E38: Preventative Tips, Peptides, and Advanced Therapies for Your Heart

Summary: 
In Episode 38 of the Performance Podcasting series, hosts Coach Kyle and Doctor K dive deep into heart health. They discuss various preventative measures, dietary recommendations, advanced testing, and therapies to maintain and improve cardiovascular health. The conversation spans practical tips for everyone, specialized advice for those with a family history of heart issues, and advanced treatments for individuals with moderate to severe heart disease. Topics covered include the role of diet and lifestyle, cholesterol management, the importance of exercise, advanced imaging techniques, supplements, peptides, and innovative therapies like Plaque-X and V cells. The episode concludes by emphasizing the importance of working with health professionals and encouraging listeners to take proactive steps for their heart health.
 
Takeaways:
Basics of Heart Health: Diet and lifestyle are foundational for heart health, emphasizing the avoidance of trans fats, limiting saturated fats, and managing carbohydrate intake while focusing on whole, natural foods. Proper cholesterol management requires understanding different types of cholesterol and focusing on triglycerides and ApoB for accurate risk assessment.
Preventative Measures: Regular exercise, including strength training 2-3 times a week and daily walks, is crucial, especially for those with a family history of heart disease. Supplementation with fat-soluble vitamins (D, A, K, and E) and specific supplements like red rice yeast extract, GG-Gold, and CoQ10 can effectively manage cholesterol levels.
Advanced Testing: Comprehensive lipid panels that include markers like ApoB and VLDL are necessary for an accurate heart health assessment. Advanced imaging techniques, such as the coronary calcium score scan, provide detailed risk assessments by measuring calcium deposits in the arteries.
Moderate to Severe Heart Disease Treatments: Advanced treatments like EDTA chelation and Plaque-X can significantly improve arterial health by removing heavy metals and calcium buildup. While effective, these treatments can be costly, typically ranging from $250 to $500 per session.
Peptides and Stem Cell Therapies: Peptides like Thymosin Beta-4 (TB-500) and peptide bioregulators aid in regenerating heart tissue and improving heart function. Stem cell therapies, including IV stem cells and exosomes, offer targeted treatment options for heart health improvement.
Importance of Professional Guidance:  Health coaches and functional medicine practitioners can assist in interpreting test results and tailoring treatment plans, making the journey to better heart health more manageable. Proactive measures and early interventions can significantly improve heart health and prevent long-term cardiovascular issues.
Community and Resources: Engaging with the podcast community by following, rating, and sharing helps spread high-quality health information. Listeners are encouraged to reach out to the hosts for personalized advice and guidance, fostering a collaborative effort towards better heart health.

E34: Health-Focused Home Design with Dr. Leila Doolittle

Summary:
In this podcast episode, we are joined with Coach Kyle and Dr. Leila and they discussed how to create healthy living spaces, emphasizing the importance of air quality, mold prevention, and the use of non-toxic materials. Coach Kyle shares his background in construction and how his own health challenges led him to focus on building healthier homes. The conversation covers practical tips for improving air quality, the dangers of mold and toxins in homes, and strategies for maintaining cleanliness. They also touch on the importance of resilience, both biologically and environmentally, to handle mold and other toxins effectively.
 
Meet Dr. Leila Doolittle:
Doctor of Chiropractic specializing in Functional Medicine, Holistic Neurology, Epigenetics and Bioenergetics. Over the past 8 years in practice she has developed protocols that create profound states of optimal wellness physically, mentally and emotionally, and spiritually. Her philosophy is to empower you through knowledge and guidance, and to co-create a tailored wellness plan for you and your family that works directly on the core root causes of health concerns to help you achieve a state of true, sustainable and optimal wellness.​ You can find her socials link.
 
Key Takeaways:
Air Quality: Maintaining good indoor air quality is critical for health. To achieve this, use HEPA-plus filtration systems, dehumidifiers, and ensure proper ventilation throughout the home.
Mold Prevention: Mold can cause severe health issues, making its prevention essential. Install mold-resistant drywall, keep humidity levels below 50%, and ensure regular and thorough cleaning to mitigate mold growth.
Cleanliness: Reducing the risk of mold and other toxins largely depends on cleanliness. Regularly clean the home, inspect for leaks, and use non-toxic cleaning agents to maintain a healthy environment.
Resilience: Building biological resilience can help individuals tolerate low levels of mold and other environmental toxins. Focus on overall detoxification, which includes addressing heavy metals and other co-toxins, to bolster the body’s natural defenses.
Use of Non-Toxic Materials: Using non-toxic materials reduces the risk of chemical exposure. Opt for low-VOC products, European-certified materials, and specific non-toxic brands to create a healthier living space.
Travel Tips for Mold and Toxins: Maintaining health while traveling requires careful planning. Avoid Airbnbs due to their inconsistent cleaning protocols, and choose hotels that are either very old or relatively new (built within the last 2-3 years) to minimize exposure to mold and toxins. Ensure the hotel has proper ventilation.
Impact on Pets and Children: Pets and children are particularly vulnerable to toxins. Include them in detox protocols and ensure their living spaces are free from harmful substances to protect their health.

Note from the Hosts: Welcome to our Weight Loss Mini-series “How to Lose Weight the Peak Performance Way”.

Summary
In this episode of the Peak Performance Podcast, Coach Kyle and Dr. K discuss various peptides, supplements, and medications that can aid in weight loss. Emphasizing the importance of safe and sustainable weight loss, they advise against rapid weight loss methods and harmful substances like phentermine. Instead, they explore less aggressive and more natural options such as lipotropic vitamins, the thyroid fixer, Tesofensine, and several injectables like GLP-1 agonists, CJC, and AOD. They stress cycling these supplements and combining them with a healthy diet and lifestyle for optimal results. Please always consult your health care professional before making any changes to your supplements or medications. 
 
 Key Takeaways:
Safe Weight Loss Pace: Optimal weight loss should be 1-2 pounds per week. Losing more than this can lead to muscle breakdown and other health issues. A slower, more sustainable approach is safer and more effective in the long run.
Avoid Harmful Substances: Phentermine is highlighted as a dangerous weight loss drug due to its methamphetamine-like properties that can lead to various health issues, including nervous system dysregulation. It's recommended to avoid such stimulants.
Lipotropic Vitamins: Supplements like Megaburn, which contain methionine, inositol, choline, and B complex vitamins, help stimulate fat burning. They are an excellent option for those looking to lose a moderate amount of weight (10-15 pounds).
Thyroid Fixer: This supplement contains T2, a component that boosts fat burning without significantly altering active thyroid hormone levels. It's an effective tool for enhancing weight loss without the side effects of increasing thyroid activity.
Tesofensine: A triple reuptake inhibitor affecting dopamine, serotonin, and noradrenaline, Tesofensine can increase metabolic rate by 5-10% and suppress appetite. However, it carries a black box warning and should not be taken with antidepressants.
GLP-1 Agonists: Injectables like Ozempic, Mounjaro, and Wegovy are GLP-1 agonists that help regulate appetite and digestion, making them highly effective for weight loss. They also have mental effects that reduce cravings.
Growth Hormone Releasing Peptides: Peptides like Tesamorelin, Ipamorelin, and CJC 1295 are beneficial for promoting muscle growth and fat loss. These are anabolic hormones that help shift the body into a more anabolic state.
MOTS-C: This peptide enhances mitochondrial function, which can significantly aid those who are very overweight. It is less effective for individuals with a smaller amount of weight to lose.
5-Amino-1MQ: This oral peptide helps in building muscle strength and endurance while blocking the ability to regain fat. It's especially useful during bulking periods to gain lean body mass.
Importance of Professional Guidance: Working with a healthcare provider or health coach is crucial when using these supplements and peptides. Proper cycling, dosing, and combining with a healthy diet and exercise regime are essential for safe and effective weight loss.

Summary:
In the latest episode of the Peak Performance Podcast, Coach Kyle and Dr. K kick off a three-part series about optimal weight loss. This episode focuses on dieting and the steps necessary for effective weight loss, highlighting the importance of muscle gain and a method called reverse dieting. The hosts argue that the prevalent weight gain issues are more about our modern, convenience-driven lifestyles than a lack of willpower. Building muscle is presented as the key to effective weight loss because it increases the body's metabolic rate. The episode also discusses how to implement reverse dieting to kickstart this process and prepares listeners for upcoming episodes on GLP-1 agonists and peptides for weight loss.
 
Key Takeaways:
Weight gain often results from modern conveniences and the prevalence of ultra-palatable foods rather than laziness or a lack of willpower. Our environments are optimized for convenience, reducing the necessity for physical activity and making it easier to consume high-calorie foods.
 Gaining muscle is crucial for effective weight loss as muscle tissue is metabolically active and burns more calories even at rest. The podcast emphasizes that obesity should be viewed as a "too little muscle" problem rather than solely a "too much fat" issue. Building muscle improves metabolic rates and facilitates weight loss.
 Reverse dieting involves gradually increasing caloric intake while focusing on strength training to boost the metabolic rate. The method starts with a baseline calorie count and involves incrementally increasing it while ensuring a high protein intake to build muscle. This approach prepares the body for a more effective and sustainable weight loss phase.
Effective weight loss should be approached as a slow and steady process. For example, losing 20 pounds might take up to six months, 50 pounds could take 12–14 months, and 100 pounds could be a two-year journey. A gradual approach ensures sustainable weight loss and better health outcomes.
Strength training is more effective for weight loss compared to cardio. If incorporating cardio, options such as walking (zone two) or short high-intensity interval training (HIIT) sessions after strength training are recommended to support fat loss without compromising muscle mass.
After completing one cycle of reverse dieting and cutting, introducing peptides and GLP-1 agonists can accelerate the weight loss process. However, these should be used strategically to enhance results after establishing a solid dietary and strength training foundation.
Working with a coach can provide necessary structure, accountability, and support, making the weight loss journey more manageable and effective. Having professional guidance ensures that the process is tailored to individual needs and goals, enhancing the likelihood of long-term success.
