How would you just summarize 59 00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:59,200 Speaker 2: what you try to do with your content and the 60 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 2: information you try to present. 61 00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 5: It's nutrition and medical tips to help you save yourself. 62 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:10,560 Speaker 5: So using nutrition and medicine, you can actually save yourself. 63 00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:13,840 Speaker 5: We're always thinking, oh, there's this medicine, there's going to 64 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:16,440 Speaker 5: be like this life saving drug. 65 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:18,079 Speaker 4: There's going to be somebody who's going to help me. 66 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:19,800 Speaker 4: But really, when you do. 67 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 5: Eat the right foods and do the right things, and 68 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:24,680 Speaker 5: you know, get sunlight and go for a walk, and 69 00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:28,839 Speaker 5: those are the ways to save yourself. So we're talking 70 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:30,960 Speaker 5: about ways to save ourselves through nutrition. 71 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 1: One of the things I really appreciate about you and 72 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:35,800 Speaker 1: Laura and I are very much of this mindset of 73 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 1: preventative wellness, preventative living that is kind of your lifestyle 74 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:44,160 Speaker 1: of how do you live, how are you eating? And 75 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 1: so you won't face those issues. 76 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 4: Exactly because we never talk about it. 77 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,560 Speaker 5: We're always talking about what happens once you get the 78 00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 5: disease or you you know, are in that car accident, 79 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:57,960 Speaker 5: or it's like, how do we teach people to live differently, 80 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:01,000 Speaker 5: because if you live the default American life, you are 81 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 5: going to get those diseases and you are going to 82 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 5: need all those medications. So there's there's really not enough 83 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:07,800 Speaker 5: guidance around the nutrition side of it. 84 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:12,360 Speaker 1: Before LZ jumps back and I'm just kidous, what why, well, 85 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 1: why is American medicine like that? 86 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 5: How did be? 87 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:17,040 Speaker 2: I was just thinking it's so strong with you just said, 88 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:20,160 Speaker 2: if you live the default American life, you are guaranteed 89 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 2: to have those issues. Are you elaborate on that? 90 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:24,080 Speaker 1: And I hate to bang on them? Is it pharma? 91 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 1: Is it just because that's where all the money is? 92 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:26,640 Speaker 1: Is it that simple? 93 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 4: Yeah? To run a research trial it's not easy. 94 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:34,760 Speaker 5: It takes a lot of money, it takes a lot 95 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 5: of time and resources. And who's going to fund a 96 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:42,120 Speaker 5: research trial on you know, lettuce or cucumbers. 97 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:47,600 Speaker 3: You know, I need big lettuce to come in, big lettuce, right, So. 98 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 5: Who's going to get the funding to do these research trials? 99 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 5: And then somebody might say to you, well, there's a 100 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 5: resource study on libitoire, but there's no research study on fiber, 101 00:04:57,520 --> 00:04:57,719 Speaker 5: you know. 102 00:04:57,680 --> 00:04:58,159 Speaker 4: What I mean. 103 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:01,919 Speaker 5: And that's how it kind of have shifted and fharmand 104 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:05,200 Speaker 5: knows that they're very smart. They know that in order 105 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:07,359 Speaker 5: to win the hearts and minds of scientists, they're going 106 00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 5: to have to do these big trials, and they invested 107 00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 5: in that. 108 00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 4: And that's why I truly. 109 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:17,160 Speaker 5: Believe it's because we live in this like capitalistic society, 110 00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:19,599 Speaker 5: like you know, you want to make money, so they 111 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 5: know the ways to kind of sway the science a 112 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:22,760 Speaker 5: little bit. 113 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:24,240 Speaker 4: I'm not saying that they're all bad. 114 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 5: Obviously there's medications that are life saving, but it's really 115 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:30,240 Speaker 5: skewed the wrong way. 116 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:31,360 Speaker 1: It's a double edged sword. 117 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:32,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean. 118 00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:37,680 Speaker 5: There is governments funding for you know, things like diet 119 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:42,599 Speaker 5: and nutrition, but it's so so hard to do these 120 00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:45,160 Speaker 5: large nutrition study you need a lot of money and 121 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:47,600 Speaker 5: a lot of resources, so's there's not enough. 122 00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:51,080 Speaker 2: Well, something I've been kind of preaching about or ranting 123 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:55,159 Speaker 2: about to crisis since we started dating, is, yeah, the 124 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:59,600 Speaker 2: especially just what role food plays in our lives and 125 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:02,200 Speaker 2: the quality of food we get in America. To me, 126 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 2: the simplest and clearest example is this, and correct me 127 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,719 Speaker 2: if I'm wrong, but this sort of crazy statistic that 128 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,159 Speaker 2: to be a doctor in America you go to school 129 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 2: for years, but you only take like something like one 130 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:14,560 Speaker 2: hour of nutrition. 131 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 4: Is that true? 132 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 2: And why do you think that is? Why are our 133 00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:21,120 Speaker 2: medical schools not putting more of a focus on preventative medicine. 134 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 5: That was true in my time, and that was true 135 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 5: for many years. That things are really changing a lot, 136 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 5: Like I went to Cornell undergrad for nutrition and now 137 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 5: they have a very strong program with their medical school 138 00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 5: to kind of have a nutrition presence. It's definitely changing, 139 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:40,679 Speaker 5: but it's not changing fast enough and there's not enough knowledge, 140 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:44,279 Speaker 5: I think because we thought it was two different worlds, 141 00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:48,279 Speaker 5: and like when I went to nutrition undergrad there was 142 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:52,279 Speaker 5: like two paths outside that you could be a dietitian 143 00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:56,720 Speaker 5: and Most of those dietitians worked in the hospital or 144 00:06:56,760 --> 00:07:00,599 Speaker 5: you could work for a food company. That was pretty 145 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:03,479 Speaker 5: much the two pathways for nutrition, Like medicine was not 146 00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 5: one of the preferred pathways out of nutrition. It was 147 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 5: like a completely separate world. And I think we're learning 148 00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:14,800 Speaker 5: more and more about how food affects our bodies, Like 149 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:18,160 Speaker 5: you said, our mood, you know, fix the way we 150 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 5: show up on a daily basis. So I think now 151 00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 5: people are connecting the two. But you're right, like it 152 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:27,520 Speaker 5: really took forever and it's still not enough. 153 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:29,680 Speaker 1: So there's a lot of fads out there. There's a 154 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 1: lot of just kind of things that we say, and 155 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:36,239 Speaker 1: I want to start hitting some of these, and we're 156 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:39,520 Speaker 1: rapid fire through best we can. I was lucky enough 157 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:42,520 Speaker 1: to have a wonderful general practitioner back when I was 158 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 1: living in Los Angeles, and he was really early on 159 00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 1: on gut health. Yeah, and I know you preach a 160 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 1: lot about gut health, but what does that mean and 161 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 1: how can we have good gut health? 162 00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 5: Okay, gut health is such a buzz you know phrase 163 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:03,119 Speaker 5: gut health. Gut health really changes the number one way 164 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 5: we can change our gut is through diet. So nutrition 165 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 5: is the pathway to better gut health. Now you know 166 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 5: exercises too, So nutrition and exercise, those are the things 167 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:17,680 Speaker 5: that are going to heal your gut. And the gut 168 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 5: is really the center of our gut brain connection. That's 169 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 5: really the center of our bodies. It makes all the decisions. 170 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 5: And so when you take care of the mind, just 171 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:30,040 Speaker 5: like we talk about all the time, you have to 172 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 5: take care of the gut as well. 173 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 1: Okay, what are the gut bombs? The gut don't what's 174 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:37,080 Speaker 1: the gut dos? 175 00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:38,760 Speaker 4: You know what, doctor Shaw? 176 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:40,559 Speaker 2: I know one that you're going to say because I 177 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:43,319 Speaker 2: just saw it on your Instagram and as we were 178 00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:45,840 Speaker 2: just on vacation in Mexico drinking a lot of tequila. 179 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:48,360 Speaker 3: I don't want to hear it. I'm straight. 180 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:49,480 Speaker 4: Yeah. 181 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 5: So, you know, the data on alcohol is so strong 182 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:55,840 Speaker 5: about the fact that you know, it's not about no 183 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:59,760 Speaker 5: alcohol if you love it, prefer it, but that whole 184 00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 5: thing about how we thought having a drink or two 185 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:05,559 Speaker 5: or three every night was going to be healthy. I mean, 186 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 5: everyone intuitively knew that it wasn't really healthy, but you 187 00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 5: couldn't put your finger on it. 188 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 4: So now we know that it's really a lot less 189 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 4: than we thought. That's beneficial for you. It's like two 190 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:19,720 Speaker 4: to three drinks a week. You can have them all 191 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 4: at once, or you can have them spread out. 192 00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:23,400 Speaker 5: And obviously there's times you're gonna have more and less, 193 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 5: but on average, if that's what you do, that's kind 194 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:28,440 Speaker 5: of the sweet spot. If you love to drink, don't 195 00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:30,720 Speaker 5: love to drink, just stop it all together. So it 196 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:34,000 Speaker 5: has a prop you know, alcohol obviously is dehydrating, it's 197 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 5: a toxin for your body, so your body has to 198 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:36,800 Speaker 5: work to get. 199 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:38,280 Speaker 4: Rid of it. 200 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:41,120 Speaker 5: It also has effects on the gut bacteria that are negative, 201 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,600 Speaker 5: so you really do want to limit or cut that 202 00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 5: alcohol out. That's one of the gut bombs. Another gut 203 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:50,960 Speaker 5: bomb is antibiotics. Antibiotics have been overused for so many years, 204 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 5: and you know you're going to you're in Mexico, people 205 00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:56,040 Speaker 5: probably said to you, just take antibiotics with you in 206 00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:59,560 Speaker 5: case like, or just take them in, take them in advance, 207 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 5: or so much over use of antibiotics, and you know, 208 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:06,720 Speaker 5: antibiotics kill the bad bacteria, but they also kill all 209 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:09,320 Speaker 5: the other bacteria, so you're left with a sterile gut, 210 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 5: which is not what you want. You know, we are 211 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 5: looking for a very We want an Amazon jungle like 212 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:20,800 Speaker 5: gut with lots of species and different like growth of 213 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:24,760 Speaker 5: bacteria because they help us flourish and get nutrients from foods. 214 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:28,680 Speaker 5: If you kill them all off by consistently taking antibiotics 215 00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:33,439 Speaker 5: or over using them on your skin or eating foods 216 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:36,360 Speaker 5: with antibiotics in it, you end up with kind of 217 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:40,120 Speaker 5: a barren field. You know, if you can see that 218 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:44,440 Speaker 5: visual between a barren field and a dense rainforest, that's 219 00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 5: what a lot of Americans live with. 220 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 4: Is that barren field. 221 00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 2: We want to be in the rainforest, the Amazon. Yes, okay, 222 00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:58,000 Speaker 2: So alcohol and antibiotics. Now I heard this comparison with alcohol, 223 00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 2: and please give it to me right with the information 224 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 2: I heard on TikTok or something that if you think about, well, 225 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 2: alcohol can clean a wound, right like in the movies, 226 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:10,000 Speaker 2: if somebody's got nothing to do, they pour vodka on 227 00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:13,120 Speaker 2: their open wound. So someone said, think about what that's 228 00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:17,000 Speaker 2: doing to your bacteria in your gut. It's fully killing everything. 229 00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:18,960 Speaker 2: Does alcohol kill everything in your gut? 230 00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 4: I mean it's not that dramatic. 231 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:24,080 Speaker 5: It's not like a wound, right because we do process 232 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:25,839 Speaker 5: some of it as it goes through our bodies. 233 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:26,960 Speaker 4: Our bodies are really good. 234 00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 5: At detoxing alcohol, as you note, but it's at some 235 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 5: level that is definitely true. The more alcohol you drink, 236 00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 5: the worse it is for your gut. 237 00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:38,800 Speaker 4: You know. 238 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:42,160 Speaker 5: The other thing that comes with alcohol often is the 239 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:46,280 Speaker 5: other gut bomb is ultra processed foods. Ultra processed foods 240 00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:50,240 Speaker 5: now are proven to lower the length of life, make 241 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 5: your body, you know, brain and gut depressed, and kill 242 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:57,200 Speaker 5: the gut bacteria. And that's something I think we just 243 00:11:57,360 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 5: don't talk enough about because it's almost like, you know, 244 00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:06,240 Speaker 5: the backlash from diet culture is like, well, you should 245 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:09,439 Speaker 5: be able to eat anything, and you should eat everything, 246 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:12,080 Speaker 5: and you know, going through drive throughs is great, but 247 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:14,760 Speaker 5: you have to remember that this is literally killing the 248 00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:18,560 Speaker 5: gun bacteria that you're so desperately trying to keep alive. 249 00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:19,559 Speaker 4: Can I ask you on that. 250 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 2: I'm gonna side step for a second, But that backlash 251 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:25,600 Speaker 2: with diet culture as a doctor, does. 252 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:26,320 Speaker 3: That worry you? 253 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:28,360 Speaker 2: Where we are now? Has there been too much of 254 00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:31,839 Speaker 2: a swing the other way of every you know? I 255 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 2: mean I love the phrase everybody is beautiful and I 256 00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:38,240 Speaker 2: believe in it, but that kind of thought and rhetoric 257 00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:41,440 Speaker 2: and as you said, backlash, are we going in a 258 00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:45,720 Speaker 2: dangerous way of too much welcoming of everything. 259 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:50,280 Speaker 5: Well, I think ozepic and all the GLP one agonies 260 00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:54,280 Speaker 5: has changed that. I think now it's like open conversation 261 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:56,600 Speaker 5: to want to lose weight and to do it for 262 00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:59,760 Speaker 5: your health. Like I think this is it's helped in 263 00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:02,360 Speaker 5: opening up the conversation because I think for a long 264 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 5: time you're right, like it was like you couldn't really say, 265 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:07,439 Speaker 5: nobody could say they want to lose weight. 266 00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:09,480 Speaker 4: It was like it was like a secret, right. 267 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 5: And then now because of all these medications, it's very 268 00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 5: open in a big conversation and everyone wants to be 269 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 5: on them. And so it's really kind of now swinging 270 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:23,480 Speaker 5: back to the middle, hopefully. 271 00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 1: And hopefully in a healthy way. 272 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 2: We had a wonderful doctor on a recent episode and 273 00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:31,839 Speaker 2: we got into all of the different weight loss drugs 274 00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 2: with him. So we wanted to ask you kind of 275 00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:36,319 Speaker 2: the we definitely want to get into the losing weight 276 00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:39,079 Speaker 2: without those drugs. Maybe, But before we get off the 277 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:42,439 Speaker 2: gut bomb topic, say we've all just come off the holidays. 278 00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:44,800 Speaker 3: They had any great say we had. 279 00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 2: A couple of cocktails is it hopeless or is there 280 00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:50,520 Speaker 2: a way to reset your gut and fix it? And 281 00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:52,240 Speaker 2: how do you get that good bacteria back. 282 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:57,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, we're so plastic, like you know, plasticity in our brain, 283 00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:00,400 Speaker 5: plasticity in our gut. We can change our gun in 284 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 5: the matter of days, if not weeks, so we definitely 285 00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:06,840 Speaker 5: have that power. There was a landmark study in Nature 286 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:11,280 Speaker 5: that showed that in three days of changing your diet 287 00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:15,600 Speaker 5: very rapidly and very dramatically, they saw that the whole 288 00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:18,680 Speaker 5: microbiome was shifting in its actial species. 289 00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 4: So we have the power. They did the study, they 290 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 4: thought it was going to be two weeks, so they 291 00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:23,960 Speaker 4: took these They put. 292 00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:27,120 Speaker 5: People on a very high fat, high processed food like 293 00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:31,280 Speaker 5: junk food diet, and then the next two weeks they 294 00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:34,800 Speaker 5: were going to do like a really clean whole foods 295 00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:38,880 Speaker 5: low sugar diet. And they found within three days of 296 00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 5: switching their diet they were already changing their whole microbiome. 297 00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:44,440 Speaker 5: So there's there's a lot of hope out there. 298 00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:49,120 Speaker 1: That is good, thank God, because I know a lot 299 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:50,720 Speaker 1: of people listening right now are probably in the midst 300 00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:53,200 Speaker 1: of you know, dry gen is. 301 00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:54,720 Speaker 2: Dry January very beneficial. 302 00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:59,280 Speaker 5: Yeah, dry January is a big trend this year, and 303 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,720 Speaker 5: it has been over the last few years, but definitely 304 00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:04,000 Speaker 5: this year even more so. And I think it's because 305 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:08,960 Speaker 5: people are finally understanding the science behind alcohol and thinking like, okay, 306 00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:11,480 Speaker 5: well if I can't, let me just see, Like they're 307 00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:13,840 Speaker 5: just curious, like sober curious, like let me see how 308 00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:17,160 Speaker 5: it's going to feel to stop for a month and 309 00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:19,200 Speaker 5: then decide what I want to do in the long term. 310 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:21,360 Speaker 5: And I think that's a really, really great first step. 311 00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:23,400 Speaker 5: It's just taking a break and seeing how you feel. 312 00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:37,840 Speaker 1: Doctor a couple other things that are happening in January. 313 00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:40,360 Speaker 1: You know, Dana White talked about this. He went on 314 00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:44,320 Speaker 1: this like severe fast like a water fast, and I 315 00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:47,040 Speaker 1: think it was you know, took some nutrients as far 316 00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:49,640 Speaker 1: as supplements and stuff like that, but severe. And I 317 00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:51,360 Speaker 1: have some friends that are like, I'm going to do 318 00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:55,880 Speaker 1: a three to seven day severe fast. Is that a thing? 319 00:15:56,680 --> 00:16:00,200 Speaker 4: Yeah? So twenty four hour fast like a dinner to 320 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:03,160 Speaker 4: dinner fast is something that the Latter day Saints have 321 00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:06,640 Speaker 4: done for you know, in their culture or in their religion, 322 00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:08,840 Speaker 4: and they do it once a month, and the data 323 00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:11,760 Speaker 4: for that is so strong, even when you control for 324 00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:14,440 Speaker 4: all the other good things that they do in their lifestyle. 325 00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 5: Like community and good food and whatever. They were able 326 00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 5: to see that doing this once a month, just dinner 327 00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:26,040 Speaker 5: to dinner Sunday fast was extremely beneficial for inflammation and 328 00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 5: heart health. So that's something that I. 329 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 4: Think a lot of people can do doing longer fast. 330 00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 5: I say, doing longer fast is like running a triathlon 331 00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:36,920 Speaker 5: or an ultra marathon. 332 00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:39,320 Speaker 4: It's not for everyone, not everyone needs to. 333 00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:41,560 Speaker 5: Do it, but it's for those people who really want 334 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:44,960 Speaker 5: to push to the limits. And that's the people. It's like, 335 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 5: it's like asking you, like, should you run a triathlon? 336 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:51,280 Speaker 4: Like sure, like if you want to, but you don't 337 00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:51,920 Speaker 4: need to. 338 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:55,200 Speaker 2: Which fast is the triathlon? Is that the twenty four 339 00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:55,760 Speaker 2: hour fast? 340 00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:56,920 Speaker 1: Would you go? 341 00:16:57,680 --> 00:16:58,600 Speaker 4: Yeah? Three, four or five? 342 00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:02,400 Speaker 2: So would you recommend to almost anybody do it one 343 00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:04,240 Speaker 2: twenty four hour fast once a month? 344 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:07,679 Speaker 5: Yeah, like once a quarter, you know, try it. So 345 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:10,679 Speaker 5: the way you would work up to it, though is first. 346 00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:14,760 Speaker 5: The hardest thing for people, I think is doing an 347 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:19,440 Speaker 5: overnight fast. I know it sounds so stupid, but so simple, like, oh, 348 00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:23,880 Speaker 5: what do you mean stopping at seven and eating at seven, eight, nine, ten, 349 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 5: Like that's simple, but it's really not, because we live 350 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:29,960 Speaker 5: in a world where we're eating sixteen seventeen hours a day, 351 00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:33,080 Speaker 5: like your last bit of food, your last snack, your 352 00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:35,679 Speaker 5: last drink. So what I tell people is like, start 353 00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:37,399 Speaker 5: with extending your overnight fast. 354 00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:38,600 Speaker 4: Like, if you can get. 355 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:43,360 Speaker 5: To fifteen hours, fourteen, fifteen hours pretty easily, now, that's 356 00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:45,639 Speaker 5: when you know your body's probably ready for a little 357 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:45,920 Speaker 5: bit of. 358 00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:46,800 Speaker 4: A longer stretch. 359 00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:49,920 Speaker 5: But everyone should be able to do a twelve hour 360 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:53,600 Speaker 5: and then between twelve and fifteen. It may take some practice, 361 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:56,000 Speaker 5: and it sounds so simple, but like the first time 362 00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:59,119 Speaker 5: I tried an overnight fast, it was really tough for 363 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:01,639 Speaker 5: me because I was used to having a chalk like 364 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:04,280 Speaker 5: a little bit of chocolate before bed. And you know, 365 00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:06,200 Speaker 5: even that twelve to fourteen hours. 366 00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:09,600 Speaker 2: As her, we are so culturally trained to have dessert 367 00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 2: at night. I realized that because it's years of upbringing 368 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:14,119 Speaker 2: of like how do you end your night? Oh? Is 369 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:14,919 Speaker 2: something sweet? 370 00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:15,320 Speaker 4: Yeah? 371 00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:18,160 Speaker 2: And another a friend of mine, Kelly Levec, who's also 372 00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:20,880 Speaker 2: great on Instagram, Yeah, that suddenly she talks about a lot. 373 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:23,240 Speaker 2: She's like, I don't give my kids dessert every night? 374 00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:24,600 Speaker 2: Why has this become the norm? 375 00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:28,760 Speaker 1: Well? And Obviously, breakfast is breaking fast, that's the whole 376 00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:31,280 Speaker 1: thing is in the morning. Can you also kind of 377 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:35,200 Speaker 1: get rid of maybe some misnomers whatever, what actually breaks 378 00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:37,680 Speaker 1: fast in the morning. Can you get up and have 379 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:41,120 Speaker 1: coffee with no sugar? Can you have green tea with yeah, 380 00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:43,480 Speaker 1: maybe a pinch of honey. But is it no more 381 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,800 Speaker 1: than seventy calories that activates the end zomes in your stomach? 382 00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:47,480 Speaker 4: Yeah? 383 00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:50,040 Speaker 5: Absolutely, so you can you really want to stay away 384 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:54,600 Speaker 5: from anything sweet like sugar, honey or sweeteners. You can 385 00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:56,480 Speaker 5: have black coffee with the sposh of milk up to 386 00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:58,879 Speaker 5: about I would say forty five calories is what we 387 00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:02,600 Speaker 5: usually say. And you can keep your fast going. So 388 00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:05,520 Speaker 5: if you wake up you know you started, you stopped 389 00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:08,720 Speaker 5: eating dinner at seven, and you wake up at six 390 00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:11,280 Speaker 5: am and you want to push it till eight nine, 391 00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:14,119 Speaker 5: you know, whatever it is, then you can do that. 392 00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:16,600 Speaker 5: And I am like a huge believer in breakfast. So 393 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:20,280 Speaker 5: people always think like, oh, fasting means skipping breakfast. Actually, 394 00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:23,520 Speaker 5: the data over and over and over shows that eating 395 00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:26,720 Speaker 5: a breakfast is really healthy for your body, and you 396 00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:29,600 Speaker 5: don't necessarily need to skip it to be fasting. 397 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:31,880 Speaker 1: It is funny. It was like breakfast had the best 398 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:35,440 Speaker 1: pr campaign for a while. It's like it's the most important. Yes, say, 399 00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:37,720 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, there was such an anti 400 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:38,680 Speaker 1: breakfast Yes. 401 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 2: Well, no, this is exactly what I wanted to ask 402 00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:43,879 Speaker 2: you about. I don't understand the difference of because for 403 00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:46,600 Speaker 2: a long time I was just, I think, kind of 404 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:48,840 Speaker 2: a natural faster, like I didn't eat breakfast and I 405 00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:50,480 Speaker 2: would usually eat a light. 406 00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:51,840 Speaker 3: Lunch as my first meal of the day. 407 00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:54,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, but then I had all of these nutritionists and 408 00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 2: trainers telling me, you got to eat something for breakfast. 409 00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:00,719 Speaker 2: But what do you mean breakfast isn't breaking the fast? 410 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 4: This is confusing me. 411 00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:06,080 Speaker 5: Okay, So what I'm saying is that you can fast 412 00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:10,200 Speaker 5: and still have breakfast, meaning that, for example, if you're 413 00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:15,639 Speaker 5: someone who stops eating like six PM or seven p 414 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:18,080 Speaker 5: like I prefer that you have an early dinner. 415 00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:20,359 Speaker 1: Realistically, let's say eight o'clock. 416 00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:21,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, eight o'clock. 417 00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:23,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, people have kids and they're trying to get kids 418 00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:24,440 Speaker 1: down and all that. 419 00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 5: Absolutely, So eight pm to eight am is a twelve 420 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 5: hour fast. Pm to ten am is a fourteen hour fast. 421 00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:37,840 Speaker 5: And that's great, especially if you're someone who gets up 422 00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:40,720 Speaker 5: in the morning. Wants to work out, and you have 423 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:42,679 Speaker 5: your first meal after you work out. So what I 424 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:44,880 Speaker 5: mean to say is that you don't need to absolutely 425 00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 5: skip breakfast to be considered fasting. In fact, I prefer 426 00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:50,800 Speaker 5: that you move up dinner and have a really nice 427 00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:55,600 Speaker 5: time in the evening without food. That's harder, but it's 428 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:58,480 Speaker 5: just much more beneficial if you're someone who's trying to 429 00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:01,160 Speaker 5: balance your blood sugar, trying to some belly fat, trying 430 00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:04,359 Speaker 5: to activate your gut health, Like, try moving up that 431 00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:05,080 Speaker 5: dinner time. 432 00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:06,760 Speaker 4: That's going to do a lot more. 433 00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:09,600 Speaker 1: And doctor, how important is it what you are breaking 434 00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:13,440 Speaker 1: fast with is protein as opposed to cars? 435 00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:16,439 Speaker 4: Correct? Yeah, So I usually say for fasting is like 436 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:18,800 Speaker 4: the three apps. Okay, so you do. 437 00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:22,840 Speaker 5: Your fast overnight circadian style. I say circadian style because 438 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:27,560 Speaker 5: we live on the sun rhythm, and so trying to 439 00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:29,800 Speaker 5: time it so that you're not eating a lot after 440 00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:36,560 Speaker 5: sundown and eating short you know, not too much late 441 00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:39,200 Speaker 5: at night that's the goal, and then having most of 442 00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 5: your meals during the daylight hours is like that's kind 443 00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:45,200 Speaker 5: of that circadian rhythm. So fasting three apps are a 444 00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:50,239 Speaker 5: fasting fitness and then fiber protein food. So like you 445 00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:53,359 Speaker 5: want to have your overnight fast, then you want to 446 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:56,160 Speaker 5: do something like get sunlight, get go for a walk, 447 00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:59,560 Speaker 5: some little bit of fitness, and then you break your 448 00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:02,960 Speaker 5: fast with high protein, high fiber, and fermented food. 449 00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:04,159 Speaker 1: Gotcha. 450 00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:07,200 Speaker 2: Wow, Okay the three f's I'm going to say afy 451 00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:07,639 Speaker 2: out of that. 452 00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:08,960 Speaker 1: Yeah. 453 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:12,080 Speaker 2: Can you talk though, because we have a really heavily 454 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:16,480 Speaker 2: female audience and I've gotten really into the fasting research 455 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 2: over the last couple of years. But one thing I'm 456 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:23,040 Speaker 2: still super confused on is hormones and fasting and what 457 00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:25,960 Speaker 2: works for women because I've seen like, yes, don't fast 458 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:28,320 Speaker 2: during your period or you know, menopause is going to 459 00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 2: change that, and women seem to have to deal with 460 00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:31,880 Speaker 2: so many more factors. 461 00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:34,240 Speaker 1: When I went add on, is there a different length 462 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:37,359 Speaker 1: of time for women as. 463 00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:41,520 Speaker 5: Yeah, so absolutely so menopause is I would equate it 464 00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:45,240 Speaker 5: kind of like the week before your period. Menopause and 465 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:50,080 Speaker 5: perimenopause symptoms feel like PMS basically the week before your period. 466 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:53,840 Speaker 5: Often feel cranky, you feel tired, you feel bloated, You're 467 00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:57,840 Speaker 5: getting some water weight, and you just can't withstand the 468 00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:01,520 Speaker 5: stress both physical and ment to that. You did, you know, 469 00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:04,560 Speaker 5: the rest of the month so I know, for me 470 00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 5: that week before my period, I'm not training as hard. 471 00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:11,120 Speaker 5: I'm not going to be stressing my body as much. 472 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:13,119 Speaker 5: I'm not going to do as much fasting. I'm not 473 00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:16,280 Speaker 5: going to do as much stressful activities at work. I'm 474 00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:19,240 Speaker 5: going to try to listen to my body and be 475 00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:23,160 Speaker 5: a little more cognizant about needing a little more rest. 476 00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:28,920 Speaker 5: And that's something that happens more magnified during menopause, that transition, 477 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:31,800 Speaker 5: because you're kind of going through that hormone fluctuation like 478 00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:36,040 Speaker 5: you were going through with PMS, and so doing shorter 479 00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:39,520 Speaker 5: and easier fast is the way to go. Meaning that 480 00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:43,000 Speaker 5: doesn't mean you can't fast. It doesn't mean you shouldn't fast. 481 00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:44,760 Speaker 5: It just means that you don't want to, for the 482 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 5: first time do a twenty four hour fast that week 483 00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:52,040 Speaker 5: before your period or when you're in the throes of menopause. 484 00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 3: Got it? Okay? Did you write all that down? 485 00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:55,640 Speaker 4: Maybes? 486 00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:00,760 Speaker 1: I have so many I want to dive into. 487 00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:03,000 Speaker 2: Well, the second that you tell somebody you're having an 488 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:05,800 Speaker 2: incredible doctor on their podcast, they give you all their questions. 489 00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:09,320 Speaker 2: So I also have a list of questions from my sister, 490 00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:10,480 Speaker 2: my friends. 491 00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:12,919 Speaker 3: My mom, I just have like this list.

How do you feel about them? 498 00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:31,399 Speaker 2: What can they do to stay super fit without submitting 499 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:34,400 Speaker 2: to going on these prescription drugs? 500 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:37,520 Speaker 5: You know, just like everything, I think we're kind of 501 00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:40,560 Speaker 5: uh for telling a little bit of the future. 502 00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:42,320 Speaker 4: I think that whenever you have. 503 00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:45,879 Speaker 5: A lot of interest and a lot of excitement and 504 00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:49,040 Speaker 5: lots of people doing something, it's almost. 505 00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:50,240 Speaker 4: Setting itself up. 506 00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:53,920 Speaker 5: For some kind of disappointment after right, Like anything you've 507 00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:57,639 Speaker 5: ever seen that we've had that everybody was crazy about 508 00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:02,000 Speaker 5: in terms of diet or food or it kind of 509 00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:05,479 Speaker 5: becomes really really hot and then something happens and then 510 00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:07,959 Speaker 5: it's not as hot anymore. I mean, I can't predict 511 00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:10,200 Speaker 5: the future per se, but I do think that there's 512 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:12,639 Speaker 5: going to be something. We don't have enough data. We 513 00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:15,840 Speaker 5: don't have the trials that came out. They they're not 514 00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:20,320 Speaker 5: looking at the amount of people that are taking it 515 00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:23,159 Speaker 5: and the breath of people that are taking it, so 516 00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:25,040 Speaker 5: we're going to see a lot. We're going to learn 517 00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:28,040 Speaker 5: a lot over the next ten years about what's happening 518 00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:30,840 Speaker 5: and the side effects and the things to watch out for. 519 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:36,199 Speaker 5: So I think I don't think that it's going to 520 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:38,719 Speaker 5: be as crazy. I think things are going to settle 521 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:42,360 Speaker 5: down in terms of the regular person trying to use 522 00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:44,840 Speaker 5: these medications because they're going to see the other flip 523 00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:47,919 Speaker 5: side of it, which the you know, we've seen some 524 00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:49,239 Speaker 5: of the flip side of it, but I think we're 525 00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:51,880 Speaker 5: going to see it in big, big numbers as more 526 00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:54,040 Speaker 5: and more people, you know, go on it and go. 527 00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:54,520 Speaker 4: Off of it. 528 00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:56,639 Speaker 2: Well, I don't want anything negative to happen, but you 529 00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:57,760 Speaker 2: are giving me hope. 530 00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:00,479 Speaker 1: It's you know, too good to be each that's true, 531 00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:04,560 Speaker 1: you know, it probably is. There's always a reciprocal balance. 532 00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:06,800 Speaker 1: So there's always something that comes along with any drug 533 00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:07,200 Speaker 1: you take. 534 00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:10,400 Speaker 5: Exactly, there's probably going to be something that comes out 535 00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:15,000 Speaker 5: aside effect or kind of interaction or something that is 536 00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:17,240 Speaker 5: going to be scary enough that the people that don't 537 00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:19,280 Speaker 5: really need it are going to be scared off, and 538 00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:21,520 Speaker 5: so then the people who really do need it, the 539 00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:26,439 Speaker 5: people who actually are you know, very very sick and 540 00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:29,800 Speaker 5: have tried everything else and are morbidly obese. You know, 541 00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:33,080 Speaker 5: it's crazy to think, but we are at like forty 542 00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:36,399 Speaker 5: percent obesity and probably approaching fifty percent and not to 543 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:40,720 Speaker 5: many years. So there's a lot of people who maybe 544 00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:45,280 Speaker 5: grew into like you're born into a family of you know, 545 00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:49,200 Speaker 5: and your habits and your hormones and your gut are 546 00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:52,639 Speaker 5: just programmed in a different way. And so I do 547 00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:54,840 Speaker 5: think that those people are the ones who are going 548 00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:57,680 Speaker 5: to actually really benefit from these in the long term. 549 00:26:57,760 --> 00:26:59,520 Speaker 5: I think the rest of the people who are just 550 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:03,800 Speaker 5: doing it for you know, aesthetic purposes, I think there's 551 00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:06,520 Speaker 5: gonna be something that's going to deter them. But like 552 00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:09,960 Speaker 5: you said, you know, it's like any fad, there's gonna 553 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:12,480 Speaker 5: be there's gonna be something, and it's not going to 554 00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:14,320 Speaker 5: be a fad anymore. At least that's my opinion. 555 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:16,399 Speaker 2: And this was a submission from a friend of mine. 556 00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:19,240 Speaker 2: She had tried some of these weight loss drugs, and 557 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:23,240 Speaker 2: she said what struck her was how much it like 558 00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:26,200 Speaker 2: numbs those cravings. She's like, you don't, It's like you're 559 00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:28,119 Speaker 2: not reaching for the alcohol anymore. 560 00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:30,919 Speaker 3: You're not, you know, like, what can you do? 561 00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:34,239 Speaker 2: You have any advice then on how to deal with 562 00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:38,240 Speaker 2: cravings without being on those drugs, because it blows my mind. 563 00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:40,159 Speaker 2: How even for me, like we just said, at the 564 00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:41,440 Speaker 2: end of the night, I'll be like, oh, I want 565 00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:43,679 Speaker 2: a little piece of chocolate, or sometimes I think, oh, 566 00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:45,440 Speaker 2: I just really want a glass of wine. 567 00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:46,760 Speaker 3: How do you fight cravings? 568 00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:52,240 Speaker 5: That's a great question. So GLP one, what these medications 569 00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:58,359 Speaker 5: all help release is actually something that's natural in our 570 00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:02,480 Speaker 5: bodies that we can release. So eating more protein, eating 571 00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:06,400 Speaker 5: more fiber, eating more probiotic foods like these are dietary 572 00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 5: strategies to actually naturally produce GLP one and the other 573 00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:15,680 Speaker 5: the other like leptin and other things that make you 574 00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:19,080 Speaker 5: feel full. That's what we want to concentrate on, is 575 00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:22,600 Speaker 5: like how do we get more of that natural secretion, 576 00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:26,399 Speaker 5: so you know, getting enough sleep, eating enough fiber, eating 577 00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:30,280 Speaker 5: more protein, getting steps every day like these are always 578 00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:34,480 Speaker 5: that we can actually naturally feel less. 579 00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:42,080 Speaker 2: Ratings, love it secretions, Yes, yeah, no, that really is 580 00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:44,400 Speaker 2: helpful and again it gives me hope. And if people 581 00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:47,400 Speaker 2: don't follow you, please again she's at fasting MD. One 582 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:48,680 Speaker 2: thing I love about you too is that you make 583 00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:50,800 Speaker 2: your videos really fun, like with your daughter. She helps 584 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,840 Speaker 2: you film and you guys are super cute together. Are 585 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:58,520 Speaker 2: there concerns or things that you find yourself really talking 586 00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:01,040 Speaker 2: to her about as a mom about all this stuff? 587 00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:02,640 Speaker 3: Like, what's one thing you feel like you see in. 588 00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 2: The younger generation that you really want to instill Because 589 00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:06,600 Speaker 2: we have a teenage daughter too. 590 00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:11,040 Speaker 4: No, so it's so hard to be a teen these days. 591 00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:15,520 Speaker 5: We've seen like even beyond I mean, everybody's blaming it 592 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:20,560 Speaker 5: on social media, but the pressure for them, the rates 593 00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:23,040 Speaker 5: of depression and anxiety are just like at levels that 594 00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:25,200 Speaker 5: we've never seen before, and we don't really know what 595 00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:27,600 Speaker 5: it is, and so it has to be someone has 596 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:31,360 Speaker 5: to be social media because they're seeing other people. They're 597 00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:35,960 Speaker 5: seeing people, you know, looking altered versions of themselves, skinnyer, beautiful, 598 00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:38,080 Speaker 5: whatever it is. I think we have a lot of 599 00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:42,040 Speaker 5: conversations around that, like what's real, what's not? What is normal, 600 00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:46,840 Speaker 5: what's not it's I think it can be very skewed 601 00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:51,160 Speaker 5: when you're on TikTok of what's a normal girl and 602 00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:54,080 Speaker 5: what's normal beauty and what's normal. 603 00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 3: Daughters and ai. 604 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:56,920 Speaker 2: I mean we all used to just deal with a 605 00:29:56,920 --> 00:30:00,720 Speaker 2: photoshopped photo in Cosmopolitan magazine. Now it's constantly in the 606 00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:03,960 Speaker 2: palm of their hands every day, and you literally can't 607 00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:06,360 Speaker 2: tell what is a full AI creation. 608 00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:09,120 Speaker 5: Yeah, so we talk about that all the time, about 609 00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:12,960 Speaker 5: you know, what's real, what's healthy, what's not, because I 610 00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:17,880 Speaker 5: think differentiating that for them is so important. I really 611 00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:20,280 Speaker 5: don't think that the answer is just don't let them 612 00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:22,560 Speaker 5: use social media, Like, of course when they're young, you 613 00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:25,240 Speaker 5: can do that, but at some level this is part 614 00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:29,040 Speaker 5: of their life, so it's really just helping them navigate it. 615 00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:31,320 Speaker 1: You got to have that open dialogue. I mean, yeah, 616 00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:33,400 Speaker 1: it really is. And now it's for all the parents 617 00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:35,480 Speaker 1: listening out there and Laura and idea of it too. 618 00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:37,440 Speaker 1: It's unbelievably tough. 619 00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:38,480 Speaker 4: Yeah. 620 00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:40,800 Speaker 1: And by the way, conversely, I wouldn't want to be 621 00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:43,040 Speaker 1: a kid right now and trying to live their life. 622 00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:44,920 Speaker 1: I mean, it's incredibly difficult. 623 00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:47,640 Speaker 2: But I think it's interesting. You say you can't keep 624 00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:49,480 Speaker 2: them off social media. Do you just feel like that's 625 00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:52,240 Speaker 2: not a realistic expectation, like it's out there? 626 00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:54,440 Speaker 4: Well, I think you can. 627 00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:57,280 Speaker 5: You can limit it, like, yeah, for example, my daughter 628 00:30:57,320 --> 00:30:59,400 Speaker 5: goes to a school where they put their phones in 629 00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:01,480 Speaker 5: a lock box at the beginning of the day and 630 00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:03,280 Speaker 5: then they get it back at the end of the day. 631 00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:05,880 Speaker 5: And I love that because I think, you know, then 632 00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:07,800 Speaker 5: I don't feel so bad if she has an hour 633 00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:10,600 Speaker 5: of social media or TV time later in the day, 634 00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:13,480 Speaker 5: because I know that she's gotten a good education, she 635 00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:16,120 Speaker 5: had interactions with her friends. And then she also does 636 00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:18,520 Speaker 5: dance like my daughter does dance, and so ad dance 637 00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:20,040 Speaker 5: are not allowed to have their phone, so she has 638 00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:23,040 Speaker 5: plenty of activities where phone is not allowed. And I 639 00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:28,200 Speaker 5: think that's a great strategy for kind of balancing it 640 00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:32,080 Speaker 5: all because I think having no social media is really 641 00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:34,960 Speaker 5: really difficult, like my son. I have a son, and 642 00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:39,080 Speaker 5: he tends to have no problem shutting it off. I 643 00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:43,160 Speaker 5: think it's a personality. It's also really ingrained in the 644 00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:45,520 Speaker 5: social culture for girls, so I think it's a it's 645 00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:58,920 Speaker 5: a little bit more difficult with them. 646 00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:02,080 Speaker 1: Okay, we can't keep you all day, but a couple 647 00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:05,719 Speaker 1: more buzzworthy fads I want to deal with because I 648 00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:08,240 Speaker 1: was actually talking about you this morning with a good 649 00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:12,640 Speaker 1: friend of mine about saunas. It is such a big 650 00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:16,800 Speaker 1: thing right now. People are buying saunas. There's the Red 651 00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:21,719 Speaker 1: Light saunas, there's salt saunas, there's wet, there's dry. Is 652 00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:24,680 Speaker 1: this a thing? And if so, which one? Why? 653 00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:27,640 Speaker 2: I think what Chris is asking doctor Shaw's does he 654 00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:30,520 Speaker 2: have your green light to put a sauna in in 655 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:32,400 Speaker 2: our home. I was trying to get him a cold 656 00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:35,040 Speaker 2: plunge also for Christmas, but I couldn't figure out the lists. 657 00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:37,880 Speaker 1: Truth be told. I love I was in a salt sna. 658 00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:41,520 Speaker 1: I love a dry salt sauna. And you know again, 659 00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:43,320 Speaker 1: I follow a lot of people that you know, believe 660 00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:46,360 Speaker 1: in the exhaustion of the body and the stress of 661 00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:48,200 Speaker 1: the body, and that's what the cold plunge is about. 662 00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:51,719 Speaker 1: It's the immediate stress and and kind of sending your 663 00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:54,280 Speaker 1: body to certain extremes in a safe way. 664 00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:55,520 Speaker 4: Yeah. 665 00:32:55,600 --> 00:33:01,800 Speaker 5: So sauna data is super strong, but the data, a 666 00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:04,360 Speaker 5: lot of the data is out of Finland. The Finish 667 00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:09,479 Speaker 5: sauna data is the strongest and largest databases because in 668 00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:11,400 Speaker 5: Finland everybody does the sauna. 669 00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:14,920 Speaker 4: It is like a way of life. The control group, 670 00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:16,080 Speaker 4: like the group. 671 00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:21,880 Speaker 5: That they is once a week and the intervention group 672 00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:23,840 Speaker 5: was like four to seven times a week. I mean 673 00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:28,040 Speaker 5: that's like a lot, right, So we have lots of 674 00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:31,960 Speaker 5: good data from their culture. And so when people ask me, 675 00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:34,320 Speaker 5: like what top is SNA. I always tell them the 676 00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:38,040 Speaker 5: most data we have is from the Finish communities and 677 00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:41,040 Speaker 5: they're all using that traditional dry sauna at one hundred 678 00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:44,360 Speaker 5: and sixty seven degrees fahrenheit. So if you're following, you know, 679 00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:46,920 Speaker 5: you want to follow it to the tea. That's what 680 00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:50,320 Speaker 5: I would do. Now, heat shock proteins can be produced 681 00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:53,400 Speaker 5: with hot yoga, with steam room, with hot bath. There's 682 00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:56,440 Speaker 5: some data on Japanese hot baths at one hundred or 683 00:33:56,480 --> 00:34:00,280 Speaker 5: one hundred and three degrees fahrenheit that actually can also 684 00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:03,960 Speaker 5: produce heat shop proteins. So heat shop protein is the magic. 685 00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:07,320 Speaker 5: It's not necessarily don't necessarily need to be in a 686 00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:11,040 Speaker 5: particular type of sauna. But the most data we have 687 00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:13,560 Speaker 5: is a dry sauna. And then of course you can 688 00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:16,360 Speaker 5: probably extrapolate that to red light sna. You can probably 689 00:34:16,360 --> 00:34:20,320 Speaker 5: extrapolate that to any kind of heat related stress, because 690 00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:22,719 Speaker 5: as soon as you raise your core body temperature and 691 00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:25,080 Speaker 5: those heat shop proteins are released, you start to get 692 00:34:25,080 --> 00:34:25,800 Speaker 5: those benefits. 693 00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:27,799 Speaker 1: Yeah, we were up we I shot a show up 694 00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:30,440 Speaker 1: in the laplands, essentially the North Pole, and you know 695 00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:32,160 Speaker 1: they're doing it because you know the sun would come 696 00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:33,920 Speaker 1: up at like ten thirty or eleven o'clock if it 697 00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:35,160 Speaker 1: came up at all, and it would go down at 698 00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:38,040 Speaker 1: two in the afternoon and it's dark, and so you know, 699 00:34:38,080 --> 00:34:40,480 Speaker 1: they need that light and they get that vitamin D 700 00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:43,080 Speaker 1: that way. And yeah, you know, obviously we don't need 701 00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:46,839 Speaker 1: that as much in America, but still the idea of 702 00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:48,160 Speaker 1: it works. 703 00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:49,120 Speaker 5: Now. 704 00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:53,120 Speaker 1: Sauna and the cold plunge. Everyone talks about the cold 705 00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:53,680 Speaker 1: plunge people. 706 00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:56,240 Speaker 2: You're going to call this segment like truth behind the trends. 707 00:34:56,320 --> 00:34:58,920 Speaker 2: I see everybody on social media with a cold plunge. 708 00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:01,520 Speaker 2: Do you need to have one your home? How beneficial 709 00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:02,040 Speaker 2: is it really? 710 00:35:03,040 --> 00:35:03,279 Speaker 4: Yeah? 711 00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:06,680 Speaker 5: I think it's two different things. So cold plunge really 712 00:35:06,719 --> 00:35:09,359 Speaker 5: helps with inflammation. So if you're someone who is an 713 00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:13,320 Speaker 5: you're an athlete, you need to recover from an injury, 714 00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:16,080 Speaker 5: you have a lot of inflammation. That is definitely a 715 00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:19,879 Speaker 5: great thing to have. I think that you don't necessarily 716 00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:23,279 Speaker 5: need to have a cold plunge pool. You know, you 717 00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:26,480 Speaker 5: could do ice bath, which is the old school way. 718 00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:28,120 Speaker 5: You know, when people would come back. 719 00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:30,360 Speaker 4: From a game or be really sorees like sit in 720 00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:32,560 Speaker 4: the ice bath, or you could just do a very 721 00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:33,320 Speaker 4: cold shower. 722 00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:38,520 Speaker 5: I think the concept is just to be cold. Women 723 00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:40,840 Speaker 5: sometimes don't need to be as cold, need to be 724 00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:44,720 Speaker 5: in as cold water to lower their core body temperature. 725 00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:48,680 Speaker 5: So a very cold shower could be good. But the 726 00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:51,640 Speaker 5: sauna is a different thing. It's heat shot proteins, which 727 00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:54,440 Speaker 5: are like cardiovascular fitness. So if you think about it, 728 00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:57,520 Speaker 5: heat shot proteins are like, if you went on a run, 729 00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:00,920 Speaker 5: you would produce heat shop proteins, right, and so what 730 00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:03,240 Speaker 5: if you went on a run and you sat in asana, 731 00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:07,279 Speaker 5: you would get double or presumably a lot more heat 732 00:36:07,280 --> 00:36:10,520 Speaker 5: shock proteins. And so it's mimicking exercise. 733 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:11,520 Speaker 4: For you in so many ways. 734 00:36:11,680 --> 00:36:15,080 Speaker 5: For so the same cardiovascular mood, the brain, all those 735 00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:18,600 Speaker 5: benefits come and growth hormone, which I think is like 736 00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:20,680 Speaker 5: that was the deal breaker for me. I was like 737 00:36:20,719 --> 00:36:22,960 Speaker 5: growth hormone, Give me growth hormone. I'm going to do 738 00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:23,440 Speaker 5: the sauna. 739 00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:25,279 Speaker 1: Yeah, the ten to twenty minutes seems to be the 740 00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:29,400 Speaker 1: conventional wisdom on those, depending on the temperature of it. 741 00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:31,239 Speaker 1: Is funny because I mean this is a constant debate 742 00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:33,879 Speaker 1: of you know, because guys are idiots. You know, we're 743 00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:36,040 Speaker 1: not smart animals, as you know doctor. So it's like 744 00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:38,320 Speaker 1: I could sit in the ice bath for thirty minutes, 745 00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:41,480 Speaker 1: it's like you're past the point of diminishing returns here. 746 00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:44,439 Speaker 1: Is is it that three minute kind of golden rule 747 00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:47,680 Speaker 1: it's done its job? Or is there benefits to staying 748 00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:49,439 Speaker 1: in there for five minutes? Yeah? 749 00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:52,400 Speaker 5: I mean three to five minutes would be at the 750 00:36:53,719 --> 00:36:54,719 Speaker 5: time that you don't need. 751 00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:55,279 Speaker 4: To go past that. 752 00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:57,000 Speaker 1: Well, you know, guys, it's like, well if one M 753 00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:59,200 Speaker 1: and M is good, I'm gonna eat forty or if my. 754 00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:00,120 Speaker 3: Frind can do it and. 755 00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:04,120 Speaker 4: Ye yeah, like look how strong I am. 756 00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:06,360 Speaker 1: But is the idea of when you immerse it's the 757 00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:08,680 Speaker 1: it's the shock and it's the it's what it releases 758 00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:10,080 Speaker 1: in your body pretty much immediately. 759 00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:11,480 Speaker 4: Yes, And that's. 760 00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:13,560 Speaker 5: Why you were not supposed to do it after an 761 00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:16,560 Speaker 5: intense training session if you're someone who's trying to grow muscle. 762 00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:18,160 Speaker 4: Because you want that inflammation. 763 00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:21,840 Speaker 5: So like when you people do it wrong, they think, Okay, 764 00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:24,160 Speaker 5: I'm working out really hard and then I should just 765 00:37:24,200 --> 00:37:26,560 Speaker 5: go immediately to the cold plunch. No, you don't want that, 766 00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:30,480 Speaker 5: because when you're working out really hard, those inflammatory side 767 00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:32,080 Speaker 5: of kinds and all the things that are happening in 768 00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:34,439 Speaker 5: your body are sending signals for muscle growth. 769 00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:36,120 Speaker 4: They're going to be dampened when. 770 00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:38,359 Speaker 3: You go in that pocust right now, you've been doing 771 00:37:38,400 --> 00:37:39,200 Speaker 3: it wrong. 772 00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:42,040 Speaker 1: Oh just blew my mind. 773 00:37:42,160 --> 00:37:45,719 Speaker 4: Oh no, wait an hour go first. 774 00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:48,760 Speaker 1: Okay, go or go cold plunch first. 775 00:37:49,080 --> 00:37:49,920 Speaker 4: Yeah. 776 00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:50,640 Speaker 1: Interesting. 777 00:37:51,239 --> 00:37:53,759 Speaker 5: If you're trying to build muscle, it's not like you're 778 00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:55,320 Speaker 5: going to diminish all your returns. 779 00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:57,560 Speaker 4: But you're really think about it. You want to make 780 00:37:57,600 --> 00:37:58,480 Speaker 4: side of kinds. 781 00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:02,839 Speaker 5: You want those signals, those injury muscle injury signals, you know, 782 00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:05,760 Speaker 5: to be sent to say, hey, I need to build 783 00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:08,640 Speaker 5: more muscle because we just work this out. All of 784 00:38:08,680 --> 00:38:12,120 Speaker 5: that's dampened when you go waiting. 785 00:38:12,160 --> 00:38:14,120 Speaker 1: What about an hour? You said, yeah, bad, an hour. 786 00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:17,160 Speaker 2: Wow, he's the brain exploding emoji right now. 787 00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:21,040 Speaker 1: Oh no, this is why she's on the show. I know. 788 00:38:21,120 --> 00:38:23,440 Speaker 5: It's like a lot of people are doing it the 789 00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:25,960 Speaker 5: wrong way because you don't feel like going in it 790 00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:26,560 Speaker 5: in the beginning. 791 00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:28,160 Speaker 1: Well, the idea is, yeah, you've you've kind of torn 792 00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:30,319 Speaker 1: your muscles, which is what you do essentially when you're 793 00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:32,920 Speaker 1: working out or lifting or running or whatever. And you're like, 794 00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:35,440 Speaker 1: the thought is, well, I'm going to stop that inflammation. 795 00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:37,839 Speaker 4: But some of that inflammation is good. 796 00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:40,480 Speaker 1: Yes, inflation in that situation. 797 00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:43,280 Speaker 5: So if you're someone who's trying to recover from injury, 798 00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:45,640 Speaker 5: you go right away. But if you're someone who's trying 799 00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:47,920 Speaker 5: to grow your muscles, you kind of want to sit 800 00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:49,239 Speaker 5: in that inflammation a little bit. 801 00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:51,239 Speaker 1: So it's start off with that shock and start off 802 00:38:51,239 --> 00:38:53,080 Speaker 1: with being uncomfortable, and then go work out. 803 00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:56,920 Speaker 2: Okay, really dumb, but basic question because I'm building muscle 804 00:38:57,000 --> 00:38:59,760 Speaker 2: is something I'm trying to work on now. Yeah, should 805 00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:03,800 Speaker 2: you protein before or after your workout? I heard somebody 806 00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:06,600 Speaker 2: say the other day, never do a fasted workout, but 807 00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:08,680 Speaker 2: you mentioned earlier you might not eat till after. 808 00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:12,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's I don't know if you've ever seen like 809 00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:14,520 Speaker 5: if people have protein shakes, like as they're walking out 810 00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:18,040 Speaker 5: of the class, and there's this whole theory that you 811 00:39:18,080 --> 00:39:20,560 Speaker 5: needed to have protein right away, and so now we 812 00:39:20,680 --> 00:39:23,920 Speaker 5: realize you don't you have to have you know, you. 813 00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:26,320 Speaker 4: Want to have it between within one to two hours 814 00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:28,680 Speaker 4: of your workout, so before or after. It can be 815 00:39:28,840 --> 00:39:31,400 Speaker 4: used at any time. I'd like to do it after. 816 00:39:31,239 --> 00:39:34,440 Speaker 5: Because I feel like when your glucos stores are low 817 00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:39,319 Speaker 5: and you start, you replace your food to best chance 818 00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:40,520 Speaker 5: absorb all that protein. 819 00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:42,560 Speaker 2: All right, doctor Seaw, I think you might blow our 820 00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:44,759 Speaker 2: minds with these last questions that we have. Here a 821 00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:47,359 Speaker 2: few more truth behind the trends. I'm going to start 822 00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:54,239 Speaker 2: gross morning breath, mouth bacteria. I saw somebody the other 823 00:39:54,320 --> 00:39:57,520 Speaker 2: day say that you should actually wake up, swush water 824 00:39:57,600 --> 00:40:01,120 Speaker 2: around in your mouth and swallow everything that's like been 825 00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:03,080 Speaker 2: in your mouth in the morning, because that's such good 826 00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:03,879 Speaker 2: bacteria and. 827 00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:05,560 Speaker 3: You need it in your gut. 828 00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:08,360 Speaker 2: But then they like, but then you know, then people 829 00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:10,680 Speaker 2: other people are like, no, that's the worst bacteria. You 830 00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:12,759 Speaker 2: need a tongue scrape or brush your teeth first thing 831 00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:14,760 Speaker 2: in the morning. What are we doing with that morning 832 00:40:14,760 --> 00:40:15,600 Speaker 2: breath bacteria? 833 00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:17,480 Speaker 4: Okay, I'll tell you this. 834 00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:20,440 Speaker 5: There's really good data that shows that people who use 835 00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:25,799 Speaker 5: antibacterial mouthwashed twice a day have a higher risk for 836 00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:27,120 Speaker 5: hypertension and all. 837 00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:28,800 Speaker 4: These other cardiovascular diseases. 838 00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:32,239 Speaker 5: So we do have good bacteria in our mouth, and 839 00:40:32,280 --> 00:40:35,319 Speaker 5: you don't need to use mouthwash. Like traditional mouthwash has 840 00:40:35,320 --> 00:40:39,719 Speaker 5: antibacterial compounds in it, and using it twice a day 841 00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:42,279 Speaker 5: is really bad for you. So there's an extreme right 842 00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:45,240 Speaker 5: like don't do don't just use mouthwash. I know people 843 00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:48,600 Speaker 5: who use mouthwash multiple multiple times a day. That is 844 00:40:48,640 --> 00:40:52,040 Speaker 5: not good. Now, on the other hand, if you're using 845 00:40:52,040 --> 00:40:56,279 Speaker 5: a toothpaste that's not antibacterial that I don't think that 846 00:40:56,360 --> 00:41:00,319 Speaker 5: there's any reason to swallow the bacteria in your mouth. 847 00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:01,520 Speaker 4: I think we've. 848 00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:04,839 Speaker 5: Pretty much known that, especially if you have cavities or 849 00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:07,080 Speaker 5: any kind of bacteria grow in your mouth, you don't 850 00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:08,440 Speaker 5: necessarily want to swallow that. 851 00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:11,480 Speaker 1: All married couples are so happy get up, get rid 852 00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:12,440 Speaker 1: of the morning breath people. 853 00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:17,279 Speaker 5: Yeah, just don't overdo it on the mouthwash, which I 854 00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:18,319 Speaker 5: think a lot of people do. 855 00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:20,560 Speaker 1: I've heard that as well. Yeah, especially the heavy, heavy 856 00:41:20,640 --> 00:41:24,760 Speaker 1: alcohol ladened versions that so we get. 857 00:41:24,640 --> 00:41:26,600 Speaker 3: At alcohol's bad. Okay, all right. 858 00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:30,040 Speaker 2: Number two supplements. There is so much out there about 859 00:41:30,040 --> 00:41:34,160 Speaker 2: the different supplements we should be taking. I've heard there's 860 00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:36,839 Speaker 2: a lot of people talking about colostrum right now. I 861 00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:40,000 Speaker 2: know that you really preach about magnesium. Could you talk 862 00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:42,719 Speaker 2: about those two and maybe add in to the mix 863 00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:45,960 Speaker 2: any others that you think are just really underrated supplements 864 00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:47,120 Speaker 2: that you'd advise people to take. 865 00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:48,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think. 866 00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:53,200 Speaker 5: Coloster is like a trend, you know, it's like every 867 00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:57,280 Speaker 5: collagen trend. I honestly believe that this is not something 868 00:41:57,320 --> 00:42:00,759 Speaker 5: that you necessarily need in your diet, so it's a 869 00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:04,600 Speaker 5: nice to have or you know, full trendy thing ce 870 00:42:04,600 --> 00:42:06,359 Speaker 5: mos jel, you know all these things that can't come 871 00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:10,240 Speaker 5: up that just catch the wave. I think it's God, 872 00:42:10,480 --> 00:42:13,960 Speaker 5: it's kind of like that. There's nothing wrong with taking it, 873 00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:16,160 Speaker 5: but I don't think it's an essential supplement for everyone 874 00:42:16,280 --> 00:42:19,200 Speaker 5: and you don't need it necessarily when it comes to 875 00:42:19,480 --> 00:42:22,439 Speaker 5: vitamin D, magnesium, Omega three, So those are the top 876 00:42:22,440 --> 00:42:24,480 Speaker 5: three that I think I see a lot of people 877 00:42:25,719 --> 00:42:26,279 Speaker 5: benefit from. 878 00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:26,920 Speaker 4: So vitamin D. 879 00:42:26,920 --> 00:42:29,160 Speaker 5: If your vitamin D levels low, easy to check, easy 880 00:42:29,160 --> 00:42:31,719 Speaker 5: to supplement, makes a big difference. It works like a 881 00:42:31,760 --> 00:42:35,040 Speaker 5: hormone hormone in your body. It is a immune booster, 882 00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:37,439 Speaker 5: it's a gut health booster. I mean, vitamin D does 883 00:42:37,480 --> 00:42:40,399 Speaker 5: so many things beyond what we think it does. Saying 884 00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:43,840 Speaker 5: with magnesium, there's like, you know, hundreds of enzomatic processes 885 00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:47,040 Speaker 5: in the body that magnesium helps with. So having a 886 00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:49,600 Speaker 5: high magnesium diet and then if you want to supplement, 887 00:42:49,960 --> 00:42:54,240 Speaker 5: you can, especially women around that perimenopausal time, they really 888 00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:57,520 Speaker 5: find benefit in having a higher magnesium diet. And then 889 00:42:57,520 --> 00:42:59,719 Speaker 5: a new study came out that said, hey, if you 890 00:42:59,840 --> 00:43:02,600 Speaker 5: eat five hundred and fifty milligrams of magnesium in your diet, 891 00:43:03,400 --> 00:43:07,320 Speaker 5: you will have brain health that is much better over 892 00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:10,680 Speaker 5: the years, like as you age. And so now people 893 00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:13,000 Speaker 5: are trying to get five hundred and fifty milligrams of 894 00:43:13,040 --> 00:43:16,960 Speaker 5: magnesium and it's really difficult to do it with all diets. 895 00:43:16,960 --> 00:43:19,800 Speaker 5: So that's why magnesium I think has become super popular. 896 00:43:21,080 --> 00:43:23,520 Speaker 5: But it's something that you can get for nuts and seeds, 897 00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:26,520 Speaker 5: and it's not you don't necessarily have to take a 898 00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:28,880 Speaker 5: supplement if you don't want to, or if you're not 899 00:43:28,920 --> 00:43:31,359 Speaker 5: in that special group of women who are going through 900 00:43:31,360 --> 00:43:34,480 Speaker 5: perimenopause who might benefit from that just from their for 901 00:43:34,560 --> 00:43:38,359 Speaker 5: their hormonal symptoms. And then omega three is I mean, 902 00:43:38,400 --> 00:43:40,239 Speaker 5: it's great for your brain. If you're eating a ton 903 00:43:40,239 --> 00:43:42,880 Speaker 5: of omega three fatty fish, great, But if you're not, 904 00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:45,040 Speaker 5: you can take algae oil, which is great for people 905 00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:48,399 Speaker 5: or vegetarian, vegan or don't like fish. And these are 906 00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:53,000 Speaker 5: you know, brain foods and gut foods, and these are 907 00:43:53,120 --> 00:43:57,920 Speaker 5: things that can improve your body. I don't necessarily think 908 00:43:57,960 --> 00:44:00,319 Speaker 5: you need to take them all in supplement form. It's 909 00:44:00,719 --> 00:44:02,799 Speaker 5: you're probably getting a lot of itamin D while you're 910 00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:05,920 Speaker 5: out and you if you're eating a really healthy diet 911 00:44:05,960 --> 00:44:08,160 Speaker 5: and your levels are normal, you don't necessarily need to 912 00:44:08,200 --> 00:44:09,160 Speaker 5: be supplementing with it. 913 00:44:09,880 --> 00:44:11,960 Speaker 4: So it But those are the three that I think 914 00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:13,640 Speaker 4: a lot of people benefit from. 915 00:44:14,160 --> 00:44:17,839 Speaker 2: Okay, great, my last question for you. I feel like 916 00:44:17,920 --> 00:44:22,439 Speaker 2: my Instagram feed is full of people telling me if 917 00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:26,359 Speaker 2: you grate lemon peel into your food, or if you 918 00:44:26,400 --> 00:44:28,799 Speaker 2: eat six cups of broccoli a day, that you will 919 00:44:28,880 --> 00:44:32,000 Speaker 2: reduce your risk of cancer by ninety percent. It's like 920 00:44:32,080 --> 00:44:35,560 Speaker 2: all these things of these like I feel like it's 921 00:44:35,600 --> 00:44:38,600 Speaker 2: just people creating content, like for the comments. And what 922 00:44:38,960 --> 00:44:43,320 Speaker 2: are some foods that you actually recommend that have true 923 00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:47,359 Speaker 2: and real anti cancer properties if those foods exist at all. 924 00:44:48,320 --> 00:44:49,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, fiber, I mean fiber. 925 00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:51,719 Speaker 5: So when I talked to the three f's and I 926 00:44:51,719 --> 00:44:55,360 Speaker 5: said fasting, So fasting overnight is a great way to 927 00:44:56,760 --> 00:44:59,239 Speaker 5: so when you get your glucose levels down and when 928 00:44:59,280 --> 00:45:03,399 Speaker 5: you let your gut rest, you also improve your inflammation level. 929 00:45:03,480 --> 00:45:06,960 Speaker 5: So that's a strategy for anti you know, like preventing 930 00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:11,120 Speaker 5: cancer and inflammation. Then fitness, of course, exercise is a 931 00:45:11,200 --> 00:45:14,480 Speaker 5: huge strategy strategy for bending off cancer. 932 00:45:14,520 --> 00:45:15,279 Speaker 4: And then the. 933 00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:21,000 Speaker 5: Food is really high fiber, high fermented, high protein diet 934 00:45:21,200 --> 00:45:28,399 Speaker 5: meaning high fiber means broccoli, nuts, you know, salads, vegetables, 935 00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:32,520 Speaker 5: fruit berries, those are like, that's what I mean by fiber, 936 00:45:32,600 --> 00:45:35,920 Speaker 5: not necessarily a fiber supplement or something. And then fermented 937 00:45:36,560 --> 00:45:41,080 Speaker 5: probiotic foods like your yogurt, your fermented cott of cheese, 938 00:45:41,120 --> 00:45:44,239 Speaker 5: your apple side or vinegar, your kimchi, your souurkrap, a 939 00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:47,759 Speaker 5: lot of these things that we don't have enough of 940 00:45:47,840 --> 00:45:48,440 Speaker 5: in our diet. 941 00:45:48,640 --> 00:45:50,560 Speaker 4: Uh, is something. 942 00:45:50,200 --> 00:45:53,160 Speaker 5: That you we really see that improves gut health. 943 00:45:53,360 --> 00:45:55,040 Speaker 1: Are you an apple side or vinegar believer? 944 00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:58,520 Speaker 5: I'm not an applesider vinegar believer for the weight loss 945 00:45:58,680 --> 00:46:01,520 Speaker 5: or whatever it's it's but it can be one of 946 00:46:01,520 --> 00:46:02,440 Speaker 5: the fermented foods that. 947 00:46:02,440 --> 00:46:04,560 Speaker 4: You have, yeah, can help you get. 948 00:46:04,880 --> 00:46:07,800 Speaker 5: And then vinegar in general is really good blood sugar balancer, 949 00:46:07,880 --> 00:46:10,239 Speaker 5: so adding it to your salads or whatever, and then 950 00:46:11,120 --> 00:46:15,439 Speaker 5: eating enough protein but not too much. So protein over 951 00:46:16,120 --> 00:46:19,840 Speaker 5: people who are high level bodybuilders and eating excessive protein 952 00:46:19,880 --> 00:46:24,040 Speaker 5: that can be pro cancerous. But most women and most 953 00:46:24,400 --> 00:46:27,320 Speaker 5: people I know, busy people I know, are are under 954 00:46:27,320 --> 00:46:30,319 Speaker 5: eating their protein, especially as they age, So getting that 955 00:46:30,400 --> 00:46:33,600 Speaker 5: adequate protein is really good. But I would say The 956 00:46:33,680 --> 00:46:38,120 Speaker 5: biggest thing you can do for to prevent cancer is 957 00:46:38,160 --> 00:46:43,320 Speaker 5: that real food, fiber and exercise.
