What if your body's natural rhythm could unlock your health and well-being?

In this transformative episode of Super Life, I’m joined by a groundbreaking natural medicine practitioner, Olivia, who sheds light on the circaseptan rhythm — a seven-day biological cycle influencing our health, healing, and even trauma recovery. Together, we explore the intersection of science, spirituality, and nature to understand how our bodies are deeply connected to the environment and the cosmos.

Olivia shares her fascinating journey from growing up immersed in holistic, intuitive healing to pioneering a practice rooted in both ancient wisdom and cutting-edge science. She recounts her first patient’s miraculous remission from cancer, how observing patterns in nature inspired her research, and why the body's memory of birth trauma is central to its cycles of renewal. This episode is an invitation to listen to your body, reclaim your connection to the natural world, and align with your own rhythm for optimal health.

We Also Discuss:

(00:03:34 - 00:04:28) The symbiotic relationship between nature and the human body
(00:07:12 - 00:07:55) How narratives about illness can shape our healing process
(00:18:24 - 00:19:50) The circaseptan rhythm: understanding the body’s seven-day cycle
(00:27:13 - 00:28:37) How the body stores and purges trauma
(00:36:20 - 00:37:12) Birth as the body’s foundational trauma and its biological impact
(00:40:13 - 00:41:44) Insights from ancient cultures on holistic living
(00:43:20 - 00:44:43) Breakthroughs in oncology and the significance of seven-day chemo cycles

Superfood Adaptogens: The Natural Secret to Beating Stress & Boosting Energy 26:07

منذ 6 أيام26:07

26:07

Are adaptogens truly powerful, or are they just another wellness trend? In this episode of Super Life, Darin Olien dives deep into the science and history of adaptogens, breaking down what they really do for the body. From his decades of superfood hunting, Darin shares firsthand experiences discovering powerful botanicals like ashwagandha, Rhodiola, maca, and Schisandra, and how these ancient remedies are finally being recognized by modern science. He also uncovers the hidden truth about supplement quality, the best adaptogens for stress relief, and why some companies are misleading consumers with under-dosed, ineffective products. If you want to reduce stress, boost energy, and understand the REAL benefits of adaptogens, this episode is a must-listen. What Are Adaptogens? Definition: Adaptogens are compounds that enhance the body's resilience to stress and promote recovery by normalizing physiological processes, boosting energy and endurance, and protecting against cellular damage. Used in Ayurveda, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and Indigenous Healing Practices for centuries. Modern science is now validating—or challenging—these ancient uses. Scientific Evidence on Adaptogens for Stress Relief Comprehensive Benefits of Adaptogens A 2023 review confirmed the effectiveness of adaptogens in managing conditions linked to chronic stress, including anxiety, depression, fatigue, and cognitive disorders. The study highlighted commonly used adaptogens such as Rhodiola Rosea, Panax Ginseng, Eleuthero, and Ashwagandha as having significant therapeutic potential (Altanova & Korolyova, 2023) . Human Trials Show Adaptogens Can Reduce Stress A randomized, placebo-controlled trial found that adaptogenic supplements significantly improved stress resilience in 215 elite athletes. Markers such as cortisol levels, fatigue severity, and cognitive function showed measurable improvements (Hovhannisyan et al., 2017) . The Mechanism Behind Adaptogens' Effect on Stress Adaptogens regulate stress response pathways, particularly the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, controlling cortisol levels and stress markers like nitric oxide. This means they help maintain homeostasis and protect against both acute and chronic stress (Pawar & Shivakumar, 2012) . Effectiveness in Mental and Behavioral Disorders A systematic review on adaptogens found that Rhodiola Rosea, Eleutherococcus Senticosus, and Schisandra Chinensis all had documented effects on stress-related disorders, particularly by modulating neuroendocrine function (Panossian, 2013) . Ashwagandha and Rhodiola Specifically Target Stress and Fatigue A 2017 study reviewed the effects of Ashwagandha, Rhodiola, and Bacopa on cortisol levels and fatigue. The study concluded that these herbs significantly reduced stress-related fatigue and improved cognitive function (Ajala, 2017) . Potential Industry Bias in Adaptogen Research Some studies point out that while adaptogens have shown promise in treating stress and aging-related diseases, there is still limited large-scale human clinical data, and more rigorous studies are needed. The variability in adaptogen potency due to genetic and environmental factors complicates assessments of their true effectiveness (Panossian et al., 2020) . Additionally, some adaptogen formulations are standardized by supplement companies, which raises concerns about industry influence on the research outcomes. Most Shocking Findings Adaptogens Can Mimic Stress to Build Resilience: They act as mild stress mimetics, triggering the body’s adaptive stress response in small doses, similar to how a vaccine stimulates the immune system (Panossian et al., 2020) . Cortisol Regulation is Key: Studies show adaptogens normalize elevated cortisol levels, preventing burnout and cognitive decline (Ajala, 2017) . Elite Athletes Showed Significant Gains: Athletes taking adaptogens had a measurable improvement in reaction time, stress tolerance, and performance, suggesting real physiological benefits (Hovhannisyan et al., 2017) . Key Adaptogenic Herbs & Their Scientific Evidence 1. Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) Study: “A Review on Adaptogenic Activity of Ashwagandha (Withania Somnifera): An Ayurvedic Appraisal” Dosage Used in Studies: 300-600 mg/day Key Findings: Ashwagandha significantly reduces cortisol levels, enhances stress resilience, and improves cognitive function (Shrilata et al., 2017) . Direct Quote from Study: "Ashwagandha has been shown to significantly reduce stress-related cortisol levels and improve anxiety symptoms in clinical trials." 2. Rhodiola Rosea Study: “The Effects of Adaptogens on the Physical and Psychological Symptoms of Chronic Stress” Dosage Used in Studies: 200-600 mg/day Key Findings: Rhodiola improves mental clarity, reduces fatigue, and stabilizes stress-induced hormonal changes (Ajala, 2017) . Direct Quote from Study: "Rhodiola Rosea has demonstrated significant anti-fatigue and anti-stress properties, improving cognitive function and resilience in individuals exposed to chronic stress." 3. Schisandra Chinensis Study: “Adaptogens in Mental and Behavioral Disorders” Dosage Used in Studies: 500-1500 mg/day Key Findings: Schisandra enhances adrenal function, improves focus, and has neuroprotective effects (Panossian, 2013) . Direct Quote from Study: "Schisandra has adaptogenic effects that enhance cognitive performance, improve stress resilience, and protect the nervous system from oxidative stress." 4. Maca Root (Lepidium meyenii) Study: “Effects of Adaptogens on the Central Nervous System” Dosage Used in Studies: 1500-3000 mg/day Key Findings: Maca supports energy levels, hormonal balance, and mood stability (Panossian & Wikman, 2010) . Direct Quote from Study: "Maca root exhibits adaptogenic activity, particularly in enhancing physical stamina and resilience against psychological stress." Shocking Research Insights Adaptogens Mimic Stress to Build Resilience Some researchers describe adaptogens as “mild stress mimetics”, triggering small stress responses that strengthen the body's ability to handle major stressors (Panossian et al., 2020) . Clinical Trials on Elite Athletes Prove Effectiveness A randomized controlled trial on 215 elite athletes found that adaptogens significantly improved stress tolerance, reduced cortisol, and enhanced reaction time (Hovhannisyan et al., 2017) . Industry Bias: Are Adaptogens Overhyped? Some studies highlight a lack of large-scale, independent research and potential conflicts of interest in studies funded by supplement companies (Panossian et al., 2020) . Final Thoughts: Science or Pseudoscience? Science-Backed Benefits Exist: Studies show adaptogens modulate stress response systems, reduce fatigue, and improve mental performance. More Human Trials Needed: Many studies rely on animal models or small-scale trials. The lack of large-scale, independent clinical trials leaves some uncertainty. Potential Industry Bias: While there is strong evidence for adaptogens, commercial interests may be influencing research directions and outcomes. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: (00:00:00) Introduction – The growing hype around adaptogens: real or marketing? (00:02:15) The Power of Plants & Adaptogenic Herbs – Why ancient cultures relied on them for thousands of years. (00:04:19) Are Adaptogens Actually Stress Relievers? – What the research says about their effects. (00:06:21) How Stress Affects the Body – The connection between modern lifestyle and chronic stress. (00:07:05) The Science of Adaptogens & Stress Response – How they regulate the nervous system. (00:09:09) The Best Research-Backed Adaptogens – Ashwagandha, Rhodiola, ginseng, and more. (00:11:32) Why Your Supplement Might Be Useless – The industry’s biggest problem: poor quality. (00:13:45) Adaptogens & Athletic Performance – What studies show about energy, stamina, and recovery. (00:16:20) The Problem with Western Medicine Ignoring Adaptogens – Why ancient wisdom is finally being validated. (00:19:18) The Best Way to Take Adaptogens – Should you use tinctures, powders, or capsules? (00:21:10) How to Find High-Quality Adaptogens – What to look for in supplement brands. (00:23:40) Final Thoughts & How to Use Adaptogens Daily – The best way to integrate them into your routine.

How the Food Industry Is Destroying Your Health—And How to Fight Back 20:23

منذ 12 يومًا20:23

20:23

Introduction: The Problem We Can’t Ignore We live in a world where the food we eat is supposed to nourish us, but what if it's actually making us sick? Pesticides, soil degradation, and nutrient-depleted crops are all part of our modern food system, contributing to rising cases of neurological disorders, metabolic diseases, and immune dysfunction. The research is clear: exposure to certain pesticides has been linked to cognitive decline, Parkinson’s disease, and an increased cancer risk. At the same time, the way we farm today is stripping our food of the vital nutrients our ancestors took for granted. So, the question isn’t just about avoiding chemicals—it’s about finding food that truly fuels life. The solution? Organic, regenerative, and locally grown produce. Let’s break down the science and give you real reasons why it’s never been more important to care about where your food comes from. The Science Behind Pesticides and Health Risks The Hidden Dangers of Conventional Farming Pesticide residues in conventional food contribute to long-term health risks, including cognitive decline and neurodevelopmental disorders in children. According to Holzman (2012) in Organic Food Conclusions Don’t Tell the Whole Story, "Pesticide dietary risk is a function of many factors, including the number of residues, their levels, and pesticide toxicity." (Holzman, 2012) . Organophosphate pesticides, commonly used in industrial agriculture, have been directly linked to Parkinson’s disease. As Mie et al. (2017) state in Human Health Implications of Organic Food and Organic Agriculture, "Epidemiological studies have reported adverse effects of certain pesticides on children’s cognitive development at current levels of exposure." (Mie et al., 2017) . Pregnant women consuming conventional produce showed higher levels of pyrethroid insecticides in their bodies compared to those eating organic. Curl et al. (2019) in Effect of a 24-week Randomized Trial of an Organic Produce Intervention found that "3-Phenoxybenzoic acid (3-PBA, a biomarker for pyrethroids) concentrations were significantly higher in conventional produce consumers compared to organic consumers." (Curl et al., 2019) . The Cancer Connection The International Agency for Research on Cancer has classified several pesticides used in conventional farming—such as glyphosate and malathion—as likely carcinogens. Hemler et al. (2018) in Organic Foods for Cancer Prevention—Worth the Investment? found that "Participants with the highest frequency of organic food consumption had a 25% lower risk of being diagnosed with cancer during follow-up compared with those with the lowest frequency." (Hemler et al., 2018) . The Nutrient Density Solution: More Than Just Pesticide-Free Higher Nutrients in Organic & Regenerative Foods Organic fruits and vegetables contain higher levels of vitamin C, essential minerals like magnesium and iron, and more powerful antioxidants. Maloney (2014) in Comparative Study on Nutritional Quality and Detection of Pesticide Residues states, "Organic foods are better in taste, appearance, firmness, and nutrient content when compared to conventional foods." (Maloney, 2014) . Organically grown produce has 20-40% higher levels of antioxidants than conventionally grown produce, which help protect against inflammation and chronic diseases. According to Mie et al. (2017), "Differences in the composition between organic and conventional crops include a modestly higher content of phenolic compounds in organic fruit and vegetables." (Mie et al., 2017) . The Simple Steps to Better Food Go Organic Whenever Possible – Reduce your pesticide exposure and increase the nutrient density of your food. Support Local & Regenerative Farms – Look for farmers using soil-restoring practices that make food healthier. Grow Your Own – Even a small backyard garden or balcony pot can produce pesticide-free, nutrient-rich food. Buy Seasonal Produce – Seasonal food is fresher, richer in nutrients, and often grown closer to home. Prioritize the Dirty Dozen – If you can’t go 100% organic, at least choose organic versions of the most pesticide-laden produce, like strawberries, spinach, and apples. Conclusion: Take Back Control of Your Health Our food choices today impact our health for decades to come. Science shows that organic, regenerative, and locally grown food isn’t just a trendy choice—it’s a necessity. From reducing pesticides to boosting essential nutrients, switching to better food sources is one of the most powerful steps you can take to live a longer, healthier life. So, are you ready to make the change? Bibliography: Holzman, D. (2012). Organic Food Conclusions Don’t Tell the Whole Story. Environmental Health Perspectives . Curl, C., et al. (2019).

In this episode of Super Life, Darin Olien dives into phthalates, a class of toxic chemicals found in food packaging, personal care products, medical devices, and even children’s toys. Despite mounting evidence linking phthalates to hormone disruption, infertility, obesity, and chronic illness, these chemicals remain largely unregulated in the United States. Darin breaks down why phthalates are everywhere, how they impact your body, and what you can do to protect yourself. He also highlights Minnesota’s groundbreaking SF 188 bill, which aims to force food manufacturers to test and disclose phthalate contamination for the first time in U.S. history. If you care about your health, your family, and the toxic load in your daily life, this is a must-listen episode that will make you rethink what you’re consuming. Government Responsibility in the Spread of Phthalates Phthalates are chemicals used to make plastics more flexible and durable. Since the mid-20th century, they've been incorporated into countless consumer goods, from food packaging to personal care products. This widespread use is largely due to regulatory inaction and the prioritization of industrial interests over public health. In the United States, agencies like the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) have been slow to regulate phthalates, despite mounting evidence linking them to serious health issues. These include endocrine disruption, reproductive harm, and chronic illnesses such as obesity and diabetes. Unlike Europe, which has banned certain phthalates in food packaging and children's products, the U.S. has often allowed industry self-regulation, leading to widespread contamination in consumer goods. The Industrial Agricultural Revolution and Processed Foods The post-World War II industrialization of food production significantly increased the use of phthalates. As food manufacturing scaled up, plastics became integral in packaging and processing equipment, leading to phthalate leaching into our food supply. Highly processed foods are particularly susceptible due to multiple points of plastic contact during production and storage. Studies have shown that individuals consuming more processed and fast foods have higher levels of phthalates in their bodies. Minnesota's Legislative Action: A Step Forward In January 2025, Minnesota State Senator Heather Gustafson introduced Senate File 188 (SF 188), a bill requiring food manufacturers to test their products for phthalates and publicly disclose the results. If passed, this legislation would be the first of its kind in the U.S., aiming to increase transparency and encourage manufacturers to reduce phthalate levels in their products. According to Senator Gustafson, "Minnesotans have the right to know whether the food they are eating and serving their families is contaminated with toxic phthalates. My bill will help consumers make healthier buying decisions and create a strong incentive for food manufacturers to get plastic chemicals out of our food." advocacy.consumerreports.org Why This Matters This bill is crucial because it: Increases Transparency: For the first time, food companies would be required to test for and disclose phthalate levels, creating public awareness of the contamination problem. Encourages Stricter Regulations: Public disclosure could lead to consumer pressure for stronger nationwide bans and restrictions. Prioritizes Public Health: It challenges the longstanding prioritization of industry preferences over public health, acknowledging that chemical exposure is a public health crisis. Addresses Chronic Illness: With rising rates of metabolic disorders and hormone-related diseases linked to endocrine-disrupting chemicals like phthalates, holding manufacturers accountable is a step toward reversing this trend. Products Commonly Containing Phthalates and Associated Health Risks Phthalates are pervasive in many consumer products. Here's a breakdown of common sources and the potential health implications: Personal Care Products: Items such as nail polishes, hair sprays, aftershave lotions, cleansers, and shampoos often contain phthalates. fda.gov Food Packaging and Processed Foods: Phthalates can leach into food from packaging materials and during processing. Diets high in dairy and meat have been associated with higher levels of phthalate exposure. webmd.com Medical Devices: Some medical devices, including intravenous bags and tubing, contain phthalates to increase flexibility. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov Household Items: Products like vinyl flooring, shower curtains, and certain furniture may contain phthalates. toxicfreefuture.org Children's Toys: Some toys, especially those made from flexible plastics, can contain phthalates. toxicfreefuture.org Health Risks Associated with Phthalate Exposure Phthalates are known endocrine disruptors, meaning they can interfere with the body's hormonal systems. Potential health effects include: Reproductive Issues: Exposure has been linked to reproductive problems, including reduced fertility. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov Developmental Problems: Prenatal exposure may lead to developmental issues in children. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov Respiratory Issues: There is evidence suggesting a link between phthalate exposure and respiratory problems, such as asthma. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov Metabolic Effects: Some studies have associated phthalate exposure with metabolic disorders, including insulin resistance and obesity. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov Steps to Reduce Phthalate Exposure To minimize exposure to phthalates: Choose Phthalate-Free Products: Opt for personal care items labeled as phthalate-free. Limit Processed Food Intake: Reducing consumption of processed foods can decrease phthalate exposure. Use Alternatives to Plastic: Whenever possible, choose glass, stainless steel, or other non-plastic materials for food storage and household items. Stay Informed: Regularly check resources like the Environmental Working Group's Skin Deep database to find products free from harmful chemicals. How You Can Take Action While Minnesota is leading the way, collective action is essential to drive nationwide change. Here are steps you can take: Support the Bill: If you're in Minnesota, contact your state legislators to express support for SF 188. You can find more information and track the bill's progress here . Sign Petitions: Look for petitions advocating for the reduction of phthalates in consumer products and add your voice. Stay Informed: Follow organizations like Consumer Reports and Clean Water Action, which are actively involved in this issue. Reduce Personal Exposure: Limit consumption of highly processed foods, use glass or stainless steel for food storage, and avoid products with "fragrance" listed as an ingredient, as it can be a source of phthalates. Active Petition to Support Minnesota's SF 188 As of now, there isn't a specific petition available for Minnesota's SF 188 bill. However, you can take proactive steps to support this legislation: Contact Legislators: Reach out to Minnesota state legislators to express your support for SF 188. Personalized messages can be impactful. Stay Informed: Monitor the bill's progress through the Minnesota Revisor's Office website. Conclusion Minnesota's initiative is a significant step toward addressing the pervasive issue of phthalate contamination. However, true accountability requires federal-level bans, a shift toward non-toxic alternatives, and a rethinking of industrial food production. By staying informed and taking action, we can collectively push for a healthier future. Bibliography Consumer Reports.

What if your body's natural rhythm could unlock your health and well-being? In this transformative episode of Super Life, I’m joined by a groundbreaking natural medicine practitioner, Olivia, who sheds light on the circaseptan rhythm — a seven-day biological cycle influencing our health, healing, and even trauma recovery. Together, we explore the intersection of science, spirituality, and nature to understand how our bodies are deeply connected to the environment and the cosmos. Olivia shares her fascinating journey from growing up immersed in holistic, intuitive healing to pioneering a practice rooted in both ancient wisdom and cutting-edge science. She recounts her first patient’s miraculous remission from cancer, how observing patterns in nature inspired her research, and why the body's memory of birth trauma is central to its cycles of renewal. This episode is an invitation to listen to your body, reclaim your connection to the natural world, and align with your own rhythm for optimal health. We Also Discuss: (00:03:34 - 00:04:28) The symbiotic relationship between nature and the human body (00:07:12 - 00:07:55) How narratives about illness can shape our healing process (00:18:24 - 00:19:50) The circaseptan rhythm: understanding the body’s seven-day cycle (00:27:13 - 00:28:37) How the body stores and purges trauma (00:36:20 - 00:37:12) Birth as the body’s foundational trauma and its biological impact (00:40:13 - 00:41:44) Insights from ancient cultures on holistic living (00:43:20 - 00:44:43) Breakthroughs in oncology and the significance of seven-day chemo cycles Don’t Forget...
