    Steve Burns | Addiction, Pain and Coping Strategies Ep.4 part 1

    Addiction isn’t the problem. Pain is. Steve Burns explains why healing starts with responsibility, not restraint. What if addiction isn’t about lack of willpower, but about trying to survive emotional pain? In Part 1 of this episode, Yalda sits down again with addiction specialist Steve Burns to unpack what addiction really is and why substances, food, work, or habits are often just coping strategies rather than the root problem. They explore why lasting change only happens when someone chooses it for themselves, how unresolved trauma or emotional imbalance drives addictive behaviours, and why commitment, especially self-commitment, matters more than motivation. This is a powerful conversation about responsibility, healing, and why the body and mind are always wired for recovery.

    Yalda Alaoui | Fatty Liver: A Case Study That Changed Everything Ep.3

    Around one in three adults worldwide now live with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, often without knowing it. In this podcast episode, Yalda explains how fatty liver disease is deeply connected to blood sugar dysregulation, chronic inflammation, cholesterol, and visceral fat, not just alcohol intake. Yalda shares a real client case study that proves this diagnosis doesn’t have to be permanent. Yalda walks through a real case from her private practice. A 34-year-old man with long-standing fatty liver disease was facing medication and injections. Instead, he chose lifestyle change, and the results were extraordinary. Yalda Alaoui was diagnosed with two autoimmune diseases (Ulcerative Colitis in 2007 and Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia in 2012) which catalyzed her research into health and nutrition. She traveled the world to find a solution, learning from specialists, nutritionists, naturopaths, and holistic doctors. She is now the founder of Eat Burn Sleep, a science-based anti-inflammatory lifestyle platform helping people improve their health naturally.Follow Yalda on Instagram at @eatburnsleep and www.eatburnsleep.com.Share this episode with someone who’s been told fatty liver disease is “irreversible.”

    Matt Roberts | UK’s Top Personal Trainer on GLP-1s and Preserving Muscle Ep. 2 part 2

    Can GLP-1 weight-loss drugs support health — or are we overlooking the long-term cost to muscle, gut health, and longevity? Matt Roberts joins Yalda to unpack the real-world risks and responsibilities of GLP-1 use and what must be in place to minimise long-term damage. In Part 2 of this conversation on the Eat Burn Sleep Podcast, Matt Roberts and Yalda Alaoui dive deeper into GLP-1 medications, exploring why rapid weight loss often comes with unintended muscle loss and why fat regain is so common when structure is missing. They discuss dosage pitfalls, fatigue, gut side effects, protein challenges, and the critical role of strength training. Matt explains why GLP-1s should be considered only with close medical oversight and habit-based support, and why “nothing feels as good as feeling good” when health is built sustainably.

    Matt Roberts | UK’s Top Personal Trainer on GLP-1s and Preserving Muscle Ep. 2 part 1

    What if the real risk of aging isn’t losing muscle, but losing strength? In this podcast episode, Matt Roberts tells Yalda Alaoui why strength declines faster than muscle after 35, and how this directly affects metabolism, balance, and long-term health. Muscle and strength loss don’t suddenly happen in old age, they begin quietly from our mid-30s and accelerate without intervention. In Part 1 of this conversation, Matt Roberts shares over 30 years of experience in strength, performance, and longevity, explaining why strength loss is more dangerous than muscle loss alone. Together, Matt and Yalda explore minimal effective training, consistency across decades, bone density, menopause, and why protecting strength is essential for health span, independence, and aging well.

    Yalda Alaoui | Chronic Inflammation: The Silent Killer You Need to Control to Improve Longevity Season 4 Ep 1

    What if the biggest threat to your long-term health isn’t something you can feel, but something quietly running in the background every day? In this solo episode, Yalda explains why chronic inflammation is at the root of most modern diseases and how lowering it is key to longevity, immune balance, and feeling well at every stage of life. Yalda breaks down what chronic inflammation really is, why low-grade inflammation is so dangerous, and how it quietly drives conditions such as autoimmune disease, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, hormonal imbalance, infertility, skin issues, and Alzheimer’s. Drawing on her personal health journey and years of research, she explains the early signs to look out for, why blood tests don’t always tell the full story, and how simple daily lifestyle choices, not extremes or biohacks, make the biggest difference to long-term health and longevity.
