    Ep 225: What Supplements Should I Be Taking? With Expert Zoe Karli
    Jun 17 2025
    Forget the supplement overwhelm—what if you could narrow it down to just five game-changing supplements that actually move the needle on your health? Instead of drowning in endless online studies and conflicting advice, maybe it's time we got real about what our bodies actually need. How about we call them health insurance pills? Or better yet, longevity boosters? In this week's Thin Thinking Podcast, I'm joined by wellness expert and supplement strategist Zoe Karli for a no-nonsense conversation about the top supplements that can transform your energy, balance, and long-term health. Whether you're tired of wasting money on supplements that don't work... Or you're overwhelmed by all the conflicting information out there... Or you're ready to create a simple, science-backed supplement strategy that actually fits your budget... This episode will cut through the noise and give you a clear roadmap to supplementation that works—without breaking the bank or cluttering your medicine cabinet. So put down that confusing study your husband just sent you, take a breath, and come on in! SUPPLEMENT LIST FROM ZOE KARLI If you only could take a few supplements, here are my MUST take, suggestions (and to note, I am not a doctor). ZETA Body offers everything but #2. (Coming very soon). D+K 5000 - Vitamin D isn't a supplement or just any old "vitamin", it's actually a precursor to a very important hormone that helps the body make Calcium available to send (primarily) to bones and teeth. Added bonus, helps manage inflammation. Arguably, one of the best longevity supplements. ESPECIALLY FOR WOMEN because of our decreasing bone density (of all ages). Creatine, at least 5G / day. No, it doesn't make you "bulky" - an old wives-tail. It is a naturally occurring compound stored in our muscles, and simply put: acts on energy reserves and supports cognitive function (it crosses the blood brain barrier, not all things do). It's synthesized from amino acids in the liver, kidneys and pancreas AND via our diets - red meat and fish. Needless to say, we need it, it's critical and shouldn't be overlooked. I recommend this brand: "CLEAN, Creatine, get it on Amazon! Only use Creapure and if you don't like powder, gummies are available). Probiotic. Research continues to show our guts our like our second brains. They filter so many toxins. Our food sources are becoming less and less nutrient dense. We need to supplement the natural "bugs" (bacteria) in our guts in order to help them function properly. If you are looking into ZETA, our phytonutrients are also a great way to supplement - they have pre and probiotics and can act very similarly to a multi-vitamin. If you take a probiotic solo, please add a good, complete multi. Methylated Bs. B6 +B12 are critical for certain processes for gene expressions. Simply put, these two Bs have separate but complementary roles for energy, neurotransmissions and have significant influence on mood, energy and brain function. Methylation is a fancy word for a molecule that binds to another molecule then speeds up or helps navigate gene expression (very layman). Which leads me to my last suggestion. Brain health is SO important (and even more these days with all the over-stimulation, blue light, etc.). My newly co-developed nootropic (fancy word for brain health). I'm biased, but Z-83, a very novel nootropic. I'm proud to have developed it w/the founder and creator of creatine (as we know it - the most studied supplement). Z83 decreases that lurking brain fog, stimulates but subtly, without crashes or jitters all while calming our over-stimulated, anxious and stressed minds and bodies. Trully the HERO of your day. A daily performance supplement for brain and body.

How one "sports supplement" is actually your secret weapon for brain health and longevity. Why women need to think differently about supplementation (especially after 30).

    Ep 224: Prevent Stress Eating with this One Easy Hack
    Jun 10 2025

    Eating to calm ourselves down has practically become a national pastime. So much so that maybe it’s time we renamed our go-to snacks. Instead of “chips,” how about emotion food? “Cookies”? Maybe anxiety relief bites?

    In this week’s Thin Thinking Podcast, I’m diving into this very real and very common behavior—and giving you a simple yet powerful hack to shift it.

    👉 Or soft-baked sweets when you’re bored or emotionally drained...

    This episode will teach you how to check in with what’s really going on inside, so you can tune into your true needs—and tune out of the knee-jerk urge to reach for food.

    So close the cupboard, take a breath, and come on in!
