Fat-burning Man By Abel James (video Podcast): Real Food, Real Results.

Did you ever dream of being a pro athlete? What happens when your goal becomes impossible? It seems like an uphill battle out there recently, and a new playing field, so to speak. You really need an ally. You need someone who's a comrade, someone who's there. And so often that’s just being there physically for them, but also just being that supportive force in the world of Doritos, Oreos, Facebook and all the rest of it. It's rough out there, so we need to prop each other up where we can. And to help us out, today we’re here with David Nurse, an NBA life optimization coach, podcast host, worldwide motivational speaker, and bestselling author of “Pivot & Go.” A former pro basketball player and coach for the Brooklyn Nets, David has helped more than 150 NBA players really succeed on and off the court.

So, you've heard some of these words that are bouncing all around the inter-webs recently: Carnivore, keto, plant-based, vegan. But do you know the nuances of what all these different words mean? What's the difference between keto and Atkins? What's the difference between clean keto and dirty keto? I mean, we can get really complicated with this. Whether it's plant-based, carnivore, detoxes, cleanses—words are very confusing, more than ever. And as it turns out, the meaning of words actually matters. So today, we're here to dial-in the meaning a little bit, so that you can actually figure out what to put on your plate. No matter what identity or word you're following, there are certain principles you can follow to take your health back into your own hands. So joining us on the show today is our friend, Ben Azadi, best-selling author of 3 books—The Perfect Health Booklet, The Intermittent Fasting Cheat Sheet, and The Power of Sleep—he’s also a health coach, public speaker and host of the Keto Kamp Podcast.

Who’s hijacking the internet? It started out, you'd pick up a phone and you'd call or text one other person. But now, we’re all in these separate little online groups. We're connected but it's also been co-opted. And it attacks us from so many different directions. And no matter how much they try to bury us, we can still find each other, we just might need to try a little bit harder. Well, I’m happy to say that returning to the show today is long-time friend, fellow podcaster, and multi-talented maniac Vinnie Tortorich. Vinnie is a Celebrity Fitness Trainer, speaker, cancer survivor, bestselling author, and creator of the hit documentary Fat: A Documentary. And as usual, he holds no punches in today's interview.

Have you seen the sun today? According to the EPA, Americans spend about 90% of their lives indoors. How does that look for you? If you're looking to improve your energy, sleep, mood and much, much more, getting sun exposure is critical. I do my best to hop outside when weather permits, just about every day to catch the sunrise. Since I started this practice years ago, I have not stopped. And you're about to learn why. Today we're here with Matt Maruca, a researcher, entrepreneur and educator in the fields of photobiology, mitochondria and optimal human health.

Are we living in an experiment? Instead of securing the general welfare of the people and defending and securing our rights of liberty, it seems the powers that be are more interested in poisoning us while taking away our freedoms. It’s time to ditch the confusion and take our health into our own hands. To help us out, Dr. Cate Shanahan returns to the show to help us look at some everyday ingredients that we would do well to remove from our diets all together, including vegetable oils. Dr. Cate went to Cornell and is trained in Family Medicine with a background in biochemistry and genetics. She’s authored three books including The Fatburn Fix, Deep Nutrition, and Food Rules. Dr. Cate Shanahan is also known for creating nutrition programs that include homemade bone broth for many professional sports teams including the LA Lakers. On today’s show with Dr. Cate, we’re talking about... The toxic and inflammatory effects of vegetable oil Why peanuts may not be as bad as we thought The real culprit behind type 2 d

These days, it's fashionable to pop antibiotics like Tic Tacs, and it's almost impossible not to feel pressured into pumping sanitizer onto our hands when we enter or leave any store. But did you know that even occasional use of antibiotics, hand sanitizers, and other germ-killers can wreak havoc on your long-term health? Evidence is mounting that this germophobic clean craze - our obsession with antibiotics, hand sanitizer and sterile environments - is actually making us sicker. Why? Because our bodies were perfectly designed to have a symbiotic relationship with bacteria, protozoa, fungi, and even viruses. When you wipe all of those “bugs” away, your immune system can turn on itself. Hence the current epidemic of auto-immunity. And if we stop to take a quick look at the chemical ingredients in some of these hand-sanitizer, you may notice things like Triclosan, which is an endocrine disruptor and toxic to microbes and can actually cause thyroid issues and a lot of other problems. So in this special throwback

How do you stay fit when you’re trapped in someone else’s house?  Although Dr. John Berardi lives in Canada, he was caught in Arizona when the quarantine started, and was still there when we recorded today’s show.

What can a former FDA Special Agent teach us about America? With big corporations and big government steamrolling small-town businesses and mom and pop shops, it's time to ask ourselves what we want the future of humanity to look like. Returning to the show today to help us out is my friend Gary Collins, bestselling author of The Simple Life book series and host of Your Better Life Podcast. Gary’s professional background includes working in military intelligence and as a special agent for the U.S. State Department Diplomatic Security Service, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

How would you like to print your own money?  Well, unless you work with the Federal Reserve, you’re going to have to get creative.  But in the face of rampant food inflation, growing your own food comes pretty close.  And with the price of food rising globally, we’ve got to get prepared.  Are you ready for this? Are you ready for the price of food to skyrocket?  Health is a survival skill, and also getting access to clean water, and healthy fresh nutrient-dense foods—this is extremely important and it’s only going to become more so because our food system is under attack. So today on the show, we have a throwback episode with Ron Finley, known as the Gangsta Gardener.  A decade ago, Ron planted a curbside garden in the strip of soil in front of his house in LA. The city tried to shut it down, but instead of giving up Ron accidentally started a revolution and changed the game of urban gardening. And he’s here to teach you critical survival skills, the ability to grow your own food, no matter where you

When is it time to stand up for what you believe in? We believe that time is now. We’re hitting pause on our scheduled podcasts and posts to honor and highlight our black brothers and sisters and people of color in June. In this special episode from the Trust & Believe Podcast, you're going to hear directly from our dear friend, Shaun T. Shaun and I got to know each other about 5 years ago now on ABC TV working on a TV show called "My Diet is Better Than Yours." He inspired me in so many different ways, and I'm very thankful to say that we've kept in touch over the years and he's actually been on the Fat-Burning Man Show two times in the past. You know Shaun, long story short, is one of the best motivators I have ever seen in action and one of the best people I know. So for many reasons, I would like to highlight his voice today. There's a lot that we can learn from what he has to say. And I will warn you, it's a very emotional show. But we did keep the language family-friendly, so don't worry about that.

Are you sick of dietary propaganda? Me too. This week's guest has been wiping the floor with ridiculous, government-mandated, top-down nutrition recommendations for decades now. And she actually demonstrates that decreased health actually correlates with increased recommendations from the government. Thanks Uncle Sam. So, returning to the show this week is, of course, international bestselling author Nora Gedgaudas. Nora is certified in clinical nutrition and neurofeedback and is the bestselling author of "Primal Body, Primal Mind" and "Primal Fat Burner" as well as "Rethinking Fatigue⁠"—a cutting edge approach to adrenal health. Nora is the real deal, and I do believe that more people need to be listening to her and her message right now. There is so much wisdom in what she has to say. In this episode we’re talking about: What to do about dietary propaganda How to eat and supplement for a robust immune system What Pottenger's Cats tell us about diet and nutrition Alzheimer's disease and how it's affecting h

Ready to boost your confidence? Don't underestimate the power and importance of morale right now. In the age of internet memes, celebrity gossip, social media, clickbait articles and online haters, it's easy to get pulled into that vortex of negativity. Trust me, we get plenty of hate, especially these days. But you’ve got to keep going. So, how can we ditch those bad vibes and get the confidence we need to take back control of our lives? To help us out, today we're here with Elle Russ, the best-selling author, a TV and film writer, comedian, and host of the popular Primal Blueprint Podcast. We're chatting about… How to ditch jealousy and bad vibes Why our confidence is under attack and what to do about it—this one's really important How to speak up and say ‘no’ How comedy helps us find the edges And tons more.

Are you sick of being stuck inside? You're in good company. When our survival and basic needs are threatened, our trust in authority figures broken and our human rights ignored, it's pretty easy to lose your head. So how can we protect our brain and nervous system in these trying times? Well, I’m happy to say that returning to the show this week to help us out is Eliza Kingsford, a Licensed Psychotherapist and certified Mind-Body Practitioner. She's the author of Brain-Powered Weight Loss, and she's joining me on the show to share: Easy tips for navigating mental health while we're in such close quarters The importance of protecting your nervous system right now How to manage kids and a career, at the same time The science behind why you might be struggling with food cravings more than usual (and what to do about it) And tons more… Read the show notes: https://fatburningman.com/eliza-kingsford-how-to-dodge-cravings-and-protect-your-mental-health Like the show on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/fatburning

Even before the world shut down, 80% of kids don’t get enough exercise. What do you think these numbers look like for grown-ups? Terrifying. Somehow we find ourselves in a world where we need to fight for our right to recess. Even if we're adults. No matter what country we're in. I can't think of a better person to remind us how important it is to go outside and play than our friend Darryl Edwards. Darryl is a former investment banking technologist turned movement coach, author, researcher, and creator of the Primal Play method. He's also a talented musician, as well. Being a creator, some sort of artist, whether that be visual art, theater, performance of any kind, but certainly music and play. These are all very related to each other, and building one of these modalities can help build the others, I believe. On today's show with Darryl, we're talking about: How the phrase "I play" can transform you. Making functional fitness fun again How to take the superhero path What NOT to do in an emergency situation

So how are you doing out there? Pretty rough, right? You feeling a little stressed? I know I am. But it's important to know, especially during times like these, that at our best we can use this stress and put it to good use instead of letting it completely destroy us. And a long-range of studies, unfortunately, have shown that chronic stress caused by things like social isolation, long-term unemployment, untreated depression and more can actually shorten your DNA telomeres, which in turn can speed up the aging process and then just wreak havoc on your health in a myriad of ways. So how can we be proactive and slow or reverse the signs of aging? Well, to help us out, I figure we might as well invite one of our friends and a modern-day superhero on the show, Mr. Brad Kearns. Brad is a New York Times bestselling author, host of the Get Over Yourself podcast, and a top-ranked professional triathlete, who, get this, broke a Guinness World Record in speed golf. And on today’s show we’re discussing: How to support

How would you like to build a thriving business around your passion? Well, the good news is that you can. You can make that happen.

Helen hosts the Primal Alternative podcast on the Wellness Couch which is the #1 ranked health and wellness podcast station in Australia.
