In today's episode, I'm talking about why standard cereal is not food — and what eat instead. Cereal gives the illusion of health, but it's empty, addictive, and exhausting. Breaking our fast with a protein-packed breakfast sets us up for a satiated day with a mind that can stay locked in.

In today's episode, we're talking about the energy drink myth. If you've ever reached for an energy drink just to "get through the day," this one's for you.

Because here's the truth: energy drinks don't give you energy — they steal it.

Stimulation ≠ Energy Most people feel a jolt after drinking a Monster, Bang, or Red Bull and assume that's energy. Caffeine in these drinks blocks adenosine receptors in your brain — the ones that normally signal it's time to rest. But this isn't literal energy — it's a stress response.

You've just told your body, "A bear is chasing me!" when all you're doing is trying to make it through your shift or workout.

In today's episode, I'm talking about pinkwashing. Are you seeing pink on products, billboards, and commercials? October is breast cancer awareness month. We're told we're "fighting breast cancer" by buying more stuff. Unfortunately, this isn't support for women — it's pinkwashing or as I like to say, the corporate rebranding of disease for profit.

When companies sell ultra-processed foods, synthetic makeups loaded with parabens, plastic bottles laced with estrogen mimics and then slap a pink ribbon on top — they aren't fighting breast cancer.

They're asking you to fund it. In today's video, I'm talking about 5 ways women can decrease their risk of being diagnosed with breast cancer.

In today's episode, we're talking about bacteria and the impact artificial sweeteners can have on your gut health.

Did you know that you've got more bacterial cells in your body than human cells?

Bacteria are the biggest part of what makes us uniquely human. You are a walking bacterial super-organism.

Artificial sweeteners—like sucralose, aspartame, and saccharin—aren't neutral because they have no caloric value as so many love to postulate.

A study published in the Journal of Nature in 2014 revealed that the altered bacterial balance brought on by ingesting artificial sweeteners triggered glucose intolerance—basically, Splenda or Ace K lay the ground work for diabetes in the future.

Artificial sweeteners shift the gut away from butyrate-producing species (our favorite short chain fatty acid) and toward inflammatory ones. This is essential to understand because how those bacteria are balanced decides how our mind and body manifest in life.

In today's episode, we're talking about the unexpected weight gain, disease and dysfunction that can come with aging if the right habits aren't implemented when we're younger.

"I don't understand, I have eaten this way my whole life. I haven't changed anything and I have gained 20lbs, my joints ache and I'm constantly bloated."

Same foods, same routines, but now you're gaining weight, feeling sluggish, maybe dealing with brain fog, anxiety or joint pain?

Every week, same scenario, different patients.

What's going on?

In today's episode, we're talking about the one thing that has transformed my patients' lives more than anything else over the last decade - real food.

I don't mean the stuff lining the center aisles of the grocery store — I mean the life-giving stuff. Most of us have been conditioned to see food based on attractive packaging and marketing slogans like fat free, sugar free, organic, Non-GMO.

Today, I want to show you why real food matters and how it could change your life.
