Culture Apothecary with Alex Clark Key Takeaways  Understanding Big Food: Ten companies own the entity of our food system – these companies have outsized control over our food system, and they care more about profits than human healthOur ancestors would not recognize the “foods” that we eat today; most people do not realize that new ingredients have been snuck into our food supply over the last fifty yearsFollowing World War II, in search of a new market, the chemical companies shifted their focus towards American farmlands and launched a new war on the bugs and pests on American farmlandsThe World Health Organization classifies glyphosate as a known carcinogen, and yet, approximately 280 billion pounds of glyphosate are sprayed on American crops per year; about 80-90% of grain products on grocery store shelves contain very high levels of glyphosate Companies such as Bayer make the chemicals that destroy our soil and give us cancer, then also produce and profit from drugs designed to treat those cancers Studies that go against the interests of the agrochemical companies are rare because those same chemical companies fund the majority of the research in the industry The way that we are farming now is not sustainable; if we continue down our current path of spraying all these chemicals on our food and destroying the soil, then we will only have 55 years of harvests left before plantable soil is gone The fruits and vegetables in the grocery store are losing vitamin and mineral content because the soil they were harvested in is not as healthy as it once wasApproximately 77% of adults between the ages of 17 and 24 are ineligible for military service due to obesity Tips from Courtney Swan: Buy organic, buy local produce from nearby farmers, form a relationship with a local rancher, shop the perimeter of the grocery store, buy real foods with simple ingredients, prioritize protein, and eliminate ultra-processed foodsRead the full notes @ podcastnotes.orgAn integrative nutritionist on a mission to change how America eats, Courtney Swan (aka @realfoodology on Instagram and host of the podcast of the same name) educates Alex on glyphosate, GMOs, how to start shopping for real food, and why parents need to choose between wellness and illness for their kids.  Thank you to our sponsors!  ⁠⁠Masa Chips⁠⁠ | Use code "REALALEXCLARK" for 20% OFF  ⁠⁠Wise Traditions⁠⁠ | Use code “ALEX” for $25 OFF  ⁠⁠Nimi Skincare⁠⁠ | Use code "ALEXCLARK" for 10% OFF  ⁠⁠YRefy⁠⁠ | Call (888) 502-2612  Courtney Swan  Instagram | ⁠⁠@Realfoodology⁠⁠  YouTube | ⁠⁠@Realfoodology⁠⁠  Website | ⁠realfoodology.com⁠⁠  Realfoodology Podcast | ⁠⁠@Realfoodology⁠⁠  Alex Clark Instagram | ⁠⁠@realalexclark⁠⁠  Instagram | ⁠⁠@poplitics⁠⁠  Facebook | ⁠⁠@realalexclark⁠⁠  X | ⁠⁠@yoalexrapz⁠⁠  YouTube | ⁠⁠@RealAlexClark⁠⁠  Spotify | ⁠⁠@Culture Apothecary⁠⁠  Apple Podcasts | ⁠⁠@Culture Apothecary⁠⁠  'Culture Apothecary' ⁠⁠Merch OUT NOW!⁠⁠ Glass tumblers, weekly wellness planners, hats, crewnecks and more.

Found My Fitness - Rhonda Patrick Key Takeaways Tips for maintaining consistency: (1) What gets you excited to work out?; (2) What exercise do you enjoy and have low pain with?; (3) What will you execute consistently?Variables for building strength: (1) Mechanical tension; (2) Number of hard sets; (3) Training muscles at long lengths under tensionFactors that increase the risk of injury: (1) Increase in training load and/or volume when you aren’t prepared; (2) Psychological stress – what happens in the mind affects the body (and what happens in the body affects the mind); (3) Sleep quality is a big lever for injury risk and pain management Form doesn’t move the needle on injury risk – tissue adaptation matters more“The best time to start lifting weights is right now.” – Layne NortonHave joint pain or never exercised? Start with lighter weights and movements that either don’t cause pain or induce less painIt almost doesn’t matter what you start with – do whatever keeps you consistentMost practical tip for protein intake: Shoot for about 1g/lb bodyweight – or more depending on goals, but consume as much as you want balancing other macros to be properly fueled for exercise and recoverySeed oils are contributing to the health crisis – but probably not because they’re inherently bad Seed oils are not innocuous but energy toxicity is a big chunk of what’s happening, we’re eating too much and moving too littleSeed oils are also more representative of consuming more processed foodsBottom line: There is no strong evidence to avoid seed oils, as long as you’re still controlling for overall diet quality and calories – focus on diet quality and the bigger picture“Have guidelines, not rules.” – Layne NortonMost people believe what they want to believe regardless of the evidenceSticking to water is good, but if you switch to no- or low-calorie drink from full calories, it will save a ton of caloriesKeeping your body fat down is the best way to protect your health; how you get there is less important than getting there – the most important thing is consistencySupplements won’t do the work for you but they might help you recover fasterRead the full notes @ podcastnotes.orgGet my exact protocols for boosting levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and enhancing cognition Discover my premium podcast, The Aliquot Dr. Layne Norton is a Ph.D. in Nutritional Sciences, a professional bodybuilder, and a champion powerlifter.

CryptoThe Investor's Podcast (TIP) Key Takeaways  The year 1971 marked the beginning of the era in which the federal government became interested in altering the food supply Nixon and other government leaders knew that food prices would extensively rise following The Nixon Shock This realization kicked off a 55-year gaslighting campaign to change the trajectory of the food supply so that people would overlook the rising cost of nutrient-dense foods If a person eats a diet of Doritos and grains, then he probably doesn’t realize monetary inflation; but if he eats a diet of ribeye steaks, monetary inflation is much more apparent to him Nutrient-dense foods, such as red meat, are increasingly becoming a food of the upper classes Government-influenced dietary guidelines serve the aggrandizement of the political leaders more so than they favor the betterment of the people Once seed oils were no longer viable for industrial applications, large corporations began to market those seed oils as food; this was the first time that Americans began to consume things that were not food  When President Lyndon Johnson was going up for re-election, the cost of eggs was skyrocketing in price; he instructed his surgeon general to write a phony press release saying that eggs were unhealthy so that demand for eggs would decreaseTo this day, people still believe the “eggs are bad for you” press release was motivated by political purposes, and not supported by any scientific evidence The implementation of a hard currency would help to solve the modern crisis in food because it would help to undermine the incentive for the federal government to obfuscate the food supply A hard currency removes the ability for governments to print money, therefore reducing the government’s need to gaslight dietary guidelines “If you’re not healthy, you’re not free. Self-autonomy begins with personal health.” – Matthew Lysiak Read the full notes @ podcastnotes.orgIn this episode of the Bitcoin Fundamentals Podcast, investigative journalist Matthew Lysiak discusses his latest book on fiat food policies, influential figures like Ancel Keys, corporate interests, and the impact of inflation on health.

Modern Wisdom Key Takeaways  “The best diet for you – the individual – is the one that you can adhere to consistently.” – Dr Layne Norton The main reason why diets fail is because people view them as a “diet” instead of a lifestyle changePeople who have lost weight and successfully kept it off say that they had to form a new identity; they had to become someone else Being successful and having fun are not mutually exclusive; just because you give yourself credit does not mean that you cannot strive for morePeople who believe that they need excellent form on exercises to not get injured are actually more likely to get injured than people who think their bodies are strong and resilient Weight loss requires some form of restriction – whether that is calorie restriction, dietary restriction, time restriction, or some variation of those three If you look at the amount of lean mass that people lose while on Ozempic or GLP-1, it is very similar to the amount of lean mass that people lose when they just do the diet with no resistance training or exercise Exercise sensitives your brain to satiety signals Any diet that gets people to eat less processed foods and more satiating foods is going to be a diet that is better than the Standard American Diet A recent meta-analysis showed that for every 10-gram increase in dietary fiber, there was a corresponding decrease in the relative risk of mortality, cancer, and cardiovascular disease On a high-carb low-fat diet, you will not burn much fat, but you also do not store much fat; on a low-carb, high-fat diet, you are burning a lot of fat, but you are also storing a lot of fat A little exercise can go a long way: Four minutes of vigorous exercise per day has been shown to decrease the risk of cancer incidents by 20%If you are trying to lose weight, stop snacking! In America, the average amount of physical activity is less than 20 minutes per day and the average caloric intake is 3500 calories per day – and we’re worried about seed oils and artificial sweetenersDr Layne Norton’s Mt. Rushmore of supplements: Creatine monohydrate (5-10g per day), Caffeine (the original nootropic and performance enhancer), and Whey protein Tier 2 supplement list: Rhodiola rosea, Beta-alanine, Citrulline malate, ginseng, ashwagandha, fish oil, and melatonin Read the full notes @ podcastnotes.orgLayne Norton is a Doctor of Nutritional Science, a powerlifter and an author.

Fortunately, Layne provides all the expertise you need to find the best diets, foods, and lifestyle for you to build the healthiest and best version of yourself.
