Listen in to see if this is something that might be a good fit for you!

174: Gut Health, Fiber & Diverticulitis with Terri Ward, MS, FNTP

We’re talking about gut health in this week’s episode - specifically zeroing in on fiber and diving into diverticulitis which affects so many people across the country. My guest, Terri Ward, wrote a book called The Healing Diverticulitis Cookbook which lays out a plan that includes a 3-day clear liquids phase, then a 2-week low fiber recovery phase, and then a high fiber maintenance phase. I think it’s a great digestive reset whether you have diverticulitis or not! 🙋Some of us don’t do well with a lot of fiber and we have an interesting discussion about that along with more general gut health topics. Come listen and learn more about gut health which is always central to your overall health.

173: The Electron Diet

I have been much more focused on my electron diet than my food diet. It turns out, the more electrons we have in our body the better our metabolism - and every other system  - works. You have a little more “wiggle room” with your diet when you have good electron flow.

God designed us to get electrons in three major ways: through sunshine, through grounding and through food. But we get them the most abundantly through the sun and the earth. It always comes back to our Genesis Prescription and in this week’s episode we’re making more connections about the amazing way God made our body to work in relation to Creation. Come listen to more intimately know God as your Mighty Healer and Provider.

171: Foundational Protocol FAQ

I am about to guide a client group through a detox protocol that I have found to be incredibly effective and powerful. In this week’s podcast, I’m explaining what that is and how we go about it. I’m answering your most pressing questions like:

  • What it does

  • How long it takes

  • How much it costs

  • What to eat while you’re going through it

  • What you can expect along the way

Most everyone can benefit from this kind of protocol (ever taken an antibiotic? been exposed to a toxin? eaten a poor diet? relied on over-the-counter or prescription medications? You are a good candidate!)

Listen in to hear the details and consider joining us!

170: Clean Fasting vs Dirty Fasting

People often ask me what is or isn’t allowed during a fast. Does lemon water break my fast? Does creamer in my coffee break my fast? Does stevia break my fast? Do supplements break my fast?

I thought it would be a good time to address this topic since we are about to kick off a new round of Feast 2 Fast® and - spoiler alert - you might want to start weaning off your sweet coffee now.

The bottom line is that people want to know what they can consume during a fast and because this question has become so common and, because there is nuance and gray area, the concept of Clean vs Dirty fasting has emerged as a nutritional hot topic.

Listen to this week’s episode to get the specifics and decide which category best suits your needs and goals.

169: A Look Inside My Summer Food Journal

I’m back after my short hiatus! In this week’s episode we’re talking about the food journal I kept this summer which, in truth, I’m a little cringey about sharing with you.

I’m much more feasty in the summertime. I eat more carbs; I don’t fast as long; I drink more wine. Tis the season of longer days, looser schedules, less regiment, lots of social activity and lots of Heck Yeahs. I definitely ate, drank and was merry!

The purpose of the journal is not to give you a shining blueprint of how to eat, but to be real and transparent about how I eat. One of the best ways to teach you grace and sustainability in your eating habits is to show you how I have them in mine. We don’t have to eat perfectly all of the time, as long as we have some core nutrition and good habits in place most of the time. Download the journal and listen to the podcast for an insider look at the food, the strategy and the grace that I incorporate into my real life way of eating.

168: From Chaos to Order

Our bodies are a creation of order. We are fearfully and wonderfully made and not meant to live in bodies in a state of chaos. Poor health comes from disorder in the body. When there is disorder, there is disease. A state of ill-health can be looked at as a state of chaos- the absence of God’s order. It is being out of alignment with the way He made us. There is some element of His Presence or His Provision that is missing.

We can establish peace and order in the body by following the order in which God established Creation. He deliberately ordered the foundation of the universe which mirrors the foundational needs of our bodies. This is the essence of The Genesis Prescription. Everything we need to know for good health is revealed to us In the Beginning.

Come listen as we discuss the 8 essential elements of good health and how to restore order to the body. And come join us as we apply them this summer in The Genesis Prescription program. More info here.

167: Ancestral Living for Modern Health with Holistic Hilda

Butter, broth, meat, organs, raw dairy, salt, ferments - these are the traditional foods that kept our ancestors healthy and thriving. Nutritional pioneer Dr. Weston A Price found that the further people deviated from these foods, the more sick and physically compromised they became.

In this week’s podcast, guest Hilda Labrada Gore and I highlight some of Dr. Price’s most important discoveries and how they are so much in alignment with real food the way God made it. She shares stories of her interaction with indegenous people across the globe and the wise ways they honor traditional living for optimal health.

Come listen and reconnect with what nourishes your body and soul.
