Personalized Nutrition Plans: The Importance of Understanding Macros and Micros with Caroline O’Connor, RD: Episode Rerun Mar 21, 2024

In today's episode with Caroline O’Connor, you’ll hear us take a deep dive on:
1. Macronutrients: comprising proteins, carbohydrates, and fats, macronutrients are fundamental food groups essential for creating balanced meals, not just for bodybuilders or fitness enthusiasts, but often misunderstood or overlooked in healthy eating discussions.
2. Balanced eating: It’s all about comfortably navigating the gray area between strict rules and indulgence, such as opting for a combination of favored carbs and vegetables for a satisfying, balanced plate, rather than strictly adhering to low-carb or low-fat options, which should be viewed as tools for balance rather than a lifestyle.
3. Micronutrients: Micronutrients, comprising minerals, vitamins, antioxidants, etc., indicate the non-caloric benefits food provides to our bodies, beyond energy and satiety.
4. The importance of personalized nutrition plans. There is no one-size-fits-all diet. When making dietary changes and recommendations, it is so important to fill in all the blanks on a person’s lifestyle, health conditions, measurements, and their existing diet before even considering what needs changing.
Caroline O’Connor is a Registered Dietitian and Personal Trainer who helps clients develop habits to support a healthy, sustainable lifestyle.

Personalized Nutrition Plans: The Importance of Understanding Macros and Micros with Caroline O’Connor, RD Jun 19, 2023

Caroline O’Connor is a Registered Dietitian and Personal Trainer who helps clients develop habits to support a healthy, sustainable lifestyle.
In today's episode with Caroline O’Connor, you’ll hear us take a deep dive on:
1. Macronutrients: comprising proteins, carbohydrates, and fats, macronutrients are fundamental food groups essential for creating balanced meals, not just for bodybuilders or fitness enthusiasts, but often misunderstood or overlooked in healthy eating discussions.
2. Balanced eating: It’s all about comfortably navigating the gray area between strict rules and indulgence, such as opting for a combination of favored carbs and vegetables for a satisfying, balanced plate, rather than strictly adhering to low-carb or low-fat options, which should be viewed as tools for balance rather than a lifestyle.
3. Micronutrients: Micronutrients, comprising minerals, vitamins, antioxidants, etc., indicate the non-caloric benefits food provides to our bodies, beyond energy and satiety.
4. The importance of personalized nutrition plans. There is no one-size-fits-all diet. When making dietary changes and recommendations, it is so important to fill in all the blanks on a person’s lifestyle, health conditions, measurements, and their existing diet before even considering what needs changing.

In today's episode with Dr. Colleen Cutcliffe, you’ll hear us take a deep dive on:

2. The recent discovery of the keystone probiotic strain Akkermansia, which resides in the gut lining, and its crucial role in preventing gut lining deterioration.
3. Akkermansia’s benefits, including producing proteins that stimulate GLP-1, a hormone involved in regulating insulin and glucose response to prevent high glucose spikes and promote weight loss.

Harnessing Your Hormonal Potential for Optimal Metabolic Health with Dr. Carrie Jones Jun 01, 2023

Dr. Carrie Jones, a respected naturopathic physician, holds key positions at NuEthix Formulations and Metabolic Mentor University. With over 17 years of expertise in functional and integrative medicine, she is a renowned specialist in naturopathic endocrinology, holding board certification in the field.
Dr. Carrie has held prominent roles as a medical director in leading integrative clinics in Portland, Oregon, and served as the medical director for Precision Analytical, the creator of the renowned Dutch test, for nearly a decade.
She was also previously Head of Medical Education at Rupa Health and continues to co-host The Root Cause Medicine Podcast.
In this episode, Dr. Carrie Jones discusses:
What is metabolic health?
Metabolic health affects everything from blood sugar levels to energy production and cellular activity. Hormones take the stage, regulating energy creation, utilization, storage, and distribution. Neglecting metabolic health puts these processes at risk, increasing the likelihood of chronic diseases like diabetes. 😔
But here's the plot twist: metabolic health isn't just about diabetes! It's linked to other conditions like cardiovascular disease and Alzheimer's. Recent studies have uncovered a connection between metabolic health and Alzheimer's development, suggesting a contributing role. To safeguard your well-being, prioritize a healthy metabolic and endocrine system.
What are the symptoms of metabolic disease?
Many of the symptoms you may encounter can be linked to underlying metabolic health issues. It's not uncommon to feel tired, notice puffiness or swelling, and even experience pain. Changes in appetite can also occur, ranging from a diminished hunger to an insatiable craving for food. Additionally, headaches and skin problems may arise, affecting your skin's natural cycle. For men, metabolic health can contribute to challenges with libido, including erectile dysfunction. Women may face issues such as cramps, premenstrual symptoms, irregular menstrual cycles, and fertility challenges.
Unfortunately, it's often the case that when these symptoms persist over time, we attribute them to aging or the natural demands of life, such as raising a family or managing a full-time job. We tend to accept these experiences as part of the norm, when in reality, we should be striving for optimal well-being and vitality. It is my sincere belief that you deserve to live your life to the fullest. 💪
