Hi Listeners! Are you suddenly finding that the things that used to help you lose weight just aren’t working anymore?

How do you talk about veganism with people who don't share your perspective? Ben and Giacomo discuss the idea of calling non-vegans "pre-vegans," the importance of meeting people where they are, and how their own approaches to vegan advocacy have evolved over time.

In this episode, I talk about why functional lab testing can be such an important tool for women who feel like something is "off," even when their standard blood work comes back normal.

I share why basic labs often miss the deeper issues and how comprehensive testing can help uncover what is really going on beneath the surface. I also walk through

A few weeks ago I published my own heart scans, and one number travelled further than the rest: a 48% drop in plaque over 16 and a half months. The question underneath that video was the obvious one. How? This episode is the answer, and it is also the part I could easily have left out.Three companies analysed the same two scans. HeartFlow found a 48% reduction, Cleerly found a 20% increase, and QAngio found essentially no change at all. Same heart, same images, and a sixfold spread in the absolute
