Today's episode is the second part of my myth busting chat with nutrition researcher, Alan Aragon. If you haven't tuned into part 1 (episode 57) yet, it is a MUST listen. In case you haven’t heard of Alan Aragon, he is a nutrition researcher and educator with over 20 years of success in the field. He is known as one of the most influential figures in the fitness industry’s movement towards evidence-based information. Alan writes a monthly research review on his website providing cutting-edge theoretical and practical information and his work has been published in popular magazines as well as the peer-reviewed scientific literature. He co-authored Nutrient Timing Revisited, the most-viewed article in the history of the Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition (JISSN). He also is the lead author of the ISSN Position Stand on Diets & Body Composition.   Alan maintains a private practice designing programs for recreational, Olympic, professional athletes and of course regular people striving to be their best. You can find Alan on his website and I highly recommend you follow his Instagram.   In today’s podcast (part 2), we start by discussing paleo and keto diets and their long-term success, we then talk about protein amounts for fat loss and muscle gain, how to lose fat and gain muscle mass simultaneously, we discuss dairy and “inflammation”, highly processed foods and flexible dieting, biohacking your health and finally, we discuss Alan’s tips for following credible people online.
