In this episode, Matt and Matt chat with Isabelle Caputo, Director of Team & Customer Experience at Complement and longtime NMA Radio listener... and now our new co-host!
We talk to Isabelle about her running history and her ultramarthon goals, and how she manages to do it all with young children and a busy life. We get into how we all prioritize exercise as we age and our families grow, along with our favorite habit tricks for keeping it going.
In this episode of the new Outlier Health Podcast, Matt Frazier and Matt Tullman dive into the media's favorite new term for attacking plant-based meats: ultra-processed food, or UPF.
But if ultra-processed foods are the main problem with modern diets, does this mean foods that are just processed (not ultra) — kitchen staples like oil, sugar, and refinded flour — are better than we thought?
We break down four categories of food processing, the latest research on the health ramifications of ultra-processed foods, and what this research means for everyone seeking a healthy, sometimes-but-not-all-the-time relationship with UPF.
We’ve kept it quiet so far, but it’s time to spill the beans: Complement co-founders Matt Frazier and Matt Tullman are working on a book together, and we’re starting a podcast to share the process and the ideas in the book.
In this “soft launch” episode, we look at how the health advice influencers give online is so drastically different from the advice doctors used to give us, and how it got to be that way. We talk about some crazy morning routines and the “optimization” mindset towards health that, even if it works, makes it very hard to be happy at the same time.
Carnivore, vegan, keto — the discourse on social media around nutrition thrives on misinformation and extreme takes.
Not only is that unhelpful to those of us looking for solid nutrition advice, but it can be dangerous for many people, especially teenagers.
In this episode of No Meat Athlete Radio, Matt Tullman interviews Maddie Saliba, who gets hundreds of thousands of views through positivity, not clickbait.
For much of his life, Adam Sud considered every new day worse than the previous. It wasn't until he hit rock bottom and entered rehab did he begin to have a different outlook on life. Today Adam is a behavioral wellness & nutrition expert, international speaker, and the founder and CEO of Plant Based for Positive Change, where he uses plant-based nutrition, mindfulness practices, and wellness to transform lives.
In today's episode, Adam shares his powerful story and leaves you with takeaways you'll be thinking about for weeks.
Did you know that nearly 40% of all food is wasted in America?
That comes to 119 billion pounds of food, which equates to nearly 130 billion meals.
All wasted.

How?

It's now clear:
You can succeed as an athlete while eating a plant-based diet.
From endurance runners to professional football players, athletes across disciplines are going vegan and breaking records.
But does thriving as a plant-based athlete require certain considerations or care?
For example, does plant protein help build and repair muscle the same way animal protein does?
And what about calories and creatine?
In today's interview with Matt Frazier, NY Times bestselling author of The Plant-Based Athlete and founder of No Meat Athlete, we don't dwell on the question of if it's possible...
Matt cuts straight to what you need to know about how to thrive as a plant-based athlete.

When you hear someone say they have a healthy metabolism, they're usually referring to one thing:
Burning calories.
But metabolic health is about so much more than how quickly we burn through food.
It's about energy, cell function, and eliminating waste.
And it leads to healthy blood pressure, cholesterol levels, and nutrient absorption.
So how do we nurture a healthy metabolism?
Today's interview is with Nicolette Richer, a Regenerative Medicine educator who specializes in metabolic health.
She outlines a clear diet and lifestyle blueprint for a thriving metabolism.

Does eating a healthier, whole-food plant-based diet feel out of reach?
You could follow the typical advice repeated across the internet...
For some people, those tips might be useful.
But when you're busy with work or school, juggling meals for a family, or unconfident in the kitchen, scheduling additional time for prep and complicated recipes can feel like an insurmountable burden.
That's the way it felt for Jill and Jeffrey Dalton when they first started eating a plant-based diet.
Neither of them enjoyed cooking, and most of the foods they tried to cook were foreign.
So they put together a strategy that has made their meals not only healthy, but fun, quick, and easily repeatable.
And now each week they share their meals with hundreds of thousands of people through the Whole Food Plant-Based Cooking Show.
Today we sit down with Jill and Jeffrey, who share their journey to whole food plant-based cooking, and how the method they used to transform their diet.

Here's a shocking stat:
It's estimated that the global weight loss industry — built around crash diets, liquid meal replacements, and appetite suppression — was worth over $220 billion in 2021.
And it's only growing year over year.
And yet, studies show that the vast majority of dieters (anywhere from 37-97%, depending on the study) consider it a failure.
Either they never lost the weight to begin with or gain it back as soon as they go off their diet.
There has to be a better way...
And according to Kiki Nelson, a bestselling author and founder of Plantiful Kiki, there is.
It's sustainable (so you don't regain the weight), flexible (no crazy crash diets), and does a whole lot more for your health than just helping you shed a few pounds.
As part of today's Headliner event, Kiki walks us through how she lost over 70 pounds on a bountiful plant-based diet, and what she has learned from year's of coaching others to do the same.

Few parts of your body impact your health as much as your gut.
A healthy gut microbiome can boost your energy, elevate your immunity, and increase your longevity.
An unhealthy gut does the opposite... creating a lot of bloating and digestive discomfort in the process.
But what exactly is a gut microbiome, and how does a plant-centered diet impact it?
That's what we dive into with Dahlia Marin, RDN, LD, CGN and James Marin, RD, two of the world's leading plant-based gut health specialists and the founders of Married to Health.

We need a food revolution.
In the United States, we spend 19% of our entire Gross Domestic Product on healthcare — 80% of which is treating the symptoms of chronic disease.
Chronic diseases that are directly fueled by diet and lifestyle.
As Ocean Robbins, a bestselling author and co-founder of Food Revolution Network, puts it:
Our healthcare system isn't helping people get better, we're just trying to manage an ongoing breakdown.
But there's some good news:
A recent study published in Plus Medicine found that switching from a typical diet to an optimal plant-centered diet — even as late as the age of 60 — could add eight more healthy years of life.
And if you start sooner you can add even more.
In this first Plantapalooza Headliner discussion, Ocean outlines his approach to helping people make that life-changing transformation.
An approach that has helped millions of people set off their individual food revolutions.

What's the key to longevity? According to Valter Longo and his bestselling book, The Longevity Diet, it's a combination of fitness and a mostly plant-based diet.
That in itself isn't groundbreaking by any means, but what is unique about Longo's approach is the regular fasting element.
In today's episode, Matt and Doug walk through the tenets of Longo's philosophy, and Matt shares his recent experience completing a 5-day Prolon fast.
