from High Performance Health · host Angela Foster

Angela is joined by Matt Gallant and Wade Lightheart from BIOptimizers to discuss the complexities of universal nutritional optimisers, drawing from their extensive experience as trainers and their dedication to uncovering the most effective dietary strategies. Matt and Wade debunk myths surrounding calories in, calories out, and delve into the nuances of macronutrients like protein and fibre, highlighting the importance of individualised approaches to diet and lifestyle. KEY TAKEAWAYS Universal nutritional optimisers that work regardless of the diet followed are of the utmost importance When it comes to the calories in, calories out axiom, Wade and Matt stress the significance of protein and fibre intake in managing satiety and triggering anabolism. There is a great need for metabolic flexibility, including strategic fasting and spiking days to maintain body fat percentage and optimise energy expenditure. It’s vital to tailor nutrition and exercise routines to align with hormonal cycles, especially for women, to maximise results and overall health. Matt and Wade share insights into their daily routines, including sleep optimisation, cognitive enhancers, and stress management techniques, showcasing a holistic approach to high performance living. BEST MOMENTS "I started doing ketogenic diets over 30 years ago. I thought that was the answer for everyone. I put all my clients on it." "The reality was about 80% of those strategies were similar. The other 20% was the nuances that we found within the individual." "I think if your sleep is hyper optimised, if you're consuming enough protein feedings a day, and it's worth highlighting that that is the biggest downside of intermittent fasting." "The reality is, and no matter how good your diet is, you're going to need supplements to fill the holes or your genetic weaknesses."   VALUABLE RESOURCES Get a free snapshot of your health and personalised report at www.yourtotalhealthcheck.com Join The High Performance Health CommunityFree Fasting Guide - www.angelafosterperformance.com/fastingPodcast Shownotes - www.angelafosterperformance.com/podcasts AG1 Special Offer - https://www.drinkag1.com/angelafoster  Exclusive Offer For Listeners Of The High Performance Health Podcast:  Get 10% off The BIOptimizers Ultimate Nutrition Bible: ultimatenutritionsystem.com/angelafoster Code: foster10   ABOUT THE GUESTS Matt Gallant is the CEO and Co-Founder of BIOptimizers and has a bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology.
