  Speaker 1: All right, let's see is it time to talk to
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: Elena Wood from Nightingale College right here? Well, then let's
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: talk to Elena Woodlena.
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: Hello, it's so good to be here again, Elena.
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: What do you have to say for yourself today?
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: Oh? So many things that I thought specifically we could
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: talk about eating healthy and avoiding falling into the trap
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: of bad diets.
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: Well, I understand that keto can prevent et keto dye
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: can prevent autism. No, not schizophrenia. I think it is
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: eating for help. What have you got here?
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, So just some warning science to kind of look
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: out for when you're seeing advertisements or things like that.
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: And the first is anything that offers a fast, easy
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: and universal results. As we know, changes to our health,
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: our body, our habits, they take time, and since everybody
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: is a little bit different, the universal promise is usually
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: not what's going to happen.
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I remember when they were advertising or there were
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: companies that were saying it was a pregnancy hormone and
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: you'd inject give yourself injections of this this hormone or
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: something that came from pregnant women and that would cause
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: you to lose weight.
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: That my goodness.
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: I don't remember that HHG or something like that anyway.
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: But this is more like like like a fad diet
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: kind of thing, like saying, oh this, if.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: Everybody eats this fad diet, it's going to be healthy
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: for everybody to do this.
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: Exactly exactly, like you know, the keto diet might work
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: for some folks and it simply might not for others.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: Well what now, But still I need my cleanse, don't I?
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: I love this one. And you know, our liver does
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: a really great job detoxing our body all round. And
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: so anything that is advertised and doing a detox or
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: a cleanse is usually just going to make you sick
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: for a few days. And you know, unless the doctor
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: recommends it, I recommend steering.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: Clear that I've seen those pictures of what comes out
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: of my colon.
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah not pretty.
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, just really stupid stuff, isn't it. So, so don't
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: detox and cleans. That's generally not that's a buzzword that
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: means bs try someone's trying to sell you. The only
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: time you need a cleanse is if you're going to
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: have a colonoscopy, and then you that's.
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: The only and then you get to be miserable on purpose.
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so next, what do we got next? Oh, supplements
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: or shakes or pre planned meals.
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, any anything that requires the purchase of their very
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: specific shakes and supplements and meals. And I want to clarify,
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: of course, but I do believe there is space for
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: all of these things. I take supplements, I take protein shakes,
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: things like that, and anybody who's advertising or selling those
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: things specifically, just do a little bit of research, look
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: at the ingredients things like that.
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, years ago, I did ads for some I forget
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: what company it is now, I don't know if they're
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: still around. But to lose weight, you the only thing
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: you could eat was the food that they would sell it.
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: Yes, exactly, the one exactly, And.
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: I would tell you know now, I didn't have to
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: buy the food because I was doing the ads. It worked.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: I mean I did lose some weight, but you don't.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: You're not that forever as soon as you.
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: Not really sustainable.
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: And it didn't taste very good either, So yeah.
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: So steer clear.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, So next.
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: Okay, keep an eye out for any that suggests eliminating
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: entire food groups. I firmly believe that there are no
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: good or bad foods and any The only thing we
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: should really eliminate are things that we're allergic to or
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: we don't like. So if an influencer says, hey, stop
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: eating carbs, I want you to know that you need
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: carbs for your brain to work, so please keep eating them.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: You're saying I shouldn't do I was planning on doing
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: a diet where I eat nothing but baked potatoes. I
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: shouldn't with nothing on them.
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: I recommend that you eat a variety of foods.
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: All right, I won't do that. And then let's see
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: what else do we have here?
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: Oh, very last one. Yeah, so anybody who is suggesting
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: really severe calorie deficit, just really look out for these.
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: We need calories again to stay alive, where our body
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: and our brains to function well. And these are especially
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: targeted ards women and you know, ladies, just just keep
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: an eye out. Know that you've got to eat too
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: to be full, to be whole, and so yeah, just
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: keep an eye out for that stuff.
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: Is it should should you? Should you never count a
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: calorie count?
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: Or or is that you know I have? I have
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: kind of complicated feelings about that. I think it can
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: be a useful tool. I also think that it can
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: be a very stressful way to live your life. So
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: you know, I think doing it for a little while
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: just to get familiar with what and how much you're
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: eating can be helpful, and then just kind of use
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: it as a marker as opposed to a lifestyle like.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: A food diary. Some people find help exactly right down
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: everything they eat so they can see over a period
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: of time what you yeah, they're putting in there.
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Just it's good to build awareness, I think, and
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: I don't see that we most people need to do
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: it all of the time.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I just I found it really discouraging because I
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: did it one time a few years ago and every
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: single meal was a hamburger of some sort and it
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: was just breakfast launch.
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: He did not like that awareness.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I was enjoying it until I really looked at
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: this time. Yeah, that's good.
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: There was a lot of hamburgers.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: The hamburger diet you need. Yeah, I mean it was
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: it was. I enjoyed while I was doing it, but
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: then when I look back on it, I went, well, wa, wait,
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: this is too much. Sounds good? All right, Elena, would
• 6:36
