In today’s episode, Dr. Scott and Tommy discuss an interesting study on the effects of time restricted eating (fasting) on shift workers. There have been shown to be increased cardiometabolic risks for this population of workers. However, this study shows how fasting and a fasting lifestyle can combat some of those potential health risks! They include essential frontline workers, such as physicians, nurses, police, pilots, and firefighters. These essential workers are the heroes of our society, hence the name The Healthy Heroes Study. Shout out to all the folks that fill these hours and keep us safe and keep us going!

In today’s episode of the "Fasting for Life" podcast, we discuss the psychological challenges weight loss seekers face when relying solely on the scale for progress tracking. We emphasize the importance of focusing on non-scale victories, setting behavior-based goals, and maintaining a health-centric mindset rather than an appearance-focused one. Additionally, we encourage mindful eating, consistent journaling to track progress, seeking social support, and celebrating small milestones to maintain motivation. Ultimately, the goal is to adopt sustainable habits and self-compassion to successfully navigate the weight loss journey.

Ep. 231 - When the Scale Fails You: Non-Scale Victories & Fasting for Sustainable Weight Loss | Overcoming Expectations, Celebrating Progress & Embracing Self-Compassion

In today’s episode of the "Fasting for Life" podcast, we delve into the debate between the calorie in, calorie out model and the carbohydrate insulin model of obesity, focusing on a recent study involving obese mice. The study found that a low-carb, high-fat diet prevented the development of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) more effectively than the Western diet, even under similar caloric conditions. We emphasize the significant role of macronutrients, insulin levels, and meal timing in weight management and overall health, urging listeners to combine fasting with low-carb diets for optimal results. We also encourage listeners to explore their resources for practical tips on implementing these strategies in their own lives.
