The Functional Health Podcast

#68 Rick Miller - Men’s Health For Physical Performance And Longevity


Listen Later

I sat down with Rick Miller at his clinic in London, UK, to talk all things Men's health for physical performance and longevity.

Rick Miller is a clinical and sports dietician who is trained in functional medicine. In this podcast he eloquently explores optimal nutrition and exercise for men to support physical performance and longevity. He discusses the nuances around men and masculinity and how men are less likely to seek support for whole host of common issues such as insulin resistance, mental health, gastric concerns and sexual dysfunction. Interestingly, dopamine excess has been shown to impact libido and he manages this via a dopamine fast and cold exposure. Rick reviews the evidence around macronutrients on testosterone levels and explains his rationale for using an animal based eating approach within his clinic.

In this conversation we discuss:

  • How to navigate the world or training for men.
  • Ricks take on the optimal diet.
  • Common nutrition and training pitfalls to avoid.
  • The biggest levers to pull for men's optimal health 
  • Much, much more.
