Let's Get Into the Weeds

BPA is considered food-safe by US regulating authorities, because it is very quickly eliminated from our bodies. However, research is now beginning to uncover the damage it does on the way through. For this episode, I turned my AI research assistants' attention toward the toxicoepigenetics of BPA, and the hormone disruption it causes.

AI delves into research around the genetics and epigenetics of Alzheimer's risk factor gene APOE E4, and suggests some possible targeted nutritional supports that have returned positive results during trials. Might krill oil and curcumin protect against Alzheimer's?

Research is indicating that a Mediterranean-style diet may help ease menopause symptoms.

I asked AI for peer reviewed articles around the genetics of SRY, declining testosterone levels, and possible nutritional assistance. Turns out, our western lifestyle may be more to blame. Nothing in this video should be construed as medical diagnosis, advice or prescription.

How a healthy gut microbiome may help protect women from some discomforts of menopause.

Did you know lactose intolerance is actually the norm? What's going on with that, and how hacking your gut biome might be a good solution.

Research is beginning to suggest that a gluten-free diet alone may not be the full answer to celiac disease. What celiac disease is, how it works, and why it's much more invasive than most folks ever imagined.

I'm not trying to be for or against alcohol consumption. This drug is just super interesting. I've intentionally focused my AI inquiries around the metabolism and epigenetics of use. However, addiction is such a hot topic - it bleeds in a little bit, so far, regardless of how I edit the prompt! This is a thing with AI, right? It guesses what you mean by your prompt, then attempts a reasonable resp...

Are you a night owl living in an early bird world? Or perhaps a morning lark working 3rd? How your circadian rhythm works, how sleep, melatonin and caffeine hack that cycle. Includes a great rabbit trail about how sleep evolved, and why we need it.

In this one, my AI characters really dig into research, and use more scientific terms in their conversation. They've also given themselves jobs. I am a certified genomic nutritionist. My AI does not have clients, an office or research lab. No actual genetic counselors or research scientists were brought in during the recording of this podcast. However, I get much better answers to my queries when...

An AI overview of research around the intersection of our gut microbiome, personal genetics and nutrition.

I asked AI for peer-reviewed articles about triglycerides. What are they? How does the process work? What do they do in the human body? How might our individual genetics affect that process? If we have an unfortunate genetic allotment, what can we do - so far as lifestyle and exercise tweaks - to kind of mitigate that. This is what she brought back. For the record, not all these tests were done on...
