  • Wellness Scams, Apple Cider Vinegar & Seed Oil Hypocrisy | Drew Harrisberg, Bsc
    Mar 17 2025
    In today’s episode, I’m joined by Drew Harrisberg, an exercise physiologist, diabetes educator, and founder of Drew’s Daily Dose. We dive into the science behind Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV)—does it actually help with blood sugar, weight loss, digestion, and overall health, or is it just another overhyped wellness trend? We also explore the power of anecdotes in the wellness industry, starting with Belle Gibson’s story and the new Netflix series on ACV. How can we separate fact from fiction when faced with bold health claims on social media? What we cover: • ACV and blood sugar – does it really help? • ACV and weight loss – what does the science say? • ACV vs. other blood sugar strategies (walking, fiber, etc.) • Potential downsides – acid, teeth damage, capsules, and more • How to take ACV without ruining your teeth • Should Simon take Bragg’s ACV as a sponsor? Ethics of podcast ads Later, Drew shares a moving tribute to his dog, Dennis, reflecting on grief, love, and celebrating life. We also talk about memory dividends and why showing up for the people (and pets) we love matters. We wrap up with a shocking magic trick, plenty of laughs, and a classic dad joke.

  • Is this supplement legitimate? Science of Fatty15 and C:15 | Bill Harris, PhD
    Mar 3 2025
    You may have heard claims that C:15 (pentadecanoic acid) is the first essential fat discovered in 90 years, a powerful longevity booster, and a game-changer for metabolic health. But how much of this is backed by solid science? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Bill Harris, a leading expert in fatty acid research, to critically evaluate the evidence behind C:15. We break down the population studies linking it to health benefits, the key clinical trials testing its effects, and whether the marketing around Fatty15 is ahead of the actual data. In this episode, we cover: What exactly is C:15, and how does it compare to other fats? The claim that C:15 is an essential nutrient—does it meet the criteria? The current evidence on C:15 and its impact on cholesterol, glucose, and inflammation Does C:15 supplementation mimic omega-3s, metformin, or rapamycin? The broader issue of patenting a naturally occurring compound For more details and supporting studies, visit the full show notes.

Solid, Updated Nutritional Information from Expert

Simon asks just the right questions in just the right way, of just the right people. The whole focus is around research-based fact rather than agendas and opinions. The information is constantly changing as we learn more, and Simon keeps on the crest of that wave.
