    How to Eat Carbs and Lose Weight | Heal Thy Self w/ Dr. G #502

    Episode Description: You have been cutting carbs to lose weight and your blood sugar still will not move. What if you have been avoiding the one carbohydrate that was actually working in your favor the whole time? Resistant starch is a carbohydrate your body cannot digest. Instead of spiking your blood sugar, it travels to your gut bacteria intact, feeds them, and triggers a chain reaction that improves insulin sensitivity, blunts post-meal glucose spikes, and in human controlled trials is linked to measurable reductions in visceral fat. And here is the part that might surprise you: the same food can have a completely different metabolic effect depending on how you prepare it. Cooking and then cooling a potato or a plate of rice meaningfully increases its resistant starch content. Same food. Different biology. In this episode, you will learn:  • How resistant starch feeds your gut bacteria to produce butyrate, one of the most powerful anti-inflammatory compounds in the body, and how that chain reaction directly improves how your body handles blood sugar and insulin  • What the randomized controlled trial data actually shows for weight loss, visceral fat reduction, and insulin sensitivity, including the dose ranges used in the studies and how long it takes to see results  • The exact foods to start with, why you have to go slow, and what happens to your gut if you jump straight to 40 grams a day This is a free tool. No supplement required. Product reviews assess both brand transparency and product quality. If a company doesn’t respond to our outreach, it doesn’t automatically mean their product is low quality but it does mean they’re failing their customers on transparency and communication. We reach out multiple times. No response isn’t an oversight, it's a choice. And consumers deserve better.

Episode Description: You have been running from yourself for a very long time. The restlessness, the worry, the relationships that keep ending the same way, the money that never feels like enough. None of that is who you actually are. It is what you learned. Danny Morel is back on Heal Thy Self for the second time, and this conversation goes deeper than the first. Danny had the picture perfect life. The money, the business, the house, the marriage, the admiration. And he was completely disconnected from himself. It took an affair, a divorce, the death of his mother, and a moment on a run reading Eckhart Tolle for everything to crack open. What came through that crack changed everything. This is that story, and the wisdom that came out of it. In this episode, you'll discover:  •   The difference between victim consciousness and creator consciousness, why the shift from one to the other is the thing human beings are most afraid of, and why every relationship, money problem, and health struggle you keep recreating is pointing at something inside you  •   How to tell the difference between true soul intuition and fear masquerading as gut feeling, and why the only way to access that distinction is through silence and direct relationship with the divine  •   Why your partner is a mirror, your bank account is a mirror, and why wanting to fix the reflection without doing the inner work is the single most common way people stay stuck This is the work that makes all the other work possible.

    Scientist Found 5 Things That Boost Testosterone - Here’s What They Are | Heal Thy Self w/ Dr. G #498

    Episode Description: There are over 40 supplements on the market right now promising to raise your testosterone. The vast majority of them are a waste of your money. Some are doing nothing at all. Others may be doing damage. And this episode is not sponsored by a single one of them. After age 35, testosterone drops by 1% every year. For most men that starts to feel like lost recovery, vanishing drive, and stubborn fat around the midsection that will not budge. But low testosterone is not just a gym problem. It travels directly alongside insulin resistance, visceral fat accumulation, cardiovascular risk, depression, and cognitive decline. Out of 40 plus products making claims, only five have actual randomized controlled trial data behind them. Dr. G breaks all five down today, including the exact form and dose used in the research. In this episode, you'll learn:  •  Why KSM-66 ashwagandha is the most clinically validated of the group, how chronic stress is biologically competing with your testosterone production for the same raw materials, and why the form on the label matters more than the brand  •  How Tongkat Ali works by freeing up testosterone that is already in your body but locked away and unavailable, and why it produced a 90% normalization rate in men who were clinically low  •  Why most men with normal testosterone on paper still have low free testosterone, and how magnesium and zinc address the two different sides of that problem Plus where vitamin D actually fits in the stack, the one free intervention that matters more than all five supplements combined, and why deep sleep is where the majority of your testosterone is actually made. Product reviews assess both brand transparency and product quality. If a company doesn’t respond to our outreach, it doesn’t automatically mean their product is low quality but it does mean they’re failing their customers on transparency and communication. We reach out multiple times. No response isn’t an oversight, it's a choice. And consumers deserve better.

    The Most Powerful Peptide You've Never Heard Of (Affects 4,000 Genes) | Heal Thy Self w/ Dr. G #498

    Ebook: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1AUsxg05dXkKFeAa64kC0u16XynnSx68o/view?usp=drive_link Episode Description: Every peptide conversation right now is about GLP-1 drugs, BPC-157, and TB-500. Nobody is talking about the one with 50 years of published research that your body is already making and losing as you age. GHK-Cu is a naturally occurring tripeptide that declines by 60% between the ages of 20 and 60. That decline tracks directly with the loss of skin elasticity, slower wound healing, thinning hair, reduced collagen production, and rising inflammation. In randomized controlled trials it has outperformed Rogaine for hair growth, shown a 55% reduction in visible wrinkles, and been documented to positively affect the expression of over 4,000 human genes. Dr. G calls it his favorite peptide, and his partner uses it on her face every day. In this episode, you will learn:  • How GHK-Cu works as a copper delivery vehicle at the cellular level, why it modulates gene expression across 31% of the human genome, and what that means for tissue repair, inflammation, and biological aging  • The head to head randomized controlled trial where GHK-Cu outperformed minoxidil for hair count, follicle size, and the active growth phase of the hair cycle  • Exactly what to look for when buying GHK-Cu cream, why the peptide is chemically fragile, what packaging and pH range to require, and the red flags that tell you to walk away from a product Timestamps: 0:00 - Intro 1:44 - What GHK-CU Actually Is and How It Was First Discovered in 1973 3:10 - Why a 60% Decline in GHK-CU Between Ages 20 and 60 Tracks Directly With Aging 4:40 - What Makes GHK-CU Different From Every Other Popular Peptide 6:00 - How It Stimulates Collagen, Elastin & the Extracellular Matrix 7:15 - The Human Trial Showing a 51% Increase in Collagen Density From Topical Application 8:00 - The 4,000 Genes GHK-CU Affects (And What the Broad Institute Found) 9:30 - Anti-Inflammatory Effects: Why This Matters for Biological Aging 10:30 - Wound Healing, Angiogenesis & Tissue Repair Across Skin, Bone, Gut and Liver 11:30 - The 2022 RCT: 55.7% Reduction in Visible Wrinkles After 12 Weeks 12:30 - Hair Growth: Outperforming Minoxidil in a Head-to-Head Randomized Trial 14:30 - Why the Lower Dose (50mg/ml) Outperformed the Higher Dose 15:30 - Safety Profile, Contraindications & the "Copper Uglies" Explained 17:00 - How to Buy GHK-CU: Concentration, Packaging, pH & What to Avoid Learn more about your ad choices.

    100,000 Studies Prove This Works — So Why Has Nobody Told You | ft. Dr. Catharine Arnston HTS #497

And almost nobody is talking about it. Catharine Arnston is the founder of Energy Bits, a PhD holder, and the world's leading voice on spirulina and chlorella — the two algae she calls your nutritional and health insurance. She found this world trying to help her sister recover from breast cancer, spent 17 years going deeper into science than anyone else has, and is now nearly 70 years old with more energy, clarity, and vitality than most people half her age. The proof is in everything she says. In this episode, you'll discover:  • Why spirulina's amino acid profile is almost identical to mother's breast milk — and how it protects the mitochondria, clears brain fog, and rebuilds energy at a cellular level without stimulants or crashes  • What chlorella actually does inside the body: pulling out heavy metals, toxins, and excess iron while triggering serotonin production, improving mood, and getting your gut moving  • Why most algae on the market has had its most critical nutrients deactivated — and what to look for to make sure you're getting the real thing Aging is natural. Declining is not.

    Nature’s Ozempic Showed Metformin-Like Results in a Real Clinical Trial | Heal Thy Self w/ Dr. G #496

    Episode Description: Everyone is calling it nature's Ozempic. That is marketing. And it is doing a total disservice to what berberine actually does. Berberine is not a GLP-1 drug. It does not work the same way. The weight loss outcomes are not comparable. And if you are taking it expecting to drop 15% of your body weight, you are going to be disappointed. But here is what the research actually shows, and why Dr. G takes berberine every single day. The clinical evidence on berberine for blood sugar, cholesterol, insulin resistance, and gut health is genuinely compelling. A three month randomized controlled trial in newly diagnosed type two diabetics showed reductions in HbA1c, fasting blood glucose, and post-meal blood glucose that were comparable to metformin. A 2022 meta analysis confirmed it hits triglycerides, total cholesterol, LDL, blood pressure, and insulin resistance markers simultaneously. And the gut microbiome research is a piece almost nobody is talking about.In this episode, you will learn:  •  What berberine actually does in the body through the AMPK pathway, why it is not a GLP-1, and what to realistically expect from it  • Why standard berberine has a major absorption problem, what dihydroberberine is and why it may deliver 2 to 4 times more into circulation at a fraction of the dose  • Exactly how to buy berberine intelligently, what standardization means on a label, which forms to choose, and what to avoid. Timestamps: 0:00 - Intro 1:44 - How Berberine Works in the Body (And Why It's Not a GLP-1 Drug) 3:24 - The Weight Loss Reality: What Berberine Can and Can't Do 4:48 - Blood Sugar and Insulin Resistance: Where the Evidence Is Strongest 6:30 - Comparable to Metformin in Some Trials — What That Actually Means 7:42 - Cholesterol, Triglycerides & Cardiovascular Risk: Berberine's Strongest Evidence Base 9:44 - How Dr. G Uses Berberine in His Own Daily Routine 10:38 - Berberine's Underrated Effect on the Gut Microbiome 12:30 - The Big Absorption Problem With Standard Berberine (And the Solution) 14:22 - Dihydroberberine: 2-4x More Bioavailable in Human Trials 15:18 - How to Buy Berberine Intelligently: Standardization, Form & Third-Party Testing 17:00 - Who Should Take Berberine (And Who Shouldn't) Learn more about your ad choices.

In this fully channeled episode, Dr. G goes inward and lets the voice within speak directly to you. Not about supplements. Not about protocols. About the thing underneath all of it. The parts of you that have been buried underground since childhood. The parts you decided were too much, too painful, too unlovable to let be seen. The parts that are still waiting. This episode is about what healing actually is. Not a process you earn through the right habits, but a remembrance of who you already are. In this episode, you will hear:  • Why the love you have been seeking from everyone around you has always existed inside of you, and what it actually takes to come back to it  • The truth about healing as a return to your natural state, and why no disease can survive a human organism that is fully in alignment  • Your soul contract: why you came here, what your purpose actually is, and how embodying who you are changes the people around you without saying a single word Take a deep breath.
