| 26 Jul 2021 | Episode 6 - How Do We Lose Fat? Part 6 Exercise Sleep And Stress Reduction | 00:17:34 | |
In the previous parts we talked about the discrepancies between the way we eat, and the way we evolved to eat. We looked at hyperpalatability, food engineering, the role of our hormones and the advantage of whole, unprocessed foods. We asked, and answered the question of whether very low-carb diets, like keto and carnivore are necessary for fat loss. Today we’re going to move on to exercise, sleep and stress-reduction, as well as taking a look at fasting. As always, the full text is available as a blog post on my website here.

| 13 Nov 2021 | Episode 13 - How Do We Lose Fat: The Complete Series | 01:44:36 | |
I recently released a series of YouTube videos addressing one of the most prevalent, and pertinent questions that we face today, 'how do we lose fat?' It's a complex, nuanced subject, and the series comprised seven parts in total. Those parts formed the initial basis of this podcast, duplicated here as audio content. For simplicity, this episode collates that seven part series into a single audio podcast. The full text is available as blog posts with references on my website.

| 26 Jul 2021 | Episode 2 - How Do We Lose Fat? Part 2 Sidestepping Satiety | 00:11:16 | |
In part 1 of this 'How do we lose fat?' series, we looked at how our evolution has affected the way we eat. In this second part, we take a look at how our food itself can drive us to eat more. We discuss food engineering, and the hyperpalatable nature of processed foods. We talk about how, by mimicking foods that we have evolved to overeat as a survival mechanism, food companies can make their products so compulsive. We look at how the composition of our meals can create a gap between our energy requirements, and our need for nutrients. The full text is available as a blog post on my website here.

| 26 Jul 2021 | Episode 3 - How Do We Lose Fat? Part 3 Hormones | 00:18:21 | |
In parts 1 and 2, we talked about how our evolution has affected the way we eat, and the way we store fat. We talked about how food companies can take advantage of evolutionary traits to create products that we find hard to resist, and how the composition of our meals can further drive us to overeat. Today, we’re going to talk about how our hormones play into all this. As always, the full text is available on my website here. The full YouTube series is available here.

| 26 Jul 2021 | Episode 1 - How Do We Lose Fat? Part 1 The Evolutionary Disadvantage | 00:13:29 | |
Welcome to the Ruston's Boneyard Podcast. I recently released a series of YouTube videos addressing one of the most prevalent, and pertinent questions that we face today, 'how do we lose fat?' It's a complex, nuanced subject, and I felt that it would be useful to support the series with contributions from clinicians and researchers - hence the idea of the Ruston's Boneyard Podcast was born. As a prelude to those interviews, the first few episodes will consist of the original fat loss series, in podcast form. In this first part, The Evolutionary Disadvantage, we take a look at how evolution has affected our biology to influence the way we eat, and the way we gain, or lose fat. We also look at why we need to be particularly concerned about the rise in obesity and metabolic syndrome. The full text is available as a blog post on my website here.

| 26 Jul 2021 | Episode 4 - How Do We Lose Fat? Part 4 What To Actually Do | 00:15:49 | |
In the previous parts, we looked at how our evolution has affected the way we eat, and the way we store fat. We talked about how food companies can take advantage of those evolutionary traits to create products that we find hard to resist, and how the composition of our meals can further drive us to overeat. Finally we discussed the relationship between our food, our fat and our hormones. So, what do we actually do with all this information? How DO we lose fat? In this part, we finally start digging in to the practical steps we can take to transform our body composition. We look at the initial steps towards a healthier, happier relationship with our food - one where we control it, rather that it controlling us.

| 27 Jul 2021 | Episode 8 - Midlife Health And Hormones With Kristin Johnson And Maria Claps | 00:51:14 | |
Over the past few weeks I've released my seven-part YouTube series 'How Do We Lose Fat?' (Ruston's Boneyard Podcast Episodes 1-7). It was always my intention to support the series with input from clinicians and researchers. In the first of these interviews I'm thrilled and privileged to welcome Kristin Johnson and Maria Claps from Wise And Well. Kristin and Maria are experts on women's midlife health, a goldmine of information on the symptoms and effects of peri-menopause and menopause. Considering the significant role of sex hormones in fat loss, their contribution is essential, not only in the context of the series, but in general. And this isn't just one for the girls. Declining hormones, both female and male, affect us as couples, and we need to tackle them as couples. The more we understand about what each other are dealing with, the better we can deal with things together. If you want to contact Kristin and Maria directly, check out their website www.wiseandwell.me and find them on Instagram @wise_and_well.

| 28 Jun 2022 | Season 2 Episode 1: The Six Foundations Of Nutritional Therapy | 00:13:08 | |
Over the past few months I’ve been back at school with the NTA, studying for a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner qualification. The approach that NTP’s are taught is a foundational one - health, supported on a number of fundamental pillars. And it really is surprising how many of the common issues that people struggle with come back to these foundations. That’s not to say that they account for all disease, and I should stress, NTP’s can not and do not diagnose or treat diseases. What we do is to ask whether our client’s symptoms could be related to a foundational issue, and if so guide them towards some supportive approaches. And what then often happens is that their body recovers, and starts doing what it’s supposed to do. This is not alternative medicine - it’s not medicine at all. NTP’s are not there to replace anyone’s doctor, rather to be a guide to living in such a way that we might need one less. In this episode I’m going to explain a little bit about what the NTA’s Foundations are, and why they matter. www.nutritionaltherapy.com www.rustonsboneyard.com | |||
| 26 Jul 2021 | Episode 5 - How Do We Lose Fat? Part 5 Low Carb Diets | 00:19:21 | |
Last time, we looked at the foundations of our fat-loss journey - getting a handle on calorie intake, removing processed food, and prioritising nutrients over energy. That discussion, along with the one surrounding hormones back in Part 3, led to a lot of talk about carbohydrates. Today, let’s start by taking a bit of a closer look at the very low-carb ketogenic and carnivore ways of eating. Let’s ask ourselves if those approaches might support our fat loss.
