    • The Breakfast Rule That Transformed My Metabolism After 40

      The Breakfast Rule That Transformed My Metabolism After 40
      Feb 23 2026
      How does breakfast timing influence hormones and blood sugar control? In this episode, I break down the exact breakfast rule that transformed my metabolism after 40 by changing when and how I eat my first meal. I explain why timing matters just as much as food quality, how protein-first breakfasts stabilize blood sugar, and why ultra-processed “healthy” breakfasts backfire. I also share the science behind circadian rhythms, morning light exposure, and protein intake so you can train your metabolism to work for you, not against you. What you’ll learn: (02:38) Why eating within an earlier daily window improves insulin sensitivity and metabolic health. (03:31) How morning sunlight exposure activates cortisol and turns metabolism back on. (04:12) Why skipping breakfast is linked to poor blood sugar control. (05:56) How standard “healthy” breakfasts spike glucose and crash energy after 40. (06:49) Why ultra-processed foods drive overeating even when calories are matched. (07:41) How protein before or around workouts boosts lean mass and resting metabolism. (09:08) The exact protein, fiber, and fat formula for a metabolic-friendly breakfast. (14:41) How changing breakfast timing and protein intake reduced cravings and improved recovery. Love the podcast? Here’s what to do: Subscribe to the podcast. Leave a review.

    • The Link Between the Gut Microbiome and Our Immune System with Dr. Jeffrey Bland

      The Link Between the Gut Microbiome and Our Immune System with Dr. Jeffrey Bland
      Feb 18 2026
      How do ultra-processed foods change the way your genes behave? In this episode, I talk with my longtime friend and mentor, Dr. Jeffrey Bland, about why ultra-processed foods may be the most dangerous health experiment humans have ever run. We explored how food acts as information—shaping gene expression, immune health, and even how full or satisfied you feel. Dr. Bland, often called the father of functional medicine, brings decades of insight into how modern food systems are quietly rewriting our biology. Dr. Jeffrey Bland is known as the father of functional medicine and has spent over five decades studying how food, lifestyle, and biology shape human health. He’s a prolific educator, researcher, and founder behind multiple institutes, including Big Bold Health, dedicated to personalized and preventive medicine. What you’ll learn: (02:44) Why ultra-processed foods may be the biggest driver of modern chronic disease. (04:32) How food functions as biological information that influences gene expression. (06:49) Why life expectancy is declining despite advances in modern medicine. (09:22) How ultra-processed foods disrupt the gut microbiome and immune system. (17:38) What distinguishes healthy gut bacteria from harmful microbial patterns. (24:39) Why poor satiety from processed foods fuels weight gain and GLP-1 drug use. (28:29) How bitter compounds in natural foods naturally stimulate satiety hormones. (39:39) One simple mindset shift that can immediately improve food choices and health. Love the podcast?
