How soil is our common ground

The business philosophy called Sacred Commerce
Growing up a child of hippy parents
Ryland's personal mission statement

353: Dr. Satchin Panda - Time-Restricted Eating (TRE) & Managing Your Light Exposure

Tue, 26 May 2020 16:33:38 -0400

Dr. Satchin Panda (IG: @satchin.panda) is a professor at the Salk Institute and author of The Circadian Code. He is a frequent speaker in international conferences on metabolism, exercise and chronic diseases.

Dr. Panda's research focuses on how circadian clocks regulate behaviour, physiology, and metabolism.

His discovery of how a blue light sensor in our eyes affect our sleep-wake cycle, depression, and alertness is leading a new revolution in managing light to improve health. Dr. Panda recently discovered that maintaining a daily feeding-fasting cycle – popularly known as time-restricted eating (TRE) – can prevent and reverse many chronic diseases and increase lifespan.

In this episode, we discuss:

How you wake up is the most important part of your day
Getting natural daylight in the morning
The light-dark cycle trains our brain clock
Melanopsin is sensitive to blue light (aka junk light at night)
It takes 2-3 hours to build up your melatonin
Simple solutions to manage light throughout your home
Make sure to get 1-2 hours of bright light every day
Mental health is linked to your sleep-wake cycle
Optimal sleep amounts for all ages (babies to adults)
Time-restricted eating (TRE) = eating during an 8-12 hour window
Every cell in our body has its own clock
Fasting makes your organs function better
Why you should stop eating 2-3 hours before you sleep
Finding the right TRE schedule for you
Stop snacking to help burn fat
Does coffee impact time-restricted eating?
Dr. Panda's personal experience with TRE
How to best manage shift work & your eating schedule
The Circadian Code in men vs. women
The perfect circadian day

Spring is here and it's the perfect time to assess your life and clean up.

Do you have a junk drawer, bathroom, fridge, or closest that needs tending to? Spring is a great time to tackle these projects.

Today we discuss cleaning up, hiring people to help out, changing up your diet/doing a cleanse, and spending time with the right people.

Your physical environment impacts your internal environment (your mind), so this stuff runs deep.

203: Focus Friday - To Eat Or Not To Eat... Lectins

Fri, 08 Dec 2017 22:58:41 -0400

To eat or not to eat... lectins. This is the question we were faced with after our latest episode featuring Dr. Steven Gundry.

A group of proteins called lectins are the primary defence most plants have against predators... including us (human beings).

Today we're discussing how we're going to approach lectins in the "healthy" foods we've been consuming.

After talking to Sarah Wilson (I Quit Sugar) on this week's show, we decided to share our sugar stories.
