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.

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.

Summary:
Are you having trouble sleeping? In this week’s episode of Peak Performance Podcast, Coach Kyle and Dr. K discuss the importance of sleep, how to improve sleep quality, and what to do if you have trouble sleeping. They cover various topics, including sleep environment, optimal sleep times, and addressing sleep issues. Their advice ranges from simple adjustments in routine to deeper physiological concerns.
Key Takeaways:
Sleep Issues: Here are the types of sleep problems you might have: difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, or waking up early. Often, these issues are caused by a poor sleep environment and routines rather than actual sleep disorders.
Pre-Bed Routine: Reduce stress and stimulation an hour before bed by avoiding screens and blue light; consider using blue light-blocking glasses. Engage in relaxing activities, dim lights, and avoid arguments or work to signal your body it's time to wind down.
Sleep Environment: Ensure your bedroom is dark, cool, and quiet. Use blackout curtains, eliminate electronic lights, and keep the room between 66-69°F. Consider a temperature-controlled mattress for optimal comfort.
Eating Habits: Avoid eating large meals or high-carb foods right before bed. Ideally, finish your last meal 3-4 hours before bedtime, focusing on high-protein, moderate-fat meals to stabilize blood sugar levels through the night.
Consistent Schedule: Maintain a regular sleep schedule by going to bed and waking up at the same time every day. Aim to spend 8-8.5 hours in bed to ensure you get around 7-8 hours of actual sleep.
Supplements: Melatonin, L-theanine, 5-HTP, and chamomile can aid in better sleep. Opt for sprays or melt-away tablets to avoid consuming excess liquids before bed. High doses of melatonin are unnecessary; start with small doses.
Advanced Issues: If you continue to experience sleep problems, it may indicate deeper issues like adrenal fatigue or toxicities. Consult healthcare professionals if basic adjustments don’t resolve your sleep difficulties.

Summary:
In this episode of the "Peak Performance Podcast," Coach Kyle and Doctor K discuss the concept of the optimal diet, outlining general guidelines for healthy eating. They emphasize the importance of high protein, moderate carbohydrates and fats, and minimal sugar intake. The conversation covers the benefits of consuming whole, minimally processed foods and the pitfalls of processed foods laden with chemicals that can negatively affect health. They also delve into the importance of fiber, hydration, and the strategic use of intermittent fasting. The hosts conclude by stressing moderation and flexibility in maintaining a healthy diet.
Key Takeaways:
Optimal Diet Guidelines - The optimal diet consists of high protein, moderate carbohydrates and fats, and minimal sugar. Avoid processed and ultra-processed foods, focusing instead on whole, natural foods. Minimize the intake of foods with more than five ingredients or unpronounceable components.
What Processed Foods are Made of - Processed foods often contain chemicals like mono- and diglycerides, which can interfere with satiety signals. Opt for foods with simple, natural ingredients to avoid chemical additives.
Ratio of Eating Fruits and Vegetables - Favor vegetables over fruits in a 3:1 ratio due to their lower sugar content. Be aware of the Dirty Dozen and Clean 15 lists for pesticide residues, and peel fruits and vegetables to reduce pesticide intake.
Carbohydrates - Choose complex carbohydrates like whole grains, sweet potatoes, and organic white rice. Be mindful of the glycemic index and aim to consume carbs with lower GI values. Consume carbohydrates after protein, fiber, and fat to reduce blood sugar spikes.
Proper Hydration - Drink two-thirds of your body weight in ounces of water daily. Proper hydration helps with toxin elimination and reduces the strain on kidneys. Include electrolytes to maintain balance when consuming large amounts of water.
Intermittent Fasting - Intermittent fasting is not recommended for everyone, especially for women and those not yet at optimal health. It can be beneficial for weight loss in overweight males and for longevity once optimal health is achieved. Use intermittently to manage autophagy and mTOR pathways.
