Hello, this is John Vincent and welcome to The John Vincent Podcast, where we explore ancient healing and modern medicine. It’s all about the best ways – both old and new - to help people (both old and new) to enjoy naturally healthy lives. We will be looking at the things that modern medicine suggests we should be doing, the things that ancient healing traditions have been doing for a long time, and at the exciting hypotheses from emerging science.   Good health has fascinated me ever since I started and built a business called LEON. We began by asking the question “Why can’t fast food be good food?” Spoiler alert: It can. Now I want to explore health in all its dimensions. We’ll look at the smallest of details, whilst never losing sight of the bigger picture- the picture that shows how all moving components work together to create a whole. And how politics, economics and profit incentives can sometimes derail that harmony.  Founding Leon has given me have access to the world’s leading doctors, scientists, nutritionists, healers and practitioners of indigenous wisdom. What they’ve told me has often blown my mind.  But it’s also improved my mind, my body and my life.  I’m going to share all this with you and speak to these experts so that they can share what they know with you too. They have a lot of stories to tell. There is magic in science. And every new answer invites many new questions and possibilities. We will explore these, whilst also doing our best to pin down what we currently know about the things we should be DOING – the action we should be taking to keep us well and help ourselves to heal when we need to. As the old saying goes, the only wealth is health. Not just physical well-being, but the harmony of body, mind, spirit, and emotion. We’ll explore what it means to be healthy - and how we can best enjoy the full potential of the human experience.  You know what kind of life you want to live. Whatever it is, I want to bring you the wisdom and knowledge of good people who’ll help you do that. I’m excited to have fun doing it, too.  At LEON, we made great food accessible to everyone. I’m now going to do the same with good health—helping as many people as possible, regardless of circumstances. Whether you’re a billionaire or on a tight budget, you deserve this opportunity and I’ll make sure you get it.

    Ayurvedic Doshas Explained: Vata, Pitta and Kapha with Dr Bhaswati Bhattacharya | Part 2

    What can Vata, Pitta and Kapha tell us about the way our bodies and minds function? In Part 2 of John Vincent’s conversation with Dr Bhaswati Bhattacharya, they explore the Ayurvedic concept of doshas and how these three forces are used to understand movement, transformation, stability and imbalance within the body. Bhaswati explains why Vata is associated with movement, from breathing and circulation to the nervous system and digestion, and how excessive movement may manifest through patterns such as constipation, anxiety, disrupted sleep and neurological symptoms. She explores practical Ayurvedic approaches to calming Vata through warmth, moisture, food, environment and more controlled forms of movement. The conversation then turns to Pitta, the force associated with heat and transformation. Bhaswati connects Pitta with metabolism, interpretation, inflammation and the communication between different systems of the body. John and Bhaswati also examine the gap between scientific discovery and clinical practice and question what can be lost when medicine studies biological processes in isolation. In this episode you'll learn: ◼ What Vata, Pitta and Kapha mean in Ayurveda ◼ Why Vata governs movement, flow, breathing, circulation and the nervous system ◼ Signs Bhaswati associates with Vata imbalance and excessive movement ◼ Using warmth, moisture, food and environment to calm Vata ◼ Why quality of movement matters more than simply moving more ◼ Pitta as the Ayurvedic force of heat, metabolism and transformation ◼ The relationship between Pitta, inflammation, anger and perfectionism ◼ Why scientific evidence can take years to influence medical practice ◼ Kapha as the principle of stability, lubrication and connection ◼ How Ayurveda approaches health through balance between movement, transformation and stability Key Moments 0:00 What are the three Ayurvedic doshas? 01:09 Vata explained as movement throughout nature and the body 03:58 How excessive movement can push Vata out of balance 07:33 Vata and the systems responsible for movement in the body 11:33 Why warmth and moisture can help calm Vata 14:55 Food choices for balancing Vata 16:33 Combining Ayurvedic approaches with pharmaceutical medicine 19:21 Why dance and rhythmic movement can be therapeutic 20:27 What your movement during sleep may reveal 21:39 Bhaswati on being labelled with learning difficulties as a child 23:27 How environment can influence Vata 25:40 Finding the right balance between movement and stillness 27:42 Why children need structured opportunities to move 29:43 Why Vata is considered the driver of the doshas 30:24 Pitta explained as heat, metabolism and transformation 34:55 Why medical knowledge can take years to reach clinical practice 36:47 How Pitta influences interpretation, metabolism and bodily communication 39:12 Pitta imbalance, anger, perfectionism and inflammation 42:09 Why Bhaswati questions reductionist approaches to medicine 43:10 Kapha explained through stability, connection and lubrication Hosted on Acast.

    What happens when you achieve financial freedom, sell your business and realise that money hasn't given you the happiness you expected? In this episode of The John Vincent Podcast, LEON founder John Vincent sits down with entrepreneur, investor and HelpBnk founder Simon Squibb to explore the relationship between money, happiness, purpose, mental wellbeing and the courage to pursue your dreams.

    Brendan Quinn on Mental Health, Psychiatric Care and Why the System Needs to Change

    Mental health problems are rising across generations, but is the way we treat them actually helping people recover? John Vincent sits down with mental health practitioner Brendan Quinn to examine the realities of psychiatric care, medication and the systems built around mental illness. Drawing on nearly 30 years of experience across nursing, private healthcare and mental health services, Brendan shares what he has learned from working directly with patients and families. Brendan reflects on his early work with people diagnosed with severe mental health conditions and the powerful effect that nature, space, movement and human connection could have on their wellbeing. The conversation explores psychiatric medication, institutional care, patient education and the pressures faced by doctors and nurses. Brendan also explains why he believes mental healthcare needs greater innovation and a stronger focus on sleep, nutritious food, relationships, routine, purpose and time outdoors.

    Davinia Taylor on Eating Like a Human; The Discovery That Finally Changed Her Habits Forever And Could Change Your Life Too

    What if changing your life didn’t begin with a dramatic overhaul, but with one small decision that made you feel a little more like yourself again? Actress, bestselling author and WillPowders co-founder Davinia Taylor joins John Vincent for a deeply personal, funny and refreshingly honest conversation about food, energy, behaviour and learning how to listen to your body. Davinia shares a period in her life when she simply wasn’t treating herself particularly well. She felt tired, flat and disconnected from the energetic person she remembered being. Then something surprisingly simple happened: she tried a Bulletproof-style coffee with MCT oil and felt a shift. It wasn’t a miraculous transformation. It was the beginning of a cascade. At the heart of the conversation is a wonderfully simple question: how do we eat like human beings again? John and Davinia explore why modern life can leave us disconnected from our bodies, why food should be about more than calories, and why sometimes the most powerful changes begin with something incredibly small. In this episode: ◼ How one small change became the beginning of a much bigger personal transformation ◼ Why Davinia describes her first Bulletproof coffee as a moment of “hope” ◼ The positive cascade from food to walking, movement, music and self-esteem ◼ What Davinia means when she says we should “eat like a human” ◼ Why she believes traditional, recognisable foods can offer a useful guide ◼ Learning to notice which foods leave you satisfied and which make you want more ◼ Why Davinia prefers intuition to obsessing over calories ◼ Meat, vegetables, natural fats, sourdough, potatoes and bringing back the humble stew ◼ The importance of daylight, movement and starting the morning well ◼ Why sleep is one of Davinia’s biggest priorities ◼ The pressure to have the perfect life - and why Davinia has stopped pretending hers is ◼ Connection, self-esteem and finding joy in ordinary life ◼ Why being willing to make one change can sometimes be enough to start KEY MOMENTS: 0:00 Questioning what we’ve been taught about food 05:26 Why Davinia began challenging modern dietary advice 10:56 Growing up energetic, curious and constantly looking for stimulation 23:58 When food became comfort rather than nourishment 27:38 The Bulletproof coffee that unexpectedly changed something 28:30 “Something shifted” – the beginning of Davinia’s positive cascade 31:59 How walking, music and movement helped bring her confidence back 33:51 Why Davinia still eats bread, potatoes, pastry and proper dinners 45:38 Why meaningful change can start somewhere surprisingly small 56:20 John asks Davinia how to “eat like a human” 58:37 Meat, two veg and bringing back traditional food 01:07:40 Why the way you start your morning can change the rest of your day 01:13:35 Sleep, motherhood and letting go of the perfect-life facade 01:21:10 Why that first dietary change gave Davinia something she had been missing: hope 01:32:08 Whole foods, intuition and asking what your great-grandmother would recognise Hosted on Acast.

    Tony Brown: From Rock Bottom and ECT to Bioresonance, Holistic Health and Finding Purpose

    Tony Brown joins John Vincent to share his extraordinary journey from severe depression and psychiatric hospitalisation to rebuilding his health, relationships and sense of purpose. Tony recalls being sectioned under the Mental Health Act, receiving 17 courses of electroconvulsive therapy and eventually finding his way out of hospital with help from an old school friend. After leaving hospital, Tony continued to struggle with his physical and mental health, at one stage taking 24 pills a day while dealing with arthritis, sciatica, a slipped disc and prostate problems. His search for alternatives eventually introduced him to kinesiology and bioresonance- experiences that led him towards the work he now does at Total Body Health in Wimbledon. The conversation also turns to depression, loneliness, purpose and human connection. Tony shares why meditation, exercise, friendship and asking for help became important parts of his life, while John explores the role of community, nature and face to face conversation in supporting wellbeing. In this episode you'll learn: ◼ Tony’s severe depression and psychiatric hospitalisation ◼ His experience of 17 courses of electroconvulsive therapy ◼ Rebuilding his life after leaving psychiatric care ◼ Discovering bioresonance and frequency medicine ◼ Bioresonance, hyperbaric oxygen and red light therapy at Total Body Health ◼ The connection between physical health, emotional wellbeing and lifestyle ◼ Depression, loneliness, friendship and the importance of community ◼ Finding purpose through meditation, exercise, philosophy and human connection Key Moments: 0:00 Tony Brown’s story and his darkest period 02:00 Christmas Eve 2011, financial collapse 03:40 Psychiatric hospitalisation and 17 courses of ECT 07:11 The old school friend who helped Tony leave hospital 10:08 Rebuilding his life and reconnecting with his future wife 11:30 Living with chronic pain, prostate problems and 24 pills a day 15:09 Tony’s first experience with bioresonance 24:16 Inside Tony’s Total Body Health clinic in Wimbledon 26:41 The clinic’s holistic approach to physical and emotional health 39:10 Client experiences, lifestyle changes and prostate health 43:48 Men’s health, loneliness and why men struggle to talk 46:16 Walking, nature, friendship and community connection 50:14 Supporting recovery through multiple approaches to health 59:12 Depression, mental health and the importance of purpose 1:08:42 Meditation, exercise and Tony’s daily practices Hosted on Acast.

    Robert Verkerk: Natural Health, GLP-1 Drugs, Big Pharma & the Future of Medicine

    What if the biggest problem with modern healthcare isn’t a lack of science, but the way science, regulation and commercial incentives are being used? Dr Robert Verkerk, scientist, ecologist and founder of the Alliance for Natural Health, joins John Vincent for a wide-ranging conversation about natural health, modern medicine, GLP-1 weight loss drugs, personalised healthcare, food as medicine and the future relationship between humans, nature and technology. Robert’s journey began with ecology and environmental science. His work investigating pesticides, agriculture and chemical exposure eventually led him to explore a much bigger question: if human health is completely dependent on the natural world, why are food, agriculture, nutrition and medicine so often treated as separate systems? The conversation explores the regulation of vitamins, supplements and natural substances, Robert’s work challenging European legislation, and his belief that healthcare needs to move beyond simply treating disease towards understanding the complex systems that create health. They discuss ivermectin and the COVID-era debate around medical evidence and informed consent, before exploring the difference between randomised controlled trials and real-world clinical evidence, why exceptional patient outcomes should be investigated rather than dismissed, and how personalised medicine could transform healthcare. The conversation then moves into bioelectricity, biophysics, the vagus nerve, energy medicine, AI, Neuralink and transhumanism, asking perhaps the biggest question of all: do we truly understand what a human being is? In this episode you'll learn: ◼ How Robert Verkerk went from ecology, agriculture and pesticide research to becoming a leading advocate for natural and integrative health ◼ Why Robert believes soil health, food quality, environmental health and human health cannot be separated ◼ How regulation affects vitamins, supplements, botanicals and natural substances including ashwagandha ◼ Robert’s perspective on GLP-1 drugs, semaglutide, intermittent fasting, muscle loss and long-term metabolic health ◼ Why personalised medicine, continuous glucose monitoring, genetics and individual response could change how we approach nutrition and disease prevention ◼ The difference between randomised controlled trials, clinical evidence, efficacy and real-world effectiveness ◼ Why Robert believes unusual recoveries and medical outliers should be investigated more closely ◼ How bioelectricity, the vagus nerve, biophysics and energy medicine could influence the future of healthcare ◼ The ethical questions surrounding AI, Neuralink, transhumanism and technology becoming increasingly integrated with the human body ◼ Why reconnecting with nature, movement, nutrition, intuition and personal responsibility remain central to Robert’s philosophy of health Key Moments: 0:00 Natural health, science and the systems shaping modern medicine 03:30 Growing up in Africa and discovering ecology 12:13 Aboriginal culture, pesticides and chemical sensitivity 24:39 Stress, resilience and the health effects of adversity 29:57 Supplement regulation and founding the Alliance for Natural Health 39:34 Drug regulation, GLP-1 weight loss drugs and risk versus benefit 46:38 GLP-1 drugs, fasting, muscle loss and long-term metabolic health 51:57 Ivermectin, COVID and the debate around medical evidence 55:36 From soil health to human health: why food is medicine 1:03:25 AI, Neuralink, transhumanism and human enhancement 1:07:56 Bioelectricity, the vagus nerve and energy medicine 1:23:51 Personalised health, continuous glucose monitoring and genetics 1:30:21 Intuition, happiness and learning to listen to your body 1:35:23 Clinical evidence vs randomised controlled trials 1:50:57 Biophysics, the future of medicine and the question: what is life?

    Jonathan Ramalho: Ayahuasca, Psychosis and Rebuilding Your Mental Health

    What happens when a psychedelic experience intended to unlock human potential leads to psychosis, psychiatric hospitalisation and a complete loss of trust in your own mind? Jonathan Ramalho joins John Vincent to share the extraordinary story behind Beyond The Pill, his exploration of mental health, psychedelics, human potential and recovery. After years exploring human potential, mental health and psychedelics, Jonathan travelled to Guatemala for an ayahuasca retreat. What began as a blissful out of body experience developed into paranoia, frightening hallucinations and what Western medicine would later describe as drug induced psychosis. Jonathan describes being locked away by the shaman, his family arranging for his sister and her partner to rescue him, returning to London while still feeling unsafe in his mind and body, and eventually spending time in psychiatric care. The conversation explores his experience with antipsychotic medication, his refusal to define himself through a schizophrenia label, and the practices he believes helped him rebuild his life. Sleep, real food, movement, introspection, nature, hope, personal responsibility and supportive community became central to his recovery. In this episode you'll learn: ◼ How Jonathan’s search for human potential led him from filmmaking and entrepreneurship into researching mental health and psychedelics ◼ What happened during his ayahuasca retreat in Guatemala and how a blissful psychedelic experience developed into paranoia, disturbing hallucinations and drug induced psychosis ◼ What psychosis felt like from Jonathan’s perspective and why he compares the experience to carrying an invisible psychological weight that nobody else can see ◼ Jonathan’s experience of psychiatric hospitalisation, antipsychotic medication and rebuilding stability after his psychedelic experience ◼ Why he prefers to view his recovery through the idea of post traumatic growth rather than allowing a psychiatric diagnosis to define his identity ◼ The four foundations Jonathan now prioritises for health: sleep, nutrition, movement and mood ◼ The relationship between personal responsibility, mental health, human potential and the systems people live within Key Moments: 0:00 Jonathan’s story and the search for human potential 8:25 The mental health crisis and exploring psychedelics 11:18 The ayahuasca retreat in Guatemala 14:48 Hallucinations, fear and drug induced psychosis 17:38 Being locked away and rescued by his family 22:43 Returning to London and entering psychiatric care 25:12 Post traumatic growth and rebuilding after psychosis 28:52 Antipsychotic medication and regaining stability 32:44 The four foundations for health: sleep, nutrition, movement and mood 35:41 Biohacking, wearables and learning to listen to your body 41:10 Nature, personal agency and the pressures of modern life 53:15 Community, mental health and would Jonathan recommend ayahuasca?
