How Footballers are Winning Euro 2024 with Cutting-Edge Biohacks feat. Jane Tarrant #506

Happy stomachs feature this week.  Recently I put something in my weekly blog that became the most clicked on link I've ever included in my '3 zesty things' newsletter (sign up at www.tonywrighton.com if interested). So this podcast is all about my quest to find out why it was such a popular link, why it captured the imagination so much, and why so many people were interested in a link about gut health. Dr. Zach Bush came up with the concept behind the link. He's a triple-certified so knows a thing or two about gut health. He's a Triple Certified physician, Scientist, Biologist, University lecturer and more. And he made an incredible discovery in his research...

I've been intermittent fasting for a while now and definitely notice the benefits energy-wise. But I'm a proper fasting lightweight compared to today's Zestology guest. Fasting is a real theme on Zestology, so many experts seem to recommend the benefits of not eating every once in a while. So I got in touch with Loren Lockman. He is the director of the TanglewoodwellnessCenter.com and has been coaching people to better health since 1992, and supervising water only fasts since 1997. He's guided more than 2000 people through water-only fasts averaging 24-25 days and has seen countless "miracles" over the years. So what are these "miracles"? Listen on to find out.

We check our smartphones hundreds of times a day. 53% of people say they waste at least an hour at work every day, and most of their distractions are digital. So are you distracted by digital? Addicted to tech? It's time to stop, take a breath, and hit the reset button in a big way. The techlash has started.. Phil White is a good person to talk to about this - he's the author of Unplugged... and provides a blueprint for using technology to meet your health and performance goals in a much smarter way. ​Here's a good quote from Phil: "In our culture many of us have come to view sleep as a time-sucking inconvenience. We're trying to run our lives with precise efficiency like the Henry Ford assembly line, and cram as much into each day as possible. As a result, our sleep gets short shrift. A recent NPR story revealed that 37 percent of Americans don't get adequate rest. This means that more than a third of us are wandering around like blurry eyed zombies. For athletes that's a real problem. When you exercise you not only break down tissues that sleep repairs, but also place strain on your nervous, musculo-skeletal and many other systems that don't work without enough shut-eye. And it's not just the duration of sleep that's important (it's hard to make a case for less than seven and a half hours), but also the quality."

We talk beating jet lag the natural way on this podcast, then we look at hypnosis, workouts, blocking blue light in the evening and lots more. And I'm hanging out with friend of the podcast and absolute authority on all things health, Ryan Munsey. His new book is called… very provocatively called F*ck Your Feelings. Make sure you check it out - it's out today and I'm sure will be great. We recorded this for both Zestology and Ryan's podcast. Enjoy.

One of the world's foremost relationship experts is on Zestology today - Esther Perel. If you haven't seen her TED talks, do yourself a favour, get googling and come back to me in half an hour. Her take on bickering is especially good. I was grateful to meet Esther Perel recently and interview her for Zestology and Balance mag. I think the interview is useful listening for anyone in a relationship (or wanting to be in one).  In this Valentine's week I think this podcast might be one of the most important I've recorded. This podcast could help you. Enjoy.

It was great to meet Joe Wicks recently, in conjunction with the awesome Balance magazine. His latest book, The Fat-Loss Plan, came out on Boxing Day. Joe is changing the lives and shapes of gazillions of Brits - he's the author of the UK's biggest-selling diet books since records began and he keeps building his fanbase. His philosophy about both diet and exercise is to keep it simple. "People try and change too much at once, and it never works. Pick something that you can do 15 minutes a day, rather than one hour a week." Which is solid advice. I always feel better when I do a little exercise, than on a day when I do none. Bearing that in mind, you might want to listen to the whole interview now.
