408: Andy Hnilo on Biohacking Your Way to Better Skin

Watch the full video interview on YouTube here: https://bit.ly/andyhnilo408 Andy Hnilo (IG: @andyhnilo) is former athlete, model, and actor that had his life turned upside down. On March 20th, 2011, he was struck by a series of large vehicles while crossing a busy street, a trauma that caused seven broken ribs, a collapsed lung, and an extreme compound fracture. Determined to come back even stronger, Andy was able to be back on the runway in less than 3 months. He was able to heal his skin by immersing himself in a diligent skincare routine that included a mineral-rich blend of four clays, organic superfoods, and nutrient-dense ingredients: a process that healed his body. Andy is now the founder and CEO of Alitura, which makes life-changing skin care products with organic superfoods. In this episode, we discuss: Opening up the creative mind Setting your intentions for the day The coach that instilled Andy's athlete mindset Choosing which dream to move forward with… baseball or acting? The life threatening accident that changed the course of Andy’s life Dealing with cystic acne in high school sparked an interest in natural health The healing protocol Andy followed after his accident Being grateful for a second chance at life Focus on what you have rather than what happened to you Hearing “you’ll never do this again” was the motivation Andy needed to thrive Practicing intrinsic motivation Creating a clay mask to heal Andy's abrasions and scars Partnering up with Dave Asprey to launch Alitura The challenges of finding trusted manufacturers Why Andy won’t accept anything less than perfection Necessity is the mother of invention Avoiding burnout by making time for your daily routine Andy’s recipe for Bulletproof Coffee What Andy eats when he breaks his intermittent fast Andy’s daily supplement routine The healing power of consuming organ meats Foods to consume that nourish your skin from the inside out Drinking mineral water naturally revitalizes your skin Getting started with Alitura products Show sponsor: Paleovalley ultimatehealth at checkout Organifi BiOptimizers ultimatehealth10 at checkout Four Sigmatic Related links: Alitura ultimatehealth at checkout Follow Andy Hnilo on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter Andy Hnilo Filmography Listen to Matthew McConaughey previously on TUHP (episode #398) Stu Pederson Erewhon Market Bulletproof Coffee JingHerbs Ron Teeguarden's Dragon Herbs Crosby Taylor Sage Dammers Dave Asprey (books) Listen to Dave Asprey previously on TUHP (episodes #061, #159, #305, and #389) Bulletproof Brain Octane Oil The Butcher Block US Wellness Meats Butcher Box Gerolsteiner San Pellegrino Aquasana Shower Filter Related episodes: Dr. Paul Saladino on The Carnivore Code (#400) 371: Autumn Smith – Healing From IBS & Anxiety, Supporting Regenerative Agriculture, Organ Meats To Support Mental Health 323: Laird Hamilton – Born To Surf, XPT (Extreme Performance Training), Ice Baths & Saunas 304: Trina Felber – Primal Skincare, Remineralize Your Teeth, Foods That Cause Acne 113: Joy Coelho & Jay Denman – JingSlingers • Tonic Herbs vs Adaptogens • The Ultimate Sleep Inducing Elixir Note: Some of the links above are affiliate links.

He is a frequent speaker in international conferences on metabolism, exercise and chronic diseases.

A group of proteins called lectins are the primary defence most plants have against predators... including us (human beings). Today we're discussing how we're going to approach lectins in the "healthy" foods we've been consuming.

202: Dr. Steven Gundry - The Plant Paradox • What Are Lectins? • Fruit Might As Well Be Candy

Dr. Steven Gundry has worked in medicine for over 40 years and is probably best known for my work as a cardiologist and heart surgeon. He now teaches people how to avoid surgery by using his unique vision of human nutrition. Dr. Gundry is the director of the International Heart and Lung Institute and he's the founder and director of the Center for Restorative Medicine. Dr. Gundry is the author of two books and over three hundred articles published in peer-reviewed journals. His latest book is titled The Plant Paradox and is the focus of today's show. In this episode, we discuss: Dr. Gundry was eating "healthy" and exercising daily but his health was falling apart The war that goes on between plants and animals What are lectins? Lectins are one of fundamental causes of autoimmune disease Reversing vitiligo by following The Plant Paradox program Quinoa, squash, cucumbers, and pumpkin aren't healthy foods The microbiome-immune system connection Lectins are found primarily in the peels and seeds Half the world's production of Tums (calcium carbonate) is mixed into cattle food so they keep eating Pressure cookers destroy all lectins minus gluten Stop eating brown rice Should you keep some gluten in your diet? Are grains & beans making you gain weight?

153: Dr. William Davis - Gluten Free Isn't Enough • Undoctored • The Importance Of A High Potency, Multi-Species Probiotic

Dr. William Davis is author of the New York Times #1 bestseller, Wheat Belly, the book that turned the nutritional world by storm by challenging the conventional wisdom of “healthy whole grains.” He is also author of the NY Times bestseller, Wheat Belly Cookbook, and he has a new book on shelves titled Undoctored. Dr. Davis has discussed his views on major media including The Dr. Oz Show, Fox TV, and has been featured in the New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, Huffington Post, and others. In this episode, we discuss: How putting together his new book Undoctored was an emotional experience Health can't come from the healthcare system Grains cause numerous nutrient deficiencies (particularly minerals) How a low fat, vegetarian diet degraded Dr. Davis' health A diet rich in "healthy whole grains" is worse than a diet filled with sugar The conventional medical system is broken How the internet has impacted the doctor/patient interaction Approach your doctor like you would a nasty, rebellious teenager Wild, naked, and unwashed Grain were only added into our diet 10 or 11 thousand years ago Grains are very powerful GI toxins The gluten free industry is deceptive and dishonest Red fife is less bad but it's still bad Can you have grains on a periodic basis? Grains increase your risk for cardiovascular disease A grain free diet doesn't mean deprivation Are pseudograins ok? Dr. Davis' thoughts on rice and corn Arsenic in rice?!? Lectins are GI toxins Is soy a health food (tempeh and tofu)? The demonization of saturated fat, cholesterol, and total fat was never based on science in the first place The paleo diet vs. the Undoctored diet We all need to be on a high potency, multi-species probiotic Dr. Davis' top food sources of prebiotics Dr. Davis' morning routine Show sponsors: Raw Elements TUHP at checkout (free shipping over $100) Sunwarrior Related links: Dr. William Davis - Undoctored (book) Undoctored website and Facebook Page Dr. William Davis' website Dr. Dean Ornish (books) Garden of Life probiotics Renew Life probiotics Related episodes: 294: Dr. Sara Gottfried – Brain Body Diet, Start To Surrender, Reset With Intermittent Fasting 273: Dr. David Perlmutter – Grain Brain • Cholesterol Is Your Friend • What Is Keto Cycling? 215: Robyn Youkilis – Thin From Within • Hot Button Foods • Let Your Intuition Guide You 173: Focus Friday – Going Grain-Free 118: Yuri Elkaim – The All-Day Energy Diet • Sugar, Gluten, & Caffeine Are Draining You • Exercising For Energy Note: Some of the links above are affiliate links.

114: Sean Croxton - The Pursuit Of An Authentic Life

Sean Croxton launched a health focused YouTube channel in 2007 that became an instant hit. In 2008, when nobody really knew what a podcast was, Sean launched his first show, Underground Wellness Radio. The podcast ran for 7 years and he released 348 episodes over this period of time. Underground Wellness Radio focused on all things real food and functional medicine with a bit of personal development, on the side. Surprising to most, in 2015 Sean closed up shop with his brand Underground Wellness and started a new podcast, The Sessions. On his new show, he flipped the focus to personal development with a sprinkle of health. Sean has big plans to focus on and dominate the personal health space for years to come. In this episode, we discuss: Sean Croxton, the early years Sean's social anxiety and his experiment with Paxil The backward education Sean got in college Having faith and expectancy with the work you do You won't receive without giving first The money you earn is in direct proportion to the service you give Stop focusing on the haters The pivot from Underground Wellness to The Sessions The root cause of a lot of health problems resides in the mind The importance of loving what you do for a living Get unstuck by figuring out who you are and what you're capable of The power of putting your authentic self out to the world Growth = happiness Related links: Sunwarrior Sean Croxton's website Follow Sean Croxton on Instagram and Twitter The Sessions with Sean Croxton (podcast) Sean Croxton - Underground Wellness Radio (podcast) Listen to the JingSlingers previously on TUHP (episode # 113) Sean Croxton - The Dark Side of Fat Loss (book) Elliott Hulse (YouTube) Weston A.

This week, we have Dr. Mark Hyman back on the show for round 2. We talk about the subject of his new book, Eat Fat, Get Thin.

Nutritionism has gotten us into a lot of trouble Be smart about buying packaged foods A low-fat vegan diet isn't the answer Meat should be eaten as a condiment Yes vegans and vegetarians can get enough fat from their diets We've been brainwashed by doctors and the media to think that cholesterol is bad Should we consider butter, coconut oil, and palm oil health foods?

The long and short term effects of sleep disordered breathing Sleep trumps everything People who suffer from sleep apnea experience physical changes in their face The 3 types of sleep apnea You don't need to snore to have sleep apnea What physically happens when someone elicits sleep disordered breathing? If you have sleep apnea, your adrenals pay the price Body type doesn't tell the whole story when it comes to sleep disordered breathing If you snore, you have a problem that should be addressed Is the sleep information provided by the Fitbit legit? Sleep apnea fixes include a CPAP/APAP, an oral appliance, postural therapy, and surgery Sleep hacks can be great but if you have a small airway... they won't be enough The best pillow, ever! Sleeping positions... which is best? Being a light sleeper isn't normal Why Mark uses a fluoride paste on his teeth before bed Manage the ratio of good to bad bacteria in your mouth by oil pulling It's not necessary to oil pull for the full 20 minutes Breast feeding helps develop the babies airway An easy way to floss using a floss stick What happens in the mouth, happens in the rest of the body Related links: Dr. Mark Burhenne - The 8-Hour Sleep Paradox (book) Ask the Dentist - Dr. Mark Burhenne's website Follow Dr. Mark Burhenne on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter MyPillow Dirk Pearson & Sandy Shaw - Life Extension (book) Listerine Ultraclean Flosser Dr. Tung's Smart Floss Cocofloss Marni Wasserman's Home-Made Cooking Series: Get In Your Kitchen! - no longer available Sunwarrior TUHP Facebook group Related episodes: 288: Dr. Steven Lin – The Dental Diet • Oxygen Is The Most Crucial Nutrient • Vitamin K1 vs. K2 088: Nadine Artemis – Heal Cavities & Receding Gums | Your Oral Mircrobiome Matters | Simply Brush With Baking Soda 010: Samantha Gladish – Natural Oral Care And Quality Nutrition 116: Dr. Michael Breus – The Mystery Of Sleep • What Is Your Chronotype? • The Best Pillow And Mattress 052: Shawn Stevenson – Sleep Smarter | Living Spring Water | Solutions For Snoring Note: Some of the links above are affiliate links.

We've created a tool that allows you to start practicing and adopting healthy habits, right away. These can be from the podcast or elsewhere. It's time to get organized! You start out by selecting a few habits that you want to adopt from a list of over 100 ideas that come preloaded in the app. They are categorized under nutrition, fitness, sleep, personal care, personal growth, and miscellaneous. You also have the ability to create your own habits. The list of healthy habits included in the app are inspired from episodes of The Ultimate Health Podcast, co-hosted by Dr. Jesse Chappus & Marni Wasserman. Some of their world-class guests include Gretchen Rubin, Lewis Howes, David Wolfe, and Rich Roll. Detailed information describing the habits and how they will benefit you are included. Links to associated podcast episodes are also available within the app. There is a section in the app for keeping notes. This is where you can journal, jot down recipes, and keep track of the benefits you are experiencing as you incorporate new habits. A personal profile in the app keeps track of the habits you are currently practicing along with the habits you’ve already adopted. You can set a daily reminder to help keep you on track. Adopting healthy habits just got easier for you! *Note: Habits app is no longer available

023: Smoothies, Juices, Elixirs & Everything In Between

Besides clean water, smoothies, juices and elixirs are a few of our staple beverages. But, there are so many other healthy drinks we include in our daily routines. On today's show we go deep and get into the nitty gritty of what liquids we consume, when we consume them and how they contribute to our health (and now yours). Often people are able to wrap their heads around the importance of consuming fresh, organic whole foods to thrive but when it comes to healthy drinks, they fail to make the same connection. As adults, the majority of us is water (around 60%) and in children even more so. It only makes sense we rehydrate with the best liquids available. We are excited to share the drinks we consume on a regular basis. We have drinks to get going first thing in the morning, drinks to rest & relax us before bed and everything in between. So pour yourself a glass of your favourite herbal tea, sit back and enjoy the show. In this episode, we discuss: The importance of consuming high quality water throughout the day Yes, you can drink too much water (hyponatremia) Our cold morning elixir recipe The #1 tool we recommend to someone just getting into the health world A fresh coconut - the ultimate starting point for your smoothie The difference between smoothies and juices What juicer is best for you?
