Essential Amino Acids with Angelo Keely {CEO of Kion}
Are protein shakes really enough as you age? In this episode, I’m joined by Angelo Keely, CEO of Kion, to break down why Essential Amino Acids (EAAs) are the real secret to preserving muscle, energy, and body composition—especially for women over 35. We explore how EAAs differ from protein powder, when to use them, and how they support fat loss, hormone health, and recovery.
🎧 Plus, we talk about creatine for women, why EAAs are more than just a workout supplement, and how to use them daily for best results.

Can you have a healthy gut on a low-carb or even carnivore diet? This episode with Certified Holistic Nutritionist and Herbalist Ashley Sauvé is packed with insights on how to support digestion—even if plants don’t love you back. We explore celiac recovery (hint: it’s more than just going gluten-free), the rise of parasites, how H. pylori gets missed, and why your gut bugs need carbs (but not too many). Whether you're dealing with bloating, fatigue, or food fears, this conversation is the gut reset you didn’t know you needed.
