I’m a big proponent of strategic supplementation to complement a healthy diet. However, it’s no secret the supplement industry is under-regulated so we do need to be careful. 

Where possible I recommend buying supplements that are NSF certified and make their independent third party test results available to their customers on a PER BATCH basis. That way you know that what’s on the label is in the supplement you’re taking and nothing more.

This week, I’m joined by Simon Hill (@simonhill), Bryan Johnson (@bryanjohnson_), Andrew Huberman (@hubermanlab), Matthew Walker (@drmattwalker) to explore why we’ve turned sleep—our most basic biological need—into something shameful.

The cost? Diminished creativity. Foggy thinking. Even a shrinking brain (seriously).

It’s time to question the mythology of exhaustion and reclaim rest as essential to showing up fully in our lives.

Episode 923. Now streaming.

It’s a myth that plants are missing essential amino acids or that you cannot get enough protein from plant-based foods.

Protein pop-tarts. Protein ice cream. Protein cereal.

Everywhere you look, the food industry is cashing in on the protein craze. However, protein on its own does almost nothing for your muscle.

We know that protein is essential for supporting recovery, fueling your immune system, regulating hormones, and keeping your bones, skin, and hair strong. But if your goal is to build MUSCLE, protein alone won’t get you there. You have to lift weights.

Studies show that when you increase protein without resistance training, there’s no measurable benefit for muscle size or strength. Your body needs the training signal first, protein is just the raw material.

Think of it like putting all the ingredients for soup in a pot but never turning on the heat. Nothing happens.

That’s why strength training is the number one priority. Even modest amounts (8 to 12 reps to near failure, about 10 effective sets per muscle group each week) create the stimulus your body needs. Only then can protein do its job. 💪🏻

If you’re looking to gain weight here’s a few things I recommend focussing on:

1- Increasing your calories with calorie dense whole or minimally processed foods/meals (avocado, nuts, seeds, and non-tropical plant oils are great for this). 

2- Ensure protein intake is at least 1.2-1.6g per kg of body weight (ideal body weight). 

3- Complete resistance training 2-3 x per week as a minimum.

Dr Andrea Glenn is an Assistant Professor at NYU and a Visiting Scientist at Harvard. She’s a registered dietitian. And in this conversation, we cut through the noise on the questions you actually care about:

→ Are seed oils harming you, or are they protective?

→ Is butter “back,” or did the science never say what the influencers claimed?

→ Are low-carb diets the answer for diabetes, or do they make it worse depending on what you eat?

→ What does 30 years of cohort data actually show about the diets that protect against heart disease?

→ And how did the new American Heart Association guidance just publicly break with the Federal Dietary Guidelines on salt and red meat?

We also get into the diet that’s been shown to lower LDL cholesterol nearly as much as a low-dose statin — and the trial that’s about to test whether it actually prevents heart attacks.
This is the conversation for anyone who’s tired of being told what to eat by someone with a microphone and a strong opinion. The stakes couldn’t be higher. The conversation online has never been more confused. Today we cut through it.

🎧 Episode 416 — out now.

This week’s episode is a 3.5 hour deep dive on the importance of muscle for healthy aging with two guests who need no introduction -  @bradschoenfeldphd & @thealanaragon. 

Critically not only do we cover how muscle changes as we get older but what we can do to enhance this aspect of our health with both exercise and nutrition. 

I have to say this was a real treat for me to have this time with these two gents. You’re in for a real treat. 

You can watch in 4K on YouTube or listen on your favourite podcast app. To find it search ‘The Proof with Simon Hill’.

Love to hear your thoughts, questions and/or feedback in the comments.

There’s a lot of noise online about how women should train.

Zone 2 vs HIIT.
Heavy lifting vs Pilates.
Hormones, cortisol, fat loss, menopause…

But what does the actual science say?

In this episode, I’m joined by exercise scientists Alyssa Olenick and Lauren Colenso‑Semple to break down what really matters when it comes to training for health, longevity, and body composition.

We cover:

• How women should approach strength training
• Cardio myths (Zone 2, HIIT and fat loss)
• Whether women should train differently from men
• The biggest misinformation online right now

If you want a clear, evidence-based framework for training, this one’s for you.

Do soy foods increase risk of man boobs or breast cancer? 

Soy doesn’t negatively affect male hormones: PMID: 33383165

And while not definitive, research suggests soy foods may be beneficial for breast cancer prognosis and may lower risk of breast cancer development in pre and post menopausal women PMID: 35241506

And a recent 2025 statement from the American Cancer Society “In fact, there’s growing evidence that eating soy foods such as tofu, tempeh, edamame, and miso and drinking soy milk may lower the risk of breast cancer, especially among Asian women. Soy foods are an excellent source of protein. Soy protein is especially good when it replaces other, less healthy foods, such as those high in animal fat and red or processed meats. Soy foods have also been linked to lower rates of heart disease and may even help lower cholesterol.

For cancer prevention, the American Cancer Society does not recommend soy supplements. Instead, the recommendation is to consume nutrients through whole foods. Soy supplements can contain much higher amounts of isoflavones than are naturally found in foods. More research on soy supplements is needed to understand their effect on health.”

In today’s episode of @theproof I sat down with Dr Raymond Townsend (Nephrologist and Professor) to talk about all things blood pressure. 

My favourite thing about having a podcast is getting career scientists on the show who do not have a platform and are not on the podcast circuit. This conversation is a beautiful example of that.  No nonsense science from an expert who isn’t interested in social media algorithms and online engagement. In fact, this is his first ever podcast. 

This episode is part 1 of our conversation with part 2 out next week. 

Available on YouTube and anywhere else you find podcasts. 

Please enjoy

We can debate carbs, fats, and protein all day… but there’s one thing we can all agree on:
You should be eating real, whole, unprocessed food.

That’s the foundation.
It’s what every longevity-promoting dietary pattern has in common, from the Mediterranean diet to the Nordic diet.

Less ultra-processed junk. More fiber, omega-3s, fatty fish, dark leafy greens, whole grains, nuts, seeds, and olive oil.

Once you build that base, then you can tweak it to fit your body and your goals.
Maybe you thrive on higher carbs.
Maybe you feel better with more healthy fats.
Maybe you need to be more protein-aware and make sure you’re hitting at least 1.2 grams per kilogram.

There’s no one-size-fits-all plan… but a whole-food foundation is non-negotiable.

And remember: it only works if you do it consistently. Not perfectly, just consistently.

Transformation doesn’t come from crash diets or chasing trends. It comes from giving your body real food, over and over again, until health becomes your default.

For decades, people with osteoporosis were told to be careful - avoid heavy lifting, go easy on impact.

Prof Belinda Beck’s research challenged that. Her LIFTMOR clinical trials showed that high-intensity exercise is not just tolerable for those with low bone mass - it may be the most effective lifestyle intervention we have.

This episode pairs well with my earlier conversation with Dr Lora Giangregorio - together they cover the full landscape of what the evidence says about building and preserving bone density.

What is the Mediterranean diet? Pure and simple - as defined by the literature it’s a whole foods plant-rich diet that’s rich in fibre, unsaturated fats and plant protein. 

A way of eating associated with improved mood and less risk of chronic disease. And it’s flexible. You can tailor it to suit what works best for you - low, medium or high carb.
