Think your lungs are fine just because you don’t smoke? That’s what I used to think too—until I saw the research. 🫁 This video is all about why lung health matters for everyone—not just smokers—and how your diaphragm might be the most underrated muscle in your body. 📍 In this video, you’ll learn: Why lung strength is a bigger deal than most people realize How your diaphragm influences oxygen delivery A simple at-home breathing exercise that actually works 👉 Subscribe to my channel for more science-backed health tips: https://www.youtube.com/@Betterbodychemistry?sub_confirmation=1 💌 Join my email list for weekly insights you won’t hear at your doctor’s office: https://dashboard.mailerlite.com/forms/383415/84168808166589779/share #WorldLungDay #LungHealth #BalloonBreathing #DiaphragmTraining #BetterBodyChemistry #ScienceBasedHealth #InsulinResistanceSupport

High LDL cholesterol doesn’t always mean the same thing. Sometimes the gates that clear cholesterol are broken (often genetic or hormonal), other times the delivery system is faulty — that’s insulin resistance. In this video, I break down the difference so you can understand what’s really driving your cholesterol numbers. 👉 Subscribe for more science-backed health insights: https://www.youtube.com/@Betterbodychemistry?sub_confirmation=1 👉 Get extra tips + updates on my email list: https://dashboard.mailerlite.com/forms/383415/84168808166589779/share 👉 Ready to go deeper?

High Cholesterol Explained: Gates vs. Delivery Problems
When diet and exercise don’t fix cholesterol, something else might be at play… your genes. In this video, I unpack familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) — one of the most common inherited conditions. FH makes LDL cholesterol build up in the blood because the liver’s LDL receptors (the “loading docks”) don’t work properly. Sometimes the doors are broken, sometimes they’re missing, and sometimes an over-eager enzyme called PCSK9 scraps them altogether. 👉 If your cholesterol has stayed stubbornly high despite your best efforts, this short will help you understand why. 💡 Key takeaway: If LDL is high because of a genetic glitch, it really does matter. ________________________________________ 🔔 Subscribe to the channel for more science-based stories: https://www.youtube.com/@Betterbodychemistry?sub_confirmation=1 📩 Join my email list for practical tips: https://dashboard.mailerlite.com/forms/383415/84168808166589779/share 💬 Book a one-on-one “Let’s Talk Cholesterol” consult: https://tidycal.com/drsandy/talk-cholsterol ________________________________________ #FamilialHypercholesterolemia #Cholesterol #LDL #BetterBodyChemistry #PCSK9 #HeartHealth #FH #MetabolicHealth #HighCholeserol

How HDL Does the Dirty Work | Better Body Chemistry High LDL gets all the bad press — but did you know HDL is the real cleanup crew in your bloodstream? 🚛✨ And low HDL is actually the REAL problem when you are insulin resistant. In fact, low HDL is one of the criteria for the condition, not high LDL. In this short, I’ll show you (in plain English) how HDL swoops in when LDL particles get damaged, and why these “hazardous waste trucks” are critical for your health. 👉 Subscribe for more: https://www.youtube.com/@Betterbodychemistry?sub_confirmation=1 💌 Want more plain-English stories about cholesterol and hormones?

🕒 How Do Gut Bacteria Tell Time? Every late-night snack isn’t just a little indulgence… it’s confusing a TRILLION tiny timekeepers in your gut. And when they lose track of time, you risk weight gain, insulin resistance, and disrupted metabolism. In this short, I’ll walk you through fascinating research from the Weizmann Institute showing how gut microbes follow daily schedules — and how irregular meal timing can throw them off, with real consequences for your waistline and health. ✅ Learn why your gut bacteria rely on meal timing (not sunlight or temperature) to stay in rhythm. ✅ Discover what happens when you eat at odd hours — and how this can literally reprogram your microbiome. ✅ See why “eating on schedule” is one of the simplest hacks to protect your metabolism. This is just one piece of the bigger circadian rhythm puzzle.

Did you know your blood pressure pulses to the rhythm of the sun? This isn’t sci-fi. It’s geomagnetic biology — and it’s real. Every day, the sun blasts charged particles toward Earth, subtly rocking our planet’s magnetic field. A new study found that your blood pressure dances to this magnetic beat — with rhythms that echo the sun’s activity. 🌞 Women seem especially tuned in to this cosmic DJ… 🧲 And there’s not much we can do to escape the groove. In this short, I explain the science behind the Ap index, geomagnetic storms, and what they might be doing to your body — no rocket ship required. 👋 Love learning quirky-but-true science like this? → Subscribe to my channel https://www.youtube.com/@Betterbodychemistry?sub_confirmation=1 → Get weekly e-mails https://dashboard.mailerlite.com/forms/383415/84168808166589779/share #bloodpressure #geomagnetic #spaceweather #betterbodychemistry

Why do some people need 5x more vitamin D than others? Two people. Same dose. One improves. The other barely budges. Turns out, it’s not just about sunshine or supplements… it’s about what your body does with the vitamin D once it’s in there. And if you’re carrying more fat on the inside — even at a “normal” weight — that might be part of the problem. I share stories like this every week — unpacking what’s really going on in your body, and how to work with your biology instead of against it. 🧬 Want to get smarter about your health — without the fluff? 💌 Join my list here: https://dashboard.mailerlite.com/forms/383415/84168808166589779/share 🔔 And if you like science with a side of common sense, hit subscribe. https://www.youtube.com/@Betterbodychemistry?sub_confirmation=1 #vitaminD #vitaminDdeficiency #insulinresistance #fatmass #betterbodychemistry
