Dr Lori Shemek | How to Fight FATflammation! Shrink the Body's Fat Cells for Lasting Weight Loss KKP 199

Visceral fat is the white fat around your organs. This shows up visibly on your body in the form of excess belly fat, love handles and extra fat around your hips. Not only is this type of fat visually unappealing, it’s VERY dangerous because this fat causes inflammation inside your body leading to chronic disease. I’ll be sharing with you the 7 worst things in the world that feed visceral fat and an early death… The first thing is microplastics…. The second thing is high fructose corn syrup. The next item is artificial sweeteners. Next we have alcohol. Next we have Seed oils. Next we have GMO foods with glyphosate. Lastly we have Chronic Stress / Lack of Sleep, RESOURCES MENTIONED IN THIS LESSON  🛒 You can find a lot of these healthier swaps on Thrive Market.

Today, I am blessed to have JJ Virgin here with me. As a triple-board certified nutrition expert and Fitness Hall of Famer, JJ is a passionate advocate of nutrition’s healing power and is mission-driven to ignite a movement of women choosing to age powerfully. After decades of watching women strive to shrink themselves, JJ is urging women to step into their power—physically and personally. Using her principles of powerful aging, she inspires women to get strong, bold, and get what they want in life. In this episode, JJ emphasizes that many people focus on minor details, like specific diets or exercises, instead of prioritizing the big rocks—the major actions that make the biggest impact. First and foremost, she advises prioritizing protein at meals, especially eating it first. Protein is metabolically expensive to digest, helps manage hunger, reduces cravings, and is crucial for building muscle. A comprehensive approach combining resistance training, high-intensity interval training (HIIT), and consistent movement is essential to optimize body fat loss and overall fitness. Full-body workouts outperform split routines for body composition, while HIIT is particularly effective at reducing visceral fat. A foundational practice is tracking daily steps, aiming for at least 8,000 steps, gradually progressing to higher intensity by adding resistance, like a rucking vest.

Today, I’m fortunate to have Dr. John Lieurance, a great friend of the show, joining us again; he’s been a frequent guest, sharing his expertise over the years. John Lieurance, ND, DC, RMA, BS, DABCN (Board Eligible), is a chiropractic neurologist and naturopath who has been in private practice for 25 years. He works at Advanced Rejuvenation, a multidisciplinary clinic focused on alternative and regenerative medicine, naturopathic medicine, chiropractic functional neurology, Functional Cranial Release (FCR), Lumomed, Lyme disease, mold illness, and various other neurological conditions. He also travels internationally, teaching other doctors. In this episode, Dr. Lieurance emphasizes the benefits of melatonin, particularly its influential role in stress resilience and anti-aging. Beyond its well-known effects on sleep, melatonin is produced in every body cell, acting as a protective mechanism against oxidative stress. As we age, melatonin levels drastically decline, which impairs our ability to repair at a cellular level. Dr. Lieurance highlights that supplementing with melatonin can extend our capacity to handle stress, promote deep relaxation, and support healthy aging. Also, we explore the fascinating properties of methylene blue, a vivid blue salt with a unique affinity for the mitochondria. This compound enhances the body's ability to absorb and utilize red and near-infrared light, which is crucial for cellular energy production. Methylene blue supports the mitochondria, improving their function by approximately 30% and acting as a neuroprotective agent. Dr. Lieurance emphasizes how the body can harness energy from photons, not just food, by absorbing light into the mitochondria. Tune in until the end of this show with Dr. Lieurance as he dives into how supporting your circadian rhythm, especially through sun exposure, can profoundly impact melatonin production. He shares insights on the power of sungazing, nitric oxide's critical role, and even melatonin's surprising benefits in detoxifying the brain. Plus, Dr. Lieurance speaks about his journey in developing advanced cranial treatments and stem cell therapies that span decades, incorporating innovative techniques from around the world, including regenerative medicine with adipose-derived stem cells that offer groundbreaking potential for conditions like tinnitus, hearing loss, and orthopedic injuries.

Today, I am blessed to have Sally K. Norton here with me. Her book, “Toxic Superfoods: How Oxalate Overload is Making You Sick-and How to Get Better” is available everywhere books are sold. Her latest book, the Data Companion to Toxic Superfoods, was just released in May 2024 and is available at https://sallyknorton.com/toxic_superfoods/data_companion. For more information, visit SallyKNorton.com or follow Sally on YouTube and social media. She’s @sknorton and @toxicsuperfoods_oxalate_book (on Instagram), @BeFreeToThrive (on Facebook), and @BetterLowOx (on X). In this episode, Sally emphasizes that several foods commonly considered healthy, such as nuts, dark leafy greens, sweet potatoes, quinoa, and even bran, may actually be harmful due to their high oxalate content. Oxalates, particularly oxalic acid found in plants, can disrupt cellular function by causing oxidative stress, inflammation, and damage to tissues. The accumulation of calcium oxalate can interfere with metabolism, vascular health, and electrolyte balance, leading to various health issues like digestive problems, joint pain, urinary tract infections, and kidney stones. Sally also explains that our modern, non-seasonal diet exacerbates this issue, as we consume these foods year-round without giving our bodies time to recover. Sally says that tea significantly contributes to oxalate intake due to its fully soluble oxalic acid content, making it both quickly absorbed and harmful. However, Sally mentions that in moderation, tea can be used medicinally to help the body manage oxalate release from tissues. She advises that dietary changes should be gradual, allowing the body time to adjust to avoid overwhelming it. She emphasizes that dealing with oxalate accumulation is a long-term process influenced by individual nutrition and lifestyle factors. Sally advises that low oxalate carbs, such as white rice, are generally well-tolerated, especially for those with gut inflammation. She notes that white rice has resistant starch, which may be problematic for those with severe digestive issues. Cutting out fiber can also reduce pain and inflammation, making a carnivore diet appealing to some. Sally also highlights that juicing fruits, especially those high in oxalates like raspberries and pomegranates, can significantly reduce their oxalate content. She recommends eating nutrient-dense animal foods, taking breaks from constant grazing, and returning to traditional meal times for metabolic freedom.

Protein is arguably the MOST important macronutrient for fat loss and longevity. Approximately 40% of American adults are not meeting their protein needs. There are early warning signs that begin to appear when you’re not eating enough protein, in this video I’ll be sharing all 9 of them. I will also address the most common questions about getting enough protein, and of course the solution to making sure you get enough of this important macronutrient.  The first warning sign is cravings for junk food. The protein leverage hypothesis states that human beings will prioritize the consumption of protein in food over other dietary components, and will eat until protein needs have been met, regardless of energy content,[1] thus leading to over-consumption of foodstuffs when their protein content is low. This hypothesis has been put forward as a potential explanation of the obesity epidemic. Empirical tests have provided some evidence to confirm the hypothesis with one study suggesting that this could be a link between ultra-processed foods and the prevalence of obesity in the developed world. In 1995, Australian researcher Susanna Holt developed the concept of satiety value, a measure of how much a given food is likely to satisfy the hunger of someone. High protein foods have been found to have high satiety values, more so than carbohydrates.  When you eat enough protein you activate hormones and chemicals that signal to your brain and body… you’re full! This prevents you from overeating junk food, and snacking in between meals. Helping you of course lose weight. These hormones that get activated with protein are Cholecystokinin, leptin, peptide yy. Here’s how this works. Analogy of eating steak and then the dessert tray rolls by. There are more reasons why lack of protein leads to junk food binges… RESOURCES MENTIONED: Equip Foods: Beef protein powder and colostrum. 100% grass fed and finished beef.

Today, I’m blessed to welcome back Dr. Ken Berry, who has joined us on the show before to share his invaluable insights. He is a family physician, speaker, and author based in Nashville, Tennessee, U.S. Dr. Berry received a Bachelor of Science degree, with honors, in Animal Biology and Psychology, from Middle Tennessee State University, in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, in 1996. He received his MD from the University of Tennessee Health Science Center in Memphis, Tennessee, in 2000. In this episode, Dr. Ken Berry advocates for the carnivore diet as one of the best dietary approaches for longevity due to its very low carbohydrate content, ability to reduce inflammation, and effectiveness in triggering satiety hormones. He argues that meat from domesticated animals is among the least inflammatory foods available, unlike plants, which have evolved chemical defense mechanisms that can cause inflammation in humans. Dr. Ken Berry says the carnivore diet is a powerful tool for those with autoimmune diseases, explaining that such conditions arise from a confused and misdirected immune system, not an "overactive" one. He criticizes conventional medical approaches that focus on suppressing the immune system rather than addressing the root causes of inflammation, often found in dietary choices. Many doctors fail to check A1C and fasting insulin levels, which can lead to missed early diagnoses of type 2 diabetes, resulting in years of preventable damage to the body. The problem stems from the reliance on fasting blood glucose tests alone, which can appear normal even in patients with dangerously high A1C levels.
