Everything Lifestyle

Trailer: The World of Metabolic Health

Constant stress has a sneaky way of just sitting there in the background, quietly wreaking havoc on your body while you go about your day like everything's fine. On the next Everything Lifestyle, we're calling out the "silent killer" everyone talks about, but nobody actually deals with, plus three ways people are trying to fight back: shaker plates, bouncing, and meditation. 
Do those shake vibration plates actually do anything? Turns out kind of, but maybe not the way TikTok promised. And speaking of movement, we're getting into why bouncing on a mini-trampoline (yes, like you're eight again) might be one of the most scientifically underrated workouts out there, and it is NASA-approved! Then we slow it all the way down with meditation, because sometimes the biggest flex is doing absolutely nothing for five minutes.
Stress, shake plates, bouncing, and meditation, this is Everything Lifestyle. Let's make sense of wellness together. Listen wherever you get your podcasts, and head to pattisonmedia.com or everythinglifestyle.ca for more.

Trailer: Stressed Out And How it May be Killing You

Sugar is as addictive as Cocaine!  It’s sweet, seductive, and hiding in more of your food than you think.

80% of the products in your grocery store's interior aisles have added sugar, and most of us are eating nearly double what the World Health Organization recommends. Family physician Dr. Tasha Bienert joins host Linda Freeman to break down why sugar hits the same brain receptors as cocaine, what really happens in your body when you overdo it, and the simple swaps that make cutting back actually stick.

Then: is your red light mask a $200 miracle or an expensive placebo? We dig into the NASA origins of LED therapy, what the dermatology journals actually say, and why influencer promises don't always hold up.

Plus the $5.6 trillion wellness industry is racing to help you live longer. We look at biohacking, the habits with real science behind them, and the ones still catching up.

And in a story that hits close to home, lifestyle medicine physician Dr. Jennie Ding shares how she, a healthy, active woman in her 30s with zero family history - was blindsided by a prediabetes diagnosis.

Finally, therapist Claire Maisonneuve on why nootropics and focus supplements can't do the deeper work your nervous system actually needs.


In this episode:

The truth about sugar addiction, and how to break the cycle 

Do LED masks actually work?

A dermatologist's honest take, inside the booming (and pricey) business of longevity 

One doctor's surprise prediabetes diagnosis 

Why calming your nervous system is better than just supplements
