In today’s episode, we cover a fascinating discussion by Dr. Andrew Huberman, a neurobiology and ophthalmology professor at Stanford University, on the effects of alcohol on the human body and brain. Huberman dives into everything from the chemistry of alcohol to its impacts on organs like the gut, liver, and brain. He explains how alcohol interacts with neurochemicals like serotonin and dopamine, influencing mood and potentially contributing to addiction. The episode also covers the science behind hangovers, ways to reduce their effects, and the long-term health risks of chronic drinking, including cancer. Huberman’s insights offer valuable guidance for making informed choices about alcohol and prioritizing overall wellness."

Dr. Mindy Pelz, a women's health expert, shares her insights on weight loss, metabolism, and hormonal health in an interview on the Jay Shetty Podcast. Pelz emphasizes the importance of eating real food free from chemicals and toxins, and fasting to help control cravings and improve metabolic health. She argues that the calorie-in, calorie-out model is flawed, and focusing on blood sugar regulation and the health of the gut microbiome is more effective. She also discusses the importance of protein and its role in hormone production, and the importance of lifestyle changes for women, especially during perimenopause and menopause. Pelz encourages listeners to be mindful of the information they consume and to take responsibility for their own health.

This excerpt from a ZOE podcast (link below) discusses the topic of protein intake and whether protein supplements like bars and shakes are beneficial. The podcast features a nutrition doctor who explains that the average person consumes more than enough protein through a healthy diet, and excessive protein intake can actually be detrimental to health. She emphasizes the importance of consuming whole foods rich in protein and fiber over processed foods and supplements. The podcast debunks common myths surrounding protein intake, such as the need to consume protein immediately after exercise and the idea that plant-based diets are insufficient in protein. Ultimately, the podcast encourages listeners to focus on consuming whole, unprocessed foods and to avoid the marketing hype surrounding protein supplements.
