Exercise vs. Nutrition: Which is More Important for Health?03 Jun 202400:18:48

I was having a discussion with a friend recently and a discussion came up that I've had quite a few times before.

 He asked me, which is more important: exercise or nutrition? And in my typical fashion I gave an incredibly long-winded response that didn't provide an answer to the question, but appeared to be helpful nevertheless. 

So on this episode I am going to give you my take on this discussion and explain whether I think exercise or nutrition is more important and why.  I think that you will be surprised to hear what my answer is.

The Truth About "Gut Health"02 Aug 202301:28:02

"Gut Health" has become a very popular trend recently. 

People are claiming that poor gut health is responsible for nearly every health condition imaginable and using this to sell protocols and supplements that claim to fix your gut health. 

How much truth is there to these claims? 

What really is gut health? 

How do you know it you have good gut health? 

How do you know if your gut health can be improved? 

In this episode of the podcast, I am sharing the interview that I did on the When Optimal Meets Practical Podcast with Jordan Lips. 

We go in-depth on all things gut health, it was a great interview and I am confident that you are going to get some value out of it.

How Unrealistic Expectations Will Set You Up for Failure19 Jul 202300:18:03

Welcome back to another episode of the Nutrition Science Podcast. In this episode we are going to be discussing expectations...

This is a very practical episode that was inspired by a conversation that I had with a client, but I think that it will be very helpful for many of you who listen to this show often and are starting to implement some of the changes that I recommend on here. 

Unrealistic expectations is one of the biggest things that I see hold people back and one of the main values of hiring a coach is so that they can help manage those expectations better. 

Make sure you tune into the show to hear more.
