#272 - Fasting like a girl with Kate Deering
In this episode, we dive deep into the world of fasting, specifically discussing the book "Fast Like a Girl" by Dr. Mindy Pelz. We explore the science (and the myths) behind fasting, particularly for women. Is fasting the magic bullet for health and weight loss as it's often portrayed?
Kate and I dissect key points from Dr. Mindy's book, challenging popular beliefs about fasting, insulin resistance, and the supposed benefits of a ketogenic diet. We address the crucial role of glycogen, the misunderstood purpose of insulin, and how our bodies truly process and store sugar and fat.
We understand fasting is a hot topic, and it's crucial to navigate this space with accurate information. This episode is packed with eye-opening insights that challenge mainstream narratives about dieting and fasting.
So, if you're curious about how fasting affects your metabolism, or if you're considering incorporating it into your health regimen, this episode is a must-listen!

#267: Why you'll want to make this B vitamin a daily staple with Emma Sgourakis
In this episode, I chat with the co-founder of Saturée Emma Sgourakis - The Nutrition Coach about our new product Niacinamide.
Pure Niacinamide powder has been a daily staple for us, and most of our clients, for many years, so when it started
to become harder to find, especially in Australia, we knew we had to source and create our own product as part of our supplements range.
Niacinamide, the amide form of Vitamin B3, provides a myriad of benefits, most notably it improves glucose metabolism and energy production, restrains the release of volatile free fatty acids into the bloodstream protecting against oxidative damage, and serves as a reliable precursor to NAD+
When consumed regularly, in conjunction with a nutritious diet and healthy lifestyle, it’s a powerful weapon against the factors that accelerate ageing … and we’re not just talking about the visible signs of ageing.
