If you’re burned out on diets, confused by your symptoms, and tired of being told “everything looks normal,” this show is for you.
Hosted by functional nutritionists Andrew Hayes and Kat Best, we cover the health issues most people struggle with but rarely talk about. Gut problems. Hormone chaos. Fatigue. Cravings. Mood swings. The difference between sustainable fat loss and trendy weight loss. Irregular poops. (Yes, we said it.)
Each week, we give you the tools to actually feel better — without crash diets, supplements you don’t need, or 4AM workouts.
No shame. No perfection. Just more clarity, not more effort.
Because real health shouldn’t feel like a second job. It should fit your life.
Tune in for science-backed strategies, client stories, and honest conversations that make healing feel doable — and even kind of fun.

The Biggest Lies You’ve Been Told About Aging (And How to Future-Proof Your Body) l Ep 58
If your metabolism feels slower, your joints ache more, and every doctor shrugs and says “that’s just aging,” it’s easy to believe your best years are behind you. But most of what people blame on age is actually preventable — or completely reversible.
In this episode, Andrew and Kat break down the biggest myths around getting older: metabolism, menopause, muscle loss, back pain, recovery, nutrient absorption, immune health, and peptides. You’ll learn what actually changes with age, what’s lifestyle-driven (not age-driven), and the simple habits that keep you strong, independent, energetic, and capable for decades.
Future-proofing your body isn’t about fighting age — it’s about giving your biology what it needs to thrive.
(05:36) How “I’m just getting old” becomes the belief that ages you faster
(08:59) Hormone shifts, menopause, testosterone, and what’s actually normal
(16:44) The truth about muscle loss — and why lifting + protein stop it entirely
(27:13) Gut issues, nutrient absorption, and why aging doesn’t have to feel terrible
