Anti-Aging Strategies that Can Double as Workout Recovery Techniques Feb 04, 2021

Show notes

I love when treatments that are effective for one issue are shown to be beneficial for another – it’s like taking multi-tasking to the next level! This is the case with some emerging anti-aging science; strategies that have aided post-workout recovery are now showing promise in helping us slow down or even reverse the aging process. This week, I’m joined by Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation and Sports Medicine specialist Nicholas Goyeneche, MD of Ochsner Health to explore some of them, such as cryotherapy, intermittent fasting and infrared therapy. We’ll also share practical advice for layering them into your lifestyle.

Diet by DNA: How to Interpret Your Results | Part 2 Jan 14, 2021

DNA test results tell us if we're sensitive to the effects of carbs, if we metabolize caffeine quickly or if we're at an increased risk for diabetes or breast cancer. But are the results truly meaningful? This week, I'm joined again by medical research scientist Dr. Chris D’Adamo to walk through my personal DNA test; he helps interpret the results for us and explains what the data really means.

Spirited Holidays with Zero-Proof Cocktails Dec 03, 2020

Show notes

Holidays are filled with opportunity to drink beyond our usual limits, and with so many of us spending more time alone, it can be tempting to turn to alcohol to cope with the chaos. But being mindful with our alcohol intake can help us feel more energetic, balanced and focused as we head into 2021. Lifestyle and magazine editor Melanie Warner Spencer joins me to share her experience (and taste tests!) with zero-proof drinks to keep you in the holiday "spirit" - while also avoiding the hangover.

Behind the Scenes: The Creation of the Eat Fit Cookbook Nov 26, 2020

Show notes

It all started with a “What if?" What if we had a cookbook of our most popular Eat Fit restaurant dishes? And, like many projects in our Eat Fit world, the idea soon took on a life of its own. From pitching to dozens of publishers to learning how to style and shoot magazine-quality food photos, we learned so much about the importance of keeping a positive mindset, persistence and resourcefulness. This week, I share an inside look at just how the Eat Fit Cookbook came to be. Find retailers or order online at EatFitCookbook.com with promo code EatFitGIFT for 20% off for podcast listeners.
