Episode 140: Reverse Dieting 101 w/ Coach Raisa! Nov 15, 2022

Show notes

One of the most frequent questions we receive at DLDNation is, "what is a reverse diet?" Our society and culture has conditioned us to always be in a traditional "diet" and cutting calories to lose weight.

Chronic dieting for months and even years can lead to a concept called metabolic adaptation aka your body gets used to those lower calories. A host of negative side effects can come from metabolic adaptation and along with stalling weight loss, fatigue and decreased hormonal health can set in. How do we solve this?

This is where reverse dieting comes in! I have with me DLDNation Coach Raisa on the show to discuss what a reverse diet is, results we've seen with clients who go through a reverse, what the process looks like, and so much more!
