Ever wonder why some foods leave you energized and satisfied while others knock you into a mid-afternoon crash - or make fat loss feel impossible? The answer lies in your blood sugar. And today, we’re breaking down how you can finally take control of it.

In this episode, I sit down with Kara Collier, co-founder and VP of Health at Nutrisense, to uncover how continuous glucose monitoring (CGMs) and smart lifestyle strategies can help you outsmart stubborn fat, reclaim your energy, and build the lean, strong body you deserve in your 50s, 60s, and beyond.

Kara is a Registered Dietitian and one of the leading voices in metabolic health. She’s helped over 150,000 people use real-time data and practical tools to create sustainable change - and today, she’s sharing those insights with you.

What you’ll learn in this episode:

• Why blood sugar spikes and crashes sabotage fat loss, energy, and cravings
• The surprising individuality of how foods affect your glucose (bananas might not be the villain after all!)
• Simple hacks to keep blood sugar balanced - without giving up your favorite foods
• How stress, sleep, and even the time of day can dramatically impact your glucose response
• Why building muscle is one of the most powerful tools for metabolic health
• Supplements and “biohacks” that actually move the needle (and which ones are just pebbles, not boulders)

Whether you’re struggling with stubborn belly fat, daily energy crashes, or just want to feel younger and more vibrant, this conversation will show you how to finally master The Glucose Game.

What if your migraines (or that constant brain fog and fatigue) weren’t just random bad luck - but your body’s fire alarm trying to tell you something?

In this episode of The Over 50 Health & Wellness Show, I sit down with Dr. Elena Gross - neuroscientist, migraine researcher, and founder of KetoSwiss and MigraKet - to talk about brain health, metabolism, and what it really takes to reclaim your energy and vitality after 50.

Dr. Gross shares her own powerful story of battling debilitating chronic migraines, how decades of research led her to discover the nutritional keys to brain health, and why “normal” health standards are selling us short. We unpack how food, toxins, and lifestyle habits impact your brain and body - and most importantly, what you can do about it starting today.

Whether you’ve struggled with migraines, wrestle with fatigue, or just want to keep your mind sharp and body energized as you age, this conversation will give you fresh tools, insights, and hope.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• Why migraines aren’t the “fire” - they’re the fire alarm telling you something’s off
• The surprising link between metabolism, energy mismatch, and brain health
• How toxins and nutrient-depleted foods quietly sabotage your vitality
• Why “normal” health isn’t good enough (and what *optimal* health really looks like)
• Practical steps you can take to reclaim energy, focus, and long-term brain power

Stress. We all deal with it - but few of us realize just how much it’s wrecking our health, our waistlines, and even our ability to age well.

In this episode of The Over 50 Health & Wellness Show, Coach Kevin pulls back the curtain on the sneaky ways unmanaged stress sabotages your body composition, hormones, sleep, and energy. From the evolutionary role of the stress response (hello, saber-toothed tigers!) to the reality of living in modern times with caveman wiring, you’ll discover why your body reacts to traffic jams and nasty emails the same way it once reacted to predators - and why that’s such a problem for your health today.

You’ll learn:

• The difference between acute stress (the good kind) and chronic stress (the body-breaking kind)
• How stress physiology works under the hood (and why it was never designed for 24/7 use)
• The many flavors of stress - biological, environmental, psychological, and even existential
• Why stress sabotages fat loss, muscle recovery, and sleep quality - especially over 50
• Practical, real-world strategies to master your response and turn stress from a foe into a force for strength

From simple tools like breathing, walking, and gratitude, to bigger practices like Stoicism, prayer, and living with purpose - this episode is packed with actionable takeaways to help you manage stress, reclaim your energy, and finally build the lean, strong, capable body you deserve in the second half of life.

So if you’ve ever felt tired, foggy, stuck, or frustrated with your health despite “doing everything right” - this one’s for you.

Tune in now and learn how to stop letting stress run the show and start using it as fuel for your healthiest, strongest years yet.

• The positives of fitness influencers - and how they can provide real ideas and motivation.
• The pitfalls of doomscrolling, comparison traps, and conflicting advice.
• Simple filters you can use to separate trustworthy guidance from empty hype.
• Practical tips to clean up your feed and follow accounts that truly serve your health journey.

What if aging wasn’t about slowing down - but about pushing your limits, chasing bold goals, and tapping into more energy than you ever thought possible?

In this episode of The Over 50 Health & Wellness Show, Kevin sits down with endurance athlete, writer, and barefoot adventurer Ken Posner. From Wall Street cubicles to mountain trails, Ken has discovered that vitality doesn’t fade with age - it expands when you challenge yourself.

We dive into:

• How Ken went from “last kid picked in gym class” to running ultras and summiting mountains barefoot
• Why exhaustion from the office pales in comparison to the energy gained through movement and nature
• The role of fasting, simplicity, and minimalism in building strength and resilience after 50
• How barefoot training restores balance, agility, and natural alignment - critical for staying strong as we age
• Why pushing your body past “impossible” isn’t about punishment, but about empowerment

Ken’s story is a powerful reminder that the second half of life isn’t about decline - it’s about ignition. Whether you’re a weekend walker or dreaming of your first ultra, you’ll walk away inspired to stretch your own “rubber band” and reclaim the energy, confidence, and vitality that are your birthright.

👉 Don’t miss this inspiring conversation - it may just change the way you think about aging, fitness, and what’s possible after 50.

Are seed oils destroying your health… or are they unfairly demonized?

Depending on which corner of the internet you land in, seed oils are either the liquid embodiment of evil or a perfectly fine “heart healthy” fat. So, who’s right? And more importantly, how do you make sense of all this noise?

In this week’s Monday Mile, Coach Kevin breaks down the real*story behind seed oils in a way that’s simple, clear, and (yes) a little entertaining. You’ll learn:

• What seed oils actually are and how they became so common in our diets
• Why Omega-6 and Omega-3 fatty acids matter - and why the ratio is more important than either on its own
• The surprising role processed foods play in our seed oil overload\
• Whether you should avoid seed oils completely - or just cut back
• Smarter swaps you can make in your kitchen for better long-term health

Bottom line? No single food is the villain, but the way we overconsume seed oils in processed foods is a problem - especially if you’re after strong, healthy aging.

Tune in for a balanced perspective that cuts through the fearmongering and helps you make better food choices without losing your mind.

Together, they dive deep into the truth about protein: why most people over 50 are drastically under-eating it, how to close the gap without choking down dry chicken breast all day, and what to look for (and avoid) in protein bars and supplements.
