The Science of Cold Water Immersion | Mike Mutzel, MS Mar 27, 2023

Show notes

Cold exposure, including ice baths has been getting a bad rep in the last 2 weeks due to misleading studies cited by many “performance experts” These studies are lacking evidence due to - in part- small sample sizes: studies often include a limited number of participants, making it difficult to generalize the results and gender bias: Some studies have only included participants of one gender, which may not provide a comprehensive understanding of potential benefits.
Joining me today to discuss this is mike Mutzel. Mike is wildly popular in the health, fitness and nutrition space garnering tens of millions of views on his YouTube channel which is actually where I first found out about mike. I am blessed to have him on todays episode because Mike is one of those guys who not only educates but he lives and breathes scientific education.

The BEST FOODS To Eat To Prevent Alzheimer's Disease | Max Lugavere Mar 13, 2023

Show notes

Max Lugavere is a science journalist and New York Times bestselling author on a mission to help people feel better, live longer, and maximize their brain health by optimizing their diet.
On this episode, Max will speak about nutrition and dementia. With so many conflicting views on which nutrition route to take towards staving off Alzheimer's disease, there is too much confusion so Max provides a great overview of what route to take according to clinical data.
Alzheimer's disease, one of the most dreaded conditions of old age, is unfortunately made even more of a burden by a gene called ApoE4. With two copies of this gene, you can double your risk of developing this devastating condition, proving that life isn't always fair. Even if you don't have the gene, aging still increases your chances, making it seem like no matter what you do, Alzheimer's will still creep up on you. But don't lose hope - animal studies have found that heat shock proteins can at least offer some protection against it. So, while Alzheimer's may be looming in your future, there may still be some hope.
