech Talent Pipeline.
