In this episode of @thehumanupgradepodcast , you’ll learn how to connect the principles of self-coaching to biohacking. You may already be doing some things, but this topic will help you fine-tune your approach in simple, yet powerful, ways.

High performers typically know the value of coaches: experts who can train them and guide them toward goals. But what if you could become your own coach?

Podcast guest Jason Goldsmith emphasizes the value of combining the mental and physical aspects of human performance. He knows, too, that it’s important to learn to coach yourself to achieve any kind of life success you go after. Self-coaching doesn’t mean you do it all on your own, it means that you take charge of yourself, for yourself.

This episode brings these concepts together so you can be in charge of yourself and be confident and purposeful when making decisions.

2022-06-06 03:38:27 Vitamin D #FTW

Here are some tips:

1. The best way to get vitamin D is to expose your bare skin to sunlight in the early day (about 15-20 minutes, but make sure not to burn!)

2. I recommend testing vitamin D levels regularly because genetics play a major role in your vitamin D status, your response to sun exposure, and supplements. If you do supplement with vitamin D, be sure to work with a functional medicine doctor to find the right dose for you.

3. Take your vitamin D with vitamins A and K2, as these three work together to keep calcium where it needs to be in your body. Vitamin D metabolism also requires magnesium (a mineral) so make sure you’re getting enough magnesium too.

2022-06-05 03:34:07 Putting porous tape over your mouth while you sleep might sound insane, but for the past four years, I have taped my mouth every night.
⁠
Here are some benefits:⁠ ⁠
⁠
1. It reduces sleep apnea and snoring: Studies show that in patients with mild obstructive sleep apnea, porous tape over the mouth encourages nasal breathing and can reduce lapsed breathing and snoring.⁠
⁠
2. Reduces cavity risk: When you breathe through your mouth, this sets up an ideal breeding ground for bacteria that can cause cavities and tooth decay. ⁠
⁠
3. Fights bad breath: Mouth breathing can lead to dry mouth, contributing to bad breath. ⁠
⁠
4. Reduces blood pressure: Breathing through your nose increases nitric oxide levels, opening blood vessels. This opening of blood vessels can help lower your blood pressure. ⁠
⁠
5. Strengthens immunity: Our noses can filter the air we breathe, reducing the risk of contracting a pathogen. When you breathe through your nose vs. your mouth, you have an extra layer of protection! Open / Comment

2022-06-03 18:30:49 Do you get an upset stomach when you take your supplements? Here are three tips to help prevent post-supplement nausea:

1. Take them with some fat: Having some fat in your stomach before you take your pills will help you better absorb them and can help prevent an irritated stomach.

2. Go slowly: You may have seen me take 50 pills at once (I’m kind of famous for this), but you might want to take a few at a time slowly, instead of in one big gulp.

3. Check ingredients and vitamin forms: Oftentimes, vitamins will contain extra ingredients and fillers that are harsh on the gut. Also, some forms of vitamins work better with your body and are more absorbable than others. Always check extra ingredients and specific vitamin forms.

2022-06-02 15:51:53 Here are five different ways to fast:
⁠
1. 16:8 intermittent fasting: Skip breakfast and eat your first meal 16 hours after your last meal the previous night.⁠
⁠
2. Danger Coffee intermittent fasting: This is a 16:8 fast but you get to drink a delicious creamy cup of @dangercoffeeofficial in the morning.⁠
⁠
3. OMAD/24-hour fast: Eat one large nutrient-dense meal per day. ⁠
⁠
4. Alternate day fasting: Fast for the entire day every other day and eat normally on the other days. For example, eat nothing on Monday, Wednesday, Friday. Eat normally on Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday.
⁠
5. Negativity fast: This one is more difficult than it sounds. Fast from negative thoughts/ideas. Anytime you notice a negative thought creeping into your mind, interrupt it with positive self-talk.
⁠

2022-05-31 15:39:12 Here’s what to do: ⁠
⁠
1. Remove foods that you’re sensitive to: If your resting heart rate becomes elevated 60-90 minutes after a meal, this may mean you are sensitive to something you ate in that meal. Food sensitivities can cause energy crashes and cravings, so be sure to identify and remove your personal kryptonite. ⁠
⁠
2. Add a moderate amount of high-quality protein: Some great sources are grass-fed beef, lamb, or wild-caught seafood. This will help you stay satisfied. ⁠
⁠
3. Don’t forget the fats: High-quality fats such as MCT oil fuel your brain and your mitochondria, so you have steady energy to take you through your afternoon. Drizzle some MCT oil or extra virgin olive oil on your veggies and choose fattier cuts of grass-fed beef.⁠
⁠
4. Skip the refined sugar: Sure, a little candy right after lunch will give you a temporary boost, but the rapid spike and fall in blood sugar will lead to an energy crash a few hours later, craving for more.⁠

2022-05-30 14:33:40 Here are five other ways to relieve your pain that aren’t Tylenol:

1. Liposomal curcumin (without black pepper): Curcumin comes from turmeric root and has powerful anti-inflammatory properties. Many companies add black pepper extract to enhance absorption. The only problem is that piperine pokes holes in your gut lining, making everything more absorbable, even things you don't want.

2. Cryotherapy: Sudden and intense cold exposure causes your body to release endorphins and special chemicals that reduce pain and inflammation.

3. Boswellia: AKA Indian frankincense, has been shown to inhibit 5-lipoxygenase, an enzyme responsible for inflammation.

4. PEMF (pulsed electromagnetic field therapy): Involves applying a non-harmful magnetic field to a specific area and has been shown to increase circulation, enhance cellular metabolism, and boost healing.

5. Stephania root: Studies show that this herb reduces the production of important pain mediators. Open / Comment

2022-05-27 21:25:51 Which would you choose? ⁠
⁠
Sweet potatoes are lower in anti-nutrient lectins and higher in carotenoid antioxidants than their white counterparts. ⁠
⁠
White potatoes are nightshades and can cause inflammation in people who are sensitive, like me. ⁠
⁠
If you eat white potatoes (or any nightshade vegetable) and wake up the following day with achy joints and a muffin-top, this might mean you have issues with nightshades too, and sweet potatoes will be a better option as a carbohydrate source for you. ⁠
