There's someone new in your life. They help you write, plan, think through problems. They're available at 2am, when you can't sleep, because they never get tired of listening to you.

You know it's not a person. But your brain isn't always so sure.

One in four Americans have already used AI for their health. A third of people under 30 use it like a therapist. A Harvard study found daily users are 30% more likely to show signs of depression.

That's an association, not proof. But it's the question that's been sitting with me: are these tools making us healthier, or reaching for something that quietly makes us worse?

Dr. Aaron Neinstein is an endocrinologist who's spent his career building technology inside healthcare. We trained together in residency almost 20 years ago, taking care of ICU patients side by side, long before either of us could've guessed where this was headed.

Aaron tells me about the night he almost brushed off his dog swallowing a thread — until ChatGPT told him, at midnight, that it was an emergency. It probably saved her life. We talk about where AI is closing real gaps: the oncology visit patients walk into with zero prep, the colonoscopy prep calls that never used to happen, the ambient scribe that finally let him look at his patients instead of typing notes.

Then we get honest about what it's costing us. Aaron's sleep has slipped 90 minutes a night for four months. His guitar has sat untouched. I told him about my own late nights on Claude Code, and the spirals I've caught myself in that I now recognize as rumination dressed up as productivity.

1:02:18 – How Dr. Aaron makes his own life a health feast

We live in a post-truth world. Anyone can say anything and call it a fact.

Strawberries cause cancer. Beans destroy your gut. Beef tallow is the new health food.

This is what happens when attention is more profitable than accuracy. When influencers sell confusion and call it health advice. Rip Esselstyn has been watching this happen for decades. He is not an influencer. He is the real thing.

What we get into: why the carnivore wave is built on bro science and not evidence. The truth about carbs and why 95 percent of Americans are eating what Rip calls carbage. His father's landmark work reversing heart disease at the Cleveland Clinic. Adam Sud's transformation from 350 pounds and addicted to reversing 15 conditions in eight months on rice, beans, and oatmeal. His 90-year-old mother's Guinness World Record dead hang. And why every nourishing meal is an act of self-love, whether you feel it yet or not.

Inappropriate application of a method is no reason for its abandonment. If it did not work before, that does not mean it cannot work now.

This is about freedom, not discipline. Once you feel it, you will not want to go back.

You set the alarm for 6am. Clothes laid out the night before. The alarm goes off, you hit snooze, and by 6:18 you’ve decided today is a write-off. You’ll start again Monday.

That moment is not a willpower problem. It has a name, and once you see it you cannot unsee it.

Dr. Michelle Segar is back on the show. Her work inspired the name of The Health Feast. She has spent 30 years at the University of Michigan studying why exercise habits fall apart, and she just published the first study of its kind on all-or-nothing thinking in exercise.

Here’s what we get into:

• Why skipping a workout can feel like relief, and what that relief is quietly costing you
• The difference between “I can’t do five days, so I won’t start” and “my plan broke, so I did nothing”
• The perfect workout trap, and how fitness culture trained us to think pass or fail
• POP in the moment: Pause, Open up your options, Pick the joy choice
• Building a movement menu so you can flex when life gets in the way
• The story of what I did within an hour of my wedding, after months of forcing myself to run

You do not need a better workout. You need a more flexible, more forgiving relationship with movement. This conversation shows you where it starts.

Live well and RAK ON,

– Dr. Rak 👊🏽

Dr. Michelle Segar is a motivation scientist at the University of Michigan and one of the leading voices on how people build health behaviors that actually last. Across 30 years of NIH-funded research she has chased one stubborn question: how do we help people stay active inside the unpredictability of real life, instead of quitting the first time the plan breaks?

She is the author of The Joy Choice and No Sweat, and her work has informed the World Health Organization and the US National Physical Activity Plan. Her latest research is the first study of its kind on all-or-nothing thinking in exercise.

You eat well. You move. Maybe you track your cholesterol, your VO2 max, your labs.

But here’s the uncomfortable truth. Almost everything we use to measure health is a proxy. An association. A stand-in for the thing we actually care about.

And the thing we actually care about is simple. Can your body still do the things you love? Will it keep doing them as you age?

That question is what my guest this week has spent his career answering.

Scott Fulton lectures on aging at the University of Delaware and sits on the True Health Initiative Council. In his new book, Function, he builds the framework medicine forgot. Not how to manage disease, but how to measure whether your body can actually do what your life requires of it.

In this episode we explore:

• Why most of what we measure in medicine is a proxy, not a direct answer
• The five domains of functional health, and the blind spot hiding in the one you ignore
• Why fitness can coexist with fragility, but function cannot
• The simple at-home tests that tell you where you really stand
• How Scott’s wife rebuilt her bone density in 16 months
• Why doing a little bit every day beats chasing the optimal program
  

Whether you’re in midlife and want to stay ahead of this, or you’re a little older and want to know where you really stand, this episode shows you what’s possible and what to do next.

59:38 – Making life a feast: try something new, plan to fail

Scott Fulton is a longevity authority and aging educator who came to this work not as a clinician but through engineering, systems research, and failure mode analysis. That background shapes everything about how he thinks. He is the person who walks into a broken system, figures out what to measure, gathers data you can trust, and uses it to fix what’s wrong.

He lectures on aging at the University of Delaware, is a member of the American College of Lifestyle Medicine, sits on the True Health Initiative Council, and is past president of the National Aging in Place Council.

His new book, Function, lays out a framework for measuring functional health span, the five domains that determine whether you can keep doing the things you love as you age. It’s built around 44 self-assessments you can do at home, drawn from standard tests refined over decades of population data. He is also an Ironman triathlete based in Charlottesville, Virginia.

Hey there- Dr. Rak (“rock”) here. When it comes to training and working out, I used to think more was always better. More workouts. More intensity. Less rest.

Several years ago, I became addicted to Spartan obstacle course races, and it has really fueled my training. Early on, I was aiming to train six days a week, often pushing through pain, and I kept getting hurt. Pulled muscles. Knee pain. Cramping in my calves one week before a race I had trained six months for. I thought the answer was to do more. It turns out I had it completely backwards.

Coach Nick Smoot is back on The Health Feast, and this time we are talking about the half of training almost nobody pays attention to: recovery.

Because you don’t get stronger when you train. You get stronger when you’re not training. And if you’re not recovering, you are leaving every single gain on the table.

We get into:

• Why your body can’t tell the difference between a hard workout and a hard day at work
• Why walking might be the most underrated tool you have
• Why the couch is not the same as recovery
• And Nick tells a jiu-jitsu story that will change how you think about working hard.

Whether you are grinding and going nowhere, or you love someone who is, this one is for you.

0:00 Intro
1:54 What recovery actually is
4:11 Two types of athletes: under-recovery vs. over-resting
5:30 Sleep: the greatest recovery tool you have
10:24 Your body can’t tell the difference between training stress and life stress
12:34 Why walking is the most underrated recovery tool
18:04 Why sitting on the couch is not recovery
26:39 How to fuel for training -- and when protein timing actually matters
37:13 Training when sick: the above-the-neck rule
41:12 Rest is not weakness -- it is part of the work
45:10 The jiu-jitsu story: 75% consistent beats 100% burned out

Nearly half of middle-aged men say they feel lonely. One in five admit to having zero close friends.

A couple years ago, I was one of those men. When my wife was diagnosed with breast cancer, I realized I had almost no close friends nearby. That's when I found F3 — a completely free men's movement that changed my life.

Today I'm sitting down with Frank Schwartz (Dark Helmet), CEO of F3 Nation. He went from over 250 pounds and what he calls "curating the museum of himself" to now leading a movement that's reached over 100,000 men worldwide.

In this episode we explore:

• Why the "lone wolf" mindset is destroying men's health
• The three Fs of F3: fitness, fellowship, and faith (and why the order matters)
• How naming, ritual, and identity create deeper transformation
• Why leadership can be lonely — even in a movement fighting loneliness
• What Frank would tell a man who feels completely stuck right now
• The completely free resource any man can access this week

Whether you're a man feeling this isolation yourself or you have someone in your life who is — this conversation will show you what's really going on and what's actually possible.

Live well and RAK ON,
– Dr. Rak 👊🏽

If you’ve been paying attention to all the things: the chronic disease epidemic, a food system full of processed food, a planet that is genuinely struggling, then you feel it. The scale of it. The weight of it.

And then comes the question that stops so many of us cold.

Does anything I do actually matter?

My guest today, Dr. Scott Stoll, has spent more than 20 years answering that question. He’s a former Olympic athlete turned physician who built the largest annual gathering of plant-based healthcare professionals in the world, bringing together thousands of clinicians and changemakers from across the globe. And he is one of the most gifted storytellers I’ve come across in this space — the kind of person who can make you feel something and think something at the same time.

Does anything I do actually matter? After this episode, you’ll agree the answer a resounding yes.

Live well and RAK ON,

Dr. Rak 👊🏽

Hey Health Feasters —

You’re bloated.
Foggy.
Tired.

You’ve cut foods.
Added supplements.
Tried protocols.

Some things improve.
But you still don’t feel right.

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Will Bulsiewicz, or Dr. B, a board-certified gastroenterologist, microbiome expert, and New York Times bestselling author of Fiber Fueled as well as his new book Plant Powered Plus. Dr. B and I unpack what might actually be going on.

Because sometimes the issue isn’t effort.
It’s the diagnosis.

In this conversation, Dr. B breaks down three big ideas:

1. Misdiagnosis is common. The most frequent cause of bloating is constipation, even when you “go every day.” Getting the diagnosis right matters more than trying another protocol.

2. Inflammation isn’t the enemy. Chronic activation is. Seventy percent of your immune system lives in your gut. When the gut barrier breaks down, the immune system stays switched on. That’s very different from the short-term inflammation that helps you heal.

3. Gut health is bigger than food. Sleep, circadian rhythm, stress, trauma, loneliness, and human connection all shape the microbiome. You can’t out-supplement a nervous system that never downshifts.

This conversation reframes gut health in a powerful way.

It’s not just about what you eliminate.
It’s about what you restore.

So if you’ve been trying hard and still feel off, this episode offers a clearer lens for understanding what’s happening, and where to focus next.

Hey Health Feasters —

Have you ever been told your labs are “normal”… and still felt uneasy?

Maybe your cholesterol is “a little high.”
Your blood pressure is “borderline.”
Your doctor says, “Let’s just keep an eye on it.”

And at the same time, your social feed is full of people saying cholesterol doesn’t matter.

Statins are poison.
Carnivore fixes everything.
This supplement will solve all your problems.

It’s no wonder people feel confused.

We’re surrounded by strong opinions and half-truths. And when it comes to heart disease — the number one killer in this country — that confusion carries real consequences.

This week on The Health Feast, I sat down with Dr. Andrew Freeman, a cardiologist at National Jewish Health in Denver and former chair of the American College of Cardiology’s Nutrition and Lifestyle Work Group.

He’s not just reacting to internet trends. He helped shape the actual guidelines.

In this conversation, we talk about:
- What actually causes heart disease
- What heart disease “reversal” really means (and what it doesn’t)
- Whether statins are always necessary
- Why lifestyle medicine works and why and when Western medicine still has an important role
- And how to lower your risk without falling for fads

Dr. Freeman is thoughtful, evidence-driven, and refreshingly human and I know you’re going to love this conversation.

So, if you’ve felt stuck between fear-based medicine and internet hype…
If you want clarity instead of confusion…
If you care about prevention instead of regret…

this episode is for you.

Hey Health Feasters —

Ever feel like you’re doing everything for your health… and it’s still not working?

You’re meal prepping. Following a complicated workout split. Tracking macros. Taking supplements. Watching reels about cold plunges, red light therapy, and blood sugar spikes.

And somehow… you’re exhausted. Burned out. Not even sure what’s working anymore.

This week on The Health Feast, I’m back with Nick Smoot— my coach, a writer, and one of the clearest thinkers I know when it comes to keeping health simple.

We explore why so many of us fall into the trap of over-optimizing — chasing hacks, piling on complexity, and never sticking with anything long enough to see results.

Nick unpacks the power of doing fewer things better, and why most people need to standardize before they optimize — in their workouts, their nutrition, and their habits.

So, if you’re tired of starting over, this conversation will help you clear the noise and get back to what actually works.

Live well and RAK ON,
