The Gently Used Human with Dr. Scott Lyons

The Robin Hood of Wellness: “Happy, Healthy, Horny” with Max Lugavere


Listen Later

Ever find yourself questioning the jigsaw puzzle of health content out three on the interwebs, wondering if that extra bite of processed food is really playing roulette with your brain and gut health? And amidst the cacophony of dietary do's and don'ts, pondering why the dietary heroes and villains of the internet seem to switch roles and ideas almost daily. 

Enter Max Lugavere, a dynamo in the realms of health and science journalism. With bestsellers like "Genius Foods'' under his belt and the potent voice of The Genius Life podcast, Max doesn't just preach health; he bridges the gaps between diet, brain longevity, and delectable culinary choices. Through his lens, the connection between the foods we devour and the vitality of our minds isn't just a notion—it's a symphony, a dance, a harmonious interplay.

In this episode, Dr. Scott speaks with Max about health in the modern age, delving into evidence-based fitness strategies, the controversy surrounding carbs, and the golden triad of being “Happy, Healthy, Horny” to discover what truly propels us towards a state of well-being.

Join us as we disentangle the confusing webs of health advice, champion evidence over anecdotes and prioritize authenticity over trends. 

Topics We Break Down:

  • Defining ‘health’ in all its facets and what it truly means to be healthy. 
  • Developing resilience through fitness and health.
  • The interconnected nature of metabolic, heart, and neurological health.
  • What is behind overconsumption, underconsumption, and food quality.
  • Returning to our own bodies for information about our health.
