ABOUT THE GUEST

Tina Anderson’s journey into the world of health had a unique start and some unusual turns. She began her career as a trial lawyer who specialized in settling cases by bringing both sides together, a personal passion of hers. Once her second child arrived, Tina left that high-stress job behind so she could focus on her family. Luckily, she was still able to use her considerable legal skills to point her career in a new direction as the in-house counsel for a family pharmaceutical company. But what Tina saw there made her change direction again. Frustrated by the many abuses in the pharmaceutical industry, Tina turned toward the field of natural health, and found her life’s work. She channeled her energy into learning all she could about disease prevention and good health maintenance. That led her to discover the importance of gut health and how connected and crucial it is for overall health and wellness. To share her discovery with the world, Tina along with her husband created a unique supplement that contains the superior probiotic strains of renowned researcher Dr. Simon Cutting. By promoting gut health and probiotics, Tina shares her passion for wellness, helping others live their best physical and emotional lives.

Unlocking Peak Performance: How Sleep Position Impacts Metabolism, Recovery and Health with Dr Peter Martone Oct 08, 2024

Angela welcomes Dr. Peter Martone, an expert in sleep biomechanics, to discuss the critical impact of sleep positioning on overall health and well-being. Dr. Martone shares insights on how proper spinal alignment during sleep can enhance restorative sleep, improve heart rate variability (HRV), and regulate the parasympathetic nervous system, which is essential for reducing stress and promoting recovery.

The conversation delves into the concept of the "triune of sleep," emphasising the importance of alignment, subconscious safety, and conscious relaxation techniques

MAIN TAKEAWAYS

The Sleep Triune: Alignment, Safety, and Subconscious Control: Dr Martone presents the Sleep Triune, explaining that true sleep quality starts with proper alignment. If the body is misaligned during sleep, it leads to subconscious pain, causing tossing and turning throughout the night.
Corrective Sleep Positioning for Spinal Health: The ideal sleep position is lying on the back with arms at the side, legs straight, and a pillow under the neck (not the head). This position supports the natural cervical curve and prevents long-term structural problems.
Sleep Avatars: Personalising Sleep Based on Subconscious Patterns: Dr Martone categorises sleepers into three avatars—Armadillo, Gorilla, and Ostrich—based on their subconscious sleep habits. Understanding your sleep type can help tailor strategies to improve both sleep quality and overall health.
Optimising the Vagus Nerve for Better Health: Misalignment in the cervical spine can compress the vagus nerve, leading to a range of issues, from poor digestion and immune system dysfunction to anxiety and depression. Aligning the neck properly during sleep can enhance vagus nerve function and improve parasympathetic tone.
Breathing Techniques to Calm the Mind: Focusing on long exhalations rather than inhalations helps calm the mind and body. Dr Martone recommends a simple technique: breathe in slowly, let the breath out even more slowly, and pause before inhaling again.

TIMESTAMPS & KEY TOPICS

00:01 – Introduction to Dr Peter Martone and the role of sleep positioning in health.
01:41 – The Sleep Triune: Why proper alignment is crucial for sleep and health.
06:51 – Corrective sleeping position: Back sleep with pillow under the neck, not the head.
13:15 – Understanding the three sleep avatars: Armadillo, Gorilla, and Ostrich.
21:07 – Impact of vagus nerve compression on parasympathetic function.
33:49 – Strategies to calm the subconscious: Pressure points and breathing techniques.
37:42 – Importance of exhaling for falling asleep: A simple breathing exercise.
41:28 – Customising sleep strategies based on sleep avatars.
42:42 – How sleep posture impacts your ability to create the reality you want.
45:15 – Call to Action: Take the Animal Sleep Avatar Quiz at DoctorSleepRight.com.

The Ultimate Anti-aging Biohack for Radiant Glowing Skin - Rachel Varga Sep 26, 2024

Angela talks to Rachel Varga about the world of skincare, focusing on the topical application of GHK copper and the intricacies of micro-needling. They discuss the importance of product stability and formulation, emphasising that the effectiveness of ingredients like hyaluronic acid, vitamin C, and retinol depends on their molecular size and stability.

They also discuss emerging skincare trends, such as NAD and photo-biomodulation, while stressing the need for thorough research and caution when using at-home laser devices.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Copper peptides are commonly used in skincare for pigmentation reduction and skin brightening, but the stability of the final product and the formulation's effectiveness are crucial for achieving desired results.
Microneedling does not require deep penetration; superficial treatments can enhance product absorption without causing pain or bleeding. Different depths can be used based on individual skin concerns, such as acne scarring or skin laxity.
Not all skincare products are suitable for transdermal application. It's essential to choose products specifically designed for use with dermal rolling to ensure safety and effectiveness.
Many at-home laser and microneedling devices can be ineffective or even harmful if not used correctly. It's important to research the quality and reputation of these devices to avoid potential skin damage.

BEST MOMENTS

"You do not need to go that deep. You shouldn't be seeing any blood. It shouldn't be painful."

"I always take new things with a grain of salt because I never want to waste anyone's time and money."

"Lasers are the number one point of litigation and where things can go wrong in medical aesthetics."

"I started to eat the right foods, follow a low inflammatory lifestyle, and now I'm actually at 90% skincare, dermal rolling, healthy living practices."

Human Design, Manifestation And Living in Alignment with Emma Dunwoody Sep 23, 2024

Angela talks to behavioural coach Emma Dunwoody about the fascinating world of human design, exploring its synthesis of ancient wisdoms such as Western astrology, the Kabbalah tree of life, the Chinese I Ching, and the Hindu chakra system.

Emma explains how human design serves as an energetic blueprint that reveals our unique superpowers, challenges, and life lessons, highlighting the importance of understanding one's design to enhance manifestation and personal growth, as well as the impact of conditioning on our true selves.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Human design is a synthesis of four ancient wisdoms—Western astrology, the Kabbalah tree of life, the Chinese I Ching, and the Hindu chakra system—providing an energetic blueprint that reveals how individuals are designed to operate in the world.
There are five main types in human design: Manifestors (initiators), Generators (inspired doers), Manifesting Generators (multi-passionate hybrids), Projectors (guides), and Reflectors (mirrors of truth). Each type has a unique way of interacting with the world and making decisions.
Conditioning can lead individuals to pursue goals and desires that are not truly aligned with their authentic selves.
Human design helps individuals recognize their true desires and superpowers, allowing them to break free from societal expectations and conditioning.
In human design, understanding one's strategy and authority is crucial. For example, Generators are encouraged to respond to external stimuli and trust their gut feelings, which helps them identify what truly lights them up and brings them energy.

BEST MOMENTS

"Human design is a synthesis of four ancient wisdoms which are Western astrology, the Kabbalah tree of life, the Chinese I Ching, and the Hindu chakra system."

"The more I was becoming aligned to my design, the more I had authentic desires, authentic things I wanted to manifest."

"What human design often shows us is that the thing we want to fix or change is actually something that is our superpower."

"The most amazing thing could turn up in your life, but if you have no passion, no energy, no lit up for it, then it's just not correct for you."

Bitesize Biohack 3 Ways to Burn More Fat! Sep 19, 2024

Everyone wants to burn more fat and stay healthier, but what's the best way to go about it?

In this short, sharp biohack episode, Angela flies solo to tell you about three ways to dynamically reduce your body fat and set yourself up for a leaner life in general.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

We can often confuse our minds and bodies with a variety of diets, and get caught up in copying the success of others. We need to remember that certain diets don't work for everyone.
A great way to add protein into your first meal of the day is to add greek yoghurt with a small handful of almonds and raspberries or blueberries.
Look for ways to bring more movement into your day, even if it's just getting up more regularly. At places such as work, set small alarms and make sure you're doing something to raise your heart rate.

BEST MOMENTS

'All of us have that little bit we'd like to lose'

'Nice fibre, healthy fats and some proteins'

'If you employ these principles, you are going to burn more fat'

Longevity Science: Unlocking The Secrets To Maintaining Peak Physical & Mental Performance & Slowing Aging with Siim Land Sep 16, 2024

Angela is joined by Siim Land, the author of "The Longevity Leap," to discuss the intricacies of aging and the various factors that influence longevity.

Together, they look into the biological mechanisms behind aging, including mitochondrial dysfunction and chronic inflammation, while also exploring the concept of peak physical performance across different life stages. Siim also discusses the importance of exercise, particularly cardiovascular training and strength training, in enhancing VO2 max and overall health.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Aging is a complex process influenced by various factors, including cellular dysfunction, mitochondrial health, and chronic inflammation.
Key characteristics of aging include telomere shortening, cell senescence, and loss of autophagy.
Different aspects of physical performance peak at various ages. While metabolic health is generally best in the teenage years, muscle strength peaks in the early 30s for men and early 40s for women.
After the 30s, many individuals may start to experience a decline in health, often exacerbated by a sedentary lifestyle.
VO2 max, a measure of maximum oxygen consumption during exercise, is crucial for longevity and overall health. It can be improved through both low-intensity and high-intensity cardiovascular exercises, with longer intervals (2-4 minutes) being particularly effective for enhancing VO2 max.
Strength training is essential for maintaining muscle mass and strength as one ages.
Focusing on compound lifts (like squats and deadlifts) and progressive overload is key to promoting muscle growth and functional fitness, which are linked to reduced mortality risk.

BEST MOMENTS

"The average person doesn't usually lift weights after their 20s... A lot of it is also just because of being sedentary and not actually lifting anything."

"If you want to improve your overall cardiorespiratory fitness, then you need to address all of the heart rate zones as well to increase your fitness."

"Chronic inflammation is pretty central to aging and all the whole chronic diseases as well."

"I think there's no evidence that multi-day fasting has benefits or that it would be providing any unique benefits that you wouldn't get from just a regular healthy diet." -

Self Worth, Wealth & Emotional Mastery with Peter Sage Sep 12, 2024

Angela is joined by Peter Sage to discuss the transformative power of auto-suggestion and affirmations as discussed in Napoleon Hill's "Think and Grow Rich."

They explore the importance of aligning one's heart and mind to effectively reprogram self-beliefs and self-image, and look at the critical role of environment and peer influence in shaping our thoughts and behaviours, highlighting how conformity can impact personal growth

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Auto-suggestion and affirmations are essential tools for self-development, but they are only effective when there is alignment between the heart and mind. Self-doubt can undermine the impact of affirmations.
The people you surround yourself with significantly affect your self-image and beliefs.
Being in a positive environment with like-minded individuals can enhance personal growth, while a negative environment can lead to conformity and stagnation.
Humans are naturally programmed to conform to their environment. This means that if you are surrounded by negative influences, you are likely to adopt similar behaviours and mindsets, making it crucial to choose your environment wisely.
The brain's reticular activating system filters information based on what is deemed important, such as personal relevance or safety.
Understanding this system can help individuals focus on what they want to attract into their lives.

BEST MOMENTS

"Most people are too busy running around in the level that I call by me... you're swimming upstream against the current of life."

"Affirmations don't really do anything if your heart and your mind aren't aligned. If you've got any kind of self-doubt, you're basically putting lipstick on a pig."

"We don't get to vote on whether or not we get programmed. We only get to vote on how we want to be programmed."

"If you're hanging around with people that have low self-esteem, I don't care how great you are walking into that environment. Over time, environment wins."

Neuroscience of a High Performing Brain (Part 1): Sleep, Trackers, Cortisol, Blue light, Nootropics and a look at Angela’s Brain with Dr Andrew Hill Sep 09, 2024

Get 50% off your Brain Map at Peak Brain with code ANGELA at www.peakbraininstitute.com

In the first of a two-part conversation, Angela talks to Dr Andrew Hill, a brain mapping expert, to explore the intricacies of brain mapping and its implications for optimising mental performance and overall well-being.

They discuss the science behind brain waves, the importance of sleep quality, and how various lifestyle factors, such as diet and exercise timing, can influence cognitive function. Andrew shares insights on the significance of deep sleep, the role of nutrition in brain health, and the effectiveness of sleep trackers, while debunking common myths about circadian rhythms and light exposure.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Brain mapping involves measuring the brain's resting resources using EEG to analyse brainwave patterns.
It helps identify tendencies related to attention, stress, sleep, and cognitive processing, rather than specific thoughts or feelings.
Quality of sleep is crucial for cognitive function and overall health.
Poor sleep can lead to issues like memory difficulties and cognitive decline, but improvements in sleep quality can lead to quick recovery in brain function.
Eating patterns significantly influence circadian rhythms. Fasting before bed and timing meals appropriately can enhance sleep quality and metabolic health.
Morning activity in a fasted state is also beneficial for regulating circadian rhythms.
While sleep trackers can provide insights into sleep duration and patterns, they may not accurately measure the quality of deep sleep or REM sleep.
Self-reporting on sleep quality can be just as effective as using these devices.

BEST MOMENTS

"Brain mapping is measuring the patterns, the resting resources in your brain... it’s mostly picking up how you tend to be. The resources in terms of their general way of being."

"If you have a habit of eating before bed, you're going to chronically be under-rested because you're not getting into deep sleep."

"I think humans are ultimately quite adaptable... people that think they're night owls are people that have dysregulated circadian rhythms."

"The most sophisticated sleep trackers are no more accurate than self-report after a month of self-report."

Bitesize Biohack: Do This to Access Calm on Demand - with Dani Gordon Sep 05, 2024

Angela is joined by Dani Gordon to discuss the importance of brain flexibility and resilience. They explore various techniques to optimise brain function, including simple mind-body practices like breath work and meditation. Dani emphasises the significance of matching practices to an individual's current state and journey phase, as well as the benefits of SMR training for achieving calm focus and stress resilience.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Flexibility in changing brain states is crucial for resilience and optimal performance.
Simple mind-body practices, such as breathwork, can help reduce stress and improve brain function.
SMR neurofeedback can promote calm focus and resilience to stress.
Tailoring practices like cold therapy and sauna to individual needs and tolerance levels is essential for effectiveness.
Ketamine therapy, combined with psychotherapy, can be an effective treatment for chronic pain and depression.

BEST MOMENTS

"So it's actually the ability to flexibly change states is so important."

"SMR is actually similar to the flow state. So there's high-tech ways of hacking it, there's low-tech ways of hacking it."

"It's finding what is the best way for you to tap into your flow state, really."

"Ketamine psychotherapy is a treatment we can do now in the UK for treatment-resistant chronic pain and for treatment-resistant depression."

Angela talks to the remarkable Julie Gibson Clark, who’s achieved high rankings on the Rejuvenation Olympics leaderboard, focusing on reversing her biological age through lifestyle choices.

Julie delves into her early experiences with nutrition and the impact it had on her performance as a young swimmer, as well as her transition to a healthier lifestyle in her thirties, including naturopathic interventions and the role of nutraceuticals in improving her well-being. Julie also emphasises the importance of intuition in guiding her health decisions and highlights the significance of a nutrient-rich diet, regular exercise routine, and daily meditation practice in maintaining her overall health and longevity.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Prioritise self-care and establish a routine that includes meditation, exercise, and healthy eating habits to manage stress and promote overall well-being.
Listen to your body and intuition, adjusting your lifestyle and routines as needed to maintain balance and health.
Consistency is key, even when faced with challenges such as parenting or health issues, finding ways to adapt and stay committed to self-care practices.

Bitesize: How to Banish Belly Fat & Reverse Insulin Resistance - Dr Clare Bailey Aug 29, 2024

Angela is joined by Claire Bailey to talk about the importance of monitoring and reducing visceral fat for overall health, particularly as individuals age.

They look into the risks associated with visceral fat, such as inflammation, insulin resistance, and the development of diabetes. Claire highlights the potential for reversing damage caused by visceral fat through weight loss and dietary changes, emphasising the benefits of targeting visceral fat for improved health outcomes

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Reduction in visceral fat is crucial, especially for women going through perimenopause, as it can lead to health risks like diabetes.
Visceral fat wraps around organs, causing inflammation and insulin resistance, but can be reversed through weight loss and draining fat from the liver and pancreas.
Monitoring visceral fat is essential as it can be an early warning sign of metabolic syndrome, diabetes, and even certain types of cancer.
Getting into ketosis by burning fat as fuel instead of sugar, through a low-carb Mediterranean-style diet and rapid weight loss, can help reverse insulin resistance and flatten the glucose curve.
Including pulses, whole grains, and fibre in the diet can support the microbiome and make the nutrition plan sustainable and accessible for long-term health benefits

BEST MOMENTS

"Visceral fat is the fat that as you put on weight and particularly if you tend to eat a sort of rather sugary starchy diet, it invades the gut and wraps around the organs and affects particularly the liver and the pancreas."

"There's very interesting research by Professor Roy Taylor who shows very clearly using scans that if you can drain that fat from the liver, the pancreas and around the central part of your body, visceral fat, you can actually reverse that damage."

"It alerts you because every time you sit down you feel like your skirt or your trousers or your jeans are a little bit tight and so it's a reminder I think."

"I think it's very important because the longer your blood sugar and the higher, the longer it lasts for, it's during that time that it's doing the damage."

Angela engages in a frank and candid conversation with the great Andy Ramage, who shares his journey of giving up alcohol and the positive impact it had on his life. Andy discusses his personal experience of transitioning from a high-paced, alcohol-fuelled lifestyle to one focused on health, fitness, and personal growth.

He highlights the importance of building healthy habits, setting goals, and staying committed to change, as well as emphasising the significance of overcoming ambivalence towards alcohol and creating a compelling future without it.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Recognising that setbacks and failures are a natural part of the journey towards change can help individuals bounce back stronger and continue on their path.
By setting clear goals and values, individuals can train their brains to filter out information that aligns with their aspirations, leading to more focused and purposeful actions.
Utilising alcohol-free alternatives in social situations can help individuals feel more comfortable and confident while socialising without alcohol.

BEST MOMENTS

"Life had plateaued a little bit. I'd got early onset heart disease I'd just discovered. My relationships were somewhat strained and it was a real awakening of Actually, what are we all doing? This is nuts."

"I think it's ambivalence, that love-hate relationship in our brain with alcohol, which most people carry. So there's that moment of awareness of, actually, I think this is not serving me anymore."

"When we can get so caught up in the steps, and that is a necessary part of it, like you say, you have to do the work, but you also have to switch your mind on to what's important."

Balancing Hormones, Health & Hustle for High Achieving Women Aug 22, 2024

Angela presents a very special recording of her highly popular appearance at the Health Optimisation Summit, in which she discussed the importance of optimising health for high performance, focusing on three key aspects: syncing the biological rhythms, stepping into personal power, and mastering self-reflection.

The episode explores the significance of respecting circadian biology, managing stress through recovery, and aligning actions with core values to achieve goals

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Struggling with burnout is common, especially among women in leadership positions.
Optimising circadian rhythms, managing stress, and prioritising recovery are crucial for high performance and health.
Heart rate variability can provide insights into stress levels and recovery needs.
Setting clear goals, focusing on the process, and celebrating small wins are essential for achieving success.
Living in alignment with values, finding flow, and practicing self-care are key to mastering the mirror and stepping into power.

BEST MOMENTS

"More than 10 million UK employees take time out because of burnout. Burnout costs UK businesses about 700 million a year."

"I was a corporate lawyer for many years, pulling all-nighters, weekends of work. What was circadian rhythm? I didn't really respect that."

"Within 48 hours of me making that decision, my white blood cell count started to rise. The magic was happening."

"Heart rate variability lowers in the luteal phase and in perimenopause and generally with aging. So we may feel less resilient to stress."

Balancing The Demands & Stress of Modern Life for Higher Energy, Hormone Harmony & Effortless Weight Loss with Dr Libby Weaver Aug 19, 2024

Dr Libby Weaver Nutritional, biochemist and multiple best-selling author talks with Angela about the three pillars of biochemical, nutritional and emotional which underpin her work and why our beliefs and perception drive our behaviours.

When we make choices about foods that don’t serve us it’s never about the food it’s the way we distance ourselves from the way we perceive things are when they are not how we want them to be and this fascinating episode explores how the combination of science, belief systems and nutrition is key in achieving effortless weight loss.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

There are consequences to shifts in our bio-chemistry
There is no one way for everyone to eat because everyone is different. What everyone should do is eat a diet that is based on real wholefoods
The focus needs to be on creating good energy and nourishment
Detoxification is a process that is always going on inside of us but can be impacted by lifestyle choices
Detoxification is a change process; the liver takes toxic substances and changes them so that they become harmless
Eating a wide range of whole real foods supports the liver with detoxification
Constantly elevated stress levels start to change the fuel the body perceives as being safe to use
When the body is under stress it looks for a fast-burning fuel and it looks to glucose.
The pattern of adrenalin production today has resulted in inflammatory compounds in the body
High levels of adrenalin create inflammation and cortisol has to increase to deal with this
Your body responds to the information you give it
Our actions are driven by our beliefs and how we perceive ourselves
We construct ourselves and live as if we need approval and in unpacking the beliefs you have created you need to be flexible about how others perceive you
You have to do the inner work if you want to make changes to your beliefs
It’s never about the food its always about the emotions
Humans will do more to avoid pain than gain pleasure
Ask yourself if what you are thinking is really true?

BEST MOMENTS

‘Every single second there are billions of biochemical reactions going on inside of us that create how we feel, function and look’

‘We are completely governed by how we feel’

‘Life can be incredibly challenging and simultaneously mind-blowingly magnificent’

Bitesize: Does Taking Antioxidants Reduce Lifespan? Aug 15, 2024

Angela is joined by Andrew Steele, to talk about the world of vitamin supplements and anti-aging compounds, exploring the scientific evidence behind their effectiveness.

The discussion covers the antioxidant theory, the role of free radicals in aging, and the potential impact of supplements like vitamin C, vitamin E, NMN, and rapamycin on lifespan.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Vitamin C and E, known for their antioxidant properties, have shown minimal or negative effects on lifespan in studies.
While antioxidants were once thought to combat free radicals and slow aging, free radicals also serve important functions in the body, such as signalling and immune defence.
Limited evidence for specific anti-aging compounds: Compounds like NMN and NR have shown mixed results in human and mouse trials, with no strong evidence supporting their effectiveness in aging.
Studies in mice have demonstrated that rapamycin can extend lifespan, even when administered later in life, showing potential as an anti-aging intervention.

BEST MOMENTS

"Vitamin C, for example, doesn't have any effect on lifespan. Vitamin E can actually reduce your lifespan, albeit very slightly, based on the results coming from these studies."

"We now know that it's not quite as simple as that antioxidant theory would imply."

"Rapamycin extended their lifespan anyway. They lived about 10% longer than mice that weren't given the drug."

Reverse Your Biological Age - Peptides, Spermidine, NAD, and Other Anti-aging Biohacks Explained with Dr. Neil Paulvin (Replay) Aug 12, 2024

For this special REPLAY episode, Angela welcomes back Dr Neil Paulvin back to the show, to talk about the latest in longevity science and transformational therapies - including biohacks such as spermidine, how to reverse our biological age, NAD and peptides - as well as much, much more.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Women need progesterone and oestrogen for muscle building and brain health, cognition, energy and more. Recent research has suggested that delaying menopause may work to serve health in these terms.
The key to longevity and long term health lies in the "Core 4" - sleep, exercise, diet and stress management. Circadian rhythm in particular can markedly affect the immune system.
For women in their forties, the decade in age itself is one of the busiest. Families are being raised if they've had children, career demands are at an all-time high. Energy demands are very high, and hormonal disruption is taking place. Mitochondrial health is crucial.
SS31 was founded by two scientists and hangs on the inner membrane of the mitochondria, and has been found to be a very good antioxidant. It also has been found to have an anti-inflammatory component, and can help with tendonitis.

BEST MOMENTS

'When we look at menopause, it brings with it potential adversities in terms of health'

'Sleep is when we recycle our hormones and increase the number of hormones we need'

'This has the most hallmark checks of any product in the world'

'I do believe in higher doses of both to get the real benefit of it'

Bitesize: The Success Hack Used By Top Entrepreneurs and Athletes To Achieve Goals Faster with Simon Alexander Ong Aug 08, 2024

Angela and special guest, Simon Alexander Ong discuss the concept of navigating the challenging "messy middle" phase when pursuing goals. They emphasise the importance of embracing the journey, detaching from specific outcomes, and adapting to unforeseen obstacles. They also highlight the non-linear nature of progress, likening it to different seasons in life where varying challenges and growth opportunities arise

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Embrace the messy middle of any journey, as plans may deviate and unexpected obstacles may arise.
Focus on falling in love with the journey and detach from the outcome to adapt methods and processes as needed.
Recognise that there is no perfect straight line in any path and that progress may not always be linear.
Understand that reality is subjective and perception determines our reality, allowing us to choose new thoughts to re-engineer our choices.
Choose to view life through a positive lens, believing that the universe is conspiring in your favour, to have a more productive and positive response to unexpected events.

BEST MOMENTS

"I think it's a case of reminding ourselves of some basic facts that we tend to forget when we're on that journey. It's very messy in the middle."

"No plan would have had that in their projections. And so I think when we consider the messy middle, first we got to realise that any plan we put together is always going to not go 100% to plan."

"There is no perfect straight line in any path."

"We all go through different seasons of our life, just like we go through different seasons of a year."

Do This (!) To Fix Your Metabolism, Harmonise Your Hormones & Optimise Your Longevity with Lara Briden ND Aug 05, 2024

Angela welcomes back Dr Lara Briden, to talk about her new book, "Metabolism Repair for Women" and the impact of modern food supply and environmental toxins on metabolism, particularly in women.

Dr Briden delves into the concept of insulin resistance and metabolic dysfunction, highlighting the intergenerational effects and the role of epigenetics, as well as various indicators of insulin resistance, including symptoms like constant hunger and weight gain around the middle.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Metabolic dysfunction, such as insulin resistance, is influenced by factors like modern food supply, environmental toxins, and genetic predispositions passed down through generations.
Common symptoms of insulin resistance include feeling hungry all the time, gaining weight around the middle, high cholesterol, high triglycerides, fatty liver, skin tags, and blood sugar fluctuations.
Dr Briden recommends key nutritional supplements for improving metabolic health, including magnesium, taurine, choline, inositol, and glycine, which can help with insulin sensitivity, nervous system balance, and overall health.
The autonomic nervous system plays a crucial role in metabolic health, and strategies to support it include stress management techniques, outdoor light exposure, human connection, and regular ovulation for women.
Berberine, similar to metformin, can improve insulin sensitivity and reduce metabolic endotoxemia, making it a potential supplement for addressing gut health and blood glucose control

BEST MOMENTS

"Something bad has happened in the environment and the food supply."

"This problem is a combination of food supply and environmental toxins."

"I think it's really important to recognise that what works for someone isn't necessarily going to work for somebody else."

Little Known Biohacks to Burn More Fat Without Counting Calories with Nate Palmer Aug 01, 2024

Angela and special guest, Nate Palmer, explore topics such as carb backloading, post-exercise refueling, and the importance of weight training for women's health. They also share insights on how to improve Lumen scores and the impact of factors like hydration and meal timing on metabolic flexibility.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Refueling post-exercise by consuming carbohydrates at the end of the day can optimise the body's natural storage and use of glycogen for energy rather than fat stores.
Avoiding high-intensity interval-style workouts, especially for women in their 40s and beyond, can be beneficial for hormonal function, bone density, and overall health.
Incorporating protein and carbs post-workout, especially after glycogen-depleting workouts, can aid in recovery and energy levels.
Eating earlier in the night, staying hydrated, and avoiding late-night meals can help improve Lumen scores and shift the body into fat-burning mode

BEST MOMENTS

"You're optimising for your body's natural storage and you're using that glycogen for energy rather than for fat stores."

"I think women associate it's workout equals bootcamp. I think we need to start breaking that stigma because I think for a lot of women, especially as we enter menopause and are getting a little bit older, it becomes very important to work on the weight training workouts."

"Weight training is something where women in particular really need to focus. And I think a bit of plyo to help with bone density but not as much as people think."

"I've always thought that you have like an hour, 60-minute window after your workout that if you don't drink a protein shake, all of your gains are going to shrivel up and die."

The Secret Health Crisis: Dr. E Reveals How Mould is Silently Destroying Our Health Jul 29, 2024

Angela and special guest, Dr Efrat LaMandre meet to discuss the importance of functional medicine in addressing health issues that conventional medicine may overlook.

Dr LaMandre shares the personal journey that led her to question traditional medical practices and explore alternative approaches. They delves into topics such as the impact of inflammation on chronic conditions, the role of nutrition in health, and the complexities of mould toxicity. Dr. LaMandre emphasises the individualised nature of health and the need to consider factors like detoxification pathways and genetic predispositions when addressing health concerns.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Mould toxicity can affect individuals differently, with symptoms ranging from respiratory issues to autoimmune conditions, making it challenging to diagnose.
Understanding the body's detoxification process is crucial in addressing mould toxicity, as an overload of toxins can lead to storage in fat cells, impacting overall health.
Genetic predispositions can play a role in how individuals react to mould exposure, with some individuals being more susceptible to certain health issues.
Removing oneself from a mould-infested environment is the first step in addressing mould toxicity, followed by supporting the body's detoxification pathways with targeted supplements.
The impact of mould toxicity on health can vary, with some individuals experiencing systemic issues while others may exhibit specific symptoms related to their genetic makeup and detoxification abilities.

Hashimoto's Thyroiditis, Gluten Sensitivity & Leaky Gut Jul 25, 2024

Angela and special guest, Dr Izabella Wentz discuss the importance of removing gluten from the diet, particularly for individuals with leaky gut, celiac disease, Hashimoto's antibodies, and subclinical hypothyroidism.

Dr Wentz shares her clinical experience and personal journey of eliminating gluten and dairy, leading to significant improvements in symptoms such as brain fog, fatigue, weight gain, and digestive issues.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Removing gluten from the diet can have significant benefits for individuals with celiac disease, Hashimoto's antibodies, and subclinical hypothyroidism.
Even without celiac disease, many individuals with Hashimoto's report feeling better off gluten, experiencing improvements in symptoms like brain fog, fatigue, weight gain, and digestive issues.
Gluten sensitivity may lead to a case of mistaken identity where the body reacts to gluten proteins that cross-react with the thyroid gland, potentially exacerbating thyroid issues.
Addressing underlying issues like a protozoal parasite (such as blastocystis hominis) or supporting the body post-pregnancy with specific supplements like carnitine and alfalfa can lead to improvements in food sensitivities and overall health.

BEST MOMENTS

"So, in some cases, there might be a case of mistaken identity if the body is reacting to the gluten molecule for whatever reason. It may also react to the thyroid gland."

"I was like, wait a minute, And I was like, where did these ads come from like I'm not bloated. And my reflex went away and the carpal tunnel and the IBS and I was like, holy cow”

"I know quite a lot of people that feel gluten sensitive and this would apply to me, they don't really have any gluten unless it's in sourdough bread."

Genius Gut: The Life Changing Science of Eating For Your Second Brain with Dr Emily Leeming Jul 22, 2024

Angela welcomes Dr. Emily Leeming, a research fellow at King's College London, to discuss the fascinating connection between the gut microbiome and brain health.

Dr. Leeming shares insights on the impact of stress on the microbiome, the importance of fibre and diverse foods for gut health, and the role of omega-3 in mental well-being. They also look at topics such as the production of short-chain fatty acids by gut bacteria, the influence of diet on mental health conditions like depression and ADHD, and the potential benefits of post-biotics.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Eating foods rich in fibre and polyphenols, such as fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, can support the gut microbiome and brain health.
Consuming omega-3 fatty acids from sources like oily fish can help prevent cognitive decline and support mental health.
Chronic stress can negatively affect the gut microbiome, leading to inflammation and other health issues.
The impact of artificial sweeteners on the gut microbiome is still being researched, with varying results depending on the type and dose.
The gut microbiome can produce a wide range of metabolites, emphasising the importance of consuming a diverse range of foods to support gut health.

BEST MOMENTS

"So the microbiome really means all the microbes that we're covered in. So we're covered in microbes inside and out."

“That was one of the key things that I took away from the book when I was reading it."

"I think with the research where we know it at the moment in terms of the menopause, with taking soy foods and phytoestrogens is that it's very much on an individual basis."

BITESIZE: Why You MUST Address Adrenal Function FIRST If You Want Your Sex Hormones And Thyroid To Function Properly - with Christa Biegler Jul 18, 2024

Angela presents a biohack episode alongside previous guest, Christa Biegler, delving into the intricate relationship between thyroid health and overall hormonal balance, particularly focusing on the ovarian-adrenal-thyroid axis (OAT axis).

They focus on the critical role of adrenal function in hormone production and stress response, highlighting the impact of cortisol on various bodily functions.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Understanding the ovarian adrenal thyroid axis (OAT axis) is crucial as it involves the production of sex hormones, aldosterone, DHEA, and cortisol, which play vital roles in blood pressure, blood sugar, and stress response.
The adrenal glands are essential for hormone production, especially cortisol, the "darling stress hormone," which affects energy levels, blood flow, and overall organ function.
The thyroid is closely linked to metabolism, with symptoms such as fatigue, hair loss, feeling cold, and mental health issues like depression and anxiety indicating potential thyroid dysfunction.
Pregnancy and postpartum periods can increase the demand for thyroid nutrients, leading to more thyroid-related symptoms like sluggish motility, fungal overgrowth, and dry skin.
Recognising and addressing thyroid symptoms is crucial, as they can impact various bodily systems and functions, highlighting the interconnected nature of hormonal health.

BEST MOMENTS

"If you don't have cortisol, you die. It's the most essential. And so that one is almost at the top of the triangle to me."

"I always think your symptoms matter more than your lab results because there's nothing more frustrating to a woman."

"The top thyroid symptoms, which I did not resonate with, I resonated with different ones."

"When you're pregnant and postpartum, your thyroid needs, the nutrients for the thyroid go up dramatically, of course, right?"

Sex, Hormones and Getting Your Life Back with Karen Martel Jul 15, 2024

Angela welcomes special guest, Karen Martel, to talk about hormones, menopause, and women's health.

Karen and Angela delve into the misconceptions surrounding oestrogen and hormone replacement therapy, emphasising the importance of understanding the benefits of hormone replacement for women's overall health. They also touch on the significance of testosterone and DHEA in women's health, highlighting the potential impact on energy levels, mental health, and sexual well-being.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) can be highly beneficial for women going through perimenopause and menopause, providing relief from symptoms and reducing the risk of various health issues.
It is important for women to understand that experiencing health issues, such as weight gain or migraines, does not necessarily indicate a lack of effort in maintaining health, as human bodies naturally age and may face challenges despite healthy habits.
DHEA supplementation can support adrenal health and energy levels, but it is essential to be cautious with dosages to avoid potential side effects like acne and hair loss.
Women should not feel pressured to address every health issue through natural remedies or emotional healing, as sometimes medication or hormone replacement therapy may be the most effective solution.
It is crucial for individuals to recognise that not all health trends or treatments, such as psychedelics or specific supplements, are suitable for everyone, and personal health decisions should be made based on individual needs and circumstances.

BEST MOMENTS

"Women can find that sex drive is better and sex life is better the older they get."

"I always tell women like, you'll have better orgasms, more satisfactory."

"I did that for like 20 years. I was like, oh, my my freaking dream board isn't good enough."

Bitesize Biohack: Peptides, Bioregulators and Lifestyle Hacks for Longevity with Nathalie Niddam Jul 11, 2024

Angela presents a biohack episode alongside previous guest, Nathalie Niddam, where they discuss various strategies for slowing down the aging process and promoting overall healthspan. They touch on the importance of stress management, quality sleep, nutrition, exercise, and addressing underlying chronic infections and toxins.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Collagen can be beneficial for health, but it's important to maintain a balanced diet with various nutrients to avoid deficiencies.
Bioregulator peptides, such as epitalon, have shown potential in slowing down the aging process by restoring form and function to tissues, glands, and organs.
Fasting and caloric restriction, when done properly, can stimulate autophagy and have been studied for their effectiveness in slowing down aging.
Addressing underlying chronic infections and toxins, such as heavy metals or tick-borne diseases, is crucial for maintaining optimal health and function.
Bioregulator peptides like epitalon are available as nutritional supplements and have been shown to have positive effects on hormone balance, sleep, bone density, and immune function.

BEST MOMENTS

"I get collagen in all kinds of places... I am a fan of collagen, for sure."

"We have to have a mechanism by which we're restoring function to our tissues, glands, and organs as they naturally wear out."

"Epitalon in studies was shown to normalise melatonin production in elderly adults... It was supportive of a whole bunch of foundational aspects of health."

"The bioregulator peptides are essentially epigenetic switches that flip on genes that signal a tissue, gland, or organ to produce proteins that help to restore form and function."

Alzheimer’s is Optional! Patrick Holford on How to Upgrade Your Brain Jul 08, 2024

Angela welcomes Patrick Holford who’s discussing the importance of nourishing and protecting the brain for optimal health and performance.

He delves into the intricate workings of the brain, emphasising the significance of omega-3 DHA, phospholipids, and B vitamins in maintaining brain health. He also highlights the role of homocysteine as a biomarker for various diseases, the impact of B vitamins on methylation, and why he believes the onset of Alzheimers may be something that we can do something about

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The brain is over 60% fat, with omega-3 DHA being a key component that attaches to phospholipids, essential for brain function and structure.
Elevated homocysteine levels are linked to a range of conditions, including neurological disorders, heart disease, and cancer, making it a vital marker to monitor for overall health.
B vitamins play a crucial role in the methylation process, which is necessary for incorporating omega-3 into the brain. Proper methylation is vital for cognitive function and overall brain health.
Understanding how to change behaviours related to diet, lifestyle, and supplementation is crucial for preventing cognitive decline and reducing the risk of various diseases.

BEST MOMENTS

"Your brain currently has to be underperforming because you didn't know what it was that you need to optimally nourish your brain."

"The recommendation for children is to eat fish twice a week. Less than 5% of children achieve even that."

"I can't believe it's ignored. It's never on like a standard doctors or even like a pupil health check."

"The single hardest bit is not finding out what is the problem, which we, of course, will do."

Bitesize: The Benefits and Risks(!) of NAD Jul 04, 2024

Angela welcomes Nichola Conlon to talk about the critical molecule NAD (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) and its importance for the human body.

Nichola provides a comprehensive overview of NAD, highlighting its crucial roles in energy production within cells and as a signaling molecule for cellular maintenance and repair. Angela and Nichola also look into how NAD levels decline with age, impacting energy levels and cellular health, ultimately contributing to the aging process

KEY TAKEAWAYS

NAD, or nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, is a crucial molecule for energy production in cells and acts as a signaling molecule for cellular maintenance and repair.
NAD levels decline with age, starting from birth, and this decline is linked to reduced energy levels and impaired cellular maintenance and repair, contributing to the aging process.
Intermittent fasting, calorie restriction, and exercise are ways to positively impact NAD levels by creating an energy stress that activates the AMPK pathway, leading to increased NAD production.
High-intensity interval training and fasting in a fasted state can further upregulate the AMPK pathway, enhancing the body's ability to produce NAD.
The salvage pathway in cells is responsible for recycling NAD breakdown products, primarily nicotinamide, back into usable NAD. However, this pathway becomes dysregulated with age due to a decline in the enzyme NAMPT, leading to decreased NAD levels in older cells.

BEST MOMENTS

"NAD, I sometimes refer to it as probably the most important molecule that you've never heard of."

"From research that's been done, it seems like it declines from birth. So by the time you're age 20, you've kind of got half the amounts of NAD that you had when you were born."

"I think what's known is that any level of fasting really is going to start to actually increase your NAD levels."

"So all the beneficial effects of exercise, fasting, et cetera, are happening because they're increasing the ability of our cells to use this salvage pathway."

Everything You Need to Know About Birth Control with Kate Muir Jul 01, 2024

Angela welcomes Kate Muir, to discuss her bestselling book, "Everything You Need to Know About the Pill, But We're Too Afraid to Ask."

Kate shares her personal journey and research findings related to the effects of hormonal contraception, particularly focusing on the pill. She delves into the impact of different types of pills on mental health, libido, breast cancer risk, and overall well-being.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The pill can have significant effects on mental health, libido, and overall well-being, with synthetic hormones impacting serotonin levels and mood.
Different types of pills contain varying progestins and oestrogens, leading to different side effects and risks, such as increased breast cancer risk.
Options like the copper coil and natural cycles provide non-hormonal alternatives, with potential benefits for mood and overall health.
Body-identical pills with natural oestrogen and safer progestins show promise in reducing side effects and improving mood.
Trials for male contraception, such as a shoulder gel, show potential with minimal side effects, offering a new perspective on shared contraceptive responsibility.

BEST MOMENTS

"I think the pill had sort of ground her down. And when she came off it, she was great. You know, there are other issues in people's lives, but that was clearly a cause of her low mood and depression, real flat mood."

“Despite me having been diagnosed with three bouts of postnatal depression and then major depressive disorder for a number of years with possible bipolar, their first instinct was, well, we just need to get you back on the pill."

“Doctors are really not trained in hormones at all"

“We did a big poll for Channel 4. And I think we found about something like, 7 to 14% were getting it for sort of acne or skin. And lots and lots of people were going on it for heavy periods or irregular periods."

Bitesize: Why Blood Sugar Matters for Energy, Health & Longevity Jun 27, 2024

Angela talks to special guest Danielle Hamilton, about the critical importance of blood glucose regulation for overall health and well-being. They discuss how blood sugar levels impact every cell, organ, and bodily process, emphasising the far-reaching effects of blood sugar dysregulation and insulin resistance.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Blood glucose levels have a significant impact on our overall health, affecting every cell, organ, and process in the body.
Insulin resistance and blood sugar dysregulation can lead to various health issues, even before blood sugar levels change.
Many individuals may have metabolic dysfunction and insulin resistance without being diagnosed with prediabetes or diabetes.
Doctors may not always catch early signs of blood sugar issues, focusing more on treating symptoms rather than addressing root causes.
Circadian rhythm and stress play a crucial role in blood glucose levels, emphasizing the importance of timing for optimal health and performance

BEST MOMENTS

"Our blood sugar affects how we feel at every second of every day, and it has huge impacts on our long-term health."

"I think it's the same here. So with somebody, let's say they're falling, because most people listening to this podcast are looking after their health..."

Focus on getting quality sleep rather than just quantity, ensuring you wake up feeling refreshed.
Practices like sun exposure in the morning can aid in regulating circadian rhythms.
Consider bio-identical hormone replacement therapy, especially for women experiencing hormonal imbalances during menopause, to support brain health and overall well-being.

Bitesize: How to Optimise Light and Sleep in Summer Jun 20, 2024

Angela is joined by Mollie Eastman to talk about the importance of aligning our circadian rhythms with our environment and the impact it has on our health. They discuss the seasonal and geographical factors that influence our sleep patterns, referencing health geography and conditions like MS, and explore the concept of "sleep capital" and "social capital" as a way to balance prioritising sleep while also maintaining social connections

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Our bodies are not designed to follow the same circadian alignment throughout the year.
Factors like geographical location and seasonal changes play a significant role in determining our optimal sleep patterns.
Where we choose to reside can have a direct impact on our health and well-being. For example, rates of certain diseases like MS are higher in northern latitude locations compared to closer to the equator locations, possibly due to reduced sunlight exposure and vitamin D connection.
Balancing social interactions and prioritising sleep is crucial. The concept of managing "sleep capital" most of the time but occasionally investing in "social capital" highlights the importance of maintaining a healthy social life while still prioritizing sleep.
Designing an environment conducive to good sleep is essential. This includes ensuring a dark bedroom, minimising exposure to blue light, and creating a relaxing pre-sleep routine to promote the production of melatonin.

BEST MOMENTS

"Our bodies are not designed like that. There are a seasonal nature, but also where we fall geographically on the globe really, really matters."

“An anthropologist anthropologist studied the Hudson tribe and would find, you know, kind of how sleep had been managed in hunter-gatherer tribes."

"So, that might be the time where it's the wedding of the close friend, and you're going to be staying up much later, or friends are going to be coming over and staying with you, so your sleep is going to be a little bit funky during that period."

The Neuroscience of a Healthy Brain & Why You Dream with Dr Rahul Jandial Jun 17, 2024

Angela interviews Dr. Rahul Jandial about the fascinating topic of dreaming from a scientific perspective.

Dr. Jandial, a brain surgeon and neuroscientist, delves into the intricate workings of the brain during sleep and dreaming, exploring the connection between waking life experiences and dream content, and highlighting the importance of understanding the brain's transition between executive and imagination networks.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The brain needs to dream to stay fine-tuned, imaginative, and maximally adaptive.
It is not just a glitch but a necessary process for the brain to function at its best.
The transitional states of sleep exit and sleep entry are fascinating liminal zones where the brain toggles between executive network function and imaginative network function.
These states can be rich with creative ideas and solutions.
Techniques for inducing lucid dreaming, such as waking up an hour before the usual time and then trying to fall back asleep while maintaining awareness, can increase the chances of experiencing lucid dreams.
Engaging in divergent thinking, which involves creative and imaginative ideation, can lead to fresh ideas and solutions.
This type of thinking is essential for creativity and problem-solving.

BEST MOMENTS

"I believe at some fundamental level that we sleep because we must dream. And that that's the essential feature of the human brain that's taking place during a period we call sleep."

"It's really interesting what you say about divergent focus and just like how you can become more creative and things and tap into that."

"I see dreaming as more of a high-intensity training for the brain, engaging all these different emotions and recesses that wouldn't happen with the routines of our day."

“It’s not physically that we get forced to sleep, the brain will force us to sleep."

Just One Thing: In Memory of Dr Michael Mosley Jun 13, 2024

In honour of the passing of Dr Michael Mosley, Angela invites you to take a step back in time, to the episode upon which she was joined by Dr Mosley, to discuss his new book, the methods he used to boost brain and BDNF levels, how to remain at optimal health at all times, and and which predictors matter in terms of health.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

People's metabolisms are struggling today far more than ever before, largely due to the increase in junk food and processed foods we are seeing on the marketplace.
Squats can be used as a helpful way to boost your brain and BDNF levels, because of the increase in blood flow caused by this.
The three things you really need to crack in order to remain at optimal health are healthy weight, mindfulness, and exercise. Exercise is truly essential as it helps to optimise muscle mass.
The two greatest predictors of life expectancy are your insulin sensitivity, and the amount of oxygen you can burn when you're really pushing yourself during exercises that test your maximum limits.

BEST MOMENTS

'Unfortunately these kinds of foods are quite alien to us'

'After the age of 30, you will lose up to 10% of muscle mass every decade'

'He's demonstrated cognitive improvement in people who do these particular exercises'

'Make the most of the cold winter!'

Dark Calories - Addressing the Root Cause of Oxidative Stress, Cardiovascular Disease and Inflammation with Cate Shanahan, MD Jun 10, 2024

Angela talks to Dr. Cate Shanahan about her book "Dark Calories" and the misconceptions surrounding cholesterol, heart health, and the impact of vegetable oils on the body.

Dr. Shanahan emphasises the role of oxidative stress as the root cause of various health issues and explains how vegetable oils contribute to this stress. She delves into the importance of understanding the chemistry behind nutrition, debunking myths about protein consumption, animal products, and the inflammatory effects of dairy

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Oxidative stress is the root cause of many health issues, including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and dementia.
It is essential to focus on reducing oxidative stress by avoiding vegetable oils and consuming foods rich in antioxidants.
Dr. Shanahan highlights the harmful effects of vegetable oils, particularly seed oils like corn, canola, cottonseed, soy, sunflower, safflower, rice bran, and grapeseed oil.
These oils are highly processed, lack nutrition, and can deteriorate into toxins, promoting oxidative stress in the body.
It’s vital to understand the link between cholesterol phobia and the rise of vegetable oils in the food supply.
Animal protein does not cause oxidative stress and is essential for building blocks like amino acids needed for various bodily functions.
A balanced intake of animal protein is beneficial and does not inherently lead to inflammation or oxidative stress.

BEST MOMENTS

"The root cause is this state of chemical imbalance called oxidative stress. Oxidative stress is the thing that kills us all."

"People get really, really confused that they don't seem to have a higher protein diet, that it was kind of occasional and this idea that ancestrally we wouldn't have had access and we would have been foraging and occasionally we would have killed an animal."

"The key mistake in what has been envisioned so far is they've decided that LDL particles are just bad and that LDL should not be in our bloodstream."

“Protein does not cause oxidative stress. Now, an imbalance might, like if we're eating so much protein that we don't get other nutrients."

Bitesize: How to Heal and Build Your Relationship With Yourself With Roxanne Saffaie Jun 06, 2024

Angela is joined by Roxanne Saffaie to discuss the concept of self-mastery and the journey towards understanding and developing a deep, loving relationship with one's authentic self. The conversation highlights the importance of investing time and energy in cultivating this relationship, emphasising the need to break free from societal programming and connect with one's internal voice

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Self-mastery is a lifelong journey focused on knowing and developing a loving relationship with one's authentic self.
Developing a relationship with oneself is crucial to understanding and overcoming external programming and societal influences.
Journaling is a powerful tool for self-reflection and self-discovery, serving as a portal to one's highest self.
Operating from a place of self-compassion and curiosity rather than self-judgment is essential for personal growth and empowerment.

BEST MOMENTS

"Detoxification is so important now more than ever with the number of toxins we are exposed to daily in our food, water, personal care products and environment."

"I think it's very arrogant for any one of us to think that we just came out and we're supposed to know everything, how to do everything right, how to be perfect, how to do, but for some reason, especially women, there is this hardcore judgment about how we're supposed to just be hitting the mark every single time."

"All we've ever been taught to do is go out there out there out meaning outside of us every answer that you need to create your quote unquote great successful life. You gotta go out there to get it. And I call bullshit on that."

Reprogram Your Mind, Heal Trauma and Free Yourself From Limiting Beliefs with Mike Zeller Jun 03, 2024

Angela is joined by Mike Zeller, who shares his powerful journey of combining biohacking, neurohacking, and peak performance coaching.

Mike talks frankly about his personal experiences with trauma, peak performance psychology, and the transformative impact of psychedelics and NAD therapy on his wife's mental health. He discusses the importance of clearing out limiting beliefs and trauma to pave the way for manifesting desired outcomes

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Feeling the emotions associated with the desired outcome is crucial for effective manifestation.
Connecting with the heart and embodying the feeling of the wish fulfilled enhances the manifestation process.
Aligning actions with the feelings associated with the desired outcome creates internal momentum and reinforces the manifestation process.
Visualisation, coupled with action, such as imagining oneself in the desired scenario or engaging in activities related to the goal, helps reinforce the manifestation process.
Integrating new beliefs and feelings into daily routines, such as through affirmations and visualisation, helps reinforce the manifestation process and align actions with desired outcomes.

BEST MOMENTS

"I am becoming, or I am growing, something along those lines is going to give you that special caveat word."

"I struggled feeling things. I was a dude, I was like, I was a walking brain. My wife was a walking heart, I was a walking brain."

"There are some people who feel it harder to connect."

They delve into the scientific definition of flow, highlighting its characteristics such as complete concentration, the merging of action and awareness, and the vanishing of self.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Flow is defined as an optimal state of consciousness where individuals feel and perform their best.
Flow is characterised by complete concentration, the merger of action and awareness, the vanishing of self, time distortion, a sense of control, and an autotelic experience.
Flow leads to significant increases in productivity, creativity, empathy, wisdom, physical performance, happiness, well-being, and overall life satisfaction.
The six core characteristics of flow include complete concentration, the merger of action and awareness, the vanishing of self, time distortion, a sense of control, and an autotelic experience.

BEST MOMENTS

"Flow, scientifically, if we're defining it, technically, it's an optimal state of consciousness where we feel our best and we perform our best."

"On average, it was 500% more productive. That's a giant, extraordinary thing."

"When I'm at my best, I'm in this altered state of consciousness where every decision, every action flows seamlessly, perfectly, effortlessly from the last."

Bitesize: How to Reinvent Yourself with John R Miles May 23, 2024

Angela talks to John R Miles about the theme of rising above self-doubt and reinventing oneself in a rapidly changing world.

They emphasise the importance of authentic living and breaking away from societal norms to author one's own fulfilling life story, highlighting the staggering statistics on unfulfilled individuals globally and the impending automation of jobs, urging listeners to awaken to the evolving landscape.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Embrace the quest for authentic living and rebel against societal norms to define your own standards for a fulfilling life.
With automation on the rise, individuals should focus on their uniqueness and consider paths like entrepreneurship or freelancing to navigate the changing job landscape.
The current education system may not adequately prepare the next generation for the evolving world, emphasizing the importance of developing anti-fragility and passion-driven mindsets.
Novak Djokovic's relentless pursuit of personal mastery and mental toughness serves as a prime example of shaping one's life to mirror inner values and aspirations.

BEST MOMENTS

"It's about a rebellion against the societal norms that seem to dictate our lives. It's a refusal to settle for a life that's defined by someone else's standards instead of defining them for yourself."

"I think more and more people are going to end up having to become maybe a solo entrepreneur, a solopreneur where instead of working for these corporations or what have you, you're going to become a freelancer."

"I think for many people, what I notice is the aspect you talk about there in terms of where we might need to reinvent ourselves, but also as a mother of teenage children, I feel like the education system isn't guiding them particularly well."

Dr Sara Gottfried (Part 2): Trauma, Autoimmunity & Inner Healing May 20, 2024

In the second part of a very special two-part conversation, Angela talks once more to the remarkable Dr Sara Gottfried, an expert in hormones and autoimmunity, about the alarming rise in autoimmune conditions, particularly among women and adolescents.

Dr. Sara delves into the connection between trauma, stress, and the development of autoimmune diseases, shedding light on the impact of unresolved stress responses on the body's immune, neurological, and endocrine systems. The conversation also explores the role of self-love, psychedelics like MDMA and psilocybin, and ketamine in treating mental health issues and trauma-related conditions

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The prevalence of autoimmunity is high, with one in three individuals having an autoimmune condition
Rates of autoimmunity are escalating, especially in men and adolescents, with a significant number showing antibodies against their own cells.
While women are traditionally more vulnerable to autoimmune diseases, recent observations suggest an increase in anti-nuclear antibodies in men, indicating a shift in susceptibility.
Trauma, especially in women who experience more trauma than men, is a significant trigger for autoimmunity, with unresolved stress responses contributing to dysregulation.
Psychedelic-assisted therapy, including substances like MDMA and psilocybin, shows promise in addressing trauma, depression, and autoimmune conditions, offering a new approach to mental health treatment.

BEST MOMENTS

"We think that there's differences in terms of gender, those are sex-based differences, but there's also gender-based differences."

"It's a more generally feminine approach to a stress response. Now, if you take those who are born male who do more fight flight, they are using big muscle groups to fight, or to run, and there's a way that that mobilizes the stress response and helps them recover fast."

"It's really fundamental. Yeah, you know, if you do an adverse childhood experiences score, if you do the ACE questionnaire, there's a lot of things that aren't asked in that questionnaire”

"And MDMA opens you up to more kind of like love experiences, experiences of love, right? And joy."

Dr Sara Gottfried - https://www.saragottfriedmd.com/

ABOUT THE GUEST

Sara Gottfried MD, is a scientist, researcher, Harvard – educated medical doctor with 25 years of experience, and author of four New York Times bestselling books.

Through her practise, Dr Gottfried treats people with a host of conditions, and educates about hormone balance, metabolic health and the interaction between food and your metabolism.

From the Harvard and MIT-educated physician, and New York Times bestselling author of The Hormone Cure, The Hormone Reset Diet and Younger, comes a brand new book on the impact of trauma on your body and immune system – and what you can do to heal.

Up to 80 per cent of patients with autoimmune disease experienced significant emotional distress before getting sick. In other words, trauma and autoimmune disease are intimately linked, and Dr Gottfried shows us how.

A leading voice in the autoimmune and women’s health space, Dr Gottfried’s insights into the gut, women’s health and hormones, and trauma as it pertains to autoimmune illness is essential reading

Conventional medicine falls short when it comes to both diagnosing and treating autoimmune disease. Many people suffer from mysterious symptoms like severe fatigue, brain fog, aches and pains, feelings of tingling and numbness, stubborn weight gain, abdominal pain, digestive problems, hair loss, insomnia, and even anxiety, and don't realize their immune system is at the root of their symptoms. In her precision medicine practice, Dr Gottfried noticed a seemingly unusual pattern: many of her patients who suffer from autoimmune disease and symptoms have a history of trauma. Dr Gottfried has created a powerful programme designed to break the vicious cycle of autoimmune disease, reset your immune system and restore your health, with advice on diet, sleep, supplements, breathwork, microbiome restoration, somatic therapy and much more.

Bitesize: Hormone Doctor Milli Raizada On How To Harmonize Your Hormones in Perimenopause & Beyond May 16, 2024

Angela talks to Milli Raizada, an experienced NHS GP who has personally navigated hormonal challenges, about the key aspects that women in their 40s and early 50s should focus on to optimise their health.

Dr. Raizada discusses the fluctuations in hormones during the perimenopause phase, emphasising the impact on various bodily functions such as brain health, muscle health, and bone health. She also highlights the importance of understanding hormone levels, particularly oestrogen, and its influence on neurotransmitters like dopamine and serotonin

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Understanding the hormonal changes during perimenopause is crucial for women in their 40s and early 50s.
Declining oestrogen levels can lead to various symptoms like weight gain, brain fog, and mood changes due to its influence on neurotransmitters.
Nutrition plays a vital role in managing hormonal health, with a focus on unprocessed whole foods, probiotics, and prebiotics for gut health.
Tailoring exercise routines to include strength training and moderate-intensity activities can help maintain muscle mass and overall health during perimenopause.
Empowering individuals with knowledge about their bodies and personalized lifestyle plans can help manage hormonal issues effectively without relying solely on medication.

BEST MOMENTS

"Eating foods that are naturally lower in carbohydrates... eating unprocessed natural carbohydrates, fruits and vegetables and everything in moderation is so important."

"I think it's looking at when we know that in our 30s muscle and bone health decline with age you know you get sarcopenia you get loss of bone density."

"I had a problem with chronic pain and the consultant offered me some morphine and I just thought, you're putting the plaster on the issue here. I really do want to know what's causing the problem."

Neuroscience: Upgrade and Protect Your Brain with Dr Tommy Wood May 13, 2024

Angela is joined by neuroscience expert, Dr. Tommy Wood, who shares insights on building a better brain and optimising cognitive function across the lifespan.

He discusses the importance of exercise on brain health, the impact of different types of exercise on cognitive function, and the benefits of separating tasks to maximise productivity. They also look into the concept of cognitive gears, the effects of multitasking, and the significance of incorporating low cognitive gear activities to unwind before bedtime.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

We need to emphasise the importance of structuring the workday to optimise productivity by chunking tasks based on cognitive gears and personal energy rhythms.
Multitasking, especially when it involves complex tasks, can be detrimental to cognitive performance and learning. Focusing on one task at a time is more effective for deep work and skill acquisition.
Engaging in low cognitive gear activities, such as repetitive tasks or household chores, can provide a cognitive break and recharge the brain.
Prioritising deep work in the morning when energy levels are high and saving less demanding tasks for later in the day can enhance overall productivity.
Maintaining a balance between focused work, breaks, and low cognitive gear activities throughout the day can help optimise cognitive function and prevent burnout.

BEST MOMENTS

"I think there's a few different ways to think about this”

“One measure that I really like is the cognitive gears, which is something that a former colleague of mine, James Hewitt, has kind of popularised. He puts us into three main brain states or cognitive gears and actually relates them to exercise."

"I can imagine at that point, right, you're unplugging, you're going to spend time with your partner. If you then go back to work, that's going to create a whole new buzz of energy."

"The kind of multitasking that humans are very good at is parallel processing multiple complex related skills at the same time."

Bitesize: Break Free of Limiting Beliefs & Rewire Your Mind for Success with Paul Sheppard May 09, 2024

Angela is joined for this bitesize edition by Paul Sheppard, to discuss how conditioning from past experiences can limit individuals from achieving success and how some may self-sabotage when they reach a certain level of achievement.

Paul and Angela touch on the idea that conditioning often occurs in early childhood but can also manifest later in life, impacting relationships and overall well-being

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Many people are held back by conditioning from their past that limits their beliefs about what they can achieve or deserve.
Some individuals reach a certain level of success and then unconsciously sabotage themselves, possibly due to deep-rooted conditioning.
Conditioning can occur during childhood, particularly before the age of seven, but can also develop later in life through experiences like relationships with narcissists.
Coaching is favoured for addressing anxiety as it focuses on proactive steps to move forward rather than solely delving into past issues

BEST MOMENTS

"You know, it's usually conditioning from their past that says you can't achieve something. You're not allowed to have something."

"I think it's important to have a coach or a therapist to explore not only where these things have come from, which is nice."

"When I had anxiety, there was no help or no advice that would have helped me with my anxiety."

Dr Sara Gottfried: Optimising Female Hormone Health Pre & Post Menopause May 06, 2024

In the first part of a very special two-part conversation, Angela talks to the remarkable Dr Sara Gottfried, about a wide-ranging array of aspects impacting women's health, including hormones, perimenopause, and postpartum depression.

Dr. Sara highlights the impact of hormonal changes during perimenopause and menopause, emphasising the importance of understanding triggers and dysregulation. She also delves into the effects of stress, immune system changes, and metabolic shifts during this transition. The conversation touches on topics like mitochondrial function, hormone therapy, PCOS, and postpartum depression, exploring both biological and environmental factors that contribute to women's health challenges.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Hormonal fluctuations during perimenopause and postpartum can lead to various symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, mood changes, and depression.
Understanding these changes and seeking support can help manage these transitions effectively.
Monitoring mitochondrial function, especially in women over 40, can help address issues like fatigue and energy depletion.
Strategies like interval training and red light therapy can help stimulate mitochondria and improve energy levels.
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a complex condition with various phenotypes and metabolic implications.
Understanding individual symptoms and addressing them through lifestyle changes, exercise, and proper nutrition can help manage PCOS effectively.
Postpartum depression can be influenced by hormonal changes, lack of support, sleep deprivation, and psychological stress.
Identifying risk factors like genetic predispositions, inflammation, and nutrient deficiencies can help in early intervention and management.

BEST MOMENTS

"I think the pandemic definitely changed our biology, mostly, not for the better."

"I feel like perimenopause and menopause needs to be rebranded. We need to be a lot more honest about some of these changes that are happening."

"I think it's really important to understand that postpartum thyroiditis, development of autoimmunity is really common."

Dr Sara Gottfried - https://www.saragottfriedmd.com/

ABOUT THE GUEST

Sara Gottfried MD, is a scientist, researcher, Harvard – educated medical doctor with 25 years of experience, and author of four New York Times bestselling books.

Through her practise, Dr Gottfried treats people with a host of conditions, and educates about hormone balance, metabolic health and the interaction between food and your metabolism.

From the Harvard and MIT-educated physician, and New York Times bestselling author of The Hormone Cure, The Hormone Reset Diet and Younger, comes a brand new book on the impact of trauma on your body and immune system – and what you can do to heal.

Up to 80 per cent of patients with autoimmune disease experienced significant emotional distress before getting sick. In other words, trauma and autoimmune disease are intimately linked, and Dr Gottfried shows us how.

A leading voice in the autoimmune and women’s health space, Dr Gottfried’s insights into the gut, women’s health and hormones, and trauma as it pertains to autoimmune illness is essential reading

Conventional medicine falls short when it comes to both diagnosing and treating autoimmune disease. Many people suffer from mysterious symptoms like severe fatigue, brain fog, aches and pains, feelings of tingling and numbness, stubborn weight gain, abdominal pain, digestive problems, hair loss, insomnia, and even anxiety, and don't realize their immune system is at the root of their symptoms. In her precision medicine practice, Dr Gottfried noticed a seemingly unusual pattern: many of her patients who suffer from autoimmune disease and symptoms have a history of trauma. Dr Gottfried has created a powerful programme designed to break the vicious cycle of autoimmune disease, reset your immune system and restore your health, with advice on diet, sleep, supplements, breathwork, microbiome restoration, somatic therapy and much more.

Bitesize: Signs of Burnout & How to Prevent It With Dr Molly Maloof May 02, 2024

Angela is joined by Dr Molly Maloof to discuss burnout and its impact on energy metabolism. This bitesize edition looks into the ways in which we can recognise the signs of burnout, the importance of understanding cortisol levels through testing, and the role of blood sugar regulation in managing burnout.

Angela and Dr Molly stress the need for individuals, especially women, to prioritise rest and lifestyle changes when experiencing burnout, rather than relying solely on diet modifications

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Look out for fluctuating blood sugar levels, low energy, and issues with hormone regulation as potential signs of burnout.
Before addressing stress, get hormones tested, assess blood sugar regulation, and evaluate overall physiological function to understand what's happening inside the body.
Rest is fundamental to healing from burnout. Slowing down, getting adequate sleep, and prioritizing rest are crucial steps in the recovery process.
Eliminate processed and fast foods from the diet to reduce brain fog, inflammation, metabolic inflexibility, and gut dysfunction, which can exacerbate burnout symptoms.

BEST MOMENTS

"You know, it's funny, when I was writing this book, I had a little bit of a freak out because my editors were like, women who are burned out are going to buy this book."

"What they're doing is they're forcing their body to pump out more cortisol the best it can but eventually it's going to just flatline."

"It's really high when you're in an insulin resistant state. But when you're fully burned out and you're like I can't get out of bed in the morning because I'm so exhausted."

A Better Second Half: How to Live a Longer, Healthier Happier Life with Liz Earle Apr 29, 2024

Angela is joined by the incredible Liz Earle, an expert in empowering midlife women to be stronger and better than ever. Liz discusses the challenges faced by women in midlife, the importance of self-care, and the need to prioritise oneself.

They delve into the significance of hormones, skin care, and biohacking for aging well, plus Liz shares her insights on supplements, skin care routines, and the use of red light therapy for overall health and well-being.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Start by prioritising yourself, especially during midlife when facing various challenges. Taking care of yourself is essential for overall well-being.
Incorporate small health habits that stack together to have a big impact on your health.
Focus on simple and easy practices that can make a difference at any age.
Understand the importance of hormones, especially oestrogen, in skin health and overall well-being.
Consider hormone replacement therapy if needed.
Focus on a high-protein diet with healthy fats for internal skincare.
For external skincare, consider ingredients like retinol, vitamin C serums, and collagen supplements.
for better education on menopause, hormonal health, and women's health in medical schools and among healthcare professionals to ensure proper care and treatment options are available.

BEST MOMENTS

"I think the key is to start with yourself. You have to prioritise you. You have to make a commitment right at the beginning that you are worth it."

"I think it's all about trying to get your body to work in a better, younger way for you. So rather than try and impose something else on your skin or your body and force it into doing something, I think to give it the tools to do it for itself is a more successful option."

"Using collagen to support bones and joint health, I think is really useful. And I also add things like powdered bone broth to my coffee and shakes and yogurt and soup and anything."

Bitesize Biohack: Why Self Care is The Secret To Boosting Metabolism & Weight Loss with Dr Libby Weaver Apr 25, 2024

Angela is joined by Dr Libby Weaver to discuss the complex relationship between women's bodies and achieving the ideal body composition. Drawing from personal experiences and observations with patients, they challenge the traditional belief that calorie restriction and intense exercise are the only factors influencing body shape and size. The discussion highlights the impact of stress hormones, particularly adrenaline, on the body's ability to burn fat and store fat

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The traditional belief that the calorie equation is the sole factor influencing body shape and size is challenged by real-life experiences where calorie restriction does not always lead to weight loss.
The idea that intense exercise is necessary to maintain weight or body shape can be deeply ingrained, leading individuals to over-exercise unnecessarily.
Elevated adrenaline levels due to psychological stress, rather than physical danger, can disrupt the body's natural processes, affecting digestion, fuel utilisation, and food cravings.
Modern lifestyles with constant stressors can lead to chronically elevated adrenaline levels, impacting the body's ability to use fat as fuel and increasing cravings for sugary foods.

BEST MOMENTS

"You meet people who are very good at restricting calories and they still don't lose any body fat, they don't lose weight. In fact, sometimes it goes in the opposite direction."

"I ran like that because it was so ingrained in me in my education that you had to exercise intensely to maintain the way that you are, to basically be able to eat."

"So many women still think like that. And it breaks my heart because they live in this world of, I feel like I've got to eat like a tiny little bird and I've got to exercise like a maniac."

"And it's our perceptions of pressure and urgency and it's the way we unconsciously worry about maintaining the approval of others. So in other words, it's caffeine and primarily psychological stress rather than a threat to our life."

The World’s Fastest Growing Fitness Coach: How to Boost Total Calorie Burn for 48 Hours in Just 10 Minutes a Day, Get Lean (Not Bulky) & Look and Feel Your Best with Vince Sant Apr 22, 2024

Angela is joined by Vince Sant, the world’s fastest growing fitness coach and viral sensation, to talk about optimising metabolic health and achieving ideal physical shape, especially with the upcoming spring and summer seasons.

Vince shares insights on overcoming obstacles in body re-composition, understanding different body types, setting realistic fitness goals, and the importance of tailored approaches to diet and exercise, as well as delving into the significance of cardio training, including various forms like steady-state, low-intensity, and HIIT workouts.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Tailoring fitness routines and diet plans to individual goals, body types, and lifestyles is crucial for long-term success.
Understanding body types (ectomorph, endomorph, mesomorph) can help in choosing the right training and diet strategies for optimal results.
Different forms of cardio (steady-state, low-intensity, HIIT) offer varied benefits, and selecting the one that aligns with personal preferences and schedules is key.
Consider incorporating essential amino acids, caffeine, and electrolytes like salt for improved workout performance and recovery.
Consistent adherence to a workout routine that is enjoyable and fits into one's lifestyle is more important than following a rigid plan that may not be sustainable.

BEST MOMENTS

"I think enjoyment trumps all”

“I lift heavy weights. I like going midday. I like getting two or three meals a week."

"BCAAs are a phenomenal option. BCAAs are essential, they have your essential amino acids in them."

"I was in pretty terrible shape, to be honest. My lifting had consisted mostly of bodybuilding style exercises, which I do blood work every six months”

Bitesize Biohack: Is Sunscreen Safe? The Effect of Diet On Sun Damage & The Little Known Collagen Destroyer in Your Home with Dr Rachel Varga Apr 18, 2024

Angela is joined by Rachel Varga to talk about the importance of skincare, sun protection, and biohacking for optimal health and wellness. They focus on the significance of wearing mineral sunscreen daily, especially due to the deeper penetration of blue light from screens into the skin.

They also talk about the use of pregnancy-safe and kid-safe products free of harmful toxins, such as parabens and sulfates, exploring the role of peptides, specifically Melanotan-2, in enhancing melanin production, anti-aging benefits, and libido enhancement

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Avoid products with chemical sunscreens like avobenzone or oxybenzone.
Opt for mineral sunscreens with zinc or titanium as active ingredients to protect hormone production.
Look for products free of parabens, phthalates, sulfates, artificial dyes, and fragrances to ensure safety for both adults and children.
Consider Melanotan-2 for tanning: This peptide can help increase melanin production, providing a tan without the need for self-tanners, while also offering other benefits like libido enhancement and appetite suppression.
Be cautious with new rejuvenation options: Wait for products like peptides and stem cells to be well-studied and established in the market before considering them for anti-aging or aesthetic purposes.

BEST MOMENTS

"The blue light coming from your devices and screens is actually penetrating 100 nanometers deeper into the skin than the naturally occurring UVA and UVB rays."

"I'm a big fan of using pregnancy safe, kid safe products for hair care, cleaning, and personal care, free of toxins like parabens, phthalates, and sulfates”

"I do not fear the sun but ensure I have great products on my face, neck, chest, hands, and take hyper-focused antioxidants and supplements for internal defence."

How Veganism Can Help You Lose Weight, Boost Metabolic Health and Live Longer with Dr Neal Barnard Apr 15, 2024

Angela is joined by Dr. Neil Barnard to discuss the benefits of a plant-based diet, particularly focusing on the health implications of avoiding meat and dairy products.

Dr. Barnard explains how fibre, found in plant-based foods, plays a crucial role in reducing cholesterol levels and aiding in weight loss. He emphasises the importance of essential amino acids from plant sources over animal protein for overall health.

Angela and Dr Barnard also delve into the impact of saturated fats on cholesterol levels and the link between animal products and diseases like Alzheimer's

KEY TAKEAWAYS

A plant-based diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and beans has been shown to promote weight loss effectively.
Foods like blueberries, cruciferous vegetables, green leafy vegetables, melons, citrus fruits, and beans are particularly beneficial for weight management.
Saturated fat intake, primarily from animal products like dairy and meat, has been linked to an increased risk of health issues such as Alzheimer's disease.
Avoiding saturated fats and focusing on plant-based sources of essential nutrients can significantly improve overall health.
Insulin resistance, often caused by the accumulation of fat particles in muscle cells, can lead to persistent high blood sugar levels.
Eliminating animal products and reducing added oils from the diet can help improve insulin sensitivity and regulate blood sugar levels effectively.
A balanced plant-based diet with fats comprising less than 10% of total calories, complex carbohydrates as the main energy source, and adequate protein intake can support overall health and weight management without the need for strict calorie counting or macronutrient tracking.

BEST MOMENTS

"The protein in meat is inferior to plant protein."

"The Mediterranean people were annoyed. They thought, I signed up for a research study, and I'm supposed to lose weight, and I'm not losing."

"The answer to that is not to avoid healthy foods. The answer to that is to get the fat out of your cells."

"Your body is designed to use glucose as its favourite fuel."

ABOUT THE GUEST

Dr. Barnard has led numerous research studies investigating the effects of diet on diabetes, body weight, hormonal symptoms, and chronic pain, including a groundbreaking study of dietary interventions in type 2 diabetes, funded by the National Institutes of Health, that paved the way for viewing type 2 diabetes as a potentially reversible condition for many patients. Dr. Barnard has authored more than 100 scientific publications and 20 books for medical and lay readers, and is the editor in chief of the Nutrition Guide for Clinicians, a textbook made available to all U.S. medical students.

As president of the Physicians Committee, Dr. Barnard leads programs advocating for preventive medicine, good nutrition, and higher ethical standards in research.

In 2016, he founded the Barnard Medical Center in Washington, DC, as a model for making nutrition a routine part of all medical care.

Working with the Medical Society of the District of Columbia and the American Medical Association, Dr. Barnard has authored key resolutions, now part of AMA policy, calling for a new focus on prevention and nutrition in federal policies and in medical practice. In 2018, he received the Medical Society of the District of Columbia’s Distinguished Service Award. He has hosted four PBS television programs on nutrition and health.

Originally from Fargo, North Dakota, Dr. Barnard received his M.D. degree at the George Washington University School of Medicine and completed his residency at the same institution. He practiced at St. Vincent’s Hospital in New York before returning to Washington to found the Physicians Committee.

Bitesize: Biohacks to Boost Adrenal Function & Ditch Burnout Apr 11, 2024

Angela presents a bitesize biohack alongside Dr Izabella Wentz, where the focus is on fixing adrenal protocols and addressing stressors that impact the body's response to stress. The discussion delves into various factors such as sleep deprivation, psychological stress, history of traumas, nutritional stressors, and the importance of pleasurable activities in reducing stress levels

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Sleep deprivation, psychological stress, history of traumas, nutritional stressors, and excessive exercise can all send danger signals to the body and contribute to adrenal dysfunction.
Ensuring blood sugar balance, consuming adequate protein and fat, replenishing depleted nutrients like B vitamins and magnesium, and incorporating mitochondrial support can help in restoring adrenal health.
individuals experiencing adrenal burnout, longer fasts, extreme exercise, and other high-stress activities may exacerbate symptoms rather than improve them. It's essential to listen to the body and prioritize gentle, nourishing practices.
Engaging in activities that bring joy and relaxation, such as spending time in nature or pursuing hobbies for enjoyment rather than profit, can help shift the body from a stress response to a thriving state.

BEST MOMENTS

"Fasting can be healthy for a lot of people if they're healthy enough to fast, but when you're in a really depleted state, fasting can actually send your metabolism further from what you want it to be."

"I see a lot of improvements in deep sleep. Deep restorative sleep and REM sleep are some of the improvements that we start seeing when the body gets into this state where we start healing in our sleep."

"I think we've kind of been conditioned over the last few years as women that we've got to be doing these super high-profile jobs and fasting for like 16 to 24 hours a day or even three-day water-only fasts."

Bitesize: The Truth About Supplements for Women with Dr Stacy Sims Mar 29, 2024

Angela presents a bitesize biohack alongside Stacy Sims, in which they highlight the benefits of blackcurrant juice concentrate for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, particularly in alleviating PMS symptoms. They also touch upon the importance of vitamin D supplementation, especially in regions with limited sunlight during winter, emphasising its role in mood, immunity, and overall health

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Blackcurrant juice concentrate is beneficial for women with PMS or inflammation issues due to its anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative properties.
Supplementing with blackcurrant juice concentrate can help enhance total recovery and alleviate symptoms of bloating, cramping, and mood changes associated with PMS or PPMD.
Vitamin D is crucial for mood, immunity, iron status, muscle function, gut health, and brain health, especially in regions with limited sunlight exposure.
It is recommended to consume around 20ml of blackcurrant juice concentrate or tart cherry juice concentrate for their anti-inflammatory benefits.
Regular monitoring of vitamin D levels through blood tests is essential, and supplementing with at least 2000 international units every other day may be necessary, particularly during darker winter months to combat deficiencies and improve overall health.

BEST MOMENTS

"Blackcurrant juice concentrate is really more of a real food way. It's considered a supplement, but when you're looking at all the supplements that are out there, a juice concentrate is closer to the real food spectrum than a powder."

"There's a little bit more evidence for the anti-inflammatory responses from the blackcurrant than there is from the tart cherry."

"Vitamin D is super, super important. I can't stress how important it is, especially when we live in places that are far away from the equator and we have lots of time of rain and dark winters."

Forever Strong - Why Muscle is Key to Longevity with Dr Gabrielle Lyon Mar 11, 2024

Angela is joined by Dr. Gabrielle Lyon who’s here to discuss her new book, "Forever Strong," which focuses on the importance of skeletal muscle health for overall well-being. Dr. Lyon shares insights on preventing muscle wastage, especially in the context of aging and hormonal changes like menopause, focusing on the significance of starting early with resistance training and proper nutrition to maintain skeletal muscle mass.

They also investigate the relationship between physical strength and mental resilience, highlighting the role of courage, perseverance, self-discipline, adaptability, and resilience in achieving overall strength.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Nutrition plays a crucial role in supporting healthy skeletal muscle mass, with a recommended protein intake of 1 gram per pound of ideal body weight.
The discrepancy between DEXA and in-body scans for measuring body fat percentage highlights the need for alternative methods like waist-to-hip ratio for those without access to advanced scans.
Building mental strength is just as important as physical strength, with attributes like courage, perseverance, self-discipline, adaptability, and resilience being key factors.
Dr. Gabrielle's "Forever Strong" community offers a supportive platform for individuals to access resources, training programs, recipes, and engage in discussions on health and fitness.

BEST MOMENTS

"It is much more dangerous to lose skeletal muscle mass than it is to gain fat. So we have focused all about adipose tissue, but actually, who cares about that?"

"The biggest, most exciting thing that I'm thrilled about is that we get questions like this all the time. So I have created a community and it's called a forever strong community."

"The first thing that I would say is, What have you ever done worthwhile that didn't require courage?"

"I was told I would never come off bipolar medication. And now I'm completely medication free and I credit that to the daily discipline of looking after myself."

Beat Perimenopause Fatigue & Weight Gain: Top Nutrient Deficiencies and How to Fix Them with Louise Digby Mar 08, 2024

Angela is joined by Louise Digby, who discusses her passion for helping women optimise their metabolism and harmonise their hormones.

Louise shares her journey of specialising in hormonal health after noticing common challenges women face with weight loss, especially after the age of 35. Louise also delves into the key factors that can hinder weight loss, such as gut health, toxic load, and nutrient deficiencies.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Gut health, high toxic load, and nutrient deficiencies are common factors that can hinder weight loss and hormonal balance in women.
Nutritional insufficiencies, such as B vitamins, magnesium, and zinc, can significantly impact metabolism and lead to symptoms like fatigue and hair issues.
Addressing cravings by listening to the body's signals for specific nutrients can help improve overall health and reduce the reliance on unhealthy foods.
Fasting can be a useful tool for weight loss and health improvement, but it should be introduced gradually and monitored closely, especially for individuals with high stress levels or intense exercise routines.

BEST MOMENTS

"Belly fat isn't caused by greed or laziness and overindulgence. It's typically caused by an imbalance in hormones, namely high cortisol and sometimes insulin as well."

"I think it's really important to have the foundations in place before incorporating fasting. It can add an extra stress burden, especially for highly stressed individuals."

"Food really is information. It's nutrition. We need to focus on adding in the stuff that we're lacking as opposed to obsessing over what we can't eat."

The Ultimate Nutrition System with Matt Gallant and Wade Lightheart Mar 05, 2024

Angela is joined by Matt Gallant and Wade Lightheart from BIOptimizers to discuss the complexities of universal nutritional optimisers, drawing from their extensive experience as trainers and their dedication to uncovering the most effective dietary strategies.

Matt and Wade debunk myths surrounding calories in, calories out, and delve into the nuances of macronutrients like protein and fibre, highlighting the importance of individualised approaches to diet and lifestyle.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Universal nutritional optimisers that work regardless of the diet followed are of the utmost importance
When it comes to the calories in, calories out axiom, Wade and Matt stress the significance of protein and fibre intake in managing satiety and triggering anabolism.
There is a great need for metabolic flexibility, including strategic fasting and spiking days to maintain body fat percentage and optimise energy expenditure.
It’s vital to tailor nutrition and exercise routines to align with hormonal cycles, especially for women, to maximise results and overall health.
Matt and Wade share insights into their daily routines, including sleep optimisation, cognitive enhancers, and stress management techniques, showcasing a holistic approach to high performance living.

BEST MOMENTS

"I started doing ketogenic diets over 30 years ago. I thought that was the answer for everyone. I put all my clients on it."

"The reality was about 80% of those strategies were similar. The other 20% was the nuances that we found within the individual."

"I think if your sleep is hyper optimised, if you're consuming enough protein feedings a day, and it's worth highlighting that that is the biggest downside of intermittent fasting."

"The reality is, and no matter how good your diet is, you're going to need supplements to fill the holes or your genetic weaknesses."

How To Activate Your Heroic Potential with Brian Johnson Feb 20, 2024

Angela is joined by special guest, Brian Johnson, to delve into the concept of Arete, an ancient Greek word meaning virtue or excellence. Brian emphasises the importance of living with Arete to close the gap between one's potential and actual self. They discuss the significance of energy, work, and love as the "big three" fundamentals for a fulfilling life.

The conversation touches on topics such as building anti-fragile confidence, the role of meditation in improving consciousness, and the necessity of humility in maintaining success. Brian shares practical tips for optimising daily routines, focusing on the process rather than the outcome, and cultivating a mindset of continuous improvement

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Prioritise energy, work, and love by focusing on eating, moving, sleeping, breathing, and focusing the mind consistently.
Embrace challenges as opportunities to grow stronger by maintaining faith, having a plan, and being prepared for setbacks.
Start and end each day intentionally to set the tone for productivity and well-being.
Recognise the importance of humility in acknowledging the need to consistently sharpen your skills and prioritize self-care.
Plan and structure your day to align with your vision of a successful and fulfilling day, focusing on the small things that matter most.

BEST MOMENTS

"The science, as I understand it, is unequivocal. You need to have a sense of what you want, but then you need to rub it up against reality."

"The higher the mountain, the more important the most basic fundamentals are. You better be doing the smallest little things well."

"I adamantly do not agree with the basic idea of the law of attraction that states that you simply need to imagine that which you want to see manifested in your life."

"I love the separation between the process and the outcome. Clearly we want to have goals, outcome goals that we're thinking about."

"The first and most importantly, think about that. What would a masterpiece day look like for you?"

Bitesize Biohack: Longevity, Detoxification & Cellular Energy with Dr Christopher Shade Feb 16, 2024

Angela is joined by Dr Christopher Shade to talk about the importance of phosphatidylcholine in the body and how it plays a crucial role in cell membranes and organelles. They also delve into the significance of maintaining healthy membranes for optimal biochemical power and the consequences of damaged membranes. The conversation then shifts to the topic of toxicity, specifically mercury, and the process of detoxification.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Phosphatidylcholine is an important component of cell membranes and membranous organelles, and its deficiency can lead to cell disruption and dysfunction.
Membranes play a crucial role in driving biochemical power in the body by separating opposites and maintaining polarity.
Mercury toxicity can be a concern, especially from consuming larger fish like tuna and swordfish. Choosing smaller fish with lower mercury levels is recommended.
Mercury detox involves using glutathione and glutathione S-transferase to release mercury from proteins in cells, pushing it out of the cell with the help of ATP and magnesium, and eliminating it through bile flow and stool.

BEST MOMENTS

"Membrane drives all biochemical power in the body by separating opposites." - Interviewee

"You can eat those as your sole protein source three times a day and never become toxic." - Interviewee

"The way you do mercury detox, and this is really a model for how you do all detox." - Interviewee

"We should live really strongly past our 80s. We should pretty easily get up to around 100."

Happy Hormones, Happy You - with Dr Milli Raizada Feb 13, 2024

Angela is joined by Dr Milli Raizada who discusses the topic of hormone imbalance, specifically focusing on oestrogen dominance and its impact on women's health. She breaks down the concept of oestrogen dominance and explains that it can occur due to various factors such as excess oestrogen production, impaired oestrogen breakdown, and exposure to oestrogen mimickers in the environment.

Dr. Milli also talks about the importance of understanding the role of hormones in the body and how they can be influenced by lifestyle factors such as nutrition, exercise, sleep, and stress management, addressing the challenges in diagnosing and treating hormone imbalances within the current medical system, highlighting the need for more research and personalised approaches to care.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Oestrogen dominance is a complex issue that can occur through multiple mechanisms, including high oestrogen levels, low progesterone levels, and exposure to xenoestrogens.
Lifestyle factors such as nutrition, exercise, sleep, and avoiding toxic substances play a crucial role in hormone balance and overall health.
Perimenopause is a phase characterised by fluctuating and declining oestrogen levels, which can lead to various symptoms such as weight gain, brain fog, and mood changes.
Personalised management plans, including hormone replacement therapy (HRT), can be beneficial for women experiencing perimenopausal symptoms, but lifestyle changes should also be incorporated.
Body identical HRT, which includes oestrogen and progesterone, is the recommended approach, while bioidentical HRT is unregulated and lacks robust clinical trials. Progesterone therapy can be individualised based on patient needs and preferences.

BEST MOMENTS

"We know oestrogen is broken down and then we look at those oestrogen metabolites... they have been associated and correlated with certain health conditions."

"We need to remember that [the NHS] is an excellent system for people who are presenting who are unwell and not necessarily people who are wanting preventative care."

"Nutrition is the biggest pillar in the chapter in my book... eating unprocessed whole foods is very important."

Bitesize: Unlocking Vitality -The Secret Hack to Skyrocket Your Metabolism & Energy with Dr Steven Gundry Feb 09, 2024

Angela presents a bitesize featuring Dr. Stephen Gundry, a renowned cardiologist and author, focussing upon mitochondrial uncoupling, a fascinating process that can turbocharge metabolism and aid in weight loss. Dr. Gundry explains how mitochondria, the powerhouses of our cells, generate energy through the coupling of oxygen and protons.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Mitochondrial uncoupling is a process that turns cells into high-performance machines, similar to a Ferrari.
Uncoupling allows mitochondria to release excess pressure and protect themselves from damage caused by the energy production process.
Uncoupling leads to the generation of heat, which helps in maintaining body temperature.
Uncoupling also reduces the workload of each mitochondrion, allowing them to divide and create more mitochondria within a cell.
Older people who are thriving and individuals in blue zones have highly uncoupled mitochondria, which contributes to their longevity and overall health.

BEST MOMENTS

"Believe it or not, the best way to keep your mitochondrial healthy is to uncouple them."

"We reduce the work of each mitochondria, but because mitochondria have their own DNA, they can divide and make more mitochondria within a cell without the cell dividing."

"And then you start looking at some of the blue zones, and it turns out that the food that these blue zones eat our foods that hopefully we'll talk about are really good at uncoupling mitochondria."

"There's a theory of aging called the cost of living hypothesis. And it's quite a nice theory. And that says the higher your metabolic rate, the shorter your lifespan."

Unlocking Hidden Doors: The Role of Psychedelics in Healing Anxiety, Depression & Expanding Human Consciousness with Matt Zemon Feb 06, 2024

Angela talks to author and psychedelics expert Matt Zemon, about psychedelics and their potential for personal growth and healing.

Matt shares his personal journey with psychedelics, including his first experience and the profound insights he gained. They discuss the importance of intention, set, and setting when using psychedelics, as well as the different types of psychedelics and their effects.

Matt emphasises the role of integration in harnessing the transformative power of these substances and how they can help individuals connect with their true selves and experience a sense of interconnectedness

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Psychedelics can be a catalyst for personal growth and self-discovery, but they are not a cure-all and should be approached with caution.
The three key factors for reducing risk when using psychedelics are source (knowing where the medicine comes from), set (having the right mindset and intention), and setting (creating a safe and supportive physical environment).
Different psychedelics have different effects and purposes. For example, MDMA can be used for treating PTSD, psilocybin can facilitate deep introspection, and DMT can provide profound spiritual experiences.
Integration work is crucial after a psychedelic experience to incorporate the insights and lessons into everyday life.
Psychedelics can also be beneficial for end-of-life care, helping individuals and their families navigate the process with more peace and acceptance.

BEST MOMENTS

"The first thing they're going to do is quiet down your default mode network. So that's that inner narrator that is constantly telling you you're not enough, you need to do more, you're not worthy."

"I think that combination of three medicines over a few days is really a powerful arc."

"It's so interesting what you're saying. So interesting. I remember being with my father when he passed away and just realizing in those final moments, the just how much human touch could make a difference."

Bitesize: Banish Brain Fog, Boost Mood & Support Healthy Oestrogen Levels Feb 02, 2024

www.angelafosterperformance.com/hormones

Angela discusses the topic of oestrogen and its impact on women's health during perimenopause, focussing on the various symptoms that can arise when oestrogen levels drop, such as hot flashes, brain fog, low mood, irritability, and anxiety.

Angela provides valuable nutritional strategies to support healthy oestrogen levels, including incorporating phytoestrogen-rich foods like nuts, flax seeds, soy, and red clover. Omega-3 fatty acids from sources like oily fish and grass-fed meat are recommended to boost serotonin levels and alleviate mood-related symptoms. Cruciferous vegetables, probiotics, and foods rich in polyphenols are also highlighted for their ability to support gut health and oestrogen metabolism.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Phytoestrogens, found in foods like nuts, flax seeds, soy, red clover, pomegranate, and kudzu, can help alleviate menopausal symptoms by improving oestrogen levels.
Omega-3 fatty acids, found in oily fish like salmon, mackerel, anchovies, sardines, and herrings, can help boost serotonin levels and improve mood during perimenopause.
Cruciferous vegetables, such as broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, bok choy, brussels sprouts, kale, mustard, kohlrabi, and turnip, contain DIM, which can shift oestrogen metabolism to favour healthy oestrogen metabolites.
Consuming probiotic-rich foods like live yogurt, kefir, sauerkraut, kimchi, kombucha, and limited amounts of sourdough bread can support a healthy microbiome and oestrogen levels.
Calcium D Glucarate, found in fruits and vegetables like Brussels sprouts, broccoli, cabbage, and apples, can inhibit enzymes that contribute to breast and colon cancer and reduce oestrogen absorption from the digestive tract.

BEST MOMENTS

"Perimenopause can be a bit of a curve ball for many women." (Host)

"Phytoestrogens have healthy oestrogen-like activity that can help alleviate menopausal symptoms." (Host)

"Omega-3 fatty acids can help improve low mood and serotonin levels." (Host)

"Cruciferous vegetables contain DIM, which can shift oestrogen metabolism to favour friendly oestrogen metabolites." (Host)

"Good quality fats are associated with a lower risk of heart disease and breast cancer."

Passion Struck: Unlock Your True Potential, The Finnish Art of Sisu, Resiliency & High Performance with John R Miles Jan 30, 2024

Angela talks to special guest, John R. Miles, author of the book "Passion Struck." John shares his personal journey of resilience and overcoming challenges, including a traumatic brain injury. He discusses the importance of inner grit and perseverance in pursuing one's passions, and emphasises the need to break free from a routine that lacks fulfilment and offers practical advice on how to align intentions with actions.

He also explores the concept of self-mastery and the power of reinvention, delving into the mindset and behaviours of high performers, the importance of reading and continuous learning, and the role of intentionality in achieving success

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The book "Passion Struck" explores the mindset and behaviours necessary for creating a fulfilling and passionate life.
The key to breaking free from a life that feels unfulfilling is to align your intentions with your actions and make intentional changes in one area of your life at a time.
Developing self-mastery and overcoming self-doubt are crucial components of living a passion-driven life.
Time is malleable, and by optimising your time and being intentional with your actions, you can accomplish more in less time.
Reinvention and continuous learning are essential for personal growth and success in a rapidly changing world.

BEST MOMENTS

"It's really coming down to this feeling of, do you want to keep perpetuating a life where you're making other people's dreams come true, but you're not making your own dreams come true?"

"To break free from that, it's not something that's just done overnight. I think the first thing that you've got to do is create awareness that you have these behaviours in the first place."

"The upper limit problem is something that a lot of us face, we tend to think that we can only grow so far."

"The more intentional actions that you start taking in these micro choices that make up your day, the easier that path is going to become."

The Impact of Birth Control On Stress with Dr Sarah E Hill Jan 26, 2024

Angela and guest Dr Sarah Hill discuss the fascinating research on the stress response and cortisol in relation to hormonal birth control, highlighting the profound influence of sex hormones on the body and how women on hormonal birth control have a blunted cortisol response to stress.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Women on hormonal birth control have a blunted cortisol response to stress.
Cortisol is beneficial in the short term for coping with stress and memory formation.
Chronic exposure to cortisol can be detrimental to the body, leading to a shutdown of the stress response.
Women on the birth control pill exhibit a blunted cortisol response similar to individuals with PTSD or trauma.
The first three months of birth control pill use may cause the HPA axis to go into overdrive, leading to a shutdown of the stress response.

BEST MOMENTS

"Cortisol helps our body and our brain cope with whatever it is that we're experiencing that's stressful."

"Women who are on the birth control pill exhibit this blunted cortisol response to stress because they essentially have the HPA axis, which is the brain adrenal axis, which is the thing that drives cortisol release and regulates cortisol release."

"I think the body goes into cortisol overdrive when you go on the pill, and I think it probably has to do with the progestins binding to these cortisol receptors."

Heart Rate Variability, Resilience and High Performance with Kristen Holmes Jan 23, 2024

Angela is joined by Kristen Holmes, to discuss the features and benefits of the WHOOP physiological monitoring device. They delve into the concept of recovery and how WHOOP helps individuals understand their body's response to external stress.

They also explore metrics such as heart rate variability, strain, and sleep consistency, highlighting their importance in achieving optimal health and performance, looking at the impact of circadian rhythms, light exposure, and sleep-wake times on overall well-being.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

WHOOP is a 24/7 physiological monitoring device that tracks heart rate, heart rate variability, strain, and sleep.
Recovery is a key metric that measures how well your body is adapting to external stressors.
Sleep regularity, or consistent sleep-wake times, is crucial for optimal health and functioning.
Heart rate variability is a measure of your body's ability to adapt to stress and is associated with improved cardiovascular and metabolic function.
Strain is a measure of cardiovascular load and can be influenced by factors such as exercise intensity, sleep, and stress levels.

BEST MOMENTS

"We want to try to get ourselves into a regular sleep-wake cycle, we want to focus on waking up at a similar time every single day, because what that does is then where our exposure to light is happening at a similar time”

"When we started this whole kind of campaign around strain, it was really to understand how hard your heart is working."

"I think it's just getting out of this, like, step mindset and thinking about, 'Alright, how hard is my heart working? And how active am I versus sedentary?'"

"It’s velocity-based training is kind of what we're understanding how quickly you're moving the weights. And there's an algorithm that helps us understand what that load on your musculoskeletal is."

90-Second Success Formula Daily Habit Mastery for Achieving Your Goals Jan 19, 2024

Angela discusses the importance of controlling the process in order to achieve goals. While we may not have control over the outcome, we can control our actions and focus on the present moment.

Angela looks at the need to celebrate wins along the way and avoid comparing ourselves to others, as comparison can be demotivating. She also explores the emotional cycle of change and the stages one goes through when trying to create behaviour change

KEY TAKEAWAYS

While we may not have control over the outcome, we can control the process by visualising ourselves doing the work and taking steps towards our goals.
Instead of focusing on the gap between where we are and where we want to be, it's important to celebrate the progress we make each day. This helps to stay motivated and avoid comparing ourselves to others.
The emotional cycle of change consists of stages such as uninformed optimism, informed pessimism, the valley of despair, informed optimism, and success.
Pushing through the valley of despair is crucial for achieving goals.
Prioritise the actions that will have the most impact on moving closer to your goals.
Make small, consistent changes that build self-confidence and self-esteem

BEST MOMENTS

"Comparison is really the thief of joy."

"If you go through that valley of despair and then you kind of step back, you don't continue with what you're doing, you're not going to achieve your goals."

"When we follow through on things, that helps to build our self-confidence and our self-esteem."

"If you just focus on getting 1% better every day, within 12 months you will be 37 times better."

They discuss the importance of prioritising gut health and addressing gut issues, such as leaky gut and malabsorption, which can lead to autoimmune conditions, chronic fatigue, and weight loss resistance. They also delve into the role of insulin resistance in hormone imbalances, particularly in women with conditions like PCOS, and how peptides like semi-glutide can positively influence insulin resistance and improve hormonal balance.

Insulin resistance can lead to hormone imbalances in women, and addressing insulin resistance can have positive effects on hormonal health.
Artificial sweeteners, especially those found in processed foods and drinks, can have negative effects on the body and should be avoided or minimised.
Supplementing with key nutrients like magnesium, B vitamins, and antioxidants can support energy production, combat oxidative stress, and promote overall health.
Getting adequate sleep is important for optimal health, and prioritising sleep hygiene and creating a consistent sleep schedule can have a significant impact on well-being.

BEST MOMENTS

"I feel everyone should be taking CoQ10 like after the age of like 35 because it just kind of is going to decline."

"I think I just need a lot more relaxation and rest than I because I just go I, I like to go, go, go, go, go. But, that's like humans today."

Overcome Limiting Beliefs and Step Into Your Future Self with Paul Sheppard Jan 09, 2024

Angela is joined by Paul from Mindset Change UK, to discuss the key factors that prevent people from living their best lives and creating the changes they desire. Paul explains that conditioning from the past often holds people back, leading to self-sabotage and an upper limit problem.

They delve into the importance of devaluing negative thoughts and programs, as well as the role of coaching in overcoming anxiety and achieving personal growth. They also explore the concept of self-love and the power of mindfulness in shifting mindset.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Conditioning from the past often prevents people from living their best lives.
Conditioning can occur at any age, not just during childhood.
Anxiety is often caused by neglecting emotional and physical needs.
Seeking help and coaching is important for personal growth and overcoming limitations.
Focussing too much on the mind rather than the mind-body-heart connection can also lead to anxiety.
Devaluing negative thoughts and programs is important in order to break free from them and create new, positive beliefs.

BEST MOMENTS

"We can have what's known as an upper limit problem. So some people get to a certain level when it comes to success and then they do everything they can to sabotage the hell out of it."

"There is a lot of science talking about what we pick up conditioning-wise from our parents and adult caregivers as we were growing up."

"The more we begin to devalue it and make it boring... the more quickly we change."

"If you're not seeking help, you're falling into the trap of staying miserable. You're falling into the trap of struggling, which is another way of you not reaching your goals."

Bitesize: Make 2024 Your Best Year - How to Remove Hidden Blocks to Achieving Your Goals Jan 05, 2024

Angela kicks off the new year with a bitesize episode exploring the real reason why people may not be achieving their goals, and looking at the power of the subconscious mind, which directs 90% of our actions.

To achieve our goals, Angela suggests developing habits and rituals that become automatic, highlighting two potential obstacles: values that are not aligned with the goal and hidden commitments in other areas of life

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The subconscious mind plays a significant role in directing our actions and behaviours, with 90% of our actions being driven by the subconscious.
To achieve goals, it is important to establish habits and rituals that become automatic and aligned with our values.
Hidden commitments can hinder goal achievement, and it is crucial to identify and address them.
Resistance and hidden commitments are different, with resistance being the feeling of not wanting to follow through on a particular action, while hidden commitments arise from conflicting priorities or commitments.
Motivation comes through action, so it is important to start taking action towards goals rather than waiting for motivation to appear.

BEST MOMENTS

"Now, we know that 90% of what we do is directed by our subconscious mind, not by the conscious mind."

"Understanding that you will always act in alignment with your highest values is really, really important."

"Resistance is when we feel like we can't sort of or we don't want to follow through on a particular area."

"Motivation comes through action. So do not wait for motivation to get started."

Stop Training Like A Man! The Science on Working With Your Hormones for Extraordinary Results with Dr Stacy Sims Jan 02, 2024

Angela is joined by Dr. Stacy Sims, who discusses the updated science and recommendations for women's health and fitness, specifically focusing on the menstrual cycle, perimenopause, and postmenopause.

She highlights the importance of adapting exercise and training strategies to accommodate the changes in hormone levels and body composition during these stages. Dr. Stacy Sims emphasises the need for a personalized approach, taking into account individual experiences and tracking of the menstrual cycle. She also discusses the benefits of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and sprint interval training (SIT) for women, as well as the importance of resistance training

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Hormone therapy, also known as menopause hormone therapy, is a tool that can help mitigate symptoms of menopause, such as mood swings, sleep issues, and vasomotor symptoms.
However, it does not replace the need for lifestyle changes to improve body composition and overall health.
Women in perimenopause and postmenopause should focus on high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and sprint interval training (SIT) to stimulate glycolytic activity and enhance mitochondrial health.
This type of training can be done through various exercises, such as running, cycling, rowing, or plyometric movements.
Resistance training, particularly power-based exercises like deadlifts, squats, and shoulder presses, should be a consistent part of a woman's exercise routine.
Periodizing resistance training can help target specific muscle groups and prevent boredom.
Supplements like black currant juice concentrate, tart cherry juice, creatine, omega-3s, and vitamin D can be beneficial for women's health.

BEST MOMENTS

"We have to look at getting some more oxidative capacity. So that's when zone two might come in handy.”

"So when we're looking at mitochondria and function, that is all about that high-intensity glycolytic stuff that we're women don't have a lot of so then it causes an up regulation of the Transport mechanisms."

"We have two weeks of focus training and then one week of full recovery. And in that recovery week, this is your mobility.”

"If you're doing two weeks on one week off, or you're doing three weeks on one week off or whatever it is, you have a six week focus of maybe deadlift or all posterior chain."

ABOUT THE GUEST

STACY T. SIMS, MSC, PHD, is a forward-thinking international exercise physiologist and nutrition scientist who aims to revolutionize exercise nutrition and performance for women.
She has directed research programs at Stanford, AUT University, and the University of Waikato, focusing on female athlete health and performance and pushing the dogma to improve research on all women.
With the unique opportunities, Silicon Valley has to offer, during her tenure at Stanford, she had the opportunity to translate earlier research into consumer products and a science-based layperson's book (ROAR) written to explain sex differences in training and nutrition across the lifespan. Both the consumer products and the book challenged the existing dogma for women in exercise, nutrition, and health. This paradigm shift is the focus of her famous "Women Are Not Small Men” TEDx talk.

Bitesize Biohack: The Neuroscience of Achieving Your Goals with John Assaraf Dec 29, 2023

Angela presents a bitesize version of her conversation with John Assaraf, a leading high-performance success coach and behavioural neuroscience researcher, who discusses the main obstacle holding people back from achieving their best lives, which he identifies as ignorance.

He explains that ignorance simply means not knowing, and it refers to the beliefs and patterns that individuals have developed over time. John also emphasises the power of the human brain and the potential for individuals to consciously rewire their beliefs and self-image

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Ignorance is the main obstacle holding people back from achieving their best lives.
Beliefs are patterns created and reinforced over time, regardless of whether they are true or empowering.
It is possible to deliberately and consciously create new belief systems and upgrade one's self-image.
Lack of knowledge and skills is no longer an excuse with the availability of information through technology.
Achieving one's fullest potential requires bridging the gap between what is known and what needs to be known and done.

BEST MOMENTS

"The number one thing holding people back is ignorance. Not knowing what they don't know."

"We've become conditioned and hypnotized by what society expects us to achieve."

"Belief is nothing more than a pattern that was created and reinforced over time."

"The brain is agnostic to truth or fiction. Anything I learned to believe became reinforced."

Bitesize Biohack: Fasting in Perimenopause with Dr Mindy Pelz Dec 22, 2023

Angela interviews Dr. Mindy Pelz about the importance of fasting for women, particularly those in perimenopause. They discuss how hormonal changes during this stage of life can impact fasting and offer insights on how to optimise fasting for progesterone production.

Dr. Pelz emphasises the need for women over 40 to adapt their lifestyle and diet to support their changing hormones, and shares her personal experience and provides practical tips on tracking cycles, adjusting carbohydrate intake, and listening to hunger cues

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Estrogen levels fluctuate during perimenopause, leading to symptoms such as hot flashes, changes in skin and hair, and increased insulin resistance.
Women over 40 can benefit from fasting to help manage the hormonal changes associated with perimenopause.
Tracking menstrual cycles and using hunger as a guide can help determine the optimal fasting and carbohydrate intake for progesterone production.
Spotting during perimenopause is a sign that progesterone levels need support, and increasing glucose and nurturing oneself can help regulate the menstrual cycle.
Adjusting fasting, carbohydrate intake, and exercise intensity based on hormonal fluctuations can help optimise hormone balance during perimenopause.

BEST MOMENTS

"The lifestyle you did at 30 is not going to necessarily work for you at 40. The diet and exercise plan that kept you in great shape at 35 doesn't have the same effect at 45."

"In the beginning stages of our 40s, our estrogen is going up and down. So what that means to us is that we're gonna have days we feel completely normal, and we're gonna have days where we feel horrible."

"When all of a sudden it became day 35, and it didn't appear that my cycle was coming. I used my hunger as insight into what I needed to do."

"If you're spotting, that is a clear sign that progesterone needs your help. So let's bring carbs up and let's bring fasting down. And then you'll see that the cycle starts."

Neuroscience, The Root Causes of Memory Loss and How To Protect Your Brain with Dr Dale Bredesen Dec 19, 2023

Angela is joined by Dr. Dale Bredesen, who discusses the prevalence of Alzheimer's disease and the difference between Alzheimer's and other forms of dementia.

He emphasises the importance of early detection and treatment, as Alzheimer's is a progressive disease that can be present for many years before symptoms appear. Dr. Bredesen explains the four phases of Alzheimer's and the potential for prevention and reversal of cognitive decline through lifestyle interventions.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Alzheimer's disease is a common and devastating form of dementia that affects millions of people worldwide.
Alzheimer's is characterized by a progressive decline in cognitive function, including memory loss, difficulty with language and communication, and impaired daily functioning.
Early detection and intervention are crucial in managing Alzheimer's disease.
The earlier the treatment is initiated, the better the chances of preventing or reversing cognitive decline.
Lifestyle factors such as diet, exercise, sleep, stress management, brain training, detoxification, and targeted supplements play a significant role in preventing and managing Alzheimer's disease.
Hormone therapy, specifically bioidentical hormone replacement, may be beneficial for women experiencing menopause-related cognitive decline

BEST MOMENTS

"Your generation is the first generation that does not have to fear Alzheimer's."

"We can pretty much prevent it or do early reversals in just about everyone."

"We do see people even in late stages where we get some improvement, but they don't tend to come all the way back to normal."

"Sleep is one of the ways that you stay sharp, that you improve your processing speed."

Burn Fat Fast, Optimise Fasting & Find Your Best Time to Eat Carbs with Mia Johanna Dige Dec 12, 2023

Angela talks to Mia Johanna Dige from Lumen, about the concept of metabolic flexibility and how it impacts our overall health. Mia, a specialist in nutrition and metabolic health, explains that metabolic flexibility refers to the ability to efficiently switch between using fats and carbohydrates as fuel sources. She highlights the importance of metabolic health as a foundation for achieving various health goals and discusses how Lumen, a breath analysis device, can help individuals track their metabolic flexibility in real-time.

Mia also delves into the role of stress, fasting, and exercise in optimising metabolic flexibility and shares insights on how to use the Lumen device to personalise nutrition and fasting strategies

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Metabolic flexibility is the ability to efficiently switch between using fats and carbohydrates as fuel sources.
Metabolic health is the foundation for achieving various health goals, such as weight loss, fitness optimisation, and healthy aging.
The Lumen device measures the carbon dioxide concentration in breath to determine the percentage of fat and carbohydrate burn, providing real-time information about fuel utilisation.
Stress can negatively impact metabolic flexibility and fat burn potential, so managing stress levels is crucial for optimising metabolic health.
The Lumen device can be used to optimise fasting by tracking fasting duration and identifying the ideal window for breaking the fast to avoid physiological stress and overeating

BEST MOMENTS

"Stress definitely has a huge impact on metabolic flexibility. Individuals in chronic stress or even acute stress are less likely to reach fat burn and more likely to be in carb burn."

"If you fast too long, you risk overeating afterwards. It can have a knock-on effect on our hormones where cortisol is stealing away the building blocks needed for progesterone."

"We want to optimise our hormonal health and incorporate intermittent fasting, but not put ourselves at risk of going into physiological stress. Lumen can help us find that balance."

"The lumen device is a game changer for optimising fasting. It helps individuals track their fasts and make small changes to their fasting window based on their metabolic readings."

Bitesize Biohack: Accidentally Overweight - Stress, Hormones & Metabolism with Dr Libby Weaver Dec 08, 2023

Angela talks to Dr Libby Weaver, about how her own beliefs about calorie restriction and intense exercise were challenged when she observed that some individuals were not losing body fat despite their efforts.

This realisation led her to delve into the factors that influence the body's ability to burn or store fat. She highlights the role of the nervous system and stress hormones in this process, explaining how constantly elevated levels of adrenaline can impact digestion, fuel utilisation, and cravings for sweet foods

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The calorie equation is not the sole factor influencing body shape and size.
Many people who restrict calories do not see significant changes in body fat or weight loss.
The belief that intense exercise is necessary to maintain or achieve a certain body shape is ingrained in society, particularly among women.
This mindset can lead to unhealthy habits and unrealistic expectations.
Constantly elevated levels of adrenaline, primarily caused by caffeine and psychological stress, can have negative effects on the body.
It can lead to compromised digestion, increased desire for sweet foods, and a shift in the body's preferred fuel source from fat to glucose.
The stress response has three stages, with the first stage characterized by elevated adrenaline.
This stage prepares the body for fight or flight and can create inflammatory compounds.

BEST MOMENTS

"We were taught that the calorie equation was the only thing that influenced body shape and size."

"I ran like that because it was so ingrained in me, in my education that you had to exercise intensely to maintain the way that you are to basically be able to eat."

"We really are the first generation of people to have constantly, relentlessly elevated levels of adrenaline and it changes our chemistry."

"So many people start their biochemistry being told that glucose is their most effective fuel and they gradually start to lose the ability to use their body fat as fuel."

Reverse Biological Aging & Enhance Your Longevity with Dr Chris Shade Dec 05, 2023

Angela talks to Dr Chris Shade about the concept of longevity and the creation of the Longevity Wheel. The Longevity Wheel is a graphical representation of the key factors that contribute to longevity, including Nrf2 and AMPK activation, NAD optimization, sirtuin activation, telomere maintenance, senolytics, and the neuroendocrine system.

Dr Shade explains how each of these factors plays a role in promoting longevity and discusses the importance of supplementation and lifestyle choices in optimising these pathways. The conversation also touches on the impact of genetics, the role of inflammation in aging, and the benefits of fasting and exercise.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The Longevity Wheel is a graphical representation of the key factors that can affect longevity.
It includes Nrf2 and AMPK at the top, followed by NAD, sirtuins, telomeres, senolytics, and the neuroendocrine system.
These factors can be targeted through supplementation to promote a younger version of the body.
NAD levels naturally decline with age, and this decline can be accelerated by inflammatory processes.
Supplementing with NAD precursors, such as NMN or NR, can help maintain NAD levels and support mitochondrial function.
It is important to balance NAD supplementation with adequate methyl donors to avoid potential side effects.
Telomeres are protective caps at the ends of chromosomes that shorten with age.
When telomeres become too short, cells enter a senescent state, characterized by inflammation and reduced cell growth.
Senolytics, such as quercetin and fisetin, can help remove senescent cells, while maintaining optimal glutathione levels and Nrf2 activation can support telomere health.
Fasting and exercise can stimulate autophagy, AMPK activation, and ketone production, which are beneficial for longevity.
Intermittent fasting, especially during specific phases of the menstrual cycle for women, can optimise these processes.

BEST MOMENTS

"The AMPK charge has berberine and resveratrol and cinnamon, which are strong AMPK activators."

"Fasting reboots the immune system. It reboots all kinds of stuff. Often, we want to be able to reverse everything without changing our diet, without doing something like fasting, but you need to do that."

"You need a lot of methyl groups for those people. And then the more under stress you are, the more methyl groups you generally need."

"Fasting stimulates all of this stuff. Fasting is so freaking good because fasting stimulates all of this stuff. Fasting reboots the immune system."

Bitesize - The 4 Pillars to Financial Freedom and Success with Morgan T Nelson Dec 01, 2023

Angela presents a bitesize version of her conversation with Morgan T Nelson, in which they focus on the four pillars of success and how they can be used to achieve one's goals – aspects which include having a clear vision and outcome in mind, being absolutely clear on what you want and surrounding yourself with people who have similar goals, and taking massive action, aligning your beliefs and values with your goals and maintaining a positive attitude.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Having a clear vision is crucial for success
Before diving into any goals or strategies, it is important to know your desired outcome and have a clear vision of what you want to achieve.
Surrounding yourself with people who have similar goals and aspirations can greatly impact your success.
By being in the right environment and connecting with people who are also striving for success, you can learn from each other and support each other's growth.
Whether it's through personal development, starting a business, or investing, finding the right vehicle to move you towards your goals is essential.
It's important to identify the path or strategy that aligns with your vision and take action accordingly.
Timing plays a crucial role in achieving success. Seeing your vision, believing in it, deciding on it, and taking action at the right time are all important factors.
Visualisation and belief in your goals can help align your actions and attract the right opportunities.

BEST MOMENTS

"If you surround yourself with people that have a similar goal... you'll probably start to figure out a thing or two about how to better your own life as well."

"All beliefs are completely made up... Why not believe in yourself?"

"99% is a bitch and 100% is a breeze."

"The third person... They just get up and they just change their sail. No stories, no questions, no complaining. The wind's not blowing my direction."

Mitochondrial Health & Slowing Biological Aging - with Dr Chris Rinsch Nov 28, 2023

Angela interviews Chris from Timeline Nutrition about their product, Mitopure. They discuss the importance of mitochondrial health and how Mitopure, specifically urolithin A, can improve mitochondrial function and energy production.

They delve into the effects of aging on mitochondrial health and how lifestyle factors, such as exercise and nutrition, play a role. Chris shares the results of their clinical studies, which show improvements in muscle strength, endurance, and skin health. They also touch on the potential cognitive benefits of urolithin A and the future research they are conducting

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Mitopure, a product developed by Timeline, contains urolithin A, which has been shown to improve mitochondrial health and energy production in cells.
Mitochondrial health declines as we age, but lifestyle factors such as exercise and a healthy diet can help maintain and improve mitochondrial function.
Clinical studies have demonstrated that taking urolithin A in the form of Mitopure can lead to improvements in muscle strength, endurance, and recovery, even in sedentary individuals.
Urolithin A has also shown potential benefits for skin health, including reducing wrinkle depth and improving collagen production.

BEST MOMENTS

"We were able to see that they were improving their muscle strength without following an exercise regimen as well."

"We saw an improvement in leg muscle strength that was statistically significant, about 10% over their baseline levels."

"We were improving mitochondrial function when we started going into tissue, into cells that are comprising the skin."

Fix Your Posture: The Connection Between Your Posture & Your Brain, Feet & Eyes with Annette Verpillot Nov 21, 2023

Angela is joined by Annette Verpillot to discuss the fascinating connection between posture, the brain, and overall health. She explains how our ability to fight gravity impacts our energy levels, longevity, and even blood pressure.

Annette emphasises the importance of proper posture and its impact on the nervous system, as well as the role of the feet, jaw, and eyes in maintaining good posture. She also shares insights on how to address unconscious posture habits and offers solutions for improving posture through sensory stimulation

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Posture plays a crucial role in our overall health and longevity. The way we fight gravity can impact our energy levels, blood pressure, and even lead to chronic inflammation and stress.
Proper posture involves the synergy between our feet, eyes, and vestibular system. Imbalances in these areas can lead to postural issues and pain.
Therapeutic insoles can be used to stimulate the feet and improve balance and posture. These insoles use a specific frequency to optimise sensory input and reduce postural oscillations.
Tongue posture is essential for proper jaw development and breathing. The tongue should be positioned just behind the front teeth and flat on the palate to promote optimal growth and prevent dental issues.

BEST MOMENTS

"The way we fight gravity dictates our health and longevity."

"Gravity is a driving force that is going to build our brains."

"If the one factor of fighting gravity is already off balance before we begin our day, then we just end up wearing ourselves out prematurely."

"Anything that's going to promote the movement of the foot, I'm a big advocate of."

Bitesize Neuroscience: How Your Mind Creates Your Reality with Dr Tara Swart Nov 17, 2023

Angela presents a bitesize version of her fascinating interview with Dr Tara Swart, in which they discuss the concept of manifesting and the role of vibrational energy in the process. They explore the idea that raising one's vibrational energy is crucial for manifestation, with a focus on positive expectancy and cultivating an abundant mindset.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The law of vibration is considered to be more important than the law of attraction in manifesting. Raising one's vibrational energy is crucial in this process.
Positive expectancy and having an abundant mindset are key factors in raising one's vibration. Focusing on the positives and framing oneself for an abundant mindset can help in manifesting desired outcomes.
Fear, sadness, and shame are associated with a lower vibrational state, while love, trust, and excitement are associated with a higher vibrational state. Shifting from fear to love and trust can have a positive impact on manifesting.
Instead of setting big New Year's resolutions, it is more effective to build small habits gradually throughout the year. By starting with small steps and gradually increasing them, one can achieve significant progress in various areas, such as weight loss or financial goals.

BEST MOMENTS

"I prefer to talk about making my mindset more abundant... because that makes me feel like I've got more agency."

"Do you focus more on the positives?... That's framing yourself for an abundant mindset."

"Move yourself from fear and sadness and shame to love and trust and excitement." -

"Just pick the smallest thing that you can do to move yourself towards that and then build it up in four stages over the year."

Menstrual Cycle Productivity: The Art of Working With Your Cycle, Not Against It with Renae Fieck Nov 14, 2023

Angela talks to Renae Fieck about optimising high performance for women, including the importance of understanding and working with the menstrual cycle to enhance productivity, creativity, and overall well-being.

They explore the different phases of the cycle, such as the recharge phase, the action phase, and the admin phase, and how each phase affects energy levels, focus, and motivation. They also touch on the interplay between hormones, circadian rhythms, and productivity.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Tracking your menstrual cycle and being aware of the different phases can help optimise your performance and productivity.
It's important to honour your body's natural rhythms and adjust your tasks and activities accordingly.
Pay attention to your energy levels throughout the day and schedule your most important tasks during times when you feel most energised and focused.
Blocking off time in your calendar for the luteal and menstrual phases can help you prioritise rest and recovery during those times.
Taking care of your overall health, including nutrition and exercise, can support your energy levels and performance throughout your menstrual cycle.

BEST MOMENTS

"We have estrogen in the first half of the month and estrogen is that hormone that kind of makes us feel like sharp and clear and ready to produce and go and push hard."

"It's as simple as just making that micro shift, like the awareness that you talk about, just bringing the awareness to where we are throughout our phases."

"It's about creating this rhythm throughout the entire month versus feeling like we have to just keep pushing and allowing ourselves that permission, like you talked about, and letting go of the guilt."

"So those are kind of like an overview of the four phases and really how we kind of match them up with our productivity and our work."

"We have these rhythms throughout the day. We have the rhythms through the month with our menstrual cycle. We even have seasonal rhythms”

Bitesize Biohack: Banish SAD & Upgrade Your Energy in The Winter Months with Beth McDougall M.D Nov 10, 2023

Angela interviews Dr. Beth McDougal about the importance of mitochondrial health and its impact on overall well-being. They discuss various therapies and biohacking techniques that can optimise mitochondrial function, such as red light therapy and pulsed electromagnetic field therapies.

Dr. McDougal explains how these treatments can improve energy production within cells, leading to better cellular health and overall vitality.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Mitochondria are the energy powerhouses of our cells and play a crucial role in our overall health and well-being.
Red light therapy can up-regulate mitochondrial function by unblocking enzymes and increasing energy production within cells.
Pulsed electromagnetic field therapies can help charge cell membranes and improve overall cellular health.
Resonance biofeedback therapy can identify and correct aberrant energetic signatures in the body, promoting healing and balance.

BEST MOMENTS

"When the energy production goes up within the cell, then the cellular health improves, the person's health improves."

"The red light and near infrared light wavelengths will unblock that enzyme liberate it again, so that it can function more fully."

"We have a unique energetic signature that as we go through life can become contaminated by foreign energetic signatures that are not harmonious with our bodies."

"We're working on all levels...treating infections, balancing hormones, improving the microbiome, evaluating the person's diet, and regulating mitochondrial function."

Cycle Syncing for High Performance and Health Optimisation with Alisa Vitti Nov 07, 2023

Angela welcomes Alisa Vitti, the founder of Flow Living, who discusses the importance of optimising women's hormones and the impact it has on their overall health and well-being.

Alisa shares insights from her 20 years of experience in this field, highlighting the positive shift in the conversation around women's hormones and the growing awareness of the need to take action. She also discusses the detrimental effects of stress on women's hormones and the accelerated aging process many women experience, providing practical tips on nutrition, including the importance of managing blood glucose levels and the impact of alcohol on hormonal health

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Women are often asked to take on too much without adequate compensation or support, leading to increased stress levels. This stress can have a negative impact on hormones, particularly cortisol and progesterone, and contribute to accelerated ovarian aging.
Synthetic birth control is not a cure for hormonal issues such as PCOS, endometriosis, or fibroids. It is a temporary band-aid that can disrupt micronutrient balance and have long-term negative effects on hormonal health.
Nutrition plays a crucial role in optimising hormonal health and longevity. Cutting out alcohol, managing blood glucose levels, and lifting heavy weights are key factors in supporting hormonal balance and overall health.
Cycle syncing, which involves aligning nutrition, fitness, and productivity with the different phases of the menstrual cycle, can help women optimise their hormonal health and alleviate symptoms. It is important to listen to your body and make choices based on how you feel rather than striving for perfection.

BEST MOMENTS

"Women are going through a hormonal aging process much more rapidly than they should be, and that's across the board."

"Synthetic birth control is not a cure for your PCOS, for your endometriosis, for your PMDD, for your fibroids. It's not a cure at all in any way."

"You really just want to be in this constant curiosity, experimentation state. This is not about being perfect and getting it right at all."

Bitesize Preview: Empowering Women through The Cycle Syncing Method®️ with Alisa Vitti Nov 03, 2023

Angela presents a bitesize alongside Alissa Vitti, who discusses key nutrition tips and practices for promoting longevity and overall health, particularly for women over the age of 45.

They look at the negative effects of alcohol on aging and disease risk, encouraging women to eliminate it from their diets, plus the importance of managing blood glucose levels is also highlighted, with the suggestion of wearing a continuous glucose monitor to understand individual metabolic responses to different foods

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Alcohol is not recommended for women over 45 due to its negative effects on aging and increased risk for diseases.
Managing blood glucose levels is important for stable moods, energy, and overall hormonal health in women over 45.
Strength training, particularly lifting heavy weights, is crucial for maintaining muscle mass and bone density as women age.
The intensity of cardio workouts should be adjusted throughout the menstrual cycle, with lighter and shorter workouts recommended during the luteal phase and menstruation.

BEST MOMENTS

"Alcohol is not your friend... it's on its way to being classified as a class one carcinogen."

"I personally took it out of my diet when I was 35... this is going to create more of an aging response at this stage of my life."

"Strength training is a must do... it's going to build up some muscle and it's going to strengthen your bone density."

Transform Your Body, Transform Your Life - with Akash Vaghela Oct 31, 2023

Angela is joined by Akash Vaghela, the founder of RNT Fitness, a body composition and transformation program. They discuss the importance of achieving sustainable results and the difference between being in the best shape of your life versus the best shape for life.

Akash stresses the need for a mindset shift and behaviour change in order to maintain long-term success, and delves into the role of nutrition and training in body composition goals, highlighting the significance of finding a balance that works for each individual. Akash also shares his own plant-based meal plan and offers insights on maintaining a healthy lifestyle

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The key to long-term success in maintaining body composition results is to rewire your identity and change your behaviour and mindset.
Many people struggle to maintain their results because they revert back to their old way of living and fall into old habits.
It is important to find a balance between satiety and enjoyment when it comes to nutrition, and focusing on a predominantly plant-based diet can help with this.
Consistency in training is crucial for maintaining body composition results, and finding a form of exercise that you enjoy and can commit to is key.

BEST MOMENTS

"The physical is the vehicle...if you do a physical transformation, it serves as a vehicle to do things you never thought possible in all areas of your life."

"The best shape of your life is an unsustainable place to get to...your shape for life is a sweet spot where you feel, look, and perform your best."

"I think nutrition is the biggest reason why people don't achieve their body composition goals...emotional eating and stress eating are the biggest problems."

"The best thing people can do for satiety is follow a predominantly plant-based diet...high volume, nutrient-dense foods on your plate."

Bitesize Biohack: The Key Peptides You Need to Know About for Energy and Anti-aging with Dr Neil Paulvin Oct 26, 2023

Angela presents a bitesize alongside Neil Paulvin, in which they discuss the benefits of mitochondrial peptides, specifically MOTC, SS31, and Eumannan.

These peptides work on reading frames within the mitochondria, initially thought to be beneficial for aging and mitochondrial health, but now linked to other advantages. However, availability of these peptides varies by country, with the US having more accessibility compared to the UK.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

MOTC, SS31, and Eumannin are mitochondrial peptides that have been linked to various health benefits, including anti-aging, improved mitochondrial health, increased energy, and anti-inflammatory effects.
MOTC works on AMPK, an energy chemical hormone in the body, and can simulate exercise, making it beneficial for workouts. It also improves insulin sensitivity and induces mitochondrial biogenesis.
SS31 is a potent antioxidant and has shown potential in improving heart function and helping patients with heart failure. It may also be used for tendinopathy and tendinitis.
Eumannin is less studied compared to MOTC and SS31 but has shown potential benefits for osteoporosis, muscle building, infertility, and PCOS.

BEST MOMENTS

"MOTC does a lot of things… It's kind of like getting a workout without doing it."

"SS31… has many more studies… It's really been shown to help improve heart function."

"Peptides are very hard to find… I've had patients who come here on trips will get a vial when they went because it's legal here versus where they're coming from."

NAD, Energy & Longevity with Maite Brines von Melle Oct 23, 2023

Angela is joined by Maite Brines von Melle, an expert in helping people form new habits in the area of health and wellness. They discuss various topics related to optimising health and longevity, including the importance of NAD, the energy molecule, and its role in the body's energy cycle and DNA repair.

They also explore the interplay between women's hormones and NAD metabolism, as well as the impact of aging on the body and strategies for living a healthier life. Additionally, Angela and Maite delve into the significance of liver health, the benefits of supplements like glutathione and chlorella for detoxification, and the introduction of a new product called Glynac Plus, which combines glycine, NAC, and calcium alpha-glutarate to support blood sugar regulation and longevity

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The decline in NAD levels and estrogen during menopause can have a significant impact on women's health, including energy levels, brain health, heart health, bone health, and muscle health.
The Glynac Plus supplement combines glycine, NAC (N-Acetyl Cysteine), and calcium alpha-glutarate to support blood sugar regulation, liver health, respiratory health, and muscle and collagen building.
The Cell Shield supplement contains a patented form of glutathione, liposomal vitamin C, chlorella, and other ingredients to support detoxification, reduce inflammation, and promote overall liver health.
Blood sugar management is crucial for longevity and can be supported through supplements like GD-AID, which contains dihydroberberine, African seeds of paradise, chromium, Ceylon cinnamon, and bitter melon fruit extract. Proper blood sugar control can help prevent metabolic diseases and reduce inflammation in the body.

BEST MOMENTS

"NAD is absolutely crucial to stay healthy, really. It's important for energy levels, DNA repair, and lowering inflammation in the body."

"Glynac Plus is a powerful longevity cocktail that supports healthy aging, blood sugar regulation, and muscle health."

"Dihydroberberine in GD-AID is a safer option than metformin for blood sugar regulation, without causing gastric distress."

"Managing blood sugar and NAD levels are crucial for perimenopausal and menopausal women to transition to the next phase of life."

Bitesize: How to Step Into Your Most Empowered Future Self with Roxanne Saffie Oct 19, 2023

Angela presents a bitesize biohack from the past featuring Roxanne Saffie, in which they discuss the importance of creating a future self and cultivating a strong self-image and identity.

They provide three powerful questions that listeners can journal off to anchor themselves in their desired identity, emphasising the importance of clarity and making choices in alignment with one's values.

TAKEAWAYS

One of the first steps in creating a future self-image and identity is to identify your core values. This requires being honest with yourself and assessing whether your behaviours align with those values.
Another important question to ask yourself is what you truly want. It's essential not to limit yourself and to approach this question without judgment. Understanding your core desires can help guide your decisions and actions.
A key question to ask is how you are willing to show up every day to create the life you truly want to experience. This involves determining what you are willing to say yes to and what you are willing to say no to.
Saying no is often more important than saying yes. It's easy to be overwhelmed by numerous opportunities and obligations, but filtering decisions through your core values can help you make clear choices.

BEST MOMENTS

"There are no shoulds that live in the heart. The heart doesn't mess around. It's a sharp yes or a sharp no."

"Get into the relationship with your heart because the volume goes up and then that sharp yes and that sharp no becomes easier to operate from."

"Your heart is the truth. The more you listen to your heart, the more you are getting dialled into your authentic self."

"Saying no is so much more important than saying yes, because we're offered so many things all the time."

Fix Your Sleep For Good with Mollie Eastman Oct 16, 2023

Angela is joined by sleep optimisation expert, Mollie Eastman, who shares her personal journey of experiencing a sleep breakdown and how it led her to delve into the world of sleep. She discusses the common misconceptions and labels people have about their sleep, such as being a "bad sleeper" or a "night owl." , and focusses upon the fact that sleep is a skill that can be improved and optimised.

Mollie also explains the importance of sleep duration and the ideal range of seven to nine hours, highlighting the need to focus on sleep quality, including factors like sleep fragmentation and wake-ups during the night, providing insights into the causes of wake-ups during sleep and suggesting strategies to improve sleep regularity and alignment with circadian rhythms.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Consistency in sleep schedule is crucial for optimising sleep quality. Aim to wake up at the same time every day, plus or minus 30 minutes, to strengthen your circadian rhythm.
Wake-ups during the night are normal, but prolonged periods of wakefulness can indicate underlying sleep disorders such as sleep apnea. If you experience frequent wake-ups, it is important to get tested and seek appropriate treatment.
Consumer-grade wearables, including the Oura Ring, provide less accurate metrics for sleep stages compared to brain-based wearables. While they can give a general idea of sleep quality, it is important not to rely solely on these devices for accurate sleep stage information.
Light exposure plays a significant role in regulating our circadian rhythm. Aligning your exposure to natural light throughout the day can help regulate your sleep-wake cycle. This includes avoiding bright light exposure in the evening and ensuring exposure to natural light during the day.

BEST MOMENTS

"So what the do nothing method really looks like is that you are continuing to wake up at around your same wake up time."

"And this is very different with shift workers. They've got a whole other way of managing things."

"Hand and wrist-based trackers are making their best guess as it relates to sleep stages."

"It is normal to have a wake up or two throughout the course of the night. It starts to be problematic when we start to think about how long we are now awake."

Bitesize: The Invisible Barrier: Why You're Not Seeing Result with Fitness / Nutrition Oct 12, 2023

Angela discusses the invisible barrier that may be preventing individuals from seeing results in their fitness and nutrition efforts, explaining how stress, particularly high cortisol levels, can hinder weight loss and body composition goals.

Angela also focusses on the importance of managing stress and finding balance in order to optimise health and performance, touching on topics such as heart rate variability, nutrition strategies, and the impact of stress on various aspects of well-being

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Managing stress is crucial for achieving fitness and nutrition goals. High levels of stress can lead to elevated cortisol levels, which can hinder weight loss and body composition goals.
Adherence is key. Going on overly restrictive diets can be counterproductive and lead to cravings and rebound weight gain. It's important to create a calorie deficit through a combination of increased movement, exercise, and moderate calorie reduction.
Nutrient density is important for overall health and weight management. Focusing on consuming a variety of nutrient-dense foods, such as vegetables, fruits, lean proteins, and healthy fats, can support optimal health and help reduce cravings.
Prioritising goals and values and allocating energy accordingly can help prevent burnout and maintain overall well-being. It's important to allocate energy to different areas of life, including business/personal success, relationships, fitness, and recovery.

BEST MOMENTS

"When you're stressed, it can have so many factors on the way your physiology is operating. So one of the key things is stress is tightly linked and the hormone cortisol with your blood sugar regulation."

"What we need to do is to try to address the stress. Modern life is inherently stressful, but what we can do is start to bring in practices that are going to help us moderate that stress."

"That's why I'm not a big fan of going too restrictive, definitely not for too long. It down-regulates things that you don't want it to down-regulate, that you then feel like you're not enjoying life as much, because it's not much fun"

Fix Your Thyroid and Adrenal Health with Award Winning Dietician Nutritionist, Christa Biegler Oct 09, 2023

Angela talks to Christa Biegler, an expert in helping women with burnout and adrenal function. They discuss the importance of thyroid health and its connection to adrenal and sex hormone function, with Christa sharing her own journey of experiencing skin outbreaks and gut issues, which led her to discover the impact of stress on her thyroid and adrenal function.

The show also delves into the symptoms of thyroid dysfunction, such as fatigue, hair loss, and cold intolerance, focussing on the significance of mineral balance, particularly potassium and sodium, in supporting optimal thyroid function

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Thyroid health is crucial for overall well-being and metabolism. Symptoms of thyroid issues include fatigue, hair loss, feeling cold, and sluggish motility.
Adrenal function plays a significant role in thyroid health. When cortisol levels are elevated due to stress, it can lead to potassium depletion, which affects digestion, thyroid function, and energy levels.
Fasting and under-nourishing the body can worsen adrenal and thyroid function. It is important to prioritise nourishing foods and avoid extreme fasting practices, especially if already depleted.
Adding mineral-rich foods to the diet, such as potatoes with skin, avocados, and bananas, can help replenish potassium levels and support overall mineral balance.
Lifestyle behaviours that promote balance and support adrenal, sex hormone, and thyroid function include avoiding excessive stress, getting adequate sleep, managing inflammation, and incorporating holistic practices like mindfulness and self-care.

BEST MOMENTS

"So many of our issues are just hung up in control of wanting to control every outcome, everything”

"If you're fluctuating more than five pounds or two, two and a half kilos of body weight over a couple of days, that's inflammatory water weight that can be related to a bigger picture of inflammation."

"I think there's a mineral issue. And also from an energetic perspective, sometimes it's indicative that you're holding onto things that you need to let go of the most."

Bitesize Biohack: Nutrition for Happy Hormones Oct 05, 2023

Angela presents a special episode in which she discusses the changes that occur in women's bodies during perimenopause and menopause, focussing on the way women store fat shifts, with a transition from storing fat around the hips and thighs to storing more around the abdominal area.

Angela stresses the importance of proper nutrition, exercise, sleep, and stress management in combating these changes, as well as the potential benefits of hormone therapy, such as estrogen and progesterone, for bone density and cognitive function.

TAKEAWAYS

The distribution of body fat changes in women as they go through perimenopause and menopause. Initially, women tend to store fat around the hips and upper thighs, but as they approach menopause, fat distribution shifts to the abdominal area, which can be more risky due to the presence of visceral fat.
To combat changes in body fat distribution during perimenopause, it is important to focus on the right nutrition, exercise, sleep, and stress management. Hormone therapy, such as estrogen and progesterone, can be helpful for bone density and brain fog, but it is not a magic solution. Overall lifestyle factors play a significant role in reducing body fat effectively.
Progesterone production can be affected during perimenopause due to anovulatory cycles, where ovulation does not occur. This can result in lower progesterone levels and potential symptoms of estrogen dominance. Natural ways to support progesterone production include incorporating maca into the diet (unless there are thyroid issues) and managing stress to maintain good adrenal function

BEST MOMENTS

"The distribution of that body fat is changing… So how do you combat that? It's going to be through the right nutrition and the right exercise and managing sleep and stress."

"Taking hormones, like hormone therapy in terms of estrogen and progesterone, is super helpful for bone density and brain fog, but it's not like a magic elixir."

"Your microbiome, contained within our gut, is a mixture of healthy and less healthy gut bacteria… There is a specific group of bacteria that can cause or release something called beta glucuronidase."

"If you're in perimenopause and you're not ovulating every single month, you're producing less progesterone. This can make you more prone to things like anxiety and symptoms of estrogen dominance."

Farm to Table: What's in Your Food with Natalie Kovarik and Tara Vander Dussen Oct 02, 2023

Angela is joined by Tara Vander Dussen and Natalie Kovarik, for a very special episode in which they discuss various aspects of farming and food production, focusing on dairy farming, beef, and poultry.

They address common concerns and misconceptions surrounding dairy products, such as the inflammatory effects of dairy and the presence of hormones, and the differences between grass-fed and grain-fed beef, the labelling confusion in the poultry industry, and the impact of different farming practices on the environment, emphasising the importance of food choice and transparency, encouraging listeners to make informed decisions based on their own preferences and values.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

There is ongoing research suggesting that milk does not cause inflammation, but the effects may vary depending on factors such as added sugars.
Hormones naturally occur in dairy products, but the concern is more about added hormones. In the United States, RBST is no longer used in milk production.
Homogenisation is a process that breaks up the cream in milk to create a consistent texture. Non-homogenised milk may require shaking before consumption or may have cream that rises to the top.
Grass-fed, grass-finished beef may have higher omega-3 content compared to grain-finished beef. However, the omega-3 content in milk is generally low, regardless of the type of cow or diet.
Food labelling can be confusing, and it is often more helpful to directly source food from local farmers to ask questions and gain transparency about the farming practices.

BEST MOMENTS

"There is a lot of new research that is really positive in milk, not causing inflammation, depending on, you know, are you adding, you know, sugar to it as a chocolate milk, all these different things that you can or cannot do."

"I think if you have the means and access to supporting local and buying direct from the farmer, I think that's kind of the point, right? Cause then you can ask all those questions."

"I think sometimes we get so in the weeds about the conversations of, you know, like you said, Omega threes versus Omega sixes. And, um, and we kind of lose sight of the big picture, which is, you know, meat is one of the most, um, milk to, you know, whole, whole animal proteins are one of the best things we can put in our body."

"So there's a lot, I think when it comes to the environment part, that isn't necessarily true about, um, practices. And then also I think we're really, really losing sight of, um, what are, what actually happened to our bodies."

Bitesize Biohack: How To Be More Resilient, Calm & Focussed Sep 28, 2023

Angela presents a biohack edition featuring Eliza Kingsford from episode 261, exploring the profound impact of our nervous system on our thoughts, emotions, and actions, emphasising the importance of being in a regulated state to access a flow state and enhance creativity. Eliza explains that carrying a disregulated nervous system into a task or activity can hinder productivity and lead to distractions like food, scrolling, or checking email. By recognising and understanding our own nervous system states, such as safety and connection, fight or flight, and shutdown, we can better navigate our reactions and behaviours.

Our nervous system plays a crucial role in our thoughts, feelings, actions, and creativity. Being in a flow state requires a regulated nervous system.
If we carry a disregulated nervous system into a flow state, it will hinder our productivity and creativity. Disregulation can lead to engaging in shallow tasks or seeking distractions.
Recognising and being aware of our nervous system is essential. It drives our behaviour and how we interact with others. Different cues can activate different states in our nervous system.
Mapping out the flavours of our nervous system can help us understand our own unique states. This involves describing what makes us feel safe and connected, as well as what activates our fight or flight response or leads to shutdown.

BEST MOMENTS

"Being in a flow state requires a state of nervous system regulation."

"If you carry a disregulated nervous system into that state, it's not going to be productive."

"No one is immune to this. We all have a nervous system and all of them are picking up on cues all day long."

"It's just getting to know what's the state of your system, right? And bringing in as much description as possible to be able to describe that."

Glucose Tolerance, Fasting & Radiant Health: Unlocking the "Peacock Effect" with Chris Masterjohn Sep 25, 2023

Angela welcomes Chris Masterjohn, an expert in nutrition and health, to discuss the importance of getting nutrients from whole foods and the limitations of relying on fortified processed foods.

Chris particularly focusses upon the need for a well-rounded diet that includes proteins, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals from a variety of sources, and addresses the misconception around hydration, explaining that people should drink water when they're thirsty and not worry about arbitrary guidelines. Chris and Angela also delve into the topic of blood sugar spikes and the individual variability in response to certain foods, the importance of context, such as glycogen depletion and exercise intensity, in understanding glucose tolerance.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Focus on getting nutrients from whole foods: The first rule of nutrition is to try to get all your vitamins, minerals, proteins, fats, carbohydrates, and calories from whole foods. Avoid relying on fortified processed foods.
Consider individual needs and variations: Everyone's nutritional needs are different, and factors such as genetics, lifestyle, and health conditions can affect nutrient requirements. It's important to listen to your body and adjust your diet accordingly.
Don't be afraid of blood sugar spikes: Blood sugar spikes after consuming certain foods are not necessarily a cause for concern, especially if you are healthy and have no glucose intolerance. Avoiding foods that cause spikes can actually lead to glucose intolerance over time.
Consider glycogen depletion and exercise: The glycogen stores in your body can affect your glucose tolerance. Intense exercise that depletes glycogen, such as zone two running, can improve glucose tolerance. Rest days and different types of workouts can also impact glycogen levels.

BEST MOMENTS

"There's no better way to make yourself glucose intolerant than to not eat things that spike your blood sugar."

"You shouldn't need to think about it. Your hypothalamus does that unless it's damaged."

"If you're not getting a negative symptomatic response to it, you don't want to regularly spike your blood sugar to 200, but you can afford to do it again and see what the trend is."

"There's no better way to make yourself glucose tolerant than to eat things that spike your blood sugar."

Bitesize: Intermittent Fasting For Women, Effects on Hormones & Longevity Sep 21, 2023

Angela discusses the benefits and misconceptions surrounding fasting, beginning by explaining why someone might consider fasting, such as flipping the metabolic switch from using glucose to ketones as fuel, increasing energy levels, improving brain cognition, and aiding in weight loss.

Angela also talks about the fact that fasting can help preserve muscle and enhance autophagy, the cellular recycling process.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Fasting can help switch the body from using glucose as fuel to using ketones, leading to benefits such as increased energy, improved brain cognition, and mental focus.
Fasting can help reduce overall calorie intake, but this may not be the case for women due to differences in appetite regulation.
Fasting can help preserve muscle mass, unlike traditional calorie restriction, which can lead to muscle loss and a decrease in metabolism.
Fasting can enhance autophagy, the cellular recycling process, but full cellular autophagy typically requires fasting for at least 24 hours or longer.
The effects of fasting differ between men and women, with men experiencing improvements in insulin sensitivity, lipid profiles, memory, and cellular autophagy, while women may not see the same benefits and may even experience negative effects such as increased oxidative stress and disrupted sleep

BEST MOMENTS

"Many of the benefits that you've probably heard across social media are things like you're going to have higher energy, you're going to feel like you get better brain cognition and mental focus."

"Fasting in general is going to work probably better for women who have a lot of excess calories that they need to lose. They have a lot of stored calories in their body that they can tap into."

"In men, we saw a positive impact in LDL cholesterol. In women, we saw no shift in LDL cholesterol."

"There was minimal to no effect on autophagy, and there was what we call enhanced sympathetic activity."

How To Go From Mentally and Physically Broken To Financially Free Living Your Dream Life with Morgan T Nelson Sep 18, 2023

Angela welcomes Morgan T. Nelson, a life and business strategist who achieved financial freedom at the age of 23. Morgan shares his inspiring journey from a troubled past filled with drugs and depression to creating a life by design.

Morgan also discusses the power of visualisation, belief, and making a 100% commitment to one's dreams, allowing you to begin overcoming obstacles on your way to success.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The people you surround yourself with have a significant impact on your success. Choose to be around individuals who have similar goals and values.
Determine the vehicle that will help you achieve your goals, whether it's starting a business, investing, or improving your health. Choose a vehicle that aligns with your vision.
Action is crucial in turning your vision into reality. Take consistent and intentional steps towards your goals, and be willing to adapt and overcome obstacles along the way.
Don't settle for 99% commitment. Give your goals and dreams your full commitment and effort. When you are fully committed, you will be more likely to achieve success.

BEST MOMENTS

"If you surround yourself with people that have a similar goal, financial freedom, success, health, if you want to get the best health of your life, you're sure as hell not going to go and make friends with everybody down at the local pub."

"All beliefs are completely made up. So if we're going to make up beliefs, why not believe in yourself?"

"Humans, when they're absolutely clear on their outcome, they will just use their own problem-solving skills and quickly figure out the way around the obstacle and get to the right outcome."

"The second time when they weren't clear on their outcome, the obstacle became the problem and it took them out of the game. They got distracted."

Peptides, BioRegulators and Reversing Biological Age with Nathalie Niddam Sep 11, 2023

Angela welcomes Nathalie Niddam, an expert in longevity and anti-aging, to discuss the fascinating world of bioregulator peptides, and who shares her journey into the field of anti-aging and the importance of optimising health and slowing down the aging process, diving deep into the foundational elements of sleep, stress management, nutrition, and exercise.

They also focus upon bioregulator peptides, specifically the pineal gland bioregulator with Natalie explaining how these peptides work as epigenetic switches, signalling the body to produce proteins that restore form and function to tissues, glands, and organs.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Bioregulator peptides, have shown potential in slowing down and reversing the aging process.
These peptides are naturally occurring in the body but decrease with age and stress.
Bioregulator peptides can help restore form and function to tissues, glands, and organs.
The effects of bioregulator peptides may vary depending on the individual and their specific health goals.
It is important to address other factors such as diet, stress management, sleep, and underlying health issues in conjunction with the use of bioregulator peptides for optimal results.

BEST MOMENTS

"Bioregulator peptides are essentially epigenetic switches that flip on genes that signal a tissue gland or organ to produce proteins that help to restore form and function to that tissue gland and organ”

"Epitalon or any of those other names is the pineal gland bioregulator… It helps with bone density, it helps them with their immune system, it was supportive of a whole bunch of foundational aspects of health."

"I've seen women who, for whatever reason, stopped having a cycle. I've seen them get their cycle back by applying both the pineal gland and the ovarian bioregulator."

"The first study he did was with 60 to 74 year olds, and he followed them for 12 years… The group that got the bioregulator had a 30% lower rate of all-cause mortality than the group that only got the polyvitamins."

Bitesize Biohack: 5 Key Biohacks for The Best Skin, Hair and Nails with Rachel Varga Sep 07, 2023

Angela presents a portion of her interview with Rachel Varga, in which they cover five key aspects: air, water, lighting, electromagnetics, and detoxing. Rachel stresses the importance of reducing stress and implementing cold therapy, sleep, saunaing, grounding, and clarifying techniques, as well as specific biohacks such as red light therapy, peptides, sunlight exposure, and fresh air.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The five key biohacks for improving hair, skin, and nails are: reducing stress, cold therapy, sleep, saunaing, and grounding.
Air purification in the home is important to remove mould, VOCs, and other pollutants that can cause skin issues.
Drinking reverse osmosis or distilled water is recommended, as tap water may contain harmful substances.
Structuring and hydrogenizing water can make it more bioavailable and provide antioxidant benefits.

BEST MOMENTS

"Dirt, debris, pollution, mould, when they sit on the skin, actually creates oxidative stress and accelerated aging."

"LEDs penetrate 100 nanometers deeper in the skin than what we get outside. So I postulate hair loss, facial pigmentation, accelerated aging, circadian rhythm and balancing."

"The eyes are the first area of the face to show signs of aging. That's why eyelid surgery is very popular for reducing excess footing to the upper lower eyelids for the face to age."

The Intersection of Biology, Longevity and Human Consciousness with Beth McDougall M.D Sep 04, 2023

Angela is joined by Dr. Beth McDougall, a medical practitioner with a unique perspective on biology, physics, and human consciousness.

Dr. McDougall shares her personal healing journey and discusses the importance of mitochondrial health in overall well-being and longevity. She delves into the science of hormone therapy, particularly for women in perimenopause and menopause, emphasising the need for individualized approaches, as well as exploring various energy medicine treatments, such as red-light therapy, pulse electromagnetic field therapy, and resonance biofeedback therapy, which aim to optimise mitochondrial function and promote overall vitality.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The health of our mitochondria is fundamental to our overall health and aging process. Dysfunctional mitochondria can lead to diseases and aging.
Hormone therapy should be individualised based on a woman's symptoms and needs during perimenopause. Some women may benefit from progesterone supplementation, while others may not need it.
Red-light therapy and pulse electromagnetic field therapies can help optimise mitochondrial function and improve overall health and vitality.
Resonance biofeedback therapy can identify and correct aberrant energetic signatures in the body, promoting balance and well-being.
It is important to listen to your body, understand your unique energetic signature, and take steps to optimise your energy and vitality as you age.

BEST MOMENTS

"The health of our mitochondria and how much energy our mitochondria can produce is really fundamental to the health of ourselves and our body."

"So many of us are not fully embodied, maybe because of the experiences we've had and kind of the collection of the un-metabolized emotional signatures in the body."

"If you tune into it, often that there's something that will be communicated. And then you've learned what you needed to learn from that. And then you can let it go."

"The therapies and the technologies in the kind of biohacking, bio-optimization space are really geared toward improving mitochondrial health."

Bitesize: Toxins, Detoxification and Women’s Health - with Dr Jill Carnahan Aug 31, 2023

Angela interviews Dr Jill Carnahan, who shares their personal journey of dealing with the impact of toxic chemicals on their health and highlights the alarming increase in the number of chemicals introduced into our environment each year, with little regulation or testing by authorities.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The exposure to toxic chemicals, such as glyphosate, is a major contributor to modern illnesses, chronic conditions, autoimmunity, and cancer epidemics.

The regulation and testing of chemicals in the environment, especially in the US, is inadequate, leading to the introduction of hundreds of thousands of new chemicals each year.

Genetic predispositions, combined with environmental factors like chemical exposure and dietary choices, can contribute to the development of diseases such as cancer and Crohn's disease.

BEST MOMENTS

"This is the elephant in the room of our modern illness, our chronic conditions, our autoimmunity, our epidemics of cancer."

"We're all swimming in toxic soup."

"If you're not actively thinking about ways for your environment to have clean air, clean water, clean food, then you're behind the eight ball."

The Secrets to Self- Mastery for Success and Abundance with Dr John DeMartini Aug 28, 2023

Angela is joined by the great Dr John Demartini, a renowned expert in the science of success and manifestation. John shares his journey from being a struggling surfer with learning difficulties to becoming a highly respected teacher, researcher, and author.

Dr DeMartini especially focusses upon the importance of aligning one's purpose with life’s highest values and how this can lead to achieving goals and living a more fulfilling existence, thereby providing the inspiration required to manifest success.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Finding and aligning with your highest values and purpose is crucial for achieving your goals and living a fulfilling life. It is important to prioritise your life and focus on what truly matters to you.
Having a clear vision of what you want to achieve and visualizing it in detail can greatly increase the probability of manifesting it. The more vivid and detailed your vision, the more likely you are to take action and make it a reality.
Continuously refine and polish your vision as you gain more clarity and details. Start with what you know and let it grow, filling in the gaps as you go along. Visualise the desired outcome and focus on the specific actions and steps needed to achieve it.
Delegate lower priority tasks and focus on the highest priority actions that align with your purpose. This allows you to make the most of your time and energy, both in your personal and professional life.
Intrinsic drive and inspiration are more powerful than external motivation. When you are aligned with your purpose and values, you don't need external motivation to take action.

BEST MOMENTS

"The body must be directed by the mind and the mind must be guided by the soul in order to maximize human awareness and potential in life."

"Whatever you think about, whatever you visualize, whatever you affirm, whatever you feel, whatever you write down and whatever you plan and whatever you take actions on becomes your reality."

"The highest value, which Aristotle in his time wrote about and called it the telos, which is the end in mind, and Hartman called the most non-derivative value, the most intrinsic value, the thing that we feel is a calling in life, is that highest value."

"Motivation is a symptom, never a solution for mastery of life. Intrinsic drive is way more powerful."

"The innermost dominant thought definitely becomes your outermost tangible reality."

Bitesize: Finding Your Authentic Self with Dr John Demartini Aug 24, 2023

In a preview of her upcoming interview with Dr John DeMartini, Angela and her very special guest discuss the power of authenticity and living in alignment with our highest values. Dr. Demartini believes that motivation is a symptom of not being authentic, and that when we are living in alignment with our values, our body and mind flourish. He also highlights the importance of exemplifying what we teach and finding joy in doing what we love.

VALUABLE RESOURCES

The power of our thoughts: The transcript emphasizes the belief that what we think about, we become. Our thoughts and focus determine the direction our lives take.

Authenticity and congruence: The importance of being true to oneself and living in alignment with our values is highlighted. When we are authentic and congruent, we are naturally motivated and driven to do what is meaningful to us.

The body's feedback: Our bodies provide feedback through physiological symptoms to guide us back to authenticity. Every symptom is seen as a way for the body to try to get us back on track and living in alignment with our true selves.

BEST MOMENTS

"The highest value you spontaneously do, you don't have to discipline yourself to do it."

"Motivation is a symptom. If you need motivation, you aren't being authentic."

"When we are authentic, the doors of opportunity reward it. People get literally the synchronicity start lining up for opportunities."

The Dark Side Of Biohacking and Human Consciousness – with Teemu Arina Aug 21, 2023

Angela is joined by Digital Transformist, Optimal Human Performance Specialist, Best-selling Author & Biohacker,Teemu Arina, for an eye-opening discussion about the dark side of biohacking and the unconventional topic of the health and wellness industry.

Teemu challenges the notion of constant optimisation and perfection, suggesting that many people in this industry have unresolved traumas or underlying issues that led to their health problems in the first place, and highlights the dangers of extreme behaviours and the need for balance and self-reflection in the pursuit of health and wellness.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The health and wellness industry often focuses on perfection and optimization, but it is important to recognize and address the underlying traumas or unresolved issues that may have led to health problems in the first place.
Many health influencers and experts in the industry are wounded healers who have overcome their own health issues and now dedicate their time to helping others. However, there can be a mismatch between their public persona and their true selves, leading to feelings of loneliness and inauthenticity.
Extreme biohacking practices, such as strict diets or excessive exercise, can become control mechanisms and addictions that replace previous unhealthy coping mechanisms. It is important to find a balance and address the root causes of health issues rather than relying solely on extreme measures.
Personal narratives and identity play a significant role in how individuals approach health and wellness. It is important to examine the stories we tell ourselves and others about who we are and what we value, as these narratives can shape our behaviours and choices.

BEST MOMENTS

"The whole health and wellness industry is quite interesting. The way how I see it is that people have some kind of trauma or unresolved things that often led to the health problems in the first place."

"But what if there's a mismatch between who you are, actually, really, and the persona or the avatar or the illusion you created? That can be a pretty lonely place."

"We have all these biohacking gurus, like, you know, I don't want to say names, but if you take, for example, Dave Asprey, who's been kind of the leading figure of this whole movement, what he has been all about is better, faster, stronger."

"So what happens there is like, you are, you have less wiggling room, you have less kind of buffer, in a sense, when you're burning the candle from both ends"

Bitesize Biohack: Creatine - The Brain Boosting & Body Composition Hero Supplement Aug 17, 2023

For this special Bitesize Biohack, Angela explores the benefits of creatine for women's health. While traditionally associated with men and bodybuilders, creatine has numerous advantages for women, particularly during the menstrual cycle, perimenopause, and postmenopause.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Creatine is a molecule that is important for producing ATP, the energy currency of the body. It is primarily made in the liver and is important for skeletal muscle health, bone density, gut health, and brain health.
Women have less storage capacity for creatine compared to men, so supplementation can be beneficial for women. Taking 3-5 grams of creatine daily can help build up creatine stores over a period of four weeks.
Creatine loading phases, where higher doses of creatine are taken for a short period of time, can be done to quickly increase creatine stores. The best time to do a loading phase for women is during the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle, when estrogen levels are higher.

BEST MOMENTS

"Creatine is very important for us to produce ATP, which is the energy currency of the body."

"Creatine helps to support bone density and muscle protein synthesis, making it beneficial for women struggling with metabolic issues and excess body fat."

"Creatine can be really supportive in times of stress, as it helps to provide higher levels of ATP for the brain, improving memory, cognition, and attention."

The World's Most Recognised Transformation Expert: Fitness, Biohacking, Productivity and Lifestyle Optimisation - with Kris Gethin Aug 14, 2023

In this episode, Angela sits down with Kris Gethin during a special live event to discuss strategies for optimizing productivity and overall well-being. They start off by talking about their experience with NAD+ supplementation and its benefits for energy production and cellular health. They also delve into the importance of setting boundaries and prioritising personal goals to avoid feelings of guilt or regret.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

NAD+ supplementation: NAD+ is a vitamin B3 derivative that depletes as we age. Supplementing with NAD+ can help improve energy production and cellular function.

Setting boundaries: It is important to set boundaries in order to prioritize your goals and avoid feeling regret or guilt. Saying no to things that don't align with your goals is essential for maintaining focus and achieving success.

Precision medicine: Tailoring your health and wellness practices to your individual needs and circumstances is key. Factors such as sleep, inflammation, and overall health can affect how much NAD+ your body utilizes, so it's important to adjust your supplementation accordingly.

Balancing productivity and enjoyment: It's crucial to find a balance between being productive and enjoying life. Prioritizing self-care, alone time, and relaxation is just as important as working hard and achieving goals.

Optimising training for endurance and strength: When combining endurance training with strength training, it's important to find a balance. Lowering the volume of weight training and focusing on compound exercises can help prevent overtraining.

BEST MOMENTS

"Knowledge without mileage is bullshit."

"Don't give away your life. Enjoy it."

"The more muscle you hold, the more calories you require."

"Recovery always dictates performance."

"Ice bath is everything for me, purely for mental stability."

Angela is joined by Dr Clare Bailey to talk about the benefits of olive oil and how to reduce your blood sugar in order to promote weight loss and help to reverse Type-2 diabetes.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

One you reach a state of ketosis, you're burning fat rather than sugar. Once you get your sugars down you will feel better and more alert.
Take a piece of string and cut it to your height - fold it in half, wrap it around your middle, and the double string should meet at the end. This is an easy test for height vs weight.

BEST MOMENTS

'You're burning fat rather than sugar - that's the key switch'

Cutting Edge Neuroscience: How To Clean Up Your Mental Mess with Dr Caroline Leaf Aug 07, 2023

Dr. Caroline Leaf discusses the difference between the mind and the brain, shedding light on a commonly misunderstood concept regarding the difference between them: that the brain is a physical substrate, while the mind is the activator of the brain. The mind is our aliveness, our life force, that enables us to think, feel, and choose.

Dr. Leaf also shares her insights on how to optimise the mind-body-spirit connection and provides practical tools for managing mental health and rewiring the brain.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The mind and the brain are not the same thing. The brain is a physical substrate, while the mind is the activator of the brain.
The mind is present in every cell of our body, not just in the head. It extends beyond our physical body and interacts with the environment.
Mental health issues like depression and anxiety are not brain diseases or chemical imbalances. They are signals from the non-conscious mind that something needs attention and processing.
We can rewire our brain and optimise our functioning through intentional and deliberate practices, such as the five-step process of the Neurocycle, which involves deconstructing and reconstructing thoughts and behaviours. Medication may provide temporary relief but does not address the root cause of mental health issues.

BEST MOMENTS

"Your brain is literally a physical substrate, very complex, obviously, it's often compared to a computer, but it's way more complex than a computer."

"If we date our brain is disintegrating, our body's disintegrating, nothing's happening, that's logical. But we're alive and having this conversation and your viewers and your listeners are able to process and respond and think and feel and choose about this information that we're sharing. And that is because of their mind."

"So our mind is our aliveness that activates the brain, and the brain and the body collectively together respond to the mind."

"The subconscious is like a doorway or a portal between the conscious mind and the non-conscious mind. So when we go to sleep, the conscious mind and the subconscious mind pretty much go to sleep as well. And the brain goes into an unconscious state, but the non-conscious is still functioning, which is why we have dreams and why we do process stuff."

Bitesize Biohack: Ending Anxiety, Depression and Bipolar with Dr Caroline Leaf Aug 03, 2023

Angela presents a preview of her upcoming interview with Dr Caroline Leaf, a communication pathologist, audiologist, clinical and cognitive neuroscientist, in which she discusses depression, anxiety and mental health.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The never-ending circle of diagnosis and symptoms is like a chicken-and-egg situation. Health professionals tend to tell us that one causes the other.
Depression and anxiety are not illnesses on the same level as conditions such as diabetes. Depression and anxiety are signals that something is not right in your life.

BEST MOMENTS

'You ask why you have an anxiety disorder - well, because you have those symptoms'

'Bipolar depression in itself is not a disease'

Flow States and Peak Performance Aging with Steven Kotler Jul 31, 2023

Steven Kotler is a New York Times bestselling author, an award-winning journalist, and the Executive Director of the Flow Research Collective, as well as being one of the world’s leading experts on human performance.

Steven joins Angela this week to talk about peak performance and longevity, specifically focussing upon how to optimise peak performance aging, as well as how to access flow states, and what factors may be holding you back from achieving them.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

A study has found that by accessing flow states, we can make ourselves 500% more productive and thereby achieve far more in far shorter a time.
Many think that in order to push through to a productive state, you have to steel yourself and find resilience. But this is a recipe for burnout.
Flow is the optimal state of consciousness where everything outside of your task just fades away - time dilates and we experience a freeze-frame effect. We get so sucked into what we're doing that time has no meaning.
As we move into flow, different things happen to the brain. A deactivation of the pre-frontal cortex takes place, which manipulates the way we experience time.

BEST MOMENTS

'When most people think about motivation, the only tool they reach for is grit'

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

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

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

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

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

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

Eliza Kingsford is a licensed psychotherapist and nervous system practitioner who helps clients identify and regulate their nervous system so they can get out of their own way, remove obstacles and overcome self-sabotage.

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

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

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'

Bitesize Biohack: Gluten, Glyphosate and Leaky Gut with Dr Stephen Gundry Jun 29, 2023

Angela shares a biohack special from her conversation with Dr Stephen Gundry, in which he talks about mitochondrial uncoupling and how it can be a short cut to upgrading your metabolism, plus the effects of glyphosate on a leaky gut, and why gluten itself may only be part of the problem.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Round Up can potentiate a leaky gut. It can turn people who are not gluten sensitive into people who are incredibly sensitive to gluten, plus it can kill of helpful bacteria.
People with measurable leaky guts also carry antibodies to the various forms of gluten, and to non-gluten proteins. When people have sealed their gut, all of these people lose their antibodies to gluten.

BEST MOMENTS

'Round Up can kill off the bacterial species that enjoy eating gluten'

'These people are uncoupling their mitochondria'

Game Changers: Empowering Women and Young Girls in Sport with Former Medalist and GB Rower, Baz Moffat Jun 26, 2023

This week, Angela is in conversation with former Team GB rower, Baz Moffat, about how we can support young girls of all ages in sport much more than we currently are.

Women In Sport recently discovered that almost half of all teenage girls end up disengaging with sport due to a lack of support and the pressures of school work, amongst other reasons, and in this show, Baz and Angela talk through ways in which we can stop so many potential sports stars from losing their sporting passions.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

43% of teenage girls who once actively engaged with, and enjoyed sport, are being sidelined in their teenage years, and being made to feel inadequate, compared to just 24% of boys the same age.
Working and training several times a day. Women are not small men, and go through far more in terms of physiological change. Over-stressing the system can be a challenge in itself.
Puberty happens at different ages for different girls. It doesn't all happen at the same time for everyone. Being given the help and time and space to understand their own bodies as they change is vital.
Guidance and support for girls around subjects such as proper sportswear and sanitary products is crucial, and should be done proactively at the beginning of every year, so as to establish support early.

BEST MOMENTS

'There is a complex barrier and some deep-rooted negative attitudes that are affecting girls' enjoyment of sport'

'There wasn't much space for me as an invididual'

'That was the big difference that lottery funding made - you're able to do more rest and recovery'

'Girls need to be given the chance to understand their bodies'

Reverse Your Biological Age - Peptides, Spermidine, NAD, and Other Anti-aging Biohacks Explained with Dr. Neil Paulvin Jun 19, 2023

Angela welcomes Dr Neil Paulvin back to the show, to talk about the latest in longevity science and transformational therapies - including biohacks such as spermidine, NAD and peptides - as well as much, much more.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Women need progesterone and oestrogen for muscle building and brain health, cognition, energy and more. Recent research has suggested that delaying menopause may work to serve health in these terms.
The key to longevity and long term health lies in the "Core 4" - sleep, exercise, diet and stress management. Circadian rhythm in particular can markedly affect the immune system.
For women in their forties, the decade in age itself is one of the busiest. Families are being raised if they've had children, career demands are at an all-time high. Energy demands are very high, and hormonal disruption is taking place. Mitochondrial health is crucial.
SS31 was founded by two scientists and hangs on the inner membrane of the mitochondria, and has been found to be a very good antioxidant. It also has been found to have an anti-inflammatory component, and can help with tendonitis.

BEST MOMENTS

'When we look at menopause, it brings with it potential adversities in terms of health'

'Sleep is when we recycle our hormones and increase the number of hormones we need'

'This has the most hallmark checks of any product in the world'

'I do believe in higher doses of both to get the real benefit of it'

Bitesize Biohack - Spermidine, Glycine and Peptides for Longevity Jun 15, 2023

Angela shares an invaluable biohack from her upcoming interview with Dr Neil Paulvin, about how you can begin the age-reversal process using peptides, supplements and biohacking techniques.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

In the US, when a product becomes prescription-only,, it becomes banned as a supplement because the dosage can no longer be regulated by the medical sector.
When considering taking Spermidine, you must be aware of any reactions to gluten that you may already experience. As in most cases, it's wise to consult your doctor before embarking on a course of this

BEST MOMENTS

The Science and Faith of Resilience - Unlocking the Secrets to Healing and Overcoming Life’s Challenge Jun 12, 2023

Angela is joined by Dr Jill Carnahan, a medical and functional medicine doctor, and author of new book ;'Unexpected: Finding Resilience Through Functional Medicine, Science And Faith'.

Dr Carnahan discusses her incredible story of overcoming breast cancer at the age of just 25, the importance of detoxification in today's modern world, and why loving yourself is the key to developing greater resilience.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

If we want to instil the next great generation of healers, then we must start by teaching them to respect their own basic needs of self-care and self-love.
Taking care of ourselves on a daily basis should be a top priority. When we nurture and protect ourselves, that's where healing starts.
Our souls are born with purposes and aims, and we don't always know what they are until we've experienced some kind of suffering or challenge.
If we re-frame challenge as an opportunity for growth, and take the tools we gain along the way, then we can create a deep abiding sense of hope and joy, despite what might be going on outside of us.

BEST MOMENTS

'How do you train a compassionate physician when you are teaching them to deny their basic needs?'

'In one instant I was changed from doctor to patient'

'What does she need from me today?'

'If you can change your lens, then all of a sudden you can have this deep abiding sense of hope'

Become The Hero Of Your Own Story with Simon Alexander Ong Jun 05, 2023

In this week's episode, Angela talks to Simon Alexander Ong, a personal development entrepreneur, about how you can live an extraordinary life and become the hero of your own journey by transforming your energy and awakening your imagination to what is truly possible.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

We will always face setbacks and challenges in life. The real measure of how successful we become is how we choose to respond to them.
When we create an amazing life path for ourselves we are actually helping others. We are inspiring them to want to do the same, and thereby better themselves.
When we procrastinate or have lots of time on our hands, we fall into the trap of working. In reality, if we create boundaries, we form habits and work around them, meaning that our time is better utilised.

BEST MOMENTS

'Even the best laid plans can often deviate'

'When we become the hero of our own journey, it doesn't just help us - it actually helps other people'

'Yes it's good to work, but we've got to be careful not to overwork'

'You may not always see it in the moment, but when you look back you'll realise that season gave you exactly what you needed at that moment'

Intermittent Fasting for Women - How to Fast Like a Girl with Dr Mindy Pelz May 29, 2023

We all know how to fast, but there are different rules for women and men. In this episode, Angela is joined once more by Dr Mindy Pelz who talks about the specific ways we should be using fasting as a tool, and optimising our longevity, hormone balance and energy levels.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Fasting works because we are tapping into a whole new system of energy generation and metabolism. It's remarkable that it's taken so long for this to become a better known fact.
As oestrogen drops, we become more insulin resistant, which is one of the main reasons why women over forty in particular, must know how to fast effectively.
A twenty four hour fast can kill bacteria in the small intestine. When we reintroduce food, there's less there to agitate and cause bloating.
If you are spotting, then it's a clear sign that progesterone needs your help. Progesterone needs to peak at a certain level in order for the whole uterine lining to shed.

BEST MOMENTS

'You're tapping into a whole other energy system'

'I can't believe we've gone this long in human existence without this conversation'

'Within twenty four hours, the gut can start to repair'

'These are the conversations we need to have'

Bitesize Biohack: Fasting and Perimenopause with Dr Mindy Pelz May 25, 2023

In a preview of the upcoming interview, Angela shares a bitesize biohack courtesy of Dr Mindy Pelz, in which she discusses the changes we experience during perimenopause and how we can optimise our fasting schedule to help with factors such as inflammation, insulin resistance and brain fog

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The first thing to realise when you're a perimenopausal woman, is that the lifestyle we lived during our thirties is not going to work when we reach later years.
When we reach our forties and see that our ovary hormones are beginning to retire, we must start to examine our lifestyle and adjust accordingly. Our estrogen goes up and down, and means that we will have days where we feel normal and days where we feel terrible.

BEST MOMENTS

'Women go roaring into their forties - all of a sudden their moods go crazy'

'The diet and exercise plan that kept us in great shape at 35 doesn't have the same effect at 45'

Optimizing Women's Fitness for Health and Longevity with Dr Andy Galpin May 22, 2023

Angela talks to Dr. Andy Galpin about improving health span alongside longevity, focusing specifically on women's health, including managing sleep, stress, nutrition and how physical activity is of vital importance. They also discuss the nuances of optimising fitness routines for women, taking into account the menstrual cycle and challenges during perimenopause and menopause.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

It is vital to manage sleep, stress, nutrition, and physical activity. By prioritising these key areas, we can set ourselves up for optimal health and longevity.
Spending time in nature or engaging in sports and activities that require reacting to external stimuli can help maintain balance over time. The next time you're feeling stuck in your routine, consider taking a hike or trying out a new sport.
Use subjective and objective measures: When assessing your health and well-being, it's important to use both subjective and objective measures. Dr. Galpin suggests using at least two of each to get a more comprehensive understanding of your overall health.
What works for one person may not work for everyone. It's important to try new things and stick to the ones that bring you results.

BEST MOMENTS

'You want to hit the big markers'

'People who spend too much time at max heart rate or close to that are going to have issues'

'What are the tasks my body needs to do to maximise longevity?'

'Your joints have to be able to handle movement continuously for 45 minutes'

Bitesize Biohack: Key Fitness Metrics for Longevity for Women with Dr Andy Galpin May 18, 2023

Angela shares a brief biohack from an upcoming episode with Dr Andy Galpin, in which he shares specific considerations we should be looking at when it comes to optimising longevity, and for balancing hormonal health.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

In terms of tasks we can perform to maximise longevity, look to exercise without breaks for at least 45 minutes at any pace, so long as movement is perpetual.
Your heart rate needs to be able to rise, sustained, and then brought back down. Strength is also required in not just grip strength but lower body in general.

Are Screens Slowly Destroying Your Sight? Blue Light Exposure and Eye Health with Dhruvin Patel May 15, 2023

Dhruvin Patel is an optometrist and founder of Ocushield, pioneering blight filtering technology so as to improve eye health and sleep, leading to a more fulfilling life in general.

Dhruvin talks to Angela about the choices we can make on a daily basis to ensure that we are not slowly and insidiously destroying our eyes and our health, and the profound long term effects that can result if we do not begin to take better care.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

With the rise of computer working, many have failed to consider the long term damage being done by blue light emitted through our displays. Ocushield technology can eliminate this risk.
UV protection is vital, even in places such as the UK where it's generally overcast. Just because it's cloudy, doesn't mean that plentiful UV light is not still being emitted.
Even though we may believe that we can see very well, weaker eyes are propped up by healthy ones, so ill effects may be masked until it's too late.
From a blue light perspective, it's wise to begin now in the implementation of filtering technology in schools, or we may be facing a health crisis en masse in the future.

BEST MOMENTS

'Many of us are not as aware as we should be about the things we do on a daily basis that may be damaging our eyes'

'UV light can contribute towards cataracts'

'I really want to help people - to make an impact'

'On average, children are using screens for upwards of six hours per day!'

ABOUT THE GUEST

Whilst studying Optometry at university, I launched the development of the initial product offering at Ocushield - blue light filtering technology that make eyes healthier, improves sleep and makes people happier.

Currently deploying a newly developed online eye screening test, accessible for the flexible workforce via a web URL.

Having received a development grant from City University of London, I built Ocushield into an internationally distributed, MHRA/FDA medically registered product that transformed hundreds of thousands of peoples eye health and quality of life.

From humble beginnings to building Ocushield, getting featured on Dragons' Den (and winning over Peter Jones & Tej Lalvani in the process), Forbes, The Guardian & USA Today - talking about eye health and blue light, it’s been an entrepreneurial journey full of ups and downs and yes a lot of lessons and joys.

At Ocushield, we have helped over 300,000 eyes in over 70 countries with our products to protect their eyes.

We envision a world aware of eye health in the times of the booming digitisation and the accompanying eye strain thus helping people develop healthier eyes and happier lives.

Bitesize Biohack - How to Harness Your Inner Power to Achieve Your Goals May 11, 2023

From her interview with Jim Steele about the value of persistence and achieving goals, Angela presents a bitesize biohack designed to push you to continue when you're on the path towards a greater aim, and how to harness the power of persistence in doing so.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

It's vital that you receive some kind of payoff as you make progress in anything, so as to motivate you to keep on pushing onwards.
You must have a certain belief system in the ability to reach your end goal. If the task is impossible to begin with, and we believe that, it's too tempting to stop.

BEST MOMENTS

'You've got to have a feeling of return on investment whilst in the process of moving forward. That's what keeps you moving forward'

‘Accept the adventure of what’s going on’

Adrenal Health, Hasimoto's, and Going From Surviving to Thriving with Dr Izabella Wentz May 08, 2023

Concentrating on optimal adrenal health can lead to some remarkable health benefits, including regaining energy levels. In this episode, Angela is in discussion with The Thyroid Pharmacist, Dr Izabella Wentz, who talks about her latest book 'The Adrenal Transformation Protocol', resetting the body's response through targeted safety signals, and the work she has successfully completed with over 3000 individuals to overcome bran fog, fatigue, irritability, sleep issues and anxiety.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

If you have coeliac disease and Hashimoto's, if you remove gluten from your diet, in some cases you can reverse the subclinical hypothyroidism and rid yourself of thyroid antibodies.
Genetic predisposition, leaky gut and a trigger are the three things that must have manifested for an auto-immune condition to be present.
When people are under a chronic stress response, their alignment with the circadian rhythm suffers greatly, and cortisol production might increase as a result.
People starting off on their journey are wise to eliminate problematic foods through elimination diets of food sensitivity tests.

BEST MOMENTS

'I wanted to know if there was anything I could do to make myself feel better'

'It's remarkable what an effect the environment can have upon our gene expression'

'Even without having coeliac disease, they feel better off gluten'

'I meet people where they are and try to give them strategies'

Cardio is Destroying Your Results - The Science on Optimising Nutrition & Fitness For Women with Holly Baxter May 01, 2023

Most of us want to be in good shape and improve our health span, not just our life span. In this episode, Angela talks to dietician and science educator, Holly Baxter, about the most effective ways in which you can get lean, achieve optimal health levels, and remain vibrantly full of energy in a way that is the most beneficial for your body and mind, and why excessive cardio might actually be holding you back.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

If we engage in cardio too regularly, and carry a calorie deficit, it can negatively impact the energy available for muscle recovery when we need it most.
The best way to increase lean body mass and reduce body fat is through incorporating a high protein diet and moderating caloric intake.
The latest research into fat loss seems to suggest that there are few advantages in diets that are high in carbohydrates and low in fat vs diets that are high in fat and low in carbohydrates.
Everyone is unique and has a bespoke set of requirements. The best coach or mentor will always prescribe an approach based on the individual's needs, and not a one-size-fits-all programme, as these rarely work.

BEST MOMENTS

'I definitely had a strong focus on how to optimise my physique for performance'

'It's important to recognise that everybody has a unique preference for different foods'

'What is going to govern the rate of weight loss is the degree of calorie deficit'

'You've got to learn about your client and meet them where they are at'

Bitesize Biohack - CBD, Stress and Fertility with Dr Dani Gordon Apr 27, 2023

Angela shares a clip form her interview with Dr Dani Gordon, a world-leading expert in CBD and medicinal cannabis, in which they discuss resiliency and how our mood, response to pain and trauma, inflammation, appetite and fertility can be affected.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

We have, as human beings, a system that naturally uses plant chemicals from the cannabis plant to help the brain and body balance itself.
Cannabis-based medicines are not prescribed during pregnancy, only because our understanding of how it affects the mother and the foetus during this time is still unclear.

BEST MOMENTS

'It deals with everything from our mood balance, to sleep'

'This system is the most important overarching body balancing system'

Younger Looking Skin: The Science of Reversing Aging with Rachel Varga Apr 24, 2023

Skin is an integral part of any high performance strategy, and with this in mind, Angela welcomes to the show this week, Rachel Varga, an international speaker and a five-time academically published award-winning author in the field of regenerative and aesthetic nursing.

Rachel discusses the ways in which we can biohack our way to healthy skin, the secrets of anti-aging, and how we can look and feel younger by embracing natural approaches.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Ensure you're using products that are free of certain toxins such as sulphates and artificial dyes. Also avoid substances that have been tested on animals.
The approach to changing up our product usage applies not just to the products we put directly onto the skin, but also a ore holistic range, such as soaps, cleaning products and detergents that have contact directly with us.
Blood flow is essential to having good skin. It carries oxygen and nutrients to the tissues, and also detoxes, carrying away metabolic waste products.
Many clinics are using counterfeit or low-quality lasers in order to perform skin procedures. Its always worth researching not just the specialists you hoe to visit, but the equipment they use.

BEST MOMENTS

'I'm a big fan of using pregnancy-safe, kid-safe products on myself'

'Skin cancer cells can leech into the body and create other issues'

'I would burn in about ten to fifteen minutes'

'If you want good skin you have to have good blood flow'

Bitesize Biohack: 3 Ways to Burn More Fat! Apr 20, 2023

Everyone wants to burn more fat and stay healthier, but what's the best way to go about it?

In this short, sharp biohack episode, Angela flies solo to tell you about three ways to dynamically reduce your body fat and set yourself up for a leaner life in general.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

We can often confuse our minds and bodies with a variety of diets, and get caught up in copying the success of others. We need to remember that certain diets don't work for everyone.
A great way to add protein into your first meal of the day is to add greek yoghurt with a small handful of almonds and raspberries or blueberries.
Look for ways to bring more movement into your day, even if it's just getting up more regularly. At places such as work, set small alarms and make sure you're doing something to raise your heart rate.

BEST MOMENTS

'All of us have that little bit we'd like to lose'

'Nice fibre, healthy fats and some proteins'

'If you employ these principles, you are going to burn more fat'

Sex, Hormones and Women's Health - Is this Normal with Dr Jolene Brighten Apr 17, 2023

Angela welcomes Dr Jolene Brighten back to the show to discuss her amazing new book 'Is This Normal? Judgment-Free Straight Talk About Your Body'. Dr Jolene also talks about sex, hormones, periods, and all things women's health.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Fundamentally, women should all be taught the basics about how our bodies work, and how we can keep on top of our health and wellbeing.
If our periods are so painful and uncomfortable that we are being forced to rearrange plans and our routines, then we should take it as a signal that things are not normal.
Our bodies are naturally looking to procreate and create babies even if mentally we are not on the same page. Even though we do not wish to engage in fertility, your body will still set itself up physically to do so as this is the optimal health position.
Mitochondria doesn't just ready our bodies for fertility by keeping our ovaries young. It also helps with other areas of our physiology, and can play a huge part in keeping dementia at bay.

BEST MOMENTS

'Never should you ever find yourself in a position where you don't have the basics you need about your body'

'The way most people learn is by going through it and actually doing it'

'These are things we're told are normal, but they're really early signs that there's an issue going on'

'Mitochondria is the power house to your cells'

Reprogram Your Brain to Achieve Any Goal with John Assaraf Apr 13, 2023

How can we take control of our brains so as to achieve any goal we desire? John Assaraf will be known to most people through his starring role in 'The Secret', as well as his series of neuroscience-based programs, books and consultancy work. In this episode, he joins Angela to talk about how we can train our brains and reprogram our way of thinking in order to maximise the gains we can make each day.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Society is gradually conditioning us to use less of our brains, by religiously mapping out what life should look like. We are endlessly complicated beings and our minds are able to achieve far more.
It's not enough to think that if we believe then we will achieve. We must add the law of GOYA, which essentially tells us that if we want something, then we have to do the right thing at the right time in the right order.
There is no more powerful motivator than vision. If we can truly see the points at which we wish to reach, then we are far more likely to achieve them.
We have 100 billion cells in our brains, all emitting a frequency. If we are energy and our thoughts and emotions activate a frequency, then we must consider whether we are tuning into chaos or coherence.

BEST MOMENTS

'We've become hypnotised by what society expects us to achieve'

'We don't want to force because force negates'

'Are we tuning into chaos or coherence?'

'You are the conductor. If you let the instruments dictate to you, then okay - suffer'

Bitesize Biohack: The Neuroscience of Goal Achieving with John Assaraf Apr 10, 2023

John Assaraf will be known to most people through his starring role in 'The Secret', as well as his series of neuroscience-based programs, books and consultancy work.

In this bitesize biohack edition, John discusses affirmations and how they are meant to work, and effective ways in which we can channel our brain into performing better and achieving more.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Many think that affirmations are simply a sentence describing something that is true. In reality, we are affirming in our minds - what we want to be true.
We should treat our brains like an orchestra with ourselves as the conductor. It is our job to quieten down the voices in our minds that are too loud at times, and raise up the voices that are too quiet.

BEST MOMENTS

'What if you just treated that part of your brain as an automatic sensor that's going to bring to you something to be aware of?'

'I have a brain. I am not my brain. My brain is like an orchestra'

Dr Michael Platt | Bio-identical Hormones and Optimising Adrenal Health Apr 06, 2023

Dr Michael Platt is the president of the Platt Wellness Centre, and one of the most well-known and highly regarded specialists when it comes to hormone replacement, successfully treating thousands of patients globally.

Angela and Dr Michael discuss hormonal imbalances, adrenal fatigue, the benefits of progesterone in modulating factors such as adrenaline, and how it can help to alleviate many symptoms in patients.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

People have varying degrees of adrenaline itself. It is a hormone and a neurotransmitter, known as the "fight or flight" hormone. But the true function of adrenaline is just to make sure that the brain has enough sugar to operate.
Adrenaline is a genetic marker. If someone has too much, then it means that one of their parents also had a surplus. It also appears in high levels among creative people.
The advantage of being in ketosis is that the body is already producing ketones. But if you are providing ketones through external means, there is no need to be in ketosis.
When women are pregnant the placenta puts out progesterone causing high levels. If the woman and the foetus can tolerate these levels, then it follows that normal people should be able to tolerate them also.

BEST MOMENTS

'Releasing adrenaline is actually a very rare occurrence'

'The body always wants to make sure that the brain has enough fuel to function'

'The brain uses glucose and ketones for fuel'

'Progesterone is a very safe hormone'

Tim Gray is the UK's leading biohacker, and the founder of the Health Optimisation Summit. In this short, sharp biohack episode, Tim shares a clever way to reduce stress, anxiety and the likelihood of panic attacks, by simply reconnecting the ground itself.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

When we have a process that promotes stress, it's helpful in any profession to have some kind of process that takes time, and serves to relax.
Simply standing on the grass serves to provide us with a free electron intake, that help stabilise cortisol, reducing if needed and increasing if needed.

BEST MOMENTS

'This is such an amazing hack for anyone with anxiety or panic attacks - stand on the grass and ground'

'It really does change the way you feel very, very quickly'

Supercharge Your Energy and Resiliency with Dr Molly Maloof Mar 30, 2023

Dr. Molly Maloof provides health optimisation and personalised medicine to high achieving entrepreneurs, investors, and technology executives. She is also the author of 'The Spark Factor', an essential and groundbreaking new book designed to help reverse the dimming of the spark we all feel during our younger years, when we feel as though we can take on any challenge.

Dr Maloof joins Angela to talk about the practical ways in which we can all revitalise the spark we lose sight of as we age, and lead a more resilient, fulfilling lifestyle.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Achieving metabolic flexibility is one of the most analysed challenges today. The main issue is that eating low or high carbs has a drastic effect upon insulin.
When you're burned out, your blood sugar levels will fluctuate wildly. Analysing hormones and keeping a check on our blood sugar levels will alert us to any issues incoming.
The air we breathe and the food we eat are all consumed to become substraits for our body's metabolism. Effecting optimal digestion is the key to achieving gut health, which is responsible for energy production.
Eating a vegan or vegetarian diet is beneficial in many ways, but we must always be aware that without testing and careful control, they can lead to nutrient deficiencies. Monitoring is essential.

BEST MOMENTS

'Burnout is such a difficult thing to turn around'

'It's low insulin output as a result of a dietary style that leads to less insulin output'

'Oestrogen is insulin sensitising'

'Peptides are certainly an interesting biohack that a lot of people are getting into these days'

ABOUT THE GUEST

As a physician and Stanford lecturer, Dr. Molly Maloof has spent her career providing personalized medicine services to high-performing technology executives, billionaire investors, Silicon Valley entrepreneurs, and Academy Award-winning actors. What she noticed is that women, specifically, were feeling the spark that once energized their lives beginning to dim. Not just metaphorically but in a measurable reduction in the energy output from their cells.

In response, Dr. Molly developed a science-backed program focused on mitochondrial health, used successfully by her patients, which offered lifestyle changes that target the unique biology of women and provide immediate and long-term benefits--now available in her book The Spark Factor. “The idea is steady gradual improvement, not perfection. The goal is to help get your spark back, so you can spend the rest of your life empowered, alive, mobile, and resilient,” she writes.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

When looking to optimising dopamine, combining with B Vitamins can lead to a greater generation of dopamine within the brain.
Bromantine can have profound effects upon stress and sleep deprivation, and can aid in relieving stress after the effects of overwork.

BEST MOMENTS

'We combine this with B vitamins, which can help with synthesis'

Depression, Detoxification and Mental Health - How Nutrition Creates Psychology with Barton Scott, including a look into Angela's Hair Tissue & Mineral Analysis Mar 24, 2023

Angela takes a deep dive into the results of her hair tissue and mineral analysis, in the company of biochemist and nutritionist, Barton Scott.

In the first of a series of shows dedicated to proving that we can ultimately take back control of our own wellbeing by first establishing the flaws in our physicality and using specialised means to correct them, by analysing Angela's very own results.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

We often say we are what we eat, but in many cases it's true. The nutrition we consume has a great impact on the moods we experience, and therefore helps to determine our personality.
Hair is the best way to look at the minerals contained in the body. The body pulls from places such as bone marrow and the elements it pulls show up in the hair, which grows out from inside the body.
When you take Vitamin D by itself, and you have a magnesium deficiency, it causes calcium to levels to raise, but also cause cell death in the brain.
The heart is a muscle that requires potassium to contract and magnesium to relax, and so both of these are essential for a healthy heart.

BEST MOMENTS

'Nutrition becomes personality'

'Hair is tissue, just like skin is tissue, just like organs are tissue'

'I've made it my life's mission to get myself well and inspire other people to do the same'

'I can changes someone's personality by changing their nutrition'

KEY TAKEAWAYS

When you're low, you search out methods of feeling better - whether that comprises stimulants or exercise.
Your nutrient levels have a direct impact upon the way you feel. This was proven for Angela when she was placed on a sodium drip, and instantly felt a sense of peace.

BEST MOMENTS

'I would have these incredible highs where I would feel like Super Woman'

'The bipolar swings correlate with swings in nutrition'

'The bigger the high the bigger the low'

Supercharge Your Energy, Focus and Flow (Part 2) - Mr Noots' Guide to Nootropic Stacks Mar 17, 2023

In the second part of her podcast about the brain, Angela talks once more to Mr Noots - brain health maestro and cognitive function specialist.

In this conversation, the discussion turns to ways in which you can harness the power of nootropic stacks to increase productivity, accelerate flow states and achieve results much faster.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

A lot of our neurological repair takes place when we sleep at night. This is why a good night's sleep is so vital to productivity.
Ingredients for products are always temperature controlled where possible until the moment of sale. While refrigeration is advisable due to its preservation qualities, it is not essential if products are used in a timely fashion.
Two new molecules have been discovered that can sustain dopamine levels in the synapse without signalling the brain to stop making dopamine.
The app has been designed to allow customers to order custom formulations, each balanced to provide a specifically tailored response or antidote to certain moods or conditions.

BEST MOMENTS

'The challenge is that once the drug is over, you fall off a performance cliff'

'We can formulate specifically for you'

'We need the joy of discovery'

'Go from frustration to problem solving. Go from being an a**hole to being a sweetheart'

Bitesize Chat: Trusting The Universe and Letting Go Mar 14, 2023

Angela revisits her conversation with Adam Parker, the executive wellness and performance coach, as well as creator of the Ideal Day podcast, in which they highlight the need to trust in the universe, and have faith in the belief that things can work out for the better.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

It's a universal law - sometimes referred to as the law of attraction - that what you put out into the world is what you receive in return.
Society conditions us to think logically, but the proof of the law of attraction is undeniable. Putting out good energy into the world does cause the same to come back to you - not always from the same sources.
More and more research extols the benefit of positive expectancy, but it has been misunderstood in some areas. The law of vibration is the primary law, and the law of attraction runs secondary to it.

BEST MOMENTS

'If we just let go sometimes, things can come much faster for you'

'Your beliefs do change over time'

'What you put out into the world is what you'll receive back'

Supercharge Your Energy, Focus and Flow - with Mr Noots - Part 1 Mar 10, 2023

Mr Noots is the chief product officer for Nootopia, dedicated to helping you to discover and unlock your neurochemical super powers through a pioneering range of products and guidance.

Mr Noots joins Angela today for the first in a two-part conversation around the ways in which we can accelerate our focus and flow, the brain itself and how it works, and the different compounds we can take to optimise its health at all times.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The higher our energy levels at the time, the more information we tend to process. If we read in bed at night, then many of us find ourselves falling asleep for this very reason - because our body's speed has reduced.
It's vital that women get blood tests and seek guidance where possible during pregnancy. It isn't a 9-12 month event - it's a process you go through for years afterwards.
Music is an incredible modulator of neuro-activity. It can help you to transition from one state to another in a short amount of time.
Nootropics help you to achieve operating states of focus, drive, love, chill, focus and performance. You can also combine the states to reach further different ones.

BEST MOMENTS

'We're not all playing lead guitar. You have to put all of the instruments together and play in unison in order for you to feel awesome'

'Sleep really is the foundation for optimal health'

'Don't be afraid to listen to your dreams'

'These are all states you can accomplish'

Bitesize Biohack: Sleep & Rebooting Your Brain with Mr Noots Mar 07, 2023

In a special teaser preview of an upcoming interview with Mr Noots - the chief product officer for Nootopia - the conversation centres around sleep optimisation, and particularly how to enhance the health of the brain and the liver, so that you can remain primed for high performance, as well as how to better enhance REM sleep.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

At night, our bodies perform a removal process - the brain shrinks and opens up around the capillary wall so as to allow spinal fluid to remove detritus.
Alzheimer's and dementia are not created in the brain from plaques. The plaques are created through liver function as a result of us not being able to go through the cleansing cycle.

BEST MOMENTS

'We need to look at detoxifying, naturally and organically, leveraging our body's own detoxification process so that we can get to the same levels of clarity that we had when we were eight years old'

'We've created a thing called dream optimiser, which dramatically amplifies REM sleep'

Hormones, Menopause & Anti-aging with Dr Sohère Roked Mar 03, 2023

This week's special guest is Dr Sohère Roked, who's joining Angela to dive deep into the subject of hormones, specifically when you might need to consider hormone replacement therapy, the differences between different forms of oestrogen and progesterone that you can use, and what the critical window is that you should look to when considering this type of treatment.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

If you are menopause, and a hormone imbalance has not been corrected properly, then treatments will not be as effective.
Hormones can account for a multitude of non-specific symptoms experienced by people - things such as fatigue, mood issues, aches and pains, headaches and general ailments.
There is an imbalance between the care offered to men and the care offered to women, that must be addressed. Men have procedures such as a vasectomy and are offered pain relief, while women have invasive procedures and are offered none.
From your early forties, it's worth tracking your hormone levels and the changes that take place will be made far more aware to you. Look at the moods you experience, as well as sleep cycles, heat levels, and focus levels.

BEST MOMENTS

'It can be quite worthwhile to look at your hormone balance'

'Hormones, in my opinion, are the foundation of health'

'It takes time to change a system'

'These days, starting HRT before menopause can be a good idea'

Bitesize Biohack: Hormones, Stress & Insulin Resistance Feb 28, 2023

This week's bitesize biohack comes courtesy of Angela's incredible interview with Dr Lara Briden which centred around stress, hormones, insulin resistance and sleep, as well as how these factors can impact metabolic flexibility.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

With insulin resistance, the cells in the body are not getting the energy they need. This is where the 25% reduction in brain energy during perimenopause can come from.
If you have a history of PCOS, then you likely have a history of insulin resistance because they often go hand in hand.
Fasting for too long, in conjunction with exclusionary diets such as the keto diet, can cause hormone disruptions.

BEST MOMENTS

'Insulin resistance is about having chronically elevated insulin'

'The brain needs to be able to burn ketones'

'Women under 35 - their hormonal system is a lot more sensitive to food signals'

'The goal is to feel well'

Weight Loss, Reversing Diabetes and Intermittent Fasting with Dr Clare Bailey Feb 24, 2023

Dr Clare Bailey is a GP and health columnist with extensive experience in helping people lose weight and improve their health through her groundbreaking work with diet and exercise, as well as being the co-author of 'The Fast 800' series of books.

In this episode, Dr Bailey discusses the ways in which you can reverse type-2 diabetes, and how you can improve your blood profiles and lose weight in a safe and effective way.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Visceral fat is the fat that accumulates as you put on weight, particularly if you eat a sugary and starchy diet, and wraps around the internal organs, affecting the liver and pancreas.
If visceral fat is developing, then you may well be developing insulin resistance. You might not be seeing it in your blood work, but visceral fat can provide an early warning sign.
Take a piece of string and cut it to your height - fold it in half, wrap it around your middle, and the double string should meet at the end. This is an easy test for height vs weight.
As with everything, there are healthy versions of fats and carbohydrates. The key is to identify the best versions and choose unprocessed.

BEST MOMENTS

'The fat gets stored within the organs and causes inflammation. Over time it causes insulin resistance'

'Your hormones change the way you want to eat'

'The earlier you turn these things back, the greater the benefit'

'There are so many nutritional benefits from good quality olive oil'

Bitesize Biohack: Ben Azadi| How to Achieve Metabolic Flexibility Feb 21, 2023

With the focus of the show currently on metabolic flexibility, Angela presents a biohack aimed at getting you there sooner. From her marvellous interview with Ben Azadi, the author of 'Keto Flex', we look at how you can use keto in the short term to develop metabolic flexibility, and how you become what you think about.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Keto flexing is the premise behind how humans have existed for all time. Every single one of our ancestors has gone through a keto diet in some way due to environmental requirements.
Many people get hung up on one diet, but the overarching principle is that metabolic flexibility is king. We're born this way, and yet we spend our lives trying to return to it.
If other people are the cause of your problems, then it's unsustainable to think that you can live a carefree existence. Ultimately, we are responsible for our life and happiness.

BEST MOMENTS

'It's about metabolic flexibility and using keto to achieve that'

'As soon as I said that I started to make better changes for my life'

'Keto is just one tool in the shed'

Nate Palmer is a coach, author, speaker and the host of the Low Carb Hustle Podcast and has over 13 years of experience in helping thousands of people get leaner and live longer

From the investments, you can make in yourself as part of your daily routine through focusing on energy, not weight loss, in this episode, Nate shares impactful strategies on how you can consistently optimise your energy and body composition results without tracking every single calorie

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The more time you spend digesting, especially carbs, the more you are spiking and dropping your blood sugar, a cycle that continues throughout the day
Pulling blood from your brain and extremities into your gut for digestion means you are never going to be operating at maximum efficiency or have 100% cognition
With this method you get better cognition, it all comes together when you learn to work with the body not against it
Carb backloading is putting all your carbs at the end of the day, to optimise your body’s natural storage
By allowing your body to burn through the carbs during the day replenishes your liver and muscle glycogen stores, optimising your body to use glycogen for energy, not fat stores, you are working with your body’s natural biorhythms
For women weight training is the way to work on bone density and hormonal function
The time you eat in the evening, dehydration and sleep quality all impact carbohydrate burn

BEST MOMENTS

‘It wasn’t just that I had amazing energy all day, my body started to finally do what I wanted it to do’

‘What gets measured gets managed you cannot change what you are not tracking’

‘Your body is amazing and able to detox itself if you give it some water and space’

Bitesize Biohack : Why Self Love Is The Key To Success Feb 14, 2023

Amanda Reilly explains what worthiness really is and why it’s so important to appreciate and honour yourself in your life

We own our self-worth it’s not something we have to earn but wanting to fit in can lead us to be chameleon-like, changing to fit in with the tribe, but self-love brings self-worth and means we can be uniquely who we are truly born to be

KEY TAKEAWAYS

We are not taught to value ourselves and our inner worth
We learn what things get us attention and love and what gets love taken away and we don’t want to get kicked out of the tribe
We are wired for connection so we become chameleons changing ourselves to fit in with the tribe and be accepted
We learn to condition ourselves trying to fit in, instead of uniquely being who we were born to be

BEST MOMENTS

‘We decide how worthy we are’

We are human beings, not human doings

‘I had to figure out who I was outside of the rules and the titles’

‘If you are full everyone around you benefits, if you are in lack you are in dehydration’

Eric Hinman| Cold Exposure, Sauna, Ultra Fitness And Longevity - With 5x Ironman Triathlete Feb 10, 2023

Eric Hinman is a 5x Ironman triathlete, content creator and social media influencer, sponsored by dozens of consumer brands. Some of Eric’s partners include Vital Proteins, GNC, Ten Thousand, Beam, Lane Eight, Chipotle, and Whole Foods.

Eric joins Angela this week to talk about not just the health benefits of practices such as cold exposure and sauna can be, but also how they can be socially beneficial places, and how to use the entire holistic approach to drastically improve your mindset.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Sauna is an incredibly beneficial practice, but while using it, communities can gather and grow, as fellow users take the time to not just improve their health, but communicate with like-minded people.
If it feels good to do something, then it likely means that it is doing your body and mind some good. Our physicality is trained to reward us when we improve in some way.
There's no reason why your body should not crave activity and action each moment of the day. Lulls in energy throughout the day generally mean that something isn't right with us.
Build self-care protocols that allow you to be the best version of yourself possible. Take something new, one step at a time, whether it's sleep, diet, recovery or training itself, and turn them into habits.

BEST MOMENTS

'There's such a cool community behind sauna'

'If it feels good doing something then it's probably good for you!'

'This has been a fourteen year journey for me'

'We all have a superhuman within us'

Bitesize Biohack: Create Your Vision Board AND Realise Your Dreams in 2023 with Dr Tara Swart Feb 07, 2023

Angela revisits her conversation with Dr tara Swart, who emphasises the value of vision boards, and why they might be the key to accelerating your goal plans for the year ahead.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

You have to do something small at least once a day in order to reach your goals. It's incremental, but you must move forward always.
Neuroplasticity states that your brain can grow and change at any age, at any stage, and at any mindset. This proves how amazing we are.
Once a year resolutions are doomed to fail as they require complete upheaval, whereas small wins acted upon constantly will retrain our brains.

BEST MOMENTS

'The science that underlies manifestation is neuroplasticity'

'For people who are very stretched in life, it's easy to let things go by the wayside'

'The next stage is deliberate practice'

Dr Steven Gundry | Unlock the Keto Code (Without Actually Going Keto) and Turbo-Charge Your Metabolism Feb 03, 2023

Dr Steven R. Gundry is an American physician and low-carbohydrate diet author, most famous for his book 'Unlocking the Keto Code'. He is also the founder of Gundry MD, dedicated to dramatically improving human health, happiness, and longevity through his unique vision of diet and nutrition.

Dr Steven joins Angela to talk about mitochondrial uncoupling, specifically how you can eat certain foods designed to turbo-charge your metabolism, effectively wasting calories, enabling you to support energy and vitality while supporting fat loss at the same time.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

There must be a mechanism by where mitochondria protect themselves. The best example of this is to see it as a kind of pressure cooker, where if the pressure reaches a certain point it explodes. This is prevented by a pressure valve, which is the same method used by mitochondria.
Ketones are often misrepresented as some kind of miracle fuel for the body that is desired by every part of physical form. But this is not true.
Free fatty acids go to the liver, and the liver converts them to ketones, which are very small acids that can get through the blood and be used as a fuel. This explains why, if you're hungry, you make ketones.
The polyphenol compounds were designed by plants to protect their mitochondria from sun damage. Polyphenols that we eat are very poorly absorbed, but we're beginning to see that they are the most important prebiotic for our gut bacteria.

BEST MOMENTS

'It's virtually impossible to get kids or adults to avoid carbohydrates for any length of time'

'Ketones are touted as some kind of miraculous fuel'

'These are consequences of that thermonuclear reaction - that coupling'

'Gut bacteria, in turn, make these compounds much more bio-available'

Bitesize Biohack: Protein, Collagen, Muscle & Metabolic Health with Dr Gabrielle Lyon Jan 31, 2023

Angela revisits her interview with Dr. Gabrielle Lyon to tell you how much protein you need to gain muscle and how much protein is needed to stimulate muscle protein synthesis. She explains whether you can do this on a vegan or vegetarian diet. Then, goes on to explain the role collagen plays and how it affects your tissue.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

A healthy gut biome can make enough essential amino acids.
You need to strategize your eating philosophy to fit in with the demands your body is under e.g. if you want to get lean again after a pregnancy you are going to have to eat differently than when you were pregnant.
Have a structured training plan that hits each body part twice a week. You can train fast, but you do need to refuel too.
Collagen does not do a lot for muscle, but it is still very beneficial in other ways. But you have to get the dose right. How to do this is explained in the podcast.

Dr Dani Gordon | Medical Cannabis, CBD and Resilience (stimulating forms of breath work) Jan 27, 2023

Dr Dani Gordon is a world-leading expert in CBD and medical cannabis, and joins Angela for a thought-provoking discussion about their benefits, when is the right time to use more stimulating forms of breath work, how to optimise your own wellbeing practices, as well as her authored works on the subject of CBD and resilience.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Resilience is the metric which shows us how well we bounce back from challenge. For people who are well in the first place, resilience can still be used to "bounce forward" - a building block for even more resilience.
Hemp CBD does not work as a sleep aid. In fact it can have the opposite effect, making people far more alert and awake.
Like anything else, if a substance is abused then it can hurt resilience instead of helping to build it. The key is to be aware and not let it overtake you.
There is evidence that legalising cannabis does not lead to an increase in misuse by the younger generation. This is something of a myth.

BEST MOMENTS

'It's about health and wellbeing resilience'

'We want to make people who are well already, bounce forward'

'It can wake up some of the parts of the brain involved with keeping us awake and alert'

'You actually need more stress to build resilience'

Bitesize Biohacks: Glucose, Insulin Resistance, Metabolic Flexibility and Your Microbiome with Dr Will Bulsiewicz Jan 24, 2023

Angela revisits her interview with Dr Will Bulsiewicz, and his vital messaging regarding glucose levels, and why keeping a keen eye on flattening the curve is important, as well as making sure that we have good insulin sensitivity.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The mechanisms of gaining free fat are through obesity, and also through our dietary intake.
The microbiome is related the way that we process our food, and is a part of establishing what our blood sugar is after a meal, and also what our blood fat is.
Even though we are genetically similar to family members, and live in the same environment, we sometimes share only around 35% of the same microbes.

BEST MOMENTS

'The microbiome is centrally involved in this equation'

'Many of the studies come from research that we have done'

'There's no one size fits all when it comes to nutrition'

Dr Tara Swart | The Science of Manifestation - How to Use Neuroplasticity and Universal Laws to Create the Life You Want Jan 20, 2023

Often we are searching for a way to connect the mind to the body in order to realise our full potential, and no one knows more about how to achieve this, than this week’s guest, Dr Tara Swart, the Chief Science Officer at Heights, pioneers of the Heights Smart Supplement, designed to boost brainpower and allow you take control of your health.

Dr Swart discusses the female brain and the unique challenges faced each day, as well as how we can optimise for a healthy brain, manage longevity and manifest your best life.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Men’s brains are also affected by the arrival of babies. Their oxytocin levels increase due to bonding, and testosterone levels decrease simultaneously, and even more so if the baby sleeps in the bedroom alongside the parents.
Your brain can grow and change at any age, any stage and any mindset. This scientific truth is neuroplasticity, and is the foundational element behind manifestation.
Women are proven to get more dementia than men, and while it is hard to prove why, schools of thought believe that it may be due to the diminishing sleep levels that occur during child-rearing.
Negative impacts from the perimenopause period in life can occur, but they aren’t necessarily a prerequisite. We should not assume that the effects are mandatory and must never tell ourselves that we can expect negative degradation when it arrives. It’s not always the case.

BEST MOMENTS

‘The science that underlies manifestation is neuroplasticity’

‘Women do get dementia more than men’

‘Breaking everything down into bite-sized chunks is a very important part of building in micro-habits that make your brain work better’

‘Positive expectancy is definitely the thing. It also helps to build resilience’

Bitesize Biohacks: Yoga, Mindfulness and The Female Brain with Dr Tara Swart Jan 17, 2023

In a very special preview of a soon-to-come conversation with Dr Tara Swart, she explains about the effects of sleep, the incredible potential of the female brain, and why we should think of yoga as a mindfulness practice.

Hear the full episode this Friday, 20th January 2023!

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Periods can be associated with lots of emotional dis-regulation which has to be learned to overcome during a crucial time in life.
One night's bad sleep can lead to IQ being lowered by 10% each day. Several nights' sleep missed can lead to the mental equivalent of being drunk.
Women get more dementia than men, and this has been tentatively attributed to less sleep during the child-rearing phase. It's more likely connected to the fact that women live longer.

BEST MOMENTS

'There are lots more ups and downs than there are for men'

'It hit me how much there is going on for the female brain'

'You really need to be in bed for seven to nine hours'

Bitesize Biohacks - How To Break Bad Habits and Create New Positive Habits That Stick - Insights From My 12 Month No Alcohol Experiment Jan 10, 2023

Angela shares her own personal experience from her twelve months with no alcohol, and talks about the most effective ways in which you can replace bad habits with positive new ones, ensuring that they stick for life.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

If you are hoping to change a habit and give something up, you need to consider what to replace it with and how this replacement can positively recreate the same experience for you.
When you have a habit, it is providing you with a benefit, even in the case of bad habits. It can come in the form of a feeling or a state of being.
It's sometimes easier to drop a habit or replace it, if we go all in. Dipping back in and out of a habit can make it much harder to give up

BEST MOMENTS

'When you give something up, it does create a vacuum'

'The experience is key'

'I find it easier to go all in'

Jim joins Angela to talk about his latest work, 'Unashamedly Superhuman', a book designed to designed to help you "Harness Your Inner Power and Achieve Your Greatest Professional and Personal Goals".

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The label of "Superhuman" is often reserved for a privileged few, and can feel a little unrelatable at times. But we all have that potential inside us.
No one ever instinctually believes that they are working to their full potential. We inherently know that we can always do better.
Specialists in endurance train their people to reward themselves through self-administering dopamine, a technique known as "thin slice recognition". It's about rewarding yourself each step of the way and not using the distant end goal as the prize.
When you enter a mindfulness practice, you build and develop centres of the brain that cause you to recruit the focus circuits. When you go into your day, you will find that this helps you to feel less distracted.

BEST MOMENTS

'I wanted to go beyond the cliches'

'Everyone believes there is something out there to be had'

'You need to reward the effort, not just the end goal'

'Optimising your health is the foundation of high performance'

No matter where we are in our fitness journey, we all need to focus upon optimising our body composition, and in this bitesize biohack, we look at insights from the marvellous Gabrielle Lyon, and how protein consumption might be the key to making sure our physical make-up is at its best.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

We should be consuming a minimum of four and half ounces of protein in order to his the best threshold. When we hit it, it triggers muscle.
Exercise and weight training in particular, must be tailored to the point where the resistance is enough to trigger the stimulus to the muscle tissue.

BEST MOMENTS

'It's really changing how we feed and rethinking what does it mean'

'You have to get that exercise component'

'It's like putting a key into a car and starting the car'

Best of 2022: Achieve Your Goals in 2023 and Step Into Your Most Empowered Future Self! Dec 30, 2022

In a special mini-series of episodes, Angela takes a look back at some of the highlights from the past twelve months, showcasing some of the most insightful wisdom and practical advice shared by her amazing gallery of guests.

In this second retrospective edition, Angela and her guests come together to talk about the way in which we can show up as our best selves for the new year ahead, and how to make sure we're empowered enough to achieve the goals we set for ourselves.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

In order to set yourself up to win you have to first be okay with where you're at, and then gain clarity over where you wish to be.
When you're trying to achieve something new in life, you need to create a new form of yourself and overcome your former programming.
When you focus your attention, you are telling the infinite universe and its source of energy how to move.
Overcoming the barriers of our minds begins when we truly begin to understand what is possible. The people who wish they could, but use self-limiting beliefs as an excuse, simply need to decide how much they want it, then prioritise their time.

BEST MOMENTS

'It's about setting yourself up to win'

'Clarity gives power'

Bitesize Biohack: Optimising Brain Wave States for Flow, Productivity and Sleep Dec 27, 2022

Now is a great time to focus and reflect, and part of this is optimising our bodies for high performance. Sleep, in this respect, plays a huge part in making sure that we're at our best, and in this week's bitesize biohack, Angela looks at the insights provided by Dr Patrick Porter, and how we can achieve a more consistent state of flow, enabling us to rapidly accelerate our productivity levels.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

When we are in a flow state we are up to five times more productive. Theoretically, by reaching the flow state we could 5x our output.
All brainwaves are important in the right context, so we need to contextualise them all as a symphony that work together instead of single elements.
All dopamine reactions are designed with movement in mind. If we are in a state of relaxation, or seated, then dopamine reactions cause our brains to fry.
The gamma brain wave is a higher level of creativity and problem solving. Gamma is very important in helping people to overcome dementia and Alzheimers.

BEST MOMENTS

'We want to look at how we can optimise productivity, sleep and flow states'

'We call this a symphony of brainwaves'

'Most of our addictions are dopamine addictions'

Best of 2022 - Longevity, NAD+, Fasting, Exercise and Hormone Optimisation Dec 23, 2022

In a special mini-series of episodes, Angela takes a look back at some of the highlights from the past twelve months, showcasing some of the most insightful wisdom and practical advice shared by her amazing gallery of guests.

In this first edition, Angela and her guests discourse on subjects such as what intermittent fasting is, how long the fast needs to be, how supplements can help to regulate energy, and how to enhance mitochondrial health.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

To get ahead and use true preventive medicine, hormones should be checked once a year up to the age of about 40, and then twice a year from then on.
NAD plays hugely critical roles within our physical make up. It's a big part of our energy production, and without NAD, our mitochondrial pathway would not work.
Fasting can be classified into two groups - intermittent fasting is any fast below two days, and prolonged fasting which is any fast that goes above two days.
In the small amount of research that is out there on postmenopausal women and exercise fasting is not recommended.

BEST MOMENTS

'If you need to start or tweak something, then doing it as early as possible is going to be better in terms of efficacy'

'I refer to it as the most important molecule that you've never heard of'

'You have three defence lines when you are not eating'

'It's a stress on the body that increases cortisol'

Bitesize Biohack: Manage Blood Glucose And Have Your Cake and Eat it Dec 20, 2022

If you're considering an indulgent festive period, but still wish to manage your blood glucose levels effectively, then Angela is here with a biohack, courtesy of Wade Lightheart, in which he talks about how to optimise glucose control and insulin sensitivity.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

There is a growing body of evidence that suggests that blood sugar dis-regulation is extremely rampant in society. There is much collateral damage leading to cholesterol.
We have evolved to eat natural whole foods, but the rapid industrialisation in food have led to quick-digesting foods that have a high sugar content that upsets blood sugar.
You should aim to limit the amount of insulin being released and keep within a narrow range, so that you become a fat metaboliser.
People can have genetic predispositions due to their inherent body type. This causes different foods to react in different ways depending on who eats it. This means a one-size-fits-all approach can't comprehensively work for everyone.

BEST MOMENTS

'We all want to have fun while remaining fit and healthy'

'Blood sugar dis-regulation is contributing to the top three diseases'

'The consequences for people are huge'

'There's no set amount of responses to individuals'

Simple Tips And Biohacks For Navigating The Holiday Season Dec 16, 2022

In this special episode, Angela shares some empowering tips designed to help you navigate the Christmas period effectively - how to have fun but still remain on track, health-wise. People always want to maximise their fun but refrain from undoing the good work they've done throughout the year, and in this episode, Angela tells you exactly how to do it.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

You will feel a lot better if you stick to a twelve-hour overnight fast, regardless of how much you eat during the day.
High intensity exercise and resistance training have been shown to help activate a transport protein called Glute 4, which helps to move glucose into muscle tissue without producing insulin.
If you do overindulge in alcohol then do take care if engaging in exercise. It severely limits your ability to burn calories and fat, because your liver prioritises the alcohol first. Have some electrolytes and watch the caffeine levels.
Vitamin C is incredibly important, especially if you've been drinking alcohol, which causes a rapid consumption of Vit C in the body. You can take up to about 3 grams per day split into three doses.

BEST MOMENTS

'You have full permission to enjoy Christmas. It's an opportunity that comes once a year, where we can slow the pace down'

'High intensity exercise for the win!'

'Chlorophyll can help to reduce the damage done to DNA'

'Eat lots of cruciferous vegetables. They're so important for female hormone health'

Bitesize Biohack: Fasting, Keto & Optimal Exercise For Women Dec 13, 2022

Angela shares some invaluable knowledge from her first interview with Dr Stacy Sims, in which the discussion centred around why women should not be engaging in intermittent fasting for any length of time, and why layering in factors such as keto and exercise is not a good idea.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

When you eliminate things from your diet, then your body naturally asks why.
Intermittent fasting, plus keto and exercise is incredibly stressful for the body.
Exercise is already placing your body in a fasting state.
The food aspect and exercise that you do must work together.
Throwing varied forms of exercise, fasting and diets shouldn't just be throw into your routine haphazardly.

BEST MOMENTS

'If you're layering exercise and intermittent fasting, then it's above and beyond the stress that a woman's body should handle'

'Most outcomes are based on male populations or sedentary obese women'

'Exercise itself is a fasted state'

'We need to think about how this affects our daily life'

Intermittent Fasting, Intelligent Exercise & Simple Habits to Boost Longevity & Performance with Dr Michael Mosley Dec 09, 2022

Dr Michael Mosley is a science presenter, journalist and executive producer. He is also the the author of the international bestselling books The Clever Guts Diet, The Fast Diet, Fast Exercise and The 8-Week Blood Sugar Diet.

Dr Mosley joins Angela to discuss his new book, 'Just One Thing', which is dedicated to different biohacks you can use to upgrade your health, your performance and your longevity, as well as wearables and how effective and accurate they can be.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

People's metabolisms are struggling today far more than ever before, largely due to the increase in junk food and processed foods we are seeing on the marketplace.
Squats can be used as a helpful way to boost your brain and BDNF levels, because of the increase in blood flow caused by this.
The three things you really need to crack in order to remain at optimal health are healthy weight, mindfulness, and exercise. Exercise is truly essential as it helps to optimise muscle mass.
The two greatest predictors of life expectancy are your insulin sensitivity, and the amount of oxygen you can burn when you're really pushing yourself during exercises that test your maximum limits.

BEST MOMENTS

'Unfortunately these kinds of foods are quite alien to us'

'After the age of 30, you will lose up to 10% of muscle mass every decade'

'He's demonstrated cognitive improvement in people who do these particular exercises'

'Make the most of the cold winter!'

Optimal Metabolism, Mineral Testing & Detoxification with Upgraded Formulas Founder, Barton Scott Nov 25, 2022

Barton Scott founder of Upgraded Formulas talks with Angela about recognising and correcting mineral deficiency to achieve optimum performance and longevity

He explains how a hair sample can be tested for a wide range of elemental minerals identifying levels and meaning effective action can be taken to achieve the balance that brings optimisation

It’s an effective way to test regularly and understand fully the elemental

balance and ratios in your body and move to optimum performance and longevity, with Barton sharing how testing can be life-changing

FaceBook: https://www.facebook.com/upgradedformulas

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Take a quantitative approach, it’s better to test to know what you need
Hair can be tested for mineral deficiency, heavy metal toxicity, thyroid, adrenal and hormones
Certain ratios give insight into your testosterone and oestrogen balance
By the time a deficiency shows up in the blood, it could have been seen years earlier in the hair
Having knowledge sooner could make a difference in taking action
The most important aspects of the building blocks of hormones are elemental minerals
Detoxing without knowing what toxic elements you need to detox is not a sophisticated approach
When you have a mineral deficiency you accumulate toxic metals more quickly
If your adrenals don’t have the nutrients they need you won’t be able to mobilise the toxins enough to remove them
Supplementing with zinc all the time can mean the individual becomes very analytical, zinc and iron are very masculine elements
Copper is a creative element and can lead to you starting projects and not completing them
All the elements work together and it’s the balance and relationship with each other

BEST MOMENTS

‘Most of us don’t speak the language of the body really well’

‘If you are having anything in your body that you don’t like we can help with that’

‘This process is really powerful over time, to move and match the speed of the body to get nutrients in and detox’

‘Everything is elemental’

For millions of years, our bodies have had regular hormonal messages coordinating all the brain changes
Hormonal messaging lays down the biological groundwork for our adult brain and body but it's interrupted and suppressed by synthetic hormonal birth control
We don’t know how it's influencing the organisation of the brain
The research seems to suggest that pill use during adolescence may increase your risk of depressive disorders across your lifetime
Sex hormones play a really critical role in post-pubertal brain development

BEST MOMENTS

‘It’s important for women to understand that this is at least a possibility’

‘Who you are as a child and who you are as an adult are all post-pubertal brain changes’

‘How many of us were on hormonal birth control when we didn’t need to be?’

Get Happy & Healthy With The Happy Pear Co-Founder, Stephen Flynn Nov 18, 2022

Stephen Flynn co-founder of The Happy Pear talks with Angela about his journey and how The Happy Pear came to be

They discuss how as products of our environment, many people now have a proliferation of sugar and processed food in their diet and why the best thing you can do for your health is to eat as many and as diverse whole foods as possible.

Steve also explains why little changes made over time to your diet and exercise can have a significant compounding effect bringing health and happiness

KEY TAKEAWAYS

There is a great synergistic effect with being twins and we always knew we’d be working together, it’s exciting and wonderful
The business has gone in lots of different directions and its given us meaning and purpose

Adversity and resistance are part of the process of getting to where you want to be. You have to trust and believe in what you are doing
When you really want something and are committed to achieving it you will find a way
It's hugely beneficial for us to mix up our training and physical exercise
In terms of food, we are all a product of our environment and those in blue zones typically don’t have a proliferation of junk foods
They don’t typically live long healthy lives because they’ve won the genetic lottery or are superhuman it’s because their environment forces them to make the healthy choice
We are hardwired to crave high-fat and processed foods, it’s within us. It’s almost an act of rebellion to eat healthy food
Little things done over time have a massive compounding effect
The best thing you can do for your health is to eat as many whole foods as possible and aim for diversity, with at least 30 different types of fruit and veg per week
As humans, we are hardwired to move and movement keeps us healthy
Health is contagious and as social creatures, we copy the rest of our tribe
As human beings, we are part of the natural world and should spend time in nature

BEST MOMENTS

‘When you really truly want something and are willing to risk everything for it you can achieve it’

‘The proliferation of sugar and processed foods in western civilisation is ubiquitous’

‘It’s not about being vegan or vegetarian it’s just trying to eat more whole foods’

‘95% of their diet is whole plant foods compared with western civilisation where 50-55% of calories are from processed foods and only 10% from whole foods’

Bitesize Biohack: Fuelling High Intensity Interval Training With Dr Stacy Sims Nov 08, 2022

In this bitesize episode, from the recent in-depth interview with Dr Stacey Sims, hear about fuelling properly before different types of training along with how to effectively use both Sprint Interval training and High-Intensity Training throughout the menstrual cycle

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Before training, women require protein to make sure that their resting metabolic rate recovers after exercise
The carb is primarily amino acid based
SIT is going as hard as you can for 20-30 seconds with 90-100 seconds recovery, with HIT the intervals are slightly longer
It’s about recovery from a cardiovascular and neuro-muscular standpoint so you can go again
In the luteal phase, you should usually avoid high-intensity training due to the stress it puts on the body

BEST MOMENTS

‘If you are going to do cardio you require protein with a little bit of carb in it’

‘It’s about short, sharp and very efficient ’

‘Getting out and doing a couple of short sharp 20-second intervals is magic’

We spend a lot of time obsessing over how we look but we only have this moment, and this day every day
Women are so hard on themselves but all women are incredible, amazing and beautiful

Small consistencies every day are what get us to the long-term goal
Your cells are listening when you are talking to yourself and it impacts on how you are showing up in the world
Being outside and grounding is a simple but very powerful tool
If you understand your body you can take control
Looking at your body as a whole and understanding the mechanics means you can optimise and live your best life

BEST MOMENTS

‘You can go into the cold at any time of the month that feels right

‘Bio-syncing means you can take control

‘It doesn’t matter where you are in your lifespan as a woman you should be lifting heavy

ABOUT THE GUEST

Sarah Brown, CEO of Pai Skincare

Sarah Brown, founder and CEO of Pai Skincare is an organic skincare pioneer whose expertise developing all-natural, efficacious products was born from her own experience living with challenging skin. Sarah developed Chronic Urticaria in her mid-twenties and started mixing her own formulations from her garage as a last-ditch solution for her hyper-reactive skin.

Pai continues to formulate, manufacture and distribute all products from its own custom built facility in West London.

This development process is owned end to end, giving the company creative freedom, full visibility of the supply chain and vigilance over production processes.

Detox Your Mind, Heal Burnout & Reduce Toxic Stress with Neuroscientist, Dr Caroline Leaf Oct 17, 2022

Neuroscientist Dr Caroline Leaf talks with Angela about the mind, what it is and how you can reduce toxic stress and tune into the signals to make positive change

In this fascinating look at the non-conscious, subconscious and conscious aspects of the mind Dr Caroline explains how the mind is the driving force that keeps the brain and body going and discusses the ways it processes and brings understanding to our experiences

As Dr Caroline discusses we can’t see mind but the product of mind are how we communicate and express our uniqueness

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The mind is the ability that we have as humans to use our brain and body to express our uniqueness

The mind is the driving force that keeps the brain and body going

The mind is our aliveness, our ability to think, feel and choose on a psychological level

It is what helps the heart, beat and the body make new cells

The biggest driving force part of the mind is the non-conscious

It’s the part that is active all the time helping us to process and understand our experiences

The most obvious part of the mind is the conscious mind and it draws on the non-conscious for understanding

The subconscious part of the mind is the bridge between the infinite non-conscious and the finite conscious parts of the mind

Thoughts are made of memories and our mind makes these thoughts made of memories out of experiences and builds them into the brain as structural changes

We build every experience into the brain, body and mind and this is driven by the non-conscious

As humans, we need to tune into the signals so that we can move things into the conscious mind and change

We need to allow ourselves to feel depression and anxiety, accept it and then weaken the pathway to

You can train yourself with the neurocycle process to get your conscious mind to connect with and listen to the subconscious to find the thoughts in the non-conscious and deconstruct and reconstruct them

Thoughts can be changed when they are pulled into the conscious mind

When we build in the wrong expectation the result is a loss of selfhood

BEST MOMENTS

‘Everything about your aliveness is coming from this driving force of the mind

‘You can’t see mind but you see the product of mind in our ability to communicate

Post-natal depression is a very normal response to a challenging situation

What we say and what we do is an outpouring of our thoughts

Bitesize Biohack: Intermittent Fasting & Autophagy Oct 13, 2022

In this extract from Angela’s interview with Dr Joseph Antoun hear about the most important aspect of fasting, stressing the body and how to optimise your fasting period

Getting into autophagy, as Dr Joseph explains, takes longer than most people think and exercise is an effective tool for getting into autophagy and benefitting from the duality of intermittent fasting, cutting fat and increasing muscle enhancement

KEY TAKEAWAYS

When you fast for a long enough period of time there is restructuring and cellular renewal as you move into autophagy
The most crucial aspect of how fasting works is how you are stressing the body
Fasting increases the growth hormone and the muscle tone is high
Getting into autophagy is determined by the intensity of the crisis, the speed of the crisis and how much reserves the body has to compensate
Autophagy is happening every day at every moment across the body’s cells

BEST MOMENTS

‘It doesn’t happen as quickly as many people think

‘Eat protein after fasting and train the muscle in cycles of rejuvenation and muscle enhancement’

Science Backed Training, Sleeping and Fasting Protocols for Perimenopause with Dr Stacy Sims Oct 10, 2022

Dr Stacy Sims joins Angela to discuss the science behind training effectively as a woman and explains how in the years leading up to menopause it's vital to instigate different techniques in training and nutritional strategies to offset what your hormones are no longer doing

This in-depth interview is a great opportunity to hear about what supports the maintenance of lean mass and the adaptations that should be made during perimenopause to support effective autophagy

KEY TAKEAWAYS

We need external stress to create a signal of adaptation the way our hormones did
To aesthetically change body shape you need to train a minimum of four times a week
You need to spend time learning techniques and the mechanics before you build load, lifting heavy is about the neuro-muscular connection
For women, when there is no carbohydrate available as fuel when exercising you burn lean mass
To maintain lean mass we have to do things when fuelled
Sprint interval training is about being short, sharp and very efficient
You should avoid high-intensity work in the luteal phase because it’s a strong stressor
The primary objective of intermittent fasting is weight loss
Aerobic exercise promotes the growth of brain tissue
Exercising is a huge stimulus for creating autophagy in the brain and cardiovascular system
Our bodies revert to using lean mass first over fat and carbohydrates
The limited research available on post-menopausal women indicates fasting isn’t beneficial
A small amount of pre-fuel makes all the difference

BEST MOMENTS

‘Exercise has more robust data to support longevity’

‘If you are trying to do high-intensity training or heavy-weight training and you don’t have fuel on board it causes a quagmire of increased cortisol’

‘Women have a gene adaptation in the liver that upregulates - storing everything and burning lean mass’

‘It’s really important that women remember to eat’

ABOUT THE GUEST

STACY T. SIMS, MSC, PHD, is a forward-thinking international exercise physiologist and nutrition scientist who aims to revolutionize exercise nutrition and performance for women.

She has directed research programs at Stanford, AUT University, and the University of Waikato, focusing on female athlete health and performance and pushing the dogma to improve research on all women.

With the unique opportunities, Silicon Valley has to offer, during her tenure at Stanford, she had the opportunity to translate earlier research into consumer products and a science-based layperson's book (ROAR) written to explain sex differences in training and nutrition across the lifespan. Both the consumer products and the book challenged the existing dogma for women in exercise, nutrition, and health. This paradigm shift is the focus of her famous "Women Are Not Small Men” TEDx talk.

Stacy currently holds a Senior Research Associate position with SPRINZ- AUT University, supervises PhD students, writes academic papers, and is on the advisory board of some cutting edge companies including Tonal Strength Institute, WILD.AI, and EXOS. She also has her own business (www.drstacysims.com) where she creates and delivers online learning material focused on women training with their physiology across the lifespan.

Optimise Your Hormones & Menopause Transition with Dr Kyle Gillett Oct 02, 2022

Angela welcomes Dr Kyle Gillett to discuss the ways you can effectively optimise your hormones and positively impact the menopause transition

Dr Gillett explains how hormones are affected as women approach menopause and the major role lifestyle pillars such as sleep, levels of stress, exercise and diet play in achieving optimal health.

He discusses why food is medicine and how the most powerful intervention for almost all females is the right balanced diet and nutrition to support hormone health

KEY TAKEAWAYS

There is no better fat burner than lean metabolically active muscle tissue
The way you enter menopause is key, those who are metabolically fit are likely to have a better experience
If you go through andropause and menopause at the same time you more likely to have more severe symptoms
The better you are able to optimise your androgens and oestrogens without the ovary the better your transition to menopause
Food is medicine and the most powerful intervention for almost all females is the right balanced diet and nutrition
For optimal health, it’s not just what’s going into your body and its efficiency, it’s all aspects that contribute to the complete health picture
Your lifestyle plays a major role, sleep, levels of stress and exercise along with hormone health are all major contributing factors
Almost everyone can get into zone two with a brisk power walk and should aim to do this for at least 2 hours per week
Your brain and other lean body mass are closely related
Individuals who remain at the same weight over time are at less risk from dementia
Good healthy body mass helps retain healthy brain mass

BEST MOMENTS

‘With less lean body mass you burn fewer calories’

‘Females should optimise their hormones and do it earlier rather than later’

‘Lifestyle interventions are more powerful than anything else’

‘ The better functioning your adrenal gland the better oestrogen production after menopause’

Optimising Fasting & Longevity with Dr Joseph Antoun Sep 27, 2022

Dr Joseph Antoun, physician and CEO of L-Nutra has a passion to bring fasting to the world

and help humanity to live in a more healthy way and longer

He talks with Angela about his research and how the fast mimicking diet means you can move to autophagy and protect your lean muscle

Understand more about how to optimise fasting and longevity in this informative episode

KEY TAKEAWAYS

There are 2 categories of fasting – intermittent and periodic
Autophagy begins for most people at around 48 hours and the most important aspect of fasting is stressing the body
Stress elevates cortisol and with a focus on protein you can restructure muscle
The duality of fasting means you are accessing your fat reserve and protecting lean muscle mass
Fasting allows you to go beyond day 2 and Prolon’s five-day regime effectively supports this
A cellular fast means the cells are getting nutrients but not spiking insulin
The body switches to keto and autophagy on days 2 and 3 and then on days 4 and 5 the feeling is euphoric and cells are being rejuvenated
The mimicking fasting diet puts the body in a good metabolic state to optimise nutrition around your treatment
Intermittent fasting can help to keep cancer cells in check in the early stages
Cancer cells can’t survive fasting mode because they need calories, they don’t know how to stop replicating by design

BEST MOMENTS

‘It’s not sci-fi it’s the speed of the crisis, the intensity of the crisis and how much reserves you have to compensate for it’

‘If you want to benefit from autophagy you have to give it time’

‘Prolon is short enough that people can do it but long enough to get people into autophagy’

You should be aiming to under nourish cancer cells not feeding them to grow

ABOUT THE GUEST

Dr. Joseph Antoun always knew he wanted to help others through medicine, which is why he trained to be a physician. Eventually, he figured out that medicine was actually sick care, treating patients after their health had already declined.

Dr. Antoun wanted to be at the forefront of changing our current healthcare system of sick care to a more proactive approach, which meant taking care of our existing good health. After years of working at pharmaceutical companies and, later, focusing on public health policy, he found what he was searching for at L-Nutra, Inc., a cutting-edge nutri-technology company.

Dr. Joseph Antoun is CEO & Chairman of the Board of L-Nutra and Member of the Forbes Business Development Council. He's the former CEO of Health Systems Reform, a boutique consultancy aimed at improving public health by reforming health systems, management, and delivery. Prior to that, he was Director of Health Policy at the University of Chicago, Editor in Chief of the Journal of Health Systems and Reform and head of Business Development for Eli Lilly & Co. He completed his studies in Public Policy at Harvard University, in Public Health at Johns Hopkins University, and his Doctorate in Medicine and Masters’ in Medical and Biological Sciences at Saint Joseph University.

Amanda discusses how she was addicted to the ‘doing’ in life to validate who she was and how the key to freedom was working on her inner sense of worth and understanding that we decide on how worthy we are not others

When you upgrade your own inner sense of worth and confidence everything changes because if you believe you are worthy and enough what you can accomplish is limitless

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Self-worth is how we feel about ourselves not how others feel about us, we decide how worthy we are, it’s something we own
We are wired for connection and become chameleons to be able to fit in
Our souls are always listening and the brain works on repetition so if the dialogue is negative that will be what we manifest
Being alone with yourself and journaling can help with naming it to tame it
It’s very hard to outperform your identity and anything that follows ‘I am’ becomes your identity
You can think one thought and it can lead to a hundred others but just because you think it doesn’t make it true unless you believe it
When you experience pain, sadness and frustration it’s because you are out of alignment with your inner self
It’s questioning your thoughts and asking where would you be without that thought?
It's deciding what you want and who you need to become to have those things
You have to plant the thoughts you want to make reality
Things don’t happen to you, they happen for you
If you believed you were worthy and enough what could you accomplish?

BEST MOMENTS

’ You should measure your success by how you feel’

‘When we care more about how we feel about ourselves everyone around us benefits’

‘The key to freedom is that we are not our thoughts, we are just the thinker of our thoughts’

‘I have an unbreakable, unshakable relationship with self now that I didn’t have before and it started with making friends with the woman in the mirror’

ABOUT THE GUEST

Amanda O’Reilly

Lifestyle Entrepreneur, Dame ( yup! she was Knighted), and the Creator of Worthy Wands, Amanda is the definition of confidence and empowerment. It took her realizing with deep inner work, that she didn’t feel worthy or enough in her own life, despite building multiple 7 figure businesses. Addicted to the DO of life because that’s how she validated her

worth, she had to learn to reprogram her unconscious beliefs about herself and learn to BE. In doing so she created Worthy Wands. A collection of science-backed jewellery designed to rewire the subconscious mind and reprogram your DNA. To date, seven lives have been saved from suicide and this brand is making waves around the world reminding women, men, and teens alike that they were born worthy and are more than enough.

How To Use HRV Training To Boost Performance & Well-being and Protect Against Burnout with Dr Jay Wiles Sep 12, 2022

Second-time guest Dr Jay Wiles Co-founder and chief scientific officer at Hanu Health is with Angela discussing HRV what it is and how it can be better controlled

This is a fascinating look at the research that Dr Jay has been working on and Hanu, a continuous daytime wearable designed to monitor fluctuations and changes in the human stress response throughout the day that also tells you what you can do to make positive changes

When you can identify how you feel and know what you can do to make changes you can boost performance, well-being and longevity

KEY TAKEAWAYS

HRV is a data point and a proxy to look at the shifts in our autonomic system that indicates our response to stress
If there are extreme fluctuations in HRV it means there is an extreme impact on the nervous system that is causing stress
It’s about context and framework, it’s how much fluctuation there is and how much control an individual has over their nervous system
There are genetic variabilities and components linked to basic demographics such as sex and height
The single biggest contributor to overall baseline HRV is cardio-respiratory fitness
As you increase overall cardio-respiratory fitness you increase the strength of your heart
The right goal is to build better resiliency, recover faster and be more in control of the nervous system
Experiencing a stressor that derails us is something that is detrimental to both wellbeing and longevity
Hanu trains you to be more self-aware of stress and how to better self-regulate
If you can condition a better response and better habits you can make a difference to your response the next time
Emotional regulation and self-control are intertwined with HRV and longevity
The more you do something and condition your body along with self-regulation
The best guide we have is our subjective experience combined with knowing ourselves and what’s good and works for us

BEST MOMENTS

‘It gives a snapshot of the autonomic nervous system that is representative of your overall stress response’

‘As people increase overall cardio-respiratory fitness we see an upwards trend in baseline HRV’

‘We have to make the decision about how we encounter stress’

Bitesize Biohack - How to avoid burnout Sep 08, 2022

In this bitesize episode, Dr Jay Wiles shares how you can effectively biohack stress to support longevity. With better self-awareness and increased self-regulation you can change the way you deal with stress and condition your response

With self-control and emotional regulation impacting HRV and resilience the ways you respond to stress really does make the difference

KEY TAKEAWAYS

You can see it coming if you are measuring it and are self-aware
We create habits and behaviours to avoid doing the real self-regulation work
When your nervous system takes a hit and you use the stress for good you are conditioning the body to respond in this way
Stress is not bad, it’s a warning sign that you can use
Do we allow stress to consume us or continue to develop our self-regulation skills?
Longevity is impacted by the components of emotional regulation and self-control

BEST MOMENTS

‘A stressor that could be benign to the body becomes malignant to the body’

‘People don’t realise the effects of stress until they burn out’

‘We have to make the decision about how we deal with stress’

Impact and Optimise Your Longevity and Biological Age Through NAD+ with Dr Nichola Conlon Sep 06, 2022

Dr Nichola Conlon, CEO and founder of Nuchido is a molecular biologist specialising in the study of cellular ageing. In this episode she talks to Angela about the vital molecule you’ve probably never heard of NAD+

With a critical role in the energy production for cells NAD+ levels are impacted by lifestyle and ageing but as Dr Nichola Conlon explains there are positive actions you can take to boost NAD+ levels and optimise your health and longevity to live your best life

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The fluctuating levels of NAD+ control cellular maintenance and repair being switched on and off
Research indicates that NAD+ begins its decline from birth, by the time you reach twenty you have half the amount of energy in your tissues
Any level of fasting will help to increase your energy levels, when you fast AMPK is activated and up-regulates NAD+ levels
Creating energy stress through fasting, calorie restriction and exercise in the body positively impacts NAD+ levels
The salvage pathway recycles NAD+ for use again for repair and mitochondrial pathways but declines with age
All the benefits of exercise and fasting happen because they are increasing the function of the salvage pathways
Elevating NAD+ can help make some chronic illnesses significantly better
Biological age can be impacted by making simple lifestyle changes
Sirtuins are at the top of the cascade that switches on many aspects of longevity and they are dependent on NAD+ as fuel to function
NAD+ is involved in regulating the circadian rhythm by switching on the pathways that impact the rhythm

BEST MOMENTS

‘I do all my exercise in a fasted state to prolong AMPK activation’

‘You are fundamentally altering the cells' ability to make more NAD+ ‘

‘Our bodies aren’t designed to live in the way we are living today

‘If you want to make sense of ageing look at it from the perspective of evolution’

Bitesize Biohacks - Fasting For Women Sep 02, 2022

Continuing with the theme of hormones in this bitesize episode Angela looks at the neuropeptide hormone, kisspeptin and the vital role it plays in fasting

There is a common misconception that the more fasting you do the better but as a woman, it’s all about hormonal balance and Angela explains how kisspeptin works and shares a short clip from her interview with Dr Stacey Sims, who shares invaluable information on the importance for women of taking into account hormonal balance when fasting

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The neuropeptide kisspeptin is really important in the context of fasting
To go into full cellular autophagy takes anyway between 24 and 48 hours depending on the individual
Exercise is a powerful tool in stimulating autophagy
Intermittent fasting and keto are more of an elimination diet
If you are layering exercise and intermittent fasting it will take you above the stress level that a woman’s body should be in
Kisspeptin is responsible for turning the endocrine system on and off
One of the by-products of the conversion of oestrogen is more cortisol

BEST MOMENTS

‘Pre-fuelling with essential amino acids can be very positive’

‘The whole hormonal aspect of what's happening is so far removed from what a man would experience’

‘You need to think about your diet and exercise together’

Healing Trauma, Optimising Energy, Chakra Alignment & Relationships With Troy Olds Aug 29, 2022

Troy Olds is an independent Transformation Coach, Tony Robbins Business Results Specialist and entrepreneur who joins Angela to talk about his own journey and how your inner world frames your outer world

Troy healed his own mind and body and now helps people get clarity about what they really want to experience in their lives and shows them how to create a plan to get it.

He discusses why healing past trauma is a vital part of optimising your life and overcoming limiting beliefs and explains how anyone can take action and achieve the life they want

KEY TAKEAWAYS

People don’t typically take action because of limiting beliefs and not understanding why
Flow states are incredibly healing, creative and are the place where we can connect from our unconscious with the quantum realm

In the flow state, it’s possible to create the future and resolve the past. Everyone can go into a flow state just through breath work
Micro dosing is about neuro regeneration and I can programme myself in ways that optimise me for greater service to myself, my family and the world
Everyone has lots of unconscious trauma and unconscious programs that are in control
The work is bringing to the surface and recreating the experience repeatedly so the emotion decreases
Things that were unconscious become conscious and the more work you do the more is revealed until you are emotionally clean
It's about liberating ourselves because we have a choice. The unconscious doesn’t want to change, it has to be overridden
If we don’t make the unconscious conscious, history will repeat itself and we will call it fate
We are connected to everything and we are all contributing to the quantum realm
Start with where you are at, with what you have and do the best you can and ask for help

BEST MOMENTS

‘A person has to know what they truly want and have a plan to get there’

‘I calendar time for everything and what’s on the calendar is achieved’

‘I’m a seeker and I want to experience as much as I can while I’m on this planet’

‘There is the emotional trauma that is now conscious and being rescripted’

Bitesize Biohacks: Sleep & Natural Ways To Enhance Melatonin Production Aug 25, 2022

This week Angela continues to look at hormones as part of her SHIFT protocol and is focusing on melatonin, a vital sleep regulator

She shares some great biohacks to improve the natural production of melatonin and explains how melatonin production is impacted by levels of stress and what you can do about it naturally to put you in the best place for great sleep every night

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Melatonin isn’t a sleep initiator but it is a sleep regulator
To bio-hack your sleep with melatonin you need to get stress and light under control
Get outside into the natural light as early in the morning as you can
Cortisol and melatonin have an inverse relationship and being highly stressed in the evening inhibits the production of melatonin
A red light therapy device can help to regulate your circadian rhythm
Having some kind of carbohydrates along with protein foods rich in tryptophan is beneficial
EMS from electronic devices can interfere with deep slow way sleep and the production of melatonin

BEST MOMENTS

‘It’s important you are producing enough melatonin if you want to have a good night’s sleep’

‘Serotonin gives a tremendous boost in mood’

‘Make sure you are getting enough protein in your diet’

Optimise Your Brain’s Peak Potential With Braintap- Dr Patrick Porter Aug 22, 2022

Award-winning author, educator, researcher, entrepreneur, speaker and founder of Brain Tap, Dr Patrick Porter talks with Angela about the potential of the brain and explains how we can both limit and free up the potential of our brains

This is a fascinating insight into the many ways we can move our brains into a place where we can see the opportunities and act on them to bring what we want into our lives

Every day is about creating something new in the present and Dr Patrick also discusses in detail how to use Braintap effectively to bring the changes you want to create brainwave flexibility

KEY TAKEAWAYS

All of our different brainwaves are important in the right context
At night we cycle through all the different brainwaves and this builds our neurotransmitters
When we are in a higher state of gamma we emit 200 times more light energy and the light energy is instructing your mitochondria to change your gene expression
The more neuroplasticity we can bring into the brain the more our genes can express at their healthiest point
Optimism is the key for the brain to function at its highest level
In biohacking everyone needs to look at their own results and work out what works for them and implement it consistently
We only use a limited amount of the total information available to us
As we open up to the world opportunities open up that previously have been hidden because of our self-sabotaging behaviours
We have to fix ourselves and realise that we live in a space of infinite abundance
When we can start to change the paradigm of what we are doing we are moving into the thriving parasympathetic states
When we monitor our brains and behaviours we are more able to predict our future, rather than our future predict our life
We can change how we consciously participate in creating what we want
You don’t have to have a breakdown to have a breakthrough you can choose to make a change
People who survive and thrive have choices and you can learn to be a choice generator

BEST MOMENTS

‘People who are in joy and happiness produce 200 times more light energy, we are projecting our protons outwards all the time’

‘The brain's only job is to prove you right every day’

‘The more you can go through the different brainwave states the more variety of neurotransmitters you will have’

Bitesize Biohack Episode - Overcoming Oestrogen Dominance Aug 19, 2022

In the SHIFT protocol, ‘H’ is for hormones and in this bitesize episode Angela looks at the sex hormones beginning with oestrogen

If there is an oestrogen dominance you need to understand why before you make changes and when you are looking at hormonal support and lifestyle you need to work with a practitioner and test first to have the information needed to effectively balance and optimise

Angela explains the ways in which oestrogen impacts the body and why to have a successful transition into menopause good adrenal function is key along with advice about what you can do to effectively boost your oestrogen levels

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Oestrogen is made in the ovaries and synthesized from the hormone DHEA
After menopause, the ovaries stop producing oestrogen and the production is taken over by the adrenal glands
Insulin sensitivity and blood glucose management make a huge difference
Oestradiol is the major oestrogen produced by the ovaries in your cycling years, Post menopause it’s derived from testosterone via aromatization
The Dutch test means you can see what pathway your oestrogen is going down
Including flax seeds in your diet will naturally boost oestrogen levels and seed cycling can help promote the production of oestrogen and progesterone
If you are perimenopausal you can follow the moon cycle

BEST MOMENTS

‘Oestradiol is the strongest and most active form of oestrogen in the body and can be converted into both E1 and E3’

‘A combination of hormone therapy alongside lifestyle changes can really help’

‘There are a lot of oestrogen disruptors in the environment’

Heal Your Gut & Optimise Your Metabolism Part 2 with Dr Will Bulsiewicz Aug 09, 2022

Dr Will Bulsiewicz returns to discuss more on how to optimise your metabolism and explains the crucial role your gut microbiome plays in achieving balance

Both fat and blood sugar play significant roles and they are interconnected and how our microbiome interacts with our diet is key with fibre vital in supporting a healthy microbiome

You can rebalance and reset your microbiome and Dr Will has great advice on how you can take individualised action right now to make a positive difference to your gut health and metabolism

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Insulin resistance is pre-diabetes, when you reach a point where your pancreas is producing as much insulin as possible and not able to achieve balance you have type 2 diabetes
Lipotoxicity is the free fatty acids in the body blocking the path of the blood sugar into the tissues
Carbohydrates are interconnected with insulin resistance and play a role in the imbalance
The level of the free fat in the blood that translates ultimately into insulin resistance
When the fat cells are full the fat moves into the bloodstream
Mechanisms for getting free fat include obesity and diet
We believe that of the 8 billion people on the planet no two microbiomes are the same
This unique individuality explains our very individual response to food, one size doesn’t fit all
Specific foods react differently with different people's microbiomes
Trans fats and saturated fats drive up free fatty acids and predispose us to insulin resistance
The omega 6’s saturates the receptors, that are allowing us to make the conversion away from ALA and other forms of omega 3
Sustainability has to be part of the conversation and oysters could be part of the solution

BEST MOMENTS

‘There is an explosion of insulin resistance-related conditions right now in both adults and kids’

‘The microbiome is centrally evolved in the equation’

‘There are different components that can drive up free fat

4-Hour Work Weeks, Flow States & Quality Family Time with Ashao Freesky Aug 01, 2022

Ashao Freesky is passionate about helping parent-preneurs create more time and reclaim magic moments with their family as they build their businesses

He talks with Angela about some of the ways you can effectively change your work pattern and be focused and present for activities and time throughout your day when you have the right mindset

When you plan, schedule and are intentional with your attention time can be more productive and you claim back time to spend with your family, listen in and hear Ashao’s invaluable advice

KEY TAKEAWAYS

We are energy-based beings and when we deplete our energy, time becomes depleted because of our lack of energy
Time without energy and attention is meaningless
Being intentional about time and not fracturing it, giving yourself time for renewal is crucial
Context switching brings a new set of rules that you need to reorientate yourself to and attention residue happens when you continually switch from one task to another
It’s being intentional about how you structure your day and schedule activities
When you have scheduled a time for each activity it means you can be focused, intentional and present for the task you are working on
The concept of diminishing and negative returns means more time can lead to less output because of your depletion of energy
You can start small with any new behaviour and build a habit that can grow
When you have larger amounts of time that are not fractured you can achieve more
I plan my week to include maker time and manager time, maker time is high-value deep work time and manager time is communication and meetings that support the high-value work
Making sure you get an adequate amount of sleep is crucial along with movement throughout the day as this keeps your energy high

BEST MOMENTS

‘It starts with having the right mindset’

‘I like to front load my day with the most important tasks’

‘I’ve learned to flow more in the middle and start the day with a chunk of time for myself’

‘You are going to build your business by creating a team and not thinking you have to do it all yourself’

Bitesize Biohacks: How to Stress Less & Lose Body Fat Faster Jul 22, 2022

Dr Libby Weaver, nutritional biochemist really understands how stress impacts women’s hormonal balances and in this bitesize episode, she explains the link between elevated levels of cortisol and the storage of abdominal and upper back fat.

This is a great opportunity to hear how when you tune into yourself and use restorative practices you can change how your body responds

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The pattern of adrenalin production today leads to inflammatory compounds in the body
We naturally produce effective anti-inflammatory substances and one of these is cortisol
We only produce cortisol as a response to long-term stress and one of the roles of cortisol is to slow down the body’s metabolism
One of the aspects of burnout is very low cortisol levels loss of anti-inflammatory protection
Our actions and behaviours are driven by our beliefs
It’s about whether the message is to burn fat or store fat
When you breathe diaphragmatically you are signalling to the body that you are safe

BEST MOMENTS

‘There are little things across the day that lead to adrenalin going up and up

‘Cortisol thickens you around your torso because this is where your most

important organs are’

‘Your body has extraordinary wisdom but it is responding to the information you give it’

Bitesize Biohacks: Flattening Your Blood Glucose Curve Jul 01, 2022

This week Angela is talking all about blood sugar and why it’s so important to manage blood sugar spikes because when you continuously spike your blood glucose you are affecting your mitochondria over time and to optimise, your mitochondria need to be as healthy as possible

Angela explains what happens when you continually spike your blood sugar and shares 3 key hacks that you can use daily at home to flatten your glucose spike and optimise your health

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Your fasting glucose should be between 4milimoles per litre and 5.4milimoles per litre

Going to 7 millimoles and above you are in the diabetes range

More free radicals mean more oxidised stress

Oxidative stress is a driver of heart disease, cognitive decline, and ageing

If you are spiking your blood glucose you are also spiking your fructose

Glycation is where sugar molecules attach to other cells and damage them

Fructose can overwhelm the liver

When you change the composition of the calories you are consuming you can lose weight on the same number of calories

Fibre is your friend and has 3 key superpowers, eating more fibre slows down the release of glucose into the blood.

Fibre creates a viscous mesh that limits the absorption of glucose

The order of eating matters, start with the veggies

Start your meal with vinegar to reduce blood glucose the acetic acid

the way you start your day plays a vital role in your blood glucose, as you will be more sensitive to glucose

BEST MOMENTS

‘Your mitochondria are the powerhouses of your cells so you want to keep them as healthy as possible

‘Wrinkles are something you can get from too much glycation’

‘The narrower the range of the spike the better your health will be with less cravings and fat storage

Heal Your Gut & Optimise Your Metabolism Part 1 with Dr. Will Bulsiewicz Jun 20, 2022

In this episode Angela is talking with Dr Will Bulsiewicz, The Gut Health MD, he’s an award-winning gastroenterologist, author of the plant-based gut health book Fiber Fueled and a passionate advocate for gut health

He talks about the importance of the gut microbiome and the ways in which diet and lifestyle can disempower our gut microbes and manifest as poor health. He also explains how when you make positive changes to your diet and lifestyle your gut microbiome will positively adapt and evolve with you

Dr Will also discusses with Angela the critical role of fibre and microbes in producing healing, anti-inflammatory compounds and explains why eating as many different varieties of plants as possible is key

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The microbiome is most concentrated inside of the body in the colon, our biology is supported by the gut microbiome
The gut microbiome is shaped and formed by your lifestyle choices
Our gut can be trained to evolve and adapt to our dietary choices over time
Prebiotics mean food for the microbiome and in turn better health
Polyphenols are the antioxidant compounds found in plant foods and are activated by the gut microbes
We need our microbiome to process and digest fibre and resistant starches, in the colon fibre is consumed by microbes and the fibre becomes short chain fatty acids
Short chain fatty acids are the most healing, anti-inflammatory compounds and come from consuming fibre
The avoidance of carbohydrates to lower blood sugar is not fixing insulin resistance
Sour bread has microbes that produce compounds making it organically more preserved
The entire lifecycle of a plant involves microbes and preservatives, preserve by destroying and retarding microbes
To optimise gut health begin with diet and lifestyle and use probiotics as a supplement.
Eat as many different varieties of plants as possible and add fermented foods to your diet to optimise your gut health

BEST MOMENTS

‘Within us is an ecosystem and that needs to be nourished for us to be healthy’

‘Fibre is the preferred food for gut microbes and we need our gut microbes to be healthy humans’

‘We have normalised calorie counting but if you are eating the right things it’s not needed’

Master Your Inner Game with Peter Sage Jun 06, 2022

Peter Sage, an expert in human behaviour talks with Angela about his journey and shares great content about how mindset, programming, environment, and self-belief influence and shape your present and future

Realising you are in a growth centric experience is key to emotional maturity along with clarity about your ‘why’ and understanding what you want to achieve, Peter explains how this is part of the human experience and shares what you need to do to be in a place where you can choose the path forward. This is an enlightening episode with many great ‘nuggets’ of learning for anyone who wants to add value and achieve self-mastery

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Knowledge mastery doesn’t change your behaviour it only impacts the set of skills you have while experiencing the same life
In our society, lots of people have been conditioned to attach their self-worth to their net worth
Wealth is a by-product of you adding value and if you don’t have the self-esteem you won't be showing up to add value
Guilt is the emotion where you stand alone judging yourself
Programming is a result of environment and your own sense of self-belief
Being able to commit to something and stay on track should be about it being the right thing and an expression of who you are
We don’t have a choice about being programmed, it’s part of the human experience of imprinting, only how we are programmed
Set yourself up to win by having clarity over what you want to achieve and be okay with where you are in the present moment
It's only when you accept where you are that you can move forward and choose a different path
People can never rise above the opinion they have of themselves
Reframe your goal setting to leave space for the magic, the purpose is about who you need to become to achieve the goal
Stop focusing on yourself and start focusing on what you can give to the world

BEST MOMENTS

‘We are programmed to conform to the environment we are in’

‘You are absorbing everything in your environment’

‘Complaining about your present circumstances is the glue that keeps you tied to them’

Collagen Peptides for Anti-aging, Tissue Repair and Enhanced Recovery with Dr Eva Carneiro May 30, 2022

Dr Eva Carneiro, Consultant in sports and exercise medicine and clinical advisor for TRR nutrition talks with Angela about collage peptides and how they work to enhance recovery and repair tissue building structurally stronger tissue

There is a fine balance and a sweet spot to be found to optimise collagen and Dr Eva shares great information and advice on how to take collagen effectively and achieve the best results in the journey to anti-ging, tissue repair and enhanced recovery

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Around the cell is an amazing structure and collagen is the major protein in this matrix
The building of tissue is very sport specific
Loading is a positive thing for the body and makes it structurally stronger, it’s how you load that makes the difference
We don’t absorb the collagen molecule itself we absorb the collagen peptide
Take it as naturally as you can and stay away from tea and coffee around the time of taking
You can increase collagen production by taking collagen peptides
When cartilage cells are surrounded by collagen peptides they absorb it and also produce the right type of collagen
Collagen peptide can be taken at any point throughout the day, the most important thing is that it’s taken regularly
Research indicates cartilage is affected by a lack of sleep but once it’s in your body it's used as needed and there are no side effects
It’s a nutritional supplement so it’s important to take it every day
Taking in protein first thing in the day makes a huge difference to cognitive function

BEST MOMENTS

‘It’s about measuring where the sweet spot is and this can be dependent on genetics and previous injury

‘How we load is the real art in sports’

‘It’s not only clever in absorbing the collagen it’s also clever in producing the type of collagen you need to produce’

Thyroid Health, Fertility & The Gut Connection with Margaret Floyd Barry May 23, 2022

Margaret Floyd Barry is a certified Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner and Master

Restorative Wellness Practitioner who specialises in Thyroid function and autoimmunity

She talks with Angela about the role of digestive dysfunction in chronic illness and how the thyroid and your gut are affected by stress, toxins, diet, lifestyle, and lack of sleep. With this combination of stressors exhausting the immune system, it can be in a constant inflammatory loop but as Margaret explains the key is to identify and systematically remove the stressors from the immune system whilst also supporting it to calm down and pull it away from the pro-inflammatory loops, she shares great content on how this can be approached along with invaluable information about the links between the thyroid and fertility

KEY TAKEAWAYS

There are thyroid receptors on every single cell in the body
The vast majority of the immune system lives in or around the gut and digestive tract, so this is a good starting point
Much of the conventional diet causes damage to the digestive system and triggers the immune system resulting in a consistent burden and drain on it
Focusing on digestive healing and removing inflammatory foods, can be enough to put some individuals into full remission from autoimmune conditions such as Hashimoto's and Graves
Some of the proteins in gluten containing grains can look very similar to thyroid tissue so removing gluten from the diet is essential
Our immune system gets really good at doing what we ask it to do most frequently and we ask it to inflame all of the time
Helping your immune system to calm, resolve and anti-inflame is critical
Changes and imbalances in any hormone affect the signalling to glands
The thyroid and adrenals are closely linked and if you have dysregulation in one the body often makes adjustments through the other
The adrenals play a vital role in the transition from peri menopause through to menopause
how robust and healthy the adrenals are will often dictate how smooth the transition will be
when you have an underactive thyroid it affects the hypothalamus hormone GRH which in turn can lead to hormone dysregulation and an anovulatory cycle
The research indicates there is some form of autoimmune mechanism that is contributing to complications with fertility

BEST MOMENTS

‘It has an incredible role in our metabolism and energy levels’

‘There isn’t a body system that the thyroid isn’t impacting in some way’

‘We are supporting the immune system to come back into balance and this means supporting the digestive system’

Why We’re Wired to Eat and the Autoimmune Solution – with Robb Wolf May 16, 2022

Angela talks with Robb Wolf, former research biochemist, New York Times and Wall Street Journal Best-selling author and co-host of ‘The Healthy Rebellion Radio’ podcast

They discuss their own blood sugar issues, effectively tracking blood sugar, the impact of moving to a low carb diet and how the 7 Day Carb Test can help you to make better-informed decisions

Robb also shares great information and advice for those who want to optimise their health but have additional challenges such as complex autoimmune and metabolic issues, explaining exactly how you can achieve optimum health and the results you want

This is also a great opportunity to hear about the vital role sodium plays in the body and why it’s so important to rehydrate and remineralise in the right way

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Individuals can eat a zero carbohydrate diet and still have elevated blood glucose levels due to hepatic glucose release in response to high levels of stress and poor sleep
Eating particular foods can register as a stress response due to the process of eating it or how it interfaces with the gut biome
The state of ketosis is subjective to the individual and the volume and intensity of their activity and individually how metabolic healthy and flexible they are
Every nerve impulse and muscle contraction is driven by changes in sodium potassium status both inside and outside of cells
Elevated insulin levels from overeating and intake of refined foods can be the driver for hypertension
When people clean up their diet they reduce both their carbohydrate load and sodium intake
Heat, humidity, and physical activity all increase the demands for good rehydration
When you reach the required level of sodium your appetite for sodium rich foods decreases
All nutrients and micronutrients have a flavour but only sodium has a specific taste receptor. Sodium rich foods are usually more protein dense and more nutrient dense
The 7 Day Carb Test helps you to determine how you handle the glycaemic load of carbohydrates
From person to person the carbohydrate response can be very different, everyone varies and you need to focus on your total glucose displacement over time

BEST MOMENTS

‘I shifted into a low carb diet and it was magic for me’

‘When you are intolerant to a particular food it results in stress for the body’

‘People rarely have an accurate insight into their blood glucose responses to different foods, the 7 Day Carb Test provides this so that individuals can make informed decisions’

The Secrets to Happy Hormones, Vibrant Energy & Longevity for Women with Dr Patrick Flynn May 12, 2022

Dr Patrick Flynn founder of The Wellness Way and International best-selling author talks with Angela about how it’s possible to, as a woman, to experience the menopausal transition as a life experience without pain and successfully move into your golden years when you understand and maintain the right hormonal balance for your body

When you are accurately tested and know the levels of your hormones, make sure you have good nutrition, keep moving in the right way at the right time and recognise the impact mental stress has on your body, you can achieve happy hormones and this episode takes an in depth look at exactly what you can do to optimise all aspects of your health and hormonal balance

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Oestrogen is a term used to describe a group of hormones and when particular oestrogen hormones become elevated it can lead to PTOS and endometriosis
Environment toxins, trauma and deficiency all play a part in creating an imbalance of hormones
High levels of stress and trying to out-perform men can cause a very poor hormonal state in women that in turn leads to many diseases
A plant based diet can mean deficiency for women who need organ meats, rich in nutrients for their hormone levels
Testosterone is not an end stage hormone it can convert to other form including conversion to oestrogens
A woman’s cycle means the body changes around four times every month and each part of the cycle has different physical and psychological demands
In the third week, days 13 to 22, you need to reduce all stress because there is a high demand for progesterone and lowering it can cause serious illness
Humans are creatures of movement so continuing to move is important, it’s how you do it and the intensity that matters
When you move into menopause you need to use your adrenals and fat to produce the majority of your hormones
Get it right and you can have better sex than ever before, post menopause
The purpose of cycles is fertility and every time there is a cycle eggs are lost, so as girls are beginning their cycles earlier the period of being fertile as adults is decreasing
Getting your hormone balance right will restore your physiology back to normal, to where it should be

BEST MOMENTS

‘The third week of a woman’s cycle is the most intensive thing and they really need to take care of themselves’

‘It’s easier to keep a woman healthy in menopause than when she is cyclic’

‘Combining high-intensity exercise with menstruation will drain your hormones’

The Change Agent: How to Support Your Mind, Body & Spirit Through Times of Stress and Resistance with Adam Thompson Apr 25, 2022

Adam Thompson, founder and CEO of Zaag is with Angela talking about the creation and development of Zaag, a unique formulation of vitamins, minerals and adaptogens designed to support through periods of change

Adam is bringing an innovative holistic approach to daily supplements and has removed the wellness admin that often becomes a chore, potentially leading to a lack of continuation with a wellness supplement regime

As a change agent, Zaag can make the difference that really matters and help anyone to move through change in a better way.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Its change that needs to be supported because change triggers stress through the general adaptation syndrome
The first phase is fight or flight, the second phase is resistance and the third is exhaustion
If the body can be supported with the right nutrients to extend the resistance phase then it’s possible to complete the change in your life without burning out
Liquids have a much better bioavailability
Working with natural behaviours meant a definitive timeline for taking the supplement to create a habit
People at the end of a decade statistically go through bigger changes than at other points in their lives
The adaptogenic ingredients like snow fungus stimulate the body’s own collagen production cycle
It’s about working with the body from the state it’s in allowing the body to gently receive the nutrients
Holy basil has a number of benefits that focus on the alleviation of stress
It can protect tissue and organs from environmental stress and has benefits for memory and cognitive development
One of the targets was to remove the wellness admin that can become a chore and having a daily dose for six months in quantities that mean people will see the benefit has been the key

BEST MOMENTS

I’m always stacking my hacks to get the most in, in the time available

‘Your body and my body can resist for any given amount of time depending on the variables’

‘We are getting people coming at Zaag from different spaces’

ABOUT THE GUEST

Adam Thompson

A self-described Curious Life Calibrator, Adam is the founder of ZAAG. Supplements and is passionate about supporting and facilitating change. Having worked across multiple industries and functions, Adam is no stranger to change, yet it was only when he left his previous role as Managing Director of one of the UK’s fastest growing grocery start-ups and landed in Bali for a sabbatical that he really felt the effects of it.

Disinterested, fatigued and low in mood, the reality that he was burnt out started to dawn on him and he started to investigate the supplement space. Not satisfied with what he found, he has spent the last two years developing an entirely different proposition which helps to support the three vital wellness zones (brain, body, and spirit) during times of change, but crucially also overcomes the problems he identified with taking supplementation.

The Secrets to Gut Health & Optimal Microbial Diversity with Dr Megan Rossi Apr 18, 2022

In this episode, Angela is talking with Dr Megan Rossi ‘The Gut Health Doctor’, one of the most influential gut health specialists internationally. A practicing Dietitian and Nutritionist for the last decade with an award-winning PhD in gut health and leading research fellow at King’s College

They discuss why you need to nourish not only your cells but also the trillions of micro-organisms in the body and how the diversity diet is the key to optimising your microbiome

With five key principles, it’s about what you can add to your diet and the impact of diversity in plants optimising your gut health to support your body

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The diversity diet is a practical diet and is about adding things in to support all aspects of good health. Enjoy mostly plants and make it diverse
Science shows those people who have more plant diversity in their diet have better gut health
Eat whole not refined, where you can and think about the community aspect of food – tasting, pausing, and enjoying
Think about what you are including versus what you are excluding
The more healthy food you eat the more you crave it
Eating dietary fibre means your gut bacteria can break it down and access chemicals that are beneficial across the body
If you are struggling with hormones adding more plants to your diet can help to bring back balance
There is good evidence that, if there is a family history of eczema, taking a specific probiotic during pregnancy and for a period beyond can significantly reduce the likelihood of eczema
Stress can be a trigger for many inflammatory conditions including gut symptoms
People who include gluten in their diet have a more diverse range of bacteria than those who restrict it unnecessarily
If you are cutting something from your diet you need to think about what you are replacing it with
Many food additives are now being retested as our knowledge of gut microbiomes has increased
Having the whole food is always preferable to something processed
Adding more legumes into your diet can increase your life span by around two years

BEST MOMENTS

‘Food should be enjoyed, and studies show, if we have pleasure in food we are likely to live longer and stick to healthy eating principles’

‘Enjoy your favourite foods and add in plant foods’

‘Those who eat at least thirty different plants have better gut health’

Fix Your Thyroid with Dr Amie Hornaman Apr 11, 2022

In this episode hear great content from Dr Amie Hornaman, ‘The Thyroid Fixer’ about how to optimise your thyroid health and understand some of the triggers that can ‘flip’ the autoimmune switch

The thyroid gland and its role in the body can be massively misunderstood but as the ‘master gland’ it has a pivotal role so understanding the stressors and ways you can support and optimise your thyroid health can make a huge difference to your overall health and well-being and Dr Amie shares invaluable advice that everyone can use to effectively support and optimise their thyroid health

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The thyroid gland is the master gland in your body, controlling cells, organs, and their function
Any type of stressor can turn on the autoimmune switch
The gluten molecule is very similar to the thyroid gland so eating gluten can trigger autoimmune attacks
Insulin resistance can be related to a non-optimised thyroid gland
Carbs and processed foods increase insulin resistance but there are good and bad ways to do low carbs
Thyroid glandulars and synthetics can be used to improve thyroid hormone levels
It’s about replacing the hormones that are no longer being made by your body
Nutrients like iodine, selenium and magnesium are supportive nutrients that help with the conversion of T3 to T4
When you are experiencing symptoms it’s a road sign to look into things more
If you are in the beginning stages its’ possible to treat naturally, in the later stage’s medication will be part of the treatment
Suppressing the immune system can trigger a variety of viruses to express themselves
Chemical toxin exposure has increased to a point where it is a stressor on the body and triggering more autoimmune conditions
If you have any symptoms listen to what your body is telling you and take action
Gluten isn’t good for anyone and you need to eliminate processed foods

BEST MOMENTS

‘Your symptoms are signs given to you by your body to look deeper’

‘Don’t stop asking questions and keep going until you find the answers’

‘Insulin is a hormone we need for life but in excess, it is the fat storage hormone’

How to Overcome Fear and Manifest Your Dreams Apr 04, 2022

Dan Matthews is a hugely renowned global public speaker sharing his expertise in universal laws, thoughts, and goal setting. He is dedicated to bringing value to others by helping them to expand their personal lives through a greater understanding of the science of personal development

In this, in-depth conversation with Angela, he discusses the creation of our thoughts, how to focus on your goal and how to take action to manifest your dreams as your wish fulfilled. He also explains how to effectively overcome the obstacles – fear, analysis, comfort, and distraction that you may face on your journey to getting where you want to be

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Spiritual development for setting and achieving goals is linked to change
Change is a transformation - getting from where you are now to where you want to be, a journey
You need to be to imagine where you want to be. It all starts with a thought and desire about where you want to be
Your thoughts generate the energy and we are all connected deeply at a sub atomical level
We share electrical fields between all of our sub atomical particles. Subatomic particles have been shown to have entanglement - communication between the particles
You need to have a clear picture of the person you want to be and take action
If something happens in your imagination its real to your subconscious mind
Embrace the feeling and emotion of having achieved your goal
Thinking is using your thoughts in a way that is changing your life
Everything in your life has been created through your imagination and your relationship with your imagination
Each day is part of your journey and reflecting on what went well is recognising the small steps that are taken every day will get you to your goal
You have to have the courage to take the steps and every step you take towards your goal is a step into the unknown
Take the time at the start of the day to consider who you want to be and what difference you will make

BEST MOMENTS

‘The conscious awareness that’s in you and me is the same conscious awareness that fills the entire universe’

‘When you are in alignment with your goal and taking focused action that’s when things will happen’

‘Focus on the feeling of having achieved the goal’

The important words are “I am”

The Essential Oils Menopause Solution With Dr Mariza Snyder Mar 28, 2022

Dr Mariza Snyder is a functional practitioner, women’s hormone expert, author of multiple best-selling books and host of the hugely successful ‘Essentially You’ podcast

In this episode, she explains the vital role essential oils can play in helping women successfully navigate the changing hormones of perimenopause and menopause and discusses the importance of being metabolically flexible

When you have an understanding of the transition through perimenopause and menopause you can be more intentional and create a better plan for proactively moving forward prioritising what really makes a difference

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Phase one of the perimenopause spectrum starts in your mid to late thirties as progesterone begins to drop
Phase two is around your mid-forties when you can experience shortened cycles and some anovulatory cycles where you are not ovulating at all
Your late forties can be a very tumultuous and chaotic time with mood swings and night sweats
Menopause is defined as 12 months without a cycle and when you move into menopause many of the symptoms may decline
Oestrogen is a major insulin protector when you lose oestrogen you become less insulin sensitive and more insulin resistant
Being metabolically flexible means, you can leverage all of your energy all of the time and is especially important as you lose the protection of progesterone and oestrogen
The more you understand the transition the better the plan you can have to proactively move forward
Peppermint and citrus will give an energy boost to both mind and body, citrus has limonene that activates the lymphatic system and peppermint increases energy to the brain
Floral essential oils have properties that calm the mind and relax the system creating a feeling of bliss
For sleep and to calm the internal chatter use a combination of lavender and vetiver
You need to take a multi-faceted approach and prioritise what you are doing daily to love your body

BEST MOMENTS

‘Dialling in your metabolic flexibility is so critical’

‘We all deserve quick wins and moments of self-care and love and essential oils can provide this’

‘Essential oils are phenomenal in shifting your mood’

Sleep quality matters, the timing of your sleep matters and the regularity of your sleep matters. In this episode, Greg and Angela discuss the factors that impact sleep and how you can optimise your sleep through intermittent fasting and bringing your circadian rhythm into alignment

People respond to a deficiency in sleep in different ways and Greg shares great content on the factors and variables that affect sleep and the steps you can take to achieve a consistent positive sleep routine and enhance your mental and physical performance

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Recent research indicates that being under slept can lead to individuals consuming more with nutrients taken in towards the end of the day more likely to be deposited in fat tissue
People tend to snack more after insufficient sleep and can be more impulsive in their behaviours
Light exposure is a key variable and exposing yourself to strong light will give you a boost
Caffeine can be helpful but needs to be used in an intelligent and informed way
Taking melatonin at a certain time of day can reduce circadian misalignment and as a result, there are improvements to metabolic health
There are variables in people - at one end of the scale there are genetically short sleepers and at the other genetically long sleepers
Try to do activities during the day that will support your sleep health and general health
Your core body temperature drops when you sleep and is at its lowest around two hours before you wake in the morning
Your sleep is regulated by two different processes and their interaction sleep homeostasis and your circadian clock
Chronotypes are distributed all the way around the 24-hour clock
To make your overnight sleep restorative it's possible it's important to not eat in the two hours prior to sleep
Exercise is really important for sleep health, exercise can positively support sleep health and completing exercise outside in daylight increases the positive impact
Light exposure is key
Turning off your smartphone at least 30 minutes before sleep is hugely beneficial for restorative sleep

BEST MOMENTS

‘Your sleep affects your body composition’

‘Creatin is an amazing supplement that has positive benefits on many aspects of health’

‘Your diet composition and how you distribute your food intake throughout a 24 hour period can influence your insulin resistance ‘

Biohacking Beauty: Regenerative Skincare & The Science of Looking Younger with Young Goose Founder & CEO Amitay Eshel Mar 15, 2022

Angela is talking to Young Goose Co-founder and CEO Amitay Eshal about the science of looking younger and how your skin can, with the right skincare, have what it needs to repair, restore, and regenerate.

You can optimise how your skin behaves by providing it with the right building blocks and this is a great opportunity to hear in detail about how Young Goose, as a biohacking skincare brand, make the best products for your skin to function well and not only appear younger but behave younger

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Our goal is to optimise and bi-hack how our skin functions
We took the building blocks of NAD because the body knows what to do with these and our products support the skin to produce collagen and elastin
We are asking the skin to do something that it did when it was younger -repair well by producing collagen and taking care of the DNA and epigenetic damage caused by pollution, UV and blue light
It’s the small incremental unrepaired damage that we call ageing that our products are tackling
We’ve been able to isolate molecules from algae that downrate mTOR and progerin and have been able to make a product that reverses some of the ageing processes of the skin
Moisturisers and creams provide overall support for your skin. Serums are the way to tackle specific issues
We have matched biomimetic lipids, oils that are almost identical to your own but that don’t oxidise to help repair the skin
We have found that NAD peaks around eight hours after application
We make products that increase your own hyaluronic acid production
Our community is interested in natural products with the highest efficacy we don’t use preservatives or fragrances
Coming from a bio-hacking stamp we are looking to increase the skin's ability to produce naturally what it needs

BEST MOMENTS

‘It makes your skin not only appear younger but behave younger’

We try to be as natural as we can, as long as we can get the actives where we need them to be effective’

‘Keep yourself optimised so that the products really work’

‘Our retinol serum is able to rebuild the skin’s protective layer’

Bio-identical hormone replacement therapy is unregulated with NICE guidelines and you need to go to a compounding pharmacy
Body identical hormone replacement therapy can be prescribed by a doctor on the NHS
You become more insulin resistant as you age because you start to lose your oestrogen
Oestrogen has over eight hundred functions in the body and there are receptors for it on every organ
The body will start gaining weight because a type of oestrogen can be made from fat cells
Research shows that women who replace their hormones for ten years post-menopause are better off replacing their hormones than not replacing them
Research in Arizona has shown that women who take bioidentical oestrogen replacements for six years or longer into menopause had a 75% reduction in getting Alzheimer’s and dementia
If you are struggling with your hormone balance, test first and work with someone who is knowledgeable about bio-identical therapy
Know that you don’t have to suffer, hot flushes, lack of libido, night sweats, anxiety and depression can all go away if they are symptoms from perimenopause and losing your hormones

Stress, Resilience & Peak Mental Performance with Antony Haynes Feb 01, 2022

Angela talks with Antony Haynes, a registered nutritional therapist with over 28 years of clinical experience and expertise. He is best known for his early implementation of the principles of Functional Medicine and as the author of the bestselling books ‘The Insulin Factor’ and ‘The Food Intolerance Bible’

Understanding more about the science behind how to optimise your health and performance is key and Antony discusses how to nourish your cells for better resilience and why achieving balance and connecting with yourself are vital in resolving stress and reaching peak mental performance

KEY TAKEAWAYS

When you nourish your cells you have better cellular resilience, if you have more cellular resilience you have more organ resilience
The world in which we exist is created by the thoughts that we have
We need to achieve a balance between stimulating and calming neurotransmitters
Neurotransmitters influence the signalling to the hypothalamus and pituitary gland, the composer and conductor of the hormonal system
The most powerful excitatory neurotransmitter is glutamate with GABA and serotonin the main inhibitory neurotransmitters
In a 24 hour period you need a balance of parasympathetic dominance and sympathetic dominance
The more hours you have ‘on’ the more you deplete the neurotransmitters of calm - GABA
Concentrating on your breathing and gratitude can make a massive difference when you are experiencing a stressful situation
Inflammation directly stops serotonin creation in the brain
Ultra-processed food by definition is devoid of nourishment and the more ultra-processed food you have the more inflammation there will be
Taurine is a powerful antioxidant and a precursor to GABA that works together with magnesium
Excess stress directly impends the ability of magnesium to get back inside the cells
Stress defeats magnesium and when you are stressed magnesium can’t get back into your cells

BEST MOMENTS

‘By optimally nourishing yourself you improve your resilience on every level’

‘Breathing out instantly engages the parasympathetic system’

‘Magnesium is nature’s way of resolving stress’

‘You must spend time connecting with yourself’

How To Achieve Beauty, Fitness & Longevity with Dr Gabrielle Lyon Jan 25, 2022

Dr Gabrielle Lyon discusses the crucial role muscle plays in achieving longevity and body composition and explains how to optimise your diet in a bio-individual way for you

Muscle is the largest endocrine organ in the body and is responsible for the trajectory of ageing and muscle centric medicine focuses on how you can optimise this system to improve your metabolism and build better body composition.

Dr Gabrielle explains the pivotal role skeletal muscle plays and how the muscle system can improve and change body composition, help you achieve longevity and combat disease if you learn how to optimise it with the right nutrition and exercise

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Understanding that skeletal muscle is the origin of the problem means you can effectively treat the problem
Muscle begins to decline from the age of thirty
Individuals who are very active are those who are able to maintain muscle quality
You need to understand the exact requirement for protein to be effective in

body re-composition

Muscle is the only organ you can really add to in a significant way in the body
Skeletal muscle improves survivability and any need the body has for additional amino acid is drawn from the skeletal muscle
Muscle is a nutrient-sensing organ and senses the protein and branch amino acids being taken into the body
As you age the efficiency of sensing the nutrients decreases and muscle becomes more insulin resistant
You can always improve the quality of your life by improving strength training and you can also lay down new tissue if you are getting enough calories and the right type of protein
You lose muscle and your metabolism slows as you age so specific targeted strategies are required
For body re-composition, you have to control the calories and optimise protein
To optimise body composition and muscle mass, as you age, amino acids need to rise to a specific point
You need to hit the leucine threshold to trigger a response in the muscle, building new tissue
The priority around ageing is high-quality protein and creating a flexible plan that focuses on this
You need to decide on whether to go with carbohydrates or fats alongside the protein

BEST MOMENTS

‘Now that everything is very convenient the capacity to retain muscle requires specific strategies’

‘Muscle is an organ of longevity

‘The stronger you are the higher your capacity to survive’

The Simple, Fun Science Backed Method to Get Your Best Body Ever with Mike Matthews Jan 18, 2022

Mike Matthews, certified personal trainer, best-selling author, and founder of Legion, the number one brand for all-natural sports supplements, talks with Angela about building your dream body and what it takes to achieve your ideal physique whether you are a man or woman

With a science-based approach to losing weight and gaining muscle, Mike explains, in detail, exactly how to go about setting up the right nutrition and training to sculpt your body and achieve the outcomes you want. He discusses the science behind approaches such as flip-flopping and why it’s important to find the approach that works for you.

If you are looking for great informative content on how to get started, or successfully continue your journey to your ultimate physique then this episode is a must-listen

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The optimal range for healthy body fat in most women is 18%-25% this and can be maintained indefinitely if you do the most important things mostly right most of the time, but you don’t have to be perfect
If you are trying to lose both fat and build muscle set up your diet for losing fat and then train in the gym to build muscle
The primary function of training is not fat loss but it does support the process
Most fat loss comes from nutrition through controlling calories and protein
The primary role of training is to build and maintain muscle
Using mini-gaining and mini-cutting phases, flip-flopping between a calorie surplus and a calorie deficit means you will be on an upward trajectory gaining momentum until you achieve your maintenance physique.
The flip flop approach can be helpful to women as they can minimise their fat gain as they sculpt their physique
Research shows it’s just as effective to go to just before the point of failing at a rep as it is to push to the maximum
You can gain muscle working in any rep range but it requires a certain amount of volume
Working in a variety of rep ranges has been shown to be more effective for strength gain
Walking is one of the most underrated forms of cardio
You should aim for your moderate cardio to be around half the amount of the time you are training your muscles
You are acutely stressing your body when you are training so it will need time to recover
The goal is to be able to handle more stress but to achieve this you have to work with the limitations you have right now
You have to be in tune with your body and listen to it

BEST MOMENTS

‘The key to being strong and looking fit with muscle definition for women is in the body fat composition’

‘In the first year, you see major changes and improvements’

‘Walking is great and you can’t really overdo it

‘Most women have to work harder on their lower bodies to get what they want, for men it's usually the other way around’

Mastering Your Mindset for Real, Lasting Fat Loss with Brian Keane Jan 11, 2022

Brian Keane renowned expert in mindset and weight loss returns as a guest on the podcast to talk with Angela about the difference between discipline and motivation and how your ‘why’ and self-identity are the factors that really make the difference in fat loss

He discusses why his philosophy is all about finding a nutritional plan that works for you as an individual and how your mindset around nutrition is more important than the actual diet plan you are on.

Random training and random eating mean random results but consistency combined with understanding your ‘why’ and knowing who you are can bring you lasting results

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Discipline is consistently doing the things that support you with your goals
Every diet out there can work for you if you have the right mindset
If you can find a nutrition plan that has foods you enjoy is in alignment with your goals and you can do it alongside exercise you enjoy it’s a massive stepping stone towards success
How you feel shouldn’t determine what you do. It’s not about what you do when you feel motivated it’s about what you do consistently over time
A restrictive mindset doesn’t help, you need to rewire your mind and change the way you look at foods
The goal should be a nutritional plan that works for you, focusing on getting good sleep and doing some form of resistance training
The important hormones for fat loss are ghrelin ‘the hunger hormone’, the hormone leptin and cortisol
If your stress levels are too high and you are in an inflammatory state and you will not be able to utilise fat for fuel or build muscle
Resistance training is a key factor in achieving fat loss and making progress towards your goals
Connect with what you want, if body composition is the goal you need to understand the discipline of doing the work to get there
Connect with the result and the identity of who you are. Why you do things is what’s important, it’s a means to an end
You have to prime your identity for what you want and know there is always a price
How much do you want to achieve the goal and what price you are prepared to pay
to get it?
Consistently doing the right thing and doing more when you are feeling motivated will get you to your goal

BEST MOMENTS

‘When you ‘lean out’ and burn fat you are going to look tight and lean and sexy and have those lovely curves’

‘You find a way to do what you need to do consistently’

‘Ask yourself what you want to achieve and then look at what you need to do to get there’

Nootropics and Biohacking Your Brain with Australia’s Leading Biohacker, Lucas Aoun Jan 04, 2022

Lucas Aoun is Australia’s leading Biohacker with extensive experience researching Nootropics and other performance-enhancing compounds

He discusses with Angela specific Nootropics that can enhance focus and those that can help overcome procrastination and support with overcoming the fear response

Nootropics and their ability to enhance performance can really make a difference and this is an opportunity to hear great informative content about how to effectively bio-hack your brain for enhanced performance

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Neurotransmitters govern the ability to focus and not get distracted. The top two are dopamine and acetylcholine
Optimising dopamine function is about providing the brain with the pre cursers to make its own dopamine
Bromantane is a synthetic adaptogen that can help to combat stress and is restorative over time
Bromantane is smart in the way it works and over time will build up your threshold for releasing dopamine
Bromantane has a long half-life and takes time to be absorbed by the body providing longer periods of focus
The nootropic Uridine monophosphate is really good at defeating procrastination.
There is a range of nootropics specifically designed to banish the fear-based response
When you are nervous before an event there are key physiological events happening in the body, an increase in the sympathetic nervous system, higher levels of adrenalin and epinephrine and an increase in glutamate activity
Taurine is a nootropic that’s parasympathetic activating and Gaba promoting and lowers adrenaline
Blackseed oil has a component, thymoquinone, that research has shown can help reduce fear and modulate the Gaba system
Sprint training is the best form of exercise for hormonal output, particularly for men

BEST MOMENTS

‘Nootropics can target and upregulate the production of these two critical neurotransmitters’

‘If you’ve got a deadline to meet Uridine is my go to’

‘I like pushing the body to its maximum capacity, allowing for rest’

‘The more dysphoric your exercise the more euphoric you feel post exercise’

Biohacking Body Composition & Optimal Health with the UK’s Leading Biohacker, Tim Gray Dec 21, 2021

The UK’s leading biohacker and returning guest to the show Tim Gray talks with Angela about the importance of getting the fundamentals right on the journey to health optimisation

You need to understand what makes the body operate efficiently and then any other interference can be dealt with separately, Lifestyle is everything and achieving an optimal health mindset is about taking your body back to its core and implementing the things it needs to operate properly and then biohacking to move up to the next level

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The body is a self-adapting machine so the less you feed it the less you feel hungry, the more you feed it the hungrier you feel
Working out means moving every hour and exercising throughout the day
With processed food products your senses are being tricked into thinking it tastes amazing, with clean fruit, vegetables, fish, and meat your senses are able to determine if you need it or not
You should learn to use and trust your senses about what you need to eat
It’s okay to be silent and just think and this can be a game changer.
Having a morning routine and five minutes of silence has really accelerated my progress
My productivity has increased significantly with a good routine
If you stand on grass there is a physiological response with the free electrons helping to stabilise cortisol and lower feelings of anxiety and stress
Diet and gut health are the key, every symptom is a message telling you something
Optimised sleep is when your body repairs the damage so you need to get enough good sleep
If you are not hydrated or getting the right minerals you will not heal and your body and mind won’t be able to work effectively
The bio hacks you should be doing are about getting the fundamentals right – remove all processed food from your diet and get your gut optimised

BEST MOMENTS

‘The body is a very smart piece of machinery that we have been gifted

‘Standing on grass changes the way you feel, very quickly changing the electrical charge in the body’

‘You have to get the fundamentals right’

How to Upgrade Your Brain & Body with The Most Nutrient Dense Foods on the Planet with James Barry Founder of ‘Pluck’ Dec 14, 2021

James Barry founder of ‘Pluck’, celebrity chef, best-selling author and expert on offal talks to Angela about why we are currently missing the benefits of ancestral foods and the impact it has on our health

He discusses the widely held misconceptions around organ meat and how they contain many nutrients and vitamins that can support your nutritional health and well being

This is a great opportunity to understand more about the role of organ meats, their nutrient density and why we should all learn to listen to our bodies and eat more intuitively

KEY TAKEAWAYS

People have a misconception that organ meat is where the toxins are stored but this is not true they are a filtration system
Organ meats contain many nutrients and vitamins to support filtration in removing things
If the detoxification pathways of your body are working well then toxins leave the body
If toxins are stored it is mostly in the fat of the body
Across the world, we are mostly calorie-rich and nutrient deficient
Toxins are in the air, the water and in food so it’s vital your detoxification pathways are open and functioning efficiently
The industry is focused on growing beef as fast as possible and achieving the heaviest weight for profit but the health of the animal equals the health of you
You should use the product for finishing meals as any heat lowers the nutrient density
Micro dosing frequently does work and is a way of adjusting your taste buds
We are missing ancestral foods and Pluck is trying to bring these to diets in a modern way
They are many things we can be empowered by and looking at what we are eating should always be the place we start
When you remove processed foods from your diet your palate starts to change and you can taste things better
We need to listen to our bodies more and eat more intuitively

BEST MOMENTS

‘It’s a great way of enhancing the nutrient density’

‘I classify organ meats as Mother Nature’s multi vitamin’

‘Umami, the fifth sense is a taste that enhances the flavour of everything else’

Eat to Support Your Brain: Optimising Nutrition for ADHD and Autism Spectrum with Dr Rachel Gow Dec 07, 2021

Dr Rachel Gow, is a Nutritional Neuroscientist, Neuropsychologist and

Neurodevelopmental specialist who focuses on ADHD and Nutritional Neuroscience

Her book “Smart Foods for ADHD and Brain Health” explains the vital role nutrition plays in influencing cognitive function, behaviour and mood and in this episode, she discusses with Angela how you can effectively eat to support good brain health.

She explains how cognitive function is impacted when there is a deficit of the brain selective nutrients that underpin the function of the brain and shares great practical advice on how to achieve optimum nutrition for great brain health

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The fundamental role of nutrition is often overlooked but what you eat ultimately affects your brain structure and function at both molecular and cellular levels
65% of the dry weight of the adult brain and retina is made up of complex specialised and unique fats called lipids
It's estimated we have around a hundred billion neurones each coated in a myeline sheet made up of DHA insulating and aiding neurotransmission
A child with optimal DHA can break down a question, understand and compute an answer
A child with sub-optimal DHA will still be trying to figure out what the question is
We need DHA and EPA for brain function in self signalling and for the regulation of specific systems such as serotonin and dopamine
Serotonin governs feelings of well-being and happiness, dopamine is critical in motivation and feelings of pleasure and reward
Adequate Omega 3 supports both dopamine and serotonin systems functioning well
When dopamine is low individuals self-medicate to try and normalise the level by adding other things
The quality of the maternal diet is critical for the well-being of the mother and the development of the baby’s brain
It’s hypothesised that babies born prematurely miss out on the biomagnification process of fatty acids and lipids in the last trimester
There is a bi-directional relationship between the brain and the gut so the health of the gut is critical
We have to move beyond the prescription pad, combining strands of science to create a personalised, integrative approach

BEST MOMENTS

‘Your brain is an organ like the heart and there are specific nutrients required to fuel the brain and to keep it working optimally’

‘Gut health is critical for brain health’

‘A multidisciplinary approach combining strands of science provides an amazing insight into the complex relationships within the body’

How You Can Become Limitless with Katy Hill NLP Personal Development and Empowerment Coach Nov 30, 2021

Katy Hill started her career as a Blue Peter presenter and continued trailblazing hosting iconic shows across major TV networks and radio

She has always been passionate about her impact on the world and now as she continues her journey as an NLP personal development and empowerment coach, her why is to ignite others to own who they are, to be fierce, to be fearless and live their own limitless lives

We all put limiters on ourselves but when you are holding yourself back its only you who is losing out, within us all is the ability to be limitless it’s just about stepping into it and understanding the time is now

KEY TAKEAWAYS

It will be a waste if we go back to our old habits, we all have the opportunity to do things differently
Everyone has imposter syndrome it’s about learning how to turn it down, focus on why you are doing something and what you want to achieve
If you step through something the night before your brain knows what it needs to do
Hitting massive moments in your life strong and knowing who you are is really important
I fully focus on the thing I’m doing in that moment, if I’m working I focus completely on that, if I’m with my family my focus is entirely on them
There is a real opportunity to design what you want life to look like
It’s important to realise the impact you are having on the world. You are the only one who can do the thing you are called to do
Investing in self-care is about showing up in the best way you can
Be careful about what you are consuming on social media, make sure it's filling you up not dragging you down
You are in control of your life all of the time and are constantly choosing who and what you are listening to and your reaction to it
When we individually and collectively step into who we are we are unstoppable
What other people think of you is none of your business, you can’t be a people pleaser
The phrase ‘time is now’ says it all, don’t put off anything in your life

BEST MOMENTS

‘We are all choosing how we are showing up in any given moment’

‘Managing the transitions within your day is a huge achievement’

‘Learning to turn down the voice in your head and turn up your inner power is game changing’

Radiance Revealed: Skin Health and Transition Through Menopause with Dr Jen Haley Nov 23, 2021

Dr Jen Haley, dermatologist, and host of the ‘Radiance Revealed’ podcast returns to the High-Performance Health podcast to talk more about building radiant skin and in this episode discusses how transitioning through menopause impacts your skin

She shares more invaluable advice on skin health across all areas of the body and how our skin, as the largest organ in the body is a visible indicator of what’s going on deep inside.

Radiant skin is a result of all aspects of good health and every choice we make, every day determines how we look so understanding what makes a difference is key, listen in and find out more

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The eye area is some of the thinnest skin on the body and will be the most sensitive to ageing
Any breakdown of collagen will be most visible in the eye area because there is less collagen
PRF can be used to stimulate collagen to rebuild between the skin and the blood vessels
You can use retinols less frequently and with a lower strength around the eyes. It depends on your receptors for retinoids and your individuality
Exfoliation is important to allow products to penetrate
Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance in your skin. Using a combination hyaluronic acid is the most effective
Putting foreign substances in your body has a higher risk than using natural substances
Weight training and adequate good quality protein are the key to keeping volume in your face and good shape in your body
Weightlifting makes a big difference in helping with crepiness of the skin
Vaginal dryness typically happens when your hormones drop, it’s a common problem that’s not talked about but there are some good treatments available
The vagina is a muscle and like all muscles will atrophy and weaken if not used
Healthy fats are the key to hydration in the skin
Every choice we make every day determines how we look

BEST MOMENTS

‘Your health is a vital part in achieving a life you love’

‘A radiant glow is a result of all aspects of good health’

‘I treat the areas around my eyes in the same way as the rest of my face’

Managing Blood Sugar & Enhancing Longevity with Anttonni Aniebonam Nov 16, 2021

Anttoni Aniebonam is the Co-Founder and CEO of Veri – a food intelligence company that helps people understand their optimal diet to improve the state of their metabolic health.

He talks with Angela about how Veri works and why understanding which foods impact your blood sugar levels is key in achieving good body composition, health and longevity

There are many small things you can do to support good metabolic health including effective food pairing and this episode provides great content and insight into the huge importance of understanding where your metabolic health is and how you can improve and optimise it

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The sensor is like having a bio lab in the back of your arm monitoring your glucose levels every 5 minutes as it tracks your interstitial fluid
We talk about what we eat instead of how we eat which has a huge impact
It’s about understanding what’s on your plate and Veri scores every item of food. The scoring data helps people to stay within their optimal range
The App takes all the background information to set the optimal range for an individual. The range is dynamic and personalised to the individual
Sleep has a huge impact on glucose levels and has to be factored in
Glucose impacts many areas, it’s what the modern human runs on. 90% of human body energy production happens in the citric cycle through glucose and ATP production
Your glucose spikes differently according to the type of exercise you are doing
True metabolic flexibility means you can recover quickly from exercise with your blood sugar rapidly returning to normal
Everyone wants to understand where they are, the state of their metabolic health and how they can improve it
Traditionally there has been a binary view but at Veri, we see it as a spectrum with your body sending you signals
We want to help people distinguish where they are now and how they can get back to their optimal place

BEST MOMENTS

‘It’s an interface I’ve really enjoyed using’

‘We believe seeing is believing and that’s what we are trying to manifest in the App every

single day’

‘When we are looking at calories in and calories out we are not looking at the full picture’

ABOUT THE GUEST

Anttoni Aniebonam is the Co-Founder and CEO of Veri – a food intelligence company that helps people understand their optimal diet to improve the state of their metabolic health.

Numbers-wise, Veri raised $4 million in funding to start shipping its glucose sensor and has over 50,000 people on its waitlist.

“I'll never forget the pain and confusion I endured momentarily losing my health in my teens. An injury changed my outlook on life and brought with it various issues related to weight management and wellbeing. I lost touch with my body forcing me to get to know it again.

I tracked calories, cycled macros, tested out various diets. Through trial and error, I got back to balance. Stronger than ever.

Throughout the journey, I experienced first-hand, the pain of using the poor and ineffective tools, the misinformation, and the one-size-fits-all guidance of nutrition. And also how the healthcare system is unwilling to transform and *actually* help us get healthier.

Funnily, ever since my teens, I've been captivated to solve the crisis of poor health. It started with me fighting my own battles. Today it's us helping you fight yours. To help you intrinsically know your body. Realize how unique it is and what it favours –and then finally unlock a new level of wellbeing.

Thinking back now, my misfortune has been my biggest blessing”.

Breaking Limiting Beliefs and Unlocking Your Inner Power with Polly Bateman Nov 09, 2021

Polly Bateman is a Mindset and Performance Coach who helps people to unlock their inner power and get liberated from negative patterns of behaviour and the limiting beliefs and barriers in their lives.

In this fascinating conversation, she talks with Angela about how your mindset interacts with your physiology and how to overcome your limiting beliefs

She shares great information on how as humans we are all brilliant on the inside and can do anything because there is no resistance but we look outside to justify who we are and see a reflection of ourselves that we make real leading to limiting beliefs.

A positive thought repeated becomes a thought pattern that becomes a belief and you can be brilliant if you learn how to become a gatekeeper for your thoughts

KEY TAKEAWAYS

When your thinking is poor in one area and you don’t have clarity it slows you down physically, you will be unable to perform as you want to
Integrity in your life is about keeping your life in order
The physiology on any part of your thinking that isn’t aligned with who you truly are will create a physical response that will alter your energetic energy wave
As human beings our birth right is to feel happy and good our natural state of being is peaceful
The only thing that moves us from our natural state of thinking is what we observe and what we make it mean
How someone is behaving is about how they are feeling
Inside we are brilliant and can do anything, there is no resistance
We look outside to justify who we are and see a reflection of ourselves and then we make it real
It only takes seventeen seconds of positive thinking to start to turn things around
You have to become a gatekeeper for your thoughts, ask yourself is this thought taking me in the direction I want to go?
Think about what you allow into your life, where’s your line and how is it serving you?
The growth that you have stays with you and the greatest investment you ever make is in yourself
You will go further than you ever believed when you realise it stops and starts with you
Whatever your destination it’s the journey that counts

BEST MOMENTS

‘You have to get emotional about what you want’

‘Confusion is a word we use when we don’t want to be responsible and would rather the decision is made for us’

‘We pull back from being brilliant’

‘Tune in to what you want when you wake and when you go to sleep’

Intermittent Fasting Truths & Mistakes with Cynthia Thurlow Oct 25, 2021

Cynthia Thurlow CEO and founder of the Everyday Wellness project is a nurse practitioner, international public speaker, a globally recognised expert in intermittent fasting and nutritional health and the host of the ‘Everyday Wellness’ podcast

Her extensive expertise and experience are focused on empowering people to live their most optimal lives and she talks with Angela about the power of being metabolically flexible and how it can be achieved, whatever your age.

Having a healthy lifestyle is one of the best things you can give your body and this is a great opportunity to hear valuable content about intermittent fasting, its role in building metabolic health and being proactive, not reactive with your health

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Metabolic flexibility means you can efficiently manage your blood sugar and switch between using carbs and fats as a fuel source
Metabolic flexibility is the key on many levels for health and longevity
If you have trouble losing weight it can be because your blood sugar is dis-regulated
We need to eat carbs and fats but most of us are eating the wrong foods at the wrong time and far too frequently
The strategies for maintaining weight as you approach menopause are very different to those used in your twenties and thirties
Lifestyle medicine is a huge focus in staying healthy. A lot of people come to fasting because of changes in body composition but stay for the other benefits because it makes them feel good
More of us need to listen intrinsically to our bodies and what they are trying to tell us
Protein keeps you satiated. You need to flip the switch and start the day with protein, not dessert
It’s critically important to maintain your muscle mass as you age. Muscle is the organ of longevity
Lifting weights is one of the best ways to help with insulin sensitivity
The more muscle mass you have the more flexibility you have metabolically.
You have to plan for recovery days to allow the body to repair, exercise smarter not harder
It’s about being strategic about when you are having carbs and protein
You have to do what works for your body, small changes incrementally can make a big difference

BEST MOMENTS

‘Metabolic flexibility is harnessing the way our bodies are intrinsically designed to do well and be most efficient’

‘When you are hitting your protein macros, you are satiated’

‘Lifting weights is the most important thing you can do as you are getting older’

The Oral Microbiome and Why Your Mouth is the Gateway to Optimal Health with Dr Simon Chard Oct 18, 2021

Dr Simon Chard is an award-winning cosmetic dentist, co-founder of zero waste oral health brand PÄRLA and host of the One Small Change podcast.

With dental decay the most common disease in the world in 2021 and the number one cause of children being admitted into hospital in the UK understanding what it takes to achieve good oral health is vital.

He shares great information about everyday preventative measures that can be taken and the importance of starting good dental routines early with children. The mouth is a window on the rest of the body so improving your oral health will improve your overall health, listen in, and find out how to get started

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The mouth is the upper end of the GI tract so provides a good insight into what’s going on in the rest of the body
The dose level of fluoride in toothpaste is clinically effective for reducing decay but is at a low enough level that it is non-toxic to the body
People don’t have any idea of how much toothpaste to use, the tablet format means you use exactly the right amount
Fluoride is more effective against dental decay than gum disease
Brushing your teeth well and regularly is the best preventative measure against gum disease and for good oral health
If you have uncontrolled diabetes you are more likely to have gum disease and if you have gum disease you are more likely to have diabetes
Bleeding gums are because there is bacteria on the surface of the gum and there is an inflammatory process going on
Flossing is one of the least well up taken procedures in the UK
Parents should instil good dental routines in children early on
By improving your oral health, you improve your overall general health
99% of chewing gums are plastic but plant-based alternatives are becoming more available
It’s the constituents of your saliva that are beneficial to dental health and the more saliva you have the better
The shocking fact is that every toothpaste tube you ever used still exists on the planet
If we can reduce the impact of toothpaste tubes in the environment, it’s a difference we can all make easily

BEST MOMENTS

‘Fluoride, for me, is a non-negotiable because I don’t want to have cavities’

‘The mouth is the window to the rest of the body’

‘Dental decay is an acute problem, it’s not a historic problem it’s an acute day to day problem now’

Hair Loss, Hormones, Stress and Skin with Dr Carrie Jones Oct 11, 2021

Dr Carrie Jones chief medical director at ‘Dutch Test is an expert in women’s hormones and health and talks with Angela about how you can understand more about your hormones, how they are working and the potential impact of factors such as stress

Hair loss and challenges with skin can be indicators that there is an imbalance or issue with hormones and this episode has great content for anyone who wants to understand more about the role hormones play in achieving optimum health

KEY TAKEAWAYS

DUTCH is an acronym for Dried Urine Test for Comprehensive Hormones. It allows a deeper look at hormones and their pathways
The saliva test is a more focused look at awakening cortisol. Cortisol’s number one job is to get more and make more glucose
Oestrogen has to be processed and in the process, is converted into metabolites
There are three parts to the process of detoxification of oestrogen and each phase plays an important role
When you take Ic3 supplements or eat foods from the brassica family the stomach acid breaks it apart and creates DIM (diindolylmethane) and this takes the oestrogen pushes it preferentially down the 2 pathway
Alcohol has to be processed and if you are a woman with high oestrogen drinking can result in the liver preferentially processes the alcohol affecting the processing of oestrogen
You can have normal levels of oestrogen on testing but be filled with oestrogen mimicking chemicals that are close enough in composition to unlock the oestrogen receptors
Now we have thousands of chemicals in everyday use
The 5alpha pathway converts the intergenic hormones into the very potent androgen DHT
You make melatonin during the night and it is a powerful antioxidant and influences the
onset of sleep
Intermittent fasting can help you to stop eating throughout the day as any food intake affect your blood sugar
Don’t be sedentary the body likes rhythms and the biggest rhythm we have is the light and dark cycle
The light and dark rhythm affects all other body rhythms and habits

BEST MOMENTS

‘The cortisol awakening response should push you into an alert state’

‘It’s such an amazing test especially when combined with other data’

‘DIM is where the magic happens’

Hormones, Weight Loss & Miracle Mindset with JJ Virgin Sep 27, 2021

JJ Virgin is a multi-best-selling author, nutrition expert and passionate advocate of eating and exercising smarter. In this episode, she talks with Angela about the power of the right mindset and creating your future self along with great content about how to successfully achieve weight loss.

Dieting can become less effective as we age and JJ discusses the barriers that can get in the way of weight loss and the way to effectively detox and reset your system for a better future.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Mindset is a muscle and having a growth mindset can make all the difference
We can all control how we show up and how we perceive things
If you don’t create your future self it will be created for you
Everything starts with mindset and when you are in a place where you don’t think you are good enough you hold yourself back
When failure isn’t an option and your ‘why’ is so big you find a way to make it happen
There are a range of factors that can get in the way of weight loss
Stress lowers serotonin and leads to cravings for sugar and can cause insulin resistance so you feel hungrier
We have made it acceptable to have more body fat but fat is not benign it has its own endocrine system making you more inflamed and causing more toxins in your system
Toxins lower your metabolic rate and cause hormone disruption
If you are extreme dieting and doing lots of cardio you are damaging your metabolism and slowing your metabolic rate
We need to look at how we use diets and learn to use them therapeutically in the short term to help understand what we should put into our bodies every day to achieve good health
You have to detox to lose fat and be able to reset
Get everything out of your diet and find your new normal through bringing things back one by one and understanding what affects you
Make the commitment to your future self that you are the most important thing

BEST MOMENTS

‘We need to use diets to connect the dots so we know what we should be eating, what works best for us’

‘It helps to really un-process your diet’

‘It is critical that we all think about what is ours to do and how we show up because that’s what we have control of’

Women’s Biohacking & Unleashing the Beast in Women with Helen Guilluame, founder of Wild AI Sep 20, 2021

Helene Guillaume founder and CEO of Wild AI talks with Angela about the development of technology that means women can optimise health, performance, vitality and creativity by utilising the power of AI to understand their female physiology

Wild AI helps women to understand how to align with the menstrual cycle throughout its changing lifespan by giving them ways to learn about and respond to it.

When you understand your physiology and are aligned with it you can work with it to achieve and optimise better health, performance, and vitality

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Women are changing all the time and often women are working against their own physiology
All the diets and food combinations are based on research with males and men and women have very different metabolisms, you can’t follow protocols designed for men
If you understand and give the body what it needs, when it needs it you are going with the body
The belief that restricting carbohydrates is the key to becoming lean can lead to the body hanging onto body fat as a response
The results are superior when you begin to fuel your body in the right way because it sends signs of safety to the body
The App integrates with Oura and in the future will integrate with other Apps
A woman in her sixties is really powerful and impressive but it’s a critical time and optimising sleep and getting the right exercise and nutrition require the right protocols
The first thing you need to do if you want to make any changes is to gain insight by collecting data that means you can take the right action
We are working towards there being the capacity for any girl or woman to understand where she is today, know what’s coming up and what her choices are
All little girls from the time they start menstruating should understand what their options are
Women not only have a circadian rhythm but also an infradian rhythm and when you can align with it you can achieve better fitness, health, and creativity

BEST MOMENTS

‘We have variations all the time and we don’t understand our own physiology so are fighting against it’

‘One thing you can be confident about is that as a woman there is continual change’

‘We need to change the story for women and empower them to design their lives around their physiology’

Empowering Beliefs, Behaviour Change & Creating a New Self-image with Colin Hiles Sep 13, 2021

Colin Hiles is an expert in developing high-performance teams and is a specialist in the psychology of change

In this fascinating episode, Angela and Colin discuss what it takes to step into your future self and the importance of your environment on the journey to change

When it comes to setting and achieving goals you have to get the inside right but you also have to get the outside right and when you think you are stuck it could be that you need to understand and change the context of your environment

Ultimately to become the person you want to be and change your behaviours you need to create and be in control of your environment or your environment will create and control you.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Everything starts for anyone with future perfect thinking, setting a goal or intention that you want to be different
For balance across your life set goals for health, wealth, love and lifestyle
You must have a reason ‘why’ and your ‘why’ power needs to be strong enough to drive you forward
We can become stuck in ‘the must be me’ paradigm because our perception is context-specific
Context is the environment you are in when you are making a decision it can be either physical or physical and social
When you associate with people who are part of your future focus you can make changes
The strongest form of commitment is external
When you set a goal you have to go outside of yourself and set a context that looks like the future when you get there
Beliefs are evidence-based and self-signalling that you are becoming the person you want to be builds your belief
When you begin to behave in the way your future self would, you begin to prove to yourself that you are that person
Often something that causes us pain is what moves us to take action
You can use both negative and positive consequences to force you into taking action
Once you become the person and have the identity locked in place everything else follows
Behaviour comes from identity and behaviour changes identity
If your behaviours are the behaviours of the future person you want to be then you will become that person
You have to understand what you need to keep doing and if you do it long enough it will become who you are

BEST MOMENTS

‘Your social bubble is hugely influential and you are with either accomplices or allies’

‘Set the environment up that supports you in making an easier choice’

‘The ultimate aim is not the goal but becoming the person who can achieve that goal’

The Truth About Calories, Weight Loss and Longevity with Dr Herman Pontzer Aug 30, 2021

Angela talks with Dr Herman Pontzer about his work with the Hadza people in Tanzania who are distinct as a population extensively relying on hunting and gathering.

He discusses the truth about calories and how the body adjusts to dealing with energy expenditure during non-exercise based on activity levels in exercise periods.

Weight loss is ultimately a function of nutrition and weight maintenance is achieved through activity and in this in-depth interview is a great opportunity to understand more about why the hunter-gatherer strategy is so successful

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The more active you are the more calories you will burn than if you are sedentary
Your body adjusts to how it deals with the non-exercise part of your energy expenditure depending on how active you are in your exercise
Your energy at rest is the energy that you use for organ function
Exercise has effects throughout your body and you need to think about it the profound impact it has across all areas of the body
We are built for hunting and gathering and that’s what all humans were doing a few generations ago
Exercising is a western world thing we have got so artificially lazy that we have to invent ways to exercise
The entire point of hunting and gathering is you have the advantages of the carnivore and the plant-eater when you combine the advantages of both you have a very successful strategy which is why there are 10 million people on the planet
Sharing the mixed portfolio approach to getting your food is what it’s all about and is what makes us unstoppable
It’s easy to say you haven’t got the time to be outside and exercise
There are those of us who are better off than we think but we have constant pressure in our own minds about working 50 to 60 hour weeks
Once you have lost weight and got where you want to be staying there is easier with exercise but losing weight is a function of your nutrition
Diet is a much better tool for weight loss, you need to create a metabolic deficit to achieve this
Overeating and obesity seem to be a brain regulation issue. It’s about reward and responses to food

BEST MOMENTS

‘If you asked the men and women that I work with, in Tanzania, about exercising for fun they would just laugh at you’

‘Hunting and gathering is a fantastic strategy and that’s why we are so successful’

‘You need to stay in-tune with yourself and family and friends’

Fasting, Fat Loss & Health Optimisation with Matty Lansdown Aug 23, 2021

Angela is with Matty Lansdown, scientist, nutritionist and health coach specialising in weight loss and self-confidence for women. Matty is also the host of the ‘How to NOT Get Sick and Die’ Podcast where he discusses how to develop healthy habits and make a positive impact on your nutrition

In this episode, Matty explains how we have created a lack of predictability in our genes around nutrition and how consistency along with small changes is the best way to build back nutritional predictability and create the successful changes that impact positively on your health. He also shares great content about why fasting, offal and getting the basics right with hydration are the ways forward in creating a healthier version of yourself.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The body is an adaption machine and it’s this that builds our biological resilience
The longer the adaptation phase the more stable your stability of the diet - make one tweak a week
The brain is wired for efficiency looking for shortcuts all the time because it wants to be more efficient with its energy
We have created a lack of predictability in our genes around nutrition
Every time we have started a new thing we have turned our preservation genetics on
Build nutritional predictability into your genome through being consistent over a long period of time and making small changes
Small steps taken over a period of time is what works
We are permanently in a cycle of confirming what we believe about ourselves and everyone has a belief about who they are and rules for their existence
The rules are what create your personality and define your identity
When you change a behaviour you are acting outside of your rules for existence
Changing your identity is the way you will stay accountable to a healthier version of yourself
At any given moment you can get back on track
It’s about doing all the things that redefine the paradigms for yourself
The body has a number of detoxification pathways but they all need to be working efficiently as we are all living in a toxic world
Including offal in your diet has a positive impact on your nutrition
We are eating too much, too often and fasting gives your gut time to repair and recover
Getting the basics right will get you 80% of where you want to go
Increasing your water intake is vital and many people don’t drink enough to keep all their cells hydrated

BEST MOMENTS

‘Build predictability into your biology to gain the trust of your system’

‘It’s curiosity about venturing out to your new higher self’

‘There is not much that compares with animal organs to eat for nutritional value

Second time guest on the podcast Emily Fletcher, best-selling author of ‘Stress Less and Achieve More’ and Founder of Ziva Meditation talks with Angela about Ziva Kids and empowering a whole generation to feel their feelings.

In a world where stress is a potential constant giving kids the tools to feel and process their emotions is about equipping them with a cure for stress that they can use throughout life

This is an episode for anyone who wants to empower their children with the skills to access their own innate intelligence and consciously create a life they love

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Ziva is empowering a whole generation of kids to feel their feelings
Having a third person there can make you feel safer and more prepared to open up about experiences
Many of us are not trained to feel and process our emotions because we don’t feel safe enough
Because as parents we haven’t been given the tools to feel our own feelings when our child is in pain or feels sadness or fear it’s like your feelings magnified
Pain creates pain and in order to fix it we inadvertently repress and diminish the feelings of our children
There are big feelings when we are trying to accomplish big things
Uncertainty is one of the hardest things for humans, especially children, to handle both psychologically and emotionally
There’s a cure for stress and it is meditation
We have a responsibility to equip our children to move through the long-term impact of the pandemic with as much grace and elegance as possible because they have sacrificed a lot for us
Manifesting is the art of consciously creating the life you love
If you stay in a place of gratitude you are programming your brain to look for more of it
If you are in a state of fight or flight then there isn’t any room for your dreams
We always find evidence for what we believe so why not chose to believe you are lucky

BEST MOMENTS

‘Ziva empowers an entire generation to feel their feelings and move through to a new now’

‘You are moving beyond the realm of thinking and into the realm of being’

‘When your body is guiding and healing itself and going on its own circadian rhythms you are tapping into your own innate intelligence, your body’s own human capacity’

Charlie’s focus is on inspiring and helping others on their health journey and this is a great opportunity to hear about how he’s achieving it through the power of collagen in this fascinating episode.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Collagen is the most abundant protein in our bodies. Most collagen in our bodies

Our vision is to improve the health of anyone who wants it
We started making diet and lifestyle changes and it was transformational for our health
You are the driver of your own health, and you can make positive changes

Harness Your Hormones and Unlock Your Inner Goddess with Alisa Vitti Aug 02, 2021

Alisa Vitta, pioneer of female biohacking, women’s hormone and functional nutrition expert and author of the best sellers ‘Woman Code and ‘In the Flo’ talks to Angela about how to harness your hormones and feel great every day.

The links between nutrition and hormones are well established and when women understand their infradian system they can make changes throughout their cycle to make sure they can work at their optimum throughout their cycle.

This is a great opportunity to understand more about your infradian rhythm and how you can learn to lean into what you are naturally inclined to do at a particular time in your cycle bringing peak performance and feeling great every day into your life.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Hormonal ratios have to be in optimal balance and when they are you have no symptoms no cramps, no PMS and no heavy bleeding just a healthy vibrant cycle and the benefits that come with that.
The infradian rhythm influences six different systems in the body – your brain, metabolism, the immune system, your microbiome, your stress response system and reproductive system
The reason the infradian rhythm has been left out of the conversation is because women have been actively left out of medical fitness and nutrition research
You are disrupting your infradian rhythm constantly because you didn’t know it existed and you weren’t told how to take care of it
The cycle thinking methodology builds on foundational pillars and finally, you can start to feel like you are supposed to
Your metabolism changes during your cycle, in the first half it’s slightly lower so you can and should eat slightly lower calories
In the second half of your cycle your metabolism speeds up and you will need to eat more calories each day, if you don’t then you start to store more fuel as fat.
You need to alter your calorific intake according to where you are in your cycle
Your resting cortisol levels are lower in the first part of the cycle making it a good time to do higher intensity training. As you move into the second part of the cycle resting cortisol levels are higher and you should do strength training
Postpartum you should be eating to replenish yourself and rebuild the micronutrients in your body
Perimenopause starts at 35 and is the unwinding of the infradian clock
Every ovulation is an opportunity for your body to protect your brain, heart and bones both today and beyond the reproductive years
Your routines need to change 4 times a month to keep in a peak performance state and you need to be aware of where you are so you can work at your optimum throughout your cycle.

BEST MOMENTS

‘Women from their first period to their last are governed by their infradian rhythm’

‘Your infradian rhythm touches every aspect of your life and if you lean into what you are naturally inclined to do at that particular time’

‘80% of women will have a hormonal problem at some point in their lives’

Transform Your Body and Mindset for the Long Term with Brian Keane Jul 26, 2021

Brian Keane is a multiple best-selling author and is one of the most well-known faces of the Irish health and fitness industry

In this in-depth episode, he talks with Angela about how you can get both fit and lean and stay healthy and explains why it involves really understanding nutrition and the role training can play.

With an incredibly strong mindset, Brian has achieved many global fitness challenges and shares great content on how to build confidence by consistently keeping your promises to yourself, listen in and hear more

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Challenges and events made me stronger mentally every time and growth comes from challenging yourself
You keep the end in mind and then break the journey down into smaller goals
Most things are the most difficult at the beginning. You need to focus on what you can do today that will help you tomorrow
Recovery is easy to neglect because it’s easier to keep pushing
I’m very productive in the time I allocate for business and everything is systemised, the entire business can run effectively without me
Get clear on the things you should be saying yes to and better at saying no
Looking good, staying healthy and weight loss don’t necessarily go hand in hand
Fat loss is as simple as understanding that if you are in a calorific deficit, consuming fewer calories than you need, you are going to tap into stored fat and burn it as fuel.
When you resistance train you boost your metabolic rate and burn more calories
Resistance training is one of the most under-utilised ways to lose body fat
Calories are really important to understand but there are a number of other factors that impact on weight loss
If you are working to a calorie deficit and not losing weight look to see what maybe the underlying issue
You build confidence by consistently keeping promises to yourself but often the mistake made is to make the promise too big
It’s the small consistent things we do over time that build confidence
Learn to look at failure as feedback and make the changes needed to succeed
There is a time for tough love and a time to be compassionate with yourself

BEST MOMENTS

‘There is a magic to be about early in the morning’

‘Get better at saying no to things and your life will become considerably easier from that point on’

‘I was lean and muscular but I definitely wasn’t healthy’

Balancing Hormones, Effortless Weight Loss & Boosting Energy with Dr Libby Weaver Jul 19, 2021

Dr Libby Weaver Nutritional, biochemist and multiple best-selling author talks with Angela about the three pillars of biochemical, nutritional and emotional which underpin her work and why our beliefs and perception drive our behaviours.

When we make choices about foods that don’t serve us it’s never about the food it’s the way we distance ourselves from the way we perceive things are when they are not how we want them to be and this fascinating episode explores how the combination of science, belief systems and nutrition is key in achieving effortless weight loss.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

There are consequences to shifts in our bio-chemistry
There is no one way for everyone to eat because everyone is different. What everyone should do is eat a diet that is based on real wholefoods
The focus needs to be on creating good energy and nourishment
Detoxification is a process that is always going on inside of us but can be impacted by lifestyle choices
Detoxification is a change process; the liver takes toxic substances and changes them so that they become harmless
Eating a wide range of whole real foods supports the liver with detoxification
Constantly elevated stress levels start to change the fuel the body perceives as being safe to use
When the body is under stress it looks for a fast-burning fuel and it looks to glucose.
The pattern of adrenalin production today has resulted in inflammatory compounds in the body
High levels of adrenalin create inflammation and cortisol has to increase to deal with this
Your body responds to the information you give it
Our actions are driven by our beliefs and how we perceive ourselves
We construct ourselves and live as if we need approval and in unpacking the beliefs you have created you need to be flexible about how others perceive you
You have to do the inner work if you want to make changes to your beliefs
It’s never about the food its always about the emotions
Humans will do more to avoid pain than gain pleasure
Ask yourself if what you are thinking is really true?

BEST MOMENTS

‘Every single second there are billions of biochemical reactions going on inside of us that create how we feel, function and look’

‘We are completely governed by how we feel’

‘Life can be incredibly challenging and simultaneously mind-blowingly magnificent’

Hormone Repair: Navigating Peri-menopause & Building Metabolic Reserve with Dr Lara Briden Jul 12, 2021

Dr Lara Briden, best-selling author of the ‘Hormone Repair Manual’ and the ‘Period Repair Manual’ talks to Angela about the changes that take place during peri-menopause and shares great information on not only impact but also what women should do to support their bodies through this critical time.

She explains why sleep is so important and some of the ways you can improve insulin sensitivity and build your metabolic reserve in this informative episode and how to positively navigate this crucial stage in life.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Progesterone is a calming hormone and interacts with the data receptor in the brain
Every one shifts to more insulin resistance when they are peri-menopause
Sleep improves your physiology, insulin sensitivity and sets you up for the day
The worst symptoms, if you do suffer with symptoms are in the 10 years prior to the final period and the first year afterwards
It’s temporary it’s not how you are always going to be when the brain has completed its recalibration things will be better
When there is insulin resistance it’s difficult to have metabolic flexibility and burn ketones as an alternative to glucose
The goal is to feel well and its achieving a balance between the benefits of fasting and low carb versus stress hormones
Magnesium and Taurine support the mitochondria and both directly calm the nervous system supporting good sleep
If you are metabolically healthy and you have had enough protein then fasting should not be difficult
The protein leverage hypothesis is the idea that we will keep eating until we have had enough protein and when you reach this point you will stop eating
If you don’t have the stomach for protein you are not ready to eat
Peri menopausal allergies are related to the connection between high oestrogen and cells that release histamine

BEST MOMENTS

‘How you behave in the peri-menopausal years is so important’

‘The priority in your mid to late forties has to be sleep’

‘It’s a time of such change that it is a critical window for your health’

They discuss the potential impact and effects of influencing hormones during post pubertal construction along how being on the pill can influence women in their partner choices.

For women pregnancy requires almost every single major system in the body to change in some way
There are hormone receptors all over the brain and body and our bodies are incredibly sensitive to our sex hormones
When oestrogen increases it increases women’s desire and a preference for men with particular masculine facial cues
With diverse MHC genes your body recognises a greater number of antigens and can respond to them
Women should be aware that being on the pill can influence their partner choices
Hormones have both activational affects when they influence something immediate and
organisational effects where the hormones are influencing developmental processes that are creating structures in the body
Hormones direct the way the brain is constructed during post pubertal construction and any hormonal change will affect this
The research has shown that women on hormonal birth control have a blunted cortisol response to stress
Cortisol helps the body cope with the stressful situation and to process memories to cope better in the future

BEST MOMENTS

‘Research is now confirming what women have long suspected that taking the pill most affects your brain’

‘The brain is incredibly plastic and will find ways around things that aren’t organised in the way it needs’

‘Stress and cortisol release means that something important is happening’

The Power of Fasting To Burn Fat, Heal Inflammation and Age in Reverse with Dave Asprey Jun 14, 2021

Dave Asprey founder and chair of Bulletproof and 3 times New York best-selling author talks with Angela about the benefits of bulletproof coffee and the science behind the

bio-hacks that make a difference.

He shares an insight and great tips about routines he uses to achieve optimum health and performance and how he has honed and developed them to achieve maximum metabolic flexibility.

There is something for everyone in this episode from the inspiration to get started through to great content on how to develop and upgrade yourself to achieve the changes you want.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Metabolic flexibility is the ability to turn any available nutrient into energy efficiently and quickly
When you are metabolically flexible you can take all of the air and all of the food and combine it to make electricity
During a fast, you are in repair mode and bulletproof coffee is a hack that doesn’t affect insulin levels
MCT oil raises ketones more than coconut oil
Women don’t do usually do as well fasting as men who will typically do 2-4 hours longer.
Bulletproof coffee changes the voice in your head about food
If you are exercising make it intense and make it short. If you move for twenty minutes a day it does good things for energy production
You need to space out exercise because recovery is when growth happens
Our peak energy and movement time is in the afternoon
When you combine light exposure and food exposure you can shift your sleeping window to whenever you want.
It’s important to know which exercise works best so you can focus your time efficiently
The most important variable in sleep is light exposure
Plants produce toxins as part of their survival mechanisms and humans can tolerate the toxins but too much does have an effect on the body
If we eat plants with lower toxin levels our biology works better.

BEST MOMENTS

‘You can look at a plate of doughnuts and you just don’t want them there is no inner dialogue, no willpower needed and fasting becomes easy’

‘I want this to be painless for people and with bulletproof coffee you are simply not hungry’

‘I don’t want to be hungry; I want my brain to work all the time and my body to look the way I want’

Taking Ownership and Bio-Hacking Yourself for Longevity with Debbie Potts Jun 07, 2021

Debbie Potts health and fitness coach, nutritional therapist and author of ‘Life is Not a Race’ and ‘The Wholestic Method Manual’ joins Angela to talk about her own journey from high performing athlete, in the best shape of her life, to an individual with chronic stress and how taking ownership, slowing things down and learning to both manage stress and understand the stressors have all played a part in moving forward.

They discuss the power of tracking and reviewing data so you know exactly what is impacting you and how to make the changes that improve both health and longevity

KEY TAKEAWAYS

It doesn’t matter what you do everyone has different stressors and these accumulate over time.
Both internal and external stressors accumulate until it becomes chronic stress
With the goldilocks affect too much of anything, whatever it is doesn’t help and too little of anything is also a negative
Metabolic dysfunction affects every area of your life and if you have metabolic disfunction you can’t achieve your true potential in life
A disrupted metabolic function can cause weight gain, fatigue and a feeling of loss of identity
Knowing what your HRV makes a huge difference in understanding what makes the difference
It’s empowering when you understand the data
Many of the chronic conditions seen currently are connected to mitochondrial health
Learning how to manage your own stress and recognise the red flags and stressors for you is key
If you don’t track and review the data you don’t know what the impact is and the recovery that needed for your body
It’s a genetic thing that some people are more susceptible to stress than others
Understanding the data gives you something tangible to work with

BEST MOMENTS

‘I went from being in the best shape of my life to gaining 30 pounds and having an afternoon nap instead of a workout’

‘I was probably doing everything a little too much’

‘I’m biohacking myself to improve longevity’

You can learn how to do anything and if you put your mind to it and apply effort anything is possible
Sometimes we have big ideas and then blow them up to a point where they seem impossible
Imposter syndrome can be really difficult to overcome
Any change needs to come from within yourself
Without intention, you are stuck in life
Our thoughts and how we feel determine the decisions we make, the decisions we make determine the actions we take and the actions we take determine the outcomes in our lives
It was about committing and going all-in with my idea, dancing around the edge of it hadn’t worked.
Everything became easier when I went all in and everything changed
There is always resistance but there is also the point at which you realise you want your life to be purposeful
Confidence and clarity come from taking action and telling others gives you accountability
The challenges are there to help you grow as a person
The purpose of life is to grow and flourish as a person
It’s about identifying what makes you feel accomplished and will get you a result.
Motivation comes from taking action

Balancing the Alkalinity Factor with Dr Anna Cabeca, ‘The Girlfriend Doctor’ May 24, 2021

Dr Anna Cabeca author of ‘The Hormone Fix’ is someone who knows exactly how you can optimise your hormones to look and feel fantastic and in this episode, she shares great content on exactly how to bring your body into balance.

She explains the crucial role oxytocin plays with low levels often resulting in feelings of disconnect and how you can increase your levels through practising the art of gratitude and understanding the importance of being present.

The body has the ability to heal itself using natural products and Dr Anna Cabeca discusses how healing foods and healing practices from around the world combined with understanding how your body works can make all the difference

KEY TAKEAWAYS

When cortisol is up oxytocin is down and low oxytocin can result in you feeling disconnected
When you incorporate more fun and joy into your life you can raise your oxytocin
Raising oxytocin is one of the quickest ways to bring cortisol into balance
When you are in a physiological state of disconnect it can be very difficult to understand what makes you happy
You have to leave the past behind, practice the art of gratitude and be in the present to increase levels of oxytocin.
Urine is a biomarker and checking it every day can help you to get in tune with your body
The more alkaline your urine pH the more decreased diabetes, heart disease, cancer and other inflammatory diseases
De -hydration causes more acidity and hydration supports an alkaline state if the water is filtered
Fluid restriction during food intake is vital to allow the digestive enzymes to be able to work efficiently.
If you are creating a physiology that is alkalinising then fasting can be very successful
If you have a good night’s sleep you should wake up alkaline
Maca is an indigenous root to Peru and has many positives including helping the adrenals when they are in over or underdrive and supporting detoxification
The body has the ability to heal its self-using natural products, understanding your circadian rhythm and balancing hormones naturally

BEST MOMENTS

‘Getting keto green is a diet and a lifestyle’

‘Whatever your diet you can’t assume you are alkaline and you can’t assume you are in ketosis you have to check’

‘We see an improvement in our hormones when we go keto green and when you balance the alkalinity factor its game changing’

Beyond Mars and Venus with John Gray May 17, 2021

John Gray author of one of the most influential relationship books of all time ‘Men are from Mars; Women are from Venus’ is talking to Angela about how we are all now living in a different reality which has changed our hormonal foundation and means we now need a revised approach to develop the relationship skills required in such a complex world.

They discuss how you can work towards a balance between your masculine and feminine and achieve an open heart being authentic in your relationship if you learn to understand and feel your deeper emotions.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

When women are stressed their oestrogen levels are low when men are stressed their testosterone levels are low
Connection is one of the key elements in oestrogen going up
We are not designed to be together all the time. detachment for men can increase testosterone
We long for connection but if we get too much it has the opposite effect
You need the right balance of connection and separation
if you are solving problems with confidence your testosterone is rising
Previously men were taught to meditate and this was an effective way of rebuilding testosterone
Part of men’s bonding happens when women’s oestrogen is very high
You need higher levels of testosterone to sustain interest in someone you love than someone you don’t love
Women have the feminine power of attraction to draw in opportunity and it’s then the masculine that makes use of it
There is more to the world than what we can see and hear. Find in your heart peacefully what it is you really want in your life
If you are both analysing and feeling you can experience feeling the deeper emotions
When you learn how to process your emotions you can grow and manifest your potential
I recommend a positive mindset, good nutrition and sometimes supplements if you are going through a crisis
The ultimate accountability is when you have the source of happiness within yourself

BEST MOMENTS

‘You need love and when you feel this your oestrogen levels go up’

‘The world is a projection to help you get in touch with how you feel’

‘What holds a man’s attention is vulnerability, emotion and authenticity

Building Successful Lifestyle Fixes for Menopause May 10, 2021

Dr Mindy Pelz, a women’s fasting expert specialising in fasting for women over forty talks to Angela about her own journey and the five key principles that she has created to support a successful fasting lifestyle.

She explains how she made the lifestyle shifts that have taken her from a chaotic time in her forties to the smooth and easy experience of her early fifties.

This episode has informative lifestyle fixes for menopause and great content that can be acted on immediately to change your life positively starting now.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

You have to stop eating all day – we operate with two energy systems, one where we burn energy from what we eat and one where we burn energy from fat.
You cannot get to the energy system burning fat without fasting
You need to be sensitive to the fact you become more insulin resistant in your forties and beyond
5:1:1 variation works with 5 days of intermittent fasting, 1 day of extended fasting and 1 day of eating
Vary your foods through keto variations
There are specific bacteria in the gut that break down oestrogen
You have to become insulin sensitive to make oestrogen but you also need a healthy liver and the right bacteria in the gut to break oestrogen down so that it can enter the body
Detoxing makes the biggest difference to your hormones.
You need to stop toxifying yourself, review what you put on your skin, what’s in your environment and what you are putting into your body
You can stimulate autophagy so the cells are detoxing themselves
Infertility, challenging menopause and compromised immune systems are all toxic issues
A toxic-free environment must be a priority
Exercise variation is the key to successful training over forty.
The goal is to build a fasting lifestyle that can successfully make a difference and be maintained.

BEST MOMENTS

‘When you are operating from a ketogenic system all these healing switches get turned on’

‘Going back to local can help you to know about where your food has come from’

‘There is benefit in having high protein and low protein days’

Sex Differences in Training, Nutrition and Environmental Conditions, Working Positively with Female Physiology with Dr Stacy Sims May 03, 2021

Dr Stacy Sims, applied researcher, innovator and entrepreneur in human performance talks with Angela about intermittent fasting, exercise, the keto diet and achieving body composition.

As a globally recognised expert on sex differences in training, nutrition and environmental conditions she shares great advice and insight into the factors that affect women in nutrition and exercise when they are working towards achieving good health and what makes a difference.

This is a great opportunity to understand more about how to work with your physiology for performance, health and well-being with great content for any woman who wants to know more.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

If you are layering exercising and intermittent fasting its above and beyond the stress that a woman’s body should experience.
If women lower their calorie intake and have a long period of not eating the resting metabolic rate lowers and they experience tiredness and this in time can result in disrupted cycles.
You need to consider your diet and nutrition together along with how it affects your daily life.
Cortisol naturally rises during peri-menopause, one of the responses from having lowered oestrogen and progesterone is more cortisol.
If you are eating an evening meal and then nothing until breakfast the next day you are getting a twelve-hour daily fast.
To combat a low energy reserve you need to make sure you are getting good quality sleep.
Protein is the building block for many things and having good quality protein in your diet and adaptogens will support good recovery and sustaining good health
You need blood flow monitoring with whatever device you are using to gain a more accurate picture of what’s going on
Adaptogens can support your symptoms with less intensity and can be tried prior to any hormone replacement.
The pill disrupts your endocrine system because it down-regulates your natural oestrogen and progesterone
The oral contraceptive pill affects many other systems in the body such as HRV, the pattern of your response is different, it also decreases strength capacity
With exercise, you should be either be working low and slow for recovery or doing high intensity with low repetition you need remove the grey ‘mid area of exercise’ that stresses the body with no results.
When exercising if you work in the 4-6 rep range you will get both hypertrophy and strength.

BEST MOMENTS

‘The whole hormonal experience is a long way from what men experience’

‘It’s not about time in the gym it’s about how high the stimulus is’

‘There is a silent pressure and burden for women with all the elements that they are dealing with on a day to day basis’

Breathing Habits for a Healthier Life with Patrick McKeown Apr 26, 2021

Angela is talking again with Patrick McKeown, world-renowned Buteyko expert and author of multiple best-selling books about breathing and the influence it has on other functions of the body.

In this fascinating episode, they discuss how breathing can control your blood pH and circulation along with the importance of enhancing your vagus nerve activity to bring balance between the parasympathetic and sympathetic systems and how breathing is key in achieving this.

They also discuss how breathing activities are successfully used to bring asthma under control and the positive benefits for individuals who have been taught specific breathing techniques in the management of their asthma.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

There are a variety of influences on breathing including genetics, hormones, lifestyle, and environment.
The primary regulator of blood pH is breathing
People with cold hands and feet often have poor breathing patterns, blood vessels are constricting because of the lower carbon dioxide
Women breathe differently from men and this because of hormones
It’s important to gain some control over your breathing because you can exert control to change things
Women should track their breathing using the Bolt Score. The lower the bolt score the closer women are to exhibiting symptoms
If you can improve the biochemistry of breathing you can improve circulation and calm the central nervous system
It’s important to change and improve our breathing patterns during rest because it’s these breathing patterns that influence breathing when we sleep
Nasal breathing is so much more efficient than mouth breathing which is about a fight or flight mode.
When you bring the body into relaxation you can do this through a slow prolonged exhalation
Our physiology can influence whether we are in a state of relaxation or not
How you breathe during the day impacts on how you sleep.
For 15 minutes prior to sleeping slow down your breathing to stimulate the vagus nerve

BEST MOMENTS

‘Breathwork training should be done alongside medical treatments’

‘The pressure of carbon dioxide in the blood is determined by the carbon dioxide in the lungs and this is decided by your breathing’

‘Humming and cold water stimulate the vagus nerve’

Paradigms, Energy and Brain Powered Weight Loss with Eliza Kingsford Apr 19, 2021

Eliza Kingsford is a mind/body practitioner, licenced psychotherapist and leading expert in weight management and body image.

She talks with Angela about weight loss and how we all stay stuck in our own story and pattern, repeating it over and over unless we are able to move out and change the paradigm.

When you are able to change your paradigms and work effectively with the energy you have

you are better equipped to deal with everything. You can objectively look at any situation and ask the questions that will move you forward and Eliza shares great content about how anyone can change a paradigm when they learn how to connect with the alignment of themselves.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The first step is to examine your values and what you believe.
Looking at what you have and don’t have will tell you what your beliefs are. Our results are a reflection of our paradigm.
You can give people all of the tools they require but if the unconscious paradigm hasn’t been addressed you will always go back to what your beliefs are.
At our core, we are all just energy beings and you attract the energy you put out.
Your emotions are the indicator for your energy field and whether you are out of alignment
Until you have a clear understanding of where you are going the brain pulls information from the past.
You need to stop doing everything and turn inward to concentrate on your vibration and blueprint, where you are going.
Focus on repetitive action and actively engage with rituals and tools that will shift you from your current pathway until the person you are becoming is your new normal
The more you surrender to the process without rules and obligations the easier it is for the energy.
Surrender is not about giving up it’s the opposite it’s what keeps us out of our way and stops the messages such as ‘I can’t’
Words are just a representation of your physical emotions the vibration, the emotionality, is what changes our outside world
It’s not what we say that matters it’s how we feel, the vibration that changes

BEST MOMENTS

‘Whatever your story, it’s what you will achieve in life’

‘The more you surrender and slow down the quicker the change will come’

‘Everyone needs to connect with the alignment of themselves’

DNA-Optimised Nutrition with Rachel Clarkson, ‘The DNA Dietitian’ Apr 12, 2021

Rachel Clarkson ‘The DNA Dietitian’ talks with Angela about the wealth of information you can find out from your DNA that can empower you in customising your nutrition for optimal health and longevity.

As a dietitian specialising in nutrigenomics, she shares a fascinating insight into this area of science and the positive changes that individuals can make when they understand their own genetic makeup.

Nutrigenomics is about optimising the expression of your genetics and the opportunity to take the guesswork out of your diet, a powerful element in the jigsaw of health and longevity.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

DNA is the genetic code that tells the body what to do and what it should be.
Nutrigenomics looks at specific variations in DNA that alter how you process the nutrients taken in through food and supplements
Knowing your genetic makeup can be empowering in changing your lifestyle
Different nutrients have different variations of ‘snips’ that alter one response
People with the AA genotype variation of the FTO are more likely to respond well to a high protein diet
The area of nutrigenomics doesn’t predict obesity or the likelihood of being overweight
the variation of the ACTA gene that someone processes can be thought of like colours, you can either have the pink, blue or green variation.
Depending on the variation you hold you process nutrients differently
Having the AA variation means are more likely to feel satisfied and not overeat.
When you understand your genetics, you can begin to bio-hack your body to achieve optimum health
If you are living a life not based around health then you will probably have some bad genes being expressed
Having information about yourself is motivating and being able to track progress also motivates.
People are more motivated to make change when they are given dietary recommendations through a regulated health care professional about their genetics
An individual’s requirements will differ according to what they do day to day.
You can target specifically taking the guesswork out of your diet.

BEST MOMENTS

‘It’s powerful that individuals are more likely to make change when advice is specific to them’

‘It’s important that advice is understood as part of the jigsaw’

‘There needs to be more education to help people acknowledge the benefits’

When Chase was medically discharged from the military he faced having to start life all over again and in this inspirational episode, he talks to Angela about his journey and his ultimate goal in life.

You have to choose to find a way in life and Chase discusses how he learned to look at things differently, taking complete ownership and meaning over his life making a conscious choice to think differently and take different actions seeking the problems and focusing on finding the right solutions to move forward in the right way.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

At the time I was on active service it was during the global war on terrorism so it was a high-stress environment.
When I was medically discharged and had to start life all over again. I knew I was going to have to look at things differently.
It was strength training in a gym environment that provided the opportunity to work specific muscle groups
The human body is extremely resilient, it can suffer and endure a lot and it can overcome a lot if you can focus on how to rehabilitate it in the right way.
No matter what got you there you have to look at things a bit differently to move forward
My ultimate goal is to continuously learn and to help as many people as possible.
Sharing your message and reaching a bigger audience is what makes a difference.
You have to build a community, a support system of those people who want you to succeed.
You have to choose to find a way in life. You have to decide to go problem hunting
You have to take complete ownership and meaning over your life
You have to make a conscious choice to think differently and take different actions.
Where the mind goes the body will follow.
I got very clear on who I was and how I wanted to show up in the world.
I constantly check in with myself about how I’m feeling and what I need.

BEST MOMENTS

‘Walking regularly is hugely under-rated, it has benefits for both mental and physical health’

‘When you are in active service during a time of war every day could be the day of something happening on a grandiose scale’

Healing Hashimoto’s and SIBO Made Easy with Wellness Blogger & Hashimoto’s Advocate Phoebe Lapine Mar 29, 2021

Phoebe Lapine is a gluten-free chef and author whose latest book is ‘SIBO Made Simple’

provides great content and information about SIBO, the root causes and how it can be treated along with healing recipes and practical strategies to rebalance the gut.

She also shares concise information about how the gut’s protective mechanisms work and the issues that can lead to SIBO.

With gut health being incredibly important for many functions in the body achieving the right balance is key and Phoebe, as a SIBO sufferer, knows exactly what it’s like and provides great practical advice on how to heal.

This is an episode that will tell you everything you need to know about SIBO from what it is and isn’t to how to treat it effectively.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

If there is a breach of the small intestinal wall by bacteria they are then in direct contact with your immune system.
Damage to the intestinal wall can lead to a leaky gut issue which can create a feedback loop with autoimmunity and this can cause systematic inflammation.
The gases bacteria release are inflammatory and damaging
SIBO is complex and usually a result of more than one of the body’s protective mechanisms having issues.
Any deficiency in the natural microbial substances that we make or deficiency in the immune system can result in SIBO.
The migrating motor complex carries food through the intestine and damage to this can be a cause of SIBO.
A gut not functioning well will mean issues in the conversion of T4 to T3.
T3 is essential for many functions in the body including the production of stomach acid
and fuelling the migrating motor complex.
if you have a hormone imbalance such as oestrogen dominance the conversion will be even more challenging for T4 to T3.
Bacteria carry their own histamine load and it’s all about keeping everything in balance.
50% of people with SIBO will also have some sort of fungal overgrowth as the lack of balance will cause overgrowth not only in the gut but also in other areas of the body
There are 3 main treatments for SIBO antibiotics, herbal antimicrobials and an elemental diet.

BEST MOMENTS

‘The reason some people have chronic SIBO is that they have not treated the root cause’

‘In the body, there is always a check and balance’

‘Gut health is incredibly important for all functions in the body’

Dr James Nicolantonio, internationally respected scientist and expert on health and nutrition talks with Angela about immunity, why and when intermittent fasting works and the importance of natural nutrition and balance.

He explains the differences between the adaptive and innate immune system and how you can strengthen your own immune system through natural health and nutrition.

He shares great content on what you should be removing from your diet and how refined sugars and carbohydrates impact the body along with the negative role of seed oils and the positive role of organ meats as part of your diet.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The immune system is traditionally referred to as innate and adaptive elements
The innate is an immediate response using white blood cells, macrophages and natural killer cells that attack the virus in a pro-inflammatory way.
Your T cells and B cells adapt to destroy a virus in a focused way and are part of your adaptive system.
The better adaptive immune response in memory to viruses the better you can deal with similar viruses when you meet them in the future
Children have a better T and B cell response along with a higher innate response.
Salt is used by our bodies to fight viruses but sugar dampens the body’s immune response.
People with metabolic syndrome are 3.5x more likely to have poor outcomes from Covid
You can fix the markers for poor metabolic health very quickly by removing refined sugar and refined carbohydrate intake
People who are at a high weight with more fat will benefit from fasting more.
Studies show that moderate exercise 3 to 5 days a week reduces the risk of upper respiratory infections
An excess intake of sugar will lead to insulin resistance increasing VLDL which will increase triglycerides in the blood.
Good amounts of omega 3 in your tissues means when there is inflammation your body can convert the omega 3 into resolvins and protectins.
Remove refined carbs and sugar along with including organ meats as part of your diet to achieve better health.

BEST MOMENTS

‘It’s important to keep your omega3 and omega 6 balanced’

Genetic Momentum and a Healthy Diet with Dr Cate Shanahan Mar 09, 2021

Dr Cate Shanahan is the best-selling author of ‘The Fatburn Fix’ and ‘Deep Nutrition’ and a leading authority on nutrition and metabolism.

Her passion is helping people to feel their best through a healthy diet and she shares great content on the changes to our diet and why it’s worth looking at traditional diets to understand more about how and what a healthy human diet looks like.

In a world where often the information we access is not complete, this is a great opportunity to understand more about creating a starting point for a healthy human diet.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Previously the shared foundations for a healthy diet were eating fresh food in season, working with processes in nature and using all parts of an animal.
Every organ has a different nutritional value
Seed oils are an industrial product and most people now have no or very little animal fats in their diet.
Globally people have moved from not just eating an inadequate diet to eating toxic fat calories.
Fats become the outer membranes of your cells and your mitochondria
If your parents and grandparents ate well then you can have genetic momentum
We have been discouraged from thinking about traditional diets because of the fats.
If you want a healthy gut biome get rid of seed oils in your diet and you will immediately start to notice the difference.
Not everyone’s metabolism is functioning properly.
The most common hunger experienced by people with weight issues is hypoglycaemic
because your body needs calories, this is dangerous hunger and needs to be resolved.
People come into the world with different genetic momentum.

BEST MOMENTS

‘There is so much missing from the information we are learning’

‘There is no disease that isn’t made worse by seed oils’

‘You can raise your kids to eat a healthy diet, we have so much power to change our children’s lives’

Should you Drink Lemon Water? How Dangerous are Mercury Fillings? And What Can Your Teeth Tell You About the Health of Your Body with Dr Kelly Blodgett Feb 02, 2021

Angela talks with world-renowned expert on biological and holistic dentistry, Dr Kelly Blodgett about why you cannot divorce your teeth from the rest of your body and how oral health impacts on the whole body.

They discuss the impact of processed convenience foods and what really happens to mercury fillings in the mouth along with what causes colouration in teeth.

With all teeth originating from the same tissue that forms the central nervous system issues with oral health have far-reaching consequences for the rest of the body so getting the right balance with good dental health is vital to all of your body.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Biological and holistic dentistry is about systems versus symptoms
People often observe major shifts in their health after dental procedures
The culture of a family can affect dental health and it’s not just how you are eating but how often you are eating.
There is no known safe level of mercury and mercury fillings produce mercury vapour.
Lemon water is a strong acid and can’t be in your mouth for any amount of time without causing issues with your teeth.
Compress drinking into a small amount of time to aid oral health
Modern convenience foods are all pre-macerated
Our access to processed foods is phenomenal with foods already in a bottle or a bag, pre-chewed and full of acid, sugar and preservative.
Teeth colouration is influenced by surface-based staining and the colour of the dentin underneath.
Darker colouration in teeth dentin is usually down to diet and biochemistry in your early years growing up.
All teeth are formed from the same tissue as the central nervous system.
When you remove a tooth there is a change to the energetic flow through the energy meridians of the body.
Red light therapy is an effective way to support recovery after dental surgery so that no narcotics or anti-inflammatory prescriptions are required.
On a daily basis, you should find time to be reflective – when you are able to be in a parasympathetic state your teeth are able to detox themselves.
Getting a balance in energy is critical to your dental health.

BEST MOMENTS

‘People are chronically exposing themselves to garbage and thinking it’s normal’

‘Find a dentist who is willing to listen to you, to understand what your truth is’

‘Your tooth is a living body part’

How to use the Law of Attraction, Affirmations and the Right Framework to Transform Your Health, Wealth and Relationships with Adam Scheuble Jan 19, 2021

In this fascinating episode, Angela talks with Adam Schaeuble who turned his life around with a complete transformation across health, business and relationships and now coaches others on the importance of setting a framework for the day and how to set and achieve goals that will change your life.

He explains exactly how he structures each day and the role positive affirmations play in creating the right mindset -one that every day looks for opportunities to progress and celebrates the progress that is being made towards set goals.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Every day I asked myself what I was doing to move towards my goals.
Having a mindset that enables you to have an assessment routine and celebrate your progress is key.
I set goals and implement them every single day.
The key component is the action, setting in motion what you’ve put out there to attract.
The perspective from which we measure our progress is key.
An affirmation should be positive, in the present tense and make you feel excited.
With affirmations, you need to have an emotional connection.
An affirmation at the beginning of the day should mean you are focused throughout the day on finding opportunities to make progress.
Revisiting the affirmation at the end of the day is about being accountable.
Every day won’t be perfect but you can do something every day that consistently moves you towards your goals.
You can move forward by doing just one thing.
Journaling can help you to really reflect and be accountable.
Movement, meditation and learning time should be a part of each day.

BEST MOMENTS

‘I asked myself, how can I regain control of my life?’

‘You are placing the order for the life of your dreams’

‘If an affirmation doesn’t connect or make you feel positive it should be replaced’

‘My life is exciting and it’s a life I’ve constructed for myself’

Neil shares great content on the properties of individual mushroom varieties and how they can support and boost functions in the body.

Neil also explains the role of pine pollen to modulate and bring balance along with how mushroom blends can be used regularly to maintain health and modulate the body.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Mushrooms were the gateway for me in understanding how to positively interact with the ecosystem and be a part of it rather than just showing up and taking from a place
Mushrooms work really well with other homoeopathic medicines.
Mushrooms have a synergetic effect when taken together.
Chaga mushrooms are great anti-inflammatory and full of anti-oxidants.
Mushrooms don’t have subtle flavours so beginning slowly and building can be the best way to start taking them.
Reishi mushrooms have a long history in Chinese medicine and is known for its properties supporting longevity. You can take Reishi extract at night time to aid good sleep
Lion’s Mane mushrooms have been proven to improve REM sleep and there is positive research on the benefits of taking Lion’s Mane extract.
It’s important to track yourself and how you are feeling when taking any mushroom extracts.
Pine pollen can modulate testosterone in both men and women, it is rich in naturally occurring DHA. It can modulate according to what the body needs restoring balance.
In the same way, mushrooms can help us they also help the environments they grow in. If you open yourself to the ecosystem then you can access your own ecosystem more fully.

Why Biohacking For Women Is So Important - with The Biohacker Babes Dec 08, 2020

Angela is in conversation with sisters Renee and Lauren hosts of the Biohacker Babes podcast and in this wide-ranging and informative discussion they share their personal biohacking experiences and highlight what’s worked for them.

Biohacking is about knowing yourself and putting together the pieces to make positive changes and this is a great opportunity to hear from three experienced biohackers about how and what they are currently biohacking.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Biohacking is about nobody knowing your body as well as you do and women are much more complex than men.
There are little things along your journey that no practitioner is going to be able to figure out.
You have to know your body inside out and know how to tie the pieces together.
A coach can help you to speed the process up but they need to listen to what you are telling them.
When you start tracking and looking at the data, that’s when you start to see what happens when you do something.
Biohacking is about personalisation because we are all unique, what works for you will be different from what works for someone else.
If you are fasting as a woman you have to consider the stress it puts on the body and whether this is the right time for you.
Lack of sleep can be what causes the biggest impact in your life, lighting and working at night can affect your sleep.
Driven women push hard and this can put you in a situation where your cortisol levels become very low and don’t get the chance to replenish.
Slowing down can be the way to put your body back in balance.

BEST MOMENTS

‘I love that we have to question and find our own answers’

‘Once you let go and work inwards in a positive way you will be able to achieve the fitness and health you want’

‘You have to manage stress and there are many different elements to be considered’

GUEST BIO

Biohacking Back from Crohn’s Disease Dec 01, 2020

In this episode Ingrid De La O who is the co-founder of Tusol Wellness talks to Angela about her own journey, bio hacking her way back from Crohn’s Disease, to being in a place where she can choose what she wants to eat.

After arriving at a point where she got tired of waiting for someone else to fix her, she began to look at a holistic approach treating the individual as a whole, to enhance the quality of life.

Her journey led to the founding of Tusol Wellness, who produce organic smoothies which are produced without mechanical extraction to make sure that the products are ultra-clean and do not contain any heavy metals. She shares great advice and information about the ways you can boost your pharmaceutical deficiency and improve your foundations of health to support your body’s resilience.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

We often look at and treat the symptoms in isolation. Not treating the individual as a whole to enhance the quality of life because everything is connected.
We are not able to currently get our food and medicine from one place as our indigenous ancestors did.
We are eating inflammatory foods without enough diversity across our diets.
There are hundreds of flavonoids available to you through different plants, fruits and vegetables in your diet but we tend to consume the same things every day.
The extraction process for plant products is often done through hexanes because it’s cost-effective.
Hexanes have been associated with hurting the cell membranes and damaging the central nervous system.
If you are eating fibre with your probiotics then they are able to attach themselves to the fibre and travel successfully into your intestine.
If you can fix your foundations of health then your body will be resilient to other things
Focus on getting your sleep right – so your body can regenerate.
We are more than 75% water if you have good quality water that is conductive then you are helping your body.
Always eat the highest quality foods to support the foundations of health.
There is a balance between pushing to increase your resilience and moving back to do less.
Doing less can lower the inflammation and lower your stress.
Your body will always keep you in check

BEST MOMENTS

‘We need a vast medicinal food chest
‘A lot of the heavy metals become part of your matrix for years’
‘It’s having the whole plant and everything that goes with it, the medicinal qualities that really make the difference’

Meditate to Get Good at Life - Interview with Emily Fletcher, Founder of Ziva Meditation Nov 24, 2020

Angela talks to the founder of Ziva Meditation, Emily Fletcher in this fascinating episode that explores the power of mindfulness, meditation and manifesting when combined together.

The Ziva technique brings together elements that create a whole that is greater than the sum of its parts, bringing bliss and fulfilment internally.

The mind continually thinks in the same way the heart beats involuntarily and being able to slow everything down and create quiet will bring benefits in all areas of your life.

The Ziva technique offers the opportunity to invest a short amount of time daily that make a huge difference to your day and Emily explains exactly how to get started.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

People are waking up to the ways to go inside
We don’t have to keep looking for our calmness, bliss and fulfilment externally
The Ziva technique - Mindfulness, meditation and manifesting
Mindfulness – the art of bringing your awareness into the present moment. It’s great for dealing with the stress you may be feeling now in the present.
Meditation is about healing your stress from the past at acellular level. This makes. You better in life. You have more mental capacity available to you.
Manifesting – consciously creating the life you love. It’s about being intentional and understanding what you want
When we don’t like what our mind is saying we try and quieten it.
Ziva meditation is not about clearing your mind it’s about slowing everything down. In this process, you produce dopamine and serotonin which mean you are able to experience bliss from within and your mind falls silent.
There are always a million reasons to not meditate but when you take the time the return on investment is exponential
When you exercise you are exciting the nervous system.
With Ziva meditation, you are de-exciting the nervous system and this creates order in the body.
Meditation is about investing a short time that makes a huge difference to your day.

BEST MOMENTS

‘Our bodies have a beautiful and complete internal pharmacy; it’s just about learning how to take control of it’
‘It’s hugely empowering and valuable to be able to just close your eyes and be able to access infinite joy and fulfilment internally’
‘When you ask beautiful questions from the right state of mind you will get beautiful answers’

Turning Your Body Into a Fat-Burning Machine Nov 03, 2020

Angela goes solo in this episode and discusses how you can burn more fat and enhance your metabolism.

To burn more fat and keep lean you need to keep inflammation low and control blood sugar variability. Keep moving and get your 10,000 steps a day, complete strength training at least twice a week with some HIT training and focus on getting enough sleep and eating a plant-based diet. Follow Angela’s advice and you will be able to turn your body into a fat-burning machine.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The quickest way to lose weight is to reduce the amount of food you put into your body from carbon sources
You need to burn fat preferentially as a fuel instead of glucose.
Clean up your diet and reduce inflammation. Inflammation is a huge issue and linked to many chronic diseases.
Control your blood sugar variability. When the body has blood glucose it can either store it in the liver and muscles or as body fat.
If you are looking to burn fat mastering blood sugar variability is key.
if you are consuming foods rich in STAC’s this enhances the activities of sirtuins.
You must be continually moving and strength training should be done 2-3 times a week
Completing around an hour of exercise daily will increase your metabolic rate 7 fold
You can enhance your metabolism by doing 60 seconds of exercise prior to eating as this has been shown to lower insulin resistance.
The original stubborn fat 1.0 protocol developed by Lyle McDonald can be very effective in weight loss.
Being under slept has been shown to affect weight loss directly and achieving good sleep is a huge factor in weight loss.

BEST MOMENTS

‘You need to continually change the exercises you are doing’

‘Whole food sources of carbohydrate are much better for you’

‘The primary cause of inflammation is processed vegetable oils’

How to Optimise Your Mind & Body with Shawn Wells, The World's Greatest Formulator Oct 12, 2020

In this fascinating episode, Angela talks with Shawn Wells, product formulator and expert in performance nutrition, longevity, fitness and supplementation.

Biohacker and Keto authority Shawn shares great insights into how to explore keto and find what works for you, the importance of fasting and optimising adaptogens to build resilience.

He also explains why it’s so important to find your authentic self and grant yourself grace because we are all who we are meant to be and its adversity that brings inner strength and gratitude that brings impact and meaning to our lives.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

There are many different ways to explore keto, there are no rules it’s all about you exploring you and what works for you.
Ketones are a healthy alternate fuel source, in the paleo period we would be have been metabolically flexible with 50% of our fuel ketones.
With wholefoods you will feel less tired and fuller when you eat, you will be eating to live rather than living to eat.
The discipline that comes with fasting can help in a variety of ways across all areas of your life.
You have to be able to enjoy life and give yourself grace - eat healthily for 95% of the time and for the other 5% eat food that makes you happy.
You should be looking to optimise your body and resilience through adaptogens.
Mitochondria are the key to everyone’s health; ‘the next keto is mito’.
Breathwork and gratitude will make an impact on your life.
If 95% of your life is amazing you should be grateful and the 5% that isn’t so great is what gives you stronger resilience, empathy and compassion, it gives you the why in your life
If we didn’t have adversity we wouldn’t have inner strength and purpose.
Everything that happens is what gives you your why.

BEST MOMENTS

‘A ketogenic diet was my solution, it worked dramatically for me’

‘Grant yourself grace, you are who you are meant to be and you are beautiful inside and out’

Build and Cultivate Flexible Resilience with Alexander Manos (Part 2) Oct 05, 2020

Angela and Alex Manos continue with their in-depth conversation and in this episode focus on modern psychedelics and how it offers an opportunity to assess trauma from a completely different perspective.

Your mind and emotions are intrinsically connected and Alex explains why the most important aspects of your health are not physically based but mind-based and how modern psychedelics can bring the opportunities to address and process life events allowing any individual to move forward.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

A lot of us suppress our emotions as part of conditioning in today’s society
We all have storms, emotions and energy within us that is contributing to our resiliency and health.
The psychedelic session made me feel like I was out of my body but in the cosmos somewhere.
I experienced a disconnection that helped me to appreciate the strong connections I have in my life, the psychedelic experience helped me to see the real connections in my life.
It’s a dissolution of yourself and having no boundaries, you are energy, everything and everyone.
We are all from the same place, whatever you want to call that place and we are a projection, wearing a mask and playing a role that is placed upon us by society.
The most important parts of health are not physically based but mind-based. When there is trauma in a life story it can manifest as a physical illness further on in life.
Your mind and emotions are interconnected.
Trauma is energy that wasn’t discharged at the time of the event and subsequently becomes stored in the nervous system of the body. To achieve an equilibrium the body needs to discharge the energy
Modern psychedelics is about assessing trauma from a completely different perspective.

BEST MOMENTS

‘It was life-changing – the breathwork session’

‘It was an experience that was so profound and so moving’

‘We are so in our own story we are blind to it and we need structure to be able to be within it’

Build and Cultivate Flexible Resilience with Alexander Manos (Part 1) Sep 28, 2020

Angela is with Alex Manos - mentor, lecturer, coach and functional medicine practitioner.

Alex uses the concept of resilience to create a holistic approach to health and performance and in Part 1 of this 2 part interview, he discusses with Angela physical, mental, emotional and spiritual resilience.

In this fascinating in-depth look at what it truly means to be resilient Alex explains how being resilient is all about flexibility and being able to adapt to the needs placed upon us.

If you can understand how to develop a strong sense of self and build your resilience then you will be able to put your best self forward and thrive.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Physical resilience is our ability to bounce back from an adverse event and is related to areas such as cortisol levels, blood pressure and blood glucose.
Homeostasis is achieving a set point which you seek to maintain. Allostasis is the idea that we have to adapt according to the circumstances and environment to maintain homeostasis.
Allostatic overload is the concept that when the stress system has been overwhelmed, you no longer return to the set point.
View stress holistically, there is controlled stress and uncontrollable stress, you should be looking for resiliency for the things you can’t control.
Self-awareness is a foundational element for resilience because you need to be aware of what is going on for you both internally and externally to understand where you are.
Resilience is flexibility in everything, it’s about being able to adapt to the needs that are being placed upon us.
Emotional resilience is being able to regulate your emotional state during challenging times.
We can cultivate positive emotional states consciously such as gratitude and love and this has an impact on our HRV, immune system and stress.
Spiritual resilience is about understanding your needs and having a purpose in your life.
You need to understand what your values are and what’s important to you.

BEST MOMENTS

‘We are with every client trying to build or cultivate resiliency’

Angela is in conversation with Tony Wrighton, histamine intolerance journalist, Sky Sports Presenter and host of ‘The Zestology Podcast’.

Both Tony and Angela are passionate about optimising their health and in this wide-ranging conversation, they discuss a variety of hacks to improve your health including natural hacks they are personally exploring that can easily be tried by anyone wanting to enhance their health.

In this episode packed with valuable content, they discuss topics including hormones throughout the menstrual cycle, the importance of protein, respecting recovery as a key part of your routine and Tony’s passion project histamine intolerance with great advice on how to test and understand any histamine intolerance.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

When you have been pushed to a position of ‘burn out’ the time it takes to rebuild shouldn’t be underestimated.
When you are in a position where your body is trying to stimulate cortisol production it will eventually compromise immune function.
You have to learn to fully respect recovery and its importance in your routine.
When you have an iron deficiency it negatively impacts any nootropics you may take.
Sometimes you need a gentler workout, depending on how you feel and what you’ve done.
As hormone levels start to drop, into your forties, It’s vital to make sure you are getting enough protein, stimulating muscle protein synthesis through eating protein and doing resistance training.
The more muscle fibre you have the better your oestrogen levels are.
A histamine intolerance is when you create too much histamine in the body.
Some foods have histamine and some foods create a histamine reaction
Freshly prepared food is best for anyone who has an intolerance of histamine.
You can reduce histamine in your diet and then gradually work back towards a more normal diet.
Nutrition is a very important aspect of managing histamine levels and you can effectively test to see if you have a histamine intolerance.
Your histamine levels are influenced by the foods you eat and focusing on the quality of your food can make a positive difference.

BEST MOMENTS

It’s definitely different for women because of the fluctuating hormones throughout the month’

‘It’s about getting more in tune with yourself and understanding what you should be doing’

The Way You Breathe – Interview with Richie Bostock ‘The Breath Guy’ Sep 14, 2020

Angela is with Richie Bostock a leading figure for Breathwork across the world. He wants everyone to understand the power of a tool that everyone has – your breath.

In this episode, Richie talks with Angela about how to not only get started with Breathwork but also the transformative effect it will have on your life.

The way you breathe affects every system and function of your body so how you breathe has a direct effect on your physical, mental and emotional well-being and this is a great opportunity to understand more about how you can use the breath purposefully with extensive advice and information.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Moving straight into action when you wake can move you to a spike in stress.
You can slowly wake up by taking 10 slow deep breaths and then relax and sigh out.
Each lever of the breath is so delicate it can completely transform an experience.
Everyone’s relationship with their breath is very personal and very different.
To down-regulate your nervous system you can use a slower form of breathing.
Learn to become more delicate and ration your breath when using a slower breath-form.
When you inhale or exhale as much as you can you are introducing tension because you are working at the extremes.
A healthy breath range is usually around 9 to 12 breaths per minute but most people will be in a range of around 12 to 16 breaths per minute.
Breathing is a behaviour and understanding the emotional aspect will make the biggest difference.
When you are stressed you incorporate secondary breathing muscles to support the potential of the fight or flight mode.
The way that you breathe reflects how you are feeling.
Breathwork is energy work and does affect the energy systems.

BEST MOMENTS

‘The breath is rhythmic and quite fast-paced’

‘Your breath is intimately linked to your nervous system’

‘Pay attention to how it feels to breathe and you will find a subtle difference between the yes and no breath’

Heart Rate Variability and Why it Matters – Interview with Dr Jay Wiles Sep 07, 2020

Angela is Dr Jay Wiles a clinical health psychologist who works with individuals looking at the interconnection between mind and body

They discuss HRV and how the variation in time between heartbeats is the best singular insight into the nervous system.

Modulation of the nervous system is about taking reconditioning and taking control as HRV regulation is about self-awareness and self-regulation.

Dr Jay explains how to optimise and modulate your HRV to be in control of your nervous system in this fascinating and informative episode.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

If you choose to use a wearable then you need to understand how to interpret the data you are collecting.
Know what you are measuring and how to measure it
Your ability to modulate HRV demonstrates control of the nervous system and is more important than a higher or lower HRV.
HRV is the best singular window to view the nervous system function.
HRV provides the opportunity to see whether the sympathetic nervous system is in fight or flight and if the parasympathetic response is being used.
You need to be able to modulate the nervous system
You have to use your physiology to be aware of the stress responses in the body
Your breathing rate can help to modulate your HRV
Breathing very slow and low helps to stimulate and stretch the vagus nerve.
There are many advantages to being able to optimise and modulate your HRV well.
Modulation of HRV is affected by certain types of exercise
HIT training is effective and you can track your HRV to determine how effective the exercise has been.
The sympathetic nervous system can help when you face stressful situations
The key is being able to regulate your HRV at will then you will be in control of your performance.
There are many variables that can affect the baseline of your HRV so tracking and reviewing a two week period provides a good insight into what your baseline is.
If you are tracking be consistent and understand what affects you.

BEST MOMENTS

‘With REM sleep your heart rate increases, because this is the time when you are dreaming’

‘Having a higher heart rate variability is associated with better performance’

‘HRV is information it’s what you do with the information that makes the difference’

Finding Your Authentic Soul – Interview with Ben Bidwell, The Naked Professor Aug 31, 2020

Angela is with Ben Bidwell ‘The Naked Professor’, he discusses his journey of discovery and how he is now navigating his way through life as his authentic self.

They discuss the role of ego in today’s society and how learning to feel and finding the truth in our hearts is the key to finding your soul and expressing yourself.

Anyone can change but you need to be prepared to work at it if you want to experience

your true emotions and live with self-love and connection to others.

If you can learn to just ‘be’ and ‘in flow’ you will experience so much more in life and so much more will ultimately come to you.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

I didn’t feel I was authentically myself but gradually pieces of the jigsaw began to fall in place and there were little epiphany moments.
I began to understand that I was not all these things I thought I was, all of those things are a result of growing up as a child and what I had perceived.
My work is about helping people to let go of the conversation in their head and understand why it’s there.
If you hear those thoughts repeatedly in your head you start to believe them
The first step is to understand that you have limiting beliefs.
I have learnt that if you can’t choose what you feel, if you learn to feel and are in-tune with your emotions and your heart you will feel good things and bad things.
Men are lost as to who they are supposed to be and there are constant contradictions.
What feels natural for a man can often be ego led behaviour.
Being over-attached to our ego can lead to many negative ways of living.
As an individual there is a sense of something missing when you are driven by your ego, you have to bury your heart and disconnect from your emotions.
Our heart is our truth its who we really are and it doesn’t need any validation.
Anyone can change but they need to be prepared to be brave and undertake the work.

BEST MOMENTS

‘Expressing yourself is the key to being free’

‘When you come from a place of love you invite special things in’

‘We all have trauma inside of us and we can all go on the journey to improve who we are’

Doing the Minimum to Achieve the Maximum – Interview with Dr Marc Bubbs Aug 24, 2020

Angela is with Dr Marc Bubbs who works with professional sports teams, leaders and is author of ‘Peak The New Science of Athletic Performance That is Revolutionizing Sports’

They discuss his holistic approach to performance, nutrition and mindset and the important lessons that can be learnt from those who are successful high performers.

Being consistent in your approach is a key in the journey to optimising all aspects of your health and well-being and Dr Marc shares great information and advice on how to achieve good nutrition and a positive mindset.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

There is much to be learnt from those who are successfully high performing.
Being consistent is a fundamental element.
When you are organising your time schedule activities at the times you are most likely to achieve them consistently.
Minimum effective resistance exercise is 10 sets per body part each week.
Always think ‘what’s the minimum I have to do for the maximum benefit?’
Diversity is key for optimising your microbiome.
Fitness helps to build gut bacteria and eating more real food and a greater variety of food will support diverse gut bacteria.
Protein is vital because when we take in protein we also take in minerals and vitamins.
Discipline needs to be used to create good habits.
The difference in skills between top athletes is very minimal it’s ultimately about mindset.
As humans, we default to negative thoughts and when life gets busy you need to train your mindset to be positive and this can be achieved through affirmations.
It’s important to understand how you view things is a trainable skill.
The brain defaults to thinking negative thoughts and affirmations can be used to effectively change the way you view things.
Affirmations can be short and about what you want to happen, taking less than a minute. They have a positive compound effect on the way your brain works.
What you eat and how you move are the key to having a better life.

BEST MOMENTS

‘50% of what we buy is ultra-processed’

‘The principle of consuming more real food is the start of achieving better nutrition’

Regulating Hormones Naturally for Optimum Health with Kelsey Hess Transformational Nutrition Coach Aug 17, 2020

Kelsey Hess is a certified Transformational Nutrition coach specialising in women’s health and thyroid disorders, she is currently the content and brand manager at Kion, a supplement and lifestyle company co-founded by Ben Greenfield and based in Colorado.

In this episode, she discusses intermittent fasting and the reasons why women need to approach it differently to men and how balancing hormones is key for any woman’s optimal health.

She also explains seed cycling as a natural way of regulating hormones and how women can effectively change their patterns and types of exercise through the menstrual cycle to achieve optimum results.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Women have to be viewed from an ancestral perspective. Women have to have enough stored nutrients to be able to both carry and nurture a baby.
Balanced hormones at optimum levels are key to women’s overall health.
For women in their 20s,30s and 40s there are benefits to fasting for 12 hours and this can easily be achieved by fasting from 6 pm to 6 am.
Not eating 3 to 4 hours before sleeping helps as you will not be expending energy digesting food when your body is undertaking a cellular clean up.
For losing weight you could use intermittent fasting with a 16-18 hour fasting window 5 days a week.
Fasting every day can de-regulate thyroid production impacting on brain fat, the metabolism and maintaining muscle.
The concept of changing your workouts around your menstrual cycle identifies the difference in hormones in the follicular phase and the luteal phase of the cycle.
In seed cycling, you take seeds to boost selected hormones at different times it’s about regulating the levels of hormones naturally at different points of the cycle.
Get out in the natural light, get grounded and get good sleep because health shouldn’t be complicated.

BEST MOMENTS

‘Everyone can benefit from a 12 hour fast’

‘Listen to your body, women often take advice based on studies undertaken with men’

‘Ask yourself what you want to get out of fasting?’

Why The Secret To Ultimate Fitness Is Not Working Out! With David Birtwistle. Aug 10, 2020

Angela is talking with David Birtwistle Movement and Nutrition Coach and co-founder of the Endeavour Life Program. The program combines nutrition, movement and mindset in a holistic approach to health and well-being.

They discuss how to approach strength in pursuit of longevity and the role self-belief and confidence plays in being able to realise the goals you set and make successful progress.

David also explains how nutrition impacts on muscle development and how your nutritional needs alter as you develop strength and increase your muscles.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The most important factor in fitness and health is mindset and approach
The ‘why is a massive driver but it doesn’t guarantee success it’s also dependant on your level of self-belief and confidence.
If you don’t have self-belief possibly because of earlier life experiences then you will find achieving your goals challenging.
The biggest factor affecting longevity is strength and this should underpin your exercise activities.
The longer you can be physically strong and capable the better.
Resistance training should be a fundamental component of any training program.
You should be aiming for at least 2 sessions a week of resistance training.
Increasing the stimulus to the muscles as you develop your strength will ensure that you continue to grow stronger.
You can increase load, volume and other variables when resistance training.
If you can develop strength you are also loading your bones in a progressive way and this can be beneficial later in life.
To develop muscle strength lifting weights in sets of 8-12 reps will increase hypertrophy.
Always being willing to learn means you can continue to evolve.

BEST MOMENTS

‘Your body shape will change gradually over time as you grow muscle tissue’

‘The most rewarding component is when somebody makes the shift in their mindset and begins to achieve’

‘Develop a culture in those around you of communication and openness’

Angela is talking with Georgie Collinson who is an expert in optimising peoples physiological health to support mental health and cognition.

In this episode, she talks to Angela about anxiety, gut health and some of the causes of inflammation in the body.

Georgie explains the impact of different food groups on the gut and shares practical advice on how to make changes that will make a difference.

This is a great opportunity to reflect on the signs and symptoms that help us all to know how things are going and take positive action to improve our health.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The processing that foods go through is a significant factor in the amount of damage these foods can cause to the gut.
You should always look for the minimum number of ingredients in any product.
If you have symptoms that disrupt your life prior to menstruation then you are likely to have a deficiency of progesterone. This deficiency is usually a result of stress.
Too much of anything is not great and if you notice inflammation when you have dairy then stop having it.
If anyone is experiencing anxiety, then stopping caffeine can help to identify if your body functions better without it.
There are benefits to caffeine so finding out how it affects you is the key to knowing what’s right for you.
Anxiety is a normal human emotion and can be a great navigation tool helping us to navigate to the things that benefit us.
If you have a panic attack the best thing you can do is to try and allow the feeling of anxiety to be there and understand it.
Allowing the sensation to be there is one of the most effective ways to be in control of it.
The power a panic attack has goes away when you learn to accept it.
Understanding that you cannot help anyone when you are depleted is about recognising you need to look after yourself so you can show up and help everyone else.

BEST MOMENTS

‘If you try and fight a panic attack it gains momentum’

‘Giving to yourself means you are able to others’

‘I’m neutral in my approach because I don’t want people to be anxious about food’

Greg has focused on making sustainably performing at your best convenient, simple and delicious through a nut-based long range fuel product. To ensure the needs of individuals can be met across various scenarios and at differing points of the day, there are 4 versions available to support before, during and after exercise activities.

Long range fuel products are the result of experience and cutting edge science and helped to power the record-breaking effort to row the Atlantic in 2019 and in this episode Greg explains how to get the greatest benefits from this exciting new product.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Long range foods are required in ultra-endurance activities and also support strength, power activities and knowledge work.

Why You MUST HAVE Balance of Mindset & Movement; The Physical, Chemical and Emotional Mechanics of Long Distance Running With Chiropractor Dr Josh Handt Jul 30, 2020

Angela is in conversation with Dr Josh Handt, full-time chiropractor, lifestyle podcaster and natural health and fitness enthusiast

They talk about the importance of the nervous system and its impact on all aspects of function in the body. Movement is essential for humans but the body is not designed to be in a continual state of stress so the physiology of the body reflects the emotional state.

As humans are designed to run getting out there and running can be the key to a better balance of your emotional state.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Movement is essential and very important for humans; you should be moving all the time.
Sitting or standing for a length of time is never good for the body as it throws out the posture.
The central nervous system is the master control system for the whole body constantly sending information messages throughout the body.
The sensory nervous system is responsible for feelings and how you engage with life.
The motor system is how we animate our bodies and the autonomic system is the system responsible for the involuntary actions.
The way you keep healthy is by maximising function
Stressors for the body are physical, chemical and emotional.
Your body is not designed to be in a continual state of chronic stress Your physiology is a response to your emotional state.
Humans are born to run and the nervous system in our feet is very complex, sending messages continually to the brain.
when running the biomechanics of the body are affected by the shoes we wear.
For short distance running, you use your body but distances beyond this are all about your mindset.

BEST MOMENTS

‘I love sharing my message and pushing my body and mind to the limit’

‘The focus should be on making the good bits as good as they can be’

‘You know you are doing well in running and exercise when your recovery time is quick’

Metabolic Flexibility: Achieve Your Ideal Body Composition & Burn Fats and Carbs on demand with Siim Land Jul 23, 2020

Angela is with Siim Land author, speaker and content creator talking about biohacking and health optimisation through metabolic flexibility

Siim shares some great content and information about understanding how to adapt your body so it can choose what fuel to burn on demand making you better at burning fat, burning carbs and developing all-round metabolic flexibility.

They also discuss the vital role quality of sleep plays in health optimisation and longevity in an episode packed with informative content.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Metabolic flexibility refers to the body’s ability to swop between fuel sources.
The human body can be very flexible and has a number of different sources for fuel.
Everyone’s diet should be personalised and the goal should be to be keto-adapted rather than in ketosis all the time.
A cyclical keto diet is when you eat low carbs for a period and then eat carbs to refuel.
The main stimulus for muscle growth is mechanical overload when the muscles are stimulated.
Working out in a fasted state will facilitate more fat burning because of fuel partitioning but you still need to be working with a calorie deficit.
There will be a reduction in your metabolic rate as you lose weight, so there needs to be a reduction in the natural calorie intake.
Sleep deprivation and stress can impact on weight loss as it makes your body hold onto fat
If you are constantly running on adrenalin then your body will start to produce less cortisol because the adrenals become fatigued.
Focusing on the quality of your sleep is key because sleep deprivation can have an impact across many areas of your body.

BEST MOMENTS

‘Metabolic flexibility enables the body to burn a required fuel on-demand’

‘If you get up in the morning and feel fatigued then it’s a sign of low cortisol’

‘Sleep is one of the most important factors for longevity’

Maximise oxygen utilisation efficiency, enhance mental clarity and exercise performance, alleviate asthma and protect against viruses and bacteria with Patrick McKeown author of The Oxygen Advantage Jul 16, 2020

Angela is with Patrick McKeown, author of The Oxygen Advantage.

They explore the values of breathing through the nose and the long term effects for those who mouth breathe.

Breathing is both very simple and very complex and evolution has, in the nose, created an effective initial line of defence against viruses and infection whilst the way in which we breathe impacts throughout the body. This informative episode provides great value and in-depth information about this vital function of the human body.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

When you hold your breath, you open up your nose. The more you breathe through your nose the more it opens up.
Breathing is both very simple and very complex.
Whenever we are confronted by stress we breathe hard and fast. Slow breathing is conducive to calming the mind.
A child’s achievement is linked to their sleep and their sleep is influenced by how they breathe.
In the process of breathing too hard, you can get rid of too much carbon dioxide, impair blood circulation and affect tissue and organ saturation.
Your nose is there to breathe in and out of and evolution has done a wonderful job.
Your nose is your first line of defence against viruses and infection.
We can change our blood circulation through breathing patterns. We can change biomechanics and biochemistry of breathing to increase functions throughout the body.
Breathing can be trained regardless of the environment and situation
Your mouth serves no function in regards to breathing.
If a child mouth breathes for a long time it comprises the shape of the face.
Children who are mouth breathing are unlikely to reach their full potential
We have to look at the bio directional relationship of breathing, sleeping and our emotions along with the interconnections.

BEST MOMENTS

‘It’s all about breathing in and out through the nose’

‘The nose is the first line of defence for the lungs’

‘Your mouth serves no function with regard to breathing’

Gut Health and Mental Health Making the Connection - Interview with Ryan Evans, Dietician and specialist in Gut Micro Biology Jul 09, 2020

In this episode, Angela is talking with Ryan Evans former bodybuilder, MMA fighter and registered dietician with a particular interest in gut microbiology and mental health.

As a bodybuilder Ryan looked healthy but inside was a different story. After learning to heal himself he now dedicates his time to helping others understand the role gut microbiology plays in not only your physical health but also your mental health.

He explains how to get your nutrition right and make the changes that will mean you are looking after yourself well inside and out.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

I was very unaware of what was going on with me. I looked great but never felt happy in my body.
Our gut is our first brain not our second brain because it is where all the neurotransmitters and hormones are.
Most of the time-poor gut health is a result of a diet high in sugars, carbs, and in inorganic and dead food.
We are eating food from dead soil that has no nutrients but has significant quantities of chemicals and pesticides.
Our mental health problems are increasing as our gut health is decreasing.
Nutrition is everything you should eat things in the most wild and natural state.
It’s important to get back to basics and eat good whole foods for your metabolic type and individual need.
People go by how they feel on the day immediately after eating but the response may only be evident days later.
Food produces hormones and neurotransmitters and if you are deficient in hormones and neurotransmitters you are going to feel unwell.
If you are spending time working out then you also need to spend time working in and recovering from what happens in your day.
Our issues are in our tissues so it’s important to move your body in a gentle way to calm yourself.
If you can start the day in gratitude then you are setting yourself up in a positive way for the day ahead.
Who do you really want to be and does your inside match your outside?

BEST MOMENTS

‘IBS is a very wide term used when people can’t get to the bottom of gut issues’

‘I’m an advocate for people eating best-sourced food as possible, it just makes sense’

‘I’m all about being intuitive about how my body is feeling and adapting’

Optimising Integrated Health & Achieving Balance - Interview with Thomas Olivier CEO and founder of Omnos Jul 02, 2020

Angela is in conversation with Thomas Olivier CEO and founder of Omnos an intelligent health system that enables optimisation through knowledge, planning and prevention.

Democratising health, making it more accessible to everyone is key if people are to take control of their lives, make the changes that will bring balance and optimise their health and well-being.

It’s now easier than ever to understand your own background and when you are able to combine data you are able to gain a balanced overview of yourself and understand what to do to achieve balance.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

People can take control of their lives and make changes that will benefit their lives and achieve balance.
It’s about integrated health, we are complex individuals and nothing works in isolation.
Chronic conditions can be avoided if you make lifestyle changes early on. People can be more proactive about their health but to do this they need to be educated.
When you start to look at your own biology and realise you are unique, you become more engaged with yourself.
If you want to find out the real state of you right now functional testing is key.
This is your health; your data and you should have ownership of it. Your genetic test is always a really good starting point.
Being a part of the testing process and becoming educated about yourself as a part of the process is empowering.
When the data belongs to you it is possible for you to share it with others chosen by you
Health data is increasingly a commodity and its value is increasing so data ownership moving forward is vital.

BEST MOMENTS

‘It’s about combining data and understanding what to do to achieve balance’

‘Lots of people have issues that they want to sort out but they need access to data that will allow them to gain a helicopter view’

‘It’s about connecting the dots and being able to navigate through’

Fasting Episode Jun 25, 2020

People undertake fasting for a variety of reasons and it’s important to begin by considering why you want to fast as your starting point. There are many benefits and Angela is looking at these in detail along with how to begin and how to maintain intermittent fasting, making it part of a sustainable routine.

When starting with intermittent fasting it’s important to begin slowly and be consistent over an initial 6-week period to see the positive results and Angela shares great advice on how to begin and successfully maintain an intermittent fasting pattern that is right for you and your lifestyle.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Fasting is about limiting food over a time period.
Always consider the reasons why you want to fast.
If you are fasting ensure you are getting enough protein.
There is a difference between fasting and caloric restriction.
Fasting involves not eating for a set period of time and then eating within a limited time known as ‘compressed eating window’
Caloric restriction involves intentionally restricting and lowering your calorie intake.
Time-restricted eating is where food is consumed within a certain time period and the most popular approaches are the 12/12 and the 16/8 strategies
Start with a 12-hour overnight period of fasting and use gentle exercise within the time period to enhance the effects of fasting.
Consistency is really important, making your fast part of your routine will bring the best results.
The health benefits increase with a smaller compressed eating window if you are using fasting to lose weight.
You should aim to come out of your fast in a calm state and choose foods that are easy to digest.
Prior to and on exiting fasting, consuming lower carbohydrate food is beneficial.

BEST MOMENTS

‘Intermittent fasting helps to lower inflammation’

‘Any fasting schedule needs to be the one that suits the individual’

Feel & Look Younger with the Right Food Compounds Jun 18, 2020

In this solo-sode, Angela looks at food compounds that when included in your diet can make you feel younger, look younger, live younger and increase your metabolism.

Angela has been undertaking research for her upcoming book and in an exclusive taster of what’s to come in the book she shares advice on the foods that contain sirtuins and explains how these foods mimic the effects of fasting and exercise along with great information about other foods and food compounds that can make a difference to your health and wellbeing when they are included in your diet in the right way.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Food compounds can be used to help you to look younger, feel younger and be younger through increasing your metabolism.
STACks activate an ancient family of genes known as sirtuins
It has been shown that those people who are lean have higher levels of sirtuins whilst those who are obese have lower levels.
Foods rich in STACks have a significant effect on fat-burning whilst also increasing muscle mass and improving cellular fitness.
Consuming sirtuin foods and taking sirtuin activators can be a powerful combination for enhancing your metabolism and youthfulness
One of the fundamental processes in life is the ability of organisms to respond to stressors.
Hormesis is the concept that low levels of stress can improve health and well-being through the stimulation of the stress response.
For the hormesis to be effective the dose must be correct.
Zenohormesis is the process by which one organism benefits from the stress of another.

BEST MOMENTS

‘Wild strawberries have higher levels of anti-oxidants than those produced commercially’

‘It triggers a stress response that has been evolving for nearly a billion years’

‘You can get incredible results from including STACks in your diet’

Using DNA Tests to Transform Your Health - Andrew Steele from DNA Fit Jun 04, 2020

Angela is with Andrew Steele former GB Olympic medal holder, a founding member of DNA fit and head of product to find out about how they use DNA testing to transform results in sport, weight loss and preventative health.

In this deep dive episode, find out all about how DNA testing can help you to optimise your health and wellbeing and why your genes are not your destiny it’s the epigenetics, the expression of your genes, that makes the difference to your health and longevity. Shining a light on the nature part of the nature, nurture equation is the key to understanding and provides information that can be used to successfully improve outcomes for any individual.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

When the environment is the same but people’s outcomes are different the question is what is the other factor?
DNA testing highlights the nature part of the nature-nurture equation.
It provides another piece of information that can be used by individuals to improve their outcomes.
You can use genetic data to help you reach your goals, it will help you to get better quicker.
For nutrition genetic data helps with sustained changes in behaviours.
People have a specific internal motivation as to ‘why’. They know they are made in a particular way and require particular nutrition.
There is self-motivation for making one choice over another.
There is a complete spectrum of diets that we are familiar with and individuals will have greatly differing experiences with them.
There are 2 macronutrient groups that can be looked at;

-Response to saturated fats

-Response to refined carbohydrates

This layer of ‘why’ and understanding how it is different for each person is important in making a difference.
It’s a powerful motivation tool when you understand the impact of your genetics.
Circle is the world’s most comprehensive DNA test reporting on 500 different genetic traits across 20 categories.
Whole enzyme sequencing looks at every single part of the active or protein-coding part of the human genome.

BEST MOMENTS

‘Healthy lifestyle options are key, it’s about influencing our epigenetics’

‘I’ve aligned my diet with my genetics’

Are you heading for burnout? What is your body trying to tell you, with Adrenal and Hormone Expert Marek Doyle May 28, 2020

Angela is with Marek Doyle who specialises in personalised nutrition. He provides answers that are backed by data and talks with Angela about how he assesses test results to determine where an individual is on their journey and what imbalances are the limiting factors for wellbeing.

As an individual who himself suffered from metabolic issues over a number of years, Marek has used his own experiences and extensive research to build a comprehensive understanding of human metabolism. He discusses the small indicators and compensations that we make, adjusting to a new ‘norm’ when we should be paying attention and taking action.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

When measuring heart rate variability, preliminary research indicates, if the number is 35 or below then you are potentially too sympathetically engaged and may run into problems with your immune system being downgraded along with other metabolic responses in the body.
There are multiple ways your sympathetic nervous system will be activated.
The limbic system is waiting for sensory input that may be important information that requires an immediate response from the body.
Inflammation activates certain parts of the brain and is characterised by its potential to drive excess glutamate signalling.
Glutamate is an important neurotransmitter which switches the brain on but excess levels result in too much signalling to the brain.
There are a range of common possibilities that need to be considered when helping an individual with their sympathetic activation.
The question to be answered for every individual is – ‘what is the rate-limiting factor for them?’
You can’t take supplements or eat your way out of fatigue because it’s a sensation.
You need to look at what you can do so that your central nervous system doesn’t produce the sensation.
Ultimately it’s important to pay attention to the small indicators from your body and make the right changes.

BEST MOMENTS

‘Our bodies are consistently communicating with us about pain and fatigue’

‘You can begin by looking at what your own patterns are through journaling’

‘Getting enough oxygen, having an anti-inflammatory diet and having good sleep hygiene are important’

Leadership Hacker May 14, 2020

Angela is with Steve Rush, author of the best-selling book, Leadership Cake and the Host of The Leadership Hacker Podcast. As CEO of Improov Consulting, he's a People and Business Transformation Expert and Leadership Coach, helping organisations and individual leaders globally improve performance, productivity and engagement

Angela and Steve discuss the importance of sleep, recovery and understanding that creating governance, clear structure and discipline are fundamental if you want to achieve freedom and maintain high performance.

Great leadership is about empowering others and having high levels of self-awareness and Steve shares great information about what you can do to grow your own self-awareness and why the support of others to help you understand how your work is perceived is what makes the difference, listen in and learn more.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

We spend more time in non-verbal communication so understanding sensory acuity is key.

We are programmed from a very early age but we are able to continually able to pivot and change our thinking. If you want to instil new behaviours it’s about routines and repetition.
Visualisation and having an end goal is vital but it all starts with basic foundations of what am I going to do today and how am I going to do it?
We all want to be in control and feel important. Learning to give control away of the things you can give away control of is the key to creating freedom
If we don’t give ourselves the ability to be organised, disciplined and get things done then we will never be able to do the things we want to do.
Creating governance and clear structure and discipline is what allows you to maintain high performance.
Recovery is a paradigm shift – you have to take time out to be more productive. Recovery is about doing something that helps you to regenerate and gives you energy. It could be as simple as taking a walk or being thoughtful for a few minutes.
Its ultimately about loving what you do and having a passion for what you do. When you have a passion, you will have energy.

BEST MOMENTS

‘If I am working late there is a give back in my diary schedule’

‘The Charlie Chaplin effect - research has shown that as a species after 15-20 minutes we are looking for a distraction’

‘To maintain high performance, we have to take timeout’

Why Managing Your Stress Level is Key to Managing Blood Sugar Variability May 07, 2020

High blood sugar is a factor in many chronic diseases and in this episode, Angela shares the results of tracking her own blood sugar levels. She explains what blood sugar variability means for your body and shares great practical advice that can be used immediately to manage blood sugar levels.

Stress is present in all our lives and Angela explains how cortisol impacts the body and

the actions you can take, to control your levels of cortisol, manage your blood sugar variability and optimise your life and longevity.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Keeping cortisol low is important for blood composition. Stress leads to the elevation of cortisol and cortisol raises blood sugar.
Exercising in the morning means you are making the best of the ketones that are available and potentially increase fat burning.
To keep your body in a fat-burning mode you need to avoid eating a diet high in carbohydrates and refined sugar.
When blood sugar rises and insulin is released it triggers the body to store fat instead of burning it.
Exercise has been shown to help move sugar into the muscles for storage and causes an immediate increase in insulin sensitivity
Research has shown that both aerobic and resistance training increase insulin sensitivity but a combination of both is the most effective and high-intensity interval training is the most time-efficient way to achieve this.
The immune system does not perform as well when you are under stress its ability to fight infection is reduced.
There are actions you can take to lower your stress levels, social connection and getting outside along with mediation and breath work will all make a difference.
Your breath is your superpower, it’s the easiest way into your parasympathetic nervous system and using breathwork can bring a sense of calm and lower cortisol levels.

BEST MOMENTS

‘Chronically stressed people can be skinny fat because high-stress levels cause fat to be stored in the abdominal area’

‘It is more beneficial to focus on low carbohydrate and polyphenol-rich fruits such as berries and avocados’

‘Resistance training has been shown to increase insulin sensitivity’

What are Your Symptoms Telling You? – Interview with Christian Thomson, Health & Wellness Consultant Apr 30, 2020

Angela is with Christian Thomson, Health and Wellness Consultant and a World Kickboxing champion who throughout his career as an athlete suffered from the symptoms of an unexplained chronic condition. He ultimately healed himself and now works to help others optimise their health.

They discuss the increasing number of problems that as a species we are choosing to live with ‘ because it’s not really that bad’ when we should be taking notice of these symptoms and taking action to make changes.

It begins by understanding where your health is now and Christian and Angela discuss the ways in which you can test and understand markers so that you can make the right changes for you.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

DNA and microbiome testing can lay an important part in understanding how your body works and achieving optimal health
Symptoms are subjective but are good indicators and a good starting place when assessing health.
Many people have a range of symptoms but put them down to stress and busy lifestyles. It’s important not to ignore any symptoms.
Your immunity can be comprised in many ways so a good starting point is to identify how well your immune system is working. The impact our food environment has on our immune system is significant.
Feelings of energy and health are very subjective but as a species, we are now so used to living with problems that we continue on but any symptoms are an early warning sign that there are problems.
Metabolic inflexibility comes down to a dysregulation in the ability to balance the foods we eat.
To start you need to understand where your health is and where your priorities lie and reduce the stress in your life.
Metabolic analysis – can see how your energy changes when you are exercising and at rest. This can show your exercise tolerance.

BEST MOMENTS

‘Fasting is a great tool to maintain health except when you do not have the capacity to balance our internal stress levels’

‘Everything happens for a reason in bio-chemistry’

‘Taking known supplements in large doses can have an impact on the balance of the immune system’

Being You is Always Good Enough – Tatiana Kassessinoff Clinical Hypnotherapist, Transformational therapist & host of the ‘London Heal Podcast’ Apr 23, 2020

Tatiana Kassessinoff is the host of the ‘London Heal Podcast’, Clinical Hypnotherapist, Advanced RTT Practitioner and Transformational therapist and in this episode, she is discussing with Angela the fear and anxiety that many are experiencing in these very unsettled times and how meditation and affirmations along with trust in our human nature can change things for anyone.

They discuss the science behind the emotions and how we all initially create limiting beliefs and how if you want to you can change your life. Because it is not what happens to you it’s the meaning you attach to what happens and this is dependent on your state of mind. Tatiana shares great insights into the importance of self-love and how you can positively change how you interact with the world, listen in and hear more.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Fear and anxiety - It’s important to understand what fear and anxiety are and that it’s fine to experience these feelings. Fear is a survival program that is with us from early childhood. There are many techniques that you can practice to lower your levels of stress along with trust in your human nature, as we are highly adaptable creatures.

Breathing is a great way into the parasympathetic system. Engage in any rhythmic breathing technique where the inhale breathe is shorter than the exhale as this will lower anxiety.

Limiting beliefs - Early beliefs are formed as a result of your experience and in adaptation to your environment. A lot of what you think is you isn’t it’s a result of your programming, but it can be changed.

Any belief is a habit of thinking and you need to get to your unconscious mind if you want to make a change.

Meditation - When you are relaxed you are open to the possibilities and your perception is raised. Manifestation is putting yourself in the position where it could happen and being in a receptive state along with being in an intuitive place.

It’s not what happens to you it’s the meaning you attach to what happens and this is dependent on your state of mind. You can only attach good meanings to the events in your life when you are in a relaxed and rested state.

Self-love and self-care - You know more about exactly what you are doing than anyone else. We need to reinforce self-love and self-care and know that being as you are is good enough.

BEST MOMENTS

‘We are not practising social distancing we are practising physical distancing’

‘It’s important for children to understand they have possibilities’

‘I love meditation, it’s my go-to for everything’

How to treat Coronavirus with Dr Tamsin Lewis, Founder of Wellgevity Apr 16, 2020

Angela is in conversation with Dr. Tamsin Lewis, medical doctor, former GB elite triathlete and founder of Wellgevity. They discuss how we can all be advocates for our own health and work with medical professionals to co-create positive ‘healthspan’ and a more intuitive sense of self.

Being heard and having someone to co-create your ‘healthspan’ is all about asking ‘How do we affect the physiology to affect the psychology? because our perceived view of self, our purpose and connectedness to others is key.

Listen in and hear about not only your ‘healthspan’ but the experience that Dr. Lewis has had with COVID19 and what you can do to be better prepared for a virus that can affect anyone and be different for everyone.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Developing psychological well-being and an intuitive sense of self is key in ‘healthspan’. It is not a generic ‘one size fits all’ and data analysis is a vital part of understanding what is affecting you and what makes a difference.
How do we affect the physiology to affect the psychology?
The filter on your world is dependent on your biochemistry and the dynamic interplay with others on a day to day basis.
From an ancestral perspective, humans evolved with periods of stress followed by periods of downtime; in the world today we want to achieve optimum work all of the time. As humans, we go through periods of flux and we need to be more attune to this.
Women have fluctuating hormone variations on a monthly basis whilst the majority of men have relatively consistent levels of testosterone. So men have far more stability. Our hormones and the variances play a huge part in how we feel and function.

Coronavirus

The effects of this virus are unpredictable it has widespread effects that are different for different people. The widespread post-viral syndrome is extraordinary and we don’t know how long it last
No one is immune from getting this so following the advice issued, wearing a saturation monitor, having adequate supplies of paracetamol and taking good doses of fish oil are actions everyone can implement.
It’s an illness that is very unknown and affects people in different ways and with so many variables it’s important to not to mega dose on any single supplement.
The virus sits around and can reactivate affecting your immune system and triggering inflammation and blood glucose level fluctuation that can take an extended time to recover from.

BEST MOMENTS

‘You can help yourself by wearing an oxygen saturation monitor and if it drops below 96, call someone’

‘We are all reaching out for some security and the issue is that there isn’t any available’

‘If you are going out you should be wearing a mask and wearing gloves because we know the most likely way this virus is shedding is through droplets’

How to Biohack Your Sleep with Dr Jay Khorsandi Apr 09, 2020

There are 3 pillars of health; movement, nutrition and sleep. In this episode, Angela is in conversation with Dr Jay Khorsandi Sleep Expert, Bio Hacker and host of ‘The Best Night Ever! Podcast.

They look at the differences between sleep apnoea and snoring and how they can be treated and discuss the bio hacks that Dr Jay Khorsandi uses to optimise his own sleep.

There are many elements that play a part in good sleep health including nutrition movement and lifestyle.

Angela and Dr Jay discuss the research and what makes a difference including grounding, supplements and infrared light, as someone who has completely optimised his own sleep Dr Jay is someone who knows what works and why and this is a great opportunity to hear him share his knowledge, listen in and enjoy.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

There is a big difference between sleep apnoea and snoring. Snoring is a result of the body and its muscles relaxing whilst sleep apnoea is when you repeatedly stop and start breathing during your sleep.
Ideal sleep architecture is Initial deep sleep in 90-minute cycles moving towards REM sleep later in the pattern.
How well you sleep at night starts with the routine of the morning before. When you wake you should get outside and look at the blue of the sky. During a sunrise, there is a high amount of infrared and you will benefit from the full spectrum if you are able to watch this.
When we are sleeping the body is resting, rejuvenating and you need to give it the resources to do this. You need to have the right amount of sleep and the right quality. The 2 things that regulate our sleep the most are temperature and light.
Earthing - As we go about the day we build up a positive charge in static electricity and we need to get rid of this because a build-up over time can cause inflammation and disease.
The digital world means more EMF so it’s important to find ways to mitigate the effects and 20 minutes grounding each day with as much skin exposure is a good way to achieve this.
There are 3 pillars of health movement, nutrition and sleep and if you can get these 3 in sync the chances of developing any chronic disease is decreased.

BEST MOMENTS

‘We have a set of rules in our DNA but we can change them through our actions and behaviours’

‘The more you can connect to the earth the more you can get grounded’

‘If you are using red light therapy you need to achieve a balance that optimises your sleep’

What's the best type of exercise, is there such a thing as too much exercise and does it enhance or lower immunity? Apr 02, 2020

Darryl Edwards is back for a second time with Angela, talking about the vital role of movement at a time whereas a result of COVID19 we are all staying at home. It’s easy to adopt a very sedentary lifestyle at this time but exercise and movement are beneficial on many levels – physical and psychological. It is also recognised that movement plays a role in effective support of immune function, so this is the time to get started and make sure movement and exercise are part of your daily routine.

As a movement coach and author of the best-selling book ‘Animal Moves’ Darryl has extensive knowledge and shares some great advice and practical tips on how to get started and create a varied movement routine that you love and will make the difference.

There has never been a more important time to get moving to stay healthy listen in and hear how you can get started now.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

There are a whole range of movement activities, limited only by your imagination, that you can do in your home.
It’s important to enjoy your lifestyle and exercise so having a range of opportunities for movement is key.
To maintain good health, it’s important to do a range of different movements, working like this will build endurance and resilience.
If you are significantly deconditioned anything you do when you begin to exercise will be high intensity for your body.
High-Intensity Interval Training increases bone and tissue strength making you more robust and resilient overall.
High-intensity exercise produces more killer cell counts than moderate-intensity exercise
Post HITT activity, the higher natural killer cell count means the body is more primed to find cells that are affected by viruses.
It’s important to be aware of how intensity can make you more immunologically healthy.
It’s about learning what you are capable of doing and making sure your movement program is varied and broad.
Whatever activities you choose to do you need to focus on completing exercise that encompasses the full spectrum of movement intensity.
The most powerful of movements are those three-dimensional movements that involve the transverse plane and having this type of work included in your routine is vital.
When you are learning a new movement pattern it significantly increases BDNF once you have control of a movement pattern you have much less BDNF so it’s important to try new things all the time.
Movement is not an easy choice in a sedentary society but now is a great time to get started.

BEST MOMENTS

‘The most mindful I can be is when I’m as focused as I can be’

‘People need to experience different movement patterns to understand why it’s so important for the brain and the body’

‘Dancing is important, it’s great for cognitive benefits and reduces cognitive decline - it’s therapeutically used with early-onset Alzheimer’s.

Functional Medicine - The Way Medicine Should Be - Interview with Sachin Patel, Founder of The Living Proof Institute Mar 27, 2020

‘The simple things you do make all the difference’

In this fascinating interview, Angela is in conversation with Sachin Patel founder of The Living Proof Institute – an online functional medicine practice bringing practitioners and patients together across the globe.

Sachin is also a specialist in teaching health care providers how to leverage their businesses successfully online and shares some great advice and links to access extensive expertise in this episode.

He originally trained as a chiropractor, with the philosophy that our innate potential intelligence is what causes the healing processes in our body and has taken this philosophy into functional medicine where he has been hugely successful in his mission to teach people health restoration and how to optimise with a multi-faceted approach to health and vitality.

There is someone thing for everyone in this inspiring podcast, listen in and make a change now.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Functional medicine is personalised healthcare that identifies and treats the root cause because sometimes the root cause can be very far removed from the symptoms.
Men and women are designed differently and there are a number of things that have to be individualised for them.
It’s patient empowered medicine where the practitioner and patient work together on the solution.
The philosophy is to teach you how to be healthy so you can teach your children and grandchildren how to be healthy.
Functional medicine is everything that people want and is the only healthcare that provides a complete solution.
Traditional medicine seeks to match the complexity of the human body but the greatest sign of sophistication is simplicity.
The body is very sophisticated so treatment of it can be very simplistic and be very effective.
The simpler your strategies the more you can leverage the principles of nature.
Every animal in the world lives in a rhythmic pattern with its circadian rhythm except humans, who are the sickest animals on the planet.
Sleep is the most powerful tool you have at your disposal along with the multiple dimensions of food.
We should be eating what feels right to us and our genetics. Food types and intake plays a huge role in our health as food interacts with our bodies, our genetics mean this is interaction is different for every individual.
You can never fix one system at a time you can only fix every system together.
To heal and use the resources you supply the body with effectively your body needs to be in a parasympathetic state.
The more parasympathetic you can get, the better you can do everything.
The mind is very important in your perspective and in influencing the outcomes you create
The human mind is the most important thing in the world, it’s not just about what you put into your mouth, but also what goes in through your ears and your eyes because this is what shapes your reality.
You are the creator of your own realities, so if you are stressed you create more stress to prove your mind right.
You are the ultimate creator of your own destiny and now is the time to do all the work you need to do, to remove all the excuses you have had and to leverage this opportunity to become the best versions of yourself.

BEST MOMENTS

‘When I explain functional medicine, people say isn’t that how medicine should be?’

It’s all about creating a generation of healthy people who are not dependant on the health service’

‘Our perception of reality is deterministic in whether we are going to be more parasympathetic or whether we are going to be sympathetic dominant, it’s all do with our mindset’

Embrace the Journey – with Jason Priest Mar 20, 2020

Today’s guest is Jason Priest, host and creator of the Dad Bod Pod.

Originally a registered nurse, Jason subsequently became a health and performance coach, and has since been busy transforming the lives of many entrepreneurs.

But the journey hasn’t always been a smooth one. In this episode, Jason talks to Angela about the sometimes rocky road that got him there, how his life philosophies and lessons learned have shaped the mentor that he has become, and methods he uses to deliver sustainable health results.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Jason grew up in a troubled home, and endured an uneven childhood. After seizing control of his life, Jason determined to turn his life around by going to nursing school.
At the age of 23, Jason began work in the ICU of a hospital, which had benefits and drawbacks. Emotionally, he was not as mature, and so was better able to deal with the things he experienced.
Seeing the effects of ill-health up close, Jason has since made it his mission to do all he can to help alleviate the obesity epidemic in America, and around the world.
When we become overweight, our health issues are compounded by the unhappiness we feel. This can make finding an effective strategy very difficult.
Because of society’s tendency towards instant gratification, many can feel discouraged when attempting to repair their health, and don’t find instant success. The benefits and gains always come in long-term wins.
Diets are a short term fix for a long term solution. Jason’s approach is through sustainable solutions that deliver a more realistic approach and outcome.
Keeping a gratitude journal can be a great stress-reliever. By focussing only on the positive things in our lives, we reduce our negativity, and add to our fulfilment.
There are so many strength exercises that can be performed throughout the day, even at home, from body-weight squats to wall-sits, that will give you and intense, invaluable workout with long lasting effects.
The more lean muscle mass you have, the more calories you burn at rest. When you add that mass to your frame, you’re not only giving yourself the ability to reach your goals more swiftly, but adding to your bone strength.
Jason’s programme to add positivity to your sleep is:
- Get to sleep at the same time every night
- Determine your day’s five wins, no matter how small they may seem
- Choose five people who made the biggest impact to your day
- When you wake up, pick five things you’re grateful for
Three meals a day, seven days a week, means that you have twenty-one weekly opportunities to do some good for your body.
In order to avoid self-sabotage, we need to embrace the journey and realise that the body doesn’t always behave the way that our mind expects

BEST MOMENTS

Enhancing Immunity Mar 13, 2020

Angela shares the best tips for enhancing immunity from flu and the coronavirus, offering advice that goes beyond the usual tips about effective hand washing. She explains the vital importance of lower oxidative stress on the body and the role-specific vitamins and minerals play in health optimisation.

This episode is about practical ways you and your family can enhance your immunity so if you are unlucky enough to be exposed to the coronavirus your body and its immune system will be functioning at an optimum level through a nutrient density diet.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Eat antioxidant foods to improve your antioxidant status - Look for brighter coloured fruits and vegetables as these are high in antioxidants.
Ensure you have adequate vitamin D levels - It plays a key role in supporting the correct balance of the immune system. To optimise vitamin D levels, you need to expose yourself to sufficient sunlight or use a supplement.
Make sure you are getting enough zinc - This is important for immunity and is required for the function of over 300 enzymes and more than a 1000 transcription factors( the proteins that regulate our gene function).
Take high dose vitamin C - In an infection, the reserves of vitamin C are used up very quickly so taking large doses when the symptoms appear can ensure vitamin C levels are maintained.
Sustain the correct level of selenium through diet – Eating around 4 brazil nuts each day will meet your daily needs.
Make sure you get enough nitric oxide – this is a key signalling molecule between cells and can help to fight against some infections. Include foods such as leafy greens, which can help enhance nitrite oxide production.
Lactoferrins have been shown to protect against viral infections - Buy lactoferrins supplements in a base of colostrum, also key in enhancing gut health.
Make sure you are getting enough collagen – it is an essential building block in immune function. Collagen is an easy supplement to take and can easily be added to drinks as its odourless and tasteless
Mushrooms – certain types of medicinal mushrooms have been shown to enhance immunity stimulating the production of macrophages.
Use immune boosters in the form of raw honey and bee pollen - Honey is an effective treatment for coughs and bee pollen is considered to be one of the most nutrient-dense foods in nature.
Include organ meats, teas, allium vegetables in your diet – these foods will all aid the body’s immune system.
Look after your gut health to increase your immune system - ¾ of your immune system resides in your gut so looking after your gut health is key to overall health.

BEST MOMENTS

‘Limit the amount of oxidative stress your body is under and enhance your immune system by not smoking, limiting alcohol consumption and avoiding highly processed foods’

‘It is difficult to get enough vitamin D from diet alone’

‘If you experience flu or coronavirus zinc would be one of the first supplements to begin taking’

Red Light Roundup Mar 06, 2020

In response to 2 recent episodes that have been extremely popular Angela is bringing together the information from her guests Dr Amy Killen and CEO of Red Light Rising James Strong about the benefits of red light and near red light therapy

She discusses the effects of red light therapy on skin health and hair growth and the profound impact red light therapy has on cellulite – estimated to affect 90% of women.

This is an informative episode that brings together pertinent information about both the benefits and the most effective protocol to put in place for red light therapy at home.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Skin

Red light therapy causes the mitochondria in your cells to be able to make more ATP
It benefits your hair and skin and can be part of your routine at home
It will improve the texture, tone and brightness of your skin over time.
Red light and near red light therapy helps to build the mitochondria in our cells which can then produce more energy, decrease inflammation, help to build the cell defences and increase resilience.
Red light therapy is a non-invasive and effective way to rejuvenate the skin and help slow the process of ageing.
It stimulates both collagen and elastin production and reduces the appearance of fine lines, scarring and veins.
Red light therapy has been shown to lessen the signs of damage to the skin including sun damage and that of UV light, reduces wrinkles and enhances the production of collagen

Using red light to enhance skin health

When you are standing in front of the light and have full body coverage a treatment time of 15 minutes is the optimum time to enhance skin health.
The farther away you are (50 to 100cm) the longer the treatment time required.
Consistency is very important you should use the light a minimum of 3 times a week with the optimum being 5 to 6 times a week for 15 minutes
The red light encourages nutrient delivery to the area where the light is shining
Using a derma roller and red light together is a positive and effective protocol to have in place.

Cellulite

Red light therapy has been shown to have a profound effect on cellulite
Red light therapy combats cellulite in 3 different ways:
Bolsters the production of collagen and elastin and support the fibrous support network that surrounds the cells.
Improves blood circulation and blood vessel health in the area
Causes fat cells to release their fat into the blood which can then be burnt off.

Hair growth

Red light can be used to enhance hair growth and has also been shown to help with the regrowth of hair.
Red light therapy helps hair stay in the growth phase.
The more direct the light to your head the better.
It enhances energy within the hair cells and it prolongs hair life cycles, it promotes your hair to grow more quickly.
For hair, there have been several studies that show red light therapy is effective in slowing hair loss and promoting hair growth.
The red light needs to be able to get to the scalp to make a difference.
Using it consistently is the key to achieving the optimum results.

BEST MOMENTS

‘I do a meditation with the red light on my face – it’s one of my favourite things’

‘It’s upsetting for women when they lose their hair’

‘Within days you will notice the difference in your skin and in 2 weeks you will see younger-looking skin’

‘Putting vitamin treatments onto the skin prior to the red light therapy will enhance further the positive effects’

How to Optimise Sleep and Find the Right Rhythm for You Feb 21, 2020

‘If you are relaxed and ready for sleep you are increasing your chances of effective sleep’

Angela is with Dr Greg Potter PhD who is a specialist in sleep and nutrition optimisation.

He is passionate about finding solutions for those experience sleep fragmentation and sleep deprivation and in this fascinating episode packed with useful content explains how sleep patterns are established and the factors that impact on the type and duration of sleep individuals achieve.

They discuss in detail the importance of a good pre-sleep routine and understanding whether you are a night owl or early bird, listen in and learn.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Most people understand that it’s important to be exposed to high-intensity light during the day and that regular exercise impacts on how quickly you fall asleep.
A sleep diary can be an effective way of tracking sleep patterns to identify issues and bedtime restriction therapy can be used to improve sleep efficiency.
In a healthy person cortisol peaks in the day and declines in preparation for sleep.
It’s vital to have a good pre-sleep routine and undertake activities that help quieten the mind.
Before you wake there should be a spike in cortisol, it is part of a rhythmic process that is preparing your body to be able to cope with the activities of the day
People who are not in optimal health experience lower amounts of cortisol in preparation for the day and a higher level at night-time which impacts on sleep.
If you are an A-type personality research has shown making a detailed ‘to do’ list in preparation for the next day can aid restful sleep.
Different chronotypes such as night owls and early birds respond in different ways to the stimulus that impact on circadian rhythms.
If a couple are differing types, and it is extreme, a sleep divorce – where you sleep in a different bed to your partner may be the solution.
It’s vital to look for a solution that is manageable for both partners as sleep deprivation and disrupted sleep have a huge impact on people’s daily lives
There is not a one size fits all for sleep duration and it changes during your life span.
The amount you need, as an individual change, continually but when you extend and improve your sleep then you will improve cognitive function.
When co-ordinating sleep timing its vital to understand the different timing constructs.
The social clock -the timing of the day
The environmental clock – the earth about its axis
The biological clocks – that bring the changes to rhythms in our biology
People differ in the timing of these clocks and this manifests itself as differences in chronotype.
During the biological night time, your body is synthesising melatonin during daytime the amount of melatonin produced is almost zero and you are ready for activity.

BEST MOMENTS

‘Adolescents naturally shift to a later wake time and research has shown that later school start times would have a huge and positive impact not only on adolescents but on wider society’

‘Physical activity is a key driver for anyone wanting to achieve optimum sleep’

‘You can’t oversleep you can only sleep as much as you need’

How to Get the Maximum Benefits From Red Light – Interview with James Strong, CEO of Red Light Rising Feb 14, 2020

Angela is with James Strong, CEO of Red Light Rising a company that manufactures red lights. Red light therapy has been extensively studied and the benefits are well documented with the use of red-light therapy continuing to gain in popularity as its benefits are communicated more widely.

James and Angela discuss how red light and near red light works on our bodies at a cellular level and the extensive benefits of consistently using a red light as a part of your regular routine to aid your body.

Angela, who uses a red light as part of her daily routine explores with James how to maximise the positive impact of red light and the different ways you can and should use a red light to enhance your day to day energy levels and support your body’s recovery protocol. This is a fascinating episode listen in and find out more.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The lights are all focused on 2 particular wavelengths - 660 and 850 nanometres - these are the wavelengths proven to stimulate the most mitochondrial
The red light penetrates around 1.5cm into your skin and the near-infrared penetrates around 5 cm into your body allowing your muscles and organs to benefit.
Red light therapy has been extensively studied and the benefits are well documented.
If you are trying to establish your circadian rhythm then using the light at sunrise and sunset is preferable as it will increase your circadian marker.
Using a red light in the environment around your computer will compensate for the blue light of the device.
For skin health consistent sessions will promote collagen synthesis and encourages blood flow bringing nutrient delivery – the skin will rejuvenate more quickly.
There are benefits for hair as the light enhances the energy around the scalp prolonging the life of individual hairs and promotes the growth of more hair follicles resulting in thicker hair and more hair on the scalp.
Red light can enhance testosterone production if used consistently and for females there are enhanced benefits for fertility.
Sleep – latency and deep sleep can be improved through the use of red light and good light hygiene.
The enhanced cellular energy and collagen synthesis fibroblast formation as a result of red-light usage enhance the body recovery protocol.
It’s easy to train hard one day, it’s about being able to recover to be able to train hard the next day and consistent use of red light can make the difference in recovery and maintaining a training schedule successfully.

BEST MOMENTS

‘It’s a great mechanism to promote hair growth’

‘A near-infrared light is where the magic happens’

‘With red light you are enhancing ATP production, giving your muscles more energy’

‘Using the red light with a derma roller will result in less inflammation’

Is The Keto Diet Right For You? Feb 07, 2020

The keto diet can be a great way to gain focus improve performance and lose weight but how can you tell if its right for you?

Angela explores in depth the ketogenic diet, it can boost mental and physical energy but for some, the keto diet may not be suitable and in this episode, Angela shares her expertise and knowledge to help anyone look at whether it’s the right diet for them.

There are those who seem to be able to eat whatever they want and those who only have to look at a cookie and put the weight on - it’s all about genetics so checking your DNA is key in understanding who you are and what diet is going to work for you. Listen in and hear about who a ketogenic diet is suitable for and why in this fascinating and informative episode.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The ketogenic diet can be very successful for many but there will be some people it might not suitable for due to the differences in the ways we process carbohydrates and fats.
The perfect diet comes down to your genetics, gut health, metabolic demands and your lifestyle.
Knowing about key parts of your DNA is vital when you are looking for the best diet for you -
there is no one size that fits all.
DNA is contained in every cell of our bodies and is ‘like an instruction manual’ for the body to produce proteins.
Everything our body does is coded for by our genes and we all have slight variations in the code.
You may metabolise something slightly differently from the next person
There are also genes that are implicated in the way your body processes carbohydrates and your risk for metabolic diseases such as diabetes and if you are at a higher risk for these a ketogenic diet maybe a good option.
You can find the type of diet that’s right for you by looking at your genetics – this will give you your sensitivity to fats, saturated fats, carbohydrates and a host of other information
Doing the keto diet the right way - Often people get the keto flu, which typically starts 24-48 hours into the diet. As your body shifts into metabolising glucose to fatty acids, your insulin levels start to drop.
When your glucose drops it is a signal to your kidneys to flush out toxins and you can lose significant water weight very rapidly.
When focusing on a diet that is low in carbohydrate and high in fat individuals can often also exclude vegetables for their diet and not benefit from the fibres and vitamins they contain.
Make sure you are consuming plenty of vegetables
Most vegetables are keto-friendly, especially cruciferous vegetables and microgreens that are low on the glycemic register
Make sure you are getting the right balance of minerals including sodium, magnesium, and potassium
Any electrolyte deficiency must be addressed as it can result in long term damage
When you start the keto diet your cortisol levels will be higher and a lighter exercise regime along with sleep hygiene will help to keep cortisol levels lower
When you are sleeping you release leptin and this helps burn fat while in sleep it also helps stabilise your appetite the next day and with adaption to a higher fat-based diet.
Ketones are molecules your body produces when you are in fat-burning mode
The goal of the ketogenic diet is to get the body to produce the ketones for itself
When you are on a keto diet you will be burning more fat for fuel

BEST MOMENTS

‘I’m a firm believer that your genes are not your destiny’

‘If you do have the FTO gene (the fatso gene) do not despair, it’s all about the expression of those genes’

‘As you are releasing your body fat during the keto diet, you are releasing toxins stored in the fat back into your body, to help counteract this you can take activated charcoal to help your body’

Optimising Sexual Performance And How to Look and Feel Your Best with Dr Amy Killen, Specialist in Anti-aging and Regenerative Medicine Jan 31, 2020

In this fascinating episode, Angela’s guest is Dr Amy Killen an anti-ageing and regenerative physician specializing in sexual optimization, aesthetics and integrative medicine.

Amy shares a variety of the best approaches and explains how and why each strategy is important in treating or maintaining healthy skin, hair and sexual vitality.

The tools and therapies used for skin and sex are very similar – stem cells, light therapy and PRP are all used in a range of different ways to keep skin and hair healthy and maintain sexual vitality.

This is a great opportunity - to not only hear about effective maintenance strategies, and treatments but also to hear about how and why they work.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Sexual health and vitality
Mind your mind – for all of us our biggest sex organ is our brain and being in the right mindset is vital so that you are ready to have sex. We are designed to have sex when we are relaxed and not stressed.
Keep healthy - You need good blood flow and cardiovascular health
Nitric oxide - Increase and maintain your nitric oxide levels. We all make nitric oxide and it facilitates the widening of blood vessels. Your body is also able to convert the nitrate you take in through food into nitric oxide
Optimise your hormones - Levels of hormones drop with ageing, keep hormones at an optimal level
PRP - Use therapies such as the ‘O’ (orgasm) shot and the ‘P’ (Priapus) shot which is traditionally administered using PRP
Shockwave therapy - treatments for both men and women that involve red light therapy and sound wave therapy can help restore sexual health.
Skin and Hair
The tools used for skin and sex are very similar – stem cells, light therapy and PRP
Women increasingly lose their hair and red-light therapy can be a really effective treatment.
Red light therapy increases ATP production in your mitochondria.
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is great for skin, hair and sexual function and can be used in a variety of ways to keep skin and hair healthy.
From the age of 25 onwards your body begins to make less collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid.
Collagen gives skin water retaining abilities
Elastin gives the bounce back
Hyaluronic acid – helps your skin to retain water
The sun remains the number one cause of ageing. It's vital that you use a sun block every day.
Sugar is one of the worst things you can do for your skin, hair and sexual health, It gets in and breaks down the structure of your skin, as you get older you are making less and breaking down more.
Avoiding sugar, using sun block, being healthy in body and mind along with completion of a maintenance routine are the steps anyone can take to age more slowly.

BEST MOMENTS

‘It’s a circus for your vagina’

‘Causing a small amount of microtrauma, done in a safe way can be helpful in keeping your skin in continual regeneration phase’

‘As you age the bones in your face change and the fat pads move exercise is not going to change this, it’s part of ageing.

Fitness Hacks and Movement Snacks – with Darryl Edwards Jan 24, 2020

This week, Angela is in conversation with Darryl Edwards, otherwise known as The Fitness Explorer, the founder of Primal Play, a company founded on the mission to “change lives through play”, and the bestselling author of ‘Animal Moves’

This is a fascinating episode in which Darryl shares some incredible advice designed to get your metabolism flowing, and to keep you fit, without the pressure on, and reliance of, regular exercise sessions. Darryl’s entire approach is about keeping you moving throughout the day, and it all begins with a concept called “Movement Snacks”...

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Exercise is a modern construct developed to supplement the lack of physical activity in our day-to-day lives. Exercise has become a far more important way, to modern humans, to achieve the sense of locomotion and physical activity we need in a given timeframe.
Even if you are exercising for around sixty minutes per day, if you’re sitting for multiple hours, this can undermine any of the effects of your physical activity.
Darryl calls his prompts for movement, “movement snacks”; small ways in which we can force ourselves to move more, and by doing so, create a constant impetus to abstain from being sedentary. Some of the best and most simple ways of doing this are:

Drink more water. This can force you to take more toilet breaks. And use a toilet on a different floor.
When you’re on the phone, make sure you’re not sat down.
Instead of meetings at a table, why not walk and talk?
Walk to work if you can do so

We are constantly told to avoid foods that cause spikes in insulin, but nature has given us another way of managing this: physical activity, which causes muscle contraction.
When you are hungry, your body will force you to eat. When you are tired, your body will force you to sleep. But nothing will force you to exercise. By exercising, we are becoming far more proactive than we sometimes realise.
Feel-good hormones are generally associated with physical activity. This is why exercise is so often recommended as a way to combat depression.
The word “exercise” itself, and even the phrases associated with it, such as “no pain no gain”, carry with them negative, painful connotations. This is partly the reason why so many are instantly, psychologically switched off when it comes to exercise.
75% of UK children have less time out side than prison inmates. 1 in 7 UK children have never spent time in an outdoor space. Lethargic activity, such as technology-based interactions are driving a surge in health problems in the next generations, and needs to be addressed.
Adult play, the gamification of exercise for adults seeking to keep active, is difficult to maintain. To keep it going, Darryl recommends:
Download Darryl’s free eBook ‘On The Importance Of Play’ (available on the Primal Play website)
By becoming more playful, you will automatically think of more ideas for movement
Engage with the activities created by Darryl on Primal Play, which will help you to engage your creativity
When engaging in social activity, your effort is naturally increased, but also your endorphins are greatly increased by engaging in physical activity with someone else, especially when it’s rhythmic.

BEST MOMENTS

‘2000 years ago there was no need to exercise’

‘It’s about integrating your day with movement’

‘I wanted to know why. What does it do at a biological level; at a physiological level?’

‘Movement is medicine’

’The process is what’s important, not the outcome’

’There are so many obstacles in the younger generation’s way’

‘Endorphins are released immediately with play; not at the end’

Inflammation - The Silent Killer - What is It and What’s Causing It? Jan 17, 2020

‘It’s empowering to understand your DNA and how your body works’

Our environment, lifestyle and nutrition are playing a major part in the rapid advancement of chronic diseases and in this episode, Angela explains the impact Nutrition, Stress and Sleep have on inflammation and shares the ways you can make positive changes.

If you are living life at 5 out of 10 most days and wonder why you are always tired and have low energy levels it may be because you are suffering from chronic inflammation. When you lower inflammation you lower your risk, improve your energy and make your body easier to maintain.

There are lots of things you can do to protect yourself and improve your health, we are entering a new age of personalised health and that means you can track your own personalised journey back to health. It’s going to become increasingly affordable to take charge of your life so this is a wonderful time to be alive, take charge and influence your health and well-being.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

We are now seeing the rapid increase of chronic diseases and our lifestyle, diet and environment are largely responsible for this.
Acute inflammation happens in the body to heal you.
When you lower inflammation you lower your risk and can improve your energy and have an easier body to maintain.
Nutrition, Stress and Sleep all impact on inflammation.

Nutrition

It’s important to look at a variety of factors.
If you are having too much processed food and sugar then you will be driving up inflammation.
Fats become incorporated into your cell membrane so taking in processed fats will result in them becoming part of your cell membranes.
You can now personalise your nutrition. If you do a DNA test you can find out what sort of fats and carbohydrates your body can tolerate.
Once you know your baseline you can layer in the nutrition you require and get exactly what’s right for you.
Latest research makes the connection between our circadian rhythm and our organs.
We have clock genes that regulate our circadian rhythm and our organs take cues from these clock genes.
If we align our eating with our circadian rhythm we can lower inflammation and sleep much better.

Stress

Acute stress is when cortisol is released in response to a specific situation.
Chronic stress results in continual releases of cortisol and raises inflammation.
We can suffer from both physical and biological stress.
There are simple things you can do in your everyday life to lower the factors that cause inflammation.

Sleep

Sleeping well will lower levels of inflammation.
The quality of your sleep tonight has begun to be determined from the moment you woke up this morning.
Eating at the right time and within a 12-hour window can massively impact on the quality of sleep.
Optimise your lifestyle around having good sleep patterns.

BEST MOMENTS

‘Go out and get lots of blue light first thing in the morning and making sure you have opportunities to be outside barefoot will help with better sleep’

‘We now know 90-95% of disease is not caused by genetics alone and we have an amazing area of epigenetics where we can begin to express the influence of our genes in a powerful way’

How To Put Ourselves Into the 8% of People Who Achieve Their New Year’s Resolutions – with Colin Hiles Jan 10, 2020

It’s a new year and a new decade, and resolutions are being made everywhere by those who want to see some improvements in their health and wellbeing. But sometimes those resolutions don’t stick. In fact, 92% of resolutions fail, but what is the best way to make sure those plans don’t slip, and that we stick to our health goals for the year?

In this episode, Angela talks to Colin Hiles, one of the top mind-set coaches on the planet, who over the last twenty-three years has coached thousands of people to achieve their optimal state of mind, and how to get the best out of themselves and gain mental toughness.

Colin and Angels discuss the art of goal-setting, the seven forces of influence that you need to master, how to use Colin’s Bullseye method and much more.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

When we are trying to visualise the things we can do using our mind, it causes us to reconsider our limitations, and often push ourselves that much further.
We often make promises to ourselves in terms of goal-setting, but we are also often guilty of breaking those promises in search of quick-fixes. It’s about learning about the small hinges that swing the big doors that make real change.
The seven forces of influence you need to master are:

M - Motivation
A - Action
S - Skills
T - Tribe
E - Example
R - Rewards/Consequences
S - Space

If you want to break through to a new level of income, you really need to associate more with people who are already there. Mind-set is contagious. By choosing your “tribe” carefully, you’ll absorb other more beneficial mind-sets.
We’re not aware of so much that we’re doing in our day-to-day lives. We are constantly being triggered by the environment and are often not consciously aware that this is so.
In the business world deadlines are everywhere and are a main driving factor of productivity. In our personal lives, we tend not set deadlines, but they can be a hugely effective tool, no matter how small, in driving our personal development.
The subconscious thinks in images, not words. When we visualise our goals, we are letting our brains know, in a far more effective way, that this is the result we hope to attain. Visualisation is extraordinarily powerful.
Finding our “why” is crucial to achieving our goals. Colin identifies “need”, “me” and “we” as the three types of goals most typical.

Need - “I need to lose weight for a wedding”
Me - “Achieving this goal will make me feel proud”
We - The unstoppable goals that affect the greater good

Colin’s Big Four:

Health - Mind, body and spirit
Wealth - Career and the ways in which wealth is created
Love - Relationships
Lifestyle - How wealth is spent in the time we have

We must endeavour to think from our goals, instead of thinking of our goals. Put yourself there and imagine what it’s like to have achieved it already. Replicate the feeling of having achieved it already. Think in images.

BEST MOMENTS

’New year is a time of year when people across the globe reflect on their achievements to date and look ahead to the coming year’

‘What is the difference that makes a difference?’

‘We pay attention to our children but what about us?’

‘How many times did you put your foot on the brake?’

‘Deadlines create urgency’

’That’s the power of visualisation’

‘Children are our best teachers’

‘Health is so hard to get back’

‘You want a four way win’

Top Tips To Help You Minimise The Effects Of Yuletide Overindulgence Dec 27, 2019

Christmas is upon us, and it’s that time of the year where we all go a little wild, let our hair down, and indulge ourselves. In this week’s show, Angela shares her top tips for ensuring that you don’t suffer too greatly beneath the weight of hangovers or over-eating, as well as looking at what causes these conditions.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Hangovers are caused by the effects of alcohol on the brain. There are three main types but ethanol is the only one fit for human consumption. Alcohol inflames and damages the neurons in our brains.
If you are someone who goes a little red-faced after drinking, then you are more likely to suffer from facial flushing, and are far likelier to suffer from increased hangovers.
Hangovers and the resulting headaches are more than likely caused by the damage caused by the inflammation and oxidative stress suffered by the brain.
The best way to avoid hangovers, if you must drink, is to drink in moderation. The rule to follow is that roughly one gram of alcohol per one kilo of weight, is enough to produce a hangover in a person. Water will help with the dehydration symptoms, but it will not help with the toxic effects.
A 12-hour fasting session overnight can help to heal overeating or over-drinking. Fasting can help to renew the gut lining. The key is to avoid overeating and drinking late into the evening.
Probiotic-rich yoghurt first thing in the morning can help with ill effects. Also sauerkraut or kombucha can help, providing you are not on a low-histamine diet. Other good foods are cruciferous vegetables and milk thistle extract.

BEST MOMENTS

‘If you want a high performing brain then drinking lots of alcohol is not a good idea’

‘1 gram of alcohol per 1 kilo of weight is enough to produce hangovers in most people’

‘Growth hormone is great for skin health’

‘Moderation is key'

Upgrading And Optimising Your Life – with Keith Norris of Paleo f(x) Dec 20, 2019

Angela talks to Keith Norris, the co-founder and Chief Development Officer of Paleo f(x), the largest Paleo platform in the world, and whose mission is to optimise health and lifestyle.

Keith’s determination to radicalise health and diet stems from both his military experiences and a personal tragedy that shaped his outlook on life. In this very special edition of High Performance Health, Keith talks about his Seven Pillars Of Human Optimisation system, how to enhance your epigenetic expression, as well as how to use exercise as a gateway to your subconscious.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Three days before her twenty-third birthday, Keith’s daughter was killed in a car accident. This devastated Keith and his family, and forced them to re-evaluate their lives, including their career paths.
Everyone in the family came to the realisation that they were unhappy with the path they were on. To people on the outside looking in, they represented the ideal of the American Dream. But inside they knew that their missions lay elsewhere. It was this impetus to grow and evolve that led to the founding of Paleo f(x).
Keith does not count himself as a great businessman, but he does see himself as a great networker. He finds getting to know people, and getting the best out of people, to be his greatest skills.
Partnerships are never 50/50. There are times when they are 99/1, and fluctuate throughout the year. Partnerships are all about stepping up when you can and supporting the other when it's needed.
Keith’s Seven Pillars Of Health are:
- Emotional Health
- Mental Health
- Physical Health
- Relational Health
- Financial Health
- Spiritual Health
- Community
Physical health is often built upon data, which is useful, but Keith believes in listening to the needs of his own body by checking in internally. Data can be useful, but it can also become a crutch.
What does your body need to survive? Firstly is movement; move whenever possible and move consistently. Secondly, diet; Paleo is Keith’s choice as it is easy to follow and the most effective.
Multi-generational households are sadly missing in much of the world now. Elderly people have much to give, and are an invaluable source of wisdom, and when they are kept as an active part of communities, they can help to nurture successive generations.

BEST MOMENTS

‘We were caught in the American dream, which is based solely on how big your house is, and which car you drive’

‘In our culture, to succeed is to have material excess’

‘We’re natural networkers’

‘Life is very rarely set at 50/50. It’s constantly shifting, and as long as you realise that, no one’s feelings get hurt’

‘My competition now is life’

‘We want to help the most people that we can’

‘You are part of a larger whole'

Breakthrough Limits - From Wheelchair Bound To Winning 7 Hollywood Awards with Anna Parker-Naples Dec 16, 2019

Anna Parker Naples is a Bestselling author, host of top iTunes podcast Entrepreneurs Get Visible, Speaker and Coach, is a successful and award-winning narrator of audiobooks and is the host of the ‘Entrepreneurs Get Visible’ podcast.

She has just published her first book ‘Get Visible’ and shares how the power of mindset has brought her everything she wanted.

Anna began as an actor primarily on the stage but everything changed when after suffering from a condition during pregnancy she was told to not expect to walk again but within

A few years she had not only recovered but was on the red carpet winning or nominated as a finalist for many awards in Hollywood as an outstanding performer.

This transformation came through the power of mindset and Anna now works helping people with personal development within a professional capacity, showing them how they think about themselves and their abilities is what makes the difference as to whether they achieve what they want in life.

It’s about putting yourself out there and making the decision that the things you want are important to you, listen in and find out more.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

I saw a hypnotherapist and we undertook a session of NLP - Neuro-linguistic programming.
Bit by bit we unravelled everything I said and I agreed to change the language I was using, how I was talking about myself and what was happening
It’s a very different experience saying a healing sentence rather than a sentence about pain
You are not alone in having self-limiting thoughts it’s really common but those thoughts aren’t true. It’s just that you’ve been thinking them on repeat for many, many years.
Those neuro pathways in your brain are really entrenched.
We are always generalising, deleting and distorting information to fit our own world view.
If you believe you can’t then you will find information to support that you can’t.
If you think you can and choose the words and language to support this then you can.
The real power of NLP, hypnosis, and timeline work is to get past the inner critic.
If you don’t know what you are saying about yourself how can you change?
If you are saying I’m good at this and I’m open to learning then this becomes your experience.
New thoughts build new neural pathways.
It’s doing the work to discover the events or moment where you decided it was true and looking at the different decisions you could have made.
In our casual speech, we denigrate ourselves over and over and that impacts our lives in a massive way.
Getting to the point of understanding, when you began to think in this way, enables you to change your self-limiting belief for something positive.

BEST MOMENTS

‘In that conversation, I started to take responsibility for how I felt’

‘Not only did I recover physically but I uncovered so much about myself’

‘Within a short space of time, I started to feel better and more optimistic’

‘This is why witnesses to the same event all report seeing something different, we all process the world in different ways’

Your Guide to CBD, What's the difference between hemp oil and CBD? What is it used for? Is it addictive and what to look for in a CBD product Dec 06, 2019

Cannabidiol, or CBD, has been used for centuries for therapeutic and medicinal purposes, as history tells, but why is it gaining such popularity (and notoriety) lately?

Though its calming, pain-reducing, and anti-inflammatory effects are already scientifically proven, there are still a lot of things to know about CBD. It comes in a lot of forms, shapes, and sizes… and it differs from one person to another. So, in this episode of the High-Performance Health Podcast, we hear Angela discuss everything we need to know about it—the pros and cons, its regulation (around the world), and its forms. Tune in. And remember to always consult a medical professional before taking any supplements.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The first cannabinoid was first discovered in the mid-1960s. CBD is just one out of many cannabinoids existing right now. For example, THC, or tetrahydrocannabinol, is the chemical compound that brings you the ‘high’ when you take marijuana—CBD does not give you THAT sensation. CBD, instead, has calming and anti-psychotic properties.
What is the difference between hemp and cannabis? Hemp refers to the non-psychoactive variety while cannabis refers to the psychoactive variety.
How does CBD work? It interacts with different receptors, proteins and chemicals which affects different bodily functions.
What are the benefits?
- CBD has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. It helps protect you from any brain damage. Aside from this, it also offers pain reduction/relief better than opium or morphine.
- CBD also helps reduce anxiety and stress levels. It also prevents insomnia and REM behaviour disorder, thus improving your sleep cycle.
- It is also seen to cure neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s or multiple sclerosis.
- CBD also boosts metabolism, lowers liver fats, and lowers blood cholesterol.
Always consult your doctor before taking any supplement. It might interact badly with your other medicine and supplements. They come in many forms too—oil, capsules, intra-nasal, etc.
Also, take note that taking CBD might have some side effects like sluggishness, light-headedness, low blood pressure, etc.

BEST MOMENTS

“It looks like a promising treatment for a wide range of conditions like depression, and other neurological disorders.”
“Hemp does not contain enough THC to get you high.”

How to Optimise Your Light, Enhance Your Circadian Rhythm & Optimise Mitochondrial Health with Matt Maruca Nov 22, 2019

Angela is in conversation with Matt Maruca Founder of Ra Optics and expert in the field of photobiology. When he was younger he struggled with many debilitating issues and in a quest to understand how to fix himself he began to research mitochondria and the vital role they play in processing food and making energy controlled by light.

They discuss the circadian rhythm and how we are impacting on it through the structure of the average day and our exposure, or lack of it to the sun.

We are beginning to understand more about how light and circadian rhythms affect and drive the vital processes of every human body. In understanding the function of natural light for our bodies it is possible to understand the changes that need to be made to bring back balance and repair the mechanisms within the body.

This fascinating episode will help anyone understand better the importance of both your inner light and sunlight on your level of health.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

We are all just a collection of cells. The water in our cells is structured in a certain way and infrared light plays a role in this structuring.
The sun and fire are the most obvious sources of light in our world.
Where ever you are located in the world you can bio-hack it and try to do as much work as possible away from the office and in the light from the sun.
Get as much time outdoors during the day as possible even if it is cloudy it will be beneficial to your mood.
You can’t mimic the sun; it has a complete spectrum and powers many processes for our bodies so it’s vital to get outside.
Human migration away from the tropics can be a big issue if the body is not able to adapt to differing hours of sunlight but making use of fire, saunas and red panel lights can help people.
We are living in an age of massive circadian disruption because artificial light late at night is delaying the secretion of melatonin, this, in turn, delays circadian phase shifts.
We are now missing the key hours of morning light exposure which drive so many of our life processes.
Implementing an early morning meditation can be beneficial and between 3 and 5 am is the ideal time.
We all have some level of light in our bodies and we can channel it effectively to help mend other areas.
The human brain is unique because it requires so much DHA ,it is this that makes our brains so much more advanced than other animals.
The ultimate difference between the light diet and other diets is that most diets are focused on addressing the fuel that we need for our cellular engines. People are trying to make fixes through a premium diet but the mechanism that requires repair in humans is light and our circadian rhythm
We need to use light to fix the mitochondria and the respiratory proteins, once we live back in accordance with our circadian rhythms we will have fixed the mechanism.
Optimise your health;
Embrace the benefits of the sun - do this in stages building up your exposure.
Avoid artificial light - especially blue light by wearing blue-blocking glasses.
Focus on the inner light - cultivate your inner light through the right relationships, the right meditation and the right tribe.
Stay curious about yourself and everything in the world.

BEST MOMENTS

‘We can strengthen our bodies in the ocean and in the sun’

‘When your inner light goes you are no longer able to see the light outside’

‘I don’t eat meals or food after 5 pm if I haven’t eaten by that time I just fast and this means I can sleep well’

‘Cooling of our surfaces does allow our bodies to assimilate light better’

‘Everywhere on earth has the same amount of light it’s just the distribution that differs’

Fats - The Good, The Bad & The Ugly Nov 15, 2019

In this solo-sode on healthy fats, Angela explains in depth why the fats in our diets are so important.

People can get quite confused about, which fats are healthy and which are not

and what proportion of fats we should be consuming as part of our diets.

in terms of proportion, there is no one size that fits all and it’s different for everyone

because everyone processes saturated fats slightly differently

What are the types of fats should you be including in your diet and what are the healthy sources that can really optimise the health of your cell membranes? Listen in to understand exactly what you should be eating to achieve the optimum balance of healthy fats in the right proportion for you.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

There has been a persistent myth that eating fat makes you fat but this is the result of a deeply flawed report published in the 1950s where the data was cherry-picked to suit a hypothesis.
Fat is a very good way of making food taste good and if you take it out you have to replace it with something else to make it taste good resulting in higher sugar consumption.
The food that nature gives us it doesn’t often provide sweetness coupled with fats
The combination of the fat with the sugar is pretty irresistible to humans and makes it very appetising.
Your body cannot make its cells without dietary fats we have trillions of cells in our bodies and each cell has an outer membrane which is produced from fats. You really are what you because the fats that you eat become the outer membrane of your cells
There are many advantages to having a predominately fat-burning metabolism it helps to make the body more efficient, stabilises blood sugar and insulin levels it can effectively starve cancer cells, as we know for the most part cancer cells thrive on glucose
Focus on the sources of the foods you are eating to help build really good quality cell membranes
Proper dietary fats help to make those membranes more fluid and more efficient in their communication
We need to make sure that we have the right fatty acid intake this is really important for optimal health.
There is a category of fats that we all need these are known as essential fats they are classed as essential because our bodies cannot make them
We have to acquire them from the foods we eat.
Fats are a crucial part of the proper functioning of our heart, brain and nervous system they are also vital for absorbing certain vitamins that are fat-soluble so it’s vital that they are part of our diet.

BEST MOMENTS

‘We are not designed to run on sugar as a primary fuel’

‘The unhealthy omega 6 fats come from foods such as junk foods in our diet. These fats have become damaged through exposure to heat and they provide no benefit what so ever

“If people are highly stressed there can be a build-up of fats resulting in higher levels of inflammation’

Zestful Biohacking – with Tony Wrighton Nov 08, 2019

Tony Wrighton is one of television’s more familiar faces, having presented numerous shows for such channels as Sky Sports. He’s also an expert in NLP, and an author who’s been published in twelve languages.

Tony is also a fierce proponent of the idea that everyone should live their life with more energy, vitality, and motivation. This week, Tony joins Angela to talk about his most valuable health hacks, how to increase your energy levels, and the various tracking techniques he uses to map out his health agenda.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

NLP stands for Neuro-Linguistic Programming, a term coined in the 1970s, and which Tony describes as "neuro-hacking"; a process of making your brain work better. NLP has many uses in advertising, psychology and teaching. It allows us to get things done that we may not feel inclined to do.
Effective tracking of mood, energy levels and diet, can show us the best times in our lives to perform certain tasks. Tony uses a spreadsheet to map his schedule, and then to identify the way he feels at those times.
Meditation done properly seems to create time between thoughts. It allows us to reduce the speed of our day, and by doing so, allows us to see that we often have more time in a day than we think.
As well as mimicking the effects of fasting, Resveratrol also has been shown to reverse some of the effects of Alzheimer’s.
One of the simplest hacks that Tony performs in order to provide himself with higher energy levels, is to arrange something fun. The sense of excitement and anticipation adds an energy level that even Tony finds sometimes surprising.
Angela recommends beginning your day at least half an hour before schedule. By allowing yourself breathing room, you remove that morning rush that inevitably leads to fatigue and irritability later on.

BEST MOMENTS

‘On a good day, what do we do? On a bad day, what do we do?’

‘You mustn’t be the bouncer of your thoughts’

‘I feel like a world authority on histamine right now’

‘What’s in motion stays in motion’

‘Live consciously'

Solosode; How does Caffeine Affect Your Sleep Nov 01, 2019

‘I’ve learnt to prioritise my sleep and my health and performance is so much more enhanced’

Angela has been asked recently about how to improve sleep and specifically the effect of caffeine on sleep. In this episode, she explores the impact of caffeine on the body and the ways it can affect sleep and performance.

Angela shares in detail how the body processes and reacts to caffeine and explains how understanding your genotype can help you to optimise your health.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Sleep can support anti-ageing, the burning of fat, improve focus, productivity, creativity, concentration and protect your brain against cognitive decline.

It’s easy to reach for caffeine when you are really exhausted but over time you are depleting your adrenal glands and if taken at the wrong time caffeine it can disrupt deep sleep.

You can use caffeine safely and effectively as a powerful neutropenic for enhancing cognitive function but without comprising your ultimate superpower – sleep

Research shows that each person’s unique genetic makeup will determine the degree to which caffeine will affect them

Polymorphism divides people into one of two groups the fast metabolizers and the slow metabolizers of caffeine

Knowing how your body processes caffeine can help you to know how much caffeine you should drink in a day

Getting your DNA tested can help you to understand your genotype and optimise your health in relation to a number of key areas

Your DNA can tell you about how the caffeine interacts with your vitamin D receptor gene and whether the caffeine consumption can have an impact on bone density

BEST MOMENTS

‘If you drink a cup of coffee in the afternoon around half of that will be circulating in your system when you go to bed’

‘Without deep sleep, you are more likely to get sick more likely to feel depressed and gain an unhealthy amount of weight’

‘Knowing how your body process caffeine can help you to know how much caffeine you should drink in a day’

Finding Your Authentic Self and Your Own Happiness With Kristina Mand-Lakhiani Oct 24, 2019

“Life is too important to be taken seriously; we have to make peace with all aspects of it.”

Welcome back to the latest episode of the High-Performance Health Podcast! Today, Angela talks to Kristina Mand-Lakhiani about personal transformation. For her, it’s all about authenticity, balance and consistency. Meaning, we can only be sure we’re moving forward if we are being our authentic self and we embrace and be ready for the positive and negative sides of what life has to offer. It doesn’t matter how slow you go—no rush! Kristina also emphasises that when you have the right mindset, achieving things becomes easier. Discover also about the pros and cons of being uncomfortable, long-term goals vs. instant gratification, having no daily routines, some parenting tips, and a lot more. Start tuning in!

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Be true to yourself. If you stop acting how people want you to act, it’s easier to live life and achieve more. It’s okay if you don’t live up to their expectations; you can’t please everyone anyway.
Having a clear conscious mind helps in solving your problems. Meditating, journaling, and sharing your stories with someone are just some ways that can help you have clarity with a certain situation.
Experience > Knowledge. Experience are great motivators and illuminators. When we truly understand and contemplate the things that happened to us, we become more perceptive regarding decision-making.
Little changes in life make way bigger impact in life, rather than the abrupt ones. So, don’t rush things; don’t rush transformations. Let things happen at their own pace.
Uncomfortability is part of life, part of growth. When you put yourself in a new, uncharted spot, you become adaptable and you learn to thrive.
Instant Gratification vs Long-term benefit. Kristina emphasised that your mindset has a big effect on how you achieve your goals. For her, having an investor mindset works since it focuses on the long term.
Avoid situations you don’t enjoy, you don’t have the passion for to not destroy your creativity.
When it comes with the daily routine, she wants it to be flexible as much as possible. She enjoys having the freedom of choosing what she wants to do. It’s also beneficial to her he listens to her subconscious, to her body on how she’ll act.

BEST MOMENTS

“We can only influence ourselves, and occasionally, our experience can give permission to influence.”
“The truth in life is you can never solve your problems ahead.”
“We have to give up this perfectionist notion of doing it right, of becoming the best version of ourselves.”
“No one can give you the answer. You’re the only one who can make the decision.”
“Accept yourself what you are.”
“I like to listen to my body and to be physically active when my body says so…I don’t follow rules easily.”

ABOUT THE GUEST

Kristina Mand-Lakhiani is a serial entrepreneur, international speaker and artist. As a part of Mindvalley, she brings her female perspective into the company leadership. As a happiness from within advocate, Kristina takes her kids on trips to the Amazon jungles to recharge or joins groups of entrepreneurs, such as Maverick1000 on Richard Branson's Necker Island.

Finding Your Power; Interview with Kiki Bosch Ice Freediver & Global Adventurer Oct 17, 2019

‘It’s easy to see ourselves as separate and distinct from nature when in reality we are not’

Kiki Bosch is an Ice Freediver who uses the Wim Hof breathing method to dive in sub-zero temperatures.

Kiki shares her journey and speaks candidly about how she found peace and understanding following a traumatic event. She shares how it feels to be in the water at sub-zero temperatures and the connection it brings to nature. This is an episode about the power we all have to realise our potential if we learn to understand who we are.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Water

I have always been very water-bound, loving water from a very young age. I had the opportunity to have a go at free diving in Columbia and fell in love with it!

I experienced a trauma and following it became very anxious and struggled mentally. I didn’t know how to navigate life anymore.

I came across Wim Hof in a video saying his method could make you happy and healthy and I wanted that more than anything at that point in my life.

I tried and when I went into the cold water there was no anxiety just the present, breathing and my body moving through the water with no anxiety.

Being at one with nature

Over time nature has taught me so much, it’s about being in the water and being able to explore in a unique way.

In extreme environments it’s a reflection of yourself, nature is reflecting who you are.

We are nature as much as everything else out there.

It is about understanding that nature is not out there it’s part of who I am it’s within me.

Wim Hof

Wim Hof breathing is a method of controlled hyperventilation, you breathe in through your nose deep into your stomach, activate your diaphragm and breathe out quickly.

The hyperventilation rids your body of CO2 and fills your body with oxygen then in retention the CO2 builds steadily making it easier for your muscles to draw up the oxygen from your blood.

Periaqueductal grey matter is activated with Wim Hof breathing and this sends a message to your brain to regulate pain.

You are activating your own pain inhibitors with this breathing method.

Gratitude

Following my trauma I have learnt that I will never understand how a person can hurt someone in that way without feeling guilty and I have realised that I’m so lucky to not be able to understand, it means my mind isn’t even able to imagine what it would feel like and I feel grateful for that.

Mentors

My biggest mentors are nature and Wim Hof. You can’t be what you can’t see and very few people have visions strong enough to chase what’s not yet out there and Wim Hof is one of those people.

He had a vision strong enough to defy the status quo and it paved the way for us to realise the huge potential that is within us.

You have to realise you can, you do have the power.

Disturb the Comfort!

BEST MOMENTS

‘It’s about becoming mindful of your body in space’

‘I’m so grateful I have a mind that is compassionate and understands consequences’

‘Over time I have realised we are all connected to nature and to each other’

‘I was at a point where I had to find the power within

Change Is Possible For Anyone – with Darren Kirby Oct 10, 2019

Darren Kirby has undergone an empowering journey of transformation since 2013. From a lifestyle of city living, Darren transformed the way he was existing, until now, when he has become one of the country’s most accomplished triathletes, and who’s now in contention for the world championships for 2020.

Darren joins Angela to discuss the way he turned his life around, and the practical ways in which you can do so, too.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The biggest change Darren made to himself early on was with his nutrition. Research taught him about macro-nutrients, fat types, carbohydrates. When the weight started coming off, the fitness also began to improve.
Darren had a profound emotional experience when he completed his first triathlon. The work you need to do in order to cross the finish line, is what drives him to do better each day.
You can either eat food that is nutrient dense, and that will nourish you. Or you can eat processed foods, which are devoid of energy. But further than that, processed foods actually deplete you, as your good nutrients are used in order to process these bad foods.
Exercise in the morning is very effective for starting the day off well. Sleep is something Darren has doubled down on this year. He is asleep by 9:30pm.
There are many benefits to keeping the same sleep pattern throughout the week. Blue light reduction is also essential to good sleep.
Any detailed or focussed work that Darren needs to do, are best done between his morning routine and when his children wake up. After lunchtime, he feels a dip in focus.
Transforming your life is entirely possible. Using Darren’s Busy Dads programme will kick-start your own transformation and get you started on the road to health.

BEST MOMENTS

‘You can get away with things until your early twenties, but by your thirties, it starts to take its toll’

‘I’ve never felt like I wanted to stop’

‘Calmness is a banned word in our house’

‘Find something you love to do, and it won’t be an issue. You’ll find ways to do it’

‘I’m not superman. I’m just an ordinary dad'

Optimising Your Brain For High Performance – with Dr Andrew Hill Oct 06, 2019

This week sees Angela in conversation with Dr Andrew Hill, the founder of the Peak Brain Institute, and an expert in Cognitive Neuroscience, attention and neurofeedback.

Dr Hill joins Angela today to talk about how to optimise your brain for high performance, how to access different brain wave states, and how to cure conditions such as insomnia, ADHD and PTSD.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Taking control of your brain performance is almost like going to a gym. By following a workout routine, you can achieve physical goals. It’s the same with brain performance, and each “workout” is tailored to your optimal goals.
ADHD sufferers rely on the environment they’re in to cue which mode their brain is in. In a high stimulus environment, they are generally more focussed than average. This is why they can play video games for hours, but cannot seem to concentrate in a classroom.
If you drink alcohol every day, even small amounts, then coming away will leave your brain wanting Gaba, a chemical messenger in the brain that is supplied by drinking. The longer you drink, the more stuck you become in that need.
One of the most common misconceptions with alcohol is that a glass of something will help you sleep, when in fact it disrupts the formation of deep sleep, and causes toxins which disrupt sleep.
Before age 12, your children will identify with the values and socialisation that you bring them up with. From 13 through to late teens, there is a common dis-identification from parents and a rededication with peer. This is usually the phase in which the child will rebel, or seek to establish an identity separate from the family unit.
The biggest driver we have for circadian rhythm is not light, but when we eat. To keep ourselves in that rhythm, we need to not eat at the end of the day. It’s the most important rule.
Don’t eat before you go to bed. Don’t eat as soon as you wake up. Exercise in the morning before you eat. These are the cardinal rules for circadian reinforcements.
The best way of losing weight is to sleep at the right time. You can literally sleep yourself thin. Getting the right amount of sleep actually helps you to gain muscle mass.

BEST MOMENTS

‘Hire a doctor and they give you answers. Hire a scientist and they give you questions’

‘You shift through neutral in and out of gears’

’There are no benefits to alcohol’

‘People are variable and it’s a complicated formula’

‘If you’re living with signals that don’t make sense to your brain, then you get depressed and tired'

Positive Sleep - Getting the Competitive Edge with the Right Amount of Sleep; Interview with Giles Watkins Sep 26, 2019

‘Sleep is free you just have to find ways to do it properly and to get enough of it’

This is a fascinating interview with Giles Watkins author of ‘Positive Sleep’

As a business leader who has experienced sleep problems addressed them successfully and transformed his life Giles discusses with Angela his journey and the reasons why lack of sleep is so devastating and how the right amount and quality of sleep can not only transform your life but give you the competitive edge.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

There is always a trigger point which marks the beginning of sleep problems and if you are having problems getting to sleep it's very difficult if you are with someone who is not.

Sleep - People underestimate the effects of a lack of sleep or lack of quality sleep and the impact it has on decision making and creativity.

The front part of the brain, the neocortex, is the part of the brain responsible for executive functions; problem-solving, reasoning, planning and creativity, research suggests this part of the brain is the most affected by sleep or the lack of it.
If you are short of sleep your ability to use your ‘helicopter mode’, looking at the whole problem with an informed overview becomes compromised
When you are in a good place and have had enough sleep your creativity, pattern recognition and insight development function at optimum levels.

Napping - There has been research indicating a nap can improve your performance

There are 2 types of naps- the power nap researched by NASA and the optimum time for this is 26 minutes in length. The longer nap is the full 90 minutes a complete sleep cycle.

Beginning the day - There is evidence that when you wake up your brain is still processing the emotions and memories from the previous day.

It can take nearly an hour for the brain to ‘warm-up’ and be ready for the day.
Putting aside time to ‘let the day in’ is important and this time can be effectively spent expressing gratitude and visualising.

Ending the day - You have to get yourself ready for the end of the day and the last 90 minutes of the day are vital.

Have a cut off time for the use of devices and positively complete domestic tasks to ensure things are tidied away and you are in a relaxed state of mind ready to sleep.

Sleep apnoea

It is quite common but many people don’t realise the impact it has. The micro wake-ups mean you are unable to ever reach a level of restorative sleep
To achieve good sleep, you have to look at your lifestyle.
Caffeine can play a major role in sleep issues and giving up or being mindful about your consumption of caffeine can make a difference.
Having access to natural light is another factor required to remain healthy and well. Lack of natural light can also affect sleep patterns and the quality of sleep experienced.

Competitive Edge - When you are really tired you no longer have the capacity to seek different perspectives. It is demotivating for others when as the leader you are not able to cope with different ideas and alternative solutions

Emotionally you are not in a place to support people or cope with the emotions of others
When you have enough and the right quality of sleep you will have a competitive edge
The energy demands on leaders, executives and entrepreneurs are akin to the energy required by athletes.
You need to treat yourself as an athlete and if you get the basics right – sleep, nutrition and movement you are giving yourself a competitive advantage.

BEST MOMENTS

‘She encouraged me to find my unique voice and unique position on sleep which is as a business leader who has had a sleep problem and addressed it’

‘The body scanning technique is magic and once you have learnt it you can use it wherever you are’

‘People underestimate the effects of a lack of sleep or lack of quality sleep and the impact on decision making and creativity’

Getting the Balance of Nutrition Right for Your Mind and Body – Interview with Takaloo Sep 18, 2019

‘If I hadn’t had to overcome challenges I wouldn’t be the person I am’

In this fascinating interview Angela is talking with Takaloo, a successful professional boxer turned property developer and investor.

They discuss his journey, boxing career and the importance of achieving balance in your body and mind through the right nutrition.

This is an inspiring story and the determination of Takaloo is a defining aspect, listen in and find out more about this amazing individual and his story.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

What was it like growing up?

We came as a family from Iran, things were difficult in the beginning,  it was hard to flee our own country and come to another country.

As a kid, I was determined to get to where I wanted to be and if I hadn’t had to overcome challenges I wouldn’t be the person I am.

All I wanted to do was to become a boxer and I achieve it because I was determined.

In boxing you’ve got to have strength and fitness and when in the ring someone is hitting you.

Experiencing what it actually feels like when you are in the boxing ring teachers you some important life lessons.

My target was to become successful and be someone different, anyone can do it if they have the determination.

You need to have the right mindset to be a successful boxer, It's neurologically demanding.

How important is Nutrition?

Nutrition is  the key and if you can get this right it will give you an edge

If you can get nutrition, mindset and training in balance then you can move forward successfully.

It's about minimising food intolerances, anything that is working against the body takes up energy.

Your body adapts and improves if you give it the right tools.

The DNA nutrition profile provides you with a really good understanding of what the right balance is for you.

Food is fuel and when it's nutrient-dense you don’t have to eat as much.

Understanding what you are eating and how it fuels your body is vital.

What skills have been transferable from boxing to business?

In boxing, you have to learn about the fear and develop the strength to move through it

You have to be brave in both boxing and business.

You have to be prepared to take risks if you are entrepreneurial

What is really important?

Your health is your wealth and it is the way forward

Prevention is the most effective way to stay healthy and getting the right balance of exercise and nutrition is key to being healthy.

When your exercise and nutrition are balanced and right for you it is easier to cope with the negative events that we all encounter in life

If you can get your life in balance you will have a happier life.

The smarter you work the luckier you get.

BEST MOMENTS

‘If you want to live life then you must make sure you drink enough water’

get enough protein, breathe and keep moving’

‘At that time we were the only foreigners in the area you had to be tough and stand up for yourself’

‘If people were better educated they would move more regularly and eat better’

Interview With Fabienne Fredrickson Sep 12, 2019

In this fascinating episode, Angela is talking with Fabienne Fredrickson, Founder of Boldheart.com and creator of the Client Attraction System.

They talk about the work Fabienne does to help people find what they are here to do in service to the planet and why working with integrity, love and authenticity in business and life are key to achieving balance.

There is something for everyone in this very personal interview, with Fabienne sharing her experiences, beliefs and how you can take your message into the world in a bigger way.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Beginning

I began in a very different arena but left my corporate job in 1999 because I felt it wasn’t my passion.

I started my own practice but didn’t have enough clients, I was making some money but not enough money.

By learning everywhere, I could and because I was committed to not going back to corporate or working for someone else in 8 months I filled my practice through authentic marketing and authentic client attraction.

I had created a client attraction system for myself and was approached by others who wanted me to teach them how to do the same for their businesses.

People then started asking me how they could work with hundreds of clients. To move forward from the overwhelm of 6 figures to 7 figures with your life back is about leveraging your time, your team, your systems and your business model.

The system

If you follow and implement the 10 step Client Attraction System you can attract clients and grow your business.

The craft is the pillars and it is those that can be leveraged and scaled.

You create your proprietary system then you find ways of delivering it in a way where you can work with more people. It helps you take your message into the world in a much bigger way.

To whom much is given, much is expected and if you’ve been given a lot its totally ok to have free content, the content that changes lives.

The Dalai Lama

Through a private invite, a small group of us went there to learn how to change the world.

‘The world is not ok’, ‘if we do nothing our planet will be a desert in 200 years’

We know about climate change but the majority of the population is not paying enough attention.

The balance

I believe that we, solo entrepreneurs especially the women are the ones who will shift the toxic ways of how we are showing up on the planet.

I am both a business coach and here in service of the divine feminine and my belief system tells me it is the toxic masculine that is unbalanced

There are 4 things that will change the world;

Loving-kindness
Compassion
Equanimity
Living with joy
Boldheart

The bold is the masculine – strategy, action, implementation and mindset

The heart is the feminine – life’s purpose, love, joy, friendship, intuition and collaboration.

It’s about the difference between masculine and feminine energy. Part of it for women in business is getting back into the feminine.

Leveraging time

It's about using your time for expediential growth activities that will take you to 7 figures

A big part of growing is learning to get your needs met and to no longer needing to people, please.

Energy depletion is the worst thing that can happen for a business

Getting nutrition, exercise, sleep and your needs met are key to being able to serve

A day in the life

My daily routine has been different as my journey has progressed. At the start, I used a daily break out and my day was organised to fit absolutely everything in. Now I have a team of 30, I’m very well supported and have a daily breakout where I move from my feminine to masculine and back again.

I know the balance is necessary for a happy life.

If you want fulfilment you find time to prioritise the things you’d regret if you didn’t, everything is centred around balance and nature.

Self-worth

It’s always a deserving issue, if you have the belief that you deserve the best of absolutely everything then you don’t accept anything less than absolutely the best.

When you have the right support at home and at work you can do anything.

Your team are your collaborators who enable you so you treat them authenticity, lovingly and with integrity.

BEST MOMENTS

‘I help people find that edge, what they are here to do on the planet, then multiply it

in service to the world through their business with authenticity, integrity and love’

‘Money is energy, being rewarded effectively for the value you are giving’

‘The things that you are passionate about are not random they are your calling’

‘A strong focus now creates a different future later’

Overconsumption of alcohol and drugs can cause brain damage or brain injury. The good thing is once you stopped consuming the stuff that’s bad for your health, your brain activity slowly goes back to normal. According to German, it takes 6-12 months for the brain to recover.
For quite some time, people believed that fat was bad. Fat is not terrible as you think it is—your body needs it. Companies started making fat-free products so they can still sell. But what people should be worried of is sugar, which has the same effect on the brain when you consume alcohol or drugs.
If German were to choose between high IQ and high EQ, he’d choose high EQ. People who have high IQ but have very low EQ are less social, which is something that will ensure high performance and help you climb up the ladder in your career or business.
Emotional Intelligence is highly trainable. Understanding how EQ works and affects us is the first step. It’s easier to nurture relationships when we don’t act upon the impulse to react negatively.
Techniques to enhance your learning:
- Interleaving: Studying inter-related subjects at the same time.
- Dual Coding: Associating words with images.
Tips on Speed Reading:
- Read the back cover or the table of contents so you’ll get the general idea.
- When you read main text, focus on reading a few words at the same time instead of reading word per word.

BEST MOMENTS

“Your brain dictates how successful you’re going to be.”
“97% of Alzheimer’s cases could have been prevented if you lead a healthy life.”
“100 years ago, the average human consumed about 5 grams of sugar per day. Now, the average human consumes 200-300 grams of sugar per day.”
“Being addicted to food is harder than being addicted to cocaine.”
“The more you know, the more confident you are; the more confident you are, you can sell yourself better.”
“Learning is the key to success.”

Biohacking Wisdom – with Tim Gray Aug 27, 2019

After almost destroying himself physically through overwork, Tim Gray decided on a complete reboot, starting from the beginning when it came to health. 

Since then he has become one of the world’s most influential biohacking experts and health optimisers. Tim joins Angela today to talk about his journey back from the brink, and to share his wisdom and experience in getting the best out of your mind and body.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Tim was far too focussed on business and not enough upon his health, which caused catastrophic damage to his health, with his immune system essentially shutting down. Needing a complete reboot, Tim decided to focus on rebuilding his health.
Meditation is an extremely effective way of de-stressing your mind and get your brain firing on all cylinders. Couple this with adequate hydration and nootropics to get your brain back to its best.
In order to be at your mental best, Tim recommends a perfect balance of ketogenic diet, hydration, hyperbaric oxygen therapy and smart drugs.
Most of the high performers that Tim knows are all sleeping properly. We need to respect sleep.

If you are going to bed after sunset, use blue-blocking glasses to block out blue light which causes melatonin. Tim recommends using a blackout blind.
Gut health determines our entire physical health. If we’re not chewing properly, if our dental health is not good, and if the enzymes in our stomach aren’t working properly in conjunction with bacteria, then we do not get the nutrients we need.
The reasons we drink water are to flush out toxins, and to help move minerals and nutrients around the blood to fuel the body.
Brain fog can be caused by lack of oxygen, lack of electrolytes, it can be that our electrical system is struggling, and ll these problems can be linked to dehydration.
For people living in cities or towns, Tim recommends hyperbaric oxygen therapy, blue light blocking, grounding mouse mats and bedsheets. We can’t count these things out completely, but we can minimise their effects.

Life is about prioritising health. Money becomes less relevant as our happiness grows. The happiest and smartest people are those who practice preventative health.

BEST MOMENTS

‘I’ve always been a two hundred mile an hour business guy’

‘Meditation takes you into the “shower” moment’

’Sleep is really undervalued’

‘People really underestimate minerals’

‘You’ve got to do what you love, and to do what you love you have to be healthy'

‘Man sacrifices his health to create wealth, and at the end of the life, sacrifices wealth for health'

Learn About Nutrigenomics with Bernie Williams From my DNA health Aug 20, 2019

Diet is not one size fits all. What works for someone might not work for another.

In this episode of High-Performance Health Podcast, Angela chats with Bernie Williams, co-founder of myDNAhealth, about the importance of understanding genetics if we want to live healthily. Bernie has always been passionate in nutritional genetics, nutrigenomics, and epigenetics. She shares today how you can practice proper health and nutrition management.

We can prevent ill-health by making better lifestyle changes, choosing healthy foods, and situating in a toxic-free environment. Understand how our body works and what’s the best diet and nutrition for you. Be unstoppable in achieving your goals by being fit and healthy. Start tuning in to know more.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Gene are a set of instructions for building specific products, such as enzymes.
Dietary advice differs from one person to another. Bernie explains that metabolic pathways differ between people, so it’s important you understand how your own body works. Now, how do we distinguish from each other? Genetic Variation, lifestyle choices, environment, and the food you eat.
If you’re basing your diet on what a random person on the internet tells you, you’re risking your health. Complications (e.g. inflammation from too much omega-3) can happen when you get more than the enough dose of the supplement.
Methylation cycle balance is needed to ensure that every body activity is working optimally.
- MTHFR (methylenetetrahydrofolate) – if you have this gene variant, enzyme function can reduce up to 6o-70%. So, it’s important to get the right amount of folate and b-vitamins in your body.
What is driving obesity? What is driving Type-II Diabetes? Look at your genetic capacity and the choices you make every day. When you understand them already it’s easier to make healthy choices. The improvements will happen and show drastically.
Always research on the products before you consume them. Also, make sure you breathe fresh air; stay away from areas that are polluted.

BEST MOMENTS

“That’s [genetics] only half of the picture, the other half of the picture is actually your environment and your lifestyle.”
“When you’re using your lifestyle questionnaires, you want to make sure you’re moving to the right direction.”
“The better journey, which is actually easier to do, is to start enjoying food and understanding why it’s better to try cook packed foods…and it doesn’t cause a lot of money.”
“How much might you spend to farther down in your health? How much money are you leaving on the table, on your productivity, on your success, by not taking care of your health?”

As a keen sportsperson Bernie has always had an interest in nutrition, health and science and the positive impact in health, longevity and disease prevention. As a young 800m athlete she understood the importance of nutrition for energy utilisation and recovery.

Prior to myDNAhealth, Bernie spent over 20 years in corporate leadership roles where she was recruited to solve problems ranging from growing performance driven multicultural teams, CRM programs and systems and developing brands and products. These corporate environments were highly stressed and her own health and wellbeing was not a priority and she decided to do something about it. So, in 2014 together with the other founders of myDNAhealth, she helped to develop the first DNA testing product and the company was born.

The Power of Mindset With 11x Football Founder Lee Tuck Aug 13, 2019

It all starts with your mindset. Your mindset has the power to let you see how and start achieving your goals.

Today on the High-Performance Health Podcast, Angela Foster talks to Lee Tuck, a professional footballer and the founder of 11x Football. Lee started 11x Football to help every aspiring pro footballer and for them to continue to dream. Not everyone has an access to quality training programs provided by professional trainers and coaches. And, as he experienced this kind of dilemma while building his career, Lee offers a helping hand. Through 11x Football, he wants to improve your mindset, your techniques, and your nutrition to help you push yourself in your career. He also shares in this episode his personal stories so make sure to tune in.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

He started playing rugby when he was 8 and football when he was 10. It was when he was 12 that he started training with Halifax Town. He had a year experience of playing professional football. It got tough when he got released.
So, when he moved to Thailand and got a chance to play professional football again, he changed his mindset and his behaviors to start his football career overseas. He trained every day to improve himself.
He has been playing with Terengganu, a professional football club based in Malaysia, for 2 seasons now.
Lee admits that there was no constant football mentor around him while he was building his career. It was the support from his family and his own determination that keeps him resolute in his pursuit of his own legacy.
Having an unstoppable mindset when building your professional football career is powerful. Lee advises to keep visual boards and a journal about your goals, and to meditate to gain focus and clarity.

BEST MOMENTS

“It’s never too late for young males and females to make it (in professional football).”
“What I did was to change my mindset, focus on myself and not what people are doing around me.”
“There’s a lot of players out there who can make it (in professional football) but they don’t know who turn to.”
“Putting this training program in place… it gives these players a chance to improve as players on a professional level and to give them confidence.”

“If you give up, you lose, but if you keep going, then it’s only a matter of time before you’re successful again.”

Life Is An Ever-Evolving Journey – with Stephanie Bellinger Aug 06, 2019

Angela is joined in this episode by Stephanie Bellinger, the Spiritual Boss Babe, a mindset expert and spiritual coach who specialises in helping women become the best versions of themselves.

By being more aware of our own stories, and by asking the question “Who do I need to be to get where I’m going?”, we can all live the life we’re meant for. Change begins with telling ourselves that we’re ready for it. We are who we want to be, not the sum total of our story so far.

In this empowering show, Stephanie talks about the building blocks you need to start effecting positive change immediately.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

10 to 20 minute hypnosis sessions with Stephanie each day, in person or by use of her specially produced hypnosis recordings can aid our mindset. The subconscious learns from repetition, so the best way to imprint new beliefs and feelings is take time each day to work new practices into our daily routine.
Time is irrelevant when it comes to self-improvement. It’s all about just telling ourselves that we’re ready for change. We’re ready to get out of our own way. I’m ready to learn.
Self-belief and an internal energy boost, are the factors that can translate to a more successful business life. If we do the work on ourselves first, then the effects will trickle down. Mental alignment and clarity can only be a benefit to out business perspective.
Taking the step first, and taking it yourself, is the first step towards manifestation. You can’t wait for it to come to you. You need to go out there and get it. Stretch your comfort zone. Challenge your identity.
In order to build confidence we should do something positive for ourselves each and every day. Also, get out of your comfort zone. It’s harder to grow in an enclosed space.
In business, it’s always better to focus on the energy and gratitude side of your output. Being excited about bringing amazing results to your people should be your primary focus instead of the income you hope to make, which is a by-product of the impact you’re making.
Visualise the life you want for yourself. Imagine who is with you. How are you feeling? What does that life look like? By visualising, we take the first step to achieving it.
Life is a constantly evolving journey. We should prepare ourselves for the next stage, and when we reach it, prepare for the stage after that. We’re either growing or dying. The dream life you visualise is only the next step in this journey. There will be more.

BEST MOMENTS

‘Hypnosis is so powerful because it puts us in a trance state, and when we’re there we can make new suggestions to the sub-conscious mind, the part of our brain that’s really running the show’

’Things don’t always have to make logical sense. Instead, more people need to focus on “being”'

‘Jump and it’ll appear’

‘Action builds confidence and crushes fear’

‘Imagination is the language of the sub-conscious mind’

’The whole point of living is to grow and expand. It makes life more exhilarating’

Maximising The Moment with AJ Mihrzad Jul 30, 2019

Angela Foster is joined by AJ Mihrzad, best-selling author, high-performance connoisseur, and founder of Online Supercoach.

In this insightful and rewarding episode, AJ shares his formula for success, discusses the importance of health and energy on business and life, and the techniques he uses in order to achieve the state of mind that has led to his incredible success.

By doing so, we can always maximise the moment and get the most out of each second.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Many people assume that just because a diet works for one person, that it’ll work for them too. But we are each individuals, and our genetic makeup can be completely different. The key is to determine the best course of action depending on our own genetics.
Coaching is the art of instilling energy, vitality and health so that people can in turn build healthy, vital companies in turn.
AJ is a huge proponent of naps! Regular naps have improved his energy, his vitality and his focus. Coupled with intermittent fasting techniques and meditation, AJ has realised that the “8 Hour Sleep Cycle” is a dormant relic of yesteryear, when work cycles were much different.
Our peak periods of creativity may arrive at different times. Some are day people, some are early risers. Some are night owls. It’s okay be creative at these times. Fitting sleep patterns around our most productive periods is perfectly acceptable.
Optimising our work areas is a hugely beneficial practice. Allowing ourselves to move and even exercise while working can increase blood flow and productivity, as well as reduce aches, pains and physical stresses.
The effect of alcohol on health - Angela is keen to note the difference between drinking a glass of fine red wine, which can contain higher levels of anti-oxidants, and that has been prepared and cared for in a more natural way, is very different to wine you would buy in a store, which is usually full of sulphites. The problem is the quality of the alcohol we consume, and the fact that so many indulge too heavily.
Prioritising the care of our health will ultimately ensure our ability to earn. That’s why health is so important to the most successful entrepreneurs and those in business.
For AJ, it’s not enough to “fake it till you make it”. The route to real success is built upon the skill to turn ourselves, internally, into the person who achieves our goals.
True success comes from maximising each moment. This begins by asking ourselves constantly: “How can I capitalise on this moment and make the most out of it?"

BEST MOMENTS

‘Energy is the biggest thing’

‘Your main goal is to keep the energy as high as possible'

‘People are attracted to your energy’

‘When you’re vocal about your biohacks, people understand’

‘I don’t take any stops when it comes to investing in my health’

‘Be. Do. Have’

‘Maximise this moment'

Is Alcohol Stopping YOU from Getting a Good Night’s Sleep? – Interview with James Swanwick Jul 23, 2019

‘Everyone can get a good night’s sleep’

In this interview, Angela is discussing the value of sleep with James Swanwick Australian American entrepreneur, speaker, former sports centre anchor on ESPN, host of the James Swanwick podcast and author of the ‘30 day no alcohol challenge’.

James shares his extensive advice and expertise on the effects alcohol has on sleep and how we can break the habits that are holding us back.

They discuss in depth how the quality of our sleep affects all areas of our lives and the ways in which we can all improve our sleep and improve our lives.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

You get to a point where the seemingly innocent drink at the end of the day results in a lack of clarity, focus and energy the following day and all these elements combined lead to a compromised life.
The reality is that alcohol is a poison with toxins and those toxins remain in the body for 7 to 10 days.
If you do what nature intended and drink water you will look the way nature intended and your hormones will work the way they are supposed to, your clarity focus, and energy increase and your sleep will improve dramatically.
If you can sleep the way nature intended it results in a better life.
Most people who complete 30-day challenges tell themselves they are depriving themselves and celebrate making it by returning to the same indulgences. I show them how to rewire their brains so that outstanding health becomes the desired reward.
The support of friends and family is inconsequential compared to the support you can get from a coach who will hold you accountable when the going gets tough.
Some people have very self-destructive behaviour – they are not afraid of failure they are afraid of success and no longer being mediocre.
Clarity focus and energy are a choice because naturally, our brain wants to look for danger.
If your ‘why ‘is big enough, the ‘how’ just falls into place.

Top tips;

Don’t drink alcohol
Focus on experiencing great sleep – everything starts with great sleep
Live in appreciation rather than expectation most of the time
Raise your energy with outstanding health – get the right nutrition, hydration and plenty of sunlight.
Wear blue light blocking glasses prior to going to sleep.
It's about going back to the way we were designed in nature, regulate serotonin and melatonin through exposure to blue light early in the day. Drink lots of water and eat whole foods, those that can be picked, plucked or killed.

BEST MOMENTS

‘Be grateful for what you have achieved, what you have at the moment and grateful for what you will grow into’

‘The biggest thing holding us back is ourselves ‘

‘We are artificially keeping ourselves awake with the devices in our lives’

‘Alcohol may help you fall asleep, but the quality of sleep will be comprised’

‘Clarity, focus and energy are a choice because naturally, our brain wants to look for danger’

The Art of Mental Boxing with Billy Schwer Jul 16, 2019

In this very special episode, Angela is in conversation with former world boxing champion, personal performance coach, author and professional speaker, Billy Schwer.

Since retiring from boxing, Billy has been working with business leaders, showing them how to empower, achieve and score huge wins in business and life.

Billy joins Angela today to discuss his own transformation from boxing as a sport to "Mental Boxing”, an empowering concept born from a period of transition in his own life, along with his seven-step winning formula for success.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Billy’s whole life has been founded upon the drive to prove his worth, and to show the world that he is strong enough to take anything on. This is a belief that he tries to instil now into those he coaches.
Transitioning from professional sportsman to life in the real world was something that Billy struggled with a great deal, as he was forced to analyse himself all over again. Billy likens the process to mourning the death of a friend. Billy The Boxer was someone who suddenly did not exist anymore, and the effect upon himself was devastating.
Time and perspective have allowed Billy to realise that although he spent the first part of his life fighting and pushing himself in order to achieve his goals, when he reached them, he suddenly came to the understanding that the journey itself was the important part.
The things that caused Billy to be a champion inside the ring, also caused him to fail outside of it. Always be conscious of every outcome of the decisions we make in life. By stepping back and analysing himself in detail, he realised that and was able to make valuable adjustments.
Failing to admit to ourselves that things aren’t going as planned can often be a huge stumbling block in self=growth. Billy advises that we stop and “man-up”. Admit when things aren’t going well. It might be hard, but the rewards are endless.
Part of Billy’s incredible success in boxing was his ability to completely visualise every aspect of every fight, from the arrival at the venue to the fight itself, and even so far as to envisioning the press conference afterwards. By seeing the fight beforehand and visualising his victory over and over again, Billy was able to instil a highly-developed sense of self-belief that often carried him to victory.
Self-doubt is a huge killer of the belief in what’s possible. You’re only as good as the future you’re living into and manifesting for yourself. Live for each moment and don’t waste precious time doubting or worrying about the things that might happen.
We have coaches to help us along in sports. There are coaches for people in business. Even the most successful and financially wealthy people have coaches. Coaches in life are equally as important and should be more widely accepted.
It’s not always about an abundance of training or exercise in order to make ourselves feel better. Being fit, healthy and positive is all about using exercise in an efficient way. Little and often can sometime be far more effective than pushing ourselves to breaking point.

BEST MOMENTS

‘I believe there’s always a reason why we do what we do'

‘Opinions are like bellybuttons. We’ve all got one and they’re all different'

‘Winning the world title just wasn’t as sweet as I thought it was going to be’

‘Every human interaction has an element of mental boxing’

‘Boxers are the last of the gladiators’

‘Are people living with passion, power and purpose?’

‘Commit to your dreams. Take inspired action. Make it happen’

‘I think everyone should be doing gymnastics’

‘Hindsight’s a wonderful thing but we need to have some foresight! That’s the power of coaching'

An Interview With Niraj Naik, The Renegade Pharmacist Jul 16, 2019

Angela is joined by musician and holistic health expert and entrepreneur Niraj Naik, to talk about his truly inspiring story.

Niraj became known as “The Renegade Pharmacist” after applying the practices of nutritional and holistic therapies alongside his role as a traditional pharmacist. After facing an intense backlash from the big corporations, Niraj was beset by his own health problems that saw him housebound with depression and ulcerative colitis.

But by using his own knowledge and expertise, Niraj managed to cure himself of this condition, and has ever since used this same knowledge and set of techniques to positively transform the lives and health of many, many others.

Join the conversation between Angela and Niraj to hear about his definition of true health, and the inspiring, empowering methods he uses to achieve it.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

After suffering from colitis and seeing no way out, Niraj was advised that if he healed himself, he would be a great role model to others, and so began to study alternative methods of treatment and form contacts with people around the world who had done the same thing.
Breathing techniques and music led Niraj to develop Soma, music that eases the listener into different brainwave sets. Combining this with breathing techniques, and by placing himself in a sauna environment, Niraj was able to achieve trance states where he was able to re-programme his sub-conscious mind.
Niraj believes that when we train our vibrational state through meditation, music, yoga or other methods, we alter our own frequencies, and attract others who may be on the same wavelength and mission. This is what led Niraj to create Soma.
Manifestation and magic won’t work unless you feel good. Self-analysis will reveal the things that are making us feel bad and good. Move toward the things that make you feel good.
The diet and lifestyle that work for you may be completely different to those that work for other people depending on your personal energy type.
Through pranayama techniques we can control the efficiency of mitochondria through oxygen. The more efficient it becomes, the less you need to breathe. Too much oxygen can cause damage, which Niraj likens to a wildfire on a cellular level. Pranayama is all about optimising our breathing and making our oxygen intake far more efficient.
Yoga is about anaerobic exercise as opposed to aerobic exercise. Aerobics is where the practitioner switches from one yoga pose to the next very quickly, and is the most common. Anaerobics is where the pose is held for a much longer time, forcing certain muscles to use up their individual energy supply and nutrients.

By studying people such as the Nepalese Ghurka army and the competitors in the Mexican Olympics, that high altitudes can have an incredible effect upon our strength and health due to low oxygen levels, and in some cases can see a reduction or reversal in symptoms of some diseases. Niraj has incorporated these learnings into his fitness protocols

BEST MOMENTS

‘The word “I” as in ill, and “We” as in wellness’

‘The subconscious mind is like an operating system’

‘You become an architect of your own software’

‘The first thing you need to find out is what is your bliss?’

‘How long you can hold your breath is a measure of how efficient your mitochondria is at using oxygen’

‘What we’re doing is a spiritual practice without any of the dogma or any of the fluff of religion’

‘I really believe in the golden rule which is do unto others as you would do unto yourself’

‘The fact that we are even alive is a miracle'

ABOUT THE GUEST

Niraj Naik first discovered the power of breath after finding peace and solace in a sauna after a hard days work from his highly stressful career as a community pharmacist, when frequently visiting a wellness center called Nirvana in his home town of Reading, England.

He instinctively began to extend his exhalation and even make toning sounds with his voice that would bring him into a deep meditative state. To the surprise of other members of the spa, he was able to stay in the sauna for many times longer than everyone else, up to 45-1hr at 90c+ temperatures.

Eventually he escaped the pharmacy as he was promoted to the head office of one of the largest supermarket chains in the UK to carry out his novel healthy shopping list system for delivering essential life saving information to patients on diet, nutrition and holistic health.

This helped Niraj form the curriculum for Soma Breath, a system based on the traditional yogic practices before they were altered by modern day practitioners of yoga from which this new field of breathwork has emerged, who have either made yoga more dogmatic or have misunderstood it’s real truth and the real breathwork that is contained in the ancient practices of pranayama.

Is There A Single Nutritional Protocol That Helps Everyone? Jul 16, 2019

With so much information out there, it can be extremely difficult to find the nutrition plan that will allow you to achieve optimal health and the best physical results. In our constant quest for wellbeing, more energy and longer life, finding the plan that works for us as individuals can be a tricky task.

In this episode, Angela discusses personalised nutrition and whether or not there’s a single nutritional protocol that can positively benefit everyone.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Human beings share many of the same genes, but the small variants in our genetic make-up can radically alter the way we process and generate energy from proteins, fats and carbohydrates. Our capacity for digesting different types of food is partly dependent on the types of foods our ancestors ate.
One way of determining which dietary course is right for us is to figure out which ancestral strain we belong to, thereby learning exactly how our bodies process different food types. We can find this information out by looking at our own DNA.
After testing her own genetics, Angela discovered that she was particularly sensitive to carbohydrates, and was struggling with PCOS and insulin resistance. Both of her parents’ sides of the family had a strong history of Type II Diabetes. After being told that these conditions might affect her ability to have children, Angela began to research ways of controlling PCOS through nutrition.
The beta adreno-receptor gene variants ADRB2 27 and 16 are vitally important in unlocking fat cells and allowing fat to be burned for energy. Knowing your own variant is vital in understanding how your body will react to carbohydrate intake and staying lean and healthy.
If you carry a certain variant of ADRB2 27, and your aim is to shed body fat through exercise, then you may need to stimulate this gene more and so will benefit greatly from beta-receptor stimulation before you exercise. This can be done by taking caffeine. Understanding how quickly you metabolise caffeine can help you fine-tune things further.
The FTO gene (or “Fatso” gene) is a protein prevalent in the body that’s associated with obesity in adults and children, and acts as a nutrient sensor that impacts hunger and the amount of food we need before we are satisfied. Scientists have found that those with variants of the FTO gene often have a higher Body Mass Index (BMI).
PPARG has been called the “Thrifty Gene” and was named so for its use as a fat-storer. In past times, this gene would have enabled the build-up of body fat to allow humans to survive winters. Now that food is abundant, too much activation of PPARG can cause weight gain and increase the risks of heart disease and stroke.
Time restricted eating is an incredibly powerful way of lowering inflammation and enhancing body composition. It also acts as a fantastic kickstarter to losing body fat.
Angela’s top five nutritional practices for achieving a healthy body and maintaining it are:
- Ruthlessly remove all highly processed foods from your diet.
- Move, move, move!
- Prioritise your sleep
- Use time-restricted eating to restrict your window of eating to a maximum of twelve hours per day
- Test your DNA (you only need to do this once!) and test your key blood bio-markers and your gut annually.

BEST MOMENTS

‘This is a complex process that happens in our cells over a billion times per second’

’Not everyone is as sensitive to carbs as another person’

‘If you’re someone who’s hungry all the time, it could be that the FTO gene is playing a part here’

‘It’s the expression of our genes that’s important’

‘Processed foods are driving the increase in heart disease and weight gain that we’re currently seeing’

‘The sedentary lifestyle has been dubbed the new smoking for a reason’

Biohacks, Breathing and The Healing Power Of Mushrooms, With Blake Bowman Jul 16, 2019

In this episode of the High Performance Health podcast, host Angela Foster talks to holistic health expert, influencer and bio-hacker Blake Bowman, an online content creator with over 150,000 followers on social media.

In this fascinating and deeply insightful conversation, Blake shares a wealth of incredible biohacks and advice, including how to use the power of medicinal mushrooms, the importance of nasal breathing, the benefits of red-light therapy and how it can enhance collagen production, plus Blake’s top tips for correcting muscular imbalances and postural alignment.

By the end of the show, you’ll be in possession of a roadmap that will allow you to instantly upgrade your body and mind and perform at your best.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Blake’s health strategy is a holistic one, incorporating not just diet and exercise, but also areas such as the use of herbs, biohacking, finding routines that optimise brainwaves, and the power of different light waves and exposure to them. Taking control of health is the result of understanding the many factors that impact it.
Our bodies consume light much in the same way that a plant does. Through photon receptors, our bodies consume light for energy. This means that the light sources we take in through our skin and our eyes is extremely important. Most indoor light, whether from bulbs or screens, are completely unnatural and are destructive to our physiology.
Blake’s top tips for optimising lighting conditions in your home are: Swap out LED bulbs for incandescent bulbs. Use crystal rock salt lamps. Dim your lights at night. Buy a pair of blue-blocking glasses and wear them at home. Use candles where possible.
At night, Blake often tapes his mouth so as to encourage nasal breathing. The benefits are that it eliminates snoring, which is caused by sleeping with your mouth open; breathing is optimised when we breathe through our noses as our sinuses mix nitrous gas with our oxygen intake which increases our circulation. Overall, nasal breathing at night profoundly increases your sleep quality.
Red Light Therapy - This has many benefits. Not only does it reduce wrinkles in your skin, but it stimulates your mitochondria, a main producer of ATP energy. Almost all chronic illnesses are associated with low energy production on a cellular level. Red light therapy can be an extremely efficient way of ensuring we gain more energy at this level.
Bad posture is defined by the body’s muscular imbalance. When some muscles are tight and some are weak, they literally hang in different ways from their attachments on your bones and subsequently dictate your posture. Good posture is not created by simplistic methods such as “Sit up straight”. Short breaks while sitting for lengthy periods of time are essential to correcting any muscle imbalances that might be forming.
Blake is a particular proponent of the medicinal benefits of mushrooms, particularly Reishi, otherwise known as the “Queen Of Mushrooms”, which can have positive effects upon such physiological conditions as liver functions, high blood pressure, cholesterol, psoriasis, asthma and allergies. Blake recommends looking for Reishi grown on logs as it is the most natural and most nutritious version, or grow your own from a kit you can purchase online.
Preparing medicinal mushrooms can be tricky. Blake recommends making sure you “extract” the goodness from the mushroom.
- In Reishi, half of the beneficial compounds are water-soluble, while the other half are alcohol-soluble. Use a coffee grinder to grind the mushroom to powder, then you can make tea with the powder (water extract), or put a chopped mushroom in a jar with very strong, pure alcohol (alcohol extract) for a minimum of six weeks.
- Once the alcohol extraction has taken place, strain the extracted fluid and use it in drops onto your tongue to gain the benefits of the extracted compounds.
Lion’s Mane mushroom extract is an incredible tool that aids with the human ability to learn. Blake advises using it for any kind of learning exercise that requires you to gain and adapt to new knowledge, whether mental or physical.

BEST MOMENTS

'Many of us don’t realise that we are constantly consuming junk light, and it’s almost like consuming junk food’

‘Breathing through your nose helps to relax your body’

‘You cannot simply have good posture’

‘Muscles that are always getting strained, are usually weak muscles’

‘We could all do with more zen’
