If you’re still eating breakfast like it’s 1995 — cereal, juice, and a mid-morning crash — this episode is your wake-up call. Nate Palmer breaks down a new way to eat that aligns with your body’s natural rhythms, giving you more focus, better workouts, deeper sleep, and steady energy without the 3pm desperation coffee.

You’ll learn how to structure your meals like a modern caveman, why delaying carbs might be the fat-loss fix you’ve been missing, and what a “perfect day of eating” actually looks like — without counting a single calorie.

Plus, apple fritters, macro-snitching children, and why eating to win means playing the long game.

What You’ll Learn:

Why most diets miss the real purpose of food
The surprising link between hunger and mental performance
How carb timing affects blood sugar, sleep, and cravings
What ancient cavemen can teach us about productivity
A simple day-by-day eating structure to boost energy and burn fat
The truth about blood sugar crashes (and how to avoid them)
How to flip your meals to feel energized, not exhausted

What if simple habits like mouth breathing or drinking diet soda are quietly ruining your teeth?

In today’s episode, I sat down with Dr. Erin Sheffield, a dentist, to explore how things like mouth breathing, dry mouth, and diet sodas contribute to tooth decay. Dr. Sheffield shared how mouth taping can help protect your teeth at night by reducing the effects of mouth breathing, and we discussed why fluoride in toothpaste plays a key role in remineralizing enamel. We also touched on some natural alternatives like Hydroxyapatite toothpaste for those wary of fluoride.

Beyond just brushing and flossing, we talked about how making smart choices today can save you from expensive dental work down the line. Dr. Sheffield also emphasized the importance of preventive care, especially when it comes to making informed decisions about your oral health.

Key Takeaways:

Taking care of your teeth isn’t just about brushing twice a day.
Don’t base your dental care decisions solely on insurance coverage.
Diet sodas, even without sugar, are still very acidic and can erode enamel over time.

296: Do You Need TRT? Hormones, Sexual Health, and When to Start Testosterone Ft Patricia Zamora

What if your low energy, brain fog, or poor sleep had more to do with your hormones than you realize?

In this episode, I sat down with Patricia Zamora, a nurse practitioner who helps men improve their health through hormone balance. We talked about how to raise testosterone naturally, when TRT might be a good option, and why some men still don’t feel great even if their lab numbers look normal.

Patricia shared why cardio is key for overall health, especially if you're on testosterone. We also covered how medications like Clomid and Enclomiphene work, and why many regular doctors aren’t fully trained in hormone therapy.

We wrapped up with simple habits that can make a big difference, like walking more and slowing down with breathing or mindfulness. If you’ve been feeling off and want to get back to feeling like yourself, this episode is a great place to start.

Key Takeaways:

TRT Isn’t Always the First Step.
Most doctors aren’t trained in hormone therapy. Don’t assume your GP is an expert.
Hormone issues affect both partners. Couples should learn and work through it together.
