About this podcast episode
Our conversational podcasts are based on our own coaching, long-form articles, and podcasts but narrated by Notebooklm to provide an easy conversational summary of our longer content.
It is in other words a convenient, and entertaining way to consume our denser, fact-based content.
The use of Notebooklms conversational AI for these shorter podcasts does not change the fact-based value and correctness of our content & coaching, but it is a conversation about our own coaching, and content so Notebooklm sometimes make small mistakes.
Notebooklms AI narrators are doing their own thing with our fact-based coaching & content, under the supervision of my input, so when I notice a small mistake, or I feel that they are slightly off in their conversation I try to highlight that in the video, or edit it away.
So please enjoy our high-quality conversational podcasts as exactly that, someone else discussing the fact-based things, and content we coach, do, publish, and talk about, but keep in mind that both humans and AI interpret things in their own way.
In this episode, we are covering older age & fitness.
The increased need for more protein as we humans get older, the incredible benefit of a high-protein approach together with strength training for the elderly, not just for strength and muscle mass, but better health outcomes, mobility and a much richer health span.
So buckle up, and enjoy.

Comparing SPC, UPF & Protein Levels, Fact-based Outcomes.
IN THIS ARTICLE, COACH MIKE EXAMINES TWO CONTRASTING HIGH-PROTEIN INTAKE STUDIES, ONE FROM 2005 AND ANOTHER FROM 2025. DEMONSTRATING HOW THEY RELATE TO AND ULTIMATELY VALIDATE YOUR HIGH-PROTEIN, HIGHER-SPC LIFESTYLE.
I’ll begin by introducing SPC (satiety per calorie), a modern food metric, and explain its relevance to a study conducted two decades ago. We will after that delve into the impact of ultra-processed foods (UPF) on overall food consumption and compare outcomes between a high-protein UPF intake and a lower-protein UPF intake under ad libitum feeding conditions. This comparison will illuminate how these findings fit into the broader fact-based SPC food approach.
We appreciate you
