One week we’ll spill the (herbal) tea on functional medicine for hormone imbalance, while the next we’ll dive deep into psychedelic assisted therapy, codependency and learning how to say no. Olivia is a clinical herbalist, formulator, entrepreneur, and, most notably, an educator. Each episode is an opportunity to synthesize her education in herbalism, psychology, and a lifetime of health issues into actionable tips on how to not only heal but thrive. Interviews with doctors, therapists, holistic practitioners, astrologers, artists, and storytellers are brimming with raw, human moments and empowering information. Candid and ever curious, Olivia is on a mission to understand the human condition and share what she learns along the way. Above all, her goal is to connect you with the paradigms, practitioners and teachers you can rely on to help get you to the next level.

    S5E21 Why Carbs Are NOT The Cause Of Insulin Resistance, PCOS + Type 2 Diabetes | Calvin Scheller

    Calvin Scheller is an 18-year-old science extraordinaire who began studying and mastering medical literature in order to better communicate with his physicians after his own experience with autoimmune disease at the young age of 13. His courageous journey of self advocacy during a time when he felt alone and baffled by his symptoms led him to memorize, digest, integrate, and teach others about the complex mechanisms within our bodies (and how to heal through nutrition and lifestyle). He is a superb science communicator and now health coach – taking the difficulty out of reading medical studies, and putting the power of their information in our hands. Today, Calvin gives us a master class on insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, PCOS and why carbohydrates are NOT the cause of these conditions. We discuss the dietary factors that contribute to insulin resistance (and the many misconceptions you’ll find online), as well as the best ways to increase your insulin sensitivity and master your metabolic health well into old age.  HERE’S THE JUICE: Why carbohydrates are not the cause of insulin resistance How excess dietary fat is more problematic for insulin resistance than excess carbs or sugar Why saturated fats can be more inflammatory within the context of insulin resistance than plant fats The true mechanism behind insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome: excess fatty acids within our cells How we can burn off the fatty acids that cause insulin resistance and why blood sugar spikes aren’t the FULL issue, they’re more of an effect Why insulin resistance begins and how it’s actually an adaptation How inflammation also drives insulin resistance and other holistic factors you need to take into account like chronic gut infections, to mineral deficiencies like zinc, to stress, processed foods, sleep issues and more Why insulin resistance within the ovaries is specifically tied to PCOS and exactly how to target this with diet and lifestyle   Watch the full episode on What’s The Juice YouTube Channel  To shop our new PCOS protocol “The Cysters Kit” at 15% off, click HERE   To support our ad-free show, shop Olivia’s line of herbalist-formulated supplements for digestion, anxiety, thyroid support, and more by visiting www.organicolivia.com.   Connect with Calvin: Instagram YouTube Connect with Olivia: Follow Organic Olivia  Olivia’s personal IG Organic Olivia on TikTok Read Olivia’s blog posts   Links Mentioned: Alan Aragon’s Research Review Papers

Today she’s answering the question: are GMOs safe for consumption? There are five genetically modified crops on the market that have become so abundant that they’re used in almost all packaged foods… knowing what they are and where they’re found is the key to learning how to eat your way around corruption in our food supply. In this episode, Courtney articulately breaks down the practices being used in agriculture today – clarifying ways we can be supporting farmers doing things right (and tangible ways to not fall victim to our current food system).   HERE’S THE JUICE: What are the five genetically modified foods? WHY do we have such an overabundance of them on the market? What food lobbying is and why soda is more accessible on food stamps than produce How monocropping is negatively affecting farmers   How food hybridization and genetically modifying our crops are not the same practice What the problem with corn is now, and why we are continually overfed and undernourished Why seed oils are in so many of our foods – creation from industrial waste products  The best practices that you can adopt day-to-day to help decrease your consumption of seed oils and reduce inflammation    Connect with Courtney: https://www.realfoodology.com/ IG & TikTok: @Realfoodology The Realfoodology Podcast: https://www.realfoodology.com/podcast Connect with Olivia: Organic Olivia Instagram  Olivia’s Instagram TikTok   Shop my full line of herbalist-formulated medicinal blends: HERE   Mentioned Documentaries: Genetic Roulette (GMO documentary): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FnhB99I86G8 Kiss the Ground (soil documentary): https://kissthegroundmovie.com/ Common Ground (regenerative farming doc): https://commongroundfilm.org/
