Why You Can't Lose Weight: Inflammation Explained
Accumulate Health
Trying to de-bloat and de-puff? Inflammation is usually at the root of weight loss woes. You've done the detox. You've tried the drops, the shakes, the 21-day reset. It works—for a minute. Here's what I need you to understand: you didn't fail. The quick fix failed you. Quick fixes only address the periphery. They don’t address the underlying inflammation. They can't. Inflammation isn't a surface-level problem you can starve away or supplement out of existence in three weeks. When inflammation becomes chronic, our body goes into metabolic lockdown. Healing our gut—and therefore reducing...

The Cortisol Mistake Happening Every Evening
Accumulate Health
In today's episode, we're talking about optimizing cortisol levels in the evening. We talk a lot about cortisol in the morning. Morning light. Morning protein. Morning routines. All high value, but what may be even more valuable is what happens in our evening hours. From stress (those intensive nighttime conversations), screens, scrolling, blue light, food inputs, alcohol, there is a lot of ground to be made in the evenings. As we have discussed, ideally, cortisol will be really low at night. This is because low cortisol is what permits and promotes a rise in melatonin. Melatonin sends out the...

What Is Cortisol Really? (It's not the bad stress hormone)
Accumulate Health
In today's episode, we're talking about cortisol. If you wake up tired and wired… your cortisol rhythm is likely flipped. And no amount of coffee is going to fix it. I see and hear the scenario on repeat. Stress, stress, stress…must have too much cortisol, belly fat is accumulating, sleep is fleeting and now the person is convinced they have ADHD. Sure cortisol is related to stress metabolism, but that’s only a small part, say 5% of its actual role in the body. Cortisol is really our rhythm regulator, the hormone that decides whether our brain is focused or foggy, our mood is stable or...

Can Organ Supplements Really Boost Your Iron Fast?
Accumulate Health
In today's episode, I'm answering the question, "can eating organ-based supplements help raise iron levels?" There is no clinical evidence that indicates that beef, liver, spleen supplements raise iron levels, it is only assumed. While I believe they can be helpful in conjunction with iron supplements, I have not seen that organ-based supplements alone, can overcome an iron deficiency. However, research does show that eating red meat and organ meats can raise iron levels to some degree. ➡️ Blood Vitality Q+A https://youtu.be/p6kf1Z9VxVk?si=2V1yxgx7zfakPlPS ➡️ Get Dr. Matt's free guide...

After listening to this video, you'll gain clarity on how to...
info_outlineIn today's episode, we're talking about wheat and the myth of "whole grains." Most of us have probably never eaten a real whole grain in our lives. Most of what’s marketed as whole grain is actually a refined, stripped-down, chemically reconstituted version of the real thing.
If you have ever made true whole grain bread from wheat berries, you recognize that what you bought at the store that said whole grain looks and feels nothing like your home milled true whole grain. And this right here is why we have an endless stream of individuals who are not satiated, have all manner of digestive issues, autoimmunity and are becoming more resource deplete with each bite of “whole grains.”
