Finally releasing this partnering episode. Ironically, we had difficulty finding time to record together. In typical busy couple fashion, we get caught up in our routines and it is hard to break out of them (even for something beneficial). Together we share husband and wife perspectives on roles, responsibilities and how we support each other's lifestyle goals.

Is this product and products like it any better for you? What about dairy in general? Are humans "supposed" to consume milk from other animals and do we need it in adulthood?

Low Fat and No Fat foods are no longer popular (thank goodness). For a long time, FAT took the blame for cardiovascular disease. Well, as it turns out, encouraging people to consume low-fat foods inadvertently increased the public's consumption of sugar and ultra-processed foods. Instead of improving the health of the general public, cardiovascular disease continued to increase along with the average waistline of most Americans.
Not too fast though, doctors were beating the low-fat drum too. Now what?
Well, first, anytime an essential nutrient is being blamed for all health woes you should immediately question said advice. Second, listen to this episode to find out why fat is actually an important part of your diet, which fats you should consume, and how much.

Carbohydrates are the most recent victim of the diet industry. The reality is that your body needs carbohydrates. Unless you have a medical reason to severely limit your carbohydrate intake (e.g. drug resistant epilepsy), consuming a diet moderate in high quality carbohydrates carries fewer long term risks and is much more sustainable.
This episode is the second of a multi-part series about nutrition where you will learn to think about carbohydrates in terms of simple vs. complex instead of good vs. bad. We will also cover carbohydrate intake needs needs and when to eat them.

How often have you said this? "I don't have time to exercise." If you don't have time to exercise, you are doing too much. I brought on a special guest, my husband, and former workout partner (when you listen you will understand why I said former) to break down this topic. Together we discuss how I overcame my natural mom/wife/woman tendency to put everyone else first and do all the things and finally take care of myself by TAKING time to exercise.
