This week on the podcast Mikki speaks to Dr Marcus Hawkins, general practitioner and collaborator in using low carbohydrate diets to improve health amongst his patients. They discuss his approach, and his patient’s willingness, and the success that he has seen. They discuss his introduction to the approach, his research in the field and why he thinks the NZ guidelines are slow to move in the face of emerging research that clearly shows a benefit. They also discuss Marcus’ thoughts on the ancestral diet for Maori in New Zealand and how the modern diet played a detrimental role in the overall health outcomes.

Dr Marcus Hawkins is a GP in Botany Downs who has spent over 30 years practising medicine, the first 15 as a hospital-based doctor and the next 15 years as a family physician in both the UK & New Zealand. He  discovered the low-carb, keto diet in 2017 first through the movie The Magic Pill and then through his own extensive reading and research. I have become a passionate advocate for low-carb and keto eating. I am convinced it is the best way of eating for humankind and is based on good scientific evidence

This week on the podcast Mikki speaks to Alexx Stuart, creator of Low Tox Life. They discuss Alexx’s introduction into this area and the many things that are in our environment that can impact on overall health. They also discuss who might be more susceptible and steps to take to help reduce overall exposure.

Alexx Stuart is an educator and change agent who founded Low Tox Life in 2010 after seeing the lack of transparency in our food system, personal care and cleaning products. She's built a movement that's non-judgmental, positive and says low tox peeps are a force to be reckoned with! A columnist for Wellbeing magazine, she is also a sought-after speaker and consultant to businesses committing to change for good.

This week on the podcast Mikki chats to women’s health expert, naturopath Dr Lara Briden about her new book The Metabolism Reset (also called Metabolism Repair for Womenl). This book explores various aspects of metabolic dysfunction, including IR, fatty liver and blood sugar problems and why it’s so important for general health. Mikki and Lara talk about this in relation to Lara’s book but also their own clinical practice, so it’s a good ‘fly on the wall’ discussion

Lara Briden is a naturopathic doctor and bestselling author of the books Period Repair Manual and Hormone Repair Manual — practical guides to treating period problems with nutrition, supplements, and bioidentical hormones. With a strong science background, Lara sits on several advisory boards and is the lead author of a 2020 paper published in a peer-reviewed medical journal. She has more than 20 years’ experience in women’s health and currently has consulting rooms in Christchurch, New Zealand, where she treats women with PCOS, PMS, endometriosis, perimenopause, and many other hormone- and period-related health problems.

This week on the podcast Mikki speaks to entrepreneur, former pro triathlete and accomplished endurance runner Beth McKenzie on balancing life, sport and business and how important family and community is in enabling them to live their best lives in Noosa. They discuss the ins and outs of Beth’s training for the UTA (which she won last weekend) and for Tarawera 104km (coming in 2nd behind Ruth Croft), her Olympic qualifying marathon attempts (Beth is an amazing runner) her diet and supplements, and where the best beer is in San Diego (Beth’s home town). They also talk about the ethos of  Wyn Republic (the apparel company she and husband Luke co-founded), and how it is a staunch supporter of the wider endurance community. This is such a fun conversation that offers insight into the life and times of a real high achiever, you’re going to love it.

This week on the podcast Mikki speaks to Prof Vicki Vieira-Potter about sex differences in adipose tissue. They explore some of the surprising challenges and breakthroughs in research on adipose tissue and oestrogen, particularly post-menopause. They delve into the role of exercise in mitigating the metabolic risks associated with menopause and how certain compounds like ERb ligands and beta 3 adrenergic receptor agonists might mimic the effects of exercise at a molecular level. Finally, they discuss the impact of dietary choices, like a soy phytoestrogen-rich diet and almonds, on obesity, and how sleep restriction can influence our metabolism and glucose response.

Dr. Vicki Vieira-Potter is an Associate Professor in the Department of Nutrition and Exercise Physiology at the University of Missouri, Columbia (MU). Her laboratory studies how estrogen loss affects energy metabolism and focuses on brain and adipose tissue-specific mechanisms. She and her team have demonstrated that aerobic fitness and exercise are protective against metabolic complications associated menopause; they use a variety of animal models and biomolecular techniques to address these research questions. She directs the Rodent Metabolic Phenotyping Core at MU. Dr. Vieira-Potter holds an undergraduate degree from Wheaton College (Norton, MA), and graduate degrees from the University of New Hampshire and the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign, respectively. She completed postdoctoral training at the at Tufts (HNRCA) where she focused on obesity and metabolism. She has 70+ peer-reviewed publications in the area of adipose tissue/cardiometabolic disease.
