Episode notes
INSIGHT

Whole Foods Restore Body Feedback

  • Extreme dietary dogma dulls internal feedback; whole real foods restore appetite and body signals.
  • Eating hyper-palatable processed foods masks hunger and emotional cues needed to rewire habits.
ADVICE

Choose God Foods Over Ultra-Processed

  • Start by classifying foods as "God foods" (whole, from the earth) versus ultra-processed products.
  • Replace or reduce processed items gradually and add phytonutrient-rich whole foods for measurable benefits.
ADVICE

Change The Food Environment

  • Create environmental shifts like pantry cleanouts, farmer's market trips, and gardening to support whole-food choices.
  • These proactive changes make healthy options the default and reduce reliance on willpower.
