    The Food Pyramid is a Scam (And What to Do Instead)

    Are you following a "healthy" diet that was actually designed by marketing experts instead of food experts and medical researchers? In this episode, I expose the ugly truth about the Food Guide Pyramid and how this "pyramid-shaped lie" was built on marketing and sponsorships rather than actual science. We’ve been told for decades to build our meals around grains and fear fat, a strategy that has contributed to the explosion of obesity and metabolic disease. Today, I’m sharing my "JJ’s Plate Method" to help you reclaim your metabolism by prioritizing protein, healthy fats, and fiber-rich vegetables. What you’ll learn: (00:05) Why the Food Guide Pyramid was marketing, not nutrition science. (02:28) How USDA priorities favored agriculture and industry over public health. (03:10) What recent research says about dietary guidelines and rising metabolic disease. (04:45) Why MyPlate failed to fix the problems of the original pyramid. (05:04) How low-fat, high-carb eating drove insulin resistance and weight gain. (06:36) Why protein intake is critical for muscle, metabolism, and aging well. (08:16) How to build JJ’s Plate using protein, healthy fats, vegetables, and fiber. (12:22) Why building muscle matters more than following outdated food rules. Love the podcast?

    Why Detox Fads Fail and What Sustainable Detox Looks Like with Sinclair Kennally

    Why do detox cleanses often make you feel worse instead of better? Also, what simple daily habits can support detox without extreme cleanses?

Sinclair Kennally, CNHP, CNC is an award-winning detox expert and the founder and CEO of Detox Nation, where she helps people uncover the root causes of chronic illness. After nearly losing her life to mold and toxic overload, she turned her hard-won recovery into a mission to teach safe, sustainable detox that actually works.

(06:20) Why detox must be a long-term lifestyle approach, especially after 40. (10:26) How bowel regularity and gut motility are the foundation of safe detox. (15:07) Why bile flow is critical for digestion, toxin removal, and metabolic health. (19:04) How toxin overload shows up as anxiety, histamine reactions, and skin issues.

    Lose the Weight Loss Meds with Dr. James Hill

    When coming off weight loss medications, how can you prevent your appetite from surging? Also, how can you keep the weight off? In this episode, I explore with Dr. James Hill what really keeps weight off for good. We break down why the strategies that help you lose weight are not the same strategies that help you maintain it, especially in the era of GLP-1 medications. Together, we uncover the science-backed habits and mindset shifts that can help you create a lifestyle that supports your healthiest, happiest self for life. Dr. James Hill is a world-renowned obesity researcher who’s spent over 40 years studying how people lose weight, and more importantly, how they keep it off. He’s the co-founder of the National Weight Control Registry and author of a new book that helps people transition off GLP-1 medications without regaining weight, all delivered with his signature clarity, compassion, and common sense. What you’ll learn: (05:01) Why only about 20% of people keep weight off long-term and why this number may be even lower. (08:19) Why weight loss and weight maintenance require completely different strategies. (11:22) How GLP-1 medications have changed the landscape by helping more people finally reach their goal weight. (12:17) The three pillars of long-term weight maintenance: appetite management, physical activity, and mind state. (14:38) Why pairing high protein intake with resistance training helps protect muscle and improves metabolic health. (22:22) How “mind state” influences your ability to overcome setbacks. (31:26) Why successful maintainers average around 12,000 steps a day and schedule one hour of planned exercise daily. (35:30) The early signs of weight regain. Love the podcast?
