HealthCast Now - The Intersection of Health, Wellness & Circadian Optimization

Ricky Sharpe is an experienced biohacker from the United Kingdom (UK) who focuses on Quantum Biology and Health via pro Circadian lifestyle choices and inputs.

During the interview Ricky shares the story of where is passion for health and wellness began. In November 2007 his father was diagnosed with Lung Cancer. After being told he would live for longer than 12 months if the family took the option of treatment, he tragically passed away a mere 10 weeks later on Valentine’s Day in 2008.

His aim from that day forward was to become the expert and protect my loved ones from falling victim to well-intentioned healthcare practitioners and a broken system.

To quote his website.  

“The level of my understanding now reaches into the realms of Quantum Physics and beyond, and so i'm trying to condense this knowledge and insight into layperson terms.  In the early 2000's there were plenty of MP3 players on the market being sold as '2 Gigabites of Data' - The product never really took off until Steve jobs released the Ipod and spoke in simple terms '500 songs in your pocket.'  My aim is to do the same to Quantum Health: Help people understand why it's important, how it can be simple, and the benefits it will give them for free from now for the rest of their lives, without supplements, Devices or fear of the dreaded 'C' word”

Dr. Josh Lamaro is an osteopath, a therapist who treats patients in a non-invasive manner with a focus on a holistic approach to body health by means of strengthening the musculoskeletal framework. He’s worked in Bendigo for over 9 years. He promotes the idea of treating the whole body as a unit and considers the lifestyles and various stressors of the individual before recommending a procedure.

In today’s episode, Josh tells us what Osteopathy is, the importance of knowing stressors, the “trap” of overtraining, and why smartphones might be the underlying cause of chronic ailments.

“Put someone in a black box, there’s no light, there's no movement, but there's perfect food, will they be healthy? I would wager probably not.” Dr. Josh Lamaro

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Josh’s own definition of Osteopathy and why it’s an overlooked form of treatment.
• Why doctors like Josh treat patients on the basis of their lifestyles more than the symptoms they display.
• The dangers of treating the body on a divide and conquer basis.
• How even a perfect diet isn’t healthy if everything else such as exposure to sunlight, proper sleep, and physical movement is lacking.
• Why stress is a recurring theme in osteopathy
• Overtraining is a common stressor in today’s fitness enthusiasts. People break when they workout rigorously five days a week.
• Treating involves asking the person what they usually do that might cause them their injury or disease in the first place.
• People get into the trap of overtraining by thinking getting a rest day is “bad” for them.
• Excessive training results to more cortisol and contributes to more body fat.
• Society is geared towards seeing everything as needing to be additive and not subtractive. Not getting results? Add more.
• Why your favorite smartphone might actually be messing up your body’s natural processes by simply looking at it first thing in the morning or by just keeping it in your front pocket every day.
• EM radiation is a health concern in today’s gadget-driven society.

Key Takeaways:

• Treatment should be approached from a subtracting point of view. Take away things that maxes your system out and the additive can what restores you such as more rest.
• If you mess up the timing in your body, you’re going to gain weight, not going to sleep right, and be generally unhealthy.

Mariah MacDonald is her own fitness inspiration. She struggled through juggling being a mother, her career as a coach, and her own weight and eating disorders before she finally figured out how to effectively transform yourself into a better you. She now lives her life helping others transform their body beyond belief.

Today, she’ll talk about her own experience and the troubles she met along her transformation. She’ll also be giving out professional advice on what to do to achieve your fitness goals without compromising comfort.

“The nutrition lifestyle is the door and workouts are the key. If you don’t have a door, the key is totally useless.” Mariah MacDonald

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• The three important things you have to focus on first before you embark on your transformation journey.
• Why transformation is like a pyramid
• The effects of sleep, stress, as well as positive and negative influences on your body
• When you should do weight training and cardio.
• Why a simple diet is more effective than a complicated diet.
• The importance of directly learning from someone who’s done this before; who transformed themselves successfully and coach you into the lifestyle of somebody who’s fit.

Key Takeaways:

• You have to be accountable. Accountability makes you successful.
• It's not meant to be easy but it’s not unbearable either. There will always be hiccups and bumps along the way but you can get past them.
• Ease into the transformation. At first you might feel like sputtering a bit but just be patient with your body.

Mariah MacDonald is a transformation coach who transformed over 1000 clients in the span of her career. Her determination to beat her personal struggles enabled her to become the best version of herself today.

In part 2 of our interview, she’ll discuss how she transformed herself and her clients, the importance of creating a do or die situation, as well as the main reasons why some of her clients don’t always get the results they paid for.

“When you hire a coach, shut up and listen to what they have to say for 12 weeks. Don't question (their advice) and see if it works for you.” Mariah MacDonald

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why coaching for results is a better and more efficient approach than coaching for sessions.
• Why training rigorously for five days a week is ineffective.
• How Mariah manages to maintain a low body fat percentage while training for only two days a week.
• The difference between a typical trainer and a transformation coach.
• It’s possible to sleep for up to 8 hours a night if you make the right choices.
• The things Mariah did to change her life as well as the choices she made to make over 1000 of her clients’ life better.
• Why being ashamed of your body will lead you to a downward spiral.
• Why you should consult a professional when you binge instead of blaming yourself. Know why you end up binge eating from a scientific perspective.
• Why being close-minded will not make your lifestyle any better.

Key Takeaways:

• Don’t rely on the scale. Instead, judge your hard work with a mirror.
• Celebrate the small gains you make along the way.
• Create a do or die situation to make your transformation work better.

Jimmy Moore is a best-selling author, host of the longest running health podcast on the internet, and a living example of the benefits of a low-carb diet. He was 410 lbs. 12 years ago and it wasn’t until his own mother in law gave him a Dr. Atkins’ New Diet Revolution that made him rethink his life and his perspective on what “healthy eating” really is. He would then lose a total of 180 lbs. a year later and shrink his waist by 20 inches and has since lived a low-carb lifestyle.

Today we’re going to talk about the topic of fasting especially intermittent fasting, its benefits, and a few tips on how to not just start with fasting but also succeed in it.

“If you have fears about this, don't fear it. Just try it. There's no harm, you're not going to die." Jimmy Moore

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Jimmy became passionate about fasting because of the paleo community and its many experts.
• Thomas Seyfried said If you want to prevent cancer, go on a one week fast once a year.
• People on a ketogenic or low-carb diet will have an easier time with intermittent fasting.
• Intermittent fasting won’t work on sugar burners aka people who regularly eat large amounts of carbs.
• It’s best to eliminate the idea of “snacks” in between meals to start. Compensate by eating enough during actual meal times.
• Some of the benefits of intermittent fasting include cancer prevention, reduces the onset of certain illnesses, lowers insulin levels, and improves mood.
• The ketogenic diet and fasting complement each other when it comes to resetting your body’s systems and optimizing its functions.
• Some of the common mistakes of people who start with intermittent fasting are consumption of artificial sweeteners thru “diet” beverages, people take it easy during fasting instead of living their normal lives, and some try to fast before the holidays which causes them to “flip out” and crash.
• Fasting revs up your metabolism by 10%. It also won’t make you lose muscle if you have fat, even as low as 8% body fat is enough to be used as fuel.

Key Takeaways:

• Don't fast before the holidays or any special occasion because you'll succumb to temptation, fail at your fast, and inevitably not enjoy life. The goal of fasting is to let you add more to life, not take life away from you.

Our guest today is serial entrepreneur and passionate health advocate, Alex Charfen. Alex shares his story about living a vegan lifestyle, why he initially decided to become a vegan, and how Kevin transformed his way of thinking about health and nutrition and really give the paleo diet a chance.

Since transitioning to the paleo diet, he hasn’t looked back, has never felt better, and has significantly better health than years before. In addition to making this dietary transition, Alex also shares many other lifestyle changes he has made over the years to improve his health, increase his energy, and get better sleep.

“Anyone who transitions from what they would normally eat to unprocessed, whole foods will see a massive improvement.” Alex Charfen

In This Episode You Will Learn:

• Why Alex Charfen believes the vegan diet gave him a “false sense of momentum.”
• His journey from veganism to the paleo diet.
• His morning routine and why he hyper-rehydrates first thing every morning.
• Why water quality is so important and what steps he took to improve the water quality in his business and home.
• The chemical fluoride in water contains other harmful ingredients.
• Why Alex believes water Is a gateway to success.
• Why he takes “primal walks” at sunrise every morning.

Dominic D’Agostino is an associate professor for the Department of Molecular Pharmacology and Physiology at the University of South Florida and is also a visiting senior research scientist at the Institute for Human and Machine Cognition. His experience in the field is one of the many reasons why I think he’s the foremost expert when it comes to the topic of ketosis.

In this part 2 episode, Dominic will tell us about some simple and easy to do tricks to further promote ketosis in your body as well as tell us all about exogenous ketones and how it could affect the future of fitness and supplementation.

“Exogenous ketones can be used to acutely induce nutritional ketosis and then sustain it.” Dominic D’Agostino

• Just how fast can an exogenous ketone set your body up for ketosis
• How beginners and athletes alike should take exogenous ketones and when should they be taking it

Key Takeaways:

• Exogenous ketones can then be used to acutely induce nutritional ketosis and then sustain it.
• Exogenous Ketones make your brain more neurocognitively dynamic.
• Exogenous ketones help prevent “glucose withdrawal” symptoms.
