    Jul 17 2024

    Send us a Text Message.

    Sometimes nutrition isn't going to be a top priority in your life. Maybe you just had a child, you are moving, you're traveling, you lost your job, etc. and you just need to place your focus elsewhere and put as little energy as possible into your nutrition.

    These times are going to happen and it can be helpful to have a strategy for what we are going to do when they do. So today on the podcast, I am going to discuss how to focus on the bare minimum with nutrition and still make progress and get results (or not slide backwards at least).

    If you struggle with staying consistent with quality nutrition choices when life gets hectic, this episode is a must-listen.

    Is Red Meat Healthy?

    One one end of the spectrum we’ve got people telling us that it causes cancer and heart disease and should be avoided at all costs and then people on the other end of the aisle who say it is a superfood and we should build our diet around it.

    But what is the truth?

    In this episode of the podcast we are going to break down the science of this topic and talk about:

    • Define what red meat is
    • Discuss the nutrition in red meat
    • Potentially problematic ingredients
    • The population based studies looking at red meat and health outcomes
    • Randomized controlled trials looking at red meat and health outcomes
    • Tie it all together and help you take away some important points
