  • Great show mostly

    EDIT: I love this show, but I’m a little disturbed. Recently, I listened to the doctor,Dr Mindy Pelz show, and I noticed that they blanked out the word suicide when she said suicide. As a suicide survivor and advocate for a mental health, this disturbs me. I’m quite sure I’m never going to get an answer from the podcast about this, but why would you do that? Why would you blank out the word suicide as if it’s a dirty word, or a curse word? I took away a star because of this, if I get an answer f... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Diagnosed With Parkinson's at 27, He Became a World Record Holder & American Ninja Warrior – With Jimmy Choi
Q: Can you share how openness with family and community affected your journey?
Being open reduced stigma, expanded support networks, and created a collaborative environment where others offered practical help and shared learnings, which in turn reinforced his commitment and reduced feelings of isolation.
Diagnosed With Parkinson's at 27, He Became a World Record Holder & American Ninja Warrior – With Jimmy Choi
Q: What role did nutrition play in your ongoing management of the condition?
He experimented with multiple diets but found sustainability and overall lifestyle compatibility to be key; he favors clean, whole foods, minimized processed foods, and allows occasional indulgences when traveling, aligning meals with medication and activity levels for maximum benefit.
Diagnosed With Parkinson's at 27, He Became a World Record Holder & American Ninja Warrior – With Jimmy Choi
Q: How did exercise specifically impact your Parkinson's symptoms and overall health?
Exercise provided motor and non-motor benefits by retraining the nervous system, improving movement patterns, reducing stiffness, and enhancing mood and cognition through myokine signaling and endorphin release, with the gym acting as a form of meditation and a source of community.
Diagnosed With Parkinson's at 27, He Became a World Record Holder & American Ninja Warrior – With Jimmy Choi
Q: What inspired you to keep going after the diagnosis and the eight-year period of inaction?
Family became the primary driver; after recognizing the fallout moment with his son, he shifted from self-preservation to responsibility and action, gradually building momentum through small, meaningful steps that accumulated into a lifestyle change.
Change Your Body's Fat Loss Thermostat & Crack the Hunger Code - With Dr. Jason Fung
Q: What is our body's fat thermostat and how does it work in simple terms?
The thermostat is the body's homeostatic regulation of body fat driven by hormones like insulin; when it's set high, hunger increases and metabolism can slow, leading to weight regain unless the hormonal drivers are addressed.
