Is Supermarket Meat from a Factory Farm Really That Bad? with Farmers Tara & Natalie | EP 309

When you hear “factory farming” do you think,.. bad? When you hear “regenerative farming” I’m guessing you hear,.. good! The reality is that these are 2 very large blanket terms that include all of the best and all of the worst possible things that are to do with farming and in this episode we unpack what those terms specifically mean from a farming perspective and from a nutrition and consumer perspective, a.k.a. you going shopping at the supermarket. This episode is really going to set your mind in a new direction about how to think about food packaging but more importantly about how farms work across the world and we’re doing with 2 female farmers, Tara Vander Dussen and Natalie Kovarik. In this episode we talked about: Farming myths that people somehow still believe Why the farming industry has a marketing problemVegan, plant based propaganda - what is it all about? The definition of factory farming - what does it actually mean?Understanding the death process from a young ageWhere does our food come fromHow food companies mess with whole real food from the farmAdditives and ingredients that aren’t the farmers fault (or responsibility)The relationship we have with death and the lifecycle of animals Direct to consumer farming / buying your meat from the farm directly Is regenerative farming really a good thing? ***PROGRAM ENQUIRIES: Tired of yo-yo dieting and feeling stuck with food?

Sugar Binges: Maybe It’s Not About Your Emotions with Psychologist Glenn Livingston Ph.D. | EP 305

What if you don’t need to do deep emotional work to break up with sugar? It’s very easy to get caught up in your story of trauma followed by continuing to eat yourself into oblivion because the deeper you go with your emotional work, the more reasons you’ll find to eat, soothe and comfort yourself - why? It’s familiar and familiar is safe and predictable. Despite that though you likely still want to change so you lose weight and live longer and that’s where today’s podcast gives both hope because it talks about recovering from sugar cravings and sugar binges without putting much emphasis on emotional drivers and instead more focus on the enforced habits and structures that surround your food. On this episode we discussed: How sugar companies sell you stuff unethically Unethical marketing strategies of sugar companies How to deal with your inner rebel - the one that wants the damn chocolate no matter what!Do rules make you rebellious with food? What to do instead. Having clear goals and clear targets to work towards so you know how well you’re doingWhy your reptilian brain acts like a 2 year oldWhy your food rules need to have some flexibility Managing the overwhelm of giving up your food FOREVER! Being binge free in the present, not tomorrow or next time. Feeding your inner pig - check episode 96 for moreYou must start identifying with the idea of “getting high with food”The science of cravings Predictable reinforcement Why random reinforcement is the worst thing you can do for sugar cravings and binges ***PROGRAM ENQUIRIES: Tired of yo-yo dieting and feeling stuck with food?

The Link Between Gut Bugs and Your Sleep Issues (part 2) with Dr Stasha Gominak | EP 303

Have you listened to part 1 of this conversation? Wowee! I recommend starting there at episode 301 to get the first half of this epic conversation. To carry on… whilst vitamin D can solve some people’s sleep problems, it turns out that there are some major implications on sleep if your microbiome is missing species or whether it’s overrun with others as a result of a poor diet for a long time, the consequence can be, poor sleep. Believe it or not your guts create necessary resources for good sleep and if your gut is out of whack (whether you have physical discomfort or not) then it’s likely your sleep is too. It’s all connected and in this conversation we explain how.In this episode we discussed:How vitamin D is connected to the functionality of the microbiome Why the bacterial species in the gut are being wiped out How B vitamins are manufactured by your gut bacteriaWhy B vitamins are called B vitaminsHow your bacterial microbiome disrupts sleep Why vitamin D deficiency AND B vitamin deficiencies are causing sleep issues Which foods can we use to repopulate the gut bacteriaDo supplements work to fix these gut issues and therefore sleep issuesWhy we need the prebiotics and the probioticsWhy washing food isn’t the best idea for your gut health ***PROGRAM ENQUIRIES: Tired of yo-yo dieting and feeling stuck with food?

How To Practice Self Awareness | CWM EP 302

How often do you have an automatic, emotional reaction to a situation? Or are they so automated that you don’t even know what is on auto-pilot and what is your own choice. Developing self awareness is the absolute number 1 most important skill to get better in your life. If you’re unable, or problems keep recurring and the same situation ends up happening time and time again it’s likely you’re lacking the self awareness you need to modify and change your contribution to the problem. On the other side of self awareness is loads of hard work, but eventually it’s peace and a much easier life. On this episode we covered:How to build self awarenessWhy will your life suck for eternity if you aren’t aware of your own failingsWho to ask to be in your self awareness team (easy to get painfully wrong) ***PROGRAM ENQUIRIES: Tired of yo-yo dieting and feeling stuck with food?

Sleep Apnea & Sleep Disorders: The Surprising Nutritional Answer (part 1) with Dr Stasha Gominak | EP 301

Do you have sleep apnea or any sleep issue whatsoever? Yes? Then this episode is for you. Finally a biological, nutritional therapy answer to sleep that isn’t about stressing less and doing meditation (both useful by the way). This is a radically different approach to fixing sleep problems, to the point that these ideas are, firstly, a new problem to the western world that we’ve likely never dealt with on mass before, and, secondly, nutritional strategies being pushed by a medical doctor despite her drug prescribing education. You just have to listen to this and part 2 is on episode 303 - check that out straight after this one.On this episode we discussed: How a medical doctor published new medical hypotheses with nutrition as the answerHow humans have changed their relationship with the sun A lack of migration causes vitamin D deficiencyVitamin D receptors downregulate in the absence of lightWhy old people either stay awake all night or fall asleep when you’re talking to themWhy our skin gets lighter the more we’re indoorsWhy vitamin D is NOT a vitamin (and why modern medicine has neglected it)Whether or not supplements are enough, or, do you need the real sunHow vitamin D receptors in the brain stem help regulate sleepHow to fix Sleep Apnea, without CPAPWhy you should be outdoors as much as possible The relationship between vitamin D and all sleep issues***PROGRAM ENQUIRIES: Tired of yo-yo dieting and feeling stuck with food?
