Sun, 03 Nov 2024 - 436 - Why you need to be obsessed with your mitochondria part 1, with Dr. Christabelle Yeoh
Journey deep into your cellular powerhouses - the mitochondria - in this eye-opening episode of The Paul Taylor Podcast. I sit down with Dr. Christabelle Yeoh, an Integrative Medicine Physician, with over 20 years of experience in clinical care, as she reveals how these ancient cellular components govern everything from brain health to athletic performance, and why they might be the key to understanding conditions like depression, diabetes, and dementia.

Whether you're battling chronic health issues or simply want to understand the hidden mechanisms controlling your wellbeing, this conversation offers revolutionary insights that bridge complex biology with actionable solutions. Join us as we challenge conventional medical wisdom and uncover a fresh perspective on health and healing.
Key Topics:
Integrative Medicine Journey: From conventional to integrative medicine, including pursuing advanced nutrition education after medical residency
Metabolic Health & Disease Risk: Deep dive into metabolic syndrome's connection to major health conditions including cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, and dementia
Mitochondrial Function & Evolution: Understanding mitochondria's vital role in cellular health, energy production, and their ancient evolutionary origins
Brain Energy & Mental Health: Exploring the brain's energy demands and how mitochondrial dysfunction impacts neurological and mental health conditions
Fructose & Metabolic Crisis: Analysing Professor Richard Johnson's research on fructose consumption, genetic adaptations, and mitochondrial energy production
Mitohormesis & Adaptive Stress: Understanding hormetic stressors and their beneficial effects on mitochondrial function and overall health
Oxygen Therapy & Performance: Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) and intermittent hypoxia for chronic disease management and performance optimisation
Key Takeaways:
Look beyond blood glucose readings alone, as metabolic dysfunction can exist even with normal blood sugar levels. Request comprehensive metabolic testing as normal blood sugar levels don't guarantee metabolic health.
Reduce processed fructose intake to protect mitochondrial function and maintain healthy energy production.
Support your brain's high energy demands by prioritising mitochondrial health through lifestyle and nutrition choices.
Start gradually introducing beneficial stressors like controlled exercise, fasting, or temperature variation to strengthen your mitochondria.
Match your oxygen therapy to your health status: choose HBOT for chronic conditions or intermittent hypoxia for performance enhancement.
Take preventive action against metabolic syndrome before symptoms appear to reduce risk of serious health conditions.
Identify and eliminate lifestyle habits that force your body into chronic anaerobic metabolism.

Discover how this peak state of focus and productivity, often experienced by elite athletes and artists, can be harnessed by anyone to improve daily life, work, and even exam preparation. Dr. Jackson explains flow, its nine dimensions, and how attentional control plays a crucial role in accessing this optimal state. We will also discuss the personality types, professions most prone to experiencing flow, and learn the key differences between flow, 'being in the zone,' and deep work, along with why flow isn’t a constant state.
Packed with practical insights, this conversation offers actionable strategies to balance challenge and skill, overcome flow-blockers, and integrate flow into educational settings.

“without that ability to pay attention to refocus attention, you know, flow is not gonna happen”
“it's about training our ability to be able to know where our attention is and to bring it back and again”
“the culmination of having these other eight factors all happening together is that we have what's known as an autotelic experience, which means. intrinsically rewarding or enjoyable”
“So if we can learn to trust ourselves in a situation that it's safe for us to remain in, unlike your example there, then we can shift from anxiety.”
“high level performance, it's very much about the trust. Yeah, whereas at the lower levels, it might be you simply don't have the skills and you've got to develop them.”
“if you're going to be involved in a task and you don't, your phone isn't part of that task, then having it on silent makes sense. Otherwise there will be distractions.”

Establish specific objectives for your tasks and find ways to get quick feedback on your progress to enhance your flow experience.
Develop your ability to focus and maintain concentration, as this is crucial for entering and staying in a flow state.

Fri, 11 Oct 2024 - 426 - Wisdom Wednesdays: The Pros and Cons of Plant-Based Eating
Today I discuss my view on plant-based diets by looking at different systematic reviews comparing nutrient intakes of plant-based eaters versus omnivores, plus the impact of such diets on cardiovascular disease deaths and another looking at mental health outcomes. I also report on recent research comparing the cost of these diets as well.
This is often a highly charged emotional debate, and lots of studies in this area have inherent biases. We know that some older studies sponsored by the meat and diary industry were flawed, as are quite a few modern studies on plant-based diets. Systematic reviews tend to weed out these weaker studies and combine the data from lots of different studies to get a clearer picture.
Here's the paper on the cost of the diets. Her's the one on mental health outcomes. Here's the one on nutrient status. Here's the one on CVD risk.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Sun, 06 Oct 2024 - 424 - The Science and Philosophy of Antifragility with Paul Watkins
In this episode, we explore the world of extreme expeditions and mental resilience with Paul Watkins, an adventurer who has conquered challenges across seven continents. From Antarctica's icy expanses to towering mountain peaks, Paul shares gripping tales that showcase not just physical endurance, but also mental fortitude, self-discovery, and the power of human connection in adversity. He explores how gallows humour becomes a lifeline in dire situations and why confronting your limitations can be transformative.
Paul unveils practical techniques for building mental resilience, including the intriguing 'future self' concept and its impact on decision-making. He challenges conventional wisdom about resilience, advocating for an 'anti-fragile' approach that thrives on stress rather than just withstanding it. These insights aren't just for extreme adventurers - they're valuable for parents fostering independence in children, professionals facing tough decisions, or anyone looking to build confidence in challenging situations.
This conversation is packed with actionable takeaways, from tips on positive self-talk to a thought-provoking two-step model for decision-making. You'll learn why 'pre-paying hurt' through training is invaluable, how to harness your 'future self' for motivation, and why being merely resilient isn't enough in today's world. Whether you're scaling mountains or navigating everyday challenges, this episode offers invaluable lessons on not just surviving, but truly thriving in the face of adversity.
Key Topics:Expedition Experiences: Trail running, climbing, and expeditions across seven continents, with a particular focus on Antarctic conditions and challenges.
Mental Resilience: Exploring the mental vs. physical challenges in extreme situations, including the role of gallows humour as a coping strategy during difficult expeditions.
Trust and Human Connection: How shared extreme experiences create lasting bonds and trust between expedition partners.
Self-Discovery Through Discomfort: Why pushing personal limits and "staring into the abyss" help us learn about ourselves in extreme situations.
Mindset and Self-Talk: Practical techniques for mental resilience, including the importance of positive self-talk ("I'm awesome") and framing challenges through the lens of personal values rather than as chores.
Future Self Concept: The psychological concept of "future self" and how thinking about your future self can influence current decision-making and motivation.
Antifragility: How to build resilience through intentional exposure to challenges, including the importance of allowing children to experience and overcome difficulties rather than overprotecting them.
Key Takeaways:When doing extreme challenges, be conscious of what you're doing all the time.
Always have the mindset and the framework to keep going until you reach your goal.
Have a conversation with yourself and ask, “How important is it to you to win?”
Discipline is an act of self-love.
Two-step model for deciding whether to do something: think about it for 30 days and at the end of 30 days, reflect how much you thought about it; then ask yourself, if you could do it, and no one would ever know, and you can never tell anyone, do you still want to do it?
Look at training as a pre-payment of hurt for future events.
Do something today that your future you will thank you for.
Being resilient is not enough; we should adapt to stress and thrive in hard environments.

Sun, 15 Sep 2024 - 414 - Exercise and Longevity - Insights from Paul Taylor
In this keynote talk that I gave at the ACNEM Annual Conference, I (Paul Taylor) delve deep into the life-changing impact of exercise on longevity. Using a blend of research, personal insights and real-world examples, I explain why exercise is the most powerful tool we have to prevent chronic diseases, extend lifespan, and improve our overall health. I share key data showing how regular physical activity can transform your physical and mental health, while tackling misconceptions around fitness and aging.
Key Topics:
The Hunter-Gatherer Genome: Why modern lifestyles are out of sync with what our bodies are built for. Exercise and Chronic Diseases: The evidence that exercise can prevent or treat 26 of the most common chronic diseases. The Hallmarks of Aging: How exercise counters the biological hallmarks of aging to improve longevity. Muscle as an Endocrine Organ: The role of myokines, released during exercise, in improving organ and brain function. Cardiorespiratory Fitness and Longevity: How VO2 max is one of the strongest predictors of longevity and how you can improve it. Strength Training for Life: The critical role of muscle strength in preventing age-related decline and supporting health. Exercise for Mental Health: How exercise boosts brain function, resilience, and helps in managing stress.Memorable Quotes:
"The human genome hasn’t changed in over 45,000 years. It expects us to be physically active for normal functioning." "Exercise is the best medicine for your mitochondria—it’s manna for your cells." "Lift heavy shit. It’s as simple as that."Actionable Takeaways:
Include strength training in your weekly routine to build and maintain muscle, which is key for metabolic health and longevity. Dedicate three hours a week to exercise: 1 hour of cardio, 1 hour of resistance training, and 1 hour of mindful movement such as yoga or dancing. Incorporate movement snacks throughout the day—short bursts of activity like running up stairs or quick sprints. Track and improve your VO2 max—aim to move up from a low fitness level to at least "above average." Balance steady-state cardio and high-intensity interval training (HIIT) to get the best health outcomes.Resources Mentioned:
Hadza Tribe Study: Research on one of the last hunter-gatherer societies and how their physical activity levels compare to modern humans. The Hallmarks of Aging: A seminal paper on aging biology and how exercise can mitigate these effects.Support the Podcast:

Sun, 18 Aug 2024 - 402 - The Impact of Loneliness on Health with Dr. Michelle H Lim
In this long-overdue conversation, I sit down with Dr. Michelle H Lim, a leading expert on loneliness and the CEO of Ending Loneliness Together. We dive deep into the often-overlooked issue of loneliness, exploring its profound impact on our health and well-being. Dr. Lim shares her extensive research and insights into how loneliness not only affects us emotionally but also has serious physical health implications. We discuss the subjective nature of loneliness, the importance of meaningful social connections, and why it's crucial to change the way we think and talk about loneliness in our society.
What You'll Learn:
Understanding Loneliness: Dr. Lim explains what loneliness really is—a subjective feeling of distress when our social relationships don’t meet our needs. Health Impacts: Discover how loneliness can affect your longevity and overall health, and why it’s becoming a major public health concern. Loneliness vs. Social Isolation: We discuss the critical differences between being socially isolated and feeling lonely, and why both can be detrimental. Age and Loneliness: Insights into how loneliness manifests across different age groups, and why middle-aged adults might be more vulnerable than we think. Cognitive Biases and Loneliness: Learn about the mental traps that can keep people stuck in loneliness, and strategies for breaking out of them. Practical Steps: Dr. Lim offers actionable advice on how to manage loneliness, both for yourself and for supporting others.Key Takeaways:
Loneliness is not just a social issue but a serious health risk that needs to be addressed with the same urgency as physical health. Meaningful connections are more important than the number of connections—quality over quantity. It’s time to normalise conversations about loneliness, breaking down the stigma and encouraging people to reach out when they need help. We all have a role to play in combating loneliness, whether by supporting those around us or taking steps to improve our own social connections.Resources:

We then explore metabolic health in detail and in particular, the interactive roles of diet and exercise and the widespread effects on metabolic health from good and bad habits in these areas.
We also delve into how to fix and sub-optimal metabolism and Kate also gives us her view on the downsides of the block-buster weight-loss drugs on the market.
Check out her website for a wide array of products and services, including weight-loss programs and healthy pre-made real food.

Sun, 02 Jun 2024 - 369 - Why We Need To Stop Deferring Life & Happiness, With 'The Bucket List Guy' Travis Bell
Today is ostensibly a conversation about bucket lists, but it is a much deeper, thought-provoking conversation about actually living life, rather than deferring it until you retire, which many people do.
Travis, like myself, started out in the fitness industry many years ago, but has evolved into personal development apace and helping people live their best lives. We discuss Travis' own journey, which started out as a successful Fitness Industry entrepreneur, and the driver to re-invent himself and start living his best life. We then go into the idea of a bucket list and a reverse bucket list, and how to put some structure around those things.
Check out Travis' website for his blogs, awesome book and options to have him speak to your organisation.
