In this no-fluff, wildly informative episode of the FASTer Way Podcast, CEO Amanda Tress sits down with naturopathic doctor and functional medicine legend Dr. Stephen Cabral to clear the air on the most polarizing fitness trends taking over your social media feed. From belly fat and cortisol to hormones and HIIT, they break down what actually works—backed by science, not internet hype.
They dive into the real reason belly fat is so dangerous (spoiler: it’s not just about how it looks—how it feels can tell you a lot). Plus, they uncover what you really need to know about cortisol and why we actually need it, carnivore diets (are they the new high-protein keto), and misinformation surrounding HIIT and fasted training for women over 40.
You'll also get Dr. Cabral’s hot take on cold plunges vs. saunas, and why walking and strength training are your most underrated tools for long-term results.
This episode is packed with science-backed strategies you can actually use. If you're over 35 and trying to cut through the noise, this one’s for you.
