    52. The Truth About Alcohol Nobody Wants to Hear | Sam Lander
    2026/07/20

    Can you be Healthy AF if you still drink alcohol?

    In this episode of Healthy AF (Healthy After 50), I sit down with functional diagnostic nutritionist, peptide educator, and My Peptide University faculty member Sam Lander for one of the most honest conversations we've had on the podcast.

    Sam opens up about her incredible journey—from addiction, prison, and rebuilding her life—to becoming one of the most respected educators in functional medicine and peptide therapy.

    We dive into why so many people are doing everything "right" but still don't feel well, how functional lab testing uncovers hidden problems, and why alcohol may be the single biggest obstacle standing between you and optimal health.

    If you're focused on building muscle after 40, increasing energy, improving your gut, optimizing hormones, or extending your healthspan, this is an episode you don't want to miss.

    In this episode we discuss:

    • Sam's journey from addiction and prison to functional medicine
    • Why functional lab testing changes everything
    • The hidden connection between gut health and chronic symptoms
    • Why peptides require individualized protocols
    • The truth about "mommy wine culture"
    • How alcohol affects metabolism, inflammation and longevity
    • Why quitting alcohol is the biggest health hack most people ignore
    • Building resilience physically and mentally
    • Creating lasting health after 40

  • 51. The Seed Oil Studies Are Measuring the Wrong Thing

    51. The Seed Oil Studies Are Measuring the Wrong Thing
    2026/06/04

    A new seed oil study may look reassuring at first glance — but what did it actually measure?

    In this episode, Zane Griggs breaks down a 2025 review of clinical studies on seed oils and explains why short-term improvements in blood markers do not necessarily tell us what is happening inside the mitochondria.

    You'll learn why the real concern is not only what shows up in a blood draw, but what happens when polyunsaturated fats become incorporated into mitochondrial membranes over time.

    Zane walks through:

    • what the seed oil review actually found
    • why flaxseed and sesame oil are not the same as soybean or corn oil
    • the difference between blood markers and mitochondrial damage
    • cardiolipin, ATP production, and oxidative stress
    • why 4-HNE and other aldehydes matter
    • how cooking oils change when heated
    • why stored linoleic acid can remain in the body for years
    • why a short-term study may miss a long-term mitochondrial problem
    • how soybean oil consumption has changed over the last century
    • why stable fats may matter more than most people realize

    Studies:

    • Laurindo et al. Frontiers in Nutrition. 2025;12:1502815
    • Hulbert AJ et al. Physiological Reviews. 87:1175–1213, 2007
    • Seebacher F, Brand MD, Else PL, Guderley H, Hulbert AJ, Moyes CD. Physiological and Biochemical Zoology. 83(5):721–732, 2010
    • UC Riverside / Journal of Lipid Research, November 2025
    • SNI Global soybean oil consumption data



    The point is not to ignore studies that show short-term improvements. The point is to understand their limitations and ask whether they are measuring the outcome that actually matters.

  • 50. Your Body Is Stuck Burning Fat — And It's Making You Sick (Part 2)

    50. Your Body Is Stuck Burning Fat — And It's Making You Sick (Part 2)
    2026/06/02
    What happens when your body gets stuck burning fat and can't switch back to glucose? In Part 2, Zane breaks down metabolic inflexibility and explains why being locked into fat-dominant metabolism is not the same as being metabolically healthy. You'll learn how this pattern affects the muscle, heart, and liver — and how elevated fatty acids can impair glucose oxidation, disrupt insulin signaling, and contribute to insulin resistance, fatty liver disease, and heart failure. Start with Part 1 first for the ATP and glucose-efficiency breakdown. 01:00 The metabolic signature of insulin resistance03:30 Why your body should switch between fat and glucose06:00 The 3 tissues that reveal metabolic inflexibility08:30 Why Zane changed his mind about low carb13:30 The real definition of metabolic inflexibility15:00 Why elevated blood sugar can happen on keto or carnivore20:00 Heart failure and metabolic disease22:00 Why failing hearts become more dependent on fat25:00 Why glucose is not the problem29:00 The liver and fatty liver disease33:00 Fatty liver is a metabolic inflexibility problem34:00 Why the liver starts producing more glucose40:00 How liver disease progresses41:00 The muscle, heart, and liver connection46:00 How to restore glucose oxidation47:00 Why high-fat, low-carb can mimic metabolic disease Kelley, D.E.
