| 24 Oct 2024 | 38. Top 10 Nutrition Mistakes: Part 1 | 00:25:14 | |
In today's episode, I'm kicking off a multi-part series on the top 10 nutrition mistakes I see when it comes to nutrition. These mistakes are the biggest reasons why people continue to struggle with creating a sustainable nutritional approach that yields positive outcomes.
In part one of the series, I go through the first two mistakes. The first is emphasizing individual ingredients or nutrients instead of overall dietary patterns. I'll cover why concentrating on something like just protein isn't sustainable for an overall healthy lifestyle. I also share findings on what toxicity really means and why looking at ingredients and the hype around them doesn't always make sense.
The second mistake I'm diving into is thinking you can earn your food via movement or exercise. This is something I was told growing up, as I'm sure you may have experienced the same information. I'll walk you through how calories are burned and much more.
Stay tuned for the next part of this series!

| 18 Apr 2024 | 27. Simplified Macro Tracking | 00:25:30 | |
In today's episode, I'm talking all things tracking macros. Macro tracking means you're tracking protein, carbohydrates, and fats. Macro tracking can be a great tool not only to increase food and nutrition knowledge but also to help us do the most efficient things we can to get us closer to our goals. Improving body composition, losing fat mass, and gaining and maintaining muscle mass require reaching a certain protein threshold, so tracking macros comes into play. You'll hear me share how I help my clients simplify tracking their macros as a guide to reaching their goals.

I'm so excited to have Ally Spears with me today! Ally is a fourth-generation farmer and rancher originally from northern California, but after attending Texas A&M, she made Texas her home. She received her undergraduate degree in ag business and is a program coordinator for the Poultry Science Department at Texas A&M, focusing on youth programming and recruitment.
She is also pursuing her Ph.D. in ag communications as she sees a need for consumers to better understand where their food is coming from. Her research is focused on social media and beef influencers online. Ally shares how she believes women are the needles that move the ranching and farming industries forward. Aly's podcast, Ag Chicks, helps highlight and introduce women who are doing incredible things to help feed our world.
In this episode, Ally shares what it's like being a generational farmer and rancher, what goes on in the beef industry, what a cattle producer's processes look like from start to finish, and what hurdles the beef industry is overcoming. She also busts some myths and misinformation about utilizing hormones and antibiotics in cattle. We talk a lot about the purpose of raising cattle and the importance of farmers, ranchers, and how just 2% of the population is feeding 100% of the population.

In today's episode, I'm walking you through the difference between increasing your protein vs. increasing your protein ratio in your diet.

I'll share a real-world example of an actual meal one of my clients had and how I adjusted it to increase its protein ratio. Understanding how to look at ratios will help you plan, track, and reach your goals.

Shannon, Payton, and team Evlo invite more people to use Gentle Consistency ™ to build themselves up in the fitness routine, rather than tear themselves down.

But first, a little disclaimer: I actually don’t like thinking of our nutrition as “on track” or “off track” but this title was just the easiest way to title the topic. Instead, our nutrition is a series of choices and every choice is a new chance to get back to where you want to be.

| 19 Sep 2024 | 36. There Should be More to Your Nutrition Than Just "Listening to Your Body" and Here's Why | 00:15:24 | |
In today’s episode, we’re talking about why there needs to be more to your nutritional approach than just “listening to your body.” What if your body is telling you something that isn’t accurate? What if your appetite cues are off? Does that mean you shouldn’t eat because you’re listening to your body?
Being in tune with your body is important, but it can send you subjective signals influenced by several outside variables. So many things affect our hunger hormones, like sleep and stress. Building a foundation of a balanced, nourishing, satisfying diet will help you stay on track and fuel your body well, no matter the outside variables. With the right information and experience, you can trust yourself to make nutritional decisions that are right for you instead of just trusting your body.

Today's episode is all about satiety. We are talking about what it is, how it works, and why it is important. This is one of those terms that I feel like has been thrown around a lot in the nutrition space, but I haven’t seen a great explanation of why it matters to you and how we can build our diet around it. Creating satiety in your diet truly is a cornerstone to creating sustainability in your diet.

In today's episode, I talk about the key components of an anti-inflammatory diet and share tips on what to include and avoid in your diet to help combat inflammation.
I cover the difference between acute and chronic inflammation and the causes of both. It's our body's job to identify and attack inflammatory agents, but our diets aren't always the cause of inflammation and cannot always be the cure for chronic inflammation. This episode will guide you in creating a dietary pattern that is going to be anti-inflammatory. I dive deep with examples of components to include in your diet, like Omega-3s, fiber, and antioxidants. I also share the importance of reducing our intake of added sugar, alcohol, and deep-fried foods.
I hope this episode helps you look at nutrition in a way that is truly applicable without information overload.

| 25 Jul 2024 | 32. What Happens to Our Metabolism as We Age? | 00:19:07 | |
In today's episode, I have a multi-faceted topic: metabolism. I recently had a client ask me if weight gain through certain phases of life is inevitable. While there are many factors that go into metabolism and weight, we can help the process along in different ways. Metabolism is the combination of all the chemical processes that allow an organism to sustain life. It's the conversion of energy from food into energy for life-sustaining tasks such as breathing, blood circulation, building and repairing cells, digesting food, etc.
I'm sharing the findings of a study I found (linked below) that examined metabolism across many different ages, geographical locations, and genders. This episode covers how metabolism changes throughout a lifetime. I also share information on basal metabolic rate, what that means, why some people's metabolism is faster than others, and how genetics can play a part. I explain how calories are burned and what affects that, how different foods have different thermodynamic effects, how energy expenditure changes as we age, and tips to help keep our metabolisms running efficiently.

Today, we are covering quality versus quantity. It’s the classic question, "Is what I’m eating more important, or how much I’m eating the most important?” SPOILER!

We’re talking about the quality versus the quantity of food you eat and what can influence those things. We’ll also dive into being upfront about your personal goals, as that’s the most important thing for where you want to place your highest priority regarding quality or quantity.

| 04 Jul 2024 | 31. How To Approach Eating At Holidays and Celebrations | 00:23:30 | |
This is a special recording, as tomorrow is MK’s first birthday! I thought this was the perfect time to talk about how to handle food at holidays and celebrations. In today’s episode, I’m sharing strategies and tips for pre-planning and participating in these life moments. I chat with my clients a lot about this, and I always come back to the question of whether we have the right foundations in place on a daily basis; these types of events shouldn’t make or break our progress. We can approach them with curiosity and look at them as a practice to always be prepared for future events.
One of the biggest things I do to plan ahead before a bigger occasion is to take a step back and focus on the actual reason we are celebrating--because it’s not food. It’s usually a person or a special thing that has happened. Remembering that can set the tone for your mind to not focus on food. To set ourselves up for success, we need to have realistic expectations of how we react and behave around food at these events. This episode will help you with awareness and ideas on how to make choices that align with your goals.
