Angela is joined by Dr Clare Bailey to talk about the benefits of olive oil and how to reduce your blood sugar in order to promote weight loss and help to reverse Type-2 diabetes.
KEY TAKEAWAYS

One you reach a state of ketosis, you're burning fat rather than sugar. Once you get your sugars down you will feel better and more alert.
Take a piece of string and cut it to your height - fold it in half, wrap it around your middle, and the double string should meet at the end. This is an easy test for height vs weight.

BEST MOMENTS

They delve into the scientific definition of flow, highlighting its characteristics such as complete concentration, the merging of action and awareness, and the vanishing of self.
KEY TAKEAWAYS

Flow is defined as an optimal state of consciousness where individuals feel and perform their best.
Flow is characterised by complete concentration, the merger of action and awareness, the vanishing of self, time distortion, a sense of control, and an autotelic experience.
Flow leads to significant increases in productivity, creativity, empathy, wisdom, physical performance, happiness, well-being, and overall life satisfaction.
The six core characteristics of flow include complete concentration, the merger of action and awareness, the vanishing of self, time distortion, a sense of control, and an autotelic experience.

BEST MOMENTS 
"Flow, scientifically, if we're defining it, technically, it's an optimal state of consciousness where we feel our best and we perform our best."
"On average, it was 500% more productive. That's a giant, extraordinary thing."
"When I'm at my best, I'm in this altered state of consciousness where every decision, every action flows seamlessly, perfectly, effortlessly from the last."
"Time is a calculation performed all over the prefrontal cortex. It's a network, basically. And as that network collapses, like any network, we lose our ability to separate past from present and future."

Bitesize: How to Become Five Times (!) More Productive -  Human Performance Expert, Steven Kotler

Angela is joined by nutritional expert, Eric Edmeades, who discusses his work with the WildFit nutrition program and the impact it has had on people's lives.
Eric explains his decision to write the book "Post-Diabetic" and the importance of making nutrition programs accessible. He delves into the influence of the food industry on health and the need for consumer behaviour change, as well as metabolic flexibility, seasonal eating, and the lifestyle of the Hadza people.
KEY TAKEAWAYS

The WildFit program has shown significant results in terms of weight loss, diabetes reversal, and overall health improvement for participants.
Understanding the optimal human diet based on nutritional anthropology is crucial for achieving long-term health and well-being.
The WildFit program incorporates behavioural change dynamics to help individuals develop new habits and transform their relationship with food.
seasonal eating based on ancestral metabolic modes can lead to better metabolic flexibility and overall health outcomes.
While exercise is important, prioritising proper nutrition over exercise is key for achieving optimal health and body composition.

BEST MOMENTS 
"I made the decision to go a different route, and that was to do multimedia, so that people could go through a long-term multimedia journey with me."
“You geared this at type one diabetics and reducing the amount of insulin."
"The issue is not whether or not sugar is bad. I would argue that there is bad sugar. No question about that, I would say."
"It's very interesting when you dial it back, I see the same as you, actually you see more fat loss and actually better body composition."

WildFit: The Diet That Upgrades Your Health, Enhances Human Performance and Protects Against Diabetes with Eric Edmeades

Angela talks to John R Miles about the theme of rising above self-doubt and reinventing oneself in a rapidly changing world.
They emphasise the importance of authentic living and breaking away from societal norms to author one's own fulfilling life story, highlighting the staggering statistics on unfulfilled individuals globally and the impending automation of jobs, urging listeners to awaken to the evolving landscape.
KEY TAKEAWAYS

Embrace the quest for authentic living and rebel against societal norms to define your own standards for a fulfilling life.
With automation on the rise, individuals should focus on their uniqueness and consider paths like entrepreneurship or freelancing to navigate the changing job landscape.
The current education system may not adequately prepare the next generation for the evolving world, emphasizing the importance of developing anti-fragility and passion-driven mindsets.
Novak Djokovic's relentless pursuit of personal mastery and mental toughness serves as a prime example of shaping one's life to mirror inner values and aspirations.

BEST MOMENTS 
"It's about a rebellion against the societal norms that seem to dictate our lives. It's a refusal to settle for a life that's defined by someone else's standards instead of defining them for yourself."
"I think more and more people are going to end up having to become maybe a solo entrepreneur, a solopreneur where instead of working for these corporations or what have you, you're going to become a freelancer."
"I think for many people, what I notice is the aspect you talk about there in terms of where we might need to reinvent ourselves, but also as a mother of teenage children, I feel like the education system isn't guiding them particularly well."

Bitesize: How to Reinvent Yourself with John R Miles

In the second part of a very special two-part conversation, Angela talks once more to the remarkable Dr Sara Gottfried, an expert in hormones and autoimmunity, about the alarming rise in autoimmune conditions, particularly among women and adolescents.
Dr. Sara delves into the connection between trauma, stress, and the development of autoimmune diseases, shedding light on the impact of unresolved stress responses on the body's immune, neurological, and endocrine systems. The conversation also explores the role of self-love, psychedelics like MDMA and psilocybin, and ketamine in treating mental health issues and trauma-related conditions
KEY TAKEAWAYS

The prevalence of autoimmunity is high, with one in three individuals having an autoimmune condition
Rates of autoimmunity are escalating, especially in men and adolescents, with a significant number showing antibodies against their own cells.
While women are traditionally more vulnerable to autoimmune diseases, recent observations suggest an increase in anti-nuclear antibodies in men, indicating a shift in susceptibility.
Trauma, especially in women who experience more trauma than men, is a significant trigger for autoimmunity, with unresolved stress responses contributing to dysregulation.
Psychedelic-assisted therapy, including substances like MDMA and psilocybin, shows promise in addressing trauma, depression, and autoimmune conditions, offering a new approach to mental health treatment.

BEST MOMENTS 
"We think that there's differences in terms of gender, those are sex-based differences, but there's also gender-based differences."
"It's a more generally feminine approach to a stress response. Now, if you take those who are born male who do more fight flight, they are using big muscle groups to fight, or to run, and there's a way that that mobilizes the stress response and helps them recover fast."
"It's really fundamental. Yeah, you know, if you do an adverse childhood experiences score, if you do the ACE questionnaire, there's a lot of things that aren't asked in that questionnaire”
"And MDMA opens you up to more kind of like love experiences, experiences of love, right? And joy."

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.

Dr Sara Gottfried (Part 2): Trauma, Autoimmunity & Inner Healing

Angela talks to Milli Raizada, an experienced NHS GP who has personally navigated hormonal challenges, about the key aspects that women in their 40s and early 50s should focus on to optimise their health.
Dr. Raizada discusses the fluctuations in hormones during the perimenopause phase, emphasising the impact on various bodily functions such as brain health, muscle health, and bone health. She also highlights the importance of understanding hormone levels, particularly oestrogen, and its influence on neurotransmitters like dopamine and serotonin
KEY TAKEAWAYS

Understanding the hormonal changes during perimenopause is crucial for women in their 40s and early 50s.
Declining oestrogen levels can lead to various symptoms like weight gain, brain fog, and mood changes due to its influence on neurotransmitters.
Nutrition plays a vital role in managing hormonal health, with a focus on unprocessed whole foods, probiotics, and prebiotics for gut health.
Tailoring exercise routines to include strength training and moderate-intensity activities can help maintain muscle mass and overall health during perimenopause.
Empowering individuals with knowledge about their bodies and personalized lifestyle plans can help manage hormonal issues effectively without relying solely on medication.

BEST MOMENTS 
"Eating foods that are naturally lower in carbohydrates... eating unprocessed natural carbohydrates, fruits and vegetables and everything in moderation is so important."
"I think it's looking at when we know that in our 30s muscle and bone health decline with age you know you get sarcopenia you get loss of bone density."
"I had a problem with chronic pain and the consultant offered me some morphine and I just thought, you're putting the plaster on the issue here. I really do want to know what's causing the problem."
