How Continuous Glucose Monitoring Can Help with Your Weight, Mood, and Health with Kara Collier

I was SO looking forward to this interview because I’ve had a love/hate relationship with continuous glucose monitors (CGM)…if you’ve been following me…you know! BUT, I DO think there is a huge place for them to aide us in our health if used mindfully and responsibly in terms of preventative care. She was inspired to focus on this because during her time spent as a nutritionist in the ICU, about 80-90% of the patients she was seeing, were in there due to lifestyle related complications (from diabetes to hypertension, etc.) A lot of the time, it was simply too late to fix things that could have been prevented.

The Metabolic Guide to AVOID and REVERSE Disease in Midlife with Dr. Nasha Winters

I was gifted Dr. Nasha’s book, The Metabolic Approach to Cancer (which isn’t just for people who have cancer — it’s relevant for ALL of us) and I could NOT put it down. It was the best book, I read it like 5 times, and I have changed so much in my life as a result. I was SO excited that I could do a deeper dive on Midlife Conversations with her to share with you! Spoiler alert: she has a different view on hormones than what we may be used to hearing here! 🙂

Why Gut Health is LIKELY Our Problem with Dr. Vincent Pedre

Dr. Vincent Pedre has a GutSMART Quiz as a bonus to his new book The GutSMART Protocol you can take and if you test moderate or severe on the quiz, you more than likely have leaky gut. Listen, just 5 days of a standard antibiotic can take up to 12 months to repair! Inside the book also has actions and recommendations, etc. for what you should eat and do to help yourself depending on what your test score is.

Preventing and Reversing Type 2 Diabetes with Dr. Beverly Yates

Today we are talking about Type 2 Diabetes (and Type 2 specifically). If it’s not affecting YOU, it’s affecting your friends and/or family or someone you know. It’s a super common issue in midlife. The good news is, this type of diabetes can usually be reversed! I was introduced to dr. Beverly Yates from a mutual friend because I was having my own blood sugar challenges (this is a story for another time!) and the first thing that came to mind was — do I have type 2 diabetes? So we dove deep and I LOVED her so much that I knew I HAD to share her knowledge with you!Â
