Raise your hand if you’ve ever tried intermittent fasting or are considering trying it. Now I want you to raise your hand if you’ve ever reached autophagy. While I can’t see you, I’d bet that close to half or more have probably never heard of that word or, maybe you have but don’t really understand […]

Wouldn’t it be nice if you could improve your health in less time? I’m not talking about using quick weight loss strategies and fake detoxes that don’t work. Rather, I’m referring to biohacking your health, or as my guest Ben Greenfield puts it, it’s where you take one thing and make it more powerful or […]

I know what you’re thinking. Why would I bring Dr. Josh Axe on my show if his company is very similar to mine? Despite what most people think, we’re not mortal enemies, as I mention in the episode. It’s actually just the opposite and we have a lot in common, starting with a similar background […]

You may be familiar with detoxes and cleanses. Maybe you’ve even tried one or two. But what if I told you these barely scratched the surface when it comes to detoxifying the body? And because of that, they’re not nearly as effective as they could be. Yet, it is possible to detoxify, as you’ll learn […]

But after some convincing, Adee Zukier Cazayoux, CEO and founder of a nutritional coaching company called Working Against Gravity, finally gave it a shot by going through a 90-day trial to test the waters.

Whether you’re new to a ketogenic diet or a seasoned veteran, you probably already know the negative effects that come with eating too many carbs and tons of sugar.

Many women, especially those in perimenopausal and menopausal stages, find that a low-carb ketogenic diet leads to irritability and being “keto crazy,” as Dr. Anna Cabeca so aptly puts it. But does that mean keto is the wrong tool here or that a low-carb diet has a negative effect on women’s hormones? Not exactly. As […]

Is it possible to build muscle on keto? Or do you need carbs to do this? And if you don’t really need carbohydrates, what does it take? More fat? Or more protein?

David Goggins’ story doesn’t start out like most. Growing up, he dealt with an abusive alcoholic father and a mother who had to work 3 jobs just to keep up with the bills. All the while, he struggled in school due to a learning disability. At one point he decided to change his situation by […]

For the last 10-15 years, Diane Sanfilippo, a two-time New York Times best selling author of Practical Paleo and The 21-Day Sugar Detox, has been dubbed The Queen of Paleo, yet she’s been using keto as a tool the entire time. And despite that, she prefers not to be labeled as a paleo or keto […]

Have you ever felt like no matter what you did, including dieting and exercising, your weight still seems to stay the same?

But, as Dr. Perlmutter mentions in this podcast episode, a lot can change when […]

Is there a secret to longevity that only centenarians know? Is a glass of wine or whiskey a day really the common denominator to living longer?

Is it really possible to improve your sleep, skin health, muscle recovery, joint pain, cognitive function, athletic performance, and libido all from using red lights?

Do exogenous ketones or MCT oil stop fat burning? Is keto a possibility for wine lovers and drinkers? Is it bad for you to keep going in and out of ketosis? Or does this mess up your metabolism?

Many people don’t realize the amount of stress their body is dealing with on a constant basis. Some admit, isn’t that what 40 is supposed to feel like? But being burned out from juggling too many hats and always feeling tired and anxious should not be the norm. And if it is for you, you’re […]

Does this sound like you? “I’ve been doing keto for a few months now, hitting all of my macros and doing intermittent fasting, yet I’m not making any more progress. What gives?” While the start of your keto journey may have helped you drop a few pounds fairly quickly and boosted your energy, you may […]

Are all additives bad? What about ones found in foods like almond milk? Does stevia, monk fruit, or erythritol really spike your blood sugar levels? Why is it that some people don’t see high ketone numbers even when following a strict keto diet with fasting? I get questions just like these on a daily basis, […]

Measuring your ketone levels when you start a keto diet is a great way to quickly find out when you’re in ketosis or not, but getting caught up on this measurement and forgetting about other health factors is a mistake. Having a high level of ketones floating in your bloodstream doesn’t mean your health is […]

The people you spend the most time with are the ones who influence you the most. That’s great news when those around you have healthy habits and support you in your health journey, but bad news when they don’t. Anyone who’s tried to start a new exercise habit or diet knows how tough it is […]

Now it’s easier than ever to disrupt the internal mechanisms that keep us healthy. We disrupt our circadian rhythm by working long hours and having blue lights on late at night.

Sugar is one of the worst foods you can put in your body. It’s also one of the most common ingredients in our food system — lurking in everything from ketchup to protein bars.

After “drink more water”, what’s the most popular advice you get when you’re trying to fix any digestive issue? Eat more fiber!

If you’ve ever dabbled in strength training, you’ve probably heard it’s extremely important to eat carbs before and after your training session so you have enough energy to power through your workout and avoid losing mass.

When you start a ketogenic diet for the first time, your cells have to learn how to turn fat into ketones, and then use those ketones for fuel.

If you’ve ever looked for advice on how to boost your physical performance, increase your endurance, or recover faster, you’ve probably realized most athletes believe that loading up on carbs is the best way to get the job done.

Remember the old-school food pyramid you were taught in school? According to your teacher, mother, and the government, you could achieve optimal health by eating 6 or more servings of grains per day while keeping dairy, meat, fats, and oils at a minimum. That food pyramid has since been quietly retired, but our current nutritional […]

Most people would raise their eyebrows at a fully carnivore diet. The thought of eliminating plants and loading up on red meat goes against what we have been told by our parents, schools, and even the World Health Organization (WHO). However, if you’re following a ketogenic diet, paleo, or any other diet, you can supercharge […]

Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the U.S., according to the CDC. Not so coincidentally, two-thirds of our food consumption now consist of three grains: wheat, rice, and corn.

Did you know that 7 out of 10 deaths in the U.S. are due to chronic diseases? A chronic disease is one that lasts three months or longer, such as diabetes, arthritis, and dementia.

The food choices you make every day directly affect how your body functions. Make the right choices and you’ll thrive. Make the wrong ones and you’ll be sick, tired, and overweight.

Just like our food system is designed to encourage poor food choices, our environment is designed to perpetuate harmful movements and postures. Just think about it: Desk jobs are notorious for promoting bad posture, leg swelling, and pain in the low back, neck, and shoulders.

Chris is a renowned filmmaker who’s directed and produced the health documentaries Bigger, Stronger, Faster*, Prescription Thugs, and Trophy […]
