Many of us turn to food to cope with feelings, then we beat ourselves up. Personally, I’m guilty of turning to food when I’m exhausted and then feeling bad about not making great choices or eating when I wasn’t truly hungry. But what we don’t realize is that emotional eating is natural and inborn, and it’s not a matter of having too little willpower.

How Fasting Can Support Hormones, Muscle, And Heal The Body

How Fasting Can Support Hormones, Muscle, And Heal The Body

There’s been a lot of recent discussion around fasting, and for good reason. But one thing that often slips through the cracks is the differences between men and women, and why women need to take a specific approach to fasting that honors their hormones. You may have heard the recent buzz around fasting and a controversial headline associating it with cardiovascular death (which was not peer-reviewed, by the way). So today, I’m resharing this popular episode with holistic health expert Dr. Mindy Pelz to shed light on what we really know about the safety of fasting, and the dos and don’ts, particularly for women. We discuss: Will time-restricted eating kill you? Deciphering recent headlinesTwo major issues happening for women: Understanding hormone cycles and an evolutionary mismatch Mindy’s expert approach to managing hormones through fasting Three rules for successfully reintroducing foods Who should avoid fasting?Tips for women over 40 that aren’t being talked about The best way to get a handle on hormone testing Fasting can be an incredibly healing practice, but it’s got to be done the right way—especially for women!

Why It is Essential to Prepare Your Bodies Before You Conceive a Baby

View the Show Notes For This Episode Get Free Weekly Health Tips from Dr. Hyman Sign Up for Dr. Hyman’s Weekly Longevity Journal Are you, or someone you know, thinking about starting a family now or in the near future? Typically, the focus on reproductive health falls on the woman, and it begins after conception has already occurred, with minimal emphasis on diet and nutrition beyond prenatal vitamins.  However, the pre-conception window is a foundational time for both partners to take charge of their hormonal, metabolic, and overall health to ensure the healthiest sperm and egg possible for a healthy pregnancy and, most importantly, a healthy baby.  In today's episode, we're discussing the essential steps both men and women can take to foster a nurturing environment for conception. We'll delve into lab tests and tools to support hormone and reproductive wellness, the challenges and insults of our modern-day lifestyles, and how we can use Functional Medicine to take a proactive approach by embracing diet, supplements, and exercise to prime couples for a successful pregnancy while safeguarding against developmental conditions like autism and ADHD that are doubling, or even tripling from one generation to the next.  Whether you're just starting to think about having kids or already on your pregnancy path, this conversation is for you.  In this episode I discuss:  The importance of the preconception window (3:15)(5:05)How epigenetics impact the preconception window (3:58)(6:01)How parent’s diet and lifestyle imprint their children’s epigenome (5:03)(6:59)Limitations of Conventional Medicine during the preconception window (9:30)(11:26)The Functional Medicine approach to preparing to conceive (12:12)Breakdown of essential nutrients and biomarkers to ensure a healthy pregnancy (15:27)Sex hormone and bonus lab tests (21:00)Optimizing blood sugar and cardiometabolic health before and during pregnancy (22:40)Foods to eat and foods to avoid while gearing up for pregnancy (23:44)Eat your foods in the correct order (protein and fat first, then carbs (36:28)Tips for reducing exposure to endocrine-disrupting chemicals (38:14)The power of exercise, stress, and sleep for a healthy pregnancy (47:24)Supplement recommendations for men and women for the preconception window (51:35) This episode is brought to you by Rupa Health and AG1.

How You've Been Lied To About Calories, Dieting, Exercise, & Losing Weight

How You've Been Lied To About Calories, Dieting, Exercise, & Losing Weight

View the Show Notes For This Episode Get Free Weekly Health Tips from Dr. Hyman Sign Up for Dr. Hyman’s Weekly Longevity Journal There are several different schools of thought behind obesity and metabolic dysfunction, for example, the energy balance model or “calories-in, calories-out” perspective that many people have felt fooled by. While calories certainly are one piece, there is much more to the puzzle of weight management and metabolic health, like hormonal cascades and oxidative stress. My guest today is Dr. Robert Lustig, an author and neuroendocrinologist with expertise in metabolism, obesity, and nutrition. He has dedicated his retirement from clinical medicine to help fix the food supply in any way he can, to reduce human suffering, and to promote a collective vision of metabolic health: protect the liver, feed the gut, support the brain.  In this episode we discuss: Is a calorie really just a calorie? (7:24)The surprising truth: All models of energy intake are a little right and a little wrong (9:20)Proven methods for reducing insulin to support weight loss (29:39)What are obesogens and how are they hijacking our metabolic health? (32:00)Reactive oxygen species and aging (and how to reduce them) (38:05)Why glucose and insulin monitoring are powerful levers for metabolic health (42:15)Summing up the facts and our beliefs around calories and weight (47:00)The cellular impact of oxidative stress and chronic stress (54:00)Monch Monch: a new fiber solution for absorbing simple sugars and preventing glucose spikes as well as increasing satiety and boosting microbial diversity (1:02:20)Food addiction in adults and children and addressing the root cause (1:10:45)What actions can we take based on scientific advances to make our lives better? (1:24:15)Why any food that feeds the gut, protects the liver, and supports the brain is a healthy food (1:33:35)Perfact and how to use it to understand what is metabolically healthy at your exact grocery store (1:40:20) This episode is brought to you by Rupa Health, Pendulum, ARMRA Colostrum, and Wonderfeel.  Streamline your lab orders with Rupa Health.

Our conversation highlights the crucial role of lab testing in uncovering the root causes of symptoms, paving the way for tailored nutrition and lifestyle interventions. Moreover, we critically examine the limitations of traditional medical approaches and discuss the nuances of hormone replacement therapy, the different forms, and who may benefit the most from this treatment. Dr. Cindy Geyer received her Bachelor of Science and her Doctor of Medicine degrees, with honors, from the Ohio State University. She completed residency in internal medicine at Strong Memorial Hospital in Rochester, N.Y. and is triple board certified in internal medicine, integrative medicine, and lifestyle medicine.
