In this episode, we sit down with Amber Romaniuk for a deep dive into the numerous root causes of emotional eating. She discusses how the food industry has shaped our behaviors by promoting highly processed, dopamine-driven foods that hijack our brain’s reward pathways and keep us stuck in cycles of craving, guilt, and restriction.

She offers practical steps for healing, including building awareness around emotional vs. physical hunger, stabilizing blood sugar with nourishing foods, supporting digestion and hormones, and cultivating safety and self-trust instead of restriction or shame. Addressing food addiction, she emphasizes compassion, mindset work, and non-food coping tools to break binge-and-restrict loops. She also shares her insights into the use of GLP-1 medications, as well as more information about her Body Freedom Program, which helps women release diet culture, heal their relationship with food, balance hormones and digestion, and create lasting “body safety” through mindset shifts, nutrition, and emotional healing—all aimed at achieving freedom from food obsession and reconnecting with the body’s innate wisdom.Amber Romaniuk is an Emotional Eating, Digestive and Hormone Expert, with 12 years experience helping high achieving women create a level of body confidence, intuition and optimal health through powerful mindset healing, self-care and overcoming self-sabotage with food.She does this through addressing the key negative thoughts, patterns and limiting beliefs that keep women stuck in the same behaviors for years and decades, that they haven’t been able to break.Her podcast “The No Sugarcoating Podcast” has 2+ million downloads, over 600 episodes and is listened to in over 90 countries.Amber overcame her own emotional eating after gaining and losing more than 1000 lbs and spending over $50,000 on binge foods, and spending 5 years balancing her hormones and digestion.

In this “Just the Babes” episode, we’re diving into the latest health headlines regarding GLP-1s & Ozempic teeth, microplastics, "Soft Clubbing", and Gen Z's alcohol downtrend. We share some of the biohacks we’ve been experimenting with lately, and also open up about surgery and injury recovery—what’s been working, what hasn’t, and the lessons we’re learning along the way. While we love exploring new tools and tech, we keep coming back to the reminder that the best biohacks are free, simple, and accessible to everyone. Think sunlight, breath, sleep, movement, and hydration—these are the true foundations that make everything else work better. We break down how these practices show up in our own lives and why they’re essential for long-term resilience and vitality.SHOW NOTES:0:39 Welcome to the show!3:24 Alcohol consumption5:59 Better mocktails8:24 “Soft Clubbing”11:45 Microplastics15:34 Renee’s travel tips17:44 Ozempic teeth21:12 Support while on a GLP-122:42 Renee’s surgery recovery28:32 Peptides for healing30:48 Lauren’s injury recovery37:00 HRV Biofeedback38:31 Our top biohacks for you40:08 Grounding shoes42:19 Sun exposure44:22 Sleep hygiene51:29 Fasting54:10 Exercise vs Movement56:21 Upcoming Events56:49 Thanks for tuning in!RESOURCES:New Brew - code: BHBABES24Mycology PsychologyOptimal HRV (HRV Biofeedback)Eight Sleep - code: BIOHACKERBABESMimio - code: BIOHACKERBABESEp 304: Sober Lifestyle with Amanda KudaEp 301: Mimio Fasting with Dr. Chris RhodesEVENTS:Ultimate Wellness in Miami, FL - code: BIOHACKERBABESHealthspan Summit in Los Angeles, CA - code: BIOHACKERBABESHack Your Health in Tampa, FL - code: BIOHACKERBABESSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/biohacker-babes-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands
