Welcome back to the Flex Diet Podcast! Today, I’m hanging out with the brilliant Katie Emerson, Senior Manager of Scientific Affairs over at Kyowa Hakko USA, aka the people behind Cognizin (CDP Choline), one of the few brain-boosting ingredients with legit research behind it. We dig into the real science of CDP Choline, how it supports memory, focus, and cognitive performance, and where it actually fits into the human physiology engine, not the hype machine. Katie and I also zoom out into the supplement industry as a whole, chatting about what’s worth paying attention to, what’s still emerging, and how to navigate all the shiny promises out there. We even take a nerd-tour into mental resilience, genetic mapping, and the surprising potential of glutathione for health and performance. If you’re curious how targeted supplements can help you think faster, recover better, and be a more high-performing human without needing a PhD to decode marketing nonsense, this episode is for you.

...and the Rise of the Meathead Auto-Regulator Hola from Black Rifle Coffee Company in Moore, Oklahoma —where your favorite nerd is currently vibrating at 240 Hz because I made the tactical mistake of ordering “quad shot, please” and the barista said “sure, cowboy” with zero hesitation. So here we are.One man.Four espressos with half-and-half in a drink they call "Smokey Joe."And a mission: To kill the lazy, zombie, cookie-cutter rest periods that are sabotaging your gainZ.

Your favorite nerd here coming at you from Weatherford TX where I am hanging out with my coach Adam Glass and his wife Ashely. I am currently levitating three inches off my chair because holy hell… Dan Garner — yes, that Dan Garner — dropped some words that hit me straight in my surgically repaired heart. Here’s what he wrote: “My buddy Mike T. Nelson has this massive library of bite-sized videos on physiology, performance, and metabolism stuff. Each one is like 5-10 minutes. All ridiculously...
