In this episode of the Optimal Protein Podcast, Vanessa sits down with sports nutrition scientist Dr. Jose Antonio, one of the world's leading researchers on protein metabolism and body composition. Dr. Antonio is widely known for his groundbreaking protein overfeeding studies, which found that participants consuming extremely high protein diets did not gain body fat — and in some cases actually lost more fat — even while eating more calories. In this conversation, Vanessa and Dr. Antonio explore the fascinating metabolic reasons why protein behaves differently in the body, including its thermic effect, impact on satiety, and role in preserving lean mass during fat loss. They also discuss the newly evolving protein recommendations, how protein interacts with carbohydrates and fats in the diet, and why certain athletes may benefit from lower carbohydrate approaches depending on their sport and metabolic demands. If your goal is fat loss, body recomposition, or maintaining muscle while dieting, this episode offers a deep dive into the science behind why prioritizing protein can be such a powerful strategy. In This Episode • Why protein overfeeding studies showed more calories did not lead to fat gain • The metabolic reasons protein calories behave differently in the body • How high protein intake supports fat loss and lean muscle preservation • The science behind the thermic effect of protein • Why newer protein recommendations are increasing • How protein, carbohydrates, and fats interact to influence body composition • Why certain athletes may benefit from lower carbohydrate strategies Timeline Mitopure Gummies — The #1 Urolithin A supplement for energy and healthy aging, now in delicious strawberry gummies.

In this episode, Vanessa is joined by Dr. Jason Fung, author of The Hunger Code, to unpack the hormonal science behind fat loss — and how fasting may be entering a new era. They start with the three types of hunger and why obesity is not simply about willpower, but disrupted hormonal signaling. We break down insulin's role in fat storage, obesity, and how ultra-processed foods blunt satiety hormones. Vanessa and Dr. Fung also discuss how protein, fiber, and fat affect hunger very differently than refined carbohydrates — and why a calorie is not metabolically neutral. Then they shift to fasting. Dr. Fung shares his current protocols and comments on emerging research supporting Protein-Sparing Modified Fasting (PSMF) as a more practical, muscle-conscious alternative to prolonged water fasting. They cover: • PSMF vs water fasting • Protecting lean mass during fat loss • GLP-1 medications — risks and unintended consequences • Appetite suppression vs true metabolic health • Fat loss considerations for women in peri- and post-menopause This conversation challenges the idea that all fasting approaches are created equal — and reframes modern fat loss through a hormonal lens.

What do elite athletes do differently when it comes to fat loss? In this episode, Vanessa breaks down the most surprising takeaways from her conversation with sports dietitian Emily Mitchell, who has worked with professional teams including UCLA Athletics, the LA Galaxy, the Clippers, and the Buccaneers. While many people think getting lean requires constant dieting, eliminating carbohydrates, and pushing through hunger, elite athletes often take a completely different approach. Vanessa explores six of the most powerful fat loss strategies used by elite performers — including why many athletes don't diet during their competitive season, why protein intake is far higher than most people realize, and how strategic carbohydrate timing can actually support fat loss and performance. 🧠 IQBAR – Try the Ultimate Sampler Pack: IQBARs, IQMIX, and IQJOE!

Fasted training is one of the most persistent fat-loss myths—and in this episode, Dr. Katie Hirsch breaks down what actually matters for women: training quality, muscle preservation, and metabolic health. We unpack why "burning more fat during a workout" is often the wrong target, and how a small amount of protein (or EAAs) before training can change perceived exertion, improve workout output, and potentially increase post-workout energy expenditure—especially in women who are prone to under-fueling. We also dive into muscle quality (not just muscle size), why it matters for insulin sensitivity and body composition, and what changes in peri/post-menopause can mean for amino acid delivery to muscle—and how to train and eat to stay lean, strong, and metabolically resilient.

In this episode, Vanessa sits down with Dr. Nicole Huffman to unpack what's actually happening beneath the surface in midlife: rising insulin resistance, stress-driven blood sugar swings, declining metabolic flexibility, and the silent loss of muscle that lowers resting metabolic rate. They explore why ketosis can be a powerful tool during perimenopause — not as a rigid "diet," but as a metabolic state that stabilizes glucose, reduces inflammation, and helps restore the internal environment hormones rely on. They also explore the powerful connection between ketosis and fertility — including insulin resistance, progesterone signaling, PCOS, and why metabolic "safety signals" matter for ovulation. You'll also hear: Why muscle preservation changes everything after 40 The surprising connection between stress, insulin, and progesterone Why some women regain ovulation when blood sugar improves How to approach keto in a flexible, woman-centered way Why protein + lifting + sleep are non-negotiable Vanessa also shares her experience using protein-sparing modified fasting (PSMF) days to drive fat loss, body recomposition and ketogenesis while protecting lean mass — and why this may be a more effective strategy for women over traditional fasting. If you've ever said, "My body doesn't respond like it used to," this episode explains why — and what to do about it.

Start of episode recap is at 13.41 In today's Friday solocast, Vanessa Spina breaks down the biggest takeaways from her interview with Dr. Paul Moughan—one of the world's leading experts on protein quality, amino acid digestibility, and how much of the protein you eat actually becomes usable by the body. If you've ever wondered why fat loss stalls in a deficit, why muscle can drop even when you "hit your protein," or why metabolic rate seems to slow during dieting—this episode explores a rarely discussed variable: utilizable protein and amino acid delivery to tissues.  🧠 IQBAR – Try the Ultimate Sampler Pack: IQBARs, IQMIX, and IQJOE!

Start of Arny Ferrando's episode recap is at 14:00 minutes. In today's Friday solocast, Vanessa Spina recaps her recent interview with Arny Ferrando, one of the world's leading experts on human muscle protein metabolism — and explains why fat loss problems are often muscle problems in disguise. The episode opens with two brand-new studies that challenge common fat-loss assumptions, including new findings on hydration and body fat loss, and surprising research linking resistance training with intelligence and cognitive performance. From there, Vanessa distills the most important insights from her conversation with Dr. Ferrando, including why simply eating less often backfires, how aging and hormonal changes impair muscle metabolism, and what most people misunderstand about protein needs, circulation, and metabolic slowdown. 🧠 IQBAR – Try the Ultimate Sampler Pack: IQBARs, IQMIX, and IQJOE!

Most people think creatine only affects muscle strength and performance. But what if creatine also plays a role inside fat cells themselves—and could subtly influence fat loss and body recomposition? In this episode of the Optimal Protein Podcast, Vanessa Spina I recaps the key takeaways from the interview with Dr. Scott Forbes, focusing on fat loss, body recomposition, muscle preservation, protein intake, creatine supplementation, sleep, and aging. This episode breaks down brand new research on how different training modalities, recovery, and evidence-based supplements influence fat loss and body composition—and why scale weight alone is a poor marker of fat loss success. 🧠 IQBAR – Try the Ultimate Sampler Pack: IQBARs, IQMIX, and IQJOE!

Timeline Mitopure Gummies — The #1 Urolithin A supplement for energy and healthy aging, now in delicious strawberry gummies. Get 20% off at timeline.com/vanessa Most fat-loss advice focuses on the scale — but what if that's the wrong metric entirely? In this episode, Vanessa Spina is joined by Dr. Scott Forbes, exercise physiologist and professor at Brandon University, whose research challenges many of the assumptions behind traditional weight-loss approaches. Dr. Forbes has authored and co-authored numerous randomized controlled trials and large meta-analyses examining how training style, protein intake, creatine supplementation, sleep, and aging influence fat loss, muscle retention, and metabolic health. Rather than chasing weight loss, this conversation explores what happens when the goal shifts to body recomposition — losing fat while preserving or building muscle — and why that distinction changes everything. In this episode, we explore: Why weight loss and fat loss are not the same thing The surprising differences between cardio, resistance training, and combined approaches Why some people lose weight but stall metabolically How protein and creatine fit into a muscle-centric fat-loss strategy Why fat loss becomes harder with age — and what still works A largely overlooked factor that influences where fat is stored If you've ever done "everything right" and still felt stuck, this episode offers a science-backed reframe that may completely change how you approach fat loss. 👉 Subscribe, rate, and review the Optimal Protein Podcast to support the show and help bring you more evidence-based conversations on fat loss, protein, and muscle-centric nutrition.

Skip to the start of the recap: 13:41 In today's Friday solo episode of The Optimal Protein Podcast, Vanessa breaks down the science of leptin — the hormone that determines whether your body will burn fat or protect it. Leptin isn't just about appetite. It's a metabolic permission signal, and when leptin signaling is disrupted, fat loss can stall even in a calorie deficit. 🧠 IQBAR – Try the Ultimate Sampler Pack: IQBARs, IQMIX, and IQJOE!

Skip to the start of the episode: 11:52 In today's Friday solo recap on the Optimal Protein Podcast, I break down the most important takeaways from my recent conversation with Dr. Gabrielle Lyon — and why this episode has major implications for fat loss, metabolic health, and women's body composition. 🧠 IQBAR – Try the Ultimate Sampler Pack: IQBARs, IQMIX, and IQJOE! Text VANESSA to 64000 for a 20% off discount code One of the biggest themes of our discussion was that muscle is not just about aesthetics. It's a metabolic organ, and preserving it is foundational for long-term health — especially for women as we age. I also connect this conversation to the new protein recommendations reflected in the 2025–2030 Dietary Guidelines, which now align far more closely with modern protein science. For the first time, official guidance is moving beyond minimums designed to prevent deficiency and toward intakes that actually support muscle preservation, metabolic health, and satiety. We also cover a brand new study on weight loss drugs and fat regain. In this recap, I cover: Why we don't have an "overfat" problem — we have an undermuscled problem Why midlife fat gain is not inevitable (and not just about hormones) How carb tolerance and activity level influence fat storage Why excess carbohydrates quietly work against fat loss when muscle demand is low The overlooked role of muscle blood flow and intramuscular fat Why under-eating accelerates muscle loss in women How weight loss drugs can worsen fat regain if muscle isn't protected Why strength training is non-negotiable — but must be appropriate Why protein isn't just calories, but a signal for muscle and metabolism If your goals include fat loss, body recomposition, and aging strong, this episode will help you rethink how protein, carbs, and muscle fit together — and why preserving muscle is the real long-term strategy.

Get 20% off at timeline.com/vanessa In today's episode, Vanessa sits down with Dr. Howard, the lead author of a brand-new PNAS study that is challenging one of the most widely accepted ideas in human metabolism. For years, many scientists believed that our bodies operate within a fixed daily calorie "budget," and that after a certain point, increasing activity doesn't increase total calorie burn. But Dr. Howard's new research suggests the story may be far more dynamic — and far more empowering — than we ever realized.

You'll learn: • How stable isotope tracer studies work and what they reveal about muscle protein synthesis (MPS). • The minimum protein per meal needed to trigger muscle growth and repair — and whether you can hit it with two meals a day. • The truth about intermittent fasting and muscle preservation — what happens to MPS in 2-meal and 1-meal-a-day patterns. • Why older adults and women over 40 face anabolic resistance and how EAAs (essential amino acids) can help overcome it. • What happens when you double your protein intake from 0.8 g/kg to 1.6 g/kg — and why distribution may matter less than total intake. • The surprising power of small doses of EAAs in muscle maintenance and cognitive support. • Why creatine is foundational for women, including new research showing benefits for brain health and sleep deprivation. • How to optimize body recomposition — burning fat while protecting lean mass — even during calorie restriction. • The difference between supplemental vs. replacement nutrition, and why EAAs work for older adults with low appetite. • The synergy of protein + resistance training + sleep + activity in driving sustainable fat loss.

Dr. Ferrando is one of the world's leading researchers in muscle protein metabolism, with over 35 years of groundbreaking work on essential amino acids, anabolic resistance, and nutrition-exercise interactions. We kick things off with his perspective on Protein-Sparing Modified Fasts (PSMF) versus water fasting, and the implications each has for fat loss and lean mass preservation. Dr. Ferrando also shares his positive take on collagen supplementation, including how it can support connective tissue health, and weighs in on the potential risks of GLP-1 medications to muscle tissue during rapid weight loss.

Dr. Ferrando also shares his positive take on collagen supplementation, including how it can support connective tissue health, and weighs in on the potential risks of GLP-1 medications to muscle tissue during rapid weight loss. The heart of this episode dives into anabolic resistance during menopause. Dr. Ferrando explains why it may not just be about hormones, but also about impaired nutrient delivery to muscle. He describes amino acids as the "signal" and blood flow as the "delivery truck"—a powerful analogy that reveals why exercise is so critical to overcoming anabolic resistance. We explore practical strategies for women to preserve muscle and improve body composition during midlife and beyond, including: Why blood flow and nutrient delivery may matter as much as hormones. How red light therapy and blood flow restriction training (BFR) could enhance amino acid delivery and muscle responsiveness. His recommendations for EAA dosing, timing, and frequency in peri- and postmenopausal women. The role of microvascular health and endothelial function in muscle retention. Why free-form EAAs are more efficient than intact protein under calorie restriction. This conversation is packed with actionable science and myth-busting insights that will help you understand how to protect your muscle, burn fat, and stay strong at every stage of life.

If you've ever struggled with bloating after eating, digestive discomfort, or wondered if your body is really absorbing all the protein and nutrients you consume, this episode is for you. I'm joined by Wade Lightheart, co-founder and president of BiOptimizers, to dive into the science of digestive enzymes and how they can transform digestion, nutrient absorption, and protein utilization. A former natural bodybuilding champion, Wade developed MassZymes after struggling with his own digestion on a high-protein diet. We cover: What EXACTLY causes bloating and poor protein digestion Why low stomach acid and declining enzyme levels with age can cause bloating and poor nutrient absorption. Clinical research on protease blends and a 2024 protein study showing improved amino acid absorption with enzyme support.

Carbon in vs. carbon out — how to think about energy balance more clearly. Why nutrition drives fat loss — the 90/10 rule of diet vs. exercise. The two macros most women misjudge — why we consistently overestimate protein and underestimate fat. What to do if you're stuck at 1,200 calories — Andy's three-step framework: reevaluate, build muscle, or take a structured diet break. Protein timing truths — total daily protein matters more than timing, plus the role of pre-sleep protein. Metabolic flexibility demystified — why it's about switching fuels efficiently, not always "burning fat." The sleep–fat loss connection — how poor sleep alters hormones, cravings, and body composition. Anabolic resistance and menopause — why blood flow and activity may matter more than hormones alone.

In today's episode, Vanessa sits down with Dr. Samuel Dicken, Research Fellow at University College London's Centre for Obesity Research and lead author of the UPDATE Trial — the longest and most rigorous clinical study to date comparing ultra-processed (UPF) vs. minimally processed (MPF) diets. This landmark trial revealed a game-changing finding: 👉 Even when calories, protein, and nutrients were matched to healthy eating guidelines, participants eating minimally processed foods lost twice as much weight, significantly more body fat, and experienced fewer cravings than those on ultra-processed foods. We dive deep into: Why food processing level impacts fat loss and body recomposition beyond calories How minimally processed diets preserve muscle while reducing fat mass The role of appetite hormones (ghrelin, GLP-1, PYY) and the thermic effect of food in regulating intake Dr. Dicken's Lancet cohort study linking ultra-processed foods to a 17% higher risk of diabetes per 10% increase in diet share Practical food swaps to maximize satiety per calorie and overcome cravings Where "better" processed foods (like whole-grain breads and fermented dairy) fit into the picture How minimally processed diets compare with — and complement — GLP-1 weight-loss medications If you've ever felt like you eat "healthy" but still struggle with fat loss, this episode uncovers why the quality and processing level of your food may matter as much as the nutrients themselves.

This 8-week randomized controlled trial looked at how eating either high or low protein influenced muscle gain, fat gain, and strength in women training for physique competition. Despite eating more calories, the high-protein group experienced a shocking amount of muscle gain and fat loss. The findings challenge conventional bulking and cutting wisdom and highlight the power of protein for female body recomposition. 📌 Topics Covered: • Overview of the study design: 8 weeks, trained women, controlled protein intake • Why the RDA for protein is insufficient for active women • How high protein builds muscle without fat gain—even in a surplus • The metabolic advantages of high protein (TEF, nutrient partitioning, satiety) • Practical recommendations for women lifting weights • Limitations of the study and why it still matters • Your action plan for applying the research 📖 Reference: Campbell, B. I., et al. (2018). Effects of high versus low protein intake on body composition and maximal strength in aspiring female physique athletes engaging in an 8-week resistance training program.

In this episode of The Optimal Protein Podcast, I take a deep dive into two exciting new studies that could reshape how we think about fat loss and body composition. The first study investigates how a medically supervised ketogenic diet not only promotes fat loss but reverses biological aging by more than 6 years. And it's not just the calorie restriction—the study found that elevated ketones, especially beta-hydroxybutyrate, played a key role in reducing epigenetic age and promoting longevity pathways. The second study examines high-dose vitamin D supplementation and how it may direct surplus calories away from fat storage and toward muscle growth—via mechanisms involving myostatin and leptin signaling. While preclinical, the findings open up new conversations around vitamin D as a muscle-preserving, fat-loss–enhancing tool.

Get 20% off the New 2nd Generation Tone Device HERE with the code VANESSA In this groundbreaking episode of The Optimal Protein Podcast, we dive into a fascinating new randomized controlled trial published in Obesity (link to study) that explores the impact of carbohydrate consumption on ketosis and hunger regulation. Key Topics Discussed: • Study Overview: The methodology and key findings of this recent trial, which evaluates how carbohydrates affect ketone production and appetite. • Carbs and Ketosis: Why carbohydrates are inherently "anti-ketogenic" and how they disrupt the metabolic state of ketosis. • Hunger Regulation: Evidence from the study that links higher carbohydrate intake to increased hunger levels and how this impacts weight management strategies. • Practical Implications: What these findings mean for those pursuing ketogenic or low-carb diets for fat loss, body recomposition, and improved metabolic health. • Satiety and Protein: How prioritizing protein can help counteract the hunger-inducing effects of carbs while supporting sustainable fat loss. Why This Episode Matters: This study provides compelling evidence that supports the ketogenic approach to nutrition by highlighting the direct relationship between carbohydrate intake and hunger signaling. Whether you're a seasoned low-carb enthusiast or someone curious about the benefits of keto, this episode offers valuable insights and actionable takeaways.

In this episode we're diving deep into the world of DXA body scans and why they're a game-changer for assessing your health. A DXA scan provides a detailed breakdown of your body composition, including bone density, muscle mass, body fat percentage, and Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR). More importantly, we explore why these insights are essential for understanding metabolic health, muscle and bone health, and even longevity. We also discuss my latest DXA scan results—what's improved, what I'm working on, and how regular assessments have helped me stay on track with my health goals. You'll hear firsthand how body composition tracking offers actionable insights to optimize your health and fitness journey. Key Takeaways from the Episode: • What a DXA body scan is and how it works. • The importance of assessing body composition beyond just tracking weight or BMI. Optimal body fat percentages for women and men. • How monitoring muscle mass, bone density, and visceral fat impacts metabolic health and longevity. • Why regular DXA scans are vital for tracking progress and catching early warning signs. • My personal DXA results and how they're helping me adjust my approach to health and fitness. Whether you're focused on fat loss, muscle gain, or healthy aging, this episode provides the science and practical advice you need to understand and optimize your body composition.

Linda has been quietly and steadily continuing her path of maintaining and improving her health. She hopes that sharing her experience and knowledge will help to dispel current myths and trends that persist around the nutrition, sustainability, and ethics of eating a meat-based diet. Linda graduated from Cornell University in 1997, earning a Bachelor of Science degree from the School of Human Ecology. She has used the carnivore diet to reverse her amenorrhea and PCOS, alleviate anxiety, and eliminate daily migraines. She has seen continued suppression of edema from CVI (chronic venous insufficiency) and has found the elimination of near-constant pain from interstitial cystitis to be life-changing. She has seen how the combination of intermittent fasting and the carnivore diet has been effective in relieving the pain, bruising, and additional symptoms associated with the lipedema she has been dealing with since her 20s. Linda is a wife, mother of two & a competitive ballroom dancer. She is also a regenerating member of the Savory Institute and feels passionately about how ruminant animals and regenerative ranching are a net positive for both our health and for the health of our planet.

She has an MBA, BA Hons, and is a Board Certified Health Coach. Catherine's journey into the world of algae began in 2008 when her younger sister was diagnosed with breast cancer and was advised by her oncologist that an alkaline diet would improve her healing. Catharine left her 25-year corporate career to help her sister identify which foods where alkaline and this led her to algae. When Catharine learned that algae's vast healing properties were documented in tens of thousands of scientific studies but that none of these studies or benefits were known outside of Asia, she knew she needed to do something. And so ENERGYbits was born. - This podcast content does not constitute an attempt to practice medicine and does not establish a doctor-patient relationship.

Hi friends! This episode is all about getting lean with a focus on protien and fat, resistance training, cutting fat and building muscle for body building, Robert's opinion on PSMF and much more!  Robert Sikes, AKA Keto Savage, is a lifetime natural competitive keto bodybuilder. Using the ketogenic diet, he has seen consistent gains in building lean muscle mass, finding it to be much less stressful on the body than bulking and cutting the traditional way with carbs. Robert Sikes went from a 115-pound kid in high school to 230 pounds in college and started competing in 2010.  A few years ago he began transitioning to a keto bodybuilding approach and found that his body recovered faster after competitions and that the ketogenic diet provided a much more sustainable and healthier way to building lean muscle. When not training, you can find Robert providing online coaching through his company Keto Savage.  Say hi on Instagram (@ketogenicgirl + @optimalproteinpodcast)  Check out the BRAND NEW TONE LUX Red Light Therapy Wellness Devices!

Today's episode is a review of studies on protein intake: one Rutgers study on how a higher protein intake can boost retention of lean body mass during caloric restriction as well as influencing study subjects towards healthier options (I.e: organically choosing green vegetables over processed sugar and grains); and one study by Ohio State University on how most people are likely under-eating protein and how we need to increase protein intake recommendations for individuals based on their current stage of life, age, health condition and activity levels.
