About this episode

In this Fitness Stuff for Normal People episode, Marianna and Tony are mixing it up! Instead of diving deep into just one topic, they’re bouncing through four big ones, breaking each down in bite-sized doses. First, they tackle NAD+ and NMN supplements—do they really hold the secret to longevity? Then, it’s onto the animal-based diet trend: who’s it actually good for? After that, they chat about microplastics and if they’re worth the worry. Finally, they wrap things up with tips for building the perfect bedtime routine for the 40% of us who just can’t fall asleep. Perfect for a quick hit of info without the fluff!
