Today, I am blessed to have Dixie Huey. Dixie is the founder of Favor Fat, whose objective is to help you regain your vitality and lose fat with integrative coaching, straight talk and focus on nutrient rich, real, whole foods. She is on a metabolic mission to help people improve their health and reclaim the vitality we all deserve, one delicious nutrient-dense, authentic, whole-foods meal at a time. Eating in America is convenient, mindless, and disconnected from the pleasure and sustenance it is supposed to provide.

Dixie is also the author of The Nourishment Mindset which is about eating real, whole foods to improve your health and rediscover your vitality one delicious meal at a time.

Her health journey is one of acquired knowledge, personal failure, and paradox: most health coaches aren't foodies, and most international culinary marketers aren't elite athletes or have an eating disordered past. After a lengthy fight, she discovered salvation in what she feared the most: natural dietary fat. She now teaches her customers the Nourishment Mindset, which teaches them how to improve their metabolic health and lose weight while enjoying the pleasures of the table and real, entire, naturally nourishing foods.

In this episode, Dixie shares her extensive knowledge about health science while relating it to her own experiences. Tune in as she discusses and answers questions about calories, losing weight vs. losing fat, workout routines, and many more!

[6:46] Do Calories Really Matter?

· We don’t need to count calories. However, calories do count.

· It should work for you for a long time but as we age, our bodies change and what used to work isn’t going to do so forever.

· What really matters the most is the nutrient density of what you eat.

· Dixie firmly believes that our bodies and brains have hunger and satiety signals due to the endocrine system’s influence.

· Counting calories is difficult because of all the mathematics involved.

· When you think more about nourishment and pleasure through nourishment then you’re more focused on something that’s more sustainable and pleasurable.

[14:46] Common Misconceptions on Losing Weight

· You could be breaking down muscle if you’re doing too much cardio or excessive exercise due to your goals.

· Metabolic meters lie to you regarding the calories you lost during workout. What’s showing you is what would you have burned with your basal metabolic rate sitting on the couch plus the additional calories burned.

· The human body is not a math equation, a calculator, or a bank account. It’s a very complex and amazing chemistry lab. We all need to stop treating it like a calculator and start treating it as a beautiful creation.

· If you can find something that you love and brings you joy, you’re going to get pleasure from it, and it’ll be a nice experience for you.

· A lot of people look at exercise as something they’ll have to suffer through just to burn calories. Because of that it’s going to be fleeting and not last very long.

[36:15] A Morning Routine to Own Your Day

· If you wake up in bed and just start running through and think you have to do a lot of stuff, it basically turns your hormones on, such as Cortisol to start the day.

· How you start your day should almost be a blueprint for how you want your day to go.

· Dixie’s pro tip is to not put your phone in your bedroom. You can’t have a phone face indent.

· Set your intention for the day. You’re not going to get it if you are looking at your cell phone the whole time.

[45:08] The Nourishment Mindset & Cholesterol Paranoia Syndrome

· Her favorite chapter is called CPS, cholesterol paranoia syndrome.

· There are so many people walking around with side effects taking statins. The number needed to treat is insane.

· Dixie isn’t saying statins should go away but there are also people who propose stagnating the water in certain countries.

· She hopes that someone can just say that there’s another story to it because she believes that a lot of people are swallowing statin pills just for insurance.
