I’m thrilled to share another podcast and terrestrial radio show that I had the pleasure of co-hosting just over a week ago – and that’s Forever Young Radio Show. In this episode, you get to hear from a guest I’ve featured a few times before on this show – and that’s Dr. William Li – the 2x New York Times bestselling author of Eat To Beat Your Diet.

What You'll Learn: We zero in on his work as it relates to metabolic health and healthy aging. You’ll learn how our metabolism shifts as we age, and the role that body fat plays in metabolic health.

Why you need omega-3s! Dr. Li goes to healthy, whole foods first in every recommendation he makes – AND he also recommends that we all get more omega-3s. This is one of those supplements that he is definitely excited about. We even hosted an omega-3 masterclass on his YouTube channel. In that 20 minute session, we share why this important class of nutrients is so important, how it can help us resolve inflammation in our bodies, and even help restore our metabolic fire. Here's that YouTube link: https://youtu.be/UhG2D70YfWU

Additional Resources:

And for those of you that are just being introduced to Dr. William Li and his important work, I’m including links to past episodes in which I interviewed Dr. Li – and also the 4 week deep dive into a course he offers. I provide a summary of that experience over the course of 4 individual solocast episodes, all of which are linked below:

FOREVER YOUNG RADIO, SHOW NOTES:

The pioneering physician scientist behind the New York Times bestseller Eat to Beat Disease reveals the science of eating your way to healthy weight loss. In his first groundbreaking book, Dr. William Li explored the world of food as medicine. By eating foods that you already enjoy, like tomatoes, blueberries, sourdough bread, and dark chocolate your body activates its five health defense systems to fight cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular, neurodegenerative autoimmune diseases, and other debilitating conditions.

Now in Eat to Beat Your Diet, Dr. Li introduces the surprising new science of weight loss, revealing healthy body fat can help you lose weight; your metabolism at 60 can be the same as when you were 20; yo-yo dieting can be good for your health; 8-hour fasting windows can be as effective as 12-hour fasting windows; and losing just a little bit of weight can have big impacts on your health. Eat to Beat Your Diet shows readers how adding the right foods to your diet can heal your metabolism, reduce unhealthy body fat, and result in the kind of weight loss that can increase your lifespan and help you thrive.

In this episode of "Forever Young" the host, Kelly Cappasola, celebrates the 500th episode with special guest Corinna Bellizzi and featured guest Professor Isaac Berzin. The focus of the episode is on the benefits of algae, specifically in the context of bioavailable nutrition and sustainability.

Key highlights from the episode include:

1. Introduction of Algae as a Nutritive Source: Isaac Berzin, a notable figure for his work in sustainability and with a background in chemical engineering and biotechnology, discusses his fascination with algae. He explains how algae play a crucial role in producing oxygen, forming the basis of the food chain in oceans, and acting as a primary source of omega-3 fatty acids.
2. Benefits of Algae over Traditional Omega-3 Sources: Berzin shares insights into the unique advantages of algae as a source of omega-3s, emphasizing its efficiency in CO2 fixation and its potential to sustain life on Earth. He contrasts algae's comprehensive nutritional profile with traditional crops and highlights its role in producing essential amino acids and fatty acids without the agricultural waste associated with staple crops.
3. Innovations in Algae Cultivation and Production: The conversation delves into the technological advancements in algae cultivation, particularly the integration of algae production facilities with geothermal power plants in Iceland. This integration allows for optimal growth conditions, such as controlled light and temperature, which significantly enhance the production of valuable compounds like omega-3 fatty acids.
4. Carbon Neutrality and Sustainability: Berzin explains how the cultivation process of microalgae in Iceland, leveraging geothermal energy and carbon capture, achieves carbon negativity, a rare feat in agricultural activities. This sustainable approach not only addresses carbon footprint concerns but also reduces land and water usage compared to traditional cultivation methods.
5. Future Directions and Applications: Looking ahead, the discussion touches on the potential for algae-based products in various industries, including nutrition, where algae's high protein content and essential nutrients can support healthier, more sustainable food options. The episode also hints at upcoming products and collaborations aimed at incorporating algae into everyday diets, thereby promoting both environmental sustainability and nutritional benefits.

The episode underscores the importance of algae as a key player in future sustainable food systems and nutritional supplements, emphasizing its role in promoting health and environmental sustainability.

By fostering sustainable practices and advocating for change, Bellizzi is not just contributing to a healthier planet but also inspiring others to join her in making a significant difference.

One of the selling points for new build houses and appliances is that “it's all-electric”. But what does that really mean and how does it benefit us and the environment? In this episode of Nutrition Without Compromise, Ben Jeffreys, CEO of ATEC – a social enterprise startup that aims to create global access to clean cooking solutions – joins Corinna Bellizzi to discuss how we lose around 13 hours each week cooking with wood and the smoke pollution that it causes which is tied to almost 4 million deaths per year.

In the modern era, our nutrition systems are in crisis. Foods that once had high levels of minerals and vitamins have seen their levels plummet as a result of the compromised health of our soil and ecosystems. With these changes, our waistlines have expanded, as food is less nutrient-dense and therefore less filling. Entire communities are undernourished and overweight. This is a direct result of the figurative and literal food deserts we live in today. It's time for a new era, one that puts nutrition first, without compromise. 

At Nutrition Without Compromise we believe that great nutrition and bountiful health is a human right. We believe that you should never have to make a choice between your ethics, your morals, the food on your plate, and the environment that produces it in order to stay your healthiest and live your best life. If you want to join a movement that challenges the status quo, that asks you to think deeply and discover new solutions that you might never have thought possible, then this podcast and community is exactly where you belong.

Petrochemicals are superfluous in all of our lives. They are not only in the fuel and lubricants used in machinery, they are used to make plastics and clothing, inks and paints, and so much more. To dive into this topic, Corinna Bellizzi and Tia Walden are joined by Scott Fulbright, CEO and founder of Living Ink, a company that seeks to replace petrochemical-based inks with inks from algae.

00:00 Introduction - Why are we talking about inks on a nutrition podcast?
