Paleo-inspired Nutrition & Healthy Living Coach and keto-adapted Ironman triathlete and marathon runner Nell Stephenson is our guest today in Episode 1096 of “The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show.”

There's a radical shift in thinking happening behind-the-scenes of many elite endurance athletes regarding the optimal nutrition for peak performance. What's most fascinating about this movement is how many of these athletes are making a 180-degree change in their thinking about diet. For a Los Angeles-based Paleo-inspired Nutrition & Healthy Living Coach and keto-adapted Ironman triathlete and marathon runner named Nell Stephenson from Paleoista.com, the change she has made in the way she eats to fuel her body is like night and day. Nell has been a guest twice previously in Episode 399 and Episode 576 where we discussed her book Paleoista: Gain Energy, Get Lean, and Feel Fabulous With the Diet You Were Born to Eat. But now she's back today to discuss how shifting to becoming a fat-adapted athlete has helped her win a couple of races and dramatically improve her race times. Listen in as Jimmy and Nell talk about this change that has happened in Nell, how the Paleo landscape has changed so much in the past few years that it's become confusing, what it was like for her to start training and racing in a fasted/keto-adapted state, how many people are walking around sub-clinically sick and don't even know it, and her upcoming 2-Day Women's Workshop coming May 5-6, 2016. If you or someone you know is interested in ketogenic diets for athletic performance, then DON'T MISS this interview.

Exercise physiologist, nutritional scientist, biokinesiologist, and author Rachel Straub is our guest today in Episode 1094 of “The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show.”

Perhaps you've gotten the bug to start lifting weights for the first time in your life and you find yourself inside one of those big gyms with equipment and free weights galore. What do you do? For most people, they start lifting without any regard to whether they are using good form or not leaving themselves highly susceptible to injury. You could hire an expensive personal trainer for $50-100 an hour to help, but even that isn't automatically going to make sure you are doing the exercises the proper way. This was the concern of an exercise physiologist, nutritional scientist, biokinesiologist, and author named Rachel Straub from WeightTrainingWOI.com who decided to write a book about this topic with photo demonstrations of what not and what to do regarding most exercises entitled Weight Training Without Injury: Over 350 Step-by-Step Pictures Including What Not to Do. Listen in as Jimmy and Rachel talk about where people go wrong in their pursuit of fitness and how she helps fix the most common problems people experience.

Danish health engineer and ketogenic breathing technique creator for treating cancer Misha Sakharoff is our guest today in Episode 1093 of “The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show.”

Cancer is a truly horrific disease that scares most people to their very core. Most people who get diagnosed with some form of cancer believe it is a death sentence. But in recent years, we've been hearing from people like Boston College cancer researcher Dr. Thomas Seyfried that this is a metabolic disease treated with a ketogenic diet. And he's not alone with cancer patients such as Andrew Scarborough and Patricia Daly beating back their brain and eye cancers respectively thanks to a ketogenic nutritional approach being the basis for their healing. For a health engineer from Denmark named Misha Sakharoff at Sakharoff.com, he's created a powerful combination of the Buteyko breathing technique and a ketogenic diet for cancer in what he describes as the Sakharoff Protocol. His goal for his clients is to help them return to a normal life again with long-term recovery. Listen in as Jimmy and Misha talk about how his program is helping people beat back the cancer and other chronic diseases that are plaguing their health.

Neuroscientist and author Michael Graziano is our guest today in Episode 1089 of “The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show.”

Today we have an interview for you that goes a bit deeper into the psychology behind hunger and weight loss. What if it has little to nothing to do with blood sugar, insulin, or a gurgling in your stomach and is all in your head. This is the hypothesis of a Professor of Neuroscience at Princeton University in New Jersey named Michael Graziano who wrote a thought-provoking column for Aeon called The hunger mood that caught Jimmy's attention. He concludes that losing weight and capturing control of hunger and cravings has little to do with anything except your state of mind, your mood, and that we're all at least a little hungry all the time. Michael wrote a book in 2013 about his general thinking on this subject entitled Consciousness and the Social Brain. Although the book itself doesn't specifically address hunger and weight loss, Jimmy and Michael dive deeply into this fascinating subject that might run counter to what you've always believed about how the body and brain works. This is one fascinating discussion you don't want to miss!

Fitness expert, personal development guru, and author Craig Ballantyne is our guest today in Episode 1088 of “The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show.”

Many people live their lives feeling stuck in rut, simply going through the motions of their regular routine, and never even thinking about doing something different or even better than what they are doing right now. But then it happens--you have a special day where everything goes right and you feel so fabulous and unstoppable that you wonder why everyday can't be like this. This "perfect day" feeling is something that a Toronto, Ontario Canada-based fitness expert, personal development guru, and author named Craig Ballantyne from EarlyToRise.com strives to impart on others through his work by living the principles he teaches with his clients. Very longtime listeners to the show will remember Craig being on the podcast talking about his Turbulence Training fitness program way back in July 2009 in Episode 271. Now Craig has shifted gears in helping others become the success they want to be in their career, personal goals, and just life in general. He's outlined the points that guide him in a concise and practical new 2016 book entitled The Perfect Day Formula.

Listen in as Jimmy and Craig discuss why he shifted his work to personal development, how someone can drastically improve their life through a few targeted strategies for success, what the 3-C formula is that he uses and how it works, how and why someone would want to create certain rules of life for themselves, what Craig never does in his lectures anymore as one of his rules, the commitment Jimmy makes to always do this one thing for his followers, the five pillars of transformation that will set you up to accomplish anything, why concentrating on what counts (and figuring out what matters the most) is critical to this working, how to create a vision for your life that you can live by, and Craig's personal battle with anxiety attacks that he was able to overcome to now help others. Today's episode is a bit outside-the-box of the typical diet and health guests you typically hear, but we think you're gonna love this focus on making the best possible YOU there can be. ENJOY!
