This week, Stacy and Dr. Sarah dive into the science behind sugar consumption to answer whether or not eating sugar daily is healthy. They look at how sugar is broken down, how it can impact health, and what we can do to ensure we're making the best possible choices.You can find the full show notes with links to the products and articles discussed on this episode here.Listener Question:Dear Stacy and Dr. Sarah,I am a long time fan of your amazing podcast and both of your blogs, and took the AIP lecture series a couple years ago and learned so much. I have listened to the whole series at least three times, and your voices have become like part of my brain now :) I feel so much attachment to both of you, and can’t tell you how much I appreciate the contributions you’ve made to my life. My problem is sugar. I follow a maintenance AIP and my meals are great — ALL the veggies and seafood and healthy starchy veggies and working on organ meats! — but I have this one kind of ridiculous habit that I haven’t shaken. Namely, I have always been a sugar lunatic. In my twenties, I drank a million diet Cokes a day and ate just hordes of candy, and over the years I have tried to stop eating sugar a number of times but find it so hard. Even during the elimination phase of AIP I struggled — I would eat power balls and have spoonfuls of honey from the jar! Now I’m eating healthier than ever and have for years, but I eat sugar almost every evening — honey in tea, dark chocolate, some paleo treats, and if my kids have candy around, I find it so hard not to eat. I know it is not rational to eat AIP except candy of all things…Anyway, I’m hoping you might be up for a new sugar show. I feel like maybe I just need to really get why sugar is so bad. I was wondering if you could update on how does sugar affect the microbiome? Inflammation? I am hoping that maybe I can get some info that I can hang my hat on!Love and appreciate you both so much. GraceDon’t forget to subscribe to this channel and visit realeverything.com and thepaleomom.com! If you haven't yet unlocked our bonus content, checkout Patreon for exclusive behind-the-scenes content and how Stacy and Sarah really feel about the topics they discuss.

Food as Medicine: the healing power of food and how a scientific mindset allowed Stacy and Sarah to ditch diet culture in this week's episode of The Whole View, 466. We recap our health journeys and how reframing health allowed us to embrace science-backed metrics of health, such as nutrient sufficiency, for living well - inside and out.You can find the full show notes with links to the products and articles discussed on this episode here.Listener question:Hey Sarah and Stacy! Long time listener here, love all your recent shows on the covid-19 vaccine. It really helped me feel confident in my decision to go get vaccinated. I happened to get the Pfizer! But, the real reason I'm writing you today is to get your help, not for me, but for my mom. She doesn't have any diagnosed health conditions, but always complains about headaches, feeling tired, having stiff joints that make things like gardening harder, and she's always trying to lose those thirty pounds. I've been trying to get her to make some diet changes, even, as you two always say, eating some more vegetables and giving up gluten for a few weeks just to see if it makes her feel better. But, she really doesn't want to change how she's eating and doesn't see the connection between what we put in our bodies and how we feel. My question for you is -- how can I help my mom understand the healing power of food? Especially when she isn't really sick or anything, just not as healthy as she could be?Thanks again, DebDon’t forget to subscribe to this channel and visit realeverything.com and thepaleomom.com! If you haven't yet unlocked our bonus content, checkout Patreon for exclusive behind-the-scenes content and how Stacy and Sarah really feel about the topics they discuss.

I have since purchased copies of it and the cookbook for myself and family members because of the vital information in it.My question is: Having lupus and hypothyroidism causes me to steer clear of various foods and herbs, (nightshades and echinacea) and being gluten-free, dairy-free, sugar-free I am staying away from other groups of foods and dishes. How can I reach optimal health benefits and nutrients having to avoid so many things that are supposedly "good for you"? - Sandy Don’t forget to subscribe to this channel and visit realeverything.com and thepaleomom.com! If you haven't yet unlocked our bonus content, checkout Patreon for exclusive behind-the-scenes content and how Stacy and Sarah really feel about the topics they discuss.

This week, Sarah and Stacy dive into the science of PFAS and forever chemicals, why they are so problematic, and what we can do to limit our exposure and make a change.You can find the full show notes with links to the products and articles discussed on this episode here.Instead of a listener question this week, Dr. Sarah and Stacy tackle a trending topic in health-conscious communities.Science has shown, pretty unequivocally, how harmful these chemicals are for decades. It's not recent science. And what we see in modern days is regulatory agencies not being able to keep up with capitalism demands.This topic is difficult to see in something other than a "conspiracy" lens. But that is why it's important to Stacy and Sarah now, more than ever, to make sure they stick to scientific research as much as possible.There are specific areas known to have high levels of PFAS. If you know you're in one of those areas, it's possible to test your blood for your exposure levels.Stacy reminds the audience that she and Sarah are not medical professionals. So, if you have any health concerns around this topic, be sure to see a doctor.Don’t forget to subscribe to this channel and visit realeverything.com and thepaleomom.com! If you haven't yet unlocked our bonus content, checkout Patreon for exclusive behind-the-scenes content and how Stacy and Sarah really feel about the topics they discuss.
