You just re-homeostasis.” —Kaitlyn Kuehn “Is there any evidence showing that mushrooms can slow down cognitive decline?” —Jason Wrobel “Reishi mushroom is...

328 - #1 Fasting Researcher: Why Intermittent Fasting Works WITHOUT Calorie Cutting | Courtney Peterson

Switch4Good

326 - Olympian Dotsie Bausch and Jason Wrobel: A Crash Shattered My Body & Confidence - Here’s What Saved Me

Switch4Good

“Recovery—it’s rarely, rarely linear, and never, ever convenient. If you are someone who's used to being in command of their body, it can feel almost like the universe just slammed on the brakes without any warning. That is the loss of autonomy, right? That's one of the most common—and very, very disorienting—aspects of any physical injury. None of us want to hear that setbacks are not failures—they're part of the process. The frustration is normal. Let it come out. Let it work itself through.” -Dotsie Bausch “The mental side—the frustration, the inability to use my body the...

We love to be able to find something that's not only good that we appreciate.” -Dr. William Li “It is possible to turn back the clock on our metabolism, burn fat, and increase longevity, all while being able to enjoy the food we eat. Are you saying we can sleep and fat burn at the...

324 - Menopause & Erectile Dysfunction: Hormones, Muscle Loss & Plant-Based Solutions | Dr. Brooke Bussard

Switch4Good

"Hot flashes are a canary in the coal mine for women. So, women who have more hot flashes, who have more frequent hot flashes, and more intense hot flashes, have a higher risk of cardiovascular disease. People who are on a whole food, plant-based diet usually have fewer hot flashes, and the men have less erectile dysfunction. We lose between 3 and 8% of our muscle mass per decade after the age of 30. And then, for women, it speeds up after menopause, because we sort of are here, and we go off a cliff. Women should not be thought of as this delicate person that can’t lift heavy, that can’t...

323 - What Are the Signs of Burnout? How Chronic Stress Hijacks Your Hormones, Energy & Career

Switch4Good

"Burnout is why I left. I just started talking myself out of it, that we shouldn’t do it anymore. I just kind of ignored those feelings. It’s strange to fall out of love with something that you’ve done every single moment of every single day for a very long time. Maybe it’ll be too sooner than later, right? But right now, that is going to keep it fresh. I want to keep this feeling." -Dotsie Bausch “I’m talking about how important B complex vitamins are for stress, and yet I’m at home, in my hotel room, on the road, grinding so hard that I’m not taking my own advice.

“I’m talking about how important B complex vitamins are for stress, and yet I’m at home, in my hotel room, on the road, grinding so hard that I’m not taking my own advice. I just kind of ignored those feelings. I feel like I am the piece of toast that fell to the back of the toaster oven that we forgot about.” -Jason Wrobel
