• 340 - Keto vs Carbs: What Actually Fixes Insulin Resistance with Drew Harrisberg

  "When I was doing keto, a salad would spike my blood glucose. And this is because of the fat. There was so much saturated fat that my glucose tolerance was diminished.

• 339 - Eat Food, Mostly Plants: Cutting Through Nutrition Nonsense with Dr. David Katz

  When the loudest voices in health are selling confusion, fear, and the next quick fix, it's hard to know what — or who — to trust. That's exactly why conversations like this one matter. Dr. David Katz has spent decades cutting through the chaos with uncommon clarity. A renowned physician, bestselling author, and one of the most influential thinkers in nutrition and preventive medicine, his work has helped millions rethink the very basics of how we eat and how we live. In this very special episode, he unpacks what determines human health, what real nourishment looks like, and why choosing it now is more radical — and more necessary — than ever. If you've ever wondered what's true, what's marketing, and what actually moves the needle on well-being, this is a must-listen conversation. What we discuss in this episode: The nutrition pattern humans are biologically built for. Why fiber is non-negotiable for long-term health. Why smart regulations save lives — and what happens when they're missing. How Big Food and Big Tobacco use the same playbook to keep us hooked.  Methylcellulose: what it is, where it comes from, and why it's misunderstood. Why beef tops the list as the most environmentally destructive food. The fundamentals of longevity that anyone can put into practice. The biggest misconceptions most people have about staying healthy. Resources:  https://davidkatzmd.com/ Dr. David L.

• 336 - You Don't Need Meat to Build Muscle - Here's Proof

  "That is one of my core values—to try to live a life of non-violence and not contribute to anyone's suffering in any way, because we're all suffering in our own way, and we're all fighting a battle that everybody knows nothing about. Something as simple as eating can be an act of compassion or an act of violence, and you get to decide" It's not often you come across a person who has graced the front cover of Men's Fitness magazine, and it's even rarer when that exceptionally chiseled person happens to be vegan. In fact, today's guest, Nimai Delgado, is the only one. Nimai is a former IFBB Pro in the Men's Physique category, but there's more to him than just muscles. Raised in a Hari Krishna farming community in the South until he was eight years old, Nimai is insightful, compassionate, and surprisingly relatable. He's garnered nearly one million followers through his multiple Instagram accounts and uses his fame to teach others about the health benefits of a vegan diet. If it can power his kind of mass, it can certainly sustain the average human. This conversation roams from protein myths to ahimsa, public relationship break-ups to nutrition tips. Go for a walk, get to the gym, or start doing squats—you'll want to be active when you listen to this show.  What we discuss in this episode: Nimai's relationship with protein and the misconception around macronutrients Standard bodybuilding nutrition versus Nimai's plant-based routine Growing up in a Hari Krishna community in the South and the concept of ahimsa His very public breakup during the pandemic  Fitness and nutrition tips for the every day person  Finding your "WHY" Nimai's Buddha Bowl recipe VeganFitness.com Vedge Nutrition and the role of supplements Follow Nimai on Instagram @nimai_delgado   Click the link below to support the FISCAL Act https://switch4good.org/fiscal-act/ Share the website and get your resources here https://kidsandmilk.org/ Send us a voice message and ask a question.
