Things are getting a bit weird these days. If you’re a little bit too committed to your health some people call you out as having an Eating Disorder, some people say you’re obsessed. You might feel super deflated whilst you’re around people that can’t relate to what you’re going through and it can rip you off the bandwagon permanently which means you are stuck in being super aware that you’re not doing the right thing for yourself, but still acting in a way that you don’t want - it’s a self-betr...

I decided to eat like a dinosaur for a month - the T-rex kind - so that I could discover what the carnivore diet hype is all about. With thousands of claims all over the internet at the benefits for autoimmune disease, chronic disease, mental health issues, metabolic syndrome, and obesity I just had to put together my own research study with an N of 1. In this episode I share all the details from the amazing stuff all the way to explosive poop realities - it’s a juicy episode. In This Episode I ...

The nutrition world is confusing. Diet’s come and go and with those, it seems so does our body fat stores and our health. We drop 5, we gain 7, we drop 10, we gain 15… and so the cycle goes as our life moves on. Inevitably leading to a moment in time where we give up because we can’t figure this whole food thing out. Well, hold onto your hat because in this episode we dive into the fundamental idea that should underpin every single diet to make it successful and to reduce overeating and excessiv...

Are you forever yelling at your kids to get off their damn phones? Or the Xbox? Or the Computer? Or the TV? Maybe you’re yelling at your partner who seems to pay little attention to you because they’re always fully absorbed in a game. Screen addiction is so real that it is listed as an actual mental health disorder by the world health organisation and it’s been added to the In This Episode We Cover: How screens and dopamine addiction are destroying the family unit Why the authoritative parenting...

Sick kids are becoming so common that it seems like it’s a matter of drawing out something from the un-lucky dip to see what your kid has. The fact is that being unlucky has very little to do with sick children… it doesn’t mean there aren’t unlucky kids or people in the world of illness and disease - of course there are, but when we create a human from parents that are unhealthy or unwell, we’re not really putting our best offspring forward.. The discussion we dive into today is about how unheal...

Do you cook with vegetable oil? If so then it’s time for a life changing event… listening to this podcast. Unfortunately, many parts of the food and nutrition conversation is underpinned by an economic gain from before you and I were born. Not only will this give you a history lesson but also a bit of a health revelation and well, we all need one of those. In This Episode I Discuss: Feeling misaligned with the platforms that allow us all to connect The history of vegetable oil through the indust...

Vegan was all the rage for a while and now carnivore is going gangbusters -2 ways of eating that are at either end of the diet spectrum, at least philosophically. However, if we look at the reason humans eat food it really is a different conversation. If we measure diets based on the micronutrients that they provide then maybe vegan and carnivore are no longer opposites but in fact the difference between… 1st and last. There is no doubt that carnivore has been helping heal and cure people of hea...

Do you blame willpower for not being strong enough to commit to the latest diet… only to find that it is yet another diet in a long list of diets that haven’t quite done what you wanted to because you either didn’t stick to the plan or totally gave up when someone offered you a chocolate smeared bagel? Willpower is a word we throw around but the truth is that it is much deeper than that so if you have struggled to commit to nutritional changes then this episode is going to be one that blows your...

It’s as if the weight loss secret has been locked up with the Kernel’s 11 herbs and spices and no one has access to it. No one ever! Since it’s gotten to this point, it might be time to shift the attention away from the advice and more to other parts of the weight-loss equation that have changed over time as well but not really been in view of the people instructing you to lose weight. If you look at problems in the dark with a spotlight, you’ll only treat what you see and totally miss the other...

As if family politics didn’t needed another injection of chaos, yet here we are at Christmas time following the instructions of the mainstream media to unitive, segregate and discriminate against family members due to their (usually well informed) choices about what to do with their body - it’s nuts that I’m having to do this episode and that most people are encouraging us to take a monumental step backwards in human progress.

Life is a mythical beast. It can feel all over the shop and equally exactly what we want it to be. This flux that occurs between chaos and clarity is difficult, if not impossible to interpret as our rational mind perpetually seeks for rhyme, reason, and logic to make sense of things, which it turns out is not the best way to deal with the existential nature of disorder. You’ll be happy to know that there is a better way to put your thoughts in alignment that are in favour of a more positive and ...

Our ego is often challenged by the idea of a ‘simple answer’ or a ‘simple truth’, we become skeptical, suspicious, and uncertain because we’ve been convinced that if we’re not research experts our own knowing or knowledge cannot be true because life is so incredibly complex. Fortunately, the simple answer can often be the most helpful but it is only made simple by one's willingness to accept it and remove the complexity that the individual seeks to project onto it. Earthing and grounding are one...

Our own behaviour is potentially one of the biggest conundrums you’ve ever come across in your life. Why is this easy and why is that hard? Why can that person do that, but I can’t? It seems like the never-ending pursuit of a shadow. The good thing is, as Dr. Demartini highlights in this episode, all that is missing is the framework of thinking about the self. When you have the framework right, you can solve any problem be it stress, family, sexual, relational, emotional, trauma, nutritional, or...

How long can you go forward, full steam ahead, ignoring the horrible things that have happened until the whole system breaks apart? A month.. a year… a decade…. Or worse, a lifetime? Or will you be stuck in this place of resentment and again for the past and disgust and disappointment for the present and hopelessness for the future. There is no arguing that it’s a tough road, dealing with trauma from the past and there is no real handbook on how to get it right, but on this episode, we talk with...

Believe it or not, the food industry, which happens to be a significant pillar of our the economy in which we live, rarely has your health and wellness at the centre of their decision-making. The consequence of that is that the processing and manufacture of all foods are subject to the fastest, cheapest path to get from farm or factory to your belly and for that path to be possible it means lots of toxins, chemicals, additives, and preservatives are created and embed in all your favourite produc...

Behaviour change is hard stuff, am I right? “I want to be different but… I can’t seem to make it happen”... might feel like a familiar story and you’re not alone if it is. Diet and health transformation has a dirty little secret and it’s that ‘information does not equal transformation’. We know this because the world has the internet and if more information made us better then we’d all be rich, sexy and happy. The reality is that changing our behaviour is challenging work and we need more than i...

If there is anything that is true in most people’s food consumption, it is that eating more plants that grew in the dirt, is probably going to be an extremely positive thing for the state of their body by reducing inflammation, replacing other toxic foods, and giving your gut bugs something better to digest. Whilst going fully vegan or plant-based might not be your jam this one is certainly a good one to listen to if you want to add more plants into your diet. On This Episode We Cover: The vague...

If you’ve got a friend in a ‘health’ multi-level marketing company then it is likely you’ve heard that the amount of nutrition in a single apple is no longer what it used to be 50 years ago… to get the same amount of nutrition as you did back then, it’s likely you need closer to a kilo of mainstream supermarket apples. However supplements too have to come from somewhere and so instead of using the narrow-minded western thinking of solving everything with more, bigger, better, capitalist thinking...

Does the host of this show eat only or mostly plants? It seems in the common tongue the word health is synonymous with ‘vegan’ or ‘plant based’ which to many of us healthy eating practitioners, gurus, and experts out there is quite funny as we see the marketing genius playout on BOTH sides of the food conversation. This doesn’t mean that there aren’t lots of people making health decisions with plants and the same amount of people making healthy choices whilst eating lots of meat! In This Episode...

Can women Intermittent Fast or more importantly, should women Intermittent fast? This is a question I hear often and thus I wanted to dedicate an entire podcast episode to answering this question. As you can see by the part 1, I realised midway through that this really needs a lot of time to get down to the nitty-gritty information but needless to say any beginner questions about hormones will be answered here, and any more you’ve got will ideally be answered on future ‘parts’.

Irrelevant of the stage of your life that you’re at, your hormones are likely going to be a significant conversation at some point.

Not ideal but this is the world we’ve created… the good thing is we can create a better world for you, one that supports your hormonal health and that prioritises a state of natural balance...

For better or for worse mental health challenges have become a regular conversation - for better because it’s great that how people are feeling is becoming something other people care to talk about - for worse because it sucks that people feel so down, but irrelevant of the current tyrannical tornado, anxiety, and depression are things that can strike at any time. Interestingly though, our nutrition and our gut health that receives that nutrition can actually play a big role in how we feel and p...
