Over the past year or so, I’ve gotten into podcasts more and more because I love being able to listen and learn while I’m cooking, cleaning, driving, exercising, or taking the dog for a walk.  I wanted to share my current favorites in case you’re looking for ways to learn more about how to improve your health.

1. The Model Health Show – A well-rounded show hosted by Shawn Stevenson that deals with a wide variety of topics – so far I’ve listened to episodes on sleep, nutrition, fitness, entrepreneurship, and medicinal mushrooms.  If you have any issues with insomnia, I highly recommend Shawn’s book, Sleep Smarter.
2. The Genius Life – This one is less than a year old, but I’ve been a fan from the beginning after reading Max Lugavere’s book, Genius Foods.  He interviews the leading experts on ways to keep your brain healthy and prevent Alzheimer’s.
3. The Doctor’s Farmacy – Dr. Mark Hyman covers so many critical health topics on this show.  One episode that I highly recommend if you’re considering or already taking anti-depressants: Can you beat depression with food?
4. The Wellness Mama Podcast – A weekly podcast series covering the health topics of real food, stress, sleep, fitness, toxins, natural living, and much more to give you actionable steps to improve your family’s health.  I just started listening to this one recently, but I love what I’ve learned so far, especially Why Everything We Know About Probiotics Is Wrong.
5. Balanced Bites – Focuses on strategies to stay healthy through Paleo.   The two hosts are funny and also answer listener questions – I love when education can be combined with fun personalities! My favorite episode thus far:  Soy, Goitrogens, & Hypothyroid 

What are your favorite health or fitness related podcasts?  I’d love for you to share below as I’m always looking for more to add to my list.

My #1 tip for staying healthy year-round?  Optimize your Vitamin D levels!  It’s important to get your levels tested at least annually (and sometimes more often).  Get 15% Off Walk-In Lab Vitamin D Tests & Panels!

Thanks for reading!
