In this episode, JJ Flizanes welcomes back cardiologist and bestselling author Dr. William Davis to celebrate the launch of his newest book, Super Body, available starting today, December 16, 2025, wherever books are sold.
Together, they explore why our culture's obsession with quick weight-loss fixes — from low-calorie diets to trending injectables — often leads to muscle loss, more visceral fat, faster aging, and even higher long-term health risks. JJ brings in her Date Your Body philosophy to highlight why resistance training is essential for staying strong, youthful, and independent as we age.
You'll hear about:
Why cutting calories leads to major muscle loss and metabolic slowdown
The dangers of visceral fat & myosteatosis
How the microbiome and endotoxemia influence body composition and aging
The overlooked roles of collagen and hyaluronic acid
Simple resistance-training approaches for real, lasting results
