Happy Habit Podcast Mathieu Norry

Fasting as we know is doing without food for a period of time. When we fast we stress the body,and the body responds to this fasting by adapting so its prepared for the next time there is a shortage of food. This is how our ancestors lived, given they could go many hours even days without food. And scientists like Prof Valter Longo who I've spoken to before, believe that we can tap into the body's ability to adapt to stresses like a lack of food and reap many biological benefits, from weightloss, to enhanced metabolic function and even to living a longer life.

To explore this subject further I speak with nutritional physiologist Inge Lindseth about how Valter Longo and others have developed a fasting mimicking diet, which involves cyclical fasting without a complete abstinence of food, yet still allowing for the benefits of fasting to occur.

What foods can we eat oon this fasting mimicking diet and how often, plus for how long does the fasting last.

We ask what role does our gut bacteria play in respect of our weight, our metabolic health and how is its diversity is affected by our diet.

We also ask whether we should consume probiotics and if so in what form, supplements or simply food?

Fasting is a form of bodily stress that if used correctly scientists believe can reap many benefits, however, its prudent to say that adoption of a dietary regime that involves fasting absolutely must be done under the supervision of a professional.

We all want to live as long as is possible, and for many years scientists have been exploring the subject of longevity to unlock its secrets with varying degrees of success, and so to explore ageing and metabolism I'm joined physiologist Prof Joseph Baur.

We ask exactly what causes ageing and why there is no consensus on this question.

We hear about calorie restriction and how it has been shown to increase the life of animals by up to 40%.

Dr Baur busts the myth of antioxidants' ability to stave off ageing.

Expect to hear about the molecule NAD, how it declines as we get older which seems to have an influence on the ageing process and we discover NAD's relationship with an enzyme called CD34. Dr Baur also tells us of the groundbreaking work he has done to discover an important NAD transporter that carries NAD from the cell cytoplasm into the mitochondria.

We also ask how do we boost NAD levels and what significance does NMN have?

Plus we hear about the market for anti-ageing NAD supplementation and why one needs to take anti-ageing assertions made by certain companies with a pinch of salt given the lack of clinical trials.

Dr Westman Book: End your carb confusion : https://amzn.to/4bKHBzq

Dr Eric Westman has been working on the front lines of obesity and internal medicine for 2 decades, he's written multiple books and has almost 200,000 youtube subscribers who he regularly updates on all things metabolism so I was very pleased to have him as a guest.

We talk about how to shift that stubborn belly fat that is so troublesome to so many.

Dr Westman tells us if its possible to reverse pre-diabetes or even type 2 diabetes.

We hear about the relationship between insulin resistance and diabetes.

We talk about saturated fat in our diets, keto, high protein, low carb and the associated health benefits.

This a highly informative conversation especially if you're looking for concrete advice on weightloss and healthy eating.

Prof Hanser's book, Music for wellness : https://amzn.to/4dHyd1l


Music is something that every human being connects with. Music can impact our mood, our biology and it can stir up memories but to some it can be hugely transformative when used in therapy.

Today I speak with Professor Suzanne Hanser of the Berklee College of Music whose new book is Music for wellness.

We discover the way in which music is used in a therapeutic setting.

Prof Hanser tells me how music therapy can make a real difference in peoples' lives, such as those facing illness like cancer.

We hear how music therapy can assist Alzheimers patients reconnect with their memories and their family members and more.

Its well known that there is currently a mental health crisis across the world, but the field of psychiatry has evolved little in recent decades and existing drugs used to treat patients have response rates ranging from at best 50 to 70 % depending on the drug.
In addition those taking SSRIs for example for their depression are locked in to their prescriptions for life. So the appetite exists for alternative approaches.
Psycheledic drugs and associated research are now seeing renewed interest, no longer are they solely associated with their recreational use during the hippy era of the 60s but increasingly more and more studies are pointing to their efficacy when it comes to dealing with mental health problems like anxiety and depression.
With that in mind I spoke with research scientist Dr Freiederike Holze who explained what psychedelics are and what we understand about how they work in the brain.
We hear about the remarkable ability of LSD to treat anxiety with long standing results after only a couple of doses.
Dr Holze compares LSD with Psilocybin, and details the benefits of both while also outlining the potential negative effects.
Also expect to learn about how MDMA studies have shown promising results for dealing with PTSD symptoms.
It goes without saying that while psychedlics have been used by humankind for eons, and many people will report a positive experience when they used them for their own therapeutic purposes, scientists must prove their efficacy in a replicable way and in a controlled environment, as frustrating as many may find this, its the only way forward if psychedelics are to become a mainstream approach to treating conditions like depression which blights so many.
This discussion is purely for educational purposes.

Unbeatable Mind book : https://amzn.to/3UOWVp3


To be a soldier requires a particular kind of mindset, discipline and mental toughness. And to be a member of the special forces requires serious mastery of the mind.

In an effort to tap into this mindset I speak with Navy Seal Commander Mark Divine who by his own admission was the archetypal overachiever physically, but it wasnt until he discovered karate and zen meditation that he really tapped into what he was capable of physically and mentally.

We hear about his chaotic family background growing up and how it undermined his confidence which was in contrast with his physical prowess and success in sport up to that point.

Commander Divine talks about how transformative meditation was in how he saw himself and life's challenges, and how it gave him the vital strengths to change career, enter the military and lead a team of 6 navy recruits through the tortuous 9 months of navy seal training which included the infamous hell week.

Divine was 1 of only 19 recruits out of a total of 185 who passed navy seal training, and would go on to spend 20 years in the navy seals.

We explore the 4 key skills that are crucial to Commander Divine's philosophy, including vizualisation and positive self talk.

While the terms 'navy seals', 'special forces', and the 'SAS' will conjure up various perconceived notions you have of that world, I want you to park them, because this conversation focuses on mastering your mind, overcoming that inner negative dialogue which we all engage in to our detriment.

Lets be honest if someone who faced the brutal training and life threatening situations which Commander Divine had to, then I know we can absolutely glean some really great advice to help us deal with our everyday lives.
