Mikkipedia

Mikkipedia is an exploration in all things health, well being, fitness, food and nutrition. I sit down with scientists, doctors, professors, practitioners and people who have a wealth of experience and have a conversation that takes a deep dive into their area of expertise. I love translating science into a language that people understand, so while some of the conversations will be pretty in-depth, you will come away with some practical tips that can be instigated into your everyday life. I hope you

Mini Mikkipedia - The Most Dangerous Phase of Fat Loss

Mikkipedia ·

2026/02/08

Most people don’t quit fat loss at the start, when motivation is high, or at the end, when results are obvious. They quit in the middle. In this Mini Micropedia episode, Mikki unpacks why the middle phase of fat loss feels so uncomfortable, confusing, and tempting to abandon—and why it’s actually where success is decided. Drawing on Seth Godin’s concept of The Dip, Mikki explains how slowing scale changes, rising hunger, reduced novelty, and fuzzy feedback loops can make perfectly normal

2026/02/01

Is body fat gain simply “calories in, calories out”—or is insulin the real puppet master? In this Mini Micropedia episode, Mikki unpacks the loudest argument in nutrition science and explains why both camps are touching real physiology… but neither tells the full story alone. You’ll hear what the carbohydrate–insulin model (CIM) actually claims, how insulin resistance works at the cellular level (IRS/PI3K/AKT, lipid intermediates, inflammation), and why insulin affects appetite, satiety,

https://www.mikkiwilliden.com/mondays-matter-accelerated-pThis week on Mini Mikkipedia, Mikki unpacks one of the most counter-intuitive truths in fat loss: eating better often means eating more food, not less. Many people equate weight loss with shrinking portions and constant restriction, yet this approach usually backfires. In this episode, Mikki explains the critical difference between food volume and energy density, and why swapping ultra-processed, calorie-dense foods for whole,

We love supplements for their promise of better sleep, recovery, gut health, and performance—but what happens when they don’t work the way they’re supposed to? In this Mini Mikkipedia episode, Mikki unpacks why evidence-based supplements like magnesium, melatonin, probiotics, and creatine can have very different effects from person to person.You’ll learn why magnesium threonate and glycinate can feel stimulating instead of calming, why melatonin’s dose-response is often counterintuitive,

In this Mini Mikkipedia episode, Mikki unpacks what the research actually shows about zinc and sleep, with a specific lens on midlife women and endurance athletes. She walks through the proposed mechanisms—GABA-A receptor modulation, neurotransmitter balance, melatonin synthesis, and circadian rhythm regulation—before cutting to the critical point: zinc only appears to improve sleep when it corrects a

In this first Mini-Mikkipedia of 2026, Mikki breaks down why fat gain—especially around the midsection—can occur even when you’re “doing everything right” on paper. Tracking calories, training consistently, and eating well may still fall short if chronic stress is driving the hormonal environment. This episode unpacks the physiology behind stress-induced fat storage, with a particular focus on cortisol, visceral adiposity, and disrupted fuel partitioning. Mikki explains why stressed bodies

As the year wraps up, this Mikkipedia episode invites you to pause—not to reinvent yourself, but to reassess what’s no longer serving you. Rather than buying into “New Year, New You,” Mikki reframes this season as a strategic checkpoint. She explores what it might look like to let go of outdated training practices, rigid nutrition rules, chronic restriction, unexamined supplement habits, and an overreliance on data.The episode also tackles the less obvious clutter: self-limiting identity

It’s festive season, the pours get generous, and fat loss can suddenly feel… mysteriously harder. In this Mini Mikkipedia episode, Mikki breaks down why alcohol has more power than you think — not just because of calories, but because your body treats ethanol like a toxin and prioritises clearing it first. That means acetate becomes the preferred fuel, fat oxidation gets shoved to the back of the queue, and appetite, sleep, and next-day decision-making can all take a hit. Mikki also
