That Paleo Show

This week Brett interviews Aarn Farmer from My Sugar Free Journey on how he lost 200 pounds (almost 100kg). Aarn thought he was a little over 250 pounds until he joined a gym with scales that went up higher and discovered that he was actually over 400 pounds! After then discovering his systolic blood pressure was well over 200 he decided it was time to do something about it. After an initial miserable trial with a juice diet he discovered that by controlling his sugar intake and managing his insulin levels better he was able to lose a staggering 200 pounds and keep it off. He shares what his biggest challenges were and how he overcame them and his tip for eating on a low sugar diet. So tune in for an amazing story of transformation.

This week Brett interviews Stephan Guyenet, author of the book The Hungry Brain about the science of over eating. With a background in biochemistry and neuroscience Stephan brings a great understanding of the research to the table and is able to explain the concepts in a very easy to understand and honest way. Stephan shares what he has learnt from examining non-industrialised societies, not only  and the way they lived and ate but also the way their brains were wired and why to come up with a very comprehensive understanding of why our brains react the way they do in our modern society. So if you want to understand why your brain is subconsciously telling your body to do the wrong thing even when you are consciously trying to tell your body to do the right thing then this is the episode for you!
