itunes_podcast_icon — 18 – Addressing nutritional bologna with guest Tom Naughton of Fat Head Jan 19, 2010
Show notes

(duration 40:54)

In this episode we interview the creator of the documentary film Fat Head: You’ve been fed a load of bologna
http://fathead-movie.com
http://tomnaughton.com

Fast food may not be healthy, but most food people buy in the grocery store isn’t too healthy either

Compared to paleolithic humans, we have way more access to carbs

Though self-responsibility is key, we’ve all been given a lot of bad information, such as that fat is bad and abundant carbs are ok

Unfortunately, most journalists are sympathetic to regulation and taxation, which CSPI promotes, in a vain attempt to control people’s choices and supposedly make the world a better place

The so-called lipid hypothesis, that eating fat raises cholesterol and causes cardiovascular disease, was flawed from the start

Rather than being objective, science is often controlled by those versed in politics; thus, a small group of people in power can have a detrimental influence on the eating habits of an entire country

Without the FDA and USDA (and their special interests), companies would have to compete in the marketplace for ensuring safe products for their customers

Cheese fried in coconut oil is not bad for you; it’s actually beneficial!

Check out the fat experts from fathead:
http://www.fathead-movie.com/index.php/meet-the-experts/

Most vegetable oils are not healthy for humans

Since fats are delicious, it’s not hard to convince kids to eat them :)

Unfortunately, there’s a lot of bad science out there, and bad reporting on it; confirmation bias is prevalent

Passing laws doesn’t educate people; coercive, one-size-fits-all edicts don’t support self-responbility and respect individual choices

Check out Tom’s blog on his film’s site: http://fathead-movie.com

5 most overrated health-food trends
http://www.chicagotribune.com/health/ct-overrated-food-trends-pg,0,6975867.photogallery

It’s always better to eat the whole fruit than to drink the juice (which is concentrated carbs)

Saturated fat is not bad

For some odd reason, the myth of bad saturated fat persists in the minds of many so-called nutrition experts

These experts know what they’re talking about regarding fat and cholesterol…
http://www.fathead-movie.com/index.php/meet-the-experts/

Vegetable oils are to be mostly avoided (except for olive oil)

The CSPI (Center for Science in the Public Interest) has contributed to lots of nutritional misinformation

Fish oil is better than flaxseed oil for omega 3s

Different carbs all get converted into sugar, which requires insulin, which enables fat accumulation and fat storage

12 Tasty Substitutions When Cutting Carbs
http://www.menshealth.com/mhlists/cut_carbs/

Grain-based carbs are to be eaten only in moderation

Pasta will make you fat, on account of the carb/insulin factor

Happy 2010!

Happy Festivus: Top 10 Festivus Foods for your Festivus Party! http://blogs.miaminewtimes.com/shortorder/2009/12/happy_festivus_top_10_festivus.php

2010 New Year’s Resolutions According to Women (Infographic) http://topcultured.com/womens-2010-new-years-resolutions-infrographic/

Your ultimate goal is happiness, and achieving a healthy mind/fit body is part of that process

It’s important to set concrete and specific goals

Delving into your emotional world is key to resolving self-conficlt and taking responsibility for your own well-being and happiness

A healthy sex life is an important reflection of your own self-esteem and feelings, as well as respect and admiration, for another person

If everyone had a healthy mind and fit body, the world would be a much better place!

Did Americans get any healthier over past decade? http://news.aol.com/article/did-americans-get-any-healthier-over/836823?cid=14

It’s amazing how much vital knowledge of health and nutrition doesn’t get into the mainstream

Central planning “authorities” oftentimes don’t have your best interests in mind; in fact, they are partially responsible for widespread obesity

Challenging rather than merely accepting what “experts” say is key to your well-being; and, it can reflect a higher level of self-esteem

Check out http://www.fathead-movie.com/ We’ll be interviewing its creator Tom this month!

Be objective by taking into account all the available evidence about health and nutrition, and beware Nanny State tactics!

Show notes

(duration 17:48)

Kevin’s fast food nation experiences while driving to San Fran…
http://healthymindfitbody.com/2009/12/24/fast-food-nation/

Discussion of recent comments on our last podcast…
http://healthymindfitbody.com/2009/12/18/14-living-low-carb-with-guest-amy-dungan/

Thanks again, Angie, for your valuable input about healthy eating challenges in relation to others!

The “tall poppy syndrome” definitely needs to be countered

Self-assertiveness and courage can enable emotional understanding and empathy with others

The topic of eating is pretty much unavoidable

Individuation and self-esteem can help you deal with those in your social circles

How you treat your body is how you treat your emotions (and vice versa)

The first step to recovery is self-acceptance

itunes_podcast_icon — 14 – Living Low Carb with Guest Amy Dungan Dec 18, 2009
Show notes

(duration 22:18)

Amy Dungan joined us from http://healthylowcarbliving.com

The insulin factor in fat gain and fat storage is often overlooked

To prevent “yo-yo” dieting, it’s important make permanent changes to your eating lifestyle

Explore important facts and common myths
http://healthylowcarbliving.com/myths/

Given that our culture is inundated with carbs, a “low-carb” diet is actually just lower carbs

Low fat/high carb diets foster hunger pains and more carb cravings

There is no real need to eat a certain amount of carbs, but your body will definitely malfunction without fat and protein

Aside from the insulin factor, gluconeogenesis explains a lot about the metabolic advantage from a low-carb diet

Make sure to eat quality foods; they may be more expensive, but you’ll save physically and medically in the long run!

Focus on measuring your bodyfat percentage on occasion, rather than stepping on the weight scale every day!

Per unit volume, muscle is more dense than fat and weighs more

You can be motived while you lose weight by keeping your vision of your future self in mind (generating a new self-image and self-concept), as well as by getting positive feedback from people in your social circle

Our culture of eating not-so-good foods can pose challenges to not succumb to negative peer pressure

Eating a lower carb diet will boost your immune system–and improve your blood readings–by reducing your insulin secretion

Very educational documentary film about food and eating:
http://fathead-movie.com/

The medical establishment and nutrition industry can only deny the errors of their ways for so long…

itunes_podcast_icon — 13 – Weight loss plateaus, metabolism and calorie myths Dec 11, 2009

Stay healthy during ‘the cold and flu season’!

Top 12 Foods for Healthy Immune Response by Joseph Mercola
http://www.lewrockwell.com/orig5/mercola20.1.html

Can’t lose weight? Don’t blame your metabolism! by Dr. Susan Roberts
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-1226258/Cant-lose-weight-Dont-blame-metabolism.html

To those with excess bodyfat, skinny persons may seem to have a faster metabolism (though maybe not)

Beware the tactical nuclear penguin ;) http://www.asylum.co.uk/2009/11/27/worlds-strongest-beer-and-its-competitiors/

Everyone deserves to be their ideal weight and live the good life

Calculating your daily caloric intake really misses the point, because it’s more about types of macronutrients and eating quality food

“A calorie is a calorie” violates the second law of thermodynamics by Richard D Feinman and Eugene J Fine
http://www.nutritionj.com/content/3/1/9

If you hit a weight loss plateau, it’s important to be keenly aware of what you’re eating; drink lots of water and get proper nutrients and vitamins and minerals

The Atkins’ induction phase (consuming less than 20 grams of carbs/day) can move you off a frustrating fat-retaining plateau

Just because you may have a slower metabolism, doesn’t mean that fat loss is out of your control!

Again, you don’t need to count calories; just be aware of what you’re eating

Fats are the best source of energy, and they are satiating

Lots of high carb foods generally should be avoided, as they will just lead to fat accumulation

Paleolithic humans had a dramatically different food situation, weren’t aware of “calories,” and yet were fit and healthy
Paleo in a Nutshell Part 1: Food – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uCFZoqmKf5M

Self-acceptance is key, as is awareness of and resolving your inner conflicts

itunes_podcast_icon — 12 – Breakfast for champions of fat loss Dec 03, 2009
Show notes

(duration 18:44)

Darker honeys tend to have more antioxidants (and minerals), e.g., wildflower or better yet buckwheat honey

Frozen veggies and frozen berries are always good choices (thaw in microwave)

Make sure to get the plain (unsweetened!) whole yogurt, which you can sweeten (if need be) with whey protein power, berries, or stevia

Ten Worst Breakfast Cereals by Joseph Mercola
http://www.lewrockwell.com/orig5/mercola15.1.html

Breakfast is a necessary component to effective weight loss, but that doesn’t mean cereal is good for you

Breakfast Skippers Beware. You Could Be Increasing Abdominal Fat Storage. by Paramjit Sidhu
http://correct-weight-loss.net/2009/07/06/breakfast-skippers-beware-you-could-be-sabotaging-your-weight-loss-efforts/

Various nut butters, such as almond butter, are good sources of energy

Juicing veggies is another great way to obtain vital nutrients

Eggs (preferably Omega 3 enhanced), containing fat and protein, go well with veggies and meats (yet watch out for sodium nitrite/nitrate in bacon, ham, and sausages)

Try to avoid grains, breads, and cereals (pancakes and waffles with syrup are hormonal disasters!)

Scientists claim junk food is as addictive as heroin
http://www.grist.org/article/scientists-claim-junk-food-is-as-addictive-as-heroin/

The more junk food you eat, the more you’ll find yourself having to exercise

Rodents are really a poor model to understand human psychology and even physiology

Lots of carbs coupled with lots of fat is a double metabolic wammy!

“Addiction” label can easily turn into self-fulfilling prophecy

Self-responsibility is key to taking charge of your own healthy and fitness

The 30 Worst Fast Food Restaurant Choices
http://features.fitnessmagazine.com/30WorstFastFoodRestaurantChoices.html

Beware big buns, which equate to excess carbs and thus fat storage

Look for fresh veggies, rather than deep fried madness (which can be loaded with free radicals)

If you need to do damage control for a bad meal, make sure you supplement with anti-oxidents

Beware a high carb to protein ratio (aim for 1 to 1)

Use nuts to obtain your good fat and energy and look for healthy salads with adequate protein

Nutrition protein bars will do in a bind much better than most fast food

Diet Pills Show Weight-Loss Promise by Brian Rooney and Bonnie Mclean
http://abcnews.go.com/Nightline/diet-pills-show-weight-loss-promise/story?id=9068287

Introspection is key to understanding your feelings related to cravings and eating habits

Acting like you’re possessed by an eating demon or like you’re a rapacious zombie is a sign of emotional self-estrangement and a lack of self-responsibility

Diet drugs are band-aides that don’t deal with the root cause of bad eating habits and mental states

Nutritional misinformation and oftentimes disinformation by the so-called experts keep people unhealthy

Dealing with psychological processes rather than “disease states” is most helpful for weight loss and health and fitness issues

Engaging in preventative maintenance is far better than doing damage control at the doctor’s office

No “magic pill” can substitute for psychological insight and self-reliance

itunes_podcast_icon — 9 – Portion control, protein requirements, physical activity Nov 10, 2009
Show notes

(duration 17:23)

What are some of your challenges with fitness and getting down to the right weight?

Unfortunately, in most restaurants the macronutrient portions are skewed in favor of bread and cereal carbs

For other animals, a lot of their time is spent eating and digesting what’s been eaten

Get adequate protein, enough fat for energy, and round out the balance with veggies and some fruits

Eating lots of carbs creates a desire to eat more carbs, leading to increased body fat percentage

Snacking with fatty food, like nuts, is a good way to prevent overindulging

Portion control is about self-regulation; mindfulness is key, as is the eyeball method

Calculate your daily protein requirement based on your lean body mass (weight minus your body fat); though it depends on your activity level, typically a gram of protein per kilogram of body weight (up to a gram per pound of body weight when doing lots of weight training)

You don’t have to run in order to lose weight! There are many forms of healthy exercise–and mp3 players to break the monotony

To obtain and maintain a healthy body weight, mainly focus on proper nutrition
