Ricci Flow Nutrition Podcast

by Cameron Borg

Welcome to the Ricci Flow Nutrition Podcast. In this series, I discuss a host of topics related to health, wellness, nutrition, science and medicine. I get the opportunity to learn from some of the brightest and most forward-thinking minds in the world. This podcast invites fresh thoughts and ideas about our health and the health of our planet.

  • Michael Holick: Vitamin D & Leveraging Sunlight For Health

    Michael Holick: Vitamin D & Leveraging Sunlight For Health

    Michael Holick, MD, PhD, is an American endocrinologist and world’s leading expert on Vitamin D. He is known for his discovery of the active form of Vitamin D and the development of the assay for the circulating form - one of the most ordered assays ever generated. Michael has specialised in conditions including psoriasis, osteomalacia and hypermobility syndromes. He is the author of several popular books including “The Vitamin D Solution” and “The UV Advantage”. Michael’s work has had a huge impact on medicine and is the recipient of many awards including the Linus Pauling Prize in Human Nutrition, the Robert H. Herman Award from the American Society for Clinical Nutrition and NIH’s General Clinical Research Centre's Program Award for Excellence in Clinical Research. He has battled myopic and biased dermatologists essentially because his work brings a broader context to the conversation of health and sun-exposure; a topic that has become very controversial because of the doubling-down of both professionals and institutions on the idea that sunlight is harmful, which is undeniably false. Michael continues to preach the message of sensible sun-exposure as well as working with patients and researching to further understand the role of Vitamin D and its related compounds in human health.

  • Gaétan Chevalier: Earthing & Bioelectromagnetism

    Gaétan Chevalier: Earthing & Bioelectromagnetism

    Gaétan Chevalier, PhD, is an expert in engineering physics, atomic physics and laser spectroscopy. He is a world-leading expert on the effects of earthing (otherwise known as grounding) on human biology. Gaetan has been involved in earthing research for over 20 years and founded the Earthing Institute. He spent four years of researching plasma physics and nuclear fusion at UCLA, and then served as a professor at CIHS. Dr. Chevalier is currently lead faculty at CIHS, visiting scholar in the Department of Family Medicine & Public Health, School of Medicine, UC San Diego, and Director of the Earthing Institute and Research Director at Psy-Tek.

  • Jack Kruse: Light, Water & Magnetism: The Foundation of Health

    Jack Kruse: Light, Water & Magnetism: The Foundation of Health

    Jack Kruse is a practising neurosurgeon with particular interest and expertise in quantum biology. Jack has been at the forefront of health for decades, prioritising the foundational aspects of what makes life possible on this planet; light, water and magnetism. His approach is extremely parsimonious and the story it weaves has more explanatory power than conventional approaches with regard to the decline in human health over the last century. Jack has uniquely tied in the fundamental science of physics and quantum mechanics to the world of biology, as it is the only way we can truly understand and begin to mend the problems we now face. Our conversation centres around the impacts of our non-native electromagnetic field exposures, the unique and stunning properties of water, and the semiconductor network that drives our physiology.

  • John Mitrofanis: Biophotons, Internal Melanins & Photobiomodulation

    John Mitrofanis: Biophotons, Internal Melanins & Photobiomodulation

    John Mitrofanis, PhD, is a world leading researcher on the impact of photobiomodulation and neurodegenerative disease. His work has been centred around seeking effective drug-free treatments and preventative measures for Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s disease. A former professor of anatomy at the University of Sydney, John is now based in France, where he works at the biomedical research centre, Clinatec in Grenoble France. John is beginning exciting work on biophoton release, examining how photobiomodulation might alter the release of these photons from neurones and other cell types. In his book, Run in the Light, John outlines the most current understanding of the pathologies involved in Parkinson's disease, and how both exercise and photobiomodulation can be used as inexpensive, simple and essentially no-risk modalities to both prevent and delay the progression of the disease. John is extremely humble and open-minded; excellent qualities to explore deep scientific questions. Listen to our previous conversation John's Work - Run In The Light Book - Why and how does light therapy offer neuroprotection in Parkinson's disease? - Does photobiomodulation require glucose to work effectively?

  • David Raubenheimer & Stephen Simpson: Nutritional Geometry & The Protein Leverage Hypothesis

    David Raubenheimer & Stephen Simpson: Nutritional Geometry & The Protein Leverage Hypothesis

    David Raubenheimer is a Professor of Nutritional Ecology at the University of Sydney who specialises in nutritional and appetite regulation. His approach is comparative, using ecological and evolutionary diversity to understand these interactions. David’s studies of insects, fish, birds and a variety of mammals have helped develop a new approach to human nutrition-related problems, such as the dietary causes of obesity. Stephen Simpson is a Professor in the School of Life and Environmental Sciences at the University of Sydney. He has a background in experimental psychology, zoology and nutritional biology. Stephen is one of the world’s foremost entomologists and nutritional biologists, and in 2015 he was made a Companion of the Order of Australia for eminent service to biological and biomedical science. David and Stephen have been working together for decades on a unifying approach to nutrition and energy balance. Their investigations began with the question of why animals in the wild are so capable of regulating their food intake as to avoid the conditions of excess that humans are experiencing at startling rates. This led them to investigate the impacts of various ratios of macronutrients on food intake in animals from locusts to primates. Their findings led them to formulate the “Protein Leverage Hypothesis”, which broadly states that animals prioritise the consumption of protein and eat various foods until a ‘target’ of protein is met.
