Life today feels like a marathon we didn’t sign up for—stress, fatigue, and constant demands pulling us in every direction. Even when we eat clean, sleep well, and exercise, something still feels... off. What if the answer isn’t just more effort, but smarter tools?

Beyond the nostalgic flavors and comforting traditions, there’s a darker side to the feast we often overlook—one that’s quietly impacting your health, the environment, and even your values. From sky-high fat and sugar levels to the chemicals and antibiotics hidden in every bite, these meals are more than indulgence; they’re a recipe for long-term damage. In this episode of Fatal Conveniences, I take a deep dive into the science behind what makes the traditional Thanksgiving meal so problematic. We’ll explore how over-processed ingredients, excessive sodium, and factory farming practices are contributing to chronic health issues, antibiotic resistance, and environmental harm.

What if the timing of your meals is as crucial as what you’re eating? In today’s episode, I dive into the powerful connection between meal timing and your body’s natural rhythm—and why it matters more than most of us realize. Breaking down the science behind circadian rhythms, I look at how eating earlier in the day supports better digestion, metabolism, and even mental clarity. Studies show that eating late not only disrupts sleep but can also lead to weight gain and a slower metabolism. So, we’re going to break down why shifting calories to the first part of the day—following the body’s natural peak energy and digestive power—can transform your energy, mood, and long-term wellness. Drawing on ancient wisdom from Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine, we see how these systems have always advocated for aligning meal timing with nature’s rhythms. Both recognize that eating in sync with your body’s energy peaks and dips has the potential to support everything from digestion to balanced energy and stable weight. This episode is a return to basics: respecting the body’s natural flow for real, sustainable health. If you’re looking to feel more in tune, support your metabolism, and bring ease to your routine, let’s rethink not just what’s on the plate, but when it hits the plate. We Also Discuss: (01:57) — The Science of Meal Timing (05:08) — Circadian Rhythm’s Influence on Metabolism and Energy Use (12:36) — Morning Calories for Weight Loss and Metabolic Support (18:23) — Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine on Meal Timing (25:22) — Breakfast Like a King, Light Dinner for Energy Balance (29:01) — Practical Tips for Aligning Meal Times with Your Natural Rhythms And more… Don’t forget: You can order now by heading to darinolien.com/fatal-conveniences-book or order now on Amazon.

Protein—it’s the topic everyone’s obsessed with. But are you really getting enough, or are you falling into the trap of thinking more is always better? In this episode, I’m cutting through the noise and tackling one of the most talked-about and misunderstood areas of nutrition.
