Dr Ralph Esposito, Natural Ways to Boost Testosterone, Favorite Benefits of Intermittent Fasting, Signs of Too Much Fasting :KKP 109

On today's show, we have a naturopathic physician, acupuncturist, and functional medicine practitioner specializing in integrative urology, men’s health, and nutrigenomics, Dr. Ralph Esposito. His precise and personalized style utilizes a systems biology and precision medicine approach to medicine. In addition to advising as a peer reviewer for medical journals, he has authored several medical textbook chapters. He has designed education modules for health professionals specifically on urological conditions, male and female hormone dysfunction, hypogonadism, exercise, men’s health, and sexual dysfunction. Dr. Esposito has trained under Dr. Peter D’Adamo, the originator of Opus23®, at the Center of Excellence in Generative Medicine at the University of Bridgeport, and NYU Integrative and Functional Urology Center. He holds a position as an adjunct professor at New York University, where he lectures on integrative medicine. Currently, Dr. Esposito serves as a medical consultant and research analyst. In this episode, Dr. Esposito opens the show by diving deep into his background. Then, he reveals what may be causing low testosterone levels in men and common ways to test for the issues. Dr. Esposito describes ways in which men can raise their testosterone levels, including exercise, sleep, and nutrition. Stay tuned as Dr. Esposito names the best exercises to boost testosterone – plus, he gives his take on time restrictive eating and ways to tell if you are overdoing it. . Free Fasting Webinar: http://www.benazadiwebinar.com . Keto Kamp Kits: http://www.ketokampkit.com . [00:20] About Dr. Ralph Esposito Esposito watched as his father became medically disabled and heavily medicated. The threat of a family history of chronic disease was a major contributing factor to why he chose to pursue naturopathic medicine when conventional medicine alone was not working. Ralph credits Dr. Geo Espinosa for his mentorship and for allowing him to work with him at the NYU integrative and functional urology center for almost seven years. Esposito continued his work with Dr. Espinosa in research, writing, and education modules. This experience led him to his current position as a medical consultant and research analyst for medical practice in New York. [03:45] The Culprits of Low Testosterone Levels in Men Is the brain sending a message to the testes to make testosterone? If they get the message, are they making the testosterone? What is the body doing with the testosterone afterward? Once you figure out these answers, then you can figure out the underlying cause. Sleep deprivation and chronic stressors can contribute to low testosterone. A lot of athletes can have issues in the testes and the brain after years of trauma. It’s not so black and white what could be causing the issue. [07:40] Testing Male Hormones Ralph will test for various male hormones – including the thyroid hormone. Without the thyroid hormone, you will not be able to produce testosterone. Physicians are misreading labs because they do not understand statistics. How are your hormone levels changing over time? Heavy metals can impair libido. Dr. Ralph’s patients will come to them with heavy metals and complaints about a lack of libido. [12:00] Using Drugs to Test Testosterone Drugs are the last option. Clomiphene is an estrogen modulator – it blocks the estrogen receptors in the brain. If their testosterone does not go up, there is an issue in the testes. [15:30] High Estrogen and Low Testosterone High estrogen and low testosterone are signs of metabolic dysfunction. Environmental toxins can cause this. In the past week, Dr. Ralph has read four articles about how the environment is disrupting our health. The most common reason for high estrogen is high insulin levels. [17:40] Boosting Testosterone You have to start with the foundations: Exercise Sleep Nutrition Putting ice on your testes will not increase the levels. You could potentially damage them. If you’re not sleeping seven hours, then you are not releasing the proper hormones. Plus, you won’t be able to recover. Exercise is a stressor. Sleep is essential when you are constantly exercising. A high carb diet is a sure proof way to damage your testosterone levels. Insulin is a proinflammatory. Exercise will help your body efficiently produce testosterone. There is data on using DHEA as a supplement to increase testosterone. Ralph doesn’t treat himself – always take the guidance of a practitioner. [23:35] Exercising to Boost Testosterone Ralph does the Big Five: Deadlift Squat Pullup Bench press Rows Work out your back, legs, and chest. Duration and frequency will release cortisol. Marathon runners are in a catabolic state. They are breaking down a lot more than they are building up. Sprinting is also a great exercise. [27:00] The Benefits of Time-Restrictive Eating Time-restrictive feeding is only eating within certain windows. Intermittent fasting is going multiple days without food. Gut rest is the most significant benefit to time-restrictive eating. Bacteria will thrive in a fasted state. The gut rest will allow you to heal. The cell turnover rate is very fast in the gut. Time-restrictive eating will also make you more sensitive to insulin. Brain function will also improve with time-restrictive eating. [30:00] Are You Fasting Too Much? You are fasting too much if your thyroid hormone is suppressed. Low motivation to exercise and low libido are issues. You could be stressing your system. Cold fingers and feet, weak hair, thinning eyebrow hair are other symptoms. Poor muscle recovery is another issue with fasting too much. [32:00] The Difference Between Cutting Calories and Time Restrictive Eating Caloric restriction is the idea behind most diets. Fasting has a completely different impact. Food is sending a message to the body. You can change the messaging in your body by exercising and meditation. Food is influential to our biology. Calories matter, but they aren’t as important. [36:00] About Dr. Ralph’s Lifestyle Ralph exercises in the afternoon and eats after he works out. If Dr. Ralph works out in the morning, he eats after the workout and starts his unfed time. Ralph is doing a CrossFit type of training and traditional weight training. Ralph moves every single day – he never sits on the couch for an entire day. [41:35] What To Do If You Plateaued Diversify your diet. There’s a lot to learn about our microbiome. Your diet within 48 hours can diversify your biome and the response in your body. Don’t eat the same stuff all the time. Your lifestyle should also switch. There’s never a time you should diversify your sleep. However, there are times that you should utilize sleep restriction therapy. Do not wake up later to get extra hours of sleep – it will throw your rhythm off. “If we are unable to adapt, then we will be unable to survive.” -Dr. Ralph AND MUCH MORE!

Naomi Whittel | Ingredients to Activate Autophagy |Anti-Aging Secrets : KKP 33

Naomi Whittel | Ingredients to Activate Autophagy |Anti-Aging Secrets : KKP 33

Today, I am lucky to have here with me a wellness explorer, Mother, Wife, CEO, and someone who is insatiably curious about the healing power of the Earth’s most precious ingredients, Naomi Whittel.   The Real Skinny on Fat Docuseries: http://bit.ly/2kmITwE   Naomi Whittel is widely recognized as the one to watch in the “wellness from within” space. Named by Prevention the nation’s leading female innovator in the natural products industry, Naomi is hailed as a trailblazer and an advocate of purity and potency in nutraceuticals.   Naomi continues to deliver on her promise to help millions thrive with award-winning supplements they know will truly help them. A premier wellness partner for QVC, Naomi has also been recognized as one of the leading innovators in the natural products industry by Whole Foods Magazine in their exclusive “Who’s Who of Manufacturers and Suppliers.”   Her story and products have been lauded by The Wall Street Journal, Vogue, ELLE, Harper’s Bazaar, ABC News, PBS, InStyle, The View, The Doctors, Dr. Oz, SHAPE, Access Hollywood, Natural Solutions, Good Morning America, Today Show and more.   She is a steward of sustainability, a sought-after keynote speaker, and a member of the UN Chamber of Commerce Foundation. Naomi lives in Boca Raton, Florida with her husband and their four children.   In this episode, Naomi and I talked about the journey that led her to where she is today. First, Naomi reveals some health troubles she had growing up, which led her to try some alternative medicines. In the end, it had a damaging effect on her health. Then, Naomi explains the inspiration behind her book and docuseries while giving tips on antiaging and feeling our best. She also describes how she landed a rare interview with a Nobel Peace Prize winner. Tune in!   FREE KETO KICKSTART GUIDE: http://www.ketokickstartguide.com    The Real Skinny on Fat Docuseries: http://bit.ly/2kmITwE   [00:50] Naomi’s Previous Health Problems She spent her early childhood on an organic, biodynamic farm in Switzerland. Because her father is a chemist, he would teach Naomi about the essential elements needed as part of a health-promoting diet. Naomi suffered from debilitating eczema for which nothing seemed to work-not even traditional medicine. An acupuncturist provided her with a curative path through herbs and treatments. The symptoms of her eczema subsided over time. However, Naomi was confronted with dangerous levels of toxicity from heavy metals in the herbs she had ingested.   [08:11] The Queen of Autophagy Naomi travels all over to different parts of the world and sees the trends that will eventually make their way to the United States. She got into autophagy intuitively – she recognized that she had to be building or removing. Green juices helped Naomi to eliminate her toxic load.   [10:00] You Need to Start Eating Citrus Bergamont Naomi met with Dr. Elizabeth Janda, a researcher in Italy, opened Naomi’s eyes to this lifechanging fruit. Traditionally, the fruit is used to treat high cholesterol. Melitidin and brutieridin, discourage the production of LDL (“bad”) cholesterol while helping your body make HDL (“good”) cholesterol.   [12:55] Activating Autophagy You can activate autophagy through exercise, sleeping, different foods, and a specific type of mindset. You can read Naomi’s book about autophagy here: Glow15: A Science-Based Plan to Lose Weight, Revitalize Your Skin, and Invigorate Your Life   [15:15] Interviewing a Nobel Prize Winner Naomi landed a rare interview with Nobel Prize Winner, Dr. Yoshinori Ohsumi on autophagy. She cried tears of admiration after the interview because he is so humble. Ohsumi was malnourished as a child and dreamed of being a scientist. He created a whole body of work and research on autophagy.   [18:20] How Skincare Relates to Autophagy Naomi worked with a Richard C. Wang, a dermatologist, to determine how to activate autophagy in the skin. She brought him hundreds of ingredients. Dr. Wang discovered which ingredients would activate the autophagy: Caffeine Ceramides Polyphenols Trehalose Your skin is just a mirror of what is going on inside. Women in their 50’s may have skin that looks so much older because of the different fibers. Women have to become smart about activating autophagy in the skin to stay looking young.   [23:00] Antiaging Tips Learn how to activate cellular autophagy. It’s good for detoxing. Tap into your circadian rhythm. Teach your body to utilize good stress. Exercising can be a form of good stress. Autophagy loves good stress which has a massive antiaging effect.   [26:05] The Real Skinny on Fat Naomi interviewed over 80 experts for her docuseries The Real Skinny on Fat. Oz did a whole show on keto and showed parts of her docuseries. Some of the key points Naomi took out of it: We want to burn fat as our core fuel. 25% of the population can utilize carbohydrates effectively. For those who can’t, it’s better not to bother. Nuts are not the best way to get your fats because they aren’t the cleanest fuel. A lot of times, they are not gluten-free. We have the power to give our bodies exactly what we need; it’s not as complicated as we imagine. Naomi started by first interviewing Dr. Jeff Bland - Founder and Pioneer in Functional Medicine. She worked on the docuseries during the weekends and at night because of her full-time job. However, she still got all of the sleep she needed and ate a keto diet.   [35:45] Navigating Self-Limiting Beliefs Naomi started working on her belief system when she was 12 years old because of eczema. We have to nurture our brain by giving it our favorite foods and sleep. Our brains cleanse themselves while we are sleeping. At a young age, Naomi knew she could get away from negative thoughts by working on her subconscious mind. When she starts to hear negative thoughts, she uses affirmations. Naomi also uses neuro-linguistic programming.   [41:40] Whole Body Metabolism What we believe about metabolism is just a tiny fraction of what it is. Naomi’s next book will be about this very topic.     AND MUCH MORE!   Resources from this episode: Visit Naomi Whittel’s Website Connect with Naomi Whittel: Facebook Twitter YouTube Instagram Glow15: A Science-Based Plan to Lose Weight, Revitalize Your Skin, and Invigorate Your Life by Naomi Whittel Rare Interview with Nobel Prize Winner, Dr. Yoshinori Ohsumi on Autophagy The Real Skinny on Fat   Email me at ben@ketokamp.com Join the The Keto Kamp Inner Circle   This podcast is for information purposes only.

What Fasting & Keto Does to The Brain | Key Nutrients to Stimulate Neurogenesis & BDNF – Ben Azadi: KKP 32

What Fasting & Keto Does to The Brain | Key Nutrients to Stimulate Neurogenesis & BDNF – Ben Azadi: KKP 32

On this episode of The Keto Kamp podcast we discuss the relationship between fasting, keto, and brain function.   You will be amazed when you discover how ketones and fasting super charge your brain top perform at a top level.   This episode is sponsored by my favorite olive oil, the Fresh Pressed Olive Oil Club. Try them for $1.00 www.ketokampolive.com    The 4 key foods to stimulate neurogenesis:   1) Blueberries. I have blueberries just about every single day, and I recommend it to my clients. Not only is it low in sugar compared to other fruits, it is also packed full of antioxidants. Blueberries act in so many ways to promote neurogenesis and protect the brain from cognitive decline.   Numerous studies show adding blueberries to the daily diet of mice increases neurogenesis significantly.   Casadesus, G., Shukitt-Hale, B., Stellwagen, H.M., et al. (Oct 2004). “Modulation of hippocampal plasticity and cognitive behavior by short-term blueberry supplementation in aged rats.” Nutritional Neuroscience. 7(5-6):309-16.   Acosta, S., Jernberg, J., Sanberg, C.D., Sanberg, P.R., Small, B.J., Gemma, C., Bickford, P.C. (Oct 2010). Rejuvenation Res. 13 (5):581-8. doi 10.1089/rej.1011. Epub 29 Jun 2010.   Joseph, J.A., Shukitt-Hale, B., Lau, F. C. “Fruit polyphenols and their effects on neuronal signaling and behavior in senescence.” Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences.   Consuming about 1 cup per day is the equivalent human portion that animal studies have suggested. Here’s a bonus tip, buy wild organic frozen blueberries. New research from South Dakota State University [https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2014/07/1 722124810.htm] suggests that frozen blueberries deliver a bigger dose of disease-fighting antioxidants than fresh. These antioxidants come from compounds called anthocyanins, which give blueberries their purple hue. The ice crystals that form when the berries are frozen disrupt the structure of the plant tissue and make anthocyanins more available. The anthocyanin dye, which causes the dark blue color, crosses the blood-brain barrier to stimulate neurogenesis. [Page 61]   Humans with cognitive decline showed improvements after consuming blueberries daily.   Devore. E. E., Kang, J.H., Bretellen, M. M., Grodstein, F. A. (July 2012). “Dietary intakes of berries and flavonoids in relation to cognitive decline.” Neurology. 72(1):135-43. Doi: 10.1002/ana.23594. Epub 26 Apr 2012.   Joseph, J.A., Shukitt-Hale, B., Willis, L. M. (Sep 2009). “Grape juice, berries, and walnuts affect brain aging and behavior.” Journal of Nutrition. 139(9):1813S-7S. Doi: 10.3945/jn.109.108266. Epub 29 Jul 2099. Review.   Aside from increasing neurogenesis, blueberries allow better communication among neurons, something called signal transduction. [Page 62]   Studies have shown that blueberry extracts are as effective as fresh blueberries.[page 62] In most animal studies it’s the extract that is used. This makes daily blueberry intake possible for those who don’t have access to fresh blueberries. Life Extension makes a great blueberry extract product.   2) Omega 3s. Another neurogenesis superstar is the complex of omega-3 fatty acids, found in abundance in cold water fish, including wild Alaskin salmon, coho and sockeye salmon, black cod, sablefish, sardines, and herrings. Omega-3s have been shown to dramatically increase neurogenesis and BDNF Levels. [Page 62]   Neuroscience researcher Sandrine Thuret, Ph.D., of London’s Kings College, reported a 40% increase in neurogenesis by adding omega-3’s in Science Daily in 2007. Other studies have shown impressive results in neurogenesis, elevated BDNF levels, increased in brain size, and neuroprotective benefits from omega-3s.   Conklin, S.M., Gianaros, P.J., Brown, S.M., et al. (29 June 2007). “Long-chain omega-3 fatty acid intake is associated positively with corticolimbic gray matter volume in healthy adults.” Neuroscience Letters. 421(3):209-12   Beltz, B. S., Tlusty, M. F., Benton, J. L., Sandeman, D. C. (2007). “Omega-3 fatty acids up regulate adult neurogenesis.” Neurogenesis Letters.   Zainuddin, M. S. A., & Thuret, S. (2012). “Nutrition, adult and hippocampal neurogenesis and mental health.” British Medical Bulletien. 103, 1, p.89-114. DOI:10.1093/bmb/Ids021.   Our brains are made up of about 60% fat; this is where the term “fathead” came from. The next time someone calls you a fathead, say thank you. DHA, one of the most important of the omega-3s, constitutes about 30% of the brains cerebral cortex.   Jockers. D. (2012). “Is your brain getting enough of this nutrient?” NaturalNews.com. (11/05/2012).   When you consume high quality fats you are continuously rebuilding your brains’ cellular structure. Omega-3s are the highest quality fats for brain development.   3) Green Tea. Green tea contains polyphenols, the most powerful of which is epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), a type of catechin. Green tea’s polyphenols have been shown to increase neurogenesis, BDNF levels, and to have strong health benefits ranging from cancer prevention to fat loss, plus cardiovascular benefits, immunity improvement, and glucose reduction.   (Aug 2012). Molecular Nutrition & Food Research. 56(8):1292-303. doi: 10.1002/mnfr.201200035.
