#35 Winning Willpower Fatigue and Avoiding Ego Depletion with Isaac Chanakira Mar 04, 2018

Show notes

“You may fetter my leg, but Zeus himself cannot get the better of my free will.” - Epictetus Do you have the free will to do whatever you want to do? "Of Course! I'm an independent individual who can make any decision I desire..." you might say at first breath... But do you remember all those times You've skipped a workout just because you don't feel like it You opted for that piece of cake when at a dinner party You spazzed out in anger at that asshole who cut in front of you You can't stay focused on reading because your monkey mind keeps distracting you And my favorite... You make life-determining decisions based on how it affects your position in the dominance hierarchy of your social group and peers Do you still have FREE WILL? In the midst of heated emotions, chaotic situations, ego depletion, willpower fatigue, genetic predispositions, and a world full of distractions it's difficult to say whether or not we have free will or not Viktor Frankl, an Auschwitz camp survivalist and a psychologist, said: "Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of human freedoms - to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one's own way." That's the topic of today's Body Mind Empowerment Podcast. I'm Siim Land and my guest is my friend Isaac Chanakira from the YouTube channel TheRealizedMan.

Show notes

Have you noticed yourself being forgetful, confused, anxious, inflamed or tired all the time? You've tried everything - diet, exercise, sleep, hypnosis, magic pills, and wizardry but nothing works. During his undergraduate studies, Jacob Gordon experienced just that as he was suffering from chronic brain fog and exhaustion The reason for his suffering was a condition called chronic inflammatory response syndrome caused by exposure to mold growing in his living quarters After years of torment and not seeing any results from the best doctors in the world, he decided to take his health into his own hands Jacob delved into the world of epigenetics and Psycho-Neuro-Immunology (that's a mouthful), and he fixed his gut dysbiosis, lowered his chronically high histamine levels, overcame insomnia, corrected his faulty dopamine pathways and transformed his previous “unmotivated/lazy” self into a highly motivated and persuasive individual. That's the topic of today's Body Mind Empowerment Podcast.

#27 Ketones Raise Insulin ?!? - Optimising Nutrition with Marty Kendall Jan 30, 2018

Show notes

We've all heard that carbs and sugar raise blood glucose and insulin. But the same applies to fat and ketones...what?!? The thing is that any source of energy in excess is a signal for the body to utilize it efficiently. High amounts of any fuel, whether that be glucose, fatty acids, or ketones in the bloodstream increases your body's energy usage and consequently may promote storage hormones such as insulin. Now, wait a moment! I thought being in ketosis immediately made you burn fat. Is this a scam?!? The thing is that there's a difference between ENDOGENOUS KETOSIS - burning ketones from your own adipose tissue - VS EXOGENOUS KETOSIS - burning ketones that come from dietary sources. Keto has become very popular due to its sheer effectiveness but there are many misconceptions that need to be clarified. Higher amounts of ketones isn't necessarily indicative of good metabolic health and it won't equal fat loss either The key to longevity is to become keto-adapted and teach your body to produce its own endogenous ketones through caloric restriction, low carb diet, fasting, exercise, and other similar biohacks That and much more in today's Body Mind Empowerment Podcast. I'm Siim Land and our guest is Marty Kendall from Brisbane Australia.Marty runs a popular blog Optimising Nutrition and it's an amazing resource for knowing how certain foods affect your insulin and how to optimize your micronutrient intake We're going to talk about: What's the difference between the glycemic index and insulin index How much insulin does protein raise The unheard of situation of fatty acids and ketones raising insulin How exogenous ketones may actually shut off fat burning Why more ketones isn't better for health nor weight loss What's the difference between endogenous and exogenous ketosis How to optimize your nutrient density instead of energy density Which micronutrients you need to get from your food And Much More...
