1 00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:03,600 Speaker 1: Hi, I'm Leanne Wood and I'm Susy Burrow. 2 00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:06,520 Speaker 2: And welcome to the Nutrition Couch, a weekly podcast from 3 00:00:06,519 --> 00:00:09,880 Speaker 2: two of Austray's leading dieticians, bringing you everything that is 4 00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:12,879 Speaker 2: new in the world of nutrition, diets and good food 5 00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:16,759 Speaker 2: from the Nutrition Couch. Today, we're chatting about another viral 6 00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:20,120 Speaker 2: TikTok trend, the baked oats, and in our clinic, our 7 00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:22,599 Speaker 2: clients are asking us about the pros and cons of 8 00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:25,720 Speaker 2: intermate and fasting. Now to our most popular segment, the 9 00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:28,920 Speaker 2: supermarket product of the Week, we discuss a new plant 10 00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:31,800 Speaker 2: based frozen meal option, and our final segment with our 11 00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:35,159 Speaker 2: listener question is all about diet soft tricks. Can we 12 00:00:35,240 --> 00:00:37,199 Speaker 2: drink them? And are they actually good for us? And 13 00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:40,800 Speaker 2: how many drinks is too many? The first Suzy, how's 14 00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:41,560 Speaker 2: your week been going? 15 00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:44,760 Speaker 1: My week has been pretty good. We're at the end 16 00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:47,479 Speaker 1: of school holidays now, so I'm sure many parents are 17 00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:50,000 Speaker 1: at the end of their tether with the children. I've 18 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:52,479 Speaker 1: really tried to keep as active as I can with 19 00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:54,279 Speaker 1: the kids, but one thing that tends to go out 20 00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:56,280 Speaker 1: the window when I am doing a lot more of 21 00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:59,440 Speaker 1: my own childcare is my own activity. Because my kids 22 00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:01,680 Speaker 1: are too young to come for a rhyin or come 23 00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:04,080 Speaker 1: for a walk. So I sort of am really looking 24 00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:06,480 Speaker 1: forward to things getting back to normal and packing the 25 00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:09,000 Speaker 1: school lunchboxes and putting those posts up, but getting back 26 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:11,920 Speaker 1: into my own exercise regime. And it's always a good reminder, 27 00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:15,560 Speaker 1: I think to us as clinicians about the challenges busy 28 00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:18,760 Speaker 1: people have when it comes to balancing their own nutrition 29 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:22,000 Speaker 1: and their exercise. And I think it's not that people 30 00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:24,360 Speaker 1: don't want to eat well or exercise, it's just that 31 00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:27,479 Speaker 1: the family demands and work demands can be so great. 32 00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:30,399 Speaker 1: So rest assured. I'm very, very aware that it's a 33 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:32,199 Speaker 1: juggle for all of us and we do the best 34 00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:34,280 Speaker 1: we can with what we can at the time. And 35 00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 1: I for one, am really looking forward to getting out 36 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:38,399 Speaker 1: there and pounding the pavement when the kids are back 37 00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 1: to school. So bring it on the end of the 38 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:43,080 Speaker 1: school holidays, definitely. 39 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:46,040 Speaker 2: And then this week, Susie, what is trending in the media. 40 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 2: It's another TikTok trend And now we've done a few 41 00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:50,000 Speaker 2: TikTok trends on the podcast. You know, I'm all for 42 00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:52,840 Speaker 2: TikTok trends. There's almost bakedotes, Susie, how can we not 43 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:58,080 Speaker 2: talk about bakedotes. They look freakin' delicious, but how healthy 44 00:01:58,240 --> 00:01:59,160 Speaker 2: are they? Actually? 45 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:02,320 Speaker 1: This is an ongoing issue, I think because whenever we 46 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 1: put on our social media any kind of baked product, 47 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:08,360 Speaker 1: whether it's muffins or cookies or in this instance, oats 48 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:10,960 Speaker 1: and TikTok, and I'm paying a lot more attention to TikTok, 49 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:14,919 Speaker 1: and what's going on there is that people go crazy 50 00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:19,120 Speaker 1: for it. We love sweet treats, we love perceived healthy baking, 51 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 1: and so when this came up on my media feeders 52 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:25,080 Speaker 1: and news item, I clicked very quickly and of course 53 00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:28,920 Speaker 1: was lured in by the gorgeous photos of skillets, you know, 54 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:33,840 Speaker 1: with chocolates and maple syrup and banana and runny peanut. 55 00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:37,520 Speaker 1: But are like, I completely understand why it's so popular, 56 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:39,600 Speaker 1: because it's really our love of food and things that 57 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:42,760 Speaker 1: not only taste greate but are visually beautiful. And of 58 00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: course we can curate baked oats, in particular in pans 59 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:49,840 Speaker 1: to look so gorgeous on the breakfast table. So I like, 60 00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,080 Speaker 1: everyone loves a little bit of food porn and I 61 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 1: do like it. But you know, when we put our 62 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 1: nutrition hats on you know, a closer look at the 63 00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 1: ingredient list can reveal that they can be really packed 64 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:02,519 Speaker 1: full of fats, sugars, and as a reference point, if 65 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,400 Speaker 1: you make yourself a bircher bowl or an oat bowl 66 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 1: or in this case, the baked oats and you as 67 00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:10,880 Speaker 1: a few ingredients. You put in some oats, You might 68 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:12,880 Speaker 1: put some yogurt base or a little bit of milk 69 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:15,360 Speaker 1: to blend it. You might then put some nutspread. You 70 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:17,640 Speaker 1: might put a few chop bits to make it look pretty. 71 00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:21,160 Speaker 1: You might then add a maple syrup and then banana like. 72 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 1: You could be looking at sixty to eighty grams of 73 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:26,400 Speaker 1: carbohydrate in a single serve, not the whole tray, just 74 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 1: a single serve, so a small bowl, which would be 75 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:32,680 Speaker 1: pretty close to what some people need for their entire day. 76 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:35,400 Speaker 1: So the issue with these kind of products is when 77 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:37,880 Speaker 1: we super layer all of the ingredients, you get a 78 00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:41,119 Speaker 1: super layered calorie effect, and for most of us, we're 79 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:43,800 Speaker 1: often not burning it off, So just be be mindful. 80 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,240 Speaker 1: These do tend to really be treats as opposed to 81 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:49,240 Speaker 1: daily foods. And if you make it for a beautiful 82 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 1: Instagram picture or for your TikTok, give it away because 83 00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 1: very few of us will be burning off that amount 84 00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 1: of calories and carbohydrates in many of them. But it's 85 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 1: not lost on me. I think they'd be as well. 86 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:04,320 Speaker 2: But a whole skillet of you know, chocchip oats. Let 87 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 2: the reminder, do we regularly eat chocchips for breakfast? Probably not? 88 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 2: Do we regularly encourage chocolate for breakfast? Probably not. That's 89 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:14,080 Speaker 2: probably be the first indication that maybe these are a 90 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:16,280 Speaker 2: bit more of the food porn side of things and 91 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:18,320 Speaker 2: the health side of things. But I have made my 92 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 2: own healthy versions of these, Susie, and I would say 93 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 2: that they're a lot more macro friendly than the trending 94 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 2: ones you've seen on TikTok, where I just use whole 95 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:27,760 Speaker 2: grain rolled oats, I use some skim milk, I use 96 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 2: either banana or eggs to bind it, and then some 97 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 2: fresh berries inside it, and then I bake that up. 98 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 2: I slice it up pretty calorie controlled, around sort of 99 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:37,039 Speaker 2: three fifty calories per slice, and then I'll serve that 100 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:39,039 Speaker 2: with some high protein yogurt, so I'm getting in and 101 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:40,960 Speaker 2: maybe some cheer seats inside that as well to help 102 00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:43,360 Speaker 2: bind the oats. I'm getting in some healthy bats and fibers, 103 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 2: some carbs, and some protein compared to I think a 104 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 2: lot of the recipes onliner oats, milk, honey or maple syrup, 105 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 2: they've got chocchips in there. They're then slitherered in maple syrup, 106 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:54,279 Speaker 2: or there's ice cream on top and there's more chocolate 107 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:56,880 Speaker 2: on top. I've even seen variety SUSI where they have 108 00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 2: this hard chocolate shell. So they're like chocolate old baked oats. 109 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,920 Speaker 2: So they melt down chocolate plus coconut oil together, they 110 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 2: melt it, they pour it over the top of the 111 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:07,479 Speaker 2: baked oats, they put it in the freezer and it 112 00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 2: creates this hard chocolate shell that then you smash your 113 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:13,279 Speaker 2: spoon through like it looks amazing, but at the end 114 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:15,680 Speaker 2: of the day, it's probably more of a dessert than 115 00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:17,479 Speaker 2: it is a really nourishing breakfast option. 116 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:19,719 Speaker 1: Well, when I just put it in the search engine, 117 00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 1: the first thing that came up was whether it was 118 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 1: cake or not. So definitely it assumes the profile more 119 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 1: of cake, and think of that with your portions. But 120 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 1: again I couldn't have said it better myself. If I 121 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,400 Speaker 1: was adjusting it to be a bit healthier, I would 122 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:34,920 Speaker 1: probably opt for berries which you can get frozen at 123 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:37,719 Speaker 1: a good cost price point at the moment to help 124 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:40,360 Speaker 1: lower the carbohydrate content a little bit. There is an 125 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:44,360 Speaker 1: increasing range of lower sugar or syrups that of using 126 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:47,279 Speaker 1: a sweetener instead of sugar itself. So I know maple syrup, 127 00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 1: you can find one with no actual sugar in it, 128 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 1: which makes it a much lighter option. And you know 129 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 1: with the chop bits you can place three or four 130 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 1: or five to present the bowl or the baked tray 131 00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 1: looking beautiful. You don't have to pour the packet in, 132 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:03,800 Speaker 1: which of causes the temptation. So I would say it's 133 00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 1: all about portion control or doing it for a special occasion. 134 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 1: And of course we love to see beautiful food, but 135 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:10,760 Speaker 1: there's always ways we can help the fight a little bit, 136 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 1: and portion control is one of the key things in 137 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:15,719 Speaker 1: using the lower sugar syrups and lower sugar fruits will 138 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:19,480 Speaker 1: instantly reduce the calorie load of those more indulgent baked 139 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:21,320 Speaker 1: oats trays instantly. 140 00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:23,599 Speaker 2: Absolutely, And I don't think anybody really unless you're an 141 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:26,359 Speaker 2: iron man, needs an entire skillet of baked toads for breakfast. 142 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:28,280 Speaker 2: So I think just watch your portion. Slice is on 143 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:30,280 Speaker 2: those things. I prefer to bake them in almost like 144 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:32,479 Speaker 2: a lasagna dish shoesy and then I put them into 145 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:34,720 Speaker 2: like six slices. That's sort of my preference, and then 146 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 2: I get sort of some meal prep for breakfast for 147 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:38,359 Speaker 2: the week, and I can freeze a few portions as well. 148 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:40,480 Speaker 2: I think just making it in a one pan skillet. 149 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:43,200 Speaker 2: I know, skillet's very American things, so maybe for our 150 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:45,800 Speaker 2: Aussie listeners, it's really those like what would you call it, 151 00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:47,360 Speaker 2: like a deep It's like a. 152 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:50,840 Speaker 1: Heavy pan ham I look like a la croussoe pan. 153 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 1: It's that sort of heavy one. And in America, you're right, 154 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 1: they tend to be really black and individual. But I 155 00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:59,280 Speaker 1: like to shut them. I like to serve them in ramikans. 156 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:01,600 Speaker 1: You get like the little remiicans you'd put on a 157 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:03,719 Speaker 1: serving tray. And I think that's another way of doing 158 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:06,280 Speaker 1: it as a portion control for a special occasion or 159 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 1: if you did a healthy version, just keeping your portions 160 00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 1: because I find and actually what we know from the 161 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:13,679 Speaker 1: behavioral science is what we serve or what our food 162 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 1: comes in is what we will eat their the portions. 163 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 1: So if you prepare a whole skillet or a whole pan, 164 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:20,200 Speaker 1: you will eat it, whether it's going back and having 165 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 1: an extra spoon here or there, all the portions that 166 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 1: you serve are bigger, So it really is limiting portions 167 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:27,440 Speaker 1: in any way you can, because human beings are programmed 168 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 1: to eat what food is readily available in front of them. 169 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 2: Absolutely, and just think about bakedotes. If you're using oats 170 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 2: and milk and maple syrup and bananas and then adding 171 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 2: chocolate chips into there, you've got an enormous load of 172 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:41,560 Speaker 2: carbohydrate going in first thing in the morning. If you're 173 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 2: not someone that's very active or hasn't done a lot 174 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:46,400 Speaker 2: of exercise in the morning, that huge load of carbohydrate 175 00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 2: probably isn't going to be burnt off very well. It 176 00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:50,760 Speaker 2: could cause a big energy slump or more sugar craving 177 00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 2: throughout the day. So my recommendation for the bakedoes is 178 00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 2: always to serve them with some protein, so whether that's 179 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 2: some low fat cottage cheese or some high protein yogurt, 180 00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:01,480 Speaker 2: just to help the digest of that carbohydrate to slow 181 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 2: down a little bit. When we serve things with protein 182 00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 2: or fiber, we can actually slow the digestion of the carbohydrate. 183 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 2: So my preference is to always serve some sort of 184 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:11,480 Speaker 2: baked dose with some high protein yogat or another protein 185 00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 2: source to really just optimize I guess the macronutrient profile 186 00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 2: in that meal. 187 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:19,120 Speaker 1: And if you're a cottage cheese lover, if my clients 188 00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:20,880 Speaker 1: come and tell me they love cottage cheese, I'm so 189 00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 1: happy because I can use that in so many foods. 190 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:26,320 Speaker 1: And that's a perfect example. There's also Quark, which is 191 00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 1: that sort of Scandinavian European really tart yoga, which again 192 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:33,200 Speaker 1: is really really high in protein and works really well. 193 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 1: Or as we spoke about on the podcast a few back, 194 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:38,160 Speaker 1: there's a growing range of high protein Greek yogas which 195 00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:42,480 Speaker 1: is fantastic. So that is everything that we know on 196 00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:45,839 Speaker 1: the TikTok Baked Boats. But another thing we wanted to 197 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:47,760 Speaker 1: really chat about it's come up time and time again 198 00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 1: and we've been getting a lot of questions on it 199 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:53,600 Speaker 1: online is about fasting. And I guess when I trained 200 00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 1: more than twenty years ago, we had never heard of fasting, 201 00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:59,839 Speaker 1: not in a positive way anyway. And of course the 202 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,080 Speaker 1: work of doctor Michael Moseley a few years back in 203 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:04,880 Speaker 1: the five and two diets, or the complete shift in 204 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 1: mindset around quite severe calorie restriction to induce some metabolic 205 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 1: changes and support weight loss and positive metabolic change over time. 206 00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:16,880 Speaker 1: And now it's become the norm for clients to come 207 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 1: in and have tried fasting intermittent fasting programs. The common ones, 208 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:22,880 Speaker 1: of course, are as I've just mentioned the five and two, 209 00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 1: where you have two nonconsecutive especially low calorie days five 210 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 1: or six hundred calories, and that appears to have some 211 00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:33,280 Speaker 1: metabolic benefits and secondary benefits based on weight loss. And 212 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:35,720 Speaker 1: then that what I call the bastardized version, which is 213 00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:38,080 Speaker 1: the sixteen eight, which is where you have an extended 214 00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:40,600 Speaker 1: period of time without eating, which again appears to have 215 00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:43,400 Speaker 1: some benefits when it comes to resetting some of those hormones. 216 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:46,680 Speaker 1: There's definitely a number of pros and cons that we 217 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:49,160 Speaker 1: can look at, and I think it's a really good 218 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 1: time for us to discuss it in general, because I 219 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:53,280 Speaker 1: know a lot of you will have questions about it. 220 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:55,200 Speaker 1: Who it's right for, how often we should do it, 221 00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:57,400 Speaker 1: how long we should do it for, should we be 222 00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:00,040 Speaker 1: doing it at all? So? What are your experience, what 223 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 1: are your thoughts on it? 224 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, so let's maybe start with first, who it's not 225 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 2: for so I would say anyone who does a really 226 00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 2: heavy training load, like professional athletes or someone even if 227 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 2: you're training twice a day, into in fasting is not 228 00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 2: for you. If you're a morning training person, into in 229 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:18,320 Speaker 2: fasting isn't for you. You should not be training on an 230 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:20,640 Speaker 2: empty stomach and then fasting for an extended period of 231 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 2: time after your training session as well. You're not doing 232 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:25,800 Speaker 2: your body or your muscles any service in terms of 233 00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 2: the proper recovery that it needs. So look at your 234 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:30,360 Speaker 2: type of training. If you're someone who's an afternoon or 235 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:33,079 Speaker 2: a night training person, maybe some in fasting might be 236 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 2: okay for you. It's absolutely not appropriate for pregnancy or breastfeeding. 237 00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:39,679 Speaker 2: And anyone who has a background as an eating disorder 238 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:43,360 Speaker 2: or with disordered eating or restrictive style eating, absolutely not 239 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 2: for you as well, because into ind fasting can very 240 00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 2: quickly lead to basically just restrictions and down that path 241 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:51,480 Speaker 2: of disordered eating. So they're the people that I would 242 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:56,240 Speaker 2: say definitely not for. If you are a diabetic on inchulin, 243 00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:59,439 Speaker 2: you could do some into in fasting, but absolutely important 244 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:02,440 Speaker 2: to link with your healthcare profession or to be regularly 245 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:04,679 Speaker 2: checking your blood sugar levels throughout the day as well. 246 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:05,560 Speaker 1: Anyone else. 247 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:08,080 Speaker 2: You could probably think that perhaps it wouldn't be appropriate 248 00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:08,960 Speaker 2: for SUSI. 249 00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 1: I'm with you. I think for anyone who has a 250 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:14,320 Speaker 1: history of disordered eating and extreme dieting, promoting the five 251 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:17,959 Speaker 1: to two has a number of negative side effects soschologically 252 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:20,440 Speaker 1: to try and adhere to that level of restriction. Now, 253 00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:23,120 Speaker 1: let's be very clear when we look at the data, 254 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:26,480 Speaker 1: the evidence base around intermittent fasting is primarily around the 255 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 1: lower calorie days. So when we take a look at 256 00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 1: the research, it was primarily for metabolic benefits, so resetting 257 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:36,319 Speaker 1: a number of those pro inflammatory hormones helping to reduce cholesterol, 258 00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 1: blood pleasure, insulin levels over time, and the weight loss 259 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 1: is secondary as the body gets a bit of a kickstart. 260 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:45,440 Speaker 1: So a five hundred calorie day is really difficult to follow. 261 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:49,120 Speaker 1: So it would be for example, as piccolo coffee, a 262 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 1: hard boiled egg and some leafy green salad vegetables and 263 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:54,600 Speaker 1: then just seventy to one hundred grams of chicken breast 264 00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 1: or whitefish with again a couple of small, plain, nonstarchy veggies. 265 00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:02,080 Speaker 1: So it is really tight restriction. It is not easy 266 00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:04,680 Speaker 1: to do, and so anyone who has a history of 267 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:08,000 Speaker 1: dieting and finds that restriction model can be setting them 268 00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:11,800 Speaker 1: off for a period of dieting is really contraindicated. And 269 00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 1: for anyone with especially high energy demands, busy mums, people 270 00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:18,800 Speaker 1: who are trying to work, work out, juggle jobs, juggle 271 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:23,040 Speaker 1: young children, anyone who is training for an hour or 272 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 1: more a day, who has a very active job, I 273 00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:29,600 Speaker 1: would straight away say it's contraindicated. Now I do use it, 274 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:33,040 Speaker 1: but I either use it with people who are very 275 00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,320 Speaker 1: keen to try it and don't have that history of dieting, 276 00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:38,040 Speaker 1: or people who need to kind of reset their diet 277 00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:40,960 Speaker 1: so they're used to chronically overeating and having a low 278 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 1: calorie day can be a great way to reset them 279 00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:45,800 Speaker 1: and remind them what it's like to be hungry. And 280 00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:47,840 Speaker 1: it can also work really well for people who have 281 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 1: very sedentary lifestyles because they're not getting that hunger and 282 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 1: they're not burning a lot of calories. Now, a lot 283 00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:56,160 Speaker 1: of clients prefer the sixteen eight, which is where you 284 00:12:56,160 --> 00:13:00,719 Speaker 1: have sixteen hours overnight, usually without food, and what that 285 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 1: does is again try and get you back in touch 286 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 1: with your natural hunger signals. It means that you naturally 287 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:09,320 Speaker 1: control calories because you're eating in a smaller period of time, 288 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:11,600 Speaker 1: and that is a raging that you would be encouraged 289 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 1: to do most of the time, So it's not something 290 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:15,400 Speaker 1: you dip in and out of the way you would 291 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:17,640 Speaker 1: the five two. And the issue I have with that 292 00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:19,959 Speaker 1: is that I find people get used to it over time, 293 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:23,440 Speaker 1: and while they may get results initially, those results tend 294 00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:25,760 Speaker 1: to reduce over time as their body gets used to it. 295 00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:28,640 Speaker 1: And I think if you're hungry in the morning, it's 296 00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:30,800 Speaker 1: not a good idea to try and avoid eating breakfast 297 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:32,960 Speaker 1: because you're trying to get the benefits of fasting. So 298 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 1: I would really use it why it's working, but when 299 00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:38,719 Speaker 1: it stops, I would not feel bad about going back 300 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:41,040 Speaker 1: to eating breakfast when you're actually hungry in the morning. 301 00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:43,720 Speaker 1: And so I sort of use it as a tool 302 00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 1: to get people over a weight loss hurdle, to perhaps 303 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:49,520 Speaker 1: get them back in touch with their hunger if they 304 00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:51,160 Speaker 1: want to try it, if it fits in with a 305 00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:54,319 Speaker 1: sedentary lifestyle. But it's not something I prescribe for everyone. 306 00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:56,600 Speaker 1: It's the case with diets. It's not a one size 307 00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:58,880 Speaker 1: fits all model, and there's got to be a reason 308 00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:01,160 Speaker 1: and a benefit of so with doing it rather than 309 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:02,640 Speaker 1: a blanket prescription. 310 00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 2: For all people completely agree, and I've actually I've never 311 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:08,200 Speaker 2: prescribed the five two into in fasting. Correct me if 312 00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:10,960 Speaker 2: I'm wrong. But the research is really in that obese 313 00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 2: population with metabolic conditions, isn't it that that research is 314 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:14,960 Speaker 2: really strong in. 315 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:19,440 Speaker 1: It's interesting with fasting because the cellular benefits that come 316 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 1: from extended periods of time without food of anti aging 317 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:25,760 Speaker 1: benefit to all of us. Generally, it helps to keep 318 00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:28,920 Speaker 1: our hormones like intil and under control. But you're right 319 00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:31,280 Speaker 1: when we look at the research, it's generally done with 320 00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:35,280 Speaker 1: overweight and obese people who are specifically looking for those 321 00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:39,240 Speaker 1: very pronounced health related benefits. It was never written as 322 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:42,200 Speaker 1: a weight loss program. The weight loss effects are secondary 323 00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:46,400 Speaker 1: to that. So people will say, oh, it's an anti 324 00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:50,520 Speaker 1: aging strategy. Yes, to a certain extent. But we've known 325 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:53,880 Speaker 1: for a long time that human beings eat too often 326 00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:57,360 Speaker 1: to allow those hormones to get back to baseline levels. 327 00:14:57,440 --> 00:14:59,960 Speaker 1: We don't go generally for longer than a few hours 328 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:02,600 Speaker 1: without eating when the human body really can tolerate four 329 00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 1: or five even longer without bigger meals, or if you 330 00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:07,960 Speaker 1: do eat more at night. Again, you probably don't need 331 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 1: to eat a bit later in the day, which is 332 00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:13,000 Speaker 1: what we've discussed before. But our lifestyle has meant that 333 00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:18,040 Speaker 1: fasting can be a really powerful way to balance out 334 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:21,480 Speaker 1: the extras that go into our day to day life. So, 335 00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:24,800 Speaker 1: but you're right, it is generally based for those metabolic benefits, 336 00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:27,080 Speaker 1: and the weight loss can be secondary. But I think 337 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:29,160 Speaker 1: leanne it comes back to what we talk about A lot. 338 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:32,440 Speaker 1: A lot of stuff with metabolism comes down to change, 339 00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:35,960 Speaker 1: and what fasting regimes can do is create options for 340 00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:39,240 Speaker 1: change and give something a simple approach people can stick 341 00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:41,520 Speaker 1: to without having to balance out and count calories at 342 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:44,120 Speaker 1: every single meal. So for its simplicity, it can be 343 00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:45,440 Speaker 1: a really powerful strategy. 344 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:48,120 Speaker 2: Absolutely, And as I was saying, I've never actually used 345 00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 2: five to two for my clients, but I have regularly 346 00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:54,120 Speaker 2: used something like sixteen eight or ten for my clients. 347 00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:55,760 Speaker 2: To that add up, I'm not very good to massive 348 00:15:56,640 --> 00:16:01,560 Speaker 2: fourteen ten for my clients. I must say, thank God 349 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:03,800 Speaker 2: for calculators. This is all I can say. But with 350 00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:06,040 Speaker 2: the five two I do find that that's overly restricted 351 00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:07,800 Speaker 2: because I only work with females and a lot of 352 00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:10,240 Speaker 2: my females or some of them do have a background 353 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:13,040 Speaker 2: of just calorie deprivation and some sort of restriction. I 354 00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 2: find the five too, is just a bit too hardcore 355 00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:17,840 Speaker 2: for my liking. I don't tend to use the six' 356 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:20,200 Speaker 2: eight in terms of the rigidity of the. Time LIKE 357 00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:22,320 Speaker 2: i say to my, clients if you wake, up they're 358 00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:24,040 Speaker 2: not training in the, morning so that's. Fine they don't 359 00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:26,440 Speaker 2: feel hungry in the. Morning some of my clients have 360 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 2: been flight, attendants or they're lawyers who are working like 361 00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:32,000 Speaker 2: fourteen or surgeons sixteen our, days they don't have time 362 00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:34,280 Speaker 2: to eat. Breakfast they're not. Hungry they're in at work 363 00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:35,920 Speaker 2: at you, know maybe four or five am in the. 364 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:38,400 Speaker 2: MORNING i, say eat when you're. Hungry, so whether that's 365 00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:40,960 Speaker 2: after a twelve hour fast or whether that's after sixteen hour. 366 00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:43,120 Speaker 2: FAST i don't get caught up in the numbers or the, 367 00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 2: rigidity WHICH i feel like unravels a lot of. People, 368 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:49,040 Speaker 2: Susie so sixteen. Eight i've seen people, literally WHEN i 369 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:51,080 Speaker 2: used to work at the hospital three years, ago this 370 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 2: was very popular. FASTING i would see nurses like counting 371 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:56,320 Speaker 2: down the seconds till twelve pm until they could, eat 372 00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:58,720 Speaker 2: AND i was, like that's just, ridiculous because you get 373 00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:01,000 Speaker 2: to the point where you feel so you're hungry that 374 00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:03,120 Speaker 2: you almost feel, sick and then when you do start, 375 00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:06,240 Speaker 2: eating you're just you're inhaling your, food which is not 376 00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:09,200 Speaker 2: good for. Anyone and, again the weightless benefits of fasting 377 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:12,360 Speaker 2: are going to come from generally eating in a smaller 378 00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:15,880 Speaker 2: eating window time, frame therefore eating less, food therefore eating 379 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:18,240 Speaker 2: less calories than losing. Weight but if you're going to 380 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:21,040 Speaker 2: stuff yourself stupid because you've just fasted for an hour 381 00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:24,439 Speaker 2: or two longer than you probably should have to create 382 00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:27,280 Speaker 2: that just starvation, effect you're then going to eat three 383 00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:29,439 Speaker 2: times as much as you normally would at lunchtime and 384 00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:32,760 Speaker 2: undo all the all the benefits of the calorie deficit 385 00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:34,720 Speaker 2: that you may have. Had SO i really think that 386 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:38,719 Speaker 2: don't be too rigid around the actual time. Frame anything 387 00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:40,520 Speaker 2: more than a twelve hour fast has been shown in 388 00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:43,040 Speaker 2: the research to be, beneficial because as you, said most 389 00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:45,520 Speaker 2: of us will graze long into the, night wake, up 390 00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:47,439 Speaker 2: and eat first thing in the, morning and we're barely 391 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:50,160 Speaker 2: getting in a twelve hour fast if that when that 392 00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 2: was never even considered, fasting you know how many years 393 00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:55,080 Speaker 2: ago was that you need that was just considered a 394 00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:58,160 Speaker 2: normal eating. Pattern we stopped eating dinner around six or seven. 395 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:00,360 Speaker 2: O'clock we didn't have, dessert we didn't graze and Watch 396 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:02,400 Speaker 2: netflix for the rest of the. Night we woke up 397 00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:04,840 Speaker 2: maybe you, know had breakfast when we kind of felt. 398 00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:07,679 Speaker 2: Hungry these, days it's like we've been conditioned to just 399 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:10,200 Speaker 2: eat the minute that we wake up and eat right 400 00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:12,399 Speaker 2: until we go to. Bed we're just eating far too. 401 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:14,960 Speaker 2: Much we're eating far too. Often and there is a 402 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:17,840 Speaker 2: small amount of, research mostly in animal, STUDIES i will, 403 00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:20,240 Speaker 2: admit But i'm really excited to see whether research goes 404 00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:22,840 Speaker 2: in the future around some gut health benefits as. Well for, 405 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:25,680 Speaker 2: it extended periods of, fasting because you're just giving your 406 00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:28,119 Speaker 2: gut time to, rest and for a lot of people 407 00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:31,760 Speaker 2: with irrito a bound gut health problems and, intolerances constantly 408 00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:34,200 Speaker 2: putting food into your gut and overloading it before it's 409 00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:37,160 Speaker 2: had time to process undigest what's there is not going 410 00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:38,760 Speaker 2: to do you any. Benefits SO i do use a 411 00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:41,400 Speaker 2: little bit of intimate fasting from a gut health strategy 412 00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:43,919 Speaker 2: perspective with my clients as. Well i'll admit that the 413 00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:46,679 Speaker 2: science isn't quite there. Yet it's quite strong in animal, 414 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:48,840 Speaker 2: studies but we really would like to see more human 415 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:51,439 Speaker 2: studies in terms of gut health benefits and. Fasting But 416 00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:53,520 Speaker 2: i'm definitely a. FAN i just don't think it needs 417 00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:56,520 Speaker 2: to come with the rigidity of the sixteen eight time 418 00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:58,879 Speaker 2: frame or the five is. TOO i just think learning 419 00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:01,480 Speaker 2: to listen to your body more should be the biggest 420 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:03,440 Speaker 2: thing that we're really looking for in terms of into 421 00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:05,040 Speaker 2: ad fasting and learning to eat when we're. 422 00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:09,080 Speaker 1: HUNGRY i have to laugh because you said with, lawyers 423 00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:12,159 Speaker 1: because WHEN i think about, IT i think that the 424 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:14,760 Speaker 1: Times i've used the five, two and Primarily i'll use 425 00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:16,920 Speaker 1: it to get people off a, plateau so they might 426 00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 1: have been reducing calories or increasing, activity and then all 427 00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:22,000 Speaker 1: of a sudden we might have lost five seventeen kilos 428 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:24,120 Speaker 1: and they're plat. Owed AND i sometimes use it as 429 00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:27,040 Speaker 1: a little trying to break that cycle and just do 430 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:29,440 Speaker 1: two lighter, days and often in line we've been they're less. 431 00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:32,920 Speaker 1: Active BUT i think a significant proportion of those. People 432 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:36,159 Speaker 1: one's a contact, tracer so she works In brisbane and 433 00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:39,159 Speaker 1: she'll spend many hours sitting, down so she'll often fast 434 00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:41,200 Speaker 1: on those days because she finds it keeps her hunger 435 00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:43,439 Speaker 1: away a little bit now she's used to. It and. 436 00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:45,679 Speaker 1: LAWYERS i do use it with my lawyers who are 437 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:47,840 Speaker 1: doing those really really long days and they can't be, 438 00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:50,080 Speaker 1: active and they find it easy to keep their focus 439 00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:53,000 Speaker 1: up if they keep off heavy food through the. Days 440 00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:55,080 Speaker 1: so that made me laugh a little bit because their 441 00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 1: lifestyle can be so sedentary when they're working on a big. 442 00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:01,000 Speaker 1: Case but definitely it's a stratage THAT i. Use it's 443 00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:03,840 Speaker 1: not a default prescription THAT i. Give And i'm like, 444 00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:05,480 Speaker 1: You i'm trying to get people to at least have 445 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:08,919 Speaker 1: twelve hours overnight without. Food and probably the group THAT 446 00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:11,960 Speaker 1: i may use sixteen eight with is my insulin resistant 447 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,679 Speaker 1: group who don't feel any hunger in the, morning and 448 00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:17,359 Speaker 1: so AS i try and reprogram their hunger and shift it, 449 00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:20,000 Speaker 1: EARLIER i may, say, LOOK i want you to try 450 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:22,640 Speaker 1: and extend that fast overnight just to try and get 451 00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 1: back in touch with those appetite signals and get you, 452 00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:27,960 Speaker 1: hungry and then over Time i'll reduce it back down 453 00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:32,360 Speaker 1: to maybe more like twelve to, fourteen which is, sustainable because, 454 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:35,040 Speaker 1: yeah it's about fitting the right approach to different people 455 00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 1: and in terms of longevity benefits and health. Benefits it's 456 00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:43,200 Speaker 1: interesting you spoke about studies with rats or with, primates 457 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:45,400 Speaker 1: because a lot of the early research in fasting did 458 00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:49,440 Speaker 1: come from primate studies which showed that if monkeys had 459 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:54,120 Speaker 1: twenty five percent less calories over, time might not be exactly, 460 00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:57,000 Speaker 1: right so just humor me, there but a significant calorie 461 00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 1: reduction over a long period of time they lived, longer 462 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:02,560 Speaker 1: so it seemed to have benefits from a cell health. 463 00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:05,400 Speaker 1: Perspective and if you look at what humans are, eating 464 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:08,080 Speaker 1: what an average calorie in take of what two thousand 465 00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:10,600 Speaker 1: and two and a half thousand a, day which is 466 00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:12,639 Speaker 1: when we're in positive weight, gain and a lot of 467 00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:15,399 Speaker 1: us are and overweight as. Adults, again if we reduce 468 00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:18,239 Speaker 1: that down to that twenty five, percent even a bit more, 469 00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:21,360 Speaker 1: reduction we too would get those benefits without fully starving. 470 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 1: Ourselves so it's safe to say that giving longer time 471 00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:27,359 Speaker 1: overnight without food and keeping our calories a bit lower 472 00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:29,240 Speaker 1: than they are rather than being in a constant weight 473 00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:31,679 Speaker 1: gain cycle will be very powerful when it comes to 474 00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:33,879 Speaker 1: antiaging for all of us without having to go to 475 00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:35,080 Speaker 1: very extreme. 476 00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:38,359 Speaker 2: Regimes, absolutely and you know WHEN i was our Unis 477 00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 2: is ten plus years. Ago, now we were really taught 478 00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:42,960 Speaker 2: that breakfast was one of the most important meals of the. 479 00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:44,639 Speaker 2: Day you, know it helps with, focus it helps with, 480 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:46,879 Speaker 2: energy you set yourself up well for the rest of the. 481 00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:48,840 Speaker 2: Day if you don't eat, breakfast you end up overeating 482 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:51,280 Speaker 2: at other. Meals we know that now that that's simply 483 00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:53,879 Speaker 2: not the. Case of, course if you're a child or a, 484 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:57,000 Speaker 2: teenager we absolutely encourage. Breakfast it has been shown to 485 00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:59,880 Speaker 2: be better for you, know attention and, learning and that's 486 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 2: thing at school and at. University but for, adults if 487 00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:05,360 Speaker 2: you wake up and you're genuinely not, hungry there's absolutely 488 00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:07,679 Speaker 2: no need to. Eat breakfast doesn't need to be the 489 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:09,760 Speaker 2: most important meal of the. Day SO i really do 490 00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:12,520 Speaker 2: encourage you to just tune into your NATURAL i guess 491 00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 2: hunger and fullness, signals particularly if you've had a big, 492 00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:16,879 Speaker 2: weekend or you've had a big, night or you've had 493 00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:19,320 Speaker 2: a really heavy meal the night. Before if you're waking 494 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:21,680 Speaker 2: up and you're not feeling, hungry then listen and honor 495 00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:24,080 Speaker 2: those hungry signals in your body and wait till you 496 00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:26,719 Speaker 2: feel hungry to. Eat it doesn't necessarily have to be 497 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:28,960 Speaker 2: a sixteen hour, fast which means you need to get 498 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:32,000 Speaker 2: to eleven, am twelve, pm one. Pm but just if 499 00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:33,720 Speaker 2: you can hold off on your normal, breakfast which is 500 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:35,919 Speaker 2: normally at six, am and have it at nine o'clock 501 00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 2: when you actually feel hungry at nine, o'clock that's going 502 00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 2: to do you the world of good just in terms 503 00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:43,400 Speaker 2: of tuning and listening to your, body let alone any 504 00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:46,199 Speaker 2: sort of benefits that fasting might. Provide SO i think 505 00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:48,760 Speaker 2: that's probably the biggest, takeaway is learning to listen to 506 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:51,800 Speaker 2: our bodies and feeding it when it's genuinely, hungry not 507 00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:54,400 Speaker 2: because everybody else is eating around, us or not because 508 00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:56,480 Speaker 2: the clock says we should, eat or not just because 509 00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:58,919 Speaker 2: it's a bad, habit and we programmed ourselves into doing that. 510 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:03,159 Speaker 1: And having that research, switch particularly after the, weekends if 511 00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:05,720 Speaker 1: you are routinely having a lot of calories over the, 512 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:08,720 Speaker 1: weekend having a light night on A sunday night or 513 00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:11,159 Speaker 1: light day on A, monday or having that sort of 514 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 1: extended period of time much longer than you normally have without, 515 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:15,560 Speaker 1: eating would do your body the world of, good. 516 00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:19,160 Speaker 2: Definitely and Then, suzi that brings us to our most popular, 517 00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:22,760 Speaker 2: segment our new and exciting supermarket. Products and this week 518 00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:26,040 Speaker 2: you found us a new plant based frozen. Meal so 519 00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:29,680 Speaker 2: the brand Is abundance feel Good, food and you found 520 00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:31,919 Speaker 2: A japanese. Sturfry let us know about this, One. 521 00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:34,440 Speaker 1: Suzi. NOW i was so excited about this product BECAUSE 522 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:36,040 Speaker 1: i saw an ad for. IT i think it was In. 523 00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:38,240 Speaker 1: Woolies it was on one of those kind of screens 524 00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 1: where they highlight new. Products AND i was so excited 525 00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:45,080 Speaker 1: BECAUSE i, thought, great a new sturfry. Option this one 526 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:49,120 Speaker 1: specifically we're talking about. Today it's called, sorry The Abundance Japanese, 527 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:51,359 Speaker 1: sturfry but they're in the frozen section and there's several 528 00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:55,120 Speaker 1: different varieties and it's so colorful and pretty and it looked, 529 00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:57,639 Speaker 1: great AND i, thought, great another convenient food that busy 530 00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:00,399 Speaker 1: people can grab and have more. VEGGIES i was a 531 00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:04,560 Speaker 1: little bit disappointed because WHEN i actually took a closer 532 00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:07,800 Speaker 1: look at, it it looked really. Good the ingredient, list 533 00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:10,600 Speaker 1: like the vegetables come in, first with, beans, mushrooms and 534 00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:13,800 Speaker 1: a marmade, cabbage onion. Capsicum it doesn't actually have the 535 00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:16,560 Speaker 1: percentage on there which it normally, would AND i believe 536 00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:19,040 Speaker 1: probably should have it on. There how much actual vegetable, 537 00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:22,600 Speaker 1: component and then the next ingredient after the, veggies was 538 00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:26,160 Speaker 1: cooked chimmering. Noodles, now WHEN i look at the actual nutritional, 539 00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:29,000 Speaker 1: panel that was giving me twelve grams of protein per, 540 00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 1: serve which is quite reasonable for a veggie based, dish 541 00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:35,119 Speaker 1: almost ten grams of, fat which is not insignificant for 542 00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:37,760 Speaker 1: a veggie based, Dish but it was a massive fifty 543 00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:41,840 Speaker 1: four grams of, carbohydrate admittedly five almost five grams of dietary, 544 00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:46,000 Speaker 1: fiber but then twelve hundred milligrams of. Sodium so what's, 545 00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:49,200 Speaker 1: happening to the best of my, understanding is, that, yes 546 00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:51,800 Speaker 1: this is a frozen product that has quite a lot of, 547 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,960 Speaker 1: vegetables but there's also quite a lot of carbi noodles in, 548 00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:56,960 Speaker 1: it and then they're going pretty heavy with the sauce 549 00:24:57,040 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 1: to obviously flavor it, up and that's really bumping UP usdia. Level, 550 00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:03,080 Speaker 1: now as a reference, point we really encourage people to 551 00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:05,560 Speaker 1: not have more than two thousand milligrams of sodium per, 552 00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:08,920 Speaker 1: Day so to have more than half that in a 553 00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:13,000 Speaker 1: vegetable based dish with fifty three grams of, carbohydrate it's 554 00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:15,800 Speaker 1: actually not a PRODUCT i would probably. Recommend i'm a 555 00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:18,679 Speaker 1: bit disappointed because it promised so, much and WHEN i 556 00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:20,680 Speaker 1: took a close, LOOK i just thought it was pretty, 557 00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:23,800 Speaker 1: carby quite a lot of, sodium and perhaps not as 558 00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:25,520 Speaker 1: healthy AS i would really like it to be for 559 00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:26,480 Speaker 1: a vegetable based. 560 00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:29,360 Speaker 2: Product, absolutely when you sent me, THAT i was quite. 561 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:32,320 Speaker 2: Excited the packaging looked, Amazing it looked, fresh it looked. 562 00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:34,520 Speaker 2: Healthy it was a vegan based. OPS i thought. Great 563 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:37,560 Speaker 2: in front of the package Says japanese stir fry with turmeric, 564 00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:41,040 Speaker 2: noodles ginger mushrooms at amami and A japanese seven, spice 565 00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:43,720 Speaker 2: AND i, thought. Amazing that sounds. Great but as you, 566 00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:48,080 Speaker 2: mentioned the carbohydrate loaders is quite. Heavy the protein, unfortunately 567 00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:51,120 Speaker 2: is quite. Low from the, PHOTO i think we established 568 00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:53,360 Speaker 2: that these are probably, mushrooms but to me it looked 569 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:55,720 Speaker 2: like tastes of vegetable protein or a bit of tofu or. 570 00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:58,000 Speaker 2: Something SO i would ideally like to see a little 571 00:25:58,000 --> 00:25:59,920 Speaker 2: bit more of a boost in terms of. Protein up 572 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:02,399 Speaker 2: is that fifteen to twenty grams or a plant based. 573 00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:05,040 Speaker 2: Meal it's got a monitor around a fat in it 574 00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:07,520 Speaker 2: close to ten grams and the, fiber as we, said it's, 575 00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:09,080 Speaker 2: Awesome but if you take a. Closer look at the 576 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,480 Speaker 2: back of the. Packaging it's got two serves of vegetables 577 00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:14,600 Speaker 2: in this, meal AND i mean for a plant based. 578 00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:16,879 Speaker 2: Meal when we're looking at you, know a minimum of 579 00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:19,639 Speaker 2: five serves of veggies a, DAY, susi if not seven 580 00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:24,080 Speaker 2: eight nine serves for honestly good gut. Heals it's, yeah it's, 581 00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:25,639 Speaker 2: underrated isn't. It really it. 582 00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:28,040 Speaker 1: Is it looks so healthy and, pretty and that's why 583 00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:30,280 Speaker 1: we were both so drawn into. It SO i think 584 00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:32,520 Speaker 1: the take home message is that just because the product 585 00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:36,119 Speaker 1: looks healthy doesn't always mean that it. Is and sometimes 586 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:38,080 Speaker 1: a quick scan of that ingredient, list and when we 587 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:39,960 Speaker 1: look at this ingredient, list you can see there's quite 588 00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:43,560 Speaker 1: a lot of. Additives there's somematted, sugars there's someatted, salts there's. Thickness, 589 00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:46,000 Speaker 1: now if you're cooking a veggie sturf right at, home 590 00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:48,159 Speaker 1: you might have some extra viginon olive oil in the 591 00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:50,760 Speaker 1: base of your. Pan you might have tons of, veggies 592 00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:52,920 Speaker 1: even if you're trying to keep it plant, based or 593 00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:55,199 Speaker 1: you might throw in some tofu or some prawns to 594 00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:57,520 Speaker 1: give you some extra. Protein and then ALL i would 595 00:26:57,520 --> 00:26:59,280 Speaker 1: add is a little bit of soy, sauce there wouldn't 596 00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 1: be any, thickness it wouldn't be any extra. Sugars so you, 597 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:04,160 Speaker 1: know you can eat really clean at home with very 598 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:07,439 Speaker 1: simple products like a plain veggie stir fry and season 599 00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:10,119 Speaker 1: it up to taste amazing without needing to buy a 600 00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:13,439 Speaker 1: process food which has got more additives in it and 601 00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:15,520 Speaker 1: more carbohydrate than you would have if you had just 602 00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:17,960 Speaker 1: made something your. Cell and, yeah just because it looks 603 00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:21,119 Speaker 1: really fresh and healthy doesn't unfortunately always mean that it, 604 00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:22,080 Speaker 1: is so we do need to be. 605 00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:24,960 Speaker 2: Careful and the other thing is it's actually quite lower, 606 00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:27,760 Speaker 2: calorie like it's three hundred and sixty calories for the, 607 00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:30,760 Speaker 2: serving but that comes with you, know fifty four grams of. 608 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:33,560 Speaker 2: Carbohydrates so if you're making this yourself at, home which 609 00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:35,320 Speaker 2: would be super simple to, DO i think you could 610 00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:37,960 Speaker 2: throw this together in twenty minutes or. LESS i would 611 00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:40,360 Speaker 2: have the. NOODLE i would double the. Protein so whether 612 00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:42,479 Speaker 2: you're doubling the atamamae beans or adding in a bit 613 00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:44,919 Speaker 2: of tofu or a bit of you, know lean animal 614 00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:47,840 Speaker 2: protein prawns or fish or chicken As susi, mentioned to 615 00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:51,040 Speaker 2: boost that, protein and really doubling the amount of veggies 616 00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:52,800 Speaker 2: in that and lightening up the source of. IT i 617 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:55,639 Speaker 2: think you'd have a wonderful nourishing meal. Yourself BUT i 618 00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:57,840 Speaker 2: guess frozen meals. Are they are. Important it's not the 619 00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:00,879 Speaker 2: worst frozen meal on the, market, absolutely but it probably 620 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:02,320 Speaker 2: was a bit of a. LETDOWN i really did think 621 00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:04,120 Speaker 2: this was SOMETHING i was going to, recommend give it five, 622 00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:07,040 Speaker 2: stars and it probably for. Me susie comes in maybe, 623 00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:09,680 Speaker 2: three three and a half out of. Five put it that, Way. 624 00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:11,520 Speaker 1: I'd give it. Three i'm with. You i'm. THREE i 625 00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:13,640 Speaker 1: was a bit. Disappointed i'm with. YOU i would half 626 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:16,120 Speaker 1: the carbohydrate down to twenty to thirty grams per. Serve 627 00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:18,639 Speaker 1: and that amount of sodium in A registerfi is just 628 00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:21,119 Speaker 1: way too. High so a little bit of soy sauce 629 00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:22,720 Speaker 1: or a little bit of if you can buy salt 630 00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:25,280 Speaker 1: reduce soy because it really does pack a great, flavor 631 00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:27,040 Speaker 1: but also plenty of, salt and that sometimes while we 632 00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:30,439 Speaker 1: wake up bloated or thirsty in the night, time because 633 00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:32,840 Speaker 1: that's really really. Concentrated so where you can look for 634 00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:35,960 Speaker 1: salt reduced versions of your favorite, sauces that's a smart 635 00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:38,040 Speaker 1: thing to do just to keep our overall salt intake. 636 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:39,320 Speaker 1: Controlled and the. 637 00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:42,480 Speaker 2: Other interesting THING i thought was the noodles are cooked turmeric, 638 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:44,560 Speaker 2: noodles so a little bit of a. Marketing you, know 639 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:47,360 Speaker 2: people like turmeric's supposed to be anti. Inflammatory we do 640 00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:49,440 Speaker 2: know from the research that we need black pepper to 641 00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:53,000 Speaker 2: activate the compounds in turmeric to make them. Bioavailable so 642 00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:55,240 Speaker 2: no mention of black pepper on the, labeling and no 643 00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:57,280 Speaker 2: mention of the amount of tumeric when we look at 644 00:28:57,280 --> 00:28:59,520 Speaker 2: the research. STUDIES i can't quote zoozie off the top 645 00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:02,160 Speaker 2: of my head what amount of tumeric we actually need 646 00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:04,360 Speaker 2: for an anti amblummetary. Effect but there's no one matt 647 00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:06,680 Speaker 2: listed on that label, Either so AGAIN i would call 648 00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:09,720 Speaker 2: the turmeric noodles a health, halo something that's in there 649 00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:12,320 Speaker 2: to perceive it as a healthier, choice but actually no 650 00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:15,760 Speaker 2: nutritional science based benefit for having those turmeric noodles in. 651 00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:18,080 Speaker 2: There they're, just, honestly there's yellow noodles at the end 652 00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:19,680 Speaker 2: of the, Day to be, honest they are. 653 00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:23,640 Speaker 1: Yellows you're, right and just an, Offside you're, right five 654 00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:25,880 Speaker 1: grams of fiber for that many veggies is still reasonably 655 00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:27,640 Speaker 1: low with a normal veggie. Stir if i'd be one 656 00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:30,040 Speaker 1: e eight to ten, grams so it's, higher but definitely 657 00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:32,280 Speaker 1: you could do better yourself at home with a lot 658 00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:36,040 Speaker 1: less processing and a lot fewer. Additives all, Right so 659 00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:38,520 Speaker 1: our final, segment, now this is one that is going 660 00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:40,960 Speaker 1: to resonate with a lot of our listeners because it's 661 00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:43,240 Speaker 1: a question that comes up a lot for me with 662 00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:45,520 Speaker 1: my own. CLIENTS i Know i've been partial to a 663 00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:48,520 Speaker 1: cheeky diet. Coke don't get me, Wrong i'm not proud of. 664 00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:51,600 Speaker 1: It but there's a lot of questions we get about 665 00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:53,880 Speaker 1: diet soft, drinks and this was one that came up 666 00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:57,640 Speaker 1: on Our facebook account about you, know diet soft, drinks 667 00:29:57,640 --> 00:30:00,360 Speaker 1: are they? Healthier can we still include them BECAUSE i love? 668 00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:03,400 Speaker 1: Them how often should we be having? Them so the 669 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:06,240 Speaker 1: good news IS i think around diet soft drinks and 670 00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:08,800 Speaker 1: they're all the same in the sense that while the 671 00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:11,720 Speaker 1: colon varieties we're very familiar with do also generally have 672 00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:15,520 Speaker 1: caffeine as, well they're basically all sweetened. Varieties whether they're 673 00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:18,280 Speaker 1: using a natural sweetener where they're using an artificial, sweetener 674 00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:21,200 Speaker 1: different flavors will often just be the use of different 675 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:25,080 Speaker 1: flavors through that mix of, sweetener and Sure it may 676 00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:27,600 Speaker 1: be you know inferred that a natural sweetener is, better 677 00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:30,080 Speaker 1: but at the end of the, day for, me they're 678 00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:33,680 Speaker 1: still giving your brain this really concentrated source of sweet 679 00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:37,520 Speaker 1: beverage that over time tends to drive you to want 680 00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:40,239 Speaker 1: more of that sweet. Food so are they better than 681 00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:42,640 Speaker 1: full strength one hundred percent because the research shows that's 682 00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:45,880 Speaker 1: full strength soft drinks adding nine teaspoons per can or 683 00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:48,920 Speaker 1: up to thirteen for a buddy, bottle closely linked to weight, 684 00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:51,840 Speaker 1: gain closely linked to, obesity really bad for the, teeth 685 00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:54,360 Speaker 1: terrible habit for teenage. Boys the less of them we, 686 00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:57,000 Speaker 1: have the. Better so from a sugar, perspective, yes the 687 00:30:57,040 --> 00:30:59,680 Speaker 1: diet varieties don't contain, calories they're going to be, better 688 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:02,000 Speaker 1: but that doesn't give you a, LICENSE i would, say 689 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:04,320 Speaker 1: by any means to have to drink, them because they 690 00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:07,120 Speaker 1: have also been linked to some issues with insulin. Response 691 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:11,000 Speaker 1: people who have them are not necessarily lighter in body, 692 00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:13,280 Speaker 1: weight so they haven't been shown to support weight control 693 00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:16,360 Speaker 1: any more than regular soft. Drink my belief around that 694 00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:18,440 Speaker 1: is that it primes you to want more sweet process, 695 00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:21,520 Speaker 1: food AND i would say an occasional thing to get 696 00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:23,880 Speaker 1: you through if you really need something but, AGAIN i 697 00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:25,880 Speaker 1: don't prescribe, THEM i don't encourage. Them and If i've 698 00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:28,520 Speaker 1: got a client who's heavily reliant on them and say 699 00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:31,600 Speaker 1: is drinking multiple per day or really looking for it every, 700 00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:34,920 Speaker 1: Day i'm really trying to reprogram the nutrition to not 701 00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:36,800 Speaker 1: want them and not have them as a routine part 702 00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:37,520 Speaker 1: of their dietary. 703 00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:40,520 Speaker 2: Intake And i'm like, You, SUSIE i have occasionally had 704 00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:42,360 Speaker 2: a diet. Coke if you see me at a restaurant 705 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:44,200 Speaker 2: one day And i'm not having a glass of, WINE 706 00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:46,200 Speaker 2: i might perhaps have a diet coke While i'm out 707 00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:48,040 Speaker 2: as a bit of a. Treat but, again that's something 708 00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:49,560 Speaker 2: THAT i even though it's no, calories isn't, IT i 709 00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:51,360 Speaker 2: would consider that a bit of a treat for myself 710 00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:54,200 Speaker 2: because it's something that's it's, nice it's it's, sweet it's. 711 00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:56,880 Speaker 2: Feeling but when we look at the, research And i'm 712 00:31:56,920 --> 00:31:59,880 Speaker 2: sure the latest meta ANALYSIS i read on diet so 713 00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:02,120 Speaker 2: drinks was that it actually didn't have any real effect 714 00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:04,880 Speaker 2: on blood sugar, levels which is great for our. Diabets 715 00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:06,400 Speaker 2: but as you, SAID i think what a lot of 716 00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:09,800 Speaker 2: people do from a behavioral perspective is they replace the 717 00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:11,800 Speaker 2: full sugar coke with a diet, coke but then it 718 00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:13,760 Speaker 2: sort of it always gives them an excuse to them 719 00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:16,440 Speaker 2: have more sugar a little bit later. On so you, 720 00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:18,360 Speaker 2: know that's not really conclusive in the. Resepch so we 721 00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:20,880 Speaker 2: know it doesn't really affect our blood sugar, levels which is, 722 00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:23,520 Speaker 2: great but it does kind, of as you, mentioned primus 723 00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:26,520 Speaker 2: to want more sweet things later. On it's also not 724 00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:29,160 Speaker 2: great for gut helse because a lot of the artificial 725 00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:32,200 Speaker 2: sweetness are what we call those sugar, alcohols and they're 726 00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:33,760 Speaker 2: just not great for gut. Health they can cause a 727 00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:35,520 Speaker 2: lot of bloating in wind and a lot of. People 728 00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:38,840 Speaker 2: plus the additional carbonations from the bubbles in soft drinks 729 00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:40,720 Speaker 2: can cause a lot of bloating and problems for people 730 00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:43,240 Speaker 2: with gut house, too and just the coal of varieties 731 00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:45,520 Speaker 2: of diet Coke i'm not really a fan of because you, 732 00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:46,880 Speaker 2: know they're not great for our teeth and they do 733 00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:53,880 Speaker 2: cause a bit of strain us. Erosion, yeah SO i 734 00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:55,800 Speaker 2: think that there are a few, varieties not so much 735 00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:58,000 Speaker 2: in cafes and, restaurants but if you're looking in the 736 00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:00,320 Speaker 2: diet soft drink or soft drink, aisle there are few 737 00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:02,680 Speaker 2: like diet, yeah sugar free lemonades and that sort of, 738 00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:05,160 Speaker 2: Thing but my preference is generally for my Client, susie 739 00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:07,920 Speaker 2: is something like a low sugar. Kombucha of course it's 740 00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:10,560 Speaker 2: not calorie, free but sort of thirty thirty five calories a. 741 00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:13,400 Speaker 2: Can whether or not there are some gud house benefits with, 742 00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:15,640 Speaker 2: KOMBUCHA i really do think the jury and the research 743 00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:18,080 Speaker 2: is still. Out with that, RESPECT i don't think there's 744 00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:20,080 Speaker 2: a huge amount of glut health benefits in a canna, 745 00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:22,720 Speaker 2: kombucha but it's definitely better than a can of full 746 00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:24,840 Speaker 2: sugar soft. Drinks so that's sort of my preference for 747 00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:27,360 Speaker 2: the majority of my. Clients BUT i do occasionally use 748 00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:30,320 Speaker 2: diet soft drinks for clients who iron a deficit and 749 00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:33,120 Speaker 2: are feeling, hungry because something like you, know a great 750 00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:35,720 Speaker 2: chicken and pumpkin salad with a diet coke when they're 751 00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:37,800 Speaker 2: out at lunch with their friends versus a bowl of 752 00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:40,360 Speaker 2: pasta and three wines is obviously going to be a 753 00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:43,240 Speaker 2: much better. Choice so, again like you're not proud of 754 00:33:43,240 --> 00:33:45,320 Speaker 2: the fact THAT i will occasionally use a diet coke with, 755 00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:47,840 Speaker 2: clients BUT i do think they have a good time 756 00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:51,120 Speaker 2: and place for the right, person but absolutely not on 757 00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:53,200 Speaker 2: a regular basis that aviv with a client who. Drinks you, 758 00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:56,200 Speaker 2: KNOW i don't personally working with private clients these, days 759 00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:57,640 Speaker 2: BUT i used to WHEN i worked in public heuth 760 00:33:57,640 --> 00:33:59,400 Speaker 2: that the, hospitals you, know people would come in with 761 00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:02,000 Speaker 2: six hundre meal bottles of sugar you, know full sugar 762 00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:04,400 Speaker 2: coc and those puge ic coffee things and that sort of, 763 00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:06,440 Speaker 2: thing and they'd have multiple of them per. Day so 764 00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:08,520 Speaker 2: getting them down off you, know one point two five 765 00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:11,160 Speaker 2: liters a coca, day just that direct swop to diet 766 00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:13,319 Speaker 2: coc is a great strategy to start, with and then 767 00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:15,600 Speaker 2: of course bringing down that load across the day and 768 00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:18,200 Speaker 2: across time is obviously going to be a great. Question 769 00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:21,000 Speaker 2: SO i think in terms of are they okay to, drink, 770 00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:23,839 Speaker 2: yes treat them as a. Treat put it that, way 771 00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:26,000 Speaker 2: AND i would, say you, know no more than sort 772 00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:28,520 Speaker 2: Of i'd say once a. Week that's sort of my 773 00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:30,040 Speaker 2: opinion with those sort of diets of. 774 00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:32,880 Speaker 1: Drinks AND i think if you're routinely buying, them if 775 00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:34,719 Speaker 1: they're in the, house you'll continue to drink. Them so 776 00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:36,799 Speaker 1: try to stop buying them and actually go and get 777 00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:39,240 Speaker 1: one when you really want, one look for the smaller. 778 00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:41,400 Speaker 1: Cans you can now get ones that are just two hundred, 779 00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:44,000 Speaker 1: meal so that's much better than a buddy, bottle of, 780 00:34:44,080 --> 00:34:46,279 Speaker 1: Course AND i think the other trick is that if 781 00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:48,840 Speaker 1: you are really craving something like, that you need to 782 00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:50,480 Speaker 1: eat with, It so you're much better to have a 783 00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:52,960 Speaker 1: cheese and crackers or some yogurt with it to help 784 00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:56,600 Speaker 1: neutralize that sugar. Craving then just have the artificial or 785 00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:58,759 Speaker 1: the natural sweetened drink that sort of gives you the, 786 00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:00,719 Speaker 1: hit but then the body realize you don't have any 787 00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:02,920 Speaker 1: fuel on board and it's more likely to drive the. 788 00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:04,960 Speaker 1: Craving so don't have them on their. Own always try 789 00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:07,200 Speaker 1: and have them with, food and you'll notice that changes 790 00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:09,680 Speaker 1: the taste of them and they're not so. Palatable so over, 791 00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:11,520 Speaker 1: time what we're trying to do is shift your palette 792 00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:14,880 Speaker 1: away from craving that artificial or sweet, flavor and that 793 00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:17,200 Speaker 1: will help you keeping much better in control of those. 794 00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:20,160 Speaker 1: Cravings and the other, thing of, course as the weather warms, 795 00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:23,200 Speaker 1: up lean doing things like the iced, teas using the 796 00:35:23,239 --> 00:35:25,880 Speaker 1: tea bag, yourself and now you can use something like 797 00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:28,200 Speaker 1: a little bit of steviea to sweeten it if you 798 00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:30,400 Speaker 1: do an ice cream tea or at ice there's so 799 00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:33,600 Speaker 1: many flavored teas out, there and programming you to actually 800 00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:36,360 Speaker 1: add a beverage that's got some antioxidants in it or 801 00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:38,600 Speaker 1: much healthier is a good thing to aim for and 802 00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:41,920 Speaker 1: shift your palette over time away from craving that very 803 00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:42,480 Speaker 1: very sweet. 804 00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:45,640 Speaker 2: Beverage, absolutely and there are a few good ranges of you, 805 00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:47,719 Speaker 2: know low sugar mineral waters on the market as, well 806 00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:50,200 Speaker 2: like sparkling mineral. Waters And i'm quite partial to just 807 00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:52,120 Speaker 2: a soda water with a small squeeze of lime and 808 00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:54,040 Speaker 2: some fresh and, mentals some fresh basil in it as. 809 00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:55,920 Speaker 2: Well particularly If i'm out And i'm choosing not to 810 00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:58,239 Speaker 2: drink that's my drink of, Choice i'll get a soda 811 00:35:58,280 --> 00:35:59,960 Speaker 2: water with some you, KNOW freshlm and a bit of 812 00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:01,799 Speaker 2: herbs in it or, something WHICH i think is really 813 00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:04,319 Speaker 2: lovely and, refreshing particularly in.
