EP 246: 1 Supplement That Might Actually Be Worth the Money Mar 04, 2019

Show notes

Ashwagandha is an adaptogenic herb which has been repeatedly shown to be effective at quelling anxiety, improving a person's response to stress, and having neuroprotective properties. There is even some evidence that it may increase physical performance, as well.

Here's one study (randomized double-blind, placebo controlled, etc) showing Ashwaganda's effectiveness in reducing stress and anxiety:

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3573577/

Conclusion: "The findings of this study suggest that a high-concentration full-spectrum Ashwagandha root extract safely and effectively improves an individual's resistance towards stress and thereby improves self-assessed quality of life."

Another scientific overview can be found here: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3252722/

Conclusion: "The available scientific data support the conclusion that Ashwagandha is a real potent regenerative tonic (Rasayana of Ayurveda), due to its multiple pharmacological actions like anti-stress, neuroprotective, antitumor, anti-arthritic, analgesic and anti-inflammatory etc. It is useful for different types of diseases like Parkinson, dementia, memory loss, stress induced diseases, malignoma and others."

EP 244: Can You Really Be Healthy at Any Size? Mar 01, 2019

Show notes

Pat, Aleks, and Som discuss the Healthy at Any Size movement.

...

Studies referenced:

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0735109717390502?via%3Dihub

"Metabolically healthy obese individuals had a higher risk of coronary heart disease, cerebrovascular disease, and heart failure than normal weight metabolically healthy individuals. Even individuals who are normal weight can have metabolic abnormalities and similar risks for cardiovascular disease events."

The author of the study further concludes: "The priority of health professionals regarding these patients should be to promote and facilitate weight loss, as it is with any other obese patient."

...

https://academic.oup.com/eurheartj/article/39/5/397/4081012

"Irrespective of BMI, metabolically unhealthy individuals had higher CHD risk than their healthy counterparts. Conversely, irrespective of metabolic health, overweight and obese people had higher CHD risk than lean people. These findings challenge the concept of 'metabolically healthy obesity', encouraging population-wide strategies to tackle obesity."
