Bitesize Biohack: Is This Normal? Periods, Birth Control and PCOS with Dr Jolene Brighten Jul 27, 2023

Show notes

From her interview with Jolene Brighten, Angela presents a biohack episode dedicated to helping you better understand the menstrual cycle and the struggles it can raise by focussing upon what a normal period should look like.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

If your period is so painful that interrupts the activities you perform as part of daily living, then there is a problem somewhere, and you need to be checked out.
The period and the menstrual cycle are different entities, but they do go together hand in hand. You cannot judge one based upon the other.

BEST MOMENTS

'Periods shouldn't be so painful that you have to pop a pharmaceutical'

'A period, for a woman is her own lived experience'

Unmasking Me - Life-Changing Lessons from a Year Without Alcohol Jul 26, 2023

Show notes

In this very special bonus episode, Angela talks about the life-changing effects she has experienced after a year without drinking alcohol, and the frank, often-surprising answers to the question: would she ever drink again?

KEY TAKEAWAYS

When you create goals you should always set stages, meaning that you can reach wins more regularly. This stops us from feeling a sense of distance from the result.
Post-natal depression can affect those who have never experienced mental health issues before, and who least expect to feel bad.
Alcohol can often be used as a crutch. It numbs the anxiety, nerves or pain. It takes the edge off. The problem is that it stops us from looking internally to find the solution to the pain.

BEST MOMENTS

'When you create goals that are that big, and you haven't broken them down into stages, it can be the biggest impediment to your achieving it'

'That was a really defining moment'

'It's only really now that I feel that I can talk about this'

'I want to help people from a place of scars, not wounds'

Manifesting Miracles - How to Journal Your Way to Your Higher Self with Roxanne Saffaie Jul 24, 2023

Show notes

Roxanne Saffaie is a writer, speaker and the creator and host of The Roxanne Show, dedicated to the art of self-mastery and personal empowerment.

In this impactful episode, join Angela and Roxanne as they discuss the power of journalling and how and why we should always make time for ourselves in order to better know and celebrate the person we have become, as well as take back control of life itself.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

We spend so much of our day on other people, but fail to recognise that we should put ourselves first. Making time for ourselves each day is a practice that we must normalise.
Self mastery is a life journey that continues throughout life. It is about continually asking how well we can know our true self.
Women can think that we know who we are, but we are surrounded by societal programming that can obscure this picture of ourselves.
There is magic between the mind and the pen - an alchemy that forms when we transmit our thoughts to the physical world.

BEST MOMENTS

'Is there ten minutes somewhere in your day where you can say "these ten minutes belong to me"?'

'Journaling is a path to your higher self'

'How much can we truly come to know our true self?'

'It's about allowing your mind to just go'

Bitesize Biohack: Harnessing the Power of Micro Movements for Optimal Energy and Brain Health Jul 20, 2023

Show notes

Micro movements throughout the day can enhance blood flow, aids recovery, builds energy and concentration levels, and improves brain health. In this bitesize biohack episode, Angela presents a piece of her conversation with Dr Michael Mosley, who explains the science behind micro movements, why squats are so good, and the importance of stairs (both down and up)

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The squat and press-up, because they are vertical movements, provide huge surges of blood to the brain which trigger a substance that acts like fertiliser.
Many underestimate the impact that resistance training will have, not just while performing it, but also at rest. It can improve factors such as insulin sensitivity as well as general wellbeing.

BEST MOMENTS

'This is like fertiliser for your brain cells'

'It's easier to get results in an unconditioned individual that someone who is already conditioned'

Methylene Blue, Red Light Therapy and Biohacking with Dr John Lieurance Jul 17, 2023

Show notes

In this super biohacking-based episode, Angela talks all things mitochondrial health, brain health and light therapy with Dr John Lieurance, the author, physician and scientific advisor of MitoZen.com.

Angela and Dr John talk about how you can use light therapy along with powerful compounds such as methylene blue, fasting and consciousness to dramatically improve brain health and optimise your energy levels.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Your body uses glucose and oxygen to function which is combined in a structure called the mitochondria. Each cell has a varying amount of mitochondria depending on the energy demands.
If we can be more efficient with our energy production, then we consume less vital nutrients in order to create energy. Young people burn more efficiently, and as we grow older we become less so.
Methylene Blue was introduced as a way of staining parasites in the bloodstream in order to observe malaria treatments. This was in the 1800s, and since has become renowned as an anti-microbial.
Methylene Blue turns your cells into miniature Tesla coils, super-energy producing machines. For individuals looking for athletic enhancement or an increase in brain power, it can give users a true edge.

BEST MOMENTS

'The ATP is to the body what gasoline is to a car'

'When you have an efficient process, you burn less glucose and oxygen'

'Methylene Blue is one of the most powerful brain enhancing substances that I have ever used'

'There's very little downside to this'

Bitesize Biohack: How to Stop Diets and Develop Metabolic Flexibility for Forever Fat Loss Jul 13, 2023

Show notes

The key to lasting weight loss is to tap in to the power of metabolic flexibility, which enables our bodies to efficiently burn whatever foods we consume. But how can we improve and train our bodies to be more metabolically flexible? In this week's bitesize biohack, Angela is joined by Dr Molly Maloof to tell you how.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Diets train us to cut out or add more of certain macros to our food intake, but this practice can, in the long term, make us far more inflexible in terms of metabolism.
You need to listen to your body when you're trying to change the shape and wellbeing you're seeing. The phase you're currently in can affect things greatly.

BEST MOMENTS

'You can get metabolic inflexibility from being too low carb for too long'

'You have this mind that wants to do what it wants to do, but you don't always know what your body wants’

Maximising High Performance - Mastering Stress, Cultivating Resilience and Building Adaptive Reserve with Eliza Kingsford Jul 10, 2023

Show notes

In this episode, Eliza joins Angela to talk about how we can manage our nervous systems, build adaptive reserves and enhance the control we have over factors such as resilience, energy and health in life.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Many people want to change but don't know how to get out of their own way. Finding the key to this has been Eliza's mission - the unblocking of that mental barrier that disallows change to start.
Our society, system and culture does not teach us to dream in terms of moonshot goals for ourselves. We encourage it as children, but when we reach adulthood, we add "safety barriers" that stifle our ambition.
The initial sense of optimism and excitement we feel when we envision our outcomes is hard to maintain. Every journey is filled with challenge. The trick is to focus hard on the bigger why.
The goal in nervous system work is to build capacity and flexibility. First the awareness of which state we're in, then the flexibility to move between the states.

BEST MOMENTS

'What drives change? How do people do that?'

'Our physiology really does influence everything we think, do say and feel'

'It takes a re-training of the brain'

'if you are sympathetically activated, you are going to execute a certain way of thinking'

Bitesize Biohack: The Power of 30+ Plants for Microbiome Health Jul 06, 2023

Show notes

Angela shares a short clip from her interview with gut health doctor, Megan Rossi, in which she talks about the importance of diversifying your diet in order to activate better health in the gut - the foundation of all wellbeing.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

People think food just has a health element to it, but food should be enjoyed, too. Those who actually revel in the pleasure of food have been proven to live longer.
Diversifying our diets not only aids out human cellular make-up, but nourishes the trillions of micro-bacteria that keep us healthy and functioning.
We tend to be extreme when it comes to diets. Mainly plant-based foods is a great way to go, but we shouldn't discount the value of meat and other proteins.

BEST MOMENTS

'If we take pleasure in food we're more likely to live longer'

'I love the idea of adding more things in rather than take more things out'

Brain Fog, Hormones and Protecting Against Alzheimer's Disease and Other Forms of Dementia with Dr Kavita Desai Jul 03, 2023

Show notes

Angela talks to Dr Kavita Desai - Women’s Health Specialist, Founder of Revivele & Author of Lady Parts: Putting Women’s Health Back Into Women’s Hands - about how to properly care for our brains, look after our cognitive health and prevent dementia, one of the most serious conditions affecting human health world-wide.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The World Health Organisation has reported that 55 million people globally now have dementia with Alzheimer's Disease being the most common form.
Women have been taking on a more prominent role in the care of the world, but with this has come a decline in the time we spend caring for ourselves. This is a rhetoric we need to change.
There can be changes in the brain in the run up to Alzheimers that form up to twenty years before main symptoms, meaning that we need to be prioritising our health much earlier that we tend to.
Now that DNA tests are so widely and commercially available, we can be more empowered in identifying potential issues in our future, giving us a greater sense of agency over our long term wellbeing.

BEST MOMENTS

'We don't prioritise ourselves, and we feel guilty if we do'

'Women seem to be disproportionately affected by dementia'

'We are at very significant health risks as we go through our perimenopausal years'

'I am a huge advocate of trying to prevent long term disease'
