    ABOUT THE GUEST

    Cate Shanahan, MD, is a board-certified Family Physician and Cornell-trained biochemist. She is standing up to the conflicted health authorities whose unwholesome nutrition advice is making the world sick. Her mission to end chronic disease started in 2002, when she discovered that we’ve all been misled about saturated fat and cholesterol, and began building on the discoveries of experts whose work is being ignored or actively silenced. Her bestselling books have informed a generation of health influencers about the damaging effects of a collection of 8 common seed oils (The Hateful 8) that are the single worst ingredient in the food supply, and the benefits of bone broth, organ meats, fermented foods, and other ancestral health principles. Besides regularly appearing in and writing for national media, she has also worked as director for the Los Angeles Lakers PRO Nutrition program, and currently runs a telehealth practice.

    Dr Sara Gottfried - https://www.saragottfriedmd.com/

    ABOUT THE GUEST

    Sara Gottfried MD, is a scientist, researcher, Harvard – educated medical doctor with 25 years of experience, and author of four New York Times bestselling books.

    Through her practise, Dr Gottfried treats people with a host of conditions, and educates about hormone balance, metabolic health and the interaction between food and your metabolism.

    From the Harvard and MIT-educated physician, and New York Times bestselling author of The Hormone Cure, The Hormone Reset Diet and Younger, comes a brand new book on the impact of trauma on your body and immune system – and what you can do to heal.

    Up to 80 per cent of patients with autoimmune disease experienced significant emotional distress before getting sick. In other words, trauma and autoimmune disease are intimately linked, and Dr Gottfried shows us how.

    A leading voice in the autoimmune and women’s health space, Dr Gottfried’s insights into the gut, women’s health and hormones, and trauma as it pertains to autoimmune illness is essential reading

    Conventional medicine falls short when it comes to both diagnosing and treating autoimmune disease. Many people suffer from mysterious symptoms like severe fatigue, brain fog, aches and pains, feelings of tingling and numbness, stubborn weight gain, abdominal pain, digestive problems, hair loss, insomnia, and even anxiety, and don't realize their immune system is at the root of their symptoms. In her precision medicine practice, Dr Gottfried noticed a seemingly unusual pattern: many of her patients who suffer from autoimmune disease and symptoms have a history of trauma. Dr Gottfried has created a powerful programme designed to break the vicious cycle of autoimmune disease, reset your immune system and restore your health, with advice on diet, sleep, supplements, breathwork, microbiome restoration, somatic therapy and much more.

  • Angela talks to Dr Alessandra Zonari the chief scientific officer and founding member of OneSkin.

  • Angela is joined for a bitesize episode by personal trainer and best-selling author Mike Matthews. Together, they discuss the common misconceptions surrounding women's fitness, particularly the fear of becoming "bulky" from weightlifting. Mike stresses the significance of body composition, explaining how women can achieve a toned and athletic look by managing body fat levels while building muscle.

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    The “Bulky” Myth: Women appear bulky when fat layers over growing muscles; reducing body fat creates a toned, athletic look. Body Composition: Achieving 18-25% body fat allows women to maintain curves while appearing lean and strong. Strength Training Benefits: Lifting weights builds muscle definition without excessive bulk when paired with fat loss. Sustainable Fitness: Optimal fitness can be achieved by following a balanced exercise and nutrition routine without being overly restrictive or obsessive. Personalisation is Key: Each woman's ideal physique is based on her preference for muscle tone and curves, achieved through targeted training and healthy habits.

    TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS

    0:05 – Sustainable fitness doesn’t require perfection. 3:40 – Introduction to the “bulky myth” for women lifting weights. 7:21 – Importance of body fat percentage in shaping an athletic physique. 10:08 – Understanding optimal body fat ranges for health and appearance. 11:31 – Balancing body fat reduction and muscle gain for a feminine, athletic look. 14:03 – Final thoughts on maintaining sustainable health and fitness habits.

  • Angela welcomes Dr Sarah Berry to explore common misconceptions surrounding seed oils, including concerns about rancidity, oxidation, and their association with inflammation and cardiovascular disease.

    Sarah presents evidence from her extensive research, arguing that seed oils, when consumed in moderation, do not pose significant health risks and may even offer benefits, such as lowering LDL cholesterol.

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    Seed Oils Aren’t the Villains: Dr. Berry explains that seed oils have been misunderstood and demonised. They may lower LDL cholesterol and contain natural antioxidants like vitamin E, which protect against oxidation.

    Processing Myths Debunked: Many fear the chemicals in seed oil production, but Dr. Berry notes that most are removed or present in trace amounts that pose no health risks.

    Balance is Key: Olive oil remains the "king of oils," but a mix of oils, including rapeseed or sunflower, can provide various health benefits.

    Omega-6 Concerns Are Overblown: High omega-6 intake is fine as long as there’s enough omega-3 in your diet to balance it out.

    TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS

    0:04 – Dr. Sarah Berry on misconceptions about seed oils 2:20 – Introduction by Angela Foster 4:15 – Common myths about seed oils (oxidation, inflammation, and rancidity) 8:10 – Benefits of seed oils in lowering cholesterol and inflammation 19:24 – Glass vs. plastic packaging for oils 24:04 – Comparing olive oil and rapeseed oil for health benefits 35:24 – Historical context of fats, trans fats, and dietary trends 41:04 – Deep frying and health concerns around reused oils 54:43 – Omega-6 and omega-3 ratios explained

  • Dr. John Demartini joins Angela once more to discuss the importance of setting meaningful goals and the rituals that can foster breakthroughs in our lives. He emphasises the significance of starting each day with high-priority actions and maintaining metrics to track progress toward our objectives.

    Dr. Demartini also examines the nature of fear, suggesting that it can serve as a valuable guide to help us recognise when we are pursuing unrealistic fantasies rather than true objectives. He further explores the concept of karma and how our perceptions shape our experiences, urging listeners to embrace both the positive and negative aspects of life.

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    Fear is a gift: It helps us align with authentic goals and mitigate risks. Setting congruent goals: True breakthroughs come from aligning actions with intrinsic values. Metrics for success: Track daily progress towards your priorities. Authenticity is power: Living authentically aligns your energy, actions, and outcomes.

  • Angela is joined by Dr Morgan Nolte, a geriatric physical therapist, to explore the critical topic of insulin resistance and its widespread impact on health.

    Dr Nolte shares her journey from traditional physical therapy to focusing on disease prevention, emphasising the importance of understanding insulin's role in blood sugar regulation. She also delves into the differences between insulin resistance, prediabetes, and type 2 diabetes, highlighting the often-overlooked significance of fasting insulin levels

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    Insulin Resistance Basics: Insulin regulates blood sugar, but chronic high levels lead to resistance, increasing risks of type 2 diabetes, obesity, and other chronic conditions. Early Warning Signs: Indicators like high blood pressure, skin tags, fatigue, and cravings may hint at underlying insulin resistance even before blood sugar levels rise. Lifestyle is Key: Adopting a low-carb, high-protein diet, engaging in strength training, walking post-meals, and managing stress and sleep can reverse insulin resistance. Testing Matters: Fasting insulin and HOMA-IR are better indicators of insulin resistance than traditional glucose and HbA1c tests.

    TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS

    0:05 – Insulin resistance as a silent threat. 2:55 – Dr. Nolte's transition from geriatric PT to disease prevention. 4:19 – Understanding insulin, glucose, and their roles in the body. 9:39 – The importance of fasting insulin and HOMA-IR testing. 12:09 – Progression from insulin resistance to type 2 diabetes. 16:09 – Early signs of insulin resistance, like skin tags and high BP. 22:43 – Diet strategies: prioritising protein and reducing carbs. 38:42 – Exercise tips: strength training and post-meal walking. 46:46 – Impact of stress and sleep on insulin resistance. 52:15 – Resources: Dr. Nolte's programs, YouTube, and podcast.

  • Angela is joined by Dr Stephanie Estima to discuss the challenges women face during perimenopause, particularly in their forties. They explore the concept of "Betty," a term that embodies women striving for self-actualisation and improvement in their lives.

    They also look into common issues such as body composition changes, sleep disturbances, and the stress of balancing aging parents and children, all while navigating hormonal shifts.

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    Hormonal Adaptation in Fitness: Women in their 40s face unique hormonal challenges. Dr. Estima highlights how changes in estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone impact recovery, resilience, and body composition, stressing the importance of prioritizing recovery and managing stress over relentless high-intensity workouts. The Power of Community: Emotional support through close friendships or partnerships can help women manage midlife challenges, from caring for aging parents to raising children, offering a vital cushion for emotional health. Periodized Training Based on Menstrual Cycle: Dr. Estima outlines a personalized workout approach that aligns with the hormonal phases of the menstrual cycle. For those without a cycle, checking in with the body’s signals, such as energy levels and recovery, is key. Practical Nutrition Strategy: A protein-focused diet, paired with carbs post-leg days, supports muscle recovery and overall energy. Adjusting macronutrients based on the day’s activity level and focusing on healthy carbs over excessive fats can support hormonal balance. Healthy Decluttering for Emotional Wellness: Physical decluttering, such as downsizing possessions, can also lead to emotional freedom, offering a sense of lightness and peace.

    Kelly completed her psychiatric training and fellowship at NYU Medical Center after graduating from Cornell University Medical College and has a B.S. from M.I.T. in Systems Neuroscience. She specialized in a root-cause-resolution approach to psychiatric syndromes and symptoms.

    Kelly was one of the first to specialize in prescribing to pregnant and breastfeeding women before waking up to the deception and corruption of Big Pharma.

    After her wakeup call, she devoted her practice to reversing chronic illness and getting her patients off medications they’d sometimes been on for decades. She describes her healing protocol in the New York Times bestseller, A Mind of Your Own. Her protocol was also published in the medical literature with history-making outcomes.

    Kelly teaches emotional mastery and embodiment so that women can generate safety within and stop demanding it through control-based tactics.

  • Angela is joined by fitness expert Adam Richardson to discuss his unique approach to health and well-being, which contrasts with the common pursuit of optimisation.

Embrace Movement Variety: Moving regularly throughout the day, rather than staying still for long periods, can prevent stiffness and promote joint health.
