Dr. Hsu was the VP of International Programs and Medical Director of the Asian Clinic at Joslin Diabetes Center, a teaching and research affiliate of Harvard Medical School.

After 20 years of a distinguished career as an endocrinologist, Dr. William Hsu joined L-Nutra in 2019 as Chief Medical Officer.

In this role, Dr. Hsu leads the clinical development effort at L-Nutra, oversees the Medical Affairs Department, and advances the education and adoption of fasting and Fasting Mimicking Diet as an innovative tool to extend human health span.

This podcast topic is a big interest for me personally as I've been looking into the research on intermittent fasting (and caloric restriction in general) for longevity and health; but we also talk alot about body composition and fat loss here too, so if intermittent or fasting in general is of interest to you, you'll really enjoy this episode.

Here are some of the things we talked about:

· How fasting is a 'good' stressor that helps the cells in our body

· The difference between fasting and starvation

· Fat loss and fasting – metabolic and hormonal benefits

· If coffee or supplements okay to have during a fasting period

· How to make yourself a fat burning machine

· Autophagy for health span

· Diets and foods in the blue zones

· How to use a fasting mimicking diet if you struggle with traditional fasting

Michael Anthony (Unbroken) is a best-selling author, speaker and coach who helps trauma survivors get out of the vortex to become the hero of their own story.

Michael is an advocate for adult survivors of child abuse and has been called the "Tony Robbins of Trauma" and spends his time helping other survivors get out of The Vortex to become the hero of their own story and take their live back.

Michael hosts both The Michael Unbroken and Think Unbroken Podcasts and blogs weekly at www.ThinkUnbroken.com

This podcast needs to come with a warning.

Michael had a horrific childhood and there will be content in here that is difficult to listen to. I also share some of my darker life moments in this episode (things I've never previously discussed online) so this was a difficult episode to press publish on personally. However, these podcasts tend to be the ones that have life changing impact for those that need it, so I've felt the fear and pressed publish anyways (raw and unedited).

I hope it helps those who need it most.

Here are some of the things we talked about:

· Michael's horrific childhood and how to heal yourself from trauma

· Removing your need for external validation.

· What to do if you have toxic parents (or loved ones)

· How to release trauma from your body

· How trauma is stored in the body

· Understanding the nervous system response after trauma

· And much more

LetsGetChecked have been doing my blood work for years and I highly recommend them if you are looking for a discreet way to check your bloods and/or want to track the data (if you geek out on stuff like that like I do)

Here are some of the things you can privately check with their home testing:

• Testosterone or estrogen levels (to make sure sex drive is healthy and firing as it should be)
• Thyroid function (to identify the presence of hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism)
• Cortisol (to check if stress is chronically elevated- something that holds a lot of people back on their weight loss goals in particular)
• Vitamin D (I check this religiously every winter and supplement back the difference)
• B12 Ievels (especially important if following a plant based or vegan diet) 
• Sexual health (thankfully, not my area any more.. but where was this discreet service when I was in college? lol)
• And much more. 

Links for each of the above are here:
Testosterone - http://trylgc.com/briankeane
Thyroid - https://trylgc.com/briankeanethyroid
Cortisol - https://trylgc.com/BrianKeanCortisol
Vitamin - https://trylgc.com/briankeanevitamin
STD testing -  http://trylgc.com/BrianKeaneSTD

If you’re looking for discreet home testing that tracks your results and something a little bit more cost effective than going to your GP for blood work (which I also recommend doing at least once a year if you decideLetsGetChecked isn’t for you) - then head over the website and enter code KEANE30 for 30% off all orders. 

Although getting your blood work is such an incredible tool and I couldn’t recommend it more to understand what’s going on with your body, it can be costly, so hopefully the code helps.

The importance of mindset growing pains – until you go over the edge, you don't know how far the edge is
