    Low Carb MD Podcast: Check out Crowd Health EP: 382



    🎙️ Podcast Summary: Brad Williams Interviews Andy Schoonover, Founder of Crowd Health🔍 Key Points Discussed:

    In this episode, Brad Williams shares his personal frustrations with traditional health insurance and religious health share programs—citing high costs, poor service, and surprise denials. He introduces his audience to Andy Schoonover, founder of Crowd Health, as a powerful alternative he's personally adopted.


    Andy shares the origin story of Crowd Health, born from his own bad experience with insurance when he was forced to pay $8,000 out-of-pocket for a medically denied but necessary procedure for his daughter. Frustrated with the system, he created a peer-to-peer medical crowdfunding platform that empowers members to pay for care directly—at significantly reduced rates.


    • How Crowd Health works: Members pay a monthly fee plus a capped contribution to help others. Each medical event has a $500 member responsibility, with the rest crowdfunded (99.8% success rate).

    • Cost Comparison: Brad switched from paying $1,400/month with a $5,000 deductible to under $600/month max with Crowd Health for his family of three.

    • Cash Pay System Advantage: Members become “cash payers,” avoiding inflated insurance prices and benefiting from Crowd Health’s provider negotiations (often saving 40–50%).

    • Personal Experience: Brad’s family visits, prescriptions, and pediatric care were all covered quickly (within 8 days) and cheaper than through insurance or prior health share programs

    • Community-Based Funding: Big-ticket medical events (e.g., a $1M gunshot injury case) were successfully funded after negotiation brought costs way down.

    David Amerland: Built To Last Book

    www.DavidAmerland.com

    Social: @davidamerland


    In this episode, Brad Williams interviews David Amerland, a 60-year-old fitness enthusiast, black belt martial artist, and author of Built to Last. David shares insights from his 47-year personal fitness journey and breaks down the psychological and emotional components of sustaining health and vitality as we age.


    Key Highlights:

    • David’s Backstory: Martial arts became his mental and emotional anchor from age 13. Despite building a career as a chemical engineer and bestselling author of 19 books, fitness has always remained his personal sanctuary.

    • Why We Don’t Stay Fit: Built on three years of research, Built to Last explores why people struggle to stay active despite knowing the benefits. Evolutionary biology hardwires us to conserve energy, and modern life rarely requires movement—making exercise feel unnecessary or stressful.

    • Mindset is the Key: David emphasizes that fitness isn’t just a physical pursuit—it’s an identity shift. When we emotionally connect with our future self and envision who we want to be in 20 years, we’re more likely to act now. This is critical to overcoming procrastination and excuses.

    • Small Wins Matter: Even one minute of intentional exercise (like 30 squats or 10 pushups) can trigger neurochemical benefits similar to longer sessions. Consistency, not duration, drives transformation.

    • Fitness Hacks David Wishes He Knew Sooner:


      • Breathwork: Conscious breathing to calm the nervous system and manage stress.

      • Sleep: Its profound impact on longevity and mental health.

      • Recovery: Gentler, more intentional training—especially with age—is smarter and more sustainable than going full throttle.

    • Built to Last Framework

      • Begins with defining what fitness means to you.

      • Contains customizable workouts for all ages and fitness levels.

      • Designed to make fitness fit your life, not the other way around.

    • Cultural Trends: The two generations most responsive to fitness due to environmental stress? Baby Boomers and Gen Z. Brad and David discuss Gen Z’s positive shift toward health, wellness, and mental health ownership.

    • Final Message: It’s never too late to start. Whether you’re 40, 60, or 70+, consistent effort—even in small doses—will transform your body, mind, and future.

Speaking from both personal experience and years of coaching clients, Brad offers practical strategies to help regain control without sacrificing your social life.Why Bingeing Happens Bingeing often stems from emotional triggers, restrictive dieting patterns, and social habits. Brad explains that the feeling of “nothing feels as good as bingeing” is more common than most admit. While some binge on food and others on alcohol, the root issues often overlap. For deeper emotional causes, he recommends seeking professional support.Top Three Strategies to Reduce Food BingeingStabilize Blood Sugar with Protein and Fiber Start meals with psyllium husk, followed by protein and healthy fats. Choose low-glycemic carbohydrates like quinoa, brown rice, or whole grains to avoid sharp insulin spikes that lead to cravings. This approach keeps you fuller longer and less likely to overeat.Avoid the Restrict-Binge Cycle Don’t punish yourself after a binge by skipping meals or drastically cutting calories. This slows your metabolism and sets you up for another binge. Instead, eat a normal or slightly reduced calorie intake the next day and focus on balance.Interrupt Your Binge Triggers Recognize what patterns lead to bingeing—whether it’s late-night boredom, stress, or habit. Replace those routines with simple actions like taking a walk after meals, drinking tea, chewing gum, or preparing healthy snacks ahead of time.Top Three Strategies to Curb Alcohol BingeingCreate a Weekend Game Plan Plan your drinking for later in the day. Start with a healthy breakfast or protein shake, then fast until the social event. Use non-alcoholic drinks between alcoholic ones to cut down total intake. This alone can significantly reduce alcohol consumption.Eat a Protein-Rich Meal Before Drinking Eating before drinking slows absorption and helps avoid mindless snacking later. Brad often eats before going out so he’s not overly hungry when ordering at restaurants or parties, which also saves money and calories.Identify the Emotional Root of Your Drinking Use journaling to understand why you drink. Is it for stress relief, social bonding, or just habit? Finding healthier replacements like CBD, adaptogenic drinks, or non-alcoholic alternatives can support long-term change.Additional TipsBring your own healthy snacks or proteins to parties or events.Prepare mocktails or low-calorie drinks in advance.Stay hydrated and include electrolytes when consuming alcohol.00:00 Introduction: The Struggle with Bingeing00:37 Understanding Bingeing: Food and Alcohol01:08 Practical Tips for Managing Binge Eating03:45 Breaking the Binge-Restrict Cycle04:34 Identifying and Breaking Triggers05:41 Top Strategies for Alcohol Bingeing10:43 Final Thoughts and Community SupportIf you're interested in online personal training or being a guest on my podcast, "Over 40 Fitness Hacks," you can reach me at brad@over40fitnesshacks.com or visit my website at:www.Over40FitnessHacks.comAdditionally, check out my Yelp reviews for my local business, Evolve Gym in Huntington Beach, at https://bit.ly/3GCKRzV
