  • Can You Hack Your Hormones?

    Can You Hack Your Hormones?
    Jul 23 2025
    Get YDS Merch before July 25!!Support us on Patreon!This week on Your Diet Sucks, we’re talking hormones: what they are, what they do, and why they’ve become the latest scapegoat for every diet culture grift on the internet. From adrenal fatigue (not real) to seed cycling (also not real), Zoë and Kylee cut through the pseudoscience and explain what actually supports hormone health—like eating enough, managing stress, and getting some damn sleep. We also take a look at the unhinged history of hormone manipulation (yes, monkey testicle transplants come up), why cortisol isn’t your enemy, and what to do if your hormones actually feel off. If you’ve ever been told to “balance your hormones” with a supplement stack or juice cleanse, this episode is for you.Thanks to our sponsors:Get over 70 biomarkers analyzed and get personalized nutrition recommendations adn support, tailored specifically for athletes with Eternal's new Foundations membership.

  • Why is Everyone Obsessed With Protein?

    Why is Everyone Obsessed With Protein?

    Why is everything suddenly protein? From protein cereal to protein chips to protein water (??), it feels like the world has gone macro-mad. In this episode, Zoë and Kylee dig into the science, history, and cultural obsession behind the most overhyped, but still important, nutrient on the label: protein.

    We break down:

    • How much protein you actually need (especially if you're an endurance athlete)

    • Why protein powder might be helpful—or a waste of money

    • What makes a good protein supplement (and how to avoid the ones full of heavy metals)

    • The environmental and digestive cost of high-protein diets

    • How diet culture, aging fear-mongering, and gendered marketing shape the protein conversation

    • Why more isn’t always better—and why fiber and carbs matter too

    If you’ve ever wondered whether your recovery smoothie is necessary or if you're somehow failing by not eating 200 grams of protein a day, this one’s for you.

  • Biohacking or B.S.? The Truth About Ketone Supplements

    Are ketone supplements the next big thing in sports performance, or just overpriced hype that tastes like jet fuel? In this episode of Your Diet Sucks, Zoë and Kylee break down the science behind exogenous ketones, including what they are, how they work, and whether they actually improve endurance, recovery, or brain function.

    We explore the difference between ketone esters, salts, and precursors like Ketone IQ, plus the wild backstory—from epilepsy treatments to DARPA’s “Metabolic Dominance” program to the Tour de France. You'll learn what the research says about using ketones for weight loss, blood sugar control, and athletic performance, and why most runners probably don’t need them.
