So you’re living a Paleo Lifestyle and have experienced some great improvements in your health but you still know things could be better? Get ready because today’s show is for you. Our guest was no stranger to a myriad of common symptoms that many of us know a little too well including painful bloating, mild depression, caffeine dependency chronic fatigue and nagging injuries. We know that the solution always starts with food, but as it turned out that was only half the solution. Inspired by the huge improvement in the way he felt eating in line with the Auto Immune Protocol Christopher developed a voracious appetite for research and was empowered learning that contrary to what many doctors told him, genetics were not the only underlying root cause to his health concerns, and that the answers were really out there waiting to be discovered. Through management of diet, rest, exercise, stress reduction and supplementation Christopher has successfully achieved a new optimal level of health and fitness and was able to solve his health problems. Here today to help us learn more and benefit from his hard work, experience and research is Christopher Kelly from Nourish, Balance Thrive.

Skip the diet, just eat healthy- we like the sound of that! Today we are chatting to Paleo-enthusiast, Irena Macri, who is renowned for her popular Paleo blog, Eat Drink Paleo. Irena embraced the Paleo lifestyle a few years ago when she watched her mum, a seemingly healthy and active woman, go through two cancers. Irena became more aware of her own health, attempted various trends and discovered Paleo in late 2011. Through her own research Irena realised Paleo is not a diet in the way we think of diet, but a lifestyle philosophy. Besides switching to a Paleo way of eating, Irena also left her stressful job, became more active, and decided to improve her sleep. As a result she feels much happier and healthier, and has lots of energy throughout the day. Currently based in London Irena brings a youthful, fresh & accessible 80/20 approach on her quest for great health and great tasting food and will bring out her first cookbook, originally self-published, on the 28th of January, with a second Paleo cookbook due later in 2015.

This week we are thrilled to have our good mate Jen from Rumbles Paleo here to talk about her very exciting project which she will share more about shortly. Most of us know Jen as one part of the Rumbles crew- the amazing peeps that make delectable paleo treats that are totally drool worthy as well as good for you but that’s not all that this busy lady has been up to! Jen is on a mission is to create a world-wide epidemic of conscious minded children who live in a realm of their higher-actualised selves and who take over the universe and transform it into a wonderland of love, light and spectacularity! Wow- here to tell us more is the beautiful Jen, welcome back! The post TPS 94: Bumi And Friends With Jen Richards Of Rumbles Paleo appeared first on The Wellness Couch.

Today we are talking to Ben Dutton from The Stock Merchant and they are responsible for Australia’s first range of free range and sustainable stocks and sauces. Ben’s company work with local small-scale producers who provide him with free range chicken, grass fed cattle, sustainably harvested shellfish and pristine vegetables and herbs to use in their products. Ben’s stocks and sauces are made the traditional way – meaning no nasties because he doesn’t add salt, flavour enhancers, gluten, preservatives or additives. It’s real food made from real ingredients and we think that’s something worth having a chat about so welcome to the show Ben Dutton from The Stock Merchant.

One of my favourite quotes that really helped to put the power of food into perspective comes from Ann Wigmore who said, “The food you eat can be either the safest and most powerful form of medicine or the slowest form of poison.” This was an exciting realisation for me because it taught me that I have a choice in influencing my health. Today’s guest has extensive knowledge about the best kinds of foods for us to eat. We first spoke to her a while back about her book The Paleo Approach and she is back today to chat about The Paleo Approach Cookbook which she has written to show us just how easy and delicious regaining your health can be. Welcome back to the show author and our favourite Paleo Mom, Sarah Ballantyne.

Grass hoppers, locusts, meal worms, bamboo worms and crickets- what do they all have in common? Not only do they have amazing nutritional value being a great source of protein and micronutrients, these insects are widely available and low cost- financially and on the environment. In food insecure locations, edible bugs can all play a major role in preventing malnutrition in children and pregnant women. Today we are lucky enough to be speaking with Mariangela and Rudi from Bugs for life, about their planned work in Benin, West Africa where they will be involved with social and scientific research which will centre on finding out more about the variety of insects eaten, their role in local diets and their cultural importance. To share with us about the project we would like to welcome to the show Mariangela and Rudi.

This week we are coming to you LIVE (well kind of) from Primal Collective Cave Camp QLD. We roped in fellow Cave Campers and good mates Mark and Leah Follett who you might remember from our Cave Camp Adelaide episode to talk to us about their inspiring Paleo lifestyle journey and the changes they have made to improve the health of their family and even their friends. We also answer and discuss questions from our Campers about how to make the Paleo lifestyle even more easy and accessible. So strap yourselves in and get ready for loads of laughs and buckets of fun from Primal Collective Cave Camp QLD!

We hope that you’re ready for a show of epic proportions today. I’m very excited because we get to highlight what I think is one of the most important facets of the Paleo lifestyle. I know that most of us are across the fact that Paleo is more than just nutrition it’s about thinking, moving and eating like we were designed too BUT for me the key to bringing this all together and being successful is tribe. While we are lucky enough to have access to almost endless resources we can never discount the value of being a part of a likeminded community. Soooo not content on doing things by halves we thought we’d like to have a crack at staging our very own Paleo Circus, roll up roll up because we are joined today by reps from 5 different Paleo groups right across Australia.

This week’s guest has a very clear and direct message and she needs your help to tell the Heart Foundation to stop giving advice and promoting food that cause heart disease. Many of you may have seen posts about the Heart Foundation petition on Facebook or via your social media, you might have even seen people holding signs with funny hash tags on them and Chef Pete Evans is even publicly backing the petition, so what’s it all about? Let’s open up the discussion in order to understand more about the importance of this message.

Today’s guest is on a mission to empower people to take full responsibility for their own health and enjoyment of life by investigating, discussing, and critically rethinking everything we’ve assumed to be true about health and wellness. He believes that the single greatest investment you can make is in yourself. He is the author of one of our favourite Primal go to books- The Primal Blueprint, provides bucket loads of information and motivation via his blog Marks Daily Apple and keeps us thinking by facilitating great content and discussion on his podcast the Primal Blueprint. We are super thrilled to have him on the show today to discuss his next big project which we are busting to know more about- Welcome to the show the man who teaches us to be motivated by enjoyment Mark Sisson.

Primal Collective are powered by 1000 years of history and backed by modern science and they are putting traditional foods back into Australian homes. We’re super excited to be chatting to our major sponsor for Primal Collective Cave Camp and not just because of all their delicious kitchen goodies!

This weeks show is for anyone that has ever avoided doing something because they think it’s just too hard or too big to tackle. We often talk about the power of perception and the role our mind plays in what we can achieve so we’re aiming to really break down the steps to success into chunk size pieces that we are all capable of doing. This weeks guest most of you actually know quite well. He is not only someone that Steve and I look to as source of inspiration and great knowledge but he works hard and plays hard as well – welcome to the show our very own barefooted caveman Dr Brett Hill.

We love a good mission statement because we think that understanding the principles and the motivation behind your actions is so powerful. Today’s guest is actively getting people excited about sustainable living and when we think about the massive consumption and use of resources that goes in to modern agriculture it makes sense that we should be taking a close look at not only what we are eating but how it arrives onto our dinner plate. Pat works for Chapul which is a company with a simple goal – to build a more sustainable future by introducing incredibly efficient insect protein in a delicious, organic product..their tasty Chapul bars. They believe passionately in sustainable use of our precious water resources and how’s this for a statistic, agriculture absorbs 92% of all freshwater consumed globally. At Chapul they believe that change starts with what we eat, and it starts with all of us. Pat subscribes to the view that our actions today can positively impact the lives of tomorrow and I for one certainly want to find out more about the role that we can all play in this so lets get stuck in and welcome to the show Pat Crowley from Chapul Cricket Bars.

Preparing for today’s show I found myself reflecting about pre-paleo Steve and Sarah compared to current Steve and Sarah. Anyone that knows us will tell you how much we love our food and how we delight in getting stuck into the latest flavour sensation and I know that Dr Brett is a big foodie also. I’d like to share a bit of a flash back which shows a pretty dramatic shift in our thinking and our idea of treating ourselves. A while ago a trip to the movies would’ve consisted of generally some kind of sugary, chocolatey treat which we probably would’ve demolished during the previews and then been left wanting more, however fast forward to now and a night at the movies consists of something more along the lines of a bag of organic coconut crunch which is this amazing air dried toasted flakes of coconut which keeps us going strong until the end credits as well as satisfying the urge for something juicy delicious and crunchy. So while some people might think we are a little bit wacky I actually delight in realising how far we’ve come. Today’s guest therefore is very welcome because she plays a huge role in ensuring that our favourite Paleo movie snack as well as beautiful quality organic coconut oil which we would also be lost without, is available for us all to enjoy.

Anthea is a Naturopath & Herbalist, Organic Food Health & Lifestyle Educator, Owner of Ovvio Retail Store & Organic Tea and Author of I am food. Which is her brilliant new book based around eating for health. Anthia has exhaustive knowledge and experience working in the wellness industry and has spent the last 20 years consulting as a Naturopath. Originally inspired by a faded nutritional manual on her parent’s shelf when she was 12, she embarked on a lifetime of research and learning which we are excited to be able to share with you today.

This weeks guest has a great story that she has taken and used to write a book specifically targeted at teen girls BUT If you’re not a teen girl, stay with us because the information she is going to share today applies to all of us. Leslie blasts through common diet nonsense and sets the record straight with great matter of fact advice on how to be your absolute best version of you without struggling for it.

Here at That Paleo Show we love a good strong statement and we don’t think it gets much better than our guests philosophy- Get to the root. Learn the tools. Live the solution. Dr Amy Myers wears many hats including Teacher, Physician and Author of The Autoimmune Solution: A Revolutionary Plan to Prevent and Reverse the Full Spectrum of Symptoms and Diseases due for release January 2015 . Helping people is Dr Amy’s passion and today we look forward to discussing how she found what she believes to be the best way to heal people. Like us Dr Amy believes that health shouldn’t be viewed as a cookie cutter solution and instead practices Functional medicine with the view that each of us is unique in our genetic makeup and physiology. She advocates that what ultimately causes illness in one person is not the same for another, and treatment for each will therefore be different. This sounds like a brilliant basis for some wonderful discussion so lets get stuck into it, welcome to the show Dr Amy Myers.

This week’s guest was originally on the show way back in episode 32. He is the Coaching Director and owner of FUNC fitness in Canberra and is passionate about enabling others to develop their awareness of Functional Fitness. He is all about movement first and exercise second. With a strong background in various disciplines including mixed martial arts and strength training, he certainly is qualified to talk to us about moving efficiently. Now most of you know Sarah likes to do some research before each show and she got very excited stalking Dave on the internet because firstly she came across some very impressive kick boxing footage which was then backed up with a video of a pretty solid Crossfit workout. Anyone that knows Sarah will tell you that martial arts and throwing weights around are a few of her favourite things. So regardless of the kind of movement you enjoy today’s show is sure to be a corker full of great tips and content to help you make the most of your daily exercise.

This weeks guest is a great mate of That Paleo Show and actually provided the inspiration for Steph, Janah and Brett to start this podcast over 1 year ago when he visited Australia. His passion and enthusiasm for helping others so that they may discover a better quality of life through lifestyle and nutrition is evident to anybody who has read his blog, listened to his podcast or read any of his books.   Here to discuss his upcoming book Keto Clarity, the man with the biggest heart in the business, Jimmy Moore!

Recently we had Jo Whitton from Quirky cooking join us and she spoke all about how she uses her thermomix to make healthy Paleo Cooking really simple. You guys went absolutely nuts for it-so because we got such a huge response and because we love it when you’re happy aaaaand also a little bit because Dr Brett is still mastering the art of using his, we thought we’d bring another Paleo Thermomix Genius into….. wait for it- the mix- see what I did there?!  Today’s guest is a Nurse, A Thermomix consultant and fitness fanatic who follows a Paleo style diet with lots of raw foods! Like all of us she loves food and loves learning new ways to prepare it. We are pumped and hoping that if we ask her very nicely that Emily will share her top tips and tricks for making Paleo Food prep easier. Not only does she know her way around the kitchen but she’s also picked up plenty of knowledge about what people like to eat. When she’s not busy sharing recipes, ideas, lifestyle hints and food recommendations, she can be found working at Paleo Café on the Mornington Peninsula in Melbourne. It is our pleasure to extend a big warm welcome to Emily Coupar from Paleo Thermie.

A few weeks ago we had some very exciting news confirmed and immediately put a gag order on Dr Brett who we all know struggles with keeping secrets at the best of times. So not only do we have a mega amazing awesome special announcement to reveal today but we also have two of our very favourite giggly guests back to share in the fun- and you’ll see how this all fits together really shortly. Since we last spoke Carla and Emma have been flat out cranking it busy spreading their unique brand of merriment throughout the world. Rarely a day goes by that I don’t crack a smile or drool over their Instagram piccies and more recently they have launched a brand spanky new website full of great health tips and delicious fresh Paleo food but it doesn’t stop there, they’ve also been busy writing new e-books and inspiring us all with bucket loads of awesome blog posts and quirky entries on their social media feeds. They literally are a media sensation featuring in newspaper and magazine articles promoting the Paleo lifestyle in their own truly unique way. Well it’s ridiculously cold in Adelaide and I’m ready for some sunshine so welcome to the show Merrymaker Sisters Emma and Carla.

This week we’re without our adjective popping queen Sarah Stewart, – she’s off educating young adults in the skills they need to gain long term employment BUT let me tell you, this week Dr Brett and I have an absolute cracker for you. Today’s guest is a respected neurosurgeon and CEO of Optimized Life, a health and wellness company dedicated to helping patients avoid the health care burdens we typically encounter as we age. He is a member of the American Association of Neurological Surgeons, the Congress of Neurologic Surgeons, and Age Management Medicine Group. And our guest today has also been through his own health battles with being overweight and as you’ll hear today, what he chose to do about it launched him onto an epic journey to discover and pioneer some of the most potent weight loss and wellness increasing techniques around today. All of his work is focussed towards giving you back control of your health, giving you every chance to age gracefully and unlocking the tools you need to further enhance your own health and wellness journey.

We’re so to have this particular guest on the show this week, she is a permanent fixture on our personal Facebook and Instagram feeds and comes up with amazing and wonderful scrumptious ideas that keep cooking interesting, easy and fun and I’m not the only one who thinks so! Whenever “Quirky Cooking” comes up in conversations, usually the response goes something along the lines of, “oh is that the lady that cooks fancy Paleo Stuff in her Thermomix?” While the answer to this is of course yes, Jo Whitton is so much more than the lady that cooks stuff in her Thermomix. She is an inspiration to thousands of people on a daily basis and proof that healthy eating doesn’t have to be boring. Through her blog and social media and more recently her very own cookbook, Jo shares her message that food intolerances and allergies don’t have to make life difficult. Hopefully after today’s show Brett, Steve and Sarah will all have mastered the art of using our newly acquired Thermomix’s to their full capacity BUT more importantly, even more people will know that ‘Quirky Cooking’ is not only the lady that cooks and creates great healthy recipes but also the lady responsible for opening people’s eyes to the possibility of wholesome food that tastes wonderful, is easy and fun to make, and meets the needs of those with diet challenges. So if you have a family of fussy eaters, know or cook for anyone with food allergies or are just after some good old healthy foodspiration and tips to make your life in the kitchen easier, get set as we welcome to the show Quirky Cookings Jo Whitton.

We all know them, we’ve seen them, we’ve heard them- heck we might even have been one ourselves. You know when you discover something so great you’ll simply burst if you can’t get it out to the world? So what do we do when we have an important and life changing message to share? Well this week we are talking to the makers of the feature documentary, “We Love Paleo”. Caroleen is a dedicated and passionate film professional, ready to do whatever it takes to make this crowd funded documentary and get it out to as many people as possible so that this film can spread the Paleo message and raise public awareness about this way of living. We Love Paleo, examines the Paleo lifestyle and reveals what it means to be Paleo in a mainstream world. It takes us on a close up, challenging but rewarding journey of people as they undergo the transformation from their new way of life and become passionate about promoting Paleo to others.   Links to the good stuff.

This weeks guest has an amazing and diverse career. He is scientist with a PhD in physics, as well as being an Astrophysicist, turned Internet entrepreneur and executive, turned strategy consultant and economist. His wife is a molecular biologist and cancer researcher, can you imagine the dinner conversations?    More recently they have been investigating the influence of diet upon health. After adopting a low-carb diet in 2005, they immediately noticed their energy, vitality, and sense of well-being improve significantly. Since then they have spent a number of years refining their nutrition, and have successfully healed their own “middle-age” and chronic health problems through diet. Naturally throughout this process they have learned a great deal about the benefits – and pitfalls – of these diets and have documented this wisdom in their book “Perfect Health Diet” This book is an amazing read and really helps to connect the void between the broad based intuitive primal approach to health and the scientific facts.   Links to the good stuff: https://www.facebook.com/perfecthealthdiet?fref=ts http://perfecthealthdiet.com/ https://twitter.com/pauljaminet The post TPS 72: Paul Jaminet – The Perfect Health Diet appeared first on The Wellness Couch.

This week you’re in for twice the fun as we chat to a powerhouse duo that have combined their powers of sass and Paleo cooking to create one of the most exciting and passionate cookbooks around. We had such a great time chatting with our favourite Civilized Caveman last time that we’ve brought him back but with the added bonus of a special addition to join in the fun. Both of today’s guests are amazing Paleo foodies and a total crack up. We got to meet George and hear his phenomenal story a few months back which left us all feeling super inspired and we guarantee he’s got plenty more awesome left in the tank. Today we also get to meet Juli, the creator of paleOMG, a ridiculously great blog that you should all get across pronto. The frank and insightful way she writes and conveys her healthy message is entertaining and super duper motivating. You can be guaranteed that her posts always come with a generous side of ‘get real banana peel’ and leave you feeling pretty damn chuffed to be alive. With both of our guests oozing so much passion and positive energy for their love of food, it makes sense that they should team up. Recently George and Juli have been busting a sweat in the kitchen writing a brand spanking new cookbook, “The Paleo Kitchen – Finding Primal Joy in Modern Cooking”.

This week the Crew from That Paleo Show are recording LIVE from Cave Camp Adelaide! Our first live event and boy was it a ripper. We had so much fun sharing education, inspiration and transformation with our campers that we thought it would be remiss of us to leave you out of the loop. In this episode we answer some of our campers questions live on air and find out the number one things our campers have learnt that they think will be of benefit to you too. We also have a guest appearance from two of our favourite cave peeps and former co-hosts Steph and Janah AND a very exciting special announcement at the end! So tune in for the fun and frivolity of That Paleo Show LIVE from Cave Camp Adelaide! The post TPS 70: Live from Cave Camp Adelaide appeared first on The Wellness Couch.

We’re doing something a bit different on this weeks show- pretty much because we can but more so because we think you, our beautiful listeners, will find it really handy, so get your pen and paper ready. Today’s guest is fun, quirky and knowledgeable and in 2011, he decided it was time to spread the word that healthy living is incredibly easy, and absolutely enjoyable; Nice Life, and making health fun, was born. He is a wellness researcher and journalist and has worked in the health and wellness industry for nearly 10 years. Working with some of the best Naturopaths in Australia and other health personalities like David Wolfe, Kale has developed a well-rounded and practical healing approach which has seen hundreds of people achieve abundant health! He has recently released an e-book called Fermented Foods; The Art of Pro-Biotic Nutrition and this is what we are hoping to capitalise on today. The post TPS 69: Kale Brock – Fermented Foods Made Easy appeared first on The Wellness Couch.

Like many doctors, this weeks guest focused on treating her patients’ conditions with drugs or surgical procedures. However, this all changed after being diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2000 which turned out to be the catalyst for a huge shake up. We know that many of our listeners at home first discovered Paleo through experiencing a health crisis and can personally relate to the need for urgency when it comes to examining and improving our health practices. Within three years of her diagnosis, Dr Wahls was in a bad way, her back and stomach muscles had weakened to the point where she needed a wheelchair and conventional medical treatments were failing her. Rather than accept her rapidly deteriorating state of health Dr. Wahls began studying the latest research on autoimmune disease and brain biology, and started to use food as medicine opting to get her vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and essential fatty acids from the food she ate rather than pills and supplements. Dr. Wahls adopted the nutrient-rich paleo diet, and used this as the base to develop her own approach to healing chronic auto-immune conditions. She has gone on to be an internet sensation via her TED talk which went viral, and she is also a successful published author with the recent release of her book The Wahls Protocol- how to beat progressive MS using Paleo Principles and Functional Medicine.

This week we finally get to interview one of the most highly anticipated guests we’ve ever had on the show. Our amazing audience generated a huge buzz when we posted to social media asking what they wanted to find out about when they heard who we were interviewing and I will admit that Brett, Steve and I might have all been a little bit excited in the lead up to today’s episode as well! Today’s guest is an inspiration, motivator and an agent for positive change in food education. He has exploded onto the Paleo scene with a sincere passion and integrity for what he does. He has just released his eighth cookbook “Healthy Every Day” and is one of Australia’s most loved and popular chefs, he also boasts health coach, media personality and author in his list of credentials and we could probably write a ninth publication for him based on his achievements alone. We are so excited and proud that one of Australia’s own is helping us to reshape the way we think about food and are thrilled about the great work and publicity he is generating for the Paleo way of living. Welcome to the show Pete Evans! The post TPS 67: Pete Evans On Living Healthy Everyday appeared first on The Wellness Couch.

The weeks guest discovered and adopted a new dietary lifestyle modelled after the Paleo diet back in 2010. His motivation for doing this stemmed from a number of factors but was largely due to his desire to get back to his primal roots and become “less domestic”. We know how easy it is to get overwhelmed in the kitchen- not all of us are natural Master Chefs able to whip up a gourmet and paleo friendly feast in a jiffy. What’s really cool about Russ is that on his new found path towards a better way of eating, he discovered a solid theme and that was the tons of delicious, healthy dishes out there, nestled in the pages of history. He discovered that he didn’t need to invent new meals to stay compliant with his diet, but instead could just look back into our past to find dishes that are naturally tasty and nutritious, because they were developed in a time before processed foods. The great news is if he can do it we can do it! The post TPS 66: The Domestic Man – Russ Crandall Chats With Us At His Ancestral Table appeared first on The Wellness Couch.

This weeks guest is a modern day hunter gatherer who runs an evolving website, blog and business born out of her love and passion for health, sustainability, supporting Tasmanian local farmer’s and producers and spreading the word on holistic nutrition.

This week we’re talking with Dr Ronesh Sinha who has worked out a way to bring the benefits of a primal lifestyle to South Asian people to tackle the alarming rates of heart disease, diabetes, obesity and related conditions that he sees, especially from those that emigrate away from their home country. We know that a lot of our listeners work in office environments or encounter more stress than they would like on a daily basis and so there will be lots of crossover I’m sure in our conversation today that will be relevant to all people.   The South Asian Health Solution is the first book to provide an ancestral health-based wellness plan culturally tailored for those of South Asian ancestry living in India, the United States and across the world – a population identified as being at the highest risk for heart disease, diabetes, obesity, and related conditions. Dr. Ronesh Sinha, an internal medicine specialist in California’s Silicon Valley, sees high risk South Asian patients and runs education and wellness programs for corporate clients. He has taken many South Asians out of the high risk, high body mass category and helped them reverse disease risk factors without medications. His comprehensive lifestyle modification approach has been validated by cutting edge medical science and the real-life success stories he profiles throughout the book.

This weeks guest has so much awesome on offer that I don’t want to waste a second of our time with her. To all of our listeners, I know that sometimes getting your head around all of the ins and outs of autoimmune disease can be harder than trying to rummage your way through a Target clearance rack to find a bargain, but today we have got you covered.  Our guest is well and truly qualified to walk us through all of the nitty gritty we can throw at her. Sarah Ballantyne has so many tools in her kit but formally she is a Scientist turned stay-at-home mum, she writes the award winning blog “The Paleo Mom”, is a co-host on The Paleo View podcast and is author of some of the best Paleo Resources available including what we think is the Ulitmate Guide for anyone living with an autoimmune disease. Like many of our guests she is passionate about the impact of nutrition & lifestyle on health, cooking & raising her family. We think she is an all round superstar and we are not alone in this sentiment. Robb Wolf describes her latest book “The Paleo Approach” as a game-changer.    We love Sarah because she embodies our goal of making Paleo something that everyone can understand in a way that allows us to improve our own lives and the lives of our loved ones. As comprehensive and wonderfully detailed as her book is, Sarah ensures that we don’t suffer from information overload and in what I’m sure was actually a truck load of work she manages to explain complex scientific concepts in a way that seems effortless, she makes everything super easy to understand without watering it down. I promise you will actually feel like a bit of a smart cookie when you read her work because she just makes sure you get it! Get ready and get excited to be blasted with all the awesome you can handle as we welcome to the show The Paleo Mom- Sarah Ballantyne.   GO AND GET A COPY OF SARAH BALLANTYNES BRILLIANT BOOKS – “The Paleo Approach” and “The Paleo Approach Cook Book” right now.

I love today’s guest because she is all about the food. I know that in my quest for health I have done just about every ridiculous dietary fad out there- lemon detoxes, calorie restriction, shakes, slimming bars, lotions, potions, pills, the works. The thing about Paleo for me, and I know I’m not alone in this, is that it allowed me to give myself permission to break up with my disastrous relationship with food and to start enjoying it- literally just eat real food and reap the benefits! I know that stacks of our listeners out there can relate to what I went through. One minute we’re told to eat foods low in fat, the next minute salt will kill us and then they make out butter to be the bad guy. One of my true joys has always been eggs so much so that Steve and I joke about creating a cook book dedicated solely to singing the praises of eggs. You can imagine my devastation when I’m told in order to achieve the physique I was aiming for I had to cut out the egg yolks. I’m actually cringing in my chair thinking about the cartons of egg whites I purchased and willingly consumed thinking that I was doing the best thing for myself. Thank God someone is doing something to stop the madness- today’s guest in her latest book “Eat the Yolks” blows this myth out of the water! The amazing and funny Liz Wolfe is a writer and a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner. Liz definitely walks the talk and is an avid hobby farmer with pasture-raised goats, pigs and chickens and an organic garden. I had a bit of a giggle when I found out like me Liz has a bit of a black thumb- there’s hope for me yet! Her passion for real food stems from her very own powerful transformation and through her experience in discovering the power of real food Liz got healthier, cleared acne, resolved skin issues, slept better, and felt better than ever before. Through her books, website and Cave Girl Eats social media she inspires millions of us daily and shows us that by ditching the diet dogma and filling our lives with real, nourishing food we can achieve the same amazing benefits that she has. In her quest to get to the bottom of modern food mythology Liz uncovered all kinds of crazy lies and beliefs that we have been fed. Eat the Yolks is her story and how to guide for discovering Paleo, how to fight these food lies and how to reclaim your health.

This week I have been doing some reflection and I have really been pondering what makes a successful plan to achieve optimal health. A few points really jumped out at me. Firstly there is no singular one size fits all solution. While there may be some basic principles that we can all draw from it’s becoming more and more increasingly obvious that we need to take individual differences like genetics and lifestyle for example into consideration. It gives us goose bumps here at That Paleo Show that it is finally becoming acceptable to look at our uniqueness and through a process of trial and error, honest judgment free discussion and common sense explore various approaches that might best suit us as an individual. So while a less prescribed pathway to health is slowly but surely becoming more talked about and viable, what about the people that don’t know what they are dealing with? Where do they start and what do they do to overcome their feelings of hopelessness and frustration? The great news is that today’s guest has experienced exactly this. She was someone who had always been relatively healthy- maybe carried a few extra kilos but operated pretty well most of the time. It’s amazing how quickly a health crisis can put things into perspective and that’s exactly what we are going to talk about today.

Today we cover the realities and science behind IF- intermittent fasting. All three of us have found that part of our transformation to the Paleo Lifestyle has meant, strangely enough, LESS of a focus on food. By that, we mean that we find we are not food centric for most of our day, unlike when we were consuming the SAD diet – where we needed to eat every few hours to prevent an energy crash. Learn why its ok to go without food (if you’re not hungry) and why you won’t fall in a heap if you do. The post TPS 44: Intermittent Fasting appeared first on The Wellness Couch.

Today we talk to one of our fitness inspirations, Mark Lauren. Mark authored (and starred in) his book “You Are Your Own Gym” – a favourite of all of ours.

He is all about creating ways for people to continue their training regime, regardless of whether they can get their bodies to a gym or not.
