  • E: 340 Why Meal Timing, Light, and Sleep Matter More Than Diet for Metabolic Health
    Apr 17 2026

    Got a question? Send Audrey a Text and she will answer in an episode.

    We didn’t change her diet… and everything changed.

    In just over 30 days, her C-reactive protein (CRP) dropped from 36.6 to 0.8 — a 97% reduction in inflammation — without changing her calories, macros, or food quality.

    So what actually changed?

    In this episode, I break down the real drivers of metabolic health that most people overlook:

    • how meal timing impacts insulin sensitivity
    • why light exposure controls cortisol, inflammation, and energy
    • the role of sleep in regulating metabolism and immune function
    • how circadian rhythm acts as the control system for your body

    If you’ve been eating “clean,” tracking macros, and still not seeing results… this episode will help you understand why.

    Your metabolism is not controlled by food alone.
    It is controlled by the signals your body receives from your environment.

    When you change the signal, your body changes its response.

    Listen in to learn how to work with your biology instead of against it.

  • Why Your Labs Look Normal (But Your Metabolism Isn’t)
    Apr 9 2026

    Got a question? Send Audrey a Text and she will answer in an episode.

    A 46-year-old woman was given 30 days to get better or her doctor wanted her on a statin.

    • CRP: 36.6
    • Cholesterol: 288
    • ApoB elevated to 180s

    Thirty days later?

    • CRP dropped to 0.8. That’s a 97% reduction in inflammation.
    • Cholesterol down 10%
    • ApoB down 30%

    The shocker:

    • We didn’t change what she ate.
    • We didn’t cut calories.
    • We didn’t overhaul her diet.

    We changed when her body experienced food. Her doctor was floored.

    Here's the question: Are we misunderstanding what your body is actually doing?

  • E: 338 High Cholesterol Runs in My Family: Genetics vs Lifestyle (What Actually Matters)
    Apr 3 2026

    Got a question? Send Audrey a Text and she will answer in an episode.

    If high cholesterol “runs in your family”…does that mean you’re stuck with it? or that you can't do anything to help?

    Not exactly.

    In this episode, we’re breaking down the truth about genetic cholesterol, including conditions like Familial Hypercholesterolemia—and why genetics are only one piece of the puzzle.

    Inside this episode, we cover:

    • Why genetics don’t guarantee outcomes
    • The role of Epigenetics in cholesterol expression
    • Why LDL alone is a poor predictor of cardiovascular risk
    • What actually drives heart disease (hint: it’s not just cholesterol)
    • How your Metabolic Scorecard changes the entire conversation
    • Where statins fit—and where they may not
    • Why cholesterol isn't the problem
