How To Strengthen Your Immune System in 2023 - Dr Jenna Macciochi
In this episode of the podcast, Steve and Jeff sit down with Immunologist Dr Jenna Macciochi to discuss the immune system and give you some tips on how to keep it strong and effective all year round. Dr Jenna shares key foods, vitamins and minerals that you can keep in your toolbox to support your immune system as well as sharing the importance of balance when aiming for a healthy diet and lifestyle using an easy-to-understand “sliding scale of the Western diet” analogy. Dr Jenna also shares her insights into the impact of non-infectious diseases, the benefits of a minimally processed diet pattern such as the Mediterranean diet and specific foods that are comparable to ibuprofen in the research when aiming to reduce inflammation. This episode is packed with information and covers a range of immune health topics including allergies in children, stress-proofing, and expanding your toolbox with resilience strategies, the hormetic effect and cold therapy benefits as well as the effects of intermittent fasting on tired and weary immune cells that you don’t want to keep lying around.

The Collagen Craze - Separating Fact From Fiction
This week Jeff and Steve separate the facts from fiction and address the most common misconceptions around collagen supplements and some of the outrageous marketing claims that some companies are making. In recent years, collagen has become a buzzword, with claims of its ability to improve skin health, joint health, and even aid in muscle building. With so many different products and claims being made, it can be hard to know what's real and what's just hype. In this episode, we’ll explore the differences between different types of collagen, and whether or not there is any scientific evidence to support the claims being made about its benefits. We'll also delve into the debate over whether collagen can help with muscle building by exploring the differences between the amino acids leucine and glycine’s ability for mTOR stimulation and what this actually means. Finally, we'll discuss the importance of getting all the necessary amino acids in sufficient amounts, and explore the efficacy of collagen supplements and other supplements or foods that can help to meet demands. Join Jeff and Steve as they navigate the collagen craze, and learn how to make informed decisions about whether or not to incorporate it into your health and wellness routine.
