Fasting and Calorie Counting: Which stimulates Hunger Hormones? [Leptin, MSH, AgRP] Jan 20, 2021

Show notes

In this content, I dive into a study looking into three hunger related hormones and the effect water fasting and calorie counting have, in obese and lean individuals, on three hunger hormones - leptin, melanocyte stimulating hormone (MSH), and Aguiti Related Protein (AgRP). Does fasting stimulate these hormones or does calorie counting? Does obesity play a factor? Find out!

Fractalkine: A marker for Alzheimer's and Neuroinflammation Jan 13, 2021

Show notes

In this episode, I discuss a molecule I ran across when listening to the Joe Rogan Experience. This molecule, known as fractalkine, has some unique characteristics and potential implications in a series of different diseases and brain related health outcomes - mostly related to inflammation in the brain.

Three UNKNOWN Benefits of Creatine [Muscle, Brain, and Inflammation] Jan 06, 2021

Show notes

In this episode, we briefly discuss three ways that creatine positively affects us in muscle, the brain, and inflammation. I also introduce my first paid content that I spent most of 2020 working on, as well as a new website for your viewing pleasure - it was a busy 2020 for me!

ASP: The Ketogenic Fat Storage Hormone Dec 30, 2020

Show notes

In this episode, I go into a bit more detail on a topic I've just started releasing content on (in video form). This subject is on a hormone that also leads to fat storage, much like insulin, yet many keto espousing gurus either ignore or are not aware of it; this is convenient, since this hormone is stimulated by fat consumption, not carbohydrate consumption (the exact anti-thesis to insulin).

Chrono nutrition: Intermittent Fasting improves Insulin Sensitivity INDEPENDENT of Calories Dec 16, 2020

Show notes

In this episode, we'll be diving head long into a study investigating the first slice of "chrono nutrition" on Physionic. I love this study, because they do several things really well and give us some clear answers regarding intermittent fasting and its impact on insulin sensitivity *independent* of calorie intake (finally!).

Three Mechanisms of Muscle Growth Dec 09, 2020

Show notes

In this podcast, I decided to jump into an area I've created a decent amount of isolated content and put it into one place. I go into a bit of depth, but not complete depth into three mechanisms of muscle growth - from the classic "muscle damage" to metabolic stress. Knowing this information can easily help us understand how to create training programs that aren't centered around old fashioned thinking - something I'll certainly touch on more, in the future.

Nutrition for Depression: Obesity, Epigenetics, and Tryptophan (yes, the stuff in turkey) Dec 02, 2020

Show notes

In this episode, we'll be diving into our third and final part of our "Nutrition on Depression" podcast wherein we'll be touching on depression's link in obesity, epigenetics, and the amino acid tryptophan (the same stuff found in turkey, and many other foods). Hopefully you find some, if not all, the information useful and informative. If you'd like to see the visuals, check out the video version of the podcast, as well.
