On June 25th 2025, in collaboration with Open Folk, we presented our first ever live interview event in Los Angeles. As Open Folk put it: "In These Lines is a live event where three artists each bring one song — not just to perform, but to explore. They sit down with Sofia Loporcaro, host of Before The Chorus, to talk about where the song came from, what it meant to write it, and what it still holds. Then they play it. Just the song, and the truth behind it."

Molly Rucker's path to health wasn't straightforward. After struggling with obesity as a teenager and disordered eating in her twenties, she found herself "skinny" but far from healthy. This disconnect sparked a deep curiosity about what true wellness actually means beyond appearances. Working at a health food store became the unexpected turning point in Molly's journey, introducing her to traditional foods and the beginning of her exploration into how genetics, neurochemistry, and physiology influence our well-being. Unlike many health approaches that focus on treating symptoms, Molly advocates for making the body "inhospitable to disease" by understanding our unique biological needs. Molly's fascination with neurochemistry eventually led her to co-found Keto Brains, a nutraceutical company offering a nootropic formulation that enhances cognitive function without the jitters or crashes associated with caffeine. The product combines alpha-GPC to boost acetylcholine (essential for focus), lion's mane mushroom to promote neuronal health, and L-theanine to create calm alertness—all delivered in a creamy MCT oil base that simultaneously supports ketone production. Beyond supplements, Molly shares profound insights about emotional regulation, explaining how emotions are essentially chemical reactions that typically run their course within 60 seconds. By creating space to observe these reactions rather than feeding them, we can develop resilience that supports our health goals instead of sabotaging them when challenges arise. Whether you're struggling with caffeine dependence, looking to optimize your cognitive performance, or simply wanting to understand the connection between your emotional responses and your brain chemistry, this conversation offers practical wisdom from someone who's personally walked the path from illness to vibrant health. Molly's science-based yet deeply personal approach reminds us that the journey toward optimal health starts with understanding our individual biology and honoring what our unique systems need to thrive. Molly shared a discount code for first-time customers of KetoBrainz during the interview.

Dr. Stephen Hussey was 34 when he had a heart attack. As a chiropractor and functional medicine practitioner who already lived a healthy lifestyle, he was stunned. But what shocked him even more was what doctors found during his angiogram: zero atherosclerosis. No plaque. Just a massive spontaneous clot. That discovery sent him down a research rabbit hole that completely changed how he thinks about heart disease—and how the human body actually works. In this mind-bending conversation, Dr. Hussey shares discoveries that flip conventional cardiology on its head. Like why your heart doesn't actually pump blood. Why cholesterol has nothing to do with heart attacks. And why your body is essentially a walking battery powered by something called "structured water." Sounds crazy? The science is there. Dr. Hussey breaks down research showing how water in your body can hold an electrical charge, how trauma literally gets stored in your tissues as damaged water crystals, and why people with chronic fatigue can't seem to "hold a charge." He also explains why the sun might be the most powerful medicine on the planet, how grounding your feet to the earth can improve blood flow, and why that constant fatigue you feel might have more to do with damaged water than damaged mitochondria. This isn't your typical heart health interview. Dr. Hussey challenges everything from the cholesterol theory to why we're told the sun causes cancer. He makes a compelling case that most of what we think we know about cardiovascular disease is not just wrong—it's keeping us sick. Whether you're dealing with heart issues, chronic fatigue, or just curious about how your body really works, this conversation will change how you think about health. Dr. Stephen Hussey is the author of "Understanding the Heart" and "The Health Evolution." He offers functional medicine consultations and speaks internationally on metabolic health.

When Jan Ellison Baszucki's 19-year-old son Matt had a manic episode at UC Berkeley, it started five years of hell. Psychiatric hospitals. Twenty-nine different medications. Therapy after therapy. Nothing worked. "I thought we'd lost him," Jan says. Matt wasn't the energetic, intellectual kid they knew. He was barely functioning, even when he wasn't manic or depressed. Then they tried something radical: a ketogenic diet. Within four months, Matt was in remission from bipolar disorder. Jan, who runs the Baszucki Group and founded Metabolic Mind, has spent the last few years diving deep into the science of metabolic psychiatry. Her message is simple but revolutionary: your brain needs the right fuel to function properly. In this conversation, Jan gets real about what it's like to watch your child disappear into mental illness—and what it feels like to get them back. She talks about the emerging research showing ketones can stabilize mood in ways medications often can't. And she shares practical advice for families who feel stuck in the traditional treatment system. This isn't about ditching medication or therapy. It's about understanding that sometimes the brain just isn't getting what it needs to heal. For some people, changing how they eat changes everything. If you're dealing with mental health issues in your family, or you're curious about this growing field of metabolic psychiatry, this conversation will give you a lot to think about. Jan Ellison Baszucki is a Silicon Valley executive turned mental health advocate whose family's story is helping pioneer new approaches to treating serious mental illness. Enjoyed this episode?

Have you ever wondered why some people exercise religiously and follow all the right diets but still struggle with weight and metabolic health? Dr. Brian Lenzkes, ten-time recipient of San Diego's "Best Doctor" award, reveals the missing pieces in our understanding of metabolic health that might be sabotaging your efforts. Dr. Lenzkes opens up about his personal journey through metabolic dysfunction despite being a practicing physician with all the "right" knowledge. When his blood sugar reached pre-diabetic levels despite regular exercise and following conventional dietary guidance, he knew something fundamental was missing from mainstream medicine's approach. The breakthrough came from an unexpected source—an elderly patient who lost 40 pounds through intermittent fasting. This led Dr. Lenzkes down a path that transformed his medical practice, helping patients come off diabetes medications completely and reverse conditions he once believed were permanent. In this conversation, Dr. Lenzkes delivers several shocking revelations. First, the blood sugar tests your doctor runs might be missing the most important marker of metabolic health—insulin levels. He explains how high insulin can silently damage your body for years before blood sugar numbers ever change. Second, he explains why muscle mass might be the single most important factor for longevity, even more significant than avoiding smoking or drinking. Finally, he demonstrates through patient stories how stress, poor sleep, and even arguments with loved ones can spike blood sugar more dramatically than eating cookies. Whether you're struggling with weight loss plateaus, puzzling blood sugar readings, or just want to understand why conventional medical wisdom keeps failing so many people, Dr. Lenzkes offers practical insights that bridge traditional medicine with cutting-edge lifestyle approaches. His message is ultimately one of hope—that with the right understanding of how our bodies actually work, many of the metabolic conditions considered "chronic" might actually be reversible. Ready to discover what might be missing in your health journey? Listen now to understand the surprising connections between stress, muscle, insulin resistance, and lasting health.

What if the root cause of severe mental illness isn't a chemical imbalance in the brain, but a metabolic disorder that can be addressed through diet? Matt Bazuki's remarkable recovery from debilitating bipolar disorder offers compelling evidence for this revolutionary approach. At just 19 years old, Matt's life spiraled into chaos as bipolar disorder took hold. Despite coming from a supportive, educated family, he found himself cycling through psychiatric hospitalizations, taking multiple medications, and even experiencing homelessness during manic episodes. Conventional treatments failed him completely – he was officially labeled "treatment resistant" while taking five different psychiatric medications that left him barely functional. The turning point came when Matt's mother discovered research on ketogenic diets for mental health. After implementing a strict ketogenic diet in 2021, Matt experienced what can only be described as a miracle – his symptoms completely resolved within months. Today, nearly four years later, he lives independently, works successfully, and has drastically reduced his medications. Matt explains the science behind his recovery with remarkable clarity. Mental illnesses like bipolar disorder may fundamentally be disorders of brain energy metabolism. For some people, switching from glucose to ketones as the primary brain fuel source creates a metabolically favorable environment that allows the brain to function normally again. This challenges our understanding of these conditions as purely genetic or as simple "chemical imbalances." Beyond diet alone, Matt follows a comprehensive metabolic health protocol that includes proper sleep hygiene, regular exercise, meditation, and circadian rhythm management. This holistic approach supports his brain's energy needs from multiple angles, creating sustainable mental wellness. Now co-hosting the BipolarCast podcast, Matt shares the stories of others who've found similar healing through metabolic interventions. His family has established the Bazuki Foundation to fund research in this emerging field of metabolic psychiatry – work that may ultimately transform how we understand and treat mental illness. Could changing what you eat change your mind? For those suffering from treatment-resistant mental health conditions, Matt's journey offers not just inspiration, but a practical pathway toward recovery that conventional psychiatry has overlooked. Listen now to discover how addressing the metabolism might be the key to mental health that millions have been searching for. Enjoyed this episode?

Sugar isn't just empty calories – it's an active driver of disease through a fascinating biological mechanism that evolved to help mammals survive food scarcity. In this eye-opening conversation with Dr. Richard Johnson, professor of medicine at the University of Colorado and author of "Why Nature Wants Us to Be Fat," we explore the unexpected ways fructose hijacks our metabolism. Dr. Johnson, often described as the "Indiana Jones of nutrition science," reveals how fructose works by actually depleting cellular energy rather than increasing it. This creates a paradoxical situation where our bodies store more fat while simultaneously making us feel exhausted and constantly hungry. The biological pathway, designed to help animals like bears fatten up before hibernation, now works against us in our sugar-saturated world. Most alarming are the connections between fructose metabolism and serious diseases. Cancer cells specifically seek out fructose to fuel their growth in low-oxygen environments, explaining why certain cancers are strongly associated with high sugar consumption. Even more compelling is the evidence linking fructose to dementia – from the earliest stages of cognitive decline showing the exact biological signature of fructose metabolism to animal studies demonstrating memory impairment after just two weeks of sugar exposure. Perhaps most surprising is Dr. Johnson's revelation that our bodies can manufacture fructose internally, especially during mild dehydration or when consuming salty foods. This explains why the combination of salt and carbohydrates is particularly problematic for weight management – they signal our bodies to convert glucose to fructose and store fat. The good news? Understanding this pathway opens doors to protection through specific nutrients like omega-3s and vitamin C, and explains why low-carbohydrate approaches can be so effective. Whether you're concerned about weight, cognitive health, or cancer prevention, this conversation offers practical insights into breaking free from sugar's powerful grip on your metabolism.

What happens when eating "clean keto" or carnivore still isn't working for your metabolism? Why are some people gaining weight despite following popular low-carb advice? Nutritionist Maria Emmerich breaks down the science behind these frustrating scenarios and offers practical solutions that work even when everything else has failed. Maria introduces us to the Protein Sparing Modified Fast method – a strategic approach that preserves precious muscle while creating the caloric deficit needed to burn stubborn body fat. Rather than a daily practice, this method serves as a powerful tool to deploy strategically when weight loss stalls or during periods of higher indulgence like holidays. With approximately 800 calories of primarily lean protein, this approach allows your body to tap into stored fat while maintaining metabolic health. The conversation tackles a controversial truth in the low-carb world: calories still matter. Maria shares stories of clients who came to her after gaining significant weight on unlimited ribeye-and-butter approaches, explaining the science of why fat cells become "overstuffed" leading to worsening insulin resistance even on clean foods. She dismantles the myth that you can eat unlimited amounts of any food – even healthy animal products – without metabolic consequences. Perhaps most encouraging is Maria's insight about taste adaptation: your taste buds completely regenerate every 15 days. This biological reality means that transitioning away from hyperpalatable processed foods becomes significantly easier after just two weeks of consistent clean eating. For those battling intense sugar cravings, this perspective offers hope that the struggle has a definitive endpoint if you can maintain consistency through the adaptation phase. From sleep optimization strategies to the truth about protein needs (hint: you probably need more than you think), Maria's practical advice cuts through nutrition confusion with evidence-based clarity. Whether you're struggling with autoimmune issues, weight loss plateaus, or simply want to optimize your low-carb approach, this episode delivers actionable insights to transform your relationship with food and reclaim metabolic health.

Dr. Susan Pierce Thompson delivers a powerful exploration into the complex reality of ultra-processed food addiction and the revolutionary approaches that enable sustainable recovery and weight loss. With her unique background as both a recovered drug addict and a brain scientist, Thompson brings extraordinary credibility to this conversation about why some foods trigger addictive patterns more powerfully than even cocaine or methamphetamine. The podcast reveals exciting developments in how the scientific community is finally recognizing the legitimacy of ultra-processed food addiction. Thompson describes the recent consensus reached by 40 international experts working to have this condition recognized by the World Health Organization—a critical step toward better treatment protocols and policy changes. This recognition isn't just academic—it could transform how schools, healthcare systems, and governments approach our relationship with food. Thompson's Bright Line Eating program demonstrates what's possible when we apply addiction medicine principles to our relationship with food. Their groundbreaking six-year follow-up research shows participants maintaining an average 14% weight loss—outperforming even the most celebrated weight loss medications without their side effects or costs. The "bright lines" approach creates clear boundaries around sugar, flour, meals, and quantities, helping participants develop automatic habits that remove the exhausting decision fatigue around eating. Perhaps most compelling is Thompson's raw comparison between drug addiction and food addiction recovery. After 30 years of sobriety from substances, she shares why food addiction presented an even greater challenge: "There's nowhere safe to go in society when you're in recovery from food... your whole life is a cue to break your abstinence." Unlike recovering drug addicts who can avoid trigger environments, food addicts face constant exposure, making their recovery journey uniquely difficult but ultimately more rewarding. Whether you're struggling with your relationship with food or simply curious about the science behind sustainable weight loss, this conversation offers profound insights that might forever change how you view ultra-processed foods and the possibility of true freedom from food obsession.

It is becoming a critical core competency patients seek from their healthcare providers. Episode Highlights: The vision behind Nutrition Network and its roots in the Noakes Foundation.
