Metabolic Freedom With Ben Azadi

Today, I am blessed to have you here with me Chris Irvin. He is a researcher of health and an educator whose sole focus is on low-carb and keto diets and their effects on health and human performance. He is also a writer and the author of Keto Answers, Mommy Do I Have to Eat This?  💻 4 Secrets to Keto Masterclass: https://www.ketokamp.com/keto-masterclass-1 Chris and I first connected online and did a podcast. The first time we ever met in person was during KetoCon.  Chris is also a player of basketball and he often plays two to three times a week. He mentioned that exercise should be something that you enjoy doing, rather than being a punishment. As he plays basketball, it is usually equivalent to five to six miles of working which is already considered a high-intensity workout. If this was running, he wouldn't be able to enjoy it and he'll most likely quit once he is tired. In this episode, the podcast started about sports and exercise. Chris eventually discussed the Keto diet and its current state of popularity. He also talks about the benefits and importance of Keto. The difference between fat and keto adaptations was also discussed in this episode.

Exercise should be something you enjoy doing, instead of being a punishment. When you do something you enjoy for exercise, you'll be able to get anywhere. It may even be a high-intensity style of training. When you do an exercise that you do not enjoy, you will push yourself up to the limit and stop once you’re tired. [10:26] Is there a decrease in Keto's popularity as a diet? Keto or Ketogenic diet has been cyclical over the last five years. In Google trends, it often maxes out at some time of the year and would decrease on the rest of the year. Some people only use Keto as a tool to achieve a certain goal. They would transition to another diet once that goal is reached. In 2018, Keto was popular and people, influencers, and companies were leaning into it.  Some influencers who were into Keto before are no longer promoting and doing the Keto diet. [14:30] How Does Keto Diet Help a Person? Keto is a great way to get into when you are trying to lose weight. The presence of the weight loss process is better than not having it.  You don't need to be on a Keto diet 24/7.  When you know about the metabolic processes and the things that happen with Keto, you'll realize that being on a Keto diet from time to time will provide tons of benefits – both short and long-term. [18:05] How Long Should a Person Be In Ketosis? Metabolic health is important. It can be considered a center of health in general. If you are trying to improve your metabolic markers, try to follow Keto Diet for 30 days and get your blood work after. If you see some improvements, you can continue the diet or you can also transition to Low Carb diet.  You can also try to continue the Keto diet until you reach the desired metabolic markers. However, if you aren't feeling great, then you must switch to another diet. [25:36] The Difference Between Fat & Keto Adaptation and their effects on the Body Keto and Fat adaptation are often used interchangeably. However, there's a difference between them, especially in how it processes in the body. If you are fat-adapted, you have low blood sugar and insulin which enables you to burn fat. When you're burning fat, you are releasing stored fatty acids from your fat cells into the bloodstream and using them for energy. In Keto adaptation, you are using Ketones as an energy source.  Brains are the best users of Ketones. The body often preserves Ketones for the Brain to use as an energy source. [31:30] What are the Benefits of Getting Keto Adapted? Oftentimes, people will experience benefits and effects after weeks of Keto Adaptation. However, it varies from person to person depending on where you're coming from. Some problems encountered in Keto adaptation include stopping it after achieving your desired weight. Most people who decided to continue despite reaching their goals are experiencing a new level of benefits. [45:52] Metabolic Health Should Be Your Main Focus Metabolic Health isn’t just focused on the diet. It is also about exercise, sleep, stress management, and more. It is more than just being Keto or Carbs. To change and improve your Metabolic Health, you change your behaviors, and mindset, and be able to become consistent. AND MUCH MORE!

Are there pros and cons to using it?   ·       NAD exists inside the body and is necessary for the body to do what it needs. ·       It is the building blocks that the body creates or recycles and then gets into the cell. Without NAD, the body doesn't know how to break it down and get it into the cells. To communicate with the body, we need to communicate in its cascade of responses and have the body figure out what it needs to do.  ·       NAD is the result of the end process of something; the result and the end of it would be fill-in-the-blank. ·       The problem with supplementing on NAD precursor, NAD building blocks, is that it has a hierarchy of what organ they meet first and what organ the body prioritizes. ·       NAD precursor building blocks to methyl groups are interchangeable so it would be good. Most of the energy will stay in the liver, while the rest will go to muscles, the heart, and the brain.   ·       The most important details in this text are that it is important to have NAD precursors absorbed directly into the skin and taken by the skin. NAD is more like potential energy than potential energy.   [19:29] The Look of Skin and Why Skin Health Matters  ·       Auto luminescence in the skin can be used to infer the person's health; in general, the skin signals sexual vibrancy in youth as we grow older past that point. If these organs are not functioning correctly, it can affect our skin's appearance, such as acne, collagen production, etc.  ·       When we grow, the skin becomes more and more a protective organ, more and more an organ that is more like a barrier, more like taking the brunt of our exposure to environmental stressors, such as UV, pollution, and EMF. This can lead to hyperpigmentation and senescent cells, malfunctioning cells that can become cancerous and dangerous.   ·       Zombie cells are troublemakers because they infect other cells, don't contribute to the organism, and only create inflammation. It contributes to whole-body aging, as the skin is one of the organs exposed to the environment.   ·   Aging is a snowball, where in the beginning, we are creating damage to the skin and aging in the skin, but it eventually comes back to bite us.   [26:05] The Mechanism Between the Skin and The Hypothalamus Pituitary  ·       The skin is directly connected to the hypothalamus-pituitary axis, which is responsible for relaying environmental stressors. ·       Senescence cells, melanocytes, pigment-creating cells, immune cells, and cells are our blood cells in the skin, or the cells around our blood vessels, creating inflammation.  ·       When there is a big disruption in the body, these senescence cells inflame to send inflammation markers back to the brain. This is not supposed to happen if the body is healthy and youthful.   ·       The most important details in this text are the disruption in hormone signaling and inflammation in the brain, which can lead to brain fog, impaired decision-making, and decision fatigue. [33:32] Healthy Metabolism and What You Should Notice in the Skin ·     Skin tags signify that we are in an anabolic state, which can lead to type two diabetes. If someone has skin tags, it is a sign that they are too much in mTOR, so they should see a doctor. ·       The most important details in this text are that dark circles are caused by glycation or AGS end products. AGS is a reaction that we get from consuming sugar, and they disrupt the function of proteins in the skin and break them out. ·       This leads to the accumulation of wrinkles, which is caused by the inability of the skin to repair the movement of collagen, which is like a dry rubber. The more rigid the skin, the more wrinkles we'll see.   ·       The most important details in this text are that skin rigidity is caused by glycation, and the more rigid the skin is, the more glycation or AGS have wreaked havoc on the skin. ·   This causes the skin to become thinner and lose its structure, leading to dark circles and puffiness. Additionally, the ratio of AEGs, the skin cells or proteins, is slightly higher, which is how puffiness is created. [40:15] Loose skin after weight loss? Is there a way to tighten it?  ·       Loose skin after pregnancy or weight loss is irreversible, and surgery is necessary to treat it. If it is just loose skin, some things can be done to tighten it, such as micro-needling or inflammation. ·       Intermittent fasting is also a great way to lose weight. ·       Micro-needling involves rolling a micro derma roller on the skin, which releases oxidative stress from the mitochondria and causes low-level inflammation.  ·       Red and near-infrared light is thought to lower inflammation, but the main effect is releasing oxidative stress. ·       People need to understand that they were deprived of nutrients through their weight loss journey and that their ability to mind the P's and Q's mind, the little aspects of nutrition, is limited. [50:35] How may a change in lifestyle help you get rid of acne?   ·       Raw dairy can cause acne because it feeds pee acne bacteria, which is the bacteria that causes acne.  ·       To combat this, consuming more dairy and using probiotics such as serene skin and specific probiotics for skin health is important.  ·       Qualia skin is a supplement for skin health; both are important for skin health in general. ·       We need to eliminate the inflammation associated with acne by using green tea vital serum, which is both anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial. This serum has been designed to prove red light therapy but is also anti-inflammatory. ·       Retinol is bound to biomimetic lipids that normally comprise the skin barrier, making it as strong as a prescription but without any drawbacks like peeling, irritation, or skin irritation. ·       Acne is caused by the inability to drive toxins out of the skin due to less lymphatic movement and accumulating layers of skin. When stressed, retinol can make the skin irritated or flaky. AND MUCH MORE!

He believes that our bodies will heal when giving the right conditions to do so and that small consistent choices lead to big lasting results! In this episode, Devin talks about why prioritizing your sleep will help you win the day. Then, he jumps into the role sleep plays in your mental and physical health. Without quality sleep, we often feel angry, frustrated, and irritable. Devin explains how you can improve your sleep, which will, in turn, improve your mood. Tune in as we chat about optimizing REM and deep sleep, how to create a bedtime buffer, and why eating before bed is a bad idea.

Also, during sleep, your body will store hormones and burn fat. Sleep will let you make better decisions for the next day. When you're sleep-deprived, your ability to make good decisions goes out the window. REM sleep is recharging your brain, and it allows us to make good decisions. When the prefrontal cortex is energized and refreshed, we can make great choices throughout the day.  [05:10] Mental Health: What Role Does Sleep Play? If you have ever been chronically sleep-deprived, you know how mentally terrible you feel. When we are not taking care of our mental health, it leads us back to making poor decisions. A lack of sleep can make us irritable, angry, frustrated, and even lead to road rage. Also, with a lack of sleep, your reaction time gets decreased. [11:20] What Is REM Sleep and How Much Do I Need? There are so many factors that go into how much REM sleep you need. 20% – 25% of your sleep should be deep, and the same goes for REM. Sleep is dynamic. You need to figure out how much REM sleep is optimal for you. If you wake up and you feel refreshed, mentally and physically, that's a good sign that you're getting enough REM sleep. [15:00] Why Do We Sleep, Anyway? It’s Great For Your Physical Body! Sleep helps with physical restoration. Growth hormones are released throughout the night. Sleep deprivation will actually impact the man’s testicle size. Devin recommends reading Why We Sleep: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06Y649387/benazadi-20 Deep sleep happens during the first quarter of the night. During deep sleep, your body is cleaning the cells. When you're not getting enough sleep, that throws off your insulin which leads to food cravings and food addiction. [18:30] You’re Not Getting Quality Sleep. That’s A Problem For Your Cortisol.    Cortisol naturally should be highest in the morning. When you’re not getting enough sleep, your cortisol levels will stay high. If you’re not getting quality sleep, hormones are dysregulated. Then, your blood sugar will go all over the place. So, you crave sugar! When glucose goes up, ketones go down. [21:20] Caffeine’s Surprising Connection To Sleep Problems Caffeine blocks the adenosine receptors. The more caffeine you drink, the less you are letting your body rest. Caffeine gets in the way of getting quality sleep. When you’re not getting quality sleep, you’re in sleep debt. Plus, caffeine will dysregulate your circadian rhythm. People metabolize caffeine at different rates in different ways. [27:45] Sleep Tips: Create A Bedtime Buffer Between Day and Night Having a buffer of time between your day and your night is very important. The most important transition of the day is the transition from your actual day to the night. When you have a buffer, then you won’t bring your stress to bed. Taking a walk is a great buffer. You can also do a hobby as a buffer like playing music, learning something, or reading. [34:00] Why Eating Before Bedtime Is Actually A Bad Idea   Your body doesn’t want food right before bed. You shouldn’t eat three to four hours before bedtime. However, it also depends on how fast you metabolize. Eating late will absolutely affect your sleep. Make sure to go to sleep in a fasted state. It’s challenging for busy people. However, it’s something that you can work on every day. [36:00] How To Optimize REM Sleep and Deep Sleep Incline sleeping can improve deep sleep. Sleeping on a 5 to 7-degree incline has been found to increase glymphatic drainage. It's not so much what you do. It's what you don't do. For instance, don’t eat! Also, don’t take vitamin D before bed. Sleeping in a cold room is great for deep sleep.

Today, I am blessed to have Anna Vocino with me. Anna Vocino is the founder of Eat Happy Kitchen and the author of two best-selling cookbooks. She is passionate about good organic food, high quality, no sugar added, and she sticks to a low-carb diet.  After being diagnosed with Celiac Disease in 2002, Anna made it her mission to create easy-to-prepare, delicious gluten-free, sugar-free, and grain-free versions of her favorite comfort foods. Today, she has published more than 300 recipes between her two cookbooks, hundreds more on her blog (annavocino.com), and now, even more, can be found inside her recently released Marinara Meals. In this episode, Anna Vocino talks about Gluten, living a gluten-free lifestyle, harmful ingredients, and why laughter is the best medicine. Anna Vocino dives into healthy recipe alternatives, easy healthy recipes, and how too much consumption of sugar can be harmful for us. Tune in as we chat about Gluten, living a gluten-free lifestyle, harmful ingredients, and why laughter is the best medicine.

It is recommended to look at the ingredients of products. [21:09] How to Encourage Your Kids to Live a Healthier Lifestyle Parents shouldn't push their agenda on anyone. Instead, they should model good behavior and habits. Keto is only for some. Families should take into consideration if it's applicable or if there are members of the family have certain medical conditions. [30:17] Avoid These Ingredients At All Costs If You Are Doing Keto Any sugar is still sugar. It's best to use the least amount of sugar to make food rather than artificial sweetener. Gums and seed oils are ingredients that go through several chemical processes with deodorizers, which are bad for a person's health. Americans have a sweeter-pro palette due to many foods containing so many sugars, which makes them addictive. Grass-fed meats, pastured chickens, and eggs are cost-prohibitive for most people, but it is a better alternative for people and the Earth. [47:55] The Surprising Health Benefits of Laughter Changing your diet to a low-carb way of eating can improve brain chemistry. Oxytocin is a type of Endorphin produced from laughter and joy that makes a person healthier. Protect your space and boundaries by removing toxic people from your environment, as it affects your actions and results. Negative emotions come from things we don't like or don't expect, and you will experience them from time to time. What's important is changing your emotional response to things. AND MUCH MORE!

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Dr Jay T. Wiles. He is the co-founder and Chief Scientific Officer at Hanu Health. Dr Jay is also a prominent expert in mental health optimization, HRV, and biofeedback.  Dr Jay is a clinical health and performance psychologist. He has a master's degree in clinical therapy and then went on to his doctoral degree in clinical psychology. When he was in his residency, he and his co-workers were exposed to a toxic black mold. This led him to be more interested in health, wellness, and integrative holistic health.  Since then, his residency in the Department of Veteran Affairs grew his desire to study heart rate variability and biofeedback and how it relates to Nervous System Monitoring and functioning.  In 2018, Dr Jay launched his consulting company, which is utilized by elite athletes, high-performance executives, and CEOs to understand data from wearables while learning how to manage their nervous systems using tools and procedures.  His firm, Hanu, was founded in 2021. It is a digital mental health platform that uses wearable technology to track changes in the human stress response. They then train resilience through various techniques.   In this episode, Dr Jay speaks about heart rate variability and its relation to the nervous system. Dr Jay talks about how to gauge parasympathetic balance. Tune in as we chat about Heart Rate Variability, Nervous System, Stress, Parasympathetic Balance, measuring HRV, Pre-Meal Breathwork Sessions, and many more. Get your Hanu Health device, 20% off!

Don’t Worry. Nervous System is Adapting!  -       Heart rate and heart rate variability are not the same things. We may acquire a decent insight by evaluating both of them. -       Heart rate variability is similar to examining heart rate through a microscope. -       The heart does not beat to the beat of a metronome. In reality, it rapidly accelerates and decelerates. -       Heart rate variability examines temporal variations or variance, which is the difference in time between each succeeding heartbeat. -       Increased Heart Rate Variability indicates that the nervous system is adaptable; it can assimilate information within its surroundings and adjust. [14:17] Stress is Not Bad, Just Be Adaptable and Regulate Your Nervous System  -       Remember that HRV as a metric does not often behave the same way as many other metrics that serve as the normative basis of comparison. - Several conflicting elements contribute to HRV being what it is. When we compare two people's heart rate variability, it's like comparing apples and oranges. -       A decrease in heart rate variability indicates that the nervous system is too busy and is having a tough time changing and adapting to its surroundings. -       If we are not regulating our nervous system response, as seen by a reduction in heart rate variability, it undoubtedly aggravates any other forms of physiological abnormalities. [19:20] What Is the Best Way to Gauge the Parasympathetic Balance?  -       There are other methods available, but they are often more intrusive. -       Another approach would be to examine general brainwave functioning and changes in brainwave states. -       We have so much evidence in the scientific literature that heart rate variability is now the single best non-invasive technique to have a proxy for nervous system functioning and balance. -       Many people experience nervous system assaults throughout the day, increasing over time. If they are unaware of what is going on, and especially if they are not managing their reaction at that period, we observe the emergence of a host of various mental and physical health problems. -       What we can truly do is train our neurological systems to behave in a more adaptable manner, which will make us happier. [30:17] Using the Device to Measure HRV? Look At the Stress Resiliency Number  -       The Stress Resiliency Number is a 0 to 100 number that takes all of your data and plots it on a 0 to 100 scale. -       If you don’t understand how to interpret HRV, Stress Resiliency Number is a great number to look at. -       Your goal is to get yourself above that 80 to 100 thresholds, which is like our green zone. -       As the HRV goes down, so does your Stress Resiliency Number. [41:59] Digest Your Meal Better, Do A Pre-Meal Breathwork Session  -       It's a biofeedback session to help stimulate your parasympathetic nervous system and the vagus nerve prior to a meal. -       If we go into a meal and eat in a sympathetically driven state, it will cause immense dysbiosis and dysregulation of the gut. -       Do a very short practice, 60 seconds to two minutes of a breathwork session that we call pre-meal. And we also do it post-meal to start that process. -       When people do the breathwork session, their meal does not have nearly as much of an input influence on the metabolically, so we do not see significant amounts of blood sugar rise. Plus, people's nervous system recovers quickly. -       It is imperative to do something parasympathetically stimulating or stimulating our vagus nerve before and after eating. [59:09] Having A Bad Performance Anxiety? Calm Down, Focus and Work to Increase Your HRV -       One major issue that people have is experiencing bad performance anxiety during biofeedback sessions, which causes them to feel agitated and lowers their HRV. -       Don't be discouraged; this is an excellent learning opportunity for you. Address and work on the problem. -       Any upward direct movement is beneficial since it indicates that the nervous system is actively engaged. But what we want to do is gradually raise it over time. -       Work to figure out where you are, and then just go forward. Simply strive to improve by 1% every day, just as you would in any other aspect of your life. AND MUCH MORE!

We talk about how making significant changes can be uncomfortable, but Tara wants you to remember that discomfort is only temporary. Tara explains why you need to align with your truth. Plus, we chat about the reasons why you don’t want to be in ketosis your entire life. Tune in as we dive into the importance of salt, ditching your carbophobia, and how to start implementing carbs back into your lifestyle. This episode originally aired in December 2021.

She felt sad and depressed as a stay-at-home mom.  Tara started weightlifting because the gym by her house only had weights and treadmills.  After lifting weights for eight months, Tara looked exactly the same. So, she decided to switch her nutrition – she went from 40% body fat to 11% body fat.  Then, Tara found keto. She felt healthy in both her mind and her body.  [11:20] The Discomfort That You Have To Go Through Is Temporary The life of your dreams is a life of alignment with yourself and your authentic self. Exercising and diet is a temporary stressor.  You aren’t going to be stressed forever.  The actions required for you to gain muscle is going to suck. However, your body is excellent at retaining muscle. So, the discomfort is temporary.  How you see yourself matters way more than how everyone else sees you.  [17:30] Why You Need To Align With Your Truth Most people know that they need to stop exercising and sleep more. If you have hypothyroidism, you're super inflamed, your CRP is off the charts, and you're exhausted, then yes, you need to sleep more! Training is inflammatory, and if you’re already inflamed, there will be problems.  You already know what you need to do; listen to your body. Trust your feelings.  [21:15] Why You Don’t Want To Be In Ketosis For Your Entire Life If you love being in ketosis, you can stay in it for as long as you want.  If keto doesn’t feel as good as it used to, then you may want to switch things up.  Keto impacts our neurotransmitters and our mental health. When you eat a diet that is mostly fat and protein, your body will favor dopamine production.  When you eat a diet that's mostly carbs and protein, you will favor serotonin production.  If you're not eating carbs, you're not going to favor serotonin production as much.  One of the reasons you should carb cycle is to improve your emotions and mood.  [31:20] Guess What? Insulin Isn’t The Enemy!  If you don’t have high blood sugar, then insulin isn’t the enemy. Insulin is an energy shuttling hormone. It takes glucose and places it in our bodies.  We can store anywhere from 350 up to 800 grams of carbohydrates in our liver and muscles.  Athletes can eat a lot of carbohydrates and not be obese because of the energy they are using.  If you aren’t exercising, your body will store carbohydrates as fat storage.  [36:00] Tara Always Trains When She Is Fasted – Here’s Why Tara always trains fasted; it’s great for your metabolism. If you are healthy, you should be able to train fasted in the morning. If you can’t train fasted, then you have some work to do with your blood sugar regulation.  Tara will thrive off of adrenaline during a fasted workout. Eating will bring your adrenaline down.  [39:20] Adrenals and Salt: The Importance of Sodium On Keto If you don't have enough salt on keto, your kidneys will excrete aldosterone, and then you'll start to have high adrenaline and high cortisol long-term. Rushing women syndrome is a hallmark of adrenal stress.  If you’re not okay with sitting still and being calm, then you have adrenal stress.  Also, if you feel overwhelmed, then you have adrenal fatigue.  So, make sure to monitor your salt intake.  [43:55] Are You Scared of Carbs? How To Address Carbophobia  We have to foster a healthy mindset around the fact that you're not eating carbs when you're doing keto. Carbs are not going to kill you.  China has an obesity rate of 5 to 6%, they eat more rice than any other country in the world.  In America, we have a 42.4% obesity rate. It’s not just carbs that are making you fat.  Carbohydrates are not inherently bad for us. It’s what happened to our metabolism from sitting all day, overconsumption, and processed foods.  [50:20] When You Should Start Implementing Carbohydrates   During keto, if you don’t feel that great anymore, it’s time to start eating carbs again.  If you’re working out more, you can start using carbohydrates to fuel your body and workouts.  If you’re not sleeping well and have diarrhea, you should introduce carbohydrates again. Being moody is also a sign that you need to add carbohydrates.  AND MUCH MORE!

That greatly impacts what's going on in the digestive tract. -       Lipopolysaccharide is a cell wall component of gram-negative bacteria.  When bacteria break down and die, bits of their cell wall remains, and this LPS can enter your bloodstream and trigger inflammation. -       Gram-negative bacteria are potential indicators of Parkinson's and other diseases. -       A blood test is the easiest way to know if you have high levels of LPS. -       Other than LPS, bacteria produce proteins or peptides, which can cause autoimmune diseases. [14:59] You are Being Killed by Your Immune System Response, Not The Pathogen!  -       When you get an LPS challenge, you can become LPS tolerant. -       It's your immune system response that kills you, not the pathogen itself. -       The more and more traffic that builds up slowly with that LPs, the more problems you start to see. -       Mitohormesis and LPS can both can reprogram macrophages. [24:11] Do You Love Fruits? Eat In the Right Time and Build Your Metabolism  -       When the season arrives and fruit ripens, you need to eat some fruit. -       In this day and age, fruits are always available, and we might always be tempted to eat them. That is something we want to avoid doing. -       The goal is to build that metabolism to introduce fruit. -       There's just everything in moderation. [29:52] Sugar Shift Formula: Helping People into Ketosis and Improve Blood Sugar  -       The sugar shift probiotic formula helps people get into ketosis and improve their blood sugar. -       The result of the clinical trial is that the group taking the formula stabilized their HBA1C while the group that did not continue to rise. -        There was a marked drop in both 90 Day and 80-day marks in the serum lipopolysaccharide. -       In indigenous populations, breastfed babies will carry a specific Bifido and fanta strain, a single colony that trains the immune system. [42:09] How Long Does It Take for the Gut Microbiome to Recover From Taking Antibiotics? -       Microbiome NEVER recovers from a macrolide. -       You have more problems with the resistance that's left behind than you have with antibiotics. -       People don't realize how much antibiotics are in the food supply. -       All pre-packaged convenience food contains anti-enzymatic things.

Avoid highly processed sugars, the leading cause of liver transplants, and highly processed grains and flour. [19:10] Your Body Responds Positively to Diversity in Many Different Areas ·       The human body was made to eat all different things, be it meat or leafy vegetables, to receive a well-balanced diet. ·       The microbiome flourishes when fed different vegetable plants or called alpha diversity. ·       The better the variety you get, be it a protein, fruit, or vegetable source, the better our bodies thrive. [23:01] Movement: Simplest and Most Effective way to Have a Better Functioning Metabolism  ·       People should move their bodies daily in some way, shape, or form.  ·       There is a direct correlation between the time we spend seated and the incidence of all chronic diseases. ·       Brain-derived neurotrophic factor, or BDNF, gets released with exercise that increases our mental capacity, creativity, and memory. ·       Resistance training significantly impacts working against Age-Dependent Sarcopenia or losing muscles as people grow older. Muscle mass is needed to prevent chronic diseases and for a faster metabolism. [29:05] Optimize Your Sleep. Reset Your Hormones with a Good Night's Sleep ·       The glymphatic system is the system of the brain responsible for flushing out toxins through sleeping or autophagy.  ·  The first few minutes of the morning and some natural sunlight are important to get a good night's sleep.   ·       Do not eat 3 hours before bed, stay away from any devices 2 hours before bed, and have a consistent bedtime. ·       Getting a good night's sleep resets a person's hormones.  [34:41] Get Your Gut Healthy and Optimize the Stress in Your Life Having a healthy gut allows you to optimize your diet while taking care of all the other things. You're optimizing both your movement and your sleeping pattern. ·       According to a 2012 study, the first finding is the people that had very high stress; some of them had an increased risk of dying and comorbidities, while a subset of the group had some protective effect from stress. ·       The practice of breathing and exercise can change a person's physiology.
