    Nov 16 2025
    As part of our deeper series on protein, perimenopause, and hormone health, this episode kicks off a multi-part exploration of soy—one of the most misunderstood yet most powerful foods in our plant-based toolkit.This podcast is listener-supported.

And what about breast cancer? In this first episode of a multi-part series on soy, we walk through * what phytoestrogens really are (and aren’t)* how isoflavones behave in the body* why soy foods are considered such a nutritional powerhouseWe explore: * what soy actually is* why it’s so misunderstood in the West* the environmental realities behind global soy production* the unique benefits of tofu, tempeh, and edamame * estrogen-receptor–positive cancer and what the research really shows about it and its relationship to soyAll of this lays the groundwork for understanding soy’s real role in our health—far beyond the myths and misinformation—and prepares us for Parts 2 and 3, where we’ll explore soy’s impact on menopause symptoms, hormone health, and how to incorporate these nourishing foods into your daily life with confidence and joy.*High-Protein Recipes Featuring Tofu, Tempeh, and EdamameIf you’re enjoying this series and want practical, delicious ways to bring more soy foods into your life, don’t miss my new recipe e-book, High-Protein Recipes Featuring Tofu, Tempeh, and Edamame.

In fact, many studies show a lower risk of recurrence and death among women who eat more soy. JAMA Network* A 2023 systematic review and meta-analysis found that soy isoflavones were associated with about a 26% lower risk of recurrence overall, with the strongest benefit in postmenopausal and estrogen-receptor–positive survivors. The greatest risk reduction showed up around 60 mg of isoflavones per day—roughly what you’d get from 2–3 servings of traditional soy foods. PMC* Some studies suggest that women with ER-positive cancers who are taking tamoxifen and also eating more soy actually do better—they have lower recurrence risk compared to tamoxifen users who eat very little soy. PMC* Major organizations like the American Cancer Society and American Institute for Cancer Research now state that...

  • Building Strength and Muscle: Protein Intake, Protein Timing, and Lifting Heavy Sh*t

    Building Strength and Muscle: Protein Intake, Protein Timing, and Lifting Heavy Sh*t
    Oct 24 2025
    In this episode, we return to protein—this time looking at how to use it strategically to build and maintain muscle, especially as we age (or level up, as I like to say).If you haven’t yet listened to Are You Getting Enough Protein? Part One and Are You Getting Enough Protein? Part Two, I highly recommend doing so — they lay the foundation for this deeper dive into how protein works in the body, how much we actually need, and why amino acids from plants are identical to those from animals.Today, we’re getting practical and personal by looking at:* The many benefits (besides aesthetics) when we build muscle* Why protein timing matters as much as protein amount* How leucine — one of the branched-chain amino acids — acts as the “on switch” for muscle repair and growth* Why lifting heavy (yes, heavy sh*t!) is essential for preserving strength, bone density, and metabolic health* How creatine supports muscle building* Shifting from weight loss to body recomposition* Answers to your questions about collagenYou’ll learn how to overcome anabolic resistance (our body’s natural decline in muscle-building efficiency with age), why women in particular benefit from shorter post-workout protein windows, and how simple daily habits play into muscle repair and longevity.If you’ve been wondering how to eat and train for strength, confidence, and longevity — while keeping it plant-based and joyful — this episode is for you.Listen wherever you get your podcasts by clicking “play” on the player above.

  • Omega 3s, Omega 6s, and The Truth About Seed Oils

    Omega 3s, Omega 6s, and The Truth About Seed Oils
    Oct 18 2025
    In this episode of Food for Thought, we’re separating fact from fear when it comes to omega-3s, omega-6s, and seed oils. I share what I’ve learned from testing my own Omega-3 Index, what the results mean, and how I’m adjusting my diet and supplements for both heart and brain health.We’ll talk about why omega-6s aren’t inherently bad, how to bring balance back through whole foods and direct EPA/DHA sources, and why testing (not guessing) is the key to optimizing your health.If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re getting enough omega-3s—or if all those seed oil headlines have left you confused—this episode is for you.This podcast is listener-supported.
