- 0:29Speaker 2: Yeah, so just moved to Jupiter from being up north a little bit in Martin County, so working with people remote and in person in in Jupiter, which is awesome, loving that.
- 0:40Speaker 2: And then what it is I'm doing is it's a lot of focus on nutrition but as it pertains to sports and athleticism, so there's a fitness component to it, which is really cool that I get to encompass all things wellness as it pertains to sport, recovery, wellness, going forward with a really comprehensive approach 100% inclusive 100%, to make athletes just elevate their performance in life, and your clients?
- 1:07Speaker 1: Oh yeah, absolutely.
- 1:08Speaker 2: And I find that most of the time it's athletes, but you'd be surprised at how many people just want to encompass that lifestyle as it is.
- 1:14Speaker 2: But yeah, primarily athletes.
- 1:16Speaker 1: And you're mainly working in for the fitness component with some clients at Joe Ed's spot.
- 1:21Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, so Joe Ed's has changed the name over to hit it great, but it is the old Joe Ed's location, so I've been there for six this year, so still working out of there for some fitness clients.
- 1:33Speaker 2: The nutrition side of things is just on my own.
- 1:35Speaker 2: Started my own company there, so it's it's been a cool road.
- 1:39Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah.
- 1:39Speaker 1: What's your fitness company called?
- 1:43Speaker 2: You mean the nutrition?
- 1:43Speaker 1: side, sorry, nutrition.
- 1:45Speaker 2: Coastal, coastal Breeze plan word Bree for my name, bris Wellness, so Coastal Breeze, wellness.
- 1:51Speaker 1: So that's your side of, that's your own thing, yes, and then you're also seeing fitness clients.
- 1:56Speaker 1: Hit it great, joey diesel spot.
- 1:58Speaker 2: Yeah, which is pretty much golf specific human.
- 2:01Speaker 1: I mean, it's really human movement, as you know from the physical therapy side of things a lot of rotational movement athletes and that sort of thing, yeah, yeah, gotcha, for what would you say is like your wheelhouse of clientele you like to work with.
- 2:14Speaker 2: I mean ideally, athletes.
- 2:15Speaker 2: I've always been an athlete, I relate to athletes, even, I like to say ex athletes, right, if it's the mom who's in her fifties, who hasn't played her sport in years.
- 2:25Speaker 2: You still have that mindset.
- 2:26Speaker 2: You're once an athlete, always an athlete, just that driven, you know, goal minded as far as reaching for goals, right, so that mentality of a human which tends to transfer over from athletes.
- 2:38Speaker 1: Yeah, you can take the athlete up the field, but you can't take that field out of the athlete.
- 2:42Speaker 1: Like the competitiveness.
- 2:43Speaker 1: I've always felt like that myself too, and hence some of the motivation for this podcast.
- 2:46Speaker 1: Like this, in my own business that I ran, I have been running, but the weekend warrior, the athletic driven person, motivated, enthusiastic, to improve their life, open minded to learn new things and be like that's, you know, let's get after it.
- 3:00Speaker 1: Exactly I've always felt.
- 3:01Speaker 1: I mean, with that, I feel like with the type of clientele that we also see, it really helps amplify the improvements we can make and it makes it a lot more fulfilling on our end.
- 3:11Speaker 2: It really does this is actually working.
- 3:13Speaker 1: You're actually doing your stuff like you're buying in this is great and they open up in a different way.
- 3:17Speaker 2: You know not to say that anybody else is bad, that's not what I'm saying.
- 3:20Speaker 2: It's just a connection level.
- 3:22Speaker 2: That's different and for me and like I know that's how you guys feel as well with you know the sport specificity of what you do with your PT clinic, of just they are really there for the wellness of themselves and care to accomplish that.
- 3:37Speaker 2: Yeah, which is really inspiring to see and makes you want to work harder on what you do.
- 3:40Speaker 1: Totally yeah.
- 3:41Speaker 1: And then you see the results is encouraging, fulfilling, oh, absolutely.
- 3:43Speaker 1: Where are you from originally?
- 3:45Speaker 2: Chicago.
- 3:46Speaker 1: Okay, suburbs yeah.
- 3:48Speaker 2: Yeah, born and raised.
- 3:50Speaker 1: And then from that would you go to undergrad.
- 3:52Speaker 2: Went to undergrad at Florida Gulf Coast University, played softball there for a year.
- 3:55Speaker 1: What position?
- 3:56Speaker 2: Center field.
- 3:57Speaker 1: Okay, so you were fast Used to be yeah Once upon a time, yeah, exactly.
- 4:01Speaker 2: Slapper and outfielder.
- 4:03Speaker 1: So we left it in.
- 4:05Speaker 2: I batted lefty through righty.
- 4:07Speaker 1: Okay, so ambidextrous.
- 4:08Speaker 1: Yeah, so I was in a combo.
- 4:10Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah.
- 4:11Speaker 2: Started off, righty, when I was a kid and my swing coach was like you're too fast for this, we need to get you on the left side yeah.
- 4:16Speaker 2: So that was Smart move.
- 4:18Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it transitioned from, you know, sixth seventh grade.
- 4:21Speaker 2: It was difficult, but then after that it just feels like second nature.
- 4:24Speaker 2: And now, if I pick up a bat and try to swing, righty it just doesn't work.
- 4:28Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it looks like I've never played a sport.
- 4:30Speaker 1: Like, are you any kind of athletic at all?
- 4:32Speaker 2: But what's funny is I?
- 4:33Speaker 1: golf righty.
- 4:33Speaker 1: Oh interesting.
- 4:35Speaker 2: So weird.
- 4:35Speaker 2: Don't cross over the swings.
- 4:38Speaker 1: Good thing.
- 4:38Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 4:39Speaker 1: Yeah, so not have to cross over.
- 4:40Speaker 1: I was going to ask.
- 4:41Speaker 1: So your husband Austin, he's a golf pro up in the Martin County or Jupiter to quest area.
- 4:47Speaker 2: Yeah, he's at the dye, preserving Dye.
- 4:49Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, yeah, does he help you with your golf?
- 4:52Speaker 2: Oh yeah, oh yeah.
- 4:53Speaker 1: Unsolicited or always invitate.
- 4:55Speaker 1: Like is there.
- 4:56Speaker 2: No, no, he definitely asked because he knows that I will get frustrated with things super easily If I like can't catch on or don't understand a concept or whatever.
- 5:03Speaker 2: So, especially like if we're playing, he'll just be like do you want a tip?
- 5:06Speaker 2: Do you want help with that, but that's a good intro.
- 5:08Speaker 2: I mean, I had never really played golf, I had gone putting and played putt putt and little things like that.
- 5:14Speaker 2: But when we first started dating in college, one of our first few dates was at a driving range and I was hooking them, missing topping balls, whatever, and I finally hit one perfect one.
- 5:23Speaker 2: In that one perfect one Brought you back the next time Totally Brought you back the next time One shot.
- 5:28Speaker 1: It's like if I could just do that every time.
- 5:30Speaker 1: Imagine if I just had that one seven iron like that.
- 5:33Speaker 1: Oh, totally, I know exactly what you're talking about and it's super frustrating.
- 5:37Speaker 2: It is, it's the hardest sport ever.
- 5:40Speaker 1: I don't disagree with that.
- 5:41Speaker 2: I think it's just because there's no reaction, Like you have to create everything in a golf swing right.
- 5:45Speaker 2: Like at least with softball.
- 5:46Speaker 2: The ball was being thrown at you, you swing and hope for the best.
- 5:49Speaker 2: Half the time You're throwing it, somebody else is reacting to that.
- 5:53Speaker 2: It hits the ground, whatever, and that's majority of sports right.
- 5:56Speaker 2: But with golf, the balls right there on the tee, you're the one who has to accomplish everything.
- 6:00Speaker 1: It's not moving.
- 6:01Speaker 2: Right.
- 6:01Speaker 2: Still you would think it'd be the easiest thing ever, but no.
- 6:05Speaker 1: That's a.
- 6:05Speaker 1: So is there any crossover like does does Austin work out at hit it great currently or send clients and stuff there?
- 6:12Speaker 1: So the relationship.
- 6:14Speaker 2: Yeah, when I first started working there, I actually trained him there and then there's definitely a crossover as far as like membership at his golf course that then show up to hit it great, hit it great athletes that have then gone on to become members over there.
- 6:30Speaker 2: That sort of thing Him and I actually don't work out there.
- 6:33Speaker 2: I needed something for just me to clear my head where I wasn't programming for myself, and I needed you know, coaches need coaches.
- 6:39Speaker 2: So I went to started working out at Maddabalic, which is in Jupiter, and then he saw how much I loved it and just you know the people I met there and everything, so he was all in.
- 6:49Speaker 2: So we both go there now.
- 6:50Speaker 1: Yeah, maddabalic, I mean I have met a lot of people that really like that spot.
- 6:54Speaker 2: You know it's awesome, it's one of those places like you feel like an athlete again.
- 6:58Speaker 2: You're moving like an athlete, you're training.
- 7:00Speaker 2: It's not just a generic workout that you just went and moved and got sweaty.
- 7:04Speaker 1: Like there's actually purpose behind their methods which I really appreciate Between sets texting and stuff.
- 7:09Speaker 1: Yeah, Not doing that.
- 7:10Speaker 1: It's high intensity.
- 7:11Speaker 1: I mean the times that I've done it have definitely been super out of breath, sweaty, tight, burnt oh for sure For sure.
- 7:17Speaker 1: How long have you been?
- 7:19Speaker 2: going there Since May of 21.
- 7:21Speaker 2: So we're pushing three years.
- 7:23Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 7:24Speaker 2: I'm friends with the owner there, so they did like a friends and family first inaugural week.
- 7:29Speaker 1: Yeah, so I started then.
- 7:30Speaker 1: Yeah, that's cool.
- 7:31Speaker 2: Been there since the beginning.
- 7:33Speaker 1: That's awesome, so that's really cool, though I was going to sit with your nutrition business and then also working with clientele and the fitness component and hit it great the holistic, comprehensive approach and care that you can provide for the clientele to have a complete sense of like.
- 7:48Speaker 1: Here's the life health coaching direction for both the fitness and nutrition.
- 7:53Speaker 1: What role would you say the nutrition component plays in somebody's health and wellness direction?
- 7:59Speaker 2: You smart because you know I love this Gosh that was a great one.
- 8:02Speaker 1: Let me roll my sleeves up on this one.
- 8:04Speaker 2: Like okay here, ooh, drastic, Drastic.
- 8:07Speaker 2: So obviously inflammation is going to build in the body right From your end of things on a PT side.
- 8:14Speaker 2: You see that all the time, whether it's from injury, whether it's from surgery, whatever it is from right.
- 8:20Speaker 2: Your nutrition does not help that.
- 8:23Speaker 2: If you're eating like crap, right.
- 8:25Speaker 2: So what's the standard American diet, right?
- 8:28Speaker 1: Cheeseburgers, french fries, milkshake.
- 8:30Speaker 2: Even all our athletes.
- 8:31Speaker 1: Soda.
- 8:32Speaker 2: All the athletes are like oh, we're going to Mo's after practice, we're going and doing this.
- 8:35Speaker 1: I like Mo's.
- 8:36Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I mean we all do Full disclosure.
- 8:38Speaker 1: I'm a Mo's person over Chipotle.
- 8:39Speaker 2: Are you?
- 8:40Speaker 2: I was in college.
- 8:41Speaker 1: Yeah, you get free chips every time.
- 8:42Speaker 1: Oh yeah, you know, I didn't get my freshman 15 from Mo's.
- 8:45Speaker 1: I learned Mo's is good, I learned a hard lesson.
- 8:50Speaker 2: I learned a hard lesson, but it's.
- 8:52Speaker 2: I mean, it makes a drastic difference If you're trying to perform it at an elite and high level.
- 8:57Speaker 2: Whatever that may be, your nutrition has to be on par with what you're doing in the gym, what you're doing on the field.
- 9:04Speaker 2: On the court on the whatever it is for your sport.
- 9:06Speaker 2: Right, because if you are constantly just adding inflammation into your body through improper nutrition, right, you're not going to perform well, right.
- 9:16Speaker 1: What type of foods people always would ask okay, what are inflammatory foods?
- 9:20Speaker 1: I would imagine it's somewhat specific to each type of people and own sensitivities and stuff.
- 9:26Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 9:26Speaker 2: So I mean, if we broke it down to just like the simplest form, right, Because people are like I don't know what's good, I don't know what's bad, I don't know this.
- 9:33Speaker 2: We think back to 10,000 years ago.
- 9:35Speaker 2: 5,000 years ago, what did humans eat?
- 9:39Speaker 1: Right.
- 9:40Speaker 2: There wasn't a publics to just walk into him like oh serial love this right, so you had animals.
- 9:47Speaker 2: You had to go like hunters and gatherers.
- 9:49Speaker 2: That's what we were.
- 9:49Speaker 2: Right, so you hunted for animals.
- 9:51Speaker 2: That was your best source, because you needed the protein and the fats.
- 9:54Speaker 2: You foraged and you gathered for fruits and whatever vegetables you could, and you even did it to your local area.
- 10:02Speaker 2: Right, Because if my ancestors in Europe were foraging around Europe, you weren't finding coconuts pineapples, yeah right.
- 10:11Speaker 2: So there's also that aspect to the holistic side, to the bio individuality of every human being isn't going to necessarily need the same foods and tolerate the same foods.
- 10:21Speaker 2: Yeah, because of your lineage and people.
- 10:23Speaker 2: That's just something that blows people's minds when we start talking.
- 10:26Speaker 2: It's like, hey, my ancestors are from Europe, yours are from the Caribbean islands.
- 10:31Speaker 2: We don't need the same things.
- 10:33Speaker 2: Maybe we can and maybe we tolerate it but maybe we don't, and that's something to take into consideration.
- 10:39Speaker 1: Ancestrial lineage is different, for sure.
- 10:41Speaker 2: For sure.
- 10:42Speaker 2: So at the core of it and I think most people can agree like oh, I know I should eat more proteins, fruits, vegetables, drink, you know, my water, but it's true like eating in a way that ancestrally and primitively was designed for humans to eat.
- 10:56Speaker 2: It's not a diet, that's just what humans were brought up to eat, right.
- 11:02Speaker 2: And now it's like hey well, I went into Publix and I got cereal and a Reese's Cup and a Coke and a Pub Sub bag of malaise potato chips.
- 11:12Speaker 2: And you eat it and you're like oh, my stomach's, you know, super bloated.
- 11:15Speaker 2: I have brain fog.
- 11:16Speaker 2: I've got this.
- 11:17Speaker 1: Well, of course, of course you do.
- 11:19Speaker 1: That makes sense.
- 11:19Speaker 1: I'm a sucker for Pub subs, yeah.
- 11:22Speaker 2: I mean, and they have a time of place.
- 11:23Speaker 1: Yeah, I do the 80 20 rule.
- 11:26Speaker 1: What are your thoughts on that?
- 11:27Speaker 2: We love the 80 20 rule.
- 11:29Speaker 2: Guys, he's just rolling in with all the best.
- 11:31Speaker 1: What do you reckon?
- 11:31Speaker 1: Yeah, what are your questions?
- 11:32Speaker 1: What are your thoughts on that?
- 11:33Speaker 2: So 80 20 is the only way I will work with clients and this is why, if I told somebody so another question that we've talked about a lot right, Carnivore?
- 11:43Speaker 2: Carnivore is extreme and as much as I appreciate somebody wanting to eat the meat because it is valued in their diet, it is very, very restrictive and limited Right.
- 11:53Speaker 2: So if you can handle that and that's your lifestyle, go for it.
- 11:57Speaker 2: The average person cannot be that restricted, especially in social settings, especially with family, all of that.
- 12:04Speaker 2: So what 80 20 is is 80% of the time you're eating quality foods.
- 12:08Speaker 1: Yeah, pretty solid.
- 12:09Speaker 2: Yeah, you're eating proteins, fruits, vegetables, right, Whether that's seafood, meat, chicken, whatever vegetables you want, whatever fruits you want, raw organic honey, you know dairy things like that.
- 12:21Speaker 2: Okay, 20% of the time, live your life.
- 12:24Speaker 2: Yeah go have a drink with your friends.
- 12:27Speaker 2: Go enjoy somebody's birthday it's your kids' birthday.
- 12:29Speaker 2: Have a slice of cake, yeah right.
- 12:31Speaker 2: All those things that we just talked about.
- 12:32Speaker 2: As far as inflammatory things to the body, yeah, it still has a purpose.
- 12:37Speaker 2: I genuinely believe this gets a little woo woo.
- 12:39Speaker 2: Right, but food fuels your body yeah, right, but there's still that part of you like your soul and your happiness and like, totally cognitively, like this cake made me happy that I got to enjoy this with my family.
- 12:51Speaker 2: Yeah, totally, or grandma always makes these cookies for Christmas.
- 12:55Speaker 2: Yeah you bet I'm having at least one of those right, and that's okay.
- 12:58Speaker 2: And that's the 20%.
- 12:59Speaker 2: You want to go more extreme.
- 13:01Speaker 2: You want to do like a 90 10, but it allows for flexibility, right, and you can count it how you want.
- 13:06Speaker 2: If it's every 10 days, you pick two days that you do something fun, or throughout a single day, 80% of my day was really good and 20% of my day you know flexed or anything yeah so you can kind of pick and choose how that works best for you.
- 13:19Speaker 2: That's how.
- 13:19Speaker 2: I do it.
- 13:20Speaker 2: I can do it daily, right Like everybody who knows me knows, I'm going to drink a Celsius.
- 13:24Speaker 2: Yeah, that's my vice.
- 13:25Speaker 2: I like it, it's my thing.
- 13:27Speaker 1: What flavor?
- 13:28Speaker 2: I mean my go to is wild berry.
- 13:29Speaker 1: Okay, you're a wild berries and I can see that.
- 13:32Speaker 2: I'm playing Jane there.
- 13:33Speaker 2: For sure there's a few others that.
- 13:35Speaker 2: I'm going to send, but that's the go to right.
- 13:37Speaker 2: So I can, I can have that Celsius, knowing that my food for the day is going to be good, I'm going to get movement in, my hydration is going to be quality, like I'm doing all the other things to stay on top of it that that one thing isn't going to set me off track towards fitness goals.
- 13:53Speaker 1: You know, whatever it may be, so the 8020 as long as like with the sense of like not going to be 9010 or 95 five, if it's going to bring a bunch of anxiety which is also going to maybe limit or inhibit overall growth development.
- 14:04Speaker 2: Right, Because what happens?
- 14:05Speaker 2: Right, Okay, carnivore again.
- 14:07Speaker 2: If I tell somebody, let's do carnivore right, which let's just say for the sake of restructiveness, I put you on there, Okay, a week later you're like I want fruit.
- 14:16Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 14:17Speaker 2: Okay, so you have a piece of fruit, but then we start spiraling.
- 14:20Speaker 2: Your blood glucose is all over the place, right?
- 14:22Speaker 2: Your sleep patterns aren't great.
- 14:24Speaker 2: Now, all of a sudden, you're just binging out on whatever you can find and eat.
- 14:27Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 14:27Speaker 2: That is what we don't want.
- 14:29Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 14:30Speaker 2: So restricting to that kind of degree for anything, whether it's like, hey, we're going to restrict.
- 14:35Speaker 2: You know, a lot of nutrition coaches are like we're going to restrict your calories to 1200 calories a day, which is yeah, that's why you're just going to gorge out again, yeah.
- 14:46Speaker 1: Like something I've heard of that was like deprivation leads to binging.
- 14:49Speaker 1: Hundred percent or deprivation restriction will ultimately be binging.
- 14:52Speaker 1: There was a time, like back in college days, was like, man, I'm learning all this stuff.
- 14:56Speaker 1: I'm like I want to implement this in my life, Right, and I was trying to be really strict and just make a you know, an intense change pretty fast.
- 15:04Speaker 1: Three days later, Taco Bell, hardcore for sure.
- 15:07Speaker 2: Yeah, it's the same thing with fitness right.
- 15:09Speaker 2: When you're all in and people are like I'm going to go five days, six days this week, and now you're so sore and it's like, well, I'm never going again.
- 15:15Speaker 1: That's too much.
- 15:16Speaker 1: So what do you recommend with that to end, to prevent the flashes of intensity and motivation at the beginning that leads to fizzling out?
- 15:24Speaker 2: particularly for nutrition or nutrition.
- 15:28Speaker 2: Find the few things like what?
- 15:30Speaker 2: What do you love?
- 15:32Speaker 2: When I say if I said right now, what?
- 15:34Speaker 2: What would you do if I gave you a cheat meal, right?
- 15:37Speaker 2: A lot of people register those words.
- 15:39Speaker 2: Yeah which I don't think that's a cheat, just enjoy it.
- 15:42Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 15:42Speaker 2: I don't like the word cheap, it's just part of the 20%, x, whatever.
- 15:44Speaker 2: Yeah, whatever you want to call it, it's not cheating, just enjoy it.
- 15:47Speaker 2: Right.
- 15:47Speaker 2: Take maybe five things and put it on a list.
- 15:51Speaker 2: Like I absolutely don't want to give up Reese's, I don't want to give up, I don't everybody's different right spaghetti and meatballs, because I want the pasta.
- 16:00Speaker 1: Chicken wings.
- 16:01Speaker 2: Sure Chicken from Thirsty Turtle Shout out to Juno Beach.
- 16:05Speaker 1: Yeah right, so pick your few things on there for years.
- 16:08Speaker 2: Pick your few things that are absolutely worth it to you and sprinkle them in and enjoy it, and then, majority of the time, as you're eating clean, you're eating healthy you're right, you're eating in those ways that your body wants for the nutrition of it.
- 16:24Speaker 2: I find most people, including myself, all of a sudden it's like, well, I don't even want those things, all that much.
- 16:29Speaker 2: I don't feel good when I totally agree.
- 16:31Speaker 2: Right, I feel lethargic and tired.
- 16:34Speaker 2: My workouts are poor.
- 16:35Speaker 2: Yeah you know I just it's not worth it to me.
- 16:38Speaker 2: And that's what a lot of my athletes start realizing is as they dive, you know, more and more down the rabbit hole of just what is nutrition actually mean for me as an athlete?
- 16:47Speaker 2: Not just.
- 16:47Speaker 2: Oh.
- 16:48Speaker 2: Well, let's talk about nutrition because we're humans and we eat food.
- 16:51Speaker 2: But no specifically athletics.
- 16:53Speaker 2: Yeah they start to realize all of that stuff is not worth it.
- 16:56Speaker 1: Yeah, and you really start pinpointing when it is yeah, I was gonna say like I feel like I've noticed in my own life, but it sounds like we're habit developing changes that are the ultimate win.
- 17:06Speaker 1: The ultimate win is like oh, you know, I really don't want more than this one little slice of cake.
- 17:11Speaker 1: I don't kind of like it, you know or maybe you don't even want it.
- 17:14Speaker 1: That's the win right.
- 17:16Speaker 1: The habit change.
- 17:16Speaker 1: Is that correct?
- 17:17Speaker 1: Like?
- 17:17Speaker 2: yeah, like I'll be honest, my daughter's third birthday was this past weekend.
- 17:20Speaker 1: Oh, really that's cool.
- 17:21Speaker 2: We had cake from Publix and so naturally everybody's having cake.
- 17:26Speaker 2: Having cake didn't even have it at the party because didn't interest me.
- 17:28Speaker 2: Got home and I was like I'm gonna have a bite.
- 17:30Speaker 2: It doesn't actually taste good.
- 17:32Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah.
- 17:33Speaker 2: Like that to me wasn't worth it.
- 17:34Speaker 2: Now, if I had had, like you know, a homemade something or other, maybe it's different, but for me it's just not of interest, right?
- 17:43Speaker 2: So I took the couple of bites and I was just like I don't feel good, it wasn't even worth it.
- 17:48Speaker 2: Like I'd rather have had something else you know.
- 17:51Speaker 2: So you start learning those things too, where it's just like, Okay, this is out, definitely don't want to deal with this anymore.
- 17:57Speaker 2: I don't feel good when I have these things, and I do feel good when I have these and your body starts to react to that.
- 18:03Speaker 1: Yeah, so those changes I mean those changes happen after like consistent amount of time, right, Would you say you'd be surprised.
- 18:10Speaker 1: Like how fast.
- 18:11Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, yeah, Especially if you start getting rid of things that are inflammatory.
- 18:15Speaker 2: So you talk about, like seed oils hot topic right now sugars, processed carbs that's a big one.
- 18:23Speaker 2: So everybody's like anti carbs.
- 18:24Speaker 2: Carbs make you fat, fats will make you fat, sugars will make you fat all the things apparently make you fat.
- 18:29Speaker 2: There's a time and place for all of it, right, but the seed oils are very inflammatory to our bodies.
- 18:34Speaker 2: What are seed oils?
- 18:35Speaker 2: It's all the processed oils sunflower oils, safflower, soy.
- 18:38Speaker 2: What stuff?
- 18:40Speaker 1: has allowed that in it.
- 18:41Speaker 2: Anything processed, for the most part Like.
- 18:43Speaker 2: You walk into Publix, right, and you have the outer aisles in.
- 18:46Speaker 2: What's on the outer aisles produce?
- 18:48Speaker 2: Then you hit your meat, pork, chicken, dairy, whatever Fabulous.
- 18:54Speaker 2: You go to the inside aisles, it's all the chips.
- 18:56Speaker 2: Chips are just soaked in seed oils you get.
- 18:59Speaker 2: You know all the kids.
- 19:00Speaker 2: You go and look at all the kids' cereal that they're promoting.
- 19:03Speaker 2: It's all dyes, seed oils, sugars, high fructose corn syrup, right.
- 19:08Speaker 2: So my three categories as far as watch out for inflammation, particularly again for athletes.
- 19:15Speaker 2: Seed oils, processed sugars right, cause natural sugars you're gonna find in fruit Like.
- 19:22Speaker 2: And you'll hear people who are like oh, limit fruit because it's full of sugar.
- 19:26Speaker 1: It's bad for you.
- 19:27Speaker 1: Natural fruit toast.
- 19:28Speaker 2: In what world do you think fruit is actually bad for you?
- 19:32Speaker 2: Right.
- 19:32Speaker 2: And processed carbs right, Because you're going to get carbs from fruits and vegetables, right?
- 19:39Speaker 2: Am I gonna tell you not to eat a potato?
- 19:41Speaker 2: Sweet potatoes are a great source of carbs, especially for energy for athletes right, but that's not processed.
- 19:48Speaker 1: What would be a processed sugar?
- 19:50Speaker 2: Processed sugar would be any kind of candy.
- 19:52Speaker 2: Basically Right, and I mean it's in a lot it's in a lot of things right Added sugars.
- 19:57Speaker 2: If you look at ingredients and it says high fructose corn syrup, or I mean even just like cane sugar, added this sugar, whatever sugar molasses you know.
- 20:06Speaker 2: And what's sad is they put a list.
- 20:09Speaker 2: Of my gosh, there's gotta be 25, 30 names for sugar and they can just hide it into an ingredient label right.
- 20:17Speaker 2: So you'd be surprised if we walked into a Publix right now and just flipped over the ingredients of pick any candy you want, particularly something that looks like super colorful and strange and crazy, Like a little kid would point out and be like I want that, yeah, totally.
- 20:30Speaker 2: Start reading it.
- 20:31Speaker 2: It's insane.
- 20:32Speaker 2: It's all just processed.
- 20:34Speaker 2: It was man-made.
- 20:35Speaker 2: There's nothing about it that came from the earth.
- 20:37Speaker 2: Shouldn't be in your body, right?
- 20:40Speaker 1: Essentially, Processed carbs and what's that look like.
- 20:42Speaker 2: Processed carbs are things like let's see, let's go through the aisles, right?
- 20:46Speaker 2: I keep coming back to cereal.
- 20:47Speaker 2: Cereal is just a good one, because I hone in on that, that is, it's not heart healthy.
- 20:52Speaker 2: Cheerios are not heart healthy Like they advertise, oh yeah.
- 20:57Speaker 1: They have the heart logo.
- 20:57Speaker 1: That has to be.
- 20:58Speaker 2: It's organic, it says it on the box Must be good, right For all these things.
- 21:03Speaker 2: So you got chips.
- 21:06Speaker 2: Unless you get again, we're talking quality, right.
- 21:08Speaker 2: So if it's a crappier quality Doritos Lay's potato chips, right, these are drenched in seed oils, it's processed carbs, all of that.
- 21:17Speaker 2: If you get a quality tortilla chip, right, Like if you go to a Spanish restaurant and they literally just right there bake it.
- 21:27Speaker 1: Yeah, different stories.
- 21:28Speaker 2: Okay, you got a great company, a Siate, siate brand.
- 21:31Speaker 2: Fantastic, they're chips.
- 21:33Speaker 2: They put it into avocado oil, which is a good oil.
- 21:37Speaker 2: The good oil is avocado, coconut, olive oil, those ones solid, they are not inflammatory to your body.
- 21:44Speaker 2: They're actually really great, great fat source.
- 21:47Speaker 2: All of that right, that's how they make their chips right.
- 21:50Speaker 1: And it's just quality sources.
- 21:53Speaker 2: So, it's a lot of information and I see why people get very confused very easily, because it's like well, you said chips, Siate chips are okay, but these ones aren't, and this one this and this one that by just starting slow of proteins, fruits, vegetables and then finding swaps for most people right, because they're like I love cheez-its, I've got a swap for that right.
- 22:16Speaker 2: What is it?
- 22:17Speaker 2: Oh, why do you like cheez-its?
- 22:19Speaker 1: Oh man, the toasty cheez-its, also the hot and spicy cheez-its, those are good.
- 22:23Speaker 2: Simple mills.
- 22:24Speaker 1: Simple mills.
- 22:25Speaker 1: Simple mills.
- 22:26Speaker 2: I'm gonna be honest, it still has a seed oil in it, but overall quality of ingredients right.
- 22:32Speaker 2: So if you pulled up and we looked at a box of cheez-its and a box of Simple Mills cheddar crackers and you read the ingredients, what I like to tell people is, if you feel like you have to be a scientist to start reading through that ingredient label which you would if you're looking at a cheez-it box you probably should avoid it, right?
- 22:50Speaker 2: Or that goes in your 20%.
- 22:53Speaker 2: Have the cheez-its right.
- 22:55Speaker 2: If that's your vice and you love them so much and that's your thing, that's when you use them right.
- 23:02Speaker 1: What about?
- 23:02Speaker 1: So?
- 23:03Speaker 1: When you say inflammatory for your body, what do you mean by that?
- 23:08Speaker 2: So these foods cause an inflammatory response in the body, right, and it goes all the way down to a cellular level.
- 23:15Speaker 2: So here's the problem when it as it pertains to athletes cause that's kind of our focus of the talk right, let's say you have a baseball pitcher who's injured right, elbow's all jacked up.
- 23:28Speaker 2: He's coming to see you and we just can't get the inflammation down.
- 23:31Speaker 2: You guys are working like crazy, he's icing all the things, but he's going to McDonald's every night, and it's simple, cause it's cheap and easy after practice and all these things.
- 23:40Speaker 2: Right?
- 23:40Speaker 2: He's ingesting the processed carbs, added sugars and the seed oils.
- 23:47Speaker 2: The three categories that I would argue are just my three primary if we're talking about what to avoid when possible and or add to the 20%.
- 23:57Speaker 2: So, if it becomes your 80% which it is for majority of people, if not 90 or more, I mean plenty of Americans are at 100% of just eating this stuff every single time they put something in their mouth.
- 24:08Speaker 2: Right, when you eat it, you ingest it At a cellular level.
- 24:12Speaker 2: Your cells can't get rid of it.
- 24:15Speaker 2: Right, it oxidizes in your system.
- 24:17Speaker 2: When it oxidizes in your system, it causes the inflammation For wherever it could be, because you already have injury or you create problems within your own body and you just become a weaker individual.
- 24:31Speaker 2: That then leads to an injury, right?
- 24:34Speaker 2: So eating the foods that are quality helps your body be quality.
- 24:38Speaker 2: If you eat the foods that are bad, people just think it's as simple as I'm gonna get fat.
- 24:42Speaker 2: Well, yes, you probably will put on weight, you will gain fat because of eating poorly, but it's far beyond that.
- 24:50Speaker 2: It's what it does to your muscular system.
- 24:52Speaker 2: What does it do to your nervous system?
- 24:54Speaker 2: What is it doing cognitively?
- 24:56Speaker 2: Right, we see the decline of just somebody eats a bag of candy for lunch and skips out on proteins and fats and anything else and all of a sudden your blood glucose just drops and you have no energy, you can't think straight, you have a pounding headache.
- 25:12Speaker 2: I think about college.
- 25:13Speaker 2: How many times were people just cramming for tests?
- 25:16Speaker 2: And you're sitting there shooting back espresso shots and red bulls, and all of this you're not eating, but there's a ton of sugar, there's caffeine and your brain just doesn't work right.
- 25:24Speaker 2: So, from that sake, that side of all of that of just eating better to feel better, to look better, to perform better, right All the things, all right.
- 25:39Speaker 2: So I mean that question's a very deep, deep dive question.
- 25:42Speaker 2: We could go very scientific but I think for the average person watching right now like it's a pretty simple version.
- 25:49Speaker 1: It's the.
- 25:49Speaker 1: We hear a lot of antioxidants.
- 25:50Speaker 1: Right, this is great with antioxidants because of the free radical oxidized ions that are being created and exposed in your body from the cellular level, from inflammatory foods Correct?
- 26:02Speaker 1: So then we need antioxidants.
- 26:04Speaker 1: They're gonna be helpful to clear out those free radicals.
- 26:07Speaker 1: Is that correct?
- 26:08Speaker 1: And when, I say free radicals, is that the same thing as like oxidized ions because of the being produced from the inflammatory foods?
- 26:15Speaker 1: Yes right, all right.
- 26:17Speaker 1: So there's an increased amount of these oxidized ions from all these inflammatory, all these foods that cause that.
- 26:24Speaker 1: So we limit that to the 20%, or a try to as much as we can, and then other foods that would be good and antioxidants would be what?
- 26:35Speaker 2: I mean best one.
- 26:37Speaker 2: In my opinion.
- 26:38Speaker 2: We're looking at turmeric which isn't the easiest to go and just eat but, as far as helping with inflammation, it's great you can get it in drink versions.
- 26:48Speaker 2: You can get capsule versions of it you know sort of thing.
- 26:51Speaker 1: What exposure have you had with, like the effectiveness of capsules versus drink?
- 26:55Speaker 1: Version of turmeric.
- 26:57Speaker 2: I don't.
- 26:57Speaker 2: I personally don't see that much of a difference.
- 27:01Speaker 2: Some people will say that if the capsule is open it physically hits your tongue.
- 27:05Speaker 2: It makes a difference.
- 27:08Speaker 1: Honestly, I don't know the studies on it enough to make an opinion on it, but that's not much of a significant difference.
- 27:14Speaker 2: When I take turmeric in a capsule, I feel the difference right, and if I get it in a drink where it's like turmeric with like a lemon juice, some salt, whatever like three natives local here makes a pretty decent, just quick drink juice shot with it in it, right, and so I don't see much of a difference as it pertains to it.
- 27:34Speaker 2: I think just from adding it.
- 27:35Speaker 2: In general, it is going to help Super helpful.
- 27:38Speaker 2: Yeah, I think everybody can be a little bit different there though too, so just tinkering with what works for you.
- 27:42Speaker 2: What about fish oil?
- 27:44Speaker 2: Love fish oil.
- 27:45Speaker 2: Fish oil is great, but again, sourcing needs to be correct, because if you just get like a random fish oil off of Walgreens shelf, like, again it's not quality right.
- 27:54Speaker 2: And that's why we keep coming back to that, for even food, for all the things for your workouts, like it needs to be quality, you know, quality sourced foods, finding the best options you can for yourself.
- 28:06Speaker 1: The DHA and EPA in the fish oils.
- 28:08Speaker 1: Those are the chemicals that are the active ingredients, correct?
- 28:11Speaker 1: So then we want to find fish oils that have high.
- 28:14Speaker 1: The ones that we've been exposed to is Nordic naturals.
- 28:16Speaker 1: Have you-.
- 28:17Speaker 1: Not familiar with them With the concentration of those two chemicals, the DHA and EPA, correct Higher levels of those in each capsule.
- 28:26Speaker 1: So that's what you want to look for.
- 28:28Speaker 2: Yes, because you're gonna.
- 28:29Speaker 2: When you?
- 28:29Speaker 2: Okay, it's the same thing, right?
- 28:30Speaker 2: When you go to the store and you want to buy fish, right?
- 28:33Speaker 2: Do you want to get the one that was farmed in a tank that was created by somebody in like a room this size, but there's hundreds of fish in this like container, right?
- 28:44Speaker 2: Or do you want to go out to the Atlantic a couple what is it?
- 28:48Speaker 2: Not even a mile this way?
- 28:50Speaker 2: and go catch a fish right, and you just want everything to be sourced as best as you can To your ability, whatever that means, whether it's based off of your location right, Because if you live in Iowa, you're not going to catching a fresh fish.
- 29:04Speaker 1: I was just gonna say Iowa.
- 29:05Speaker 1: That's really weird.
- 29:06Speaker 1: We're here, all the places, all the places.
- 29:09Speaker 2: I would be like Iowa, I should have said Illinois because I grew up there and you went to college there.
- 29:13Speaker 1: That would have been a good choice too, it's very similar, but right, so Lot of corn.
- 29:16Speaker 2: That's right.
- 29:17Speaker 2: Lot of corn everywhere, but just as far as sourcing, right.
- 29:22Speaker 2: So you and I would want to go get a fresh catch fish, because it was here we could go.
- 29:26Speaker 2: There's so many shops just right everywhere that you can go and say I just want to get a snapper for lamb and bring it home and pick it up.
- 29:33Speaker 2: It was caught this morning.
- 29:35Speaker 2: Great, that's the best way we can source because we're local.
- 29:37Speaker 2: But somebody else they may need to go to their local store and just say I want to get this because it was wild caught, as opposed to this that is filled with who knows, I've heard some right Very depressing stuff about farm raised fish.
- 29:55Speaker 1: Oh man, it's not good.
- 29:57Speaker 2: Yeah, so you just want the best sources that you can find.
- 30:00Speaker 1: Okay, so anti-inflammatory and antioxidant type sources turmeric fish oils on that list.
- 30:06Speaker 1: Yeah, blueberries, Blueberries I heard, pomegranate is also one of them.
- 30:10Speaker 1: Okay, what are the suggestions?
- 30:14Speaker 2: I personally, I just love fat in general, right.
- 30:16Speaker 2: So a good fatty steak again.
- 30:19Speaker 2: Good quality sourcing wherever you can find it.
- 30:22Speaker 2: Just good fats on meats, a quality dairy Again, everybody's different.
- 30:28Speaker 2: Some people have lactose intolerance, so this is not a let's follow what Brianna is saying and I'm going to go eat all the things Because, again back to that concept of bio-individuality, like I can process cheese totally fine in my body, the next person can't.
- 30:41Speaker 2: This person's good with gluten, this one's not.
- 30:43Speaker 2: But just speaking as a very generalized right.
- 30:47Speaker 2: And then again, the biggest thing is, in my opinion, isn't so much adding to cover up the inflammation.
- 30:56Speaker 2: It's going foundationally to why is that inflammation?
- 30:59Speaker 2: Even there, typically, what do we find?
- 31:03Speaker 2: Seed oils, the sugars and the carbs.
- 31:05Speaker 1: Interesting.
- 31:05Speaker 1: So trying to lower that amount in our normal diet Consistent, because we are what we do consistently, that makes total sense.
- 31:15Speaker 1: So then the explain fats.
- 31:19Speaker 1: Fats aren't bad.
- 31:21Speaker 2: No.
- 31:22Speaker 2: Carbs aren't bad either.
- 31:23Speaker 1: Fats aren't bad either.
- 31:25Speaker 2: Fats are the only way we produce hormones.
- 31:26Speaker 2: A lot of people say, oh, carbs are our preferred body's energy source.
- 31:33Speaker 2: Not false, but your brain prefers fats.
- 31:37Speaker 2: So if you want your brain to keep working, you need fats.
- 31:40Speaker 2: There's a reason our body craves it Because it needs it.
- 31:44Speaker 2: There's a reason your body craves water Because you need it.
- 31:48Speaker 1: What kind of fats are you talking about?
- 31:50Speaker 2: So we're talking about, again, quality sourced fats.
- 31:53Speaker 2: So a really good butter, quality dairy, whole milks, raw milk if you can get it A lot of states it's illegal to get raw milk but if you can find it, fantastic, a higher fatty beef.
- 32:05Speaker 2: So if you can get a good ribeye, tomahawk quality, just ground beef a good bacon.
- 32:14Speaker 2: But again, these are all quality things, because if you're just going to go and buy a piece of bacon, well that could have come from a cow that was just pump full of whatever.
- 32:22Speaker 2: So all quality sources Greek yogurt, great source of fat, dairy in general, just great sources of fat.
- 32:32Speaker 1: Yogurt too probiotic.
- 32:33Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, yes.
- 32:34Speaker 1: What about avocado?
- 32:36Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 32:36Speaker 2: So now let's get away from the dairy and all of that.
- 32:39Speaker 2: So avocado, coconut oil, olive oil seeds.
- 32:45Speaker 1: Nuts like peanuts, walnuts, pecans.
- 32:48Speaker 2: Yeah, because you're getting fat sources from them.
- 32:50Speaker 2: You're also I mean, what's great about those two?
- 32:53Speaker 2: You're also getting protein sources and you're getting carbs.
- 32:57Speaker 2: So, you get the full, full embodiment of the macros.
- 33:01Speaker 1: What carbs would you recommend for people?
- 33:04Speaker 2: So what's funny is people tell me, let's just back up for a second because I think this is funny.
- 33:09Speaker 2: They'll say like, oh, I'm doing keto.
- 33:10Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 33:11Speaker 2: I'm not eating carbs, like okay, did you eat fruits and vegetables today?
- 33:17Speaker 2: They're like well, yeah, like carbs.
- 33:20Speaker 1: Yeah, there's carbs in there.
- 33:21Speaker 2: Those are carbs, sorry, fun fact.
- 33:23Speaker 2: So fruits and vegetables, my best source, favorite source, potatoes, okay.
- 33:30Speaker 2: For me personally.
- 33:31Speaker 1: Regularly or soup potato.
- 33:32Speaker 1: Whatever?
- 33:34Speaker 2: Yes.
- 33:35Speaker 1: Okay.
- 33:36Speaker 2: You're going to get different nutrient properties from both.
- 33:37Speaker 2: But as far as just speaking about carbs, right, carbs potatoes is my favorite source.
- 33:45Speaker 2: Now, again, if we come back and we circle back to the dairy concept that we were just saying, or the seeds, you know, legumes, things like that you're getting the full macro benefit of it.
- 33:56Speaker 2: You're getting the proteins, you're getting the fats, you're getting the carbs.
- 33:59Speaker 2: So, if you ever like, look at the side of the carton of milk.
- 34:02Speaker 2: Right, if you have an eight ounce glass of whole milk, it's about eight grams of protein-ish.
- 34:07Speaker 2: But the fats and carbs are also up there too, right?
- 34:12Speaker 2: So you're getting the full benefit of it.
- 34:15Speaker 2: So, there's plenty of places that you don't think of it being a carb source and it is yeah.
- 34:20Speaker 2: Right, but those are just like the main ones that stick out if you're just trying to do like simplistic from the beginning.
- 34:27Speaker 1: With cholesterol.
- 34:30Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 34:30Speaker 1: Avoiding high cholesterol foods, is that not?
- 34:33Speaker 1: Is that because I don't understand?
- 34:35Speaker 1: There's a lot of studies coming out that it's like a lot of focus has been on these things.
- 34:39Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 34:40Speaker 1: With like cholesterol and also sodium salt.
- 34:43Speaker 1: Yeah, I was going to ask that in a second too.
- 34:44Speaker 1: Yeah, what are your thoughts on cholesterol?
- 34:47Speaker 2: So as a whole again, because we just keep speaking as far as the majority.
- 34:51Speaker 2: Yeah generalities, generalized, yes, sodium and cholesterol are not the problem.
- 34:56Speaker 2: Majority of the time, the studies do show that it does come from eating a crop diet, that's you know.
- 35:04Speaker 2: You see somebody who's diabetic, right, and they tell them well, you should avoid sodium, you should avoid this.
- 35:10Speaker 2: Well, what are you eating?
- 35:11Speaker 2: You're eating crap, right.
- 35:14Speaker 2: And so you look at somebody who then eats really, really healthy, right?
- 35:19Speaker 2: All the things we've been talking about Eats like their ancestors, works out like their ancestors.
- 35:24Speaker 2: And what happens?
- 35:25Speaker 2: Their blood work comes back and their cholesterol is high.
- 35:27Speaker 2: So are they an unhealthy person?
- 35:30Speaker 2: No, by no means, right.
- 35:33Speaker 2: So they're hyper focusing on things, right.
- 35:36Speaker 1: Just the level of cholesterol doesn't indicate success or failure.
- 35:39Speaker 2: I don't think so personally, right.
- 35:41Speaker 2: But now again, everybody's different and I'm not here to tell somebody that their doctor's wrong or anything like that, by no means.
- 35:48Speaker 2: Like listen to your doctor and listen to what they have to say.
- 35:50Speaker 2: This is just a generalized podcast, but as a whole right.
- 35:55Speaker 2: Your body needs cholesterol.
- 35:56Speaker 2: Cholesterol is how you even make your hormones right.
- 35:59Speaker 2: So, as far as cholesterol goes, like yes, I'm here for it, I eat high cholesterol foods daily.
- 36:08Speaker 2: And then as far as sodium goes, we are saltwater creatures Like our bodies are literally saltwater, and you notice it as soon as you take away the salt, you're completely dehydrating your body.
- 36:19Speaker 2: Your body needs it, right.
- 36:21Speaker 2: It needs the sodium, it needs all of the other properties of electrolytes, it needs magnesium, it needs potassium in order to function correctly.
- 36:29Speaker 2: And so you start taking the salt away.
- 36:32Speaker 2: You're taking away a part of what your human body needs just to be up and active daily, let alone being an athlete.
- 36:41Speaker 1: Yeah, besides supplementation, where can we get good sources of magnesium and potassium?
- 36:45Speaker 1: Because, there's sodium in everything right.
- 36:48Speaker 1: There's like a lot of sodium.
- 36:50Speaker 2: Yeah, but even sodium.
- 36:50Speaker 2: Again, we keep coming back to this quality concept.
- 36:53Speaker 2: Right, because you know, just table salt, white table salt.
- 36:57Speaker 2: If we went out to a restaurant like I don't want it, I want a good quality salt, a Himalayan salt.
- 37:01Speaker 2: My favorite is Redmond salt.
- 37:04Speaker 2: Okay, if you were to go to like Sprouts has it, you can get it on, I believe, amazon, whatever.
- 37:10Speaker 1: Interesting.
- 37:11Speaker 2: And it is a quality source of salt to get electrolytes.
- 37:14Speaker 2: For me, being an athlete in Florida, it's hot, we're constantly sweating.
- 37:20Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 37:20Speaker 2: Just to be able to replenish all of those I drink, element which not sponsored by them, but I just love element that much LMNT Flavored packets.
- 37:31Speaker 2: I throw it in my water, I drink it.
- 37:33Speaker 2: You know a couple of those a day and we're punishing and that's packed with sodium magnesium, potassium yeah.
- 37:40Speaker 2: So your overall electrolytes, which you know, prior to what we've done of a purification system in, you know, not even our culture but in our country, of just taking out all of these nutrients, processing it, putting chemicals into it, sending it out through your tap water, whatever, as humans, we just went to a stream which naturally had the electrolytes in it from flowing over rocks, you know, and everything, and you would just drink that.
- 38:05Speaker 2: So you had your natural electrolyte source that way and we don't have that anymore.
- 38:09Speaker 2: So, finding ways that you can get that back into your water, reverse osmosis systems with water purification, you know, like I have an aqua trough at home, still add the element into it so that I'm getting proper sources of it.
- 38:22Speaker 2: I'll take magnesium before I go to bed to just get an extra source of it.
- 38:27Speaker 2: It helps with recovery.
- 38:29Speaker 1: Just a powder.
- 38:30Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, the one I use is called Empirica.
- 38:33Speaker 2: Empirica Trimag is the one that I just happen to like, but there's other great sources out there too.
- 38:40Speaker 2: There's great sources in capsules.
- 38:42Speaker 2: Just doing your due diligence to find quality sources.
- 38:45Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah.
- 38:46Speaker 1: Another question would be let's say okay, with all this stuff being said for people listening, what would a diet look like?
- 38:55Speaker 1: What's like breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks for generalities?
- 38:59Speaker 1: What things do you find yourself recommending to your clientele?
- 39:02Speaker 2: Yeah, so breakfast, I mean, you're looking at things like yogurt bowls, egg omelets.
- 39:08Speaker 1: Whole eggs, yeah, not egg whites, nope.
- 39:10Speaker 2: Okay, you're going to get all your nutrients from the egg, and you and I have had a fun conversation about egg yolks as it pertains to color right Right.
- 39:18Speaker 2: And then you get the orange, the better the better quality source.
- 39:22Speaker 2: So if you go to the store and you get just a general white egg right, you crack it open, you look it's like a neon yellow and that egg came from a chicken that was in a warehouse somewhere, never saw the light of day, eats corn, soy, whatever.
- 39:35Speaker 2: It was never meant to be a vegetarian, a vegan.
- 39:40Speaker 2: They're meant to go roam out on a pasture, eat little bugs and insects, eat some grass, have sunshine, right.
- 39:46Speaker 2: So it's getting the nutrients it needs and it's in a warehouse and never receives the nutrients that it needs.
- 39:51Speaker 1: Same thing with cows.
- 39:52Speaker 1: It's going to be a lot less quality, yeah.
- 39:53Speaker 2: Same thing with cows, right.
- 39:55Speaker 2: So now, if you can get a source where the animal was living the life it was meant to live, you in return will get the nutrients that it had right.
- 40:02Speaker 2: So then again back to the egg.
- 40:04Speaker 2: You crack a white egg.
- 40:05Speaker 2: It's like a neonish yellow yolk.
- 40:07Speaker 2: If you crack an egg, if we go out to a farm right now, out here west, and you go out to, like Cluiston Namokalee, you know, Okeechobee, any of those.
- 40:17Speaker 2: Grab an egg off a farm, crack it bright orange.
- 40:19Speaker 2: That's what we want, right?
- 40:21Speaker 2: So eggs, a quality bacon, If you can get a quality bacon.
- 40:27Speaker 1: Where or what do you recommend?
- 40:30Speaker 2: Well, shout out to my guy, farmer Greg, up at the Hope Sound Farmers Market.
- 40:34Speaker 2: So just finding something that's a quality source.
- 40:37Speaker 2: What I mean by that is as close to its origins as possible, Simple version, right?
- 40:42Speaker 2: So just like we were talking about with the chickens, they should be running around on a pasture somewhere.
- 40:47Speaker 2: That's its origins.
- 40:49Speaker 2: It was meant to do that.
- 40:50Speaker 2: It wasn't meant to be in a warehouse.
- 40:51Speaker 2: We did that as humans.
- 40:53Speaker 2: We put them in a warehouse, right.
- 40:54Speaker 2: So same thing with the bacon.
- 40:56Speaker 2: It should come from a pig who's rolling around in the mud outside living its best little happy pig life.
- 41:00Speaker 2: You know, I don't want a pig that was in a warehouse somewhere just being fed.
- 41:04Speaker 1: Institutionalized.
- 41:05Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly Okay.
- 41:07Speaker 1: So we got breakfast water, of course.
- 41:10Speaker 1: What are you calling some orange?
- 41:13Speaker 2: juice Again If it's 100% yeah, okay.
- 41:15Speaker 2: Now overdoing it, like if you sit there and down a whole gallon like unnecessary ton of sugar, ton of carbs, your body just doesn't need it, right.
- 41:25Speaker 2: But if you're using it for its purposes, absolutely Okay.
- 41:28Speaker 2: Orange juice is great.
- 41:29Speaker 1: So we got.
- 41:30Speaker 2: Natalie's 100%.
- 41:31Speaker 2: Natalie's yeah, remember that, or just squeeze your own oranges, or or or right, Just find just orange juice.
- 41:38Speaker 1: What are your thoughts on tropicanha from a store?
- 41:41Speaker 2: No.
- 41:43Speaker 1: With enhanced vitamin D and calcium.
- 41:46Speaker 2: How are we enhancing it?
- 41:48Speaker 1: Yeah, right, right yeah.
- 41:49Speaker 2: Origins Going back to the origins, Finding just single ingredients and or finding an ingredient list that you can read.
- 41:56Speaker 2: You should be able to read an ingredient list and not be a chemist Correct.
- 42:00Speaker 1: Okay, so we got breakfast.
- 42:01Speaker 2: So let's go snacks, because a lot of people like a morning snack Beef jerky cheese sticks.
- 42:06Speaker 2: I'm trying to picture my pantry right now, what I have going on.
- 42:10Speaker 2: I do a lot of beef sticks Paleo Valley beef sticks Slim.
- 42:13Speaker 2: Jim's my favorite archer oh yeah, slim.
- 42:16Speaker 1: Jim.
- 42:16Speaker 2: No, going to the really yeah, oh yeah, no.
- 42:20Speaker 1: I thought you've been serious about it.
- 42:22Speaker 1: No, slim Jim's, no, again they're just adding a bunch of stuff to it.
- 42:26Speaker 1: Right, yeah, yeah, but for sure, yeah, processed.
- 42:30Speaker 2: If you find quality, like simple mills crackers, if you want to do that with like a cheese on it or fruit, right, take an apple to go, take a banana to go, banana with peanut butter.
- 42:41Speaker 2: You can make another yogurt parfait like a small one.
- 42:44Speaker 2: Yeah, Put some Greek yogurt.
- 42:45Speaker 2: Pick your favorite berries or banana.
- 42:48Speaker 2: Put some raw honey on it.
- 42:50Speaker 2: If you find raw honey locally, even better, because now you're just helping with histamine because it's coming from your local area of what's blooming, right, yeah, so that would be a good snack.
- 43:01Speaker 1: So simple mills is something you recommend for a lot of things.
- 43:05Speaker 2: So siete is my goat.
- 43:06Speaker 2: Oh, siete is another good one for snacking Right.
- 43:09Speaker 2: Siete chips with like guacamole, make a homemade guac or just find you know some avocados.
- 43:14Speaker 2: Those are all really good snacks.
- 43:17Speaker 1: We're out.
- 43:17Speaker 1: We all like avocados in our family.
- 43:19Speaker 1: My kids, my little kiddos they like avocados, yeah, and it looks weird, you can top it on a lot of things.
- 43:25Speaker 1: Right, right Burgers, yup Chicken.
- 43:29Speaker 2: You name it.
- 43:30Speaker 1: Totally yeah.
- 43:30Speaker 2: Eggs in the morning I put it on my eggs.
- 43:33Speaker 1: King raw.
- 43:33Speaker 1: Are you a fan of King raw?
- 43:35Speaker 2: I personally don't like it.
- 43:36Speaker 2: Just taste wise I'll do it if, like my cousin, makes a really good King raw salad.
- 43:41Speaker 2: So like that I'll do.
- 43:42Speaker 2: But if I'm just going to eat for a carb source, I'm going to have rice.
- 43:46Speaker 2: I'll choose rice over it, just, and that's just a personal.
- 43:50Speaker 1: King was not a processed Correct.
- 43:53Speaker 2: Yeah, you're good.
- 43:54Speaker 1: But anyway, avocado and King raw, it's a good mix.
- 43:57Speaker 2: That is a good mix because King was playing.
- 43:59Speaker 1: He was bland, but little avocado on there, some lime.
- 44:03Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 44:03Speaker 2: And then dinner.
- 44:03Speaker 2: I mean get creative.
- 44:04Speaker 2: I like to say focus around a protein, right, pick what protein you want to have tonight.
- 44:09Speaker 2: So, do you want to have beef?
- 44:10Speaker 2: Okay, well, what can you do with beef A ton?
- 44:13Speaker 2: Yeah, make meatballs, make tacos, make burgers, you know, get creative.
- 44:18Speaker 1: Grill it.
- 44:19Speaker 2: Grill it.
- 44:20Speaker 1: What are your thoughts on grilling Charcoal versus, like natural gas, propane?
- 44:24Speaker 2: Um.
- 44:24Speaker 2: I mean.
- 44:27Speaker 1: Because I've heard a lot of things about charcoal.
- 44:29Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm a charcoal guy.
- 44:31Speaker 2: It's kind of a I mean you pick yeah, right, there are studies that show the more you burn your food, the you know cancer agent behind that.
- 44:40Speaker 2: Yeah, and then it you know, as long as you have a green vegetable with it, it'll overlap.
- 44:45Speaker 2: I mean there's.
- 44:45Speaker 2: If you want to find something on the internet to back your theory, it's on the internet, so just go find it, right?
- 44:51Speaker 2: So if you say charcoal is better, you'll find it.
- 44:53Speaker 2: If you say gas girl is better, you'll find it.
- 44:56Speaker 1: Personally, I have a.
- 44:57Speaker 2: Blackstone grill.
- 44:58Speaker 2: I love it, so that's my go to, or just in the kitchen with some butter, olive oil, or I actually keep all of my fat from when I cook the bacon in the air fryer.
- 45:10Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 45:11Speaker 2: So as the drippings of the fat come off the bacon.
- 45:13Speaker 2: I pour that into a mason jar like a good old 1920s 30s housewife and keep that to cook in.
- 45:20Speaker 2: So now you cook your eggs in that in the morning.
- 45:23Speaker 1: Use it as like body lotions.
- 45:24Speaker 1: You can.
- 45:25Speaker 1: I'm just kidding, I know, get wild.
- 45:28Speaker 2: Go get some beef tallow, I mean go crazy with it.
- 45:30Speaker 1: Oh gosh, okay.
- 45:32Speaker 1: So yeah, okay, portion size, what do you?
- 45:35Speaker 1: What's the?
- 45:35Speaker 1: What do you usually recommend your clientele for meats?
- 45:39Speaker 2: beef steak portion Completely individualized.
- 45:41Speaker 2: Okay, completely.
- 45:42Speaker 2: What you need to eat and what I need to eat.
- 45:45Speaker 2: Your how tall?
- 45:46Speaker 1: Six five.
- 45:47Speaker 2: And how much do I roughly Like?
- 45:47Speaker 1: 220.
- 45:49Speaker 2: Okay, so what you're eating and what I'm eating drastically different.
- 45:52Speaker 2: Right, I'm five, three about 130 pounds.
- 45:54Speaker 2: Like we're not eating the same food.
- 45:55Speaker 2: So that would be something that we'd break down together if you're working with me.
- 46:00Speaker 2: But for the average person I mean, that's it genuinely is hard to say Like as far as what it is A lot of people.
- 46:08Speaker 2: I'll tell them once you feel like you've hit 80% of your hunger, right.
- 46:12Speaker 2: Like you've satisfied 80% of it.
- 46:14Speaker 2: Stop there.
- 46:16Speaker 2: See how you feel and then go from there.
- 46:18Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 46:19Speaker 2: You know you don't want to over consume.
- 46:20Speaker 1: Yeah, I've heard that from a lot of people, solid people, you know they're like eat to what you're not stuffed.
- 46:27Speaker 2: Yes.
- 46:27Speaker 1: Maybe, like you know what, I could probably have seconds.
- 46:28Speaker 1: Yes, Okay, you're good, stop.
- 46:30Speaker 2: And then let your digestion what happened?
- 46:32Speaker 2: Kick in.
- 46:33Speaker 1: Yeah, get to work, because then changes happen, right yeah, systemically, and organ and your organs to adapt to that, and then you don't need a professor.
- 46:42Speaker 1: One time he was like congratulations, now you can eat less.
- 46:44Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 46:45Speaker 1: And I was like okay, there you go, it makes sense.
- 46:48Speaker 1: Yeah, um, okay, that's cool, all right.
- 46:50Speaker 1: So we got a good break, a good example of like what, yeah, a good meal plan would look like.
- 46:56Speaker 1: Yeah, for a general, for a general, for a general, for a general, for a general.
- 46:59Speaker 2: Focus as much as you can around protein.
- 47:00Speaker 2: The average person doesn't need enough protein.
- 47:02Speaker 2: So breakfast, lunch, dinner, if you focus around protein and then add up the fats and carbs around it, dress it up a little bit.
- 47:10Speaker 1: Yeah, how about it?
- 47:10Speaker 1: Yeah, what we'll have to do is have you on again to talk about supplements.
- 47:14Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 47:14Speaker 1: Supplementation for high achieving individuals that are motivation driven and enthusiastic.
- 47:20Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 47:20Speaker 1: Further weekend warrior activities, our athletic endeavors.
- 47:23Speaker 2: Yeah, let's do it.
- 47:23Speaker 2: Enhance in performance, just to give in a little bit.
- 47:26Speaker 2: Cell core, cell core, bio sciences is my go to.
- 47:29Speaker 1: First supplement supplement company.
- 47:31Speaker 2: So not a supplement company.
- 47:32Speaker 2: But as far as athletes, I have a couple of supplements on there that are really, really quality for like ATP energy, you know cool.
- 47:41Speaker 1: That all that.
- 47:42Speaker 1: So we'll do you dive in.
- 47:43Speaker 1: That would be a fun, fun one to go, because I have a ton of questions on that.
- 47:45Speaker 1: Yeah, that's cool.
- 47:46Speaker 1: Let's do that one next time.
- 47:47Speaker 1: Well, yeah, I appreciate you coming on.
