39. From Keto to Flexibility: Healing PCOS, PMS, and Blood Sugar Without Restriction
Wednesday, November 5, 2025 • Duration 01:18:50
Low-carb, high-fat, keto — for a while, these were the tools that saved so many of us from the blood sugar rollercoaster. But what happens when the same diet that once healed you… starts to hold you back?
In this week's Healthy AF episode, I sit down with Jen Winkler, a Functional Health and Hormone Coach who helps women heal from PCOS, PMS, insulin resistance, and blood sugar struggles through food, movement, and lifestyle balance.
Jen shares her personal healing journey — from managing PCOS through a strict ketogenic diet to later realizing that long-term hormone health requires more flexibility, color, and nourishment. Together, we explore the shift from restriction to restoration — how embracing real, whole foods (including fruit!) can rebuild your metabolism, support your thyroid, and calm your nervous system.
We also get real about the role of stress, over-exercising, and the tendency to "biohack" our way into burnout. Jen explains how to rebuild trust with your body, why hormone balance starts with blood sugar balance, and how small daily changes can completely transform your energy, mood, and cycle health.
If you've ever felt like your body's working against you — or like you've done everything right and still don't feel great — this episode will give you hope and practical tools to start healing, without extremes.
💡 Key Takeaways
Healing PCOS and PMS starts with balancing blood sugar, not restricting food.
Keto and low-carb can be useful, but long-term flexibility is key for hormone health.
Fruits and colorful vegetables support liver detox, estrogen balance, and energy.
Chronic stress and over-training can mimic hormone dysfunction.

38. Low Carb, High Stress? The Bioenergetic Truth About Metabolic Health with Jay Feldman
Monday, October 20, 2025 • Duration 01:52:38
Low-carb might not be the health solution you think it is.
After years of eating low-carb, fasting, and grinding through high-stress training, I started to notice something: my results were stalling, my sleep was off, and my labs were telling me I wasn't as metabolically "healthy" as I thought. When I added carbs back in—real food carbs from fruit, honey, and roots—my energy, recovery, and hormone markers improved across the board.
That shift led me back to today's guest, Jay Feldman, a health researcher and coach who's redefining what it means to be healthy through the bioenergetic model—the science of optimizing how our cells create and use energy.
The Conversation
In this episode, Jay and I dig deep into what's really driving modern metabolic disease—and spoiler alert—it's not sugar.
Jay explains why cellular energy production is the foundation of true health and how modern diets, stress, and lifestyle habits are interfering with that process. We discuss why low-carb and fasting protocols, while helpful short-term, can mimic stress states in the body and lead to burnout, hormonal dysfunction, and poor metabolic flexibility.
We also get into the massive role that seed oils and polyunsaturated fats (PUFAs) play in modern disease. Jay breaks down how these unstable fats damage mitochondrial membranes, reduce ATP production, and set off oxidative stress that disrupts everything from blood sugar regulation to brain health.
And, for anyone who still believes sugar is the bad guy, this episode flips that narrative upside down. Jay explains why sugar—especially from real foods—has been wrongly blamed for problems actually caused by PUFAs, endotoxin buildup, and poor energy metabolism.
Key Takeaways
Energy, not restriction, drives health. When energy production drops, disease takes root.
Low-carb can mimic disease states. The body reads low energy availability as stress.
Seed oils are the real metabolic disruptors. They damage mitochondria and drive inflammation.
Sugar isn't the villain. Whole-food carbohydrates can restore balance and energy.

28. Sugar is NOT the Cause of Obesity & Type 2 Diabetes with Chris Knobbe, MD
Tuesday, November 19, 2024 • Duration 01:21:34
In this episode of Healthy AF (Healthy After 50), Zane Griggs sits down with Dr. Chris Knobbe, a renowned expert on nutrition and chronic disease, to uncover the shocking truth about seed oils. From their origins to their widespread use in today's processed foods, this episode sheds light on why these oils may be the root cause of many modern health crises.
What Are Seed Oils, and Why Are They So Prevalent?
Dr. Knobbe describes seed oils as industrially produced oils extracted from seeds such as soy, corn, and canola. Originally introduced as a cheap cooking alternative, seed oils have now infiltrated nearly all processed foods, marketed as "heart-healthy" despite mounting evidence to the contrary.
The Health Impact of Seed Oils
Seed oils are rich in omega-6 fatty acids, which, when consumed in excess, disrupt the body's natural balance, leading to chronic inflammation. Dr. Knobbe explains how this contributes to conditions like heart disease, obesity, diabetes, and even neurodegenerative disorders.
A History of Deception in the Food Industry
Tracing the history of seed oils, Dr. Knobbe highlights how they were falsely promoted as a healthier alternative to animal fats. Through aggressive marketing and misleading science, they became a staple in kitchens and food products worldwide, driving a significant shift away from traditional, nutrient-rich fats like tallow and butter.
The Science Behind Seed Oils' Harmful Effects
The discussion dives into the chemical instability of seed oils. Their susceptibility to oxidation not only accelerates aging but also creates harmful byproducts that damage cellular structures and DNA. Dr. Knobbe emphasizes how this oxidative stress can wreak havoc on long-term health.
Join the Movement: Watch "The Ancestral Health Solution"
Dr. Chris Knobbe is launching a groundbreaking documentary, "The Ancestral Health Solution", that dives deep into the hidden dangers of seed oils and their role in the modern health crisis. This eye-opening film not only reveals the history and science behind these harmful oils but also empowers you with the tools to reclaim your health through ancestral eating.

Monday, October 21, 2024 • Duration 01:51:47
In this episode of Healthy AF (Healthy After 50), Zane Griggs sits down with Texas Slim, the founder of the Beef Initiative. They discuss Texas Slim's mission to restore transparency, reconnect consumers with ranchers, and rebuild trust in the beef industry.
What is the Beef Initiative?
The Beef Initiative, founded by Texas Slim, aims to bridge the gap between consumers and ranchers. It's a movement focused on transparency, quality, and returning to local, ethical food systems. The goal is to educate consumers on the value of supporting independent ranchers who prioritize sustainability and health.
Understanding the Beef Industry
Zane and Texas Slim explore the rise of industrial CAFO (Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations) systems that prioritize mass production over quality and animal welfare. Texas Slim explains how the Beef Initiative challenges this system by advocating for regenerative practices and building direct relationships with local ranchers.
Deception in the Food System
Texas Slim sheds light on the deceptive practices prevalent in the beef industry, particularly around labeling and marketing. The conversation emphasizes how terms like "all-natural" or "grass-fed" are often misleading, and the Beef Initiative is working to provide consumers with the knowledge they need to make informed choices.
Building Relationships Between Ranchers and Consumers
A cornerstone of the Beef Initiative is the direct connection between ranchers and consumers. Texas Slim highlights the importance of knowing where your food comes from and supporting those who produce it ethically. By establishing these connections, consumers can gain a sense of trust and community within the food system.
Industrial CAFO System vs. Independent Ranchers
The episode contrasts large-scale industrial operations with independent ranchers. Zane and Texas Slim discuss how independent ranchers focus on animal welfare, environmental sustainability, and producing healthier beef, while CAFOs often prioritize efficiency and profit.

Zane and James dive into where Seatopia sources its seafood. Each farm is carefully selected for its commitment to sustainability, ensuring the seafood delivered to consumers is clean and ethically raised. Seatopia works with farms that use pristine water sources and prioritize the well-being of both fish and ocean ecosystems.
The Importance of Clean Seafood
For those over 50, clean eating is critical, and James stresses the importance of choosing seafood that is free of pollutants, antibiotics, and heavy metals. Seatopia ensures that the seafood they deliver is not only delicious but supports health at every level.
Environmental Impact and Ocean Restoration
James is a firm believer that sustainable aquaculture can play a major role in restoring the health of our oceans.
