What makes a morning routine useful? Dr Greg Potter and Charlie Edmondson put celebrity habits under the microscope.

They explain how timing, fasted cardio and food choices can shape performance and wellbeing. Plus, they discuss why shorter, darker days can leave us feeling lower, how daylight affects the body clock and whether SAD lamps are a practical substitute when getting outdoors is difficult. *NEW* Watch full episodes on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@themethodpod Key moments: 05:55 - Victoria Beckham and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson's Morning Routines 19:31 - Why Winter Can Make Us Feel Worse 31:05 - Do SAD lamps work? 📧 Send us your health questions for future episodes, by email or voice note [email protected] About Thriva: Thriva is a proactive health platform built for the modern age.

What is insulin resistance and what can you do about it? In this episode, Greg and Charlie speak with Dr Lucas Denton about insulin resistance: how insulin manages energy, why cells become less responsive to it, which clues may suggest a problem and the practical habits that can improve insulin sensitivity. Lucas also shares the changes he made to his own lifestyle after recognising signs of metabolic syndrome in his own results, which led to him to losing 30kg and bringing his abnormal blood markers back into the normal range.
