Spontaneous healing. UAPs. Near Death Experiences. Manifestation. Psychic phenomena. Angels. Nothing is off limits if it can be approached with curiosity and rigor. MBB started as a conversation about mental health — and quickly became something much bigger. Because the deeper you go into what it means to be human, the faster you run into questions science hasn’t fully answered yet. Hosted by neuroscientist and cultural icon Mayim Bialik and spiritual explorer Jonathan Cohen, MBB is a multi-award-winning podcast where science and spirituality meet. Together they break down the assumptions, the misperceptions, and the boundaries between disciplines — and every breakdown is a breakthrough. This is where the biggest questions get taken seriously — and where you realize you’ve never been alone in asking them. Can the mind actually heal the body? Can quantum physics explain psychic phenomena? What do Near Death Experiences reveal about the nature of consciousness and the seat of the human soul? What if the only thing separating you from your own intuition - or even God - is the assumption that it’s out of reach? And if governments are publicly acknowledging the existence…","last_synced_at":"2026-07-17T16:20:27.664994+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/mayim-bialik-s-breakdown-1365756"},"episode":{"title":"The GLP-1 Warning No One Is Giving You: Dr. Stacy Sims on Muscle Loss, Birth Control, Perimenopause & the Female Physiology Research That Was Never Done","slug":"the-glp-1-warning-no-one-is-giving-you-dr-stacy-sims-on-muscle-loss-birth-control-perimenopause-the-female-physiology-research-that-was-never-done","published_at":"2026-05-19T07:30:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/mayim-bialik-s-breakdown-1365756/the-glp-1-warning-no-one-is-giving-you-dr-stacy-sims-on-muscle-loss-birth-control-perimenopause-the-female-physiology-research-that-was-never-done","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/mayim-bialik-s-breakdown-1365756","url":"https://www.podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/pdst.fm/e/claritaspod.com/measure/pscrb.fm/rss/p/arttrk.com/p/PMMIC/prfx.byspotify.com/e/mgln.ai/e/1047/traffic.megaphone.fm/MASL5501642037.mp3?updated=1778867836","audio_url":"https://www.podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/pdst.fm/e/claritaspod.com/measure/pscrb.fm/rss/p/arttrk.com/p/PMMIC/prfx.byspotify.com/e/mgln.ai/e/1047/traffic.megaphone.fm/MASL5501642037.mp3?updated=1778867836","summary":"What if everything you’ve been told about fitness, hormones, dieting, and “healthy habits” was built for the WRONG body? In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Dr. Stacy Sims (exercise physiologist and leading expert in female nutrition & performance) exposes the shocking truth about why women are STILL misunderstood in science, and how it’s silently wrecking health, metabolism, and longevity. Dr. Sims breaks down: – Why women are drastically underrepresented in research (and why it’s more complicated than just sexism) – Hidden biological & hormonal differences that make “one-size-fits-all” health advice completely ineffective for women – Dark side of GLP-1 weight loss drugs, diet culture, and over-exercising, and how they’re quietly destroying quality of life – Strength training: Why lifting heavy is the key to fat loss, brain health, longevity, & hormonal balance – Alarming link between contraceptives, brain development, anxiety, & bone density in young women – Why fasting doesn’t work the same for women & how it can backfire hard – Why women NEED higher body fat & why chasing “lean” can be harmful – Overlooked connection between muscle, glucose control, brain function, & osteoporosis prevention – How poor nutrition is ruining your sleep (and the surprising food that can fix it fast) – Dangers hiding in peptides – Why most multivitamins are failing you (and how too much of ONE nutrient can actually harm you) – Nutrient deficiencies almost everyone is dealing with (especially if you’re busy, stressed, & overworked) – Why diet & exercise feel impossible for so many women & the systemic reasons behind it – Science behind saunas, cold plunges, & whether they’re actually worth it – Creatine explained like never before: brain fog, stress resilience, ADHD, sleep cycle…","meta_description":"What if everything you’ve been told about fitness, hormones, dieting, and “healthy habits” was built for the WRONG body?
