My List of YouTube Podcasts which gives me more-insights in certain topics related to health, nutrition, wisdom, lifestyle etc

Early, 2000’s.

I always wondered as a teenager, what these ‘podcasts’ really were and how is it different from the traditional, commercial media ?

Little did I know, that i have hit the jackpot, when I started consuming these.

Basics, What are Podcasts ?

Podcasts are similar to radio programs in form, but they exist as audio/video files that can be played at a listener’s convenience, anytime and anywhere and users can subscribe it after paying a specific fee.

Below are my list of few podcasts which I personally love and would love to share with you.

Not marked in any ranking order, as each one of them has something unique to offer.

Derek Munro, from More Plates More Dates, is a Canadian youtube who is known for topics related to self-improvement in terms of health, nutrition and supplements.

  2. Sigma testrostreone booster.

3. Boost your biology

From Boost your biology YouTube Channel

Podcast reference link: https://www.youtube.com/@BoostYourBiology

Lucas Aoun is here for you all, his podcasts are related to physiological & psychological hacks, supplementation with the help of his way of quoting the clinical/research studies which will really help you to decide, if you should opt for any supplementation or not.

If you are looking for easy tips in your lifestyle which will help you to boost your health, immunity, testosterone and some anti-ageing supplements which really works ? :) This channels is for you.

Me being a Taurine supplement user for quite a while, I wasn’t sure if i need to continue it but visiting his channel helped me in understanding ins and outs of this supplement.

Lucas also provides consultation and a free 15 mins call if you are looking to optimise your mental and physical health and if you would prefer to opt for the paid programmes where they check your blood work and accordingly the changes are made in diet and supplementation if required, which I think its worth to spend money on, rather than consuming garbage and unnecessary load of supplements.
