#89. The 80 / 20 Method for Sustainable Health & Weight Loss Mar 22, 2021

Show notes

This episode covers the 80/20 Method; one of the major principles I personally follow and talk about in my REVAMP Ebook for a sustainable plantbased way of living. The beauty of the 80/20 approach is that it isn't a "diet" as you aren't restricting anything or cutting out complete food groups, which results in an effective and sustainable way of eating that supports health and weight loss.

Originations of the 80 / 20 "Diet" What Makes Up the 80% What Makes Up the 20% Whole grains, whole foods, alcohol, fats and carbs. Benefits of the 80 / 20 Method Applying the 80/20 method to your life - how to look at it daily and weekly. Tips to start using it in your daily routine.

Question from IG. I am iron deficient, how can I correct through a plantbased diet?

Show notes

This episode is a Supplement Spotlight on a supplement we are all familiar with - probiotics. I break down what probiotics are and why we need them, as well as going in depth on the important questions like: Is there evidence to support probiotics work? Can they survive in our gut if they even make it that far? Is it just a trend that doesn't live up the hype? Have they been shown to help any health conditions? What type should you be taking if any? Can you get probiotics from foods? I share my personally stance on probiotics, takeaways and - of course - which plantbased foods have probiotics already in them.
