1 00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:03,400 Speaker 1: Are you a bread lover? If so, what's your favorite type? 2 00:00:03,640 --> 00:00:06,840 Speaker 1: Is it that soft, white, crusty bread. Is it a sourdough, 3 00:00:06,920 --> 00:00:09,760 Speaker 1: perhaps a mixed grain or a rye bread, maybe even 4 00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:12,840 Speaker 1: one of the ever popular low carb protein breads on 5 00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:16,360 Speaker 1: the market. There are so many different types of bread, 6 00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:19,239 Speaker 1: but bread is commonly avoided on many diets for a 7 00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:23,000 Speaker 1: differing number of reasons. So today in the podcast, Susie 8 00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:24,799 Speaker 1: and I take a closer look at some of the 9 00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:27,920 Speaker 1: most popular bread loads and share with you everything we 10 00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:32,480 Speaker 1: know about this simple dietary state, because who doesn't love bread? Hi, 11 00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:33,840 Speaker 1: I'm Leanne Wood and I'm. 12 00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:35,239 Speaker 2: Susie Burrow and we bring. 13 00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:37,879 Speaker 1: You the Nutrition Catch, the biweekly podcast that keeps you 14 00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:40,080 Speaker 1: up to date on everything you need to know in 15 00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:43,159 Speaker 1: the world of nutrition as well as bread. Today we 16 00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:45,960 Speaker 1: take a deeper dive into what to eat the glowing 17 00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:49,360 Speaker 1: Skin as we move towards party season, and our list 18 00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:52,640 Speaker 1: of question is all about exercise and more specifically, what 19 00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:56,400 Speaker 1: is the best time of day to exercise? So, Susie, 20 00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:59,400 Speaker 1: first off, we are talking all foods glowing skin, and 21 00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:01,600 Speaker 1: I must say the weather is warming up a little 22 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:04,720 Speaker 1: bit and we're moving into party season, it's the final 23 00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:07,640 Speaker 1: quarter of the year, and everyone's had a big quarter 24 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:11,040 Speaker 1: so far. School holidays are nearly done and dusted. How's 25 00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:13,160 Speaker 1: your year shaping up or you know, we're coming to 26 00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:13,959 Speaker 1: a clothes already. 27 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:16,440 Speaker 3: Well, I think for anyone with kids in that final 28 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:20,000 Speaker 3: term of school, it literally is just event after event 29 00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:23,720 Speaker 3: right through November December. So I'm kind of bracing because 30 00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:26,480 Speaker 3: it is so incredibly busy. So many weekends are already 31 00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:30,080 Speaker 3: full with social commitments and sort of just as crazy, 32 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:33,080 Speaker 3: isn't it. But it's really relevant to our listeners because 33 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:36,120 Speaker 3: there's a lot of party food around and that often 34 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:39,960 Speaker 3: means that our healthy baseline diet is displaced. And I 35 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:41,840 Speaker 3: think the thing that you and I would agree on 36 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:45,679 Speaker 3: is that when it comes to eating for good glowing skin, 37 00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:50,600 Speaker 3: it really is that dietary foundation that is consumed over 38 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:53,080 Speaker 3: weeks and months rather than one off foods that are 39 00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 3: going to instantly improve your skin, because the skin sales 40 00:01:55,560 --> 00:02:00,240 Speaker 3: will replace reasonably frequently, and so it does. You know, 41 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 3: the skin picks up on those patterns over time and 42 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 3: those key nutrients, and when we're out gallivanting, drinking more alcohol, 43 00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 3: having more cannopase and snack food and platters. We're often 44 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:15,920 Speaker 3: forgetting that baseline nutrition that will really determine how well 45 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:17,840 Speaker 3: we feel in our bodies as well, but also how 46 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 3: our skin looks. And indeed, you know, when you are 47 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 3: feeling really good, indeed your skin can glow. And there's 48 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 3: some research to show what are the foods specifically that 49 00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 3: can give you the glow, but also some of those 50 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,639 Speaker 3: baseline foods to really focus on moving into that time 51 00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:33,840 Speaker 3: of year, because we know how interested people are in skin, 52 00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:37,400 Speaker 3: particularly with from beauty podcasts and people buying you know 53 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:41,360 Speaker 3: a range of elixes and creams and serums, but for me, 54 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 3: the foundation of great skin comes from that baseline diet, 55 00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 3: so we really want to go through what are some 56 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 3: of those key foods to be really focused on to 57 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:52,880 Speaker 3: really super pack those nutrients that we know is linked 58 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 3: to the glow specifically, but also the texture and the 59 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 3: look of the skin as well. So I guess the 60 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 3: first thing land that springs to mind when it comes 61 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 3: to skin sell health. We hear a lot about vitamin 62 00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:05,800 Speaker 3: C because vitamin C is directly involved in new cell 63 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:09,200 Speaker 3: generation and you know, of course you can take it 64 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:11,800 Speaker 3: in a supplement, but it's never as good as the 65 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 3: whole foods because you get that synergistic effect. So straight away, 66 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:16,480 Speaker 3: some of the superfoods that come to mind for me 67 00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:18,760 Speaker 3: that you would want to be including on a daily 68 00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 3: basis to really super charge that nutrient. You know, I 69 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 3: think the old RDI was thirty or forty milligrams per day, 70 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 3: but you can easily double that, and I would say 71 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:29,560 Speaker 3: getting as much as possible is going to be the 72 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:32,400 Speaker 3: best when it comes to skin. So berries finally, berries 73 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 3: are a lot more affordable. You can get your strawberries 74 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 3: and blueberries back for a couple of dollars pun it. 75 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 3: So absolutely a serve of. 76 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 2: Those a day. We want the leafy green vegs. 77 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 3: So things like your kale, your spinach, your rocket broccoli, 78 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:46,840 Speaker 3: very very rich in vitamin C as well as antioxidants 79 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:49,200 Speaker 3: in general, which we would say is naturally very important 80 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 3: for skin health or sell. 81 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 2: Health in general. 82 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:53,040 Speaker 3: Kiwi fruit, and I know you've done some work with 83 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 3: some special types of Kiwi's you can share in a 84 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:58,440 Speaker 3: minute about how packedful they are of that specific vitamin. 85 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 3: But I guess the ones that come to mind that 86 00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 3: we don't always associate with skin health. The other one 87 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 3: is vitamin A or beta carotene. Now, we hear about 88 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:11,760 Speaker 3: vitamin a and serums a lot, but of the research 89 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 3: that's available and the actual research study is specifically linked 90 00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 3: to an increase in the look of the skin and 91 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:21,280 Speaker 3: the color because they these vegetables that are a rich 92 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 3: lourt of beta carotene have that deep color within them. 93 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:27,760 Speaker 3: So if you eat a lot of carrots over time, 94 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 3: because they're orange, you'll notice your skin turns a little 95 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 3: bit orange. And we're certainly not encouraging people to overdose 96 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 3: the orange veggies and get an orange looking skin, but 97 00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:38,280 Speaker 3: there is research to show that consuming a significant amount 98 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:41,679 Speaker 3: of beta quarantine so from red capsicum, tomato, carrots, sweet potato, 99 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:44,799 Speaker 3: can really help improve the look and feel of the skin. 100 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 3: So I would be including leafy greens every single day, 101 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 3: and that may be through a green juice, or it 102 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:51,200 Speaker 3: may be through a big salad, or it may be 103 00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:53,680 Speaker 3: through some greens with your dinner. But as well as that, 104 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:56,560 Speaker 3: you want a couple of serves of those bright orange veggies. 105 00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 3: So I noticed that red caps comes are coming down 106 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:01,480 Speaker 3: in price a little bit, but also your carrots, even 107 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:03,479 Speaker 3: just munching on a carrot a day, and that's a 108 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 3: sign proven to help actually the color and the pigment 109 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:10,599 Speaker 3: of the skin over time. And the other area that 110 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:13,120 Speaker 3: doesn't get talked about as muchly and is the importance 111 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,560 Speaker 3: of getting your fat balance right and specifically the Amiga 112 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 3: threes because the wall of the cell has such a 113 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:22,840 Speaker 3: significant proportion of fat in it, and good fat. Having 114 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 3: some extra amiga three is known to improve sort of 115 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:29,600 Speaker 3: the suppleness of the skin, reduce inflammation naturally the softness 116 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:31,800 Speaker 3: of the skin, and certainly in some cultures that's regarded 117 00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 3: as anti aging, so Japanese, for example, who have a 118 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 3: lot of amiga three naturally in their diet. But the 119 00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 3: little trickly, and it's not just about eating salmon or 120 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:41,080 Speaker 3: even satines, because you know where a lot of the 121 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 3: Amiga three is in the skin, significant proportion, about two 122 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:47,479 Speaker 3: thirds of the amiga three content of your fish is 123 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:50,000 Speaker 3: actually in the skin. So absolutely you want to be 124 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 3: including that when you're doing it in the palm with 125 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 3: some extra version olive oil, because you're going to get 126 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 3: a beautiful dose of that a mega three fat coming through. 127 00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:01,720 Speaker 3: Ideally we'd need it most days, So certainly increasing your 128 00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:04,720 Speaker 3: fish intake. Again, it's not as good having the supplement 129 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,040 Speaker 3: form it's always better when you're getting it naturally in food. 130 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 3: So whether it's tin salmon in your salads, you're having 131 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 3: fresh salmon a couple of times a week. If you 132 00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 3: love sardines, you love mackerel, great additions to really supercharge 133 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,359 Speaker 3: that Amiga three fat going into the party season, and 134 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 3: have it with the skin if you can, because you're 135 00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 3: going to get a great dose of Amiga three from that. 136 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 1: It's all about the crispiness of the skin. I find 137 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:27,599 Speaker 1: as well. And I must say that if I bake, 138 00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 1: I normally will bake salmon if I have to make 139 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:31,839 Speaker 1: it myself, because otherwise I find like it. It gets 140 00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 1: in the air corn and it just hangs. The smell 141 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 1: of salmon hangs around the house for days, but it 142 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:37,480 Speaker 1: doesn't make the skin crispine. It doesn't make me want 143 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 1: to eat it. So I always say, whenever we have salmon, 144 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 1: which is once or twice a week, we tend to 145 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:43,480 Speaker 1: do it on a Monday night and again on the 146 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:45,600 Speaker 1: weekend if we're sort of a bit time poor, we're 147 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:47,599 Speaker 1: looking for an easy meal, and I always hand up 148 00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:49,360 Speaker 1: the salmon to David. That's his job for dinner, is 149 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 1: always cooking up the nice crispy salmon. And I think 150 00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 1: he did a bit of a google one day from 151 00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:54,919 Speaker 1: some of the famous chefs, and he's like, how do 152 00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 1: I make this as crispy and delicious as possible? So 153 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 1: his tricks are what he's really learned online is pats 154 00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:04,080 Speaker 1: the skin really dry. He salts the crap out of 155 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:06,920 Speaker 1: it basically like it's delicious and salty, puts it in 156 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:09,359 Speaker 1: a red hot pan with some extraversion olive oil, and 157 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 1: just basically lets that skin crispin up really well with 158 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 1: the pan has to be red hot, and it has 159 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 1: to be really really nicely salted as well. And that 160 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:19,360 Speaker 1: is my absolute favorite way to eat salmon with just 161 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 1: the crispiest skin. I really can't eat it if it's 162 00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 1: kind of a bit salgy or even reheated the next day, 163 00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 1: Like I'm not that much a fan of the skin. 164 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 1: It really has to be on the day, you know, 165 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 1: cooked in a red hot pan, really really well salted, 166 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:33,040 Speaker 1: And that is just my favorite way to eat salmon skin. 167 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:34,560 Speaker 2: Well, the bonus of having it tinned. 168 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 3: Now, of course I'm a consultant to Tassau, so they're 169 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:40,440 Speaker 3: not tin salmon, but if it's tinned, I can mash 170 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 3: the skin through it and the bones as well, and 171 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:44,000 Speaker 3: then you get the calcium too. So that's a really 172 00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:46,920 Speaker 3: nutrient rich addition to salads, particularly, you know, if you're 173 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,240 Speaker 3: choosing between salmon and tuna and like both, I would 174 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 3: definitely lean towards salmon just because of that Amiga three 175 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 3: slash calcium benefit if you include the bones. But the 176 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 3: way I cook my salmon, I put it on baking 177 00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 3: paper and I do still use a lot of oil 178 00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 3: as well, but I often marrit it and then again 179 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:03,320 Speaker 3: the skin will sort of break down in it, and 180 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:05,360 Speaker 3: then you get the marinade through it. Because my little 181 00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 3: boys won't necessarily eat it, but once it's mashed through 182 00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 3: the meal, you get that automatically because it's a It's 183 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 3: like for us, you know, we often think, don't throw 184 00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:15,240 Speaker 3: the skin out of the veggies because that's where a 185 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:17,960 Speaker 3: lot of the fiber and nutrients are. And certainly that's 186 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 3: the case with salmon, you know, throwing or if some 187 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:22,240 Speaker 3: people throw their egg yolks away because they think that 188 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 3: they're hind in fat. As dieticians, we know that that 189 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:28,560 Speaker 3: supernutrients are in those skins, so or you can include it, 190 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 3: absolutely do because you're getting, you know, heaps of that 191 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:32,920 Speaker 3: Amiga three through. 192 00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:34,679 Speaker 1: There, and if you can't, if you're not someone that 193 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:37,240 Speaker 1: loves salmon or ficial for whatever reason, you have an 194 00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 1: allergy you can't eat it. There are other ways you 195 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 1: can get in some plant based Amiga three through some 196 00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 1: of ourt you know, seeds, lind seeds and flaxeas But 197 00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:47,600 Speaker 1: it probably is an area where we will always, always 198 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 1: always say on the nutrition counts food first, but if 199 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:53,280 Speaker 1: you can't for whatever reason, get in your recommended amounts 200 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:56,320 Speaker 1: of ficial salmon, it is well worth exploring something like 201 00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 1: an Amiga three supplement because there is some really good 202 00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 1: quality research, particularly around things like cardia kal thin cholesterol 203 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:06,360 Speaker 1: as well, but also for things like skin health and inflammation. 204 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 1: And then going back to your point about vitamin c 205 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 1: ASSUSI a really easy way. I've been seeing this trend 206 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 1: a lot on Instagram lately, dietitians in the gut House 207 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:17,840 Speaker 1: space talking about how to really help constipation. This is 208 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:19,679 Speaker 1: completely uptract but I'll bring it back at a second. 209 00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:23,120 Speaker 1: I promise it's really to eat two QII fruit a day, 210 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 1: because that's really been shown in the research that that 211 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:28,359 Speaker 1: can really help with constipation, and the benefit is particularly 212 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 1: if you're eating something like a zespried sun goold Quiu fruit. 213 00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:34,680 Speaker 1: And full disclosure, I have worked with Zespri a couple 214 00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:36,680 Speaker 1: of months ago on one of their campaigns. I was 215 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 1: a dietitian for them. Per one hundred grams, a Zespri 216 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 1: sung goold Quieu fruit has one hundred and sixty one 217 00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 1: milligrams of vitamin C, meaning that roughly two of their 218 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 1: qiifruits has more than the actual required daily vitamin C intex. 219 00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 1: So just having two kiwi fruit a day is going 220 00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 1: to help with sluggish bows and constipation and also going 221 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 1: to give you more than the required daily amount of 222 00:09:56,720 --> 00:10:00,240 Speaker 1: vitamin C. So it's not better to over supplement, but 223 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:02,360 Speaker 1: you can't do too much harm when it comes to 224 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:04,360 Speaker 1: a food first approach. If we're having a couple of 225 00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 1: punets of blueberries or you know, a couple of extra 226 00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 1: ki fruit today, it's nowhere near as dangerous as if 227 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:12,840 Speaker 1: you're over supplementing with a vitamin C you know, supplement capsule, 228 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:16,280 Speaker 1: over supplementing with amiga free capsules. So food versus is 229 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:18,920 Speaker 1: always the preference, and then you can go to supplements. 230 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 1: We definitely never want to be over supplementing or going 231 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 1: over and above what the recommendations do say on the 232 00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:24,840 Speaker 1: back of the packet. 233 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:27,959 Speaker 3: That is massive for that kiwi fruit, Absolutely massive. It's 234 00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 3: like a great addition and relatively low in calories because 235 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 3: a lot of people will ask about fruit and sugars, 236 00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:35,960 Speaker 3: and kiwis are not only relatively low in cubs and sugars, 237 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:37,920 Speaker 3: but that amount of vitamin C is massive. If you're 238 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:40,960 Speaker 3: keen to have great skin, eat more kiwi and particularly 239 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:41,840 Speaker 3: what is it called. 240 00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:44,080 Speaker 1: The zespries sung gold ki fruit. And you know the 241 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:46,280 Speaker 1: best part about them, they're not the hairy ones. You 242 00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:49,960 Speaker 1: know how some kifruits are like they have the hairy skin. No, seriously, 243 00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 1: because I've seen so many dieticians being like, eat the skin, 244 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:54,080 Speaker 1: it's so good for you. And I'm not saying that 245 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 1: that's not true, but all who wants to eat a 246 00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:59,840 Speaker 1: fuzzy kiwi fruit skin disgusting. But the zespri ones don't 247 00:10:59,880 --> 00:11:01,079 Speaker 1: have different on them. 248 00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:03,600 Speaker 3: Different preferences for hair. I think, lea, we're getting into 249 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:06,160 Speaker 3: dangerous ory. I used to say to people, if you 250 00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:08,040 Speaker 3: want to have the extra fiber of the skin, put 251 00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 3: it like in the smoothie and blend it through. But 252 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:12,040 Speaker 3: I'm not a skin eater either. I'm with you one 253 00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:15,080 Speaker 3: hundred percent, So go the non hairy key we No. 254 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:17,080 Speaker 1: I can't do it, but I can do it with 255 00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:19,480 Speaker 1: the zespri ones. They're nice and smooth, they don't have 256 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:22,080 Speaker 1: their hair on them, So yeah, big fan of them, 257 00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:24,560 Speaker 1: particularly for you know, improving our vitamin C intake but 258 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:27,080 Speaker 1: also our natural fiber intake to help with things like 259 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:28,640 Speaker 1: sluggish bowels as well hot. 260 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:29,560 Speaker 2: Tip, oh dear. 261 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 3: And just off the back of that information on the 262 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:34,920 Speaker 3: plant based omega three links into the other neutrient I 263 00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:37,400 Speaker 3: want to talk about in the role of skin health, 264 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:39,920 Speaker 3: which is zinc. Because one of our favorite foods, and 265 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:42,160 Speaker 3: we've said this on the potty before, we love the 266 00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:46,720 Speaker 3: pumpkin seed snacks from munch because they've got like massive 267 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:48,720 Speaker 3: eight grams of long chain fats in them, which is 268 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:50,880 Speaker 3: one of the best plant based sources of a mega three, 269 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:53,679 Speaker 3: as is things like soy and linseed bread, any dense 270 00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:55,959 Speaker 3: mixed grain bread you'll get a good source of those 271 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 3: plant based omega threes, but also pumpkin seeds and pepeedas 272 00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:02,520 Speaker 3: are really really high in zinc because zinc is actually 273 00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:05,839 Speaker 3: a nutrient that is relatively low in the diets of 274 00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:08,440 Speaker 3: austrain women in particular because one of our richest sources 275 00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 3: of lean red meat, so for people who don't eat 276 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:14,280 Speaker 3: much of that, and shellfish, So just ticking the box 277 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:16,640 Speaker 3: on lean red meat three or four times a week 278 00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:20,199 Speaker 3: or shellfish. And if you're not someone who includes animal 279 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:22,720 Speaker 3: food or fish in your diet, things super food I 280 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 3: would say is a pumpkin seed or popedo on a 281 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:28,520 Speaker 3: daily basis, because zinc is huge when it comes to 282 00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:31,559 Speaker 3: protein synthesis and new cell generation, which is a crucial 283 00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:33,560 Speaker 3: part of skin health. And that's why when people look 284 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:36,160 Speaker 3: run down and tired, they'll get that sallow kind of 285 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:38,679 Speaker 3: look around the eyes and in there that's my cat, 286 00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:41,880 Speaker 3: a sallow kind of look around their eyes because they're 287 00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:44,160 Speaker 3: a bit run down and their immune system is not 288 00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 3: working really well. So you also want to really tick 289 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:48,959 Speaker 3: the box and your zinc intake, which is great for 290 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:52,280 Speaker 3: the immune system in general, but particularly important when it's 291 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 3: looking at new cell generation. And another couple of foods 292 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:57,120 Speaker 3: to tick the box on that a handful of nuts 293 00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:00,760 Speaker 3: each day and legumes things like our kidney beans now chickpeas, 294 00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:02,600 Speaker 3: making sure you're including those in salads. 295 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 2: So for me. It comes back to that message. 296 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:07,559 Speaker 3: Lane. We're going into this party season, you're socializing more 297 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:09,880 Speaker 3: if you know you're going straight from work to an event, 298 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:12,480 Speaker 3: or you're spending the weekend at several barbecues. You want 299 00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:14,640 Speaker 3: to make sure that at least one meal per day 300 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:17,440 Speaker 3: is whole food based. You've got super fits in it, 301 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:20,439 Speaker 3: like your leafy greens. You're stacking on fresh fruit and 302 00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:23,920 Speaker 3: focusing on that because often we focus on the treat 303 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 3: meals and what we shouldn't be having as opposed to 304 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:29,080 Speaker 3: taking a step back and say, how can I make 305 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:31,440 Speaker 3: sure I'm kicking the box each and every day to 306 00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:33,360 Speaker 3: make sure I'm getting some good fat, I'm getting a 307 00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:35,600 Speaker 3: serve of nuts and seeds, I'm getting a salad. So 308 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:39,559 Speaker 3: at least prioritizing one healthy, whole meal through the holiday 309 00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:42,560 Speaker 3: period will keep hopefully your skin on track thanks to 310 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:44,559 Speaker 3: good nutrition, even though you might be eating out a 311 00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 3: lot more and indulging. 312 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 1: Like that, and taking the extra time to just plan 313 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:49,840 Speaker 1: out your week a little bit as well, so that 314 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:52,360 Speaker 1: you don't get to something like lunch and you're like, oh, look, 315 00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 1: I don't have a social commitment. Oh wait, I've got 316 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:56,839 Speaker 1: no food in the house. I can't be bothered going 317 00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:59,240 Speaker 1: out for something I'm too tired to cook, so really 318 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:01,960 Speaker 1: having some quick, easy things on hand. I'm a big 319 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:04,400 Speaker 1: fan of those, like pre made salad kits, particularly in 320 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:06,760 Speaker 1: summer suits. I've always got them in my fridge. Even 321 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:09,960 Speaker 1: things like the woodsmoked salmon. I think it's beautiful as well. 322 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 1: Always having some tins of tune or salmon in the cupboard, 323 00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 1: a little bit of marinated tofu in my fridge. I've 324 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:17,719 Speaker 1: always got those quick and easy options on hand to 325 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 1: pull together a really nourishing meal as well. So zincs definitely, 326 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:23,640 Speaker 1: as you said, a really important one, particularly for wound healing. 327 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:25,840 Speaker 1: I used to work in the hospital and it really 328 00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 1: does help with cellular turnover and skin health because it 329 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:30,520 Speaker 1: also helps with wound healing. I used to work with 330 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 1: a lot of you know, diabetics, for a lot of 331 00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:34,520 Speaker 1: people with chronic wounds who had a really hard time 332 00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:37,080 Speaker 1: healing them and they just weren't having enough protein all 333 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 1: zinc in their diet, and the diet just wasn't whole 334 00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:42,359 Speaker 1: food enough to get in all of those essential nutrients. 335 00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 1: So the last thing I really just wanted to touch 336 00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:46,480 Speaker 1: on with skinhouse was collagen, because I think there's so 337 00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:49,280 Speaker 1: much hype around collagen. And I know for our listeners, 338 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:51,680 Speaker 1: who are you know, our fanatic fans, they listen to 339 00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:54,680 Speaker 1: every single episode. We have touched on collagen before. But 340 00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:57,880 Speaker 1: for perhaps some of our new listeners, where their research 341 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:01,480 Speaker 1: really sits with collagen, Unfortunately, there's basically zero research from 342 00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:05,120 Speaker 1: a god health perspective, but from a skin health perspective, 343 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:08,960 Speaker 1: there is it benefits from collagen in terms of improving 344 00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:12,680 Speaker 1: the hydration of your skin and improving your skin elasticity. 345 00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:15,680 Speaker 1: So there has actually been shown some research to support collagen. 346 00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:18,840 Speaker 1: But you need to take the recommended amount and off 347 00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:20,360 Speaker 1: the top of my head so thusia I can't remember it. 348 00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:22,920 Speaker 1: I'm thinking something like three to five grams a day 349 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 1: or something, and you need to do it consistently. Most 350 00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:27,560 Speaker 1: of the research studies were well over eight weeks. So 351 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:30,280 Speaker 1: if you've got some collagen at home and you sporadically 352 00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:33,320 Speaker 1: take it every Tuesday and occasionally on a Friday morning, 353 00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 1: when you remember, you're not really doing yourself any benefits. 354 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:38,320 Speaker 1: You're basically just wasting your money. So you really need 355 00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:41,960 Speaker 1: to take it religiously on a daily basis for at 356 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 1: least a couple of months to really see those improvements 357 00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:49,440 Speaker 1: in terms of skin hydration and elasticity. Unfortunately, collagen hasn't 358 00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:51,960 Speaker 1: been shown in the literature to really help with things 359 00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 1: like wrinkles or you know, the texture of your skin 360 00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:57,400 Speaker 1: all that sort of thing either, So really pick and choose. 361 00:15:57,440 --> 00:16:00,320 Speaker 1: If the hydration and the elasticity is something that you're 362 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:03,400 Speaker 1: looking to improve, collagen may be a benefit for you. 363 00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:07,320 Speaker 1: Of course, on top of a good skincare routine, using 364 00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:10,320 Speaker 1: sunscreen regularly, and having a nice whole food based diet 365 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:12,520 Speaker 1: as well. There's no magic bullets when it comes to 366 00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:15,120 Speaker 1: something like collagen. You have to have your baseline first 367 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:15,880 Speaker 1: as well. 368 00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:18,440 Speaker 3: And of course keeping well hydrated because that's the other issue. 369 00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:22,440 Speaker 3: Coming into party season that we're again partying. Socializing fe 370 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:24,360 Speaker 3: you too many drinks, so you want to keep on 371 00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 3: top of your hydration in the hot of the summer 372 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:29,160 Speaker 3: with it we say roughly two liters per day, or 373 00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:31,960 Speaker 3: you know, when you're out having a good time, trying 374 00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:34,720 Speaker 3: to match one alcoholic drink with a regular drink to 375 00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:37,120 Speaker 3: avoid dehydration because that again will make your skin look 376 00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:40,480 Speaker 3: very puffy and tired the next day. All right, leanne 377 00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:43,400 Speaker 3: the most exciting segment we've done for quite some time. 378 00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:52,400 Speaker 3: Bread Now, my favorite bread is a crusty, fresh, deep dense, 379 00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:57,560 Speaker 3: grainy sourdough and I love nothing more than having that 380 00:16:57,600 --> 00:16:59,240 Speaker 3: when you get the fresh little bit at the end 381 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:01,480 Speaker 3: with a bit of vegemin a bit of butter maybe 382 00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:07,000 Speaker 3: or some pesto and marinated goats, cheese and tomato like delish. 383 00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:12,160 Speaker 2: I buy bread, Yes, we buy bread. I buy bread 384 00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:13,360 Speaker 2: for the kids. We buy a whole meal. 385 00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:17,000 Speaker 3: But the question that came up through my clients that 386 00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:20,040 Speaker 3: led to this discussion was that a client had said 387 00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:22,560 Speaker 3: to me, I can't eat bread and lose weight. 388 00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:23,760 Speaker 2: That was her belief. 389 00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:26,880 Speaker 3: And one of the things when you work with clients 390 00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:30,879 Speaker 3: is that's important you listen to their beliefs and perspective 391 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:33,360 Speaker 3: and not say you're wrong, that's not true. You can 392 00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:35,639 Speaker 3: eat bread because for whatever reason they may choose not 393 00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:38,200 Speaker 3: to have bread. But I know bread is a little 394 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:40,679 Speaker 3: bit of sensitive topics, and people find they can't control 395 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:44,920 Speaker 3: themselves around bread, or they really only like or prefer 396 00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:47,400 Speaker 3: the sort of soft white bread, which we would argue 397 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:50,200 Speaker 3: is perhaps not the best choice nutritionally. Although say the 398 00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:53,359 Speaker 3: kids will only eat white bread, they can't have sour 399 00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:55,880 Speaker 3: dough in the house. Sour doo's healthier? Is it healthier? 400 00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:58,679 Speaker 3: Then there's all these low carbreads. So I thought, you 401 00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:01,480 Speaker 3: know what, there's plenty of stuff to talk about when 402 00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:02,760 Speaker 3: it comes to bread. So we thought it would be 403 00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:04,359 Speaker 3: great to do a bit of an overview on our 404 00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:07,439 Speaker 3: perspective on it. So you know, bread's of dietary stable 405 00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:09,720 Speaker 3: for thousands of years. It's a source of carver hydrates, 406 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:13,800 Speaker 3: beakrit vitamins, and you know, traditionally, if I think back 407 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:16,600 Speaker 3: to the seventies, we would have small slices of white 408 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:19,240 Speaker 3: bread that fit very neatly in the toaster. And then 409 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:21,439 Speaker 3: we became more aware of the role of dietary fiber 410 00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 3: coming through a whole grain, which might be through wholemeal 411 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:26,000 Speaker 3: bread which has had the actual grain ground down but 412 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:29,480 Speaker 3: retains the fiber, or a whole grain variety of bread 413 00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:31,720 Speaker 3: which can range between ten percent grain right up to 414 00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:35,479 Speaker 3: sort of twenty five thirty percent grain, which sort of 415 00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:37,000 Speaker 3: have the whole grain in them. You can see them 416 00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:39,679 Speaker 3: much coarser, and what we know now is they're more 417 00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:42,119 Speaker 3: slowly digested than both whole meal and white bread, so 418 00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:45,160 Speaker 3: they release glucose much more slowly into the bloodstream. When 419 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 3: it comes to low carbreads, which we've covered on our 420 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:50,359 Speaker 3: product review segment, they are breads that tend to have 421 00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:53,840 Speaker 3: our either formulated flower that's higher in protein or be 422 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:56,399 Speaker 3: very dense in grain to keep the carver hydrate loads 423 00:18:56,400 --> 00:19:00,359 Speaker 3: as low as say five seven grams per serve to 424 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:03,520 Speaker 3: say twenty thirty grams of carbohydrate for regular bread. And 425 00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:05,760 Speaker 3: then of course we have sort of more ittesian breads, 426 00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:09,560 Speaker 3: which may include things like sour dough or specialty breads 427 00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:12,080 Speaker 3: that are consumed in different cultures, like your Turkish bread, 428 00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:15,760 Speaker 3: your Lebanese bread, which can have much much higher carbohydrate loads, 429 00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:18,240 Speaker 3: you know, forty five up to sort of sixty even 430 00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:21,480 Speaker 3: eighty grams of carbohydrate per serve because of the density 431 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:24,560 Speaker 3: of flour in that bread. So there is first of all, 432 00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:27,040 Speaker 3: no one size fits or model about how much bread 433 00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:30,439 Speaker 3: is too much. In general, if your gut con tolerate grains, 434 00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:33,040 Speaker 3: grains is always best because you're getting the whole grain 435 00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:35,520 Speaker 3: in the nutrition. There are also benefits to breads like 436 00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:38,720 Speaker 3: rye bread because they've got different types of fiber, which 437 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:40,960 Speaker 3: can be great for gut health for the right person. 438 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:44,359 Speaker 3: Lower carbreads might be a really great option in keeping 439 00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:48,360 Speaker 3: carbohydrate low for whatever reason that is. And I think 440 00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:51,520 Speaker 3: the main thing that crosses my path is the size 441 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:54,919 Speaker 3: of slices. So if you think, as I said, to 442 00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:59,040 Speaker 3: traditional white sized bread, it was quite small thirty grams 443 00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 3: roughly per slice, about sixty. Now the large slices of 444 00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:05,119 Speaker 3: bread can be double that, and with it comes a 445 00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:07,840 Speaker 3: much higher carbohydrate load and calories. You know, you can 446 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:10,680 Speaker 3: get big slices of grain bread that look really healthy, 447 00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:13,639 Speaker 3: but they're coming in it, you know, close to fifty 448 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:16,960 Speaker 3: grams of carbohydrate per slice, which is significant for people 449 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:19,080 Speaker 3: who perhaps aren't burning that much carbohydrate. 450 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:21,000 Speaker 2: So I'm not anti carb. 451 00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:22,479 Speaker 3: I just like my clients to be aware of the 452 00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 3: density of some of these big slices, and in particular 453 00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 3: sour jough, because sourjough, if it's not whole grain, is 454 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:32,359 Speaker 3: still a white bread. It's better quality, it's got a 455 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:35,199 Speaker 3: lower GI, but it still has that fiber load. So 456 00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:37,240 Speaker 3: a couple of slices of sowjough you'll get when you 457 00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 3: go to the cafe for breakfast, we'll have upwards of 458 00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:42,840 Speaker 3: sixty plus grams of carbohydrate, which is not insignificant. So 459 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:46,320 Speaker 3: usually my recommendation with clients is it's one size of 460 00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:48,840 Speaker 3: sour doough, not two, and where you can opt for 461 00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 3: the grain varieties too. And of course, Leah, and the 462 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:53,520 Speaker 3: issue with sourjough is that it's off and round, so 463 00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:55,080 Speaker 3: you get these little bits on the end and then 464 00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 3: these massive slices in the middle. So it's a little 465 00:20:57,119 --> 00:21:00,520 Speaker 3: bit of just being mindful of portions. But you know, 466 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:03,199 Speaker 3: my clients will have two, maybe up to four sizees 467 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:05,200 Speaker 3: of bread if they're quite active. But there's no one 468 00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:08,040 Speaker 3: size fits or model. It's more for me the type 469 00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:12,080 Speaker 3: and the size. And then if I have a client 470 00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:15,240 Speaker 3: who loves an artesian loaf and that's they're not cheap. 471 00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:16,880 Speaker 3: You know, you're looking at eight ten dollars a loaf, 472 00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:20,600 Speaker 3: but they can't control themselves and we'll eat the whole thing. Obviously, 473 00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:24,040 Speaker 3: we look at behavioral strategies around that, and you know, 474 00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:27,200 Speaker 3: to make them last long are great options to freeze them. 475 00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:29,719 Speaker 3: You know, when I visit my Italian friends in Woollongong, 476 00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:33,640 Speaker 3: when they get great Sydney sourdough, we take down. They 477 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:35,960 Speaker 3: will cut it and freeze it and so it's ready 478 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:39,040 Speaker 3: for toast, but they don't waste it. But rather than 479 00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 3: having that fresh loaf on there and you keep snacking away. 480 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:44,080 Speaker 3: So it's about just managing it and being able to 481 00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 3: incorporate it without being too tempted when it's fresh and crusty, 482 00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:49,840 Speaker 3: because we've all been there and before you know it, 483 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:50,800 Speaker 3: half the loaf's gone. 484 00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:54,600 Speaker 1: Absolutely, And I always find it funny that clients, and 485 00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:57,320 Speaker 1: as you said, we're not here to tell people what 486 00:21:57,359 --> 00:21:59,600 Speaker 1: to do or tell them what to believe. But it's 487 00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:02,320 Speaker 1: always amusing to me when clients go, I can't eat bread. 488 00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:04,639 Speaker 1: Breads fattening, And then I sort of explain what a 489 00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:07,040 Speaker 1: macronutrient is and how you know bread would fall within 490 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:09,639 Speaker 1: a carbohydrate, not actually within a fat like bread has 491 00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:12,000 Speaker 1: very very minimal amounts of fat. Of course, if we're 492 00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:14,800 Speaker 1: putting things like butter or avocado or peanut butter on it, 493 00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:17,399 Speaker 1: then we're adding fat to it. But traditionally bread is 494 00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:19,800 Speaker 1: very low fat. So I'm not really sure where the 495 00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:22,800 Speaker 1: whole thought process. I know, I've heard it from so 496 00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:25,120 Speaker 1: many clients. Even my mum, I think, you know, has 497 00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:27,640 Speaker 1: said in the past, our bread's very fattening. So it's 498 00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:30,320 Speaker 1: not fattening, it just has a lot of carbohydrates. In it, 499 00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 1: And I think it's really dependent on the amount whether 500 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:36,440 Speaker 1: or not people can tolerate bread in terms of losing weight. 501 00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:38,159 Speaker 1: But I think because I work with a lot of 502 00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:40,359 Speaker 1: clients from a gut health perspective but also a fat 503 00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:43,280 Speaker 1: loss perspective, we're really looking at about the quality of 504 00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:45,320 Speaker 1: the bread as well. And as you mentioned, a lot 505 00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:47,640 Speaker 1: of my clients will preference something like a mixed grain 506 00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:51,480 Speaker 1: saldo because sourdo has been slowly fermented over time. So 507 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:53,760 Speaker 1: for a lot of people, if they're not selly like, 508 00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:56,520 Speaker 1: they can tolerate, you know, some bit of gluten and wheat, 509 00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:58,600 Speaker 1: but they have a little bit of a sensitive tummy. 510 00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:00,719 Speaker 1: A lot of my clients can tolerate it's something like 511 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:03,680 Speaker 1: a small bit of sourdo a lot easier than say 512 00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:05,960 Speaker 1: just this standed piece of wholemeal bread or wheat bread 513 00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:09,160 Speaker 1: or something like that. So soado has always been my favorite, 514 00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:12,679 Speaker 1: particularly a beautiful crusty sourdo where it's like really you know, 515 00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:15,480 Speaker 1: thick on the outside and soften and sort of almost 516 00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:17,240 Speaker 1: almost say gooey, but it's not gooey, you know, it's 517 00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:19,159 Speaker 1: nice and sort of air rated in the middle. And 518 00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:21,040 Speaker 1: I do love just putting a good spread of sort 519 00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:23,879 Speaker 1: of good quality butter or some avocado and you know, 520 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 1: a shake of chili flakes or something on that. And 521 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:29,000 Speaker 1: soado is a perfect, wonderful first food for babies as well. 522 00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:30,720 Speaker 1: That was one of the first things I gave Mere 523 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:33,240 Speaker 1: because she just gnawed on the outside of it. She 524 00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:36,639 Speaker 1: absolutely loved it. So I'm a big sourdo fan. But also, 525 00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:39,399 Speaker 1: as you mentioned, a lot of those denser whole grain breads, 526 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:42,080 Speaker 1: I love them from a gut health perspective, but because 527 00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:46,800 Speaker 1: they are so dense, depending on the size and height 528 00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:49,120 Speaker 1: and activity levels of my clients, I might just get 529 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:51,280 Speaker 1: them to make sort of a you know, use one 530 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:53,640 Speaker 1: slice and use like half a sandwich and then bulk 531 00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:55,520 Speaker 1: it out with big salad and you know, some extra 532 00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:58,320 Speaker 1: sort of starchin non starchy veggies on the side there. 533 00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:00,280 Speaker 1: So I don't think there's a right or wrong rule 534 00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:02,399 Speaker 1: with bread, but I do find that when I have 535 00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:05,040 Speaker 1: clients we're having sort of two three slices of breakfast 536 00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:07,680 Speaker 1: and another too three slices at lunch, I just don't 537 00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:10,680 Speaker 1: feel like it's as filling as some of our other 538 00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:13,960 Speaker 1: types of carbohydrates or stargy carbohydrates. So I find a 539 00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:15,960 Speaker 1: lot of my clients were looking for that volume dents 540 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:18,479 Speaker 1: eating approach where they're hungry all the time. I do 541 00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:20,880 Speaker 1: like to include a little bit of maybe bread at breakfast, 542 00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:23,880 Speaker 1: but then lunch I do tend to use carbohydrates like potato, 543 00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:26,080 Speaker 1: orsweet potato or a bit of rice or kinoi or 544 00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:28,520 Speaker 1: legumes to fill them up more because you're sort of 545 00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:30,679 Speaker 1: getting a bit more bang via buck. So I'm not 546 00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:33,920 Speaker 1: a huge bread sandwich type person, but I do love 547 00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:36,800 Speaker 1: some definitely some good quality sourdo or nice life of 548 00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:39,320 Speaker 1: mixed dense grain bread with some of my eggs or 549 00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:41,440 Speaker 1: something like that in the morning. And I am partial 550 00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:44,520 Speaker 1: to using some of the protein toasts as well, particularly 551 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:47,640 Speaker 1: during pregnancy when I really struggle to just eat enough protein. 552 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:49,439 Speaker 1: I would often just have a bit of you know, 553 00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:51,919 Speaker 1: like a fried egg with a protein toast with a 554 00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 1: bit of cheese and some veggies on the side. That 555 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:56,000 Speaker 1: was my go to meal. I think I had that 556 00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:58,800 Speaker 1: nearly every day for months when I had a few 557 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:00,920 Speaker 1: sort of food a versions. And so I think we've 558 00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:03,639 Speaker 1: come a long way with breads, and there's definitely better 559 00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:06,400 Speaker 1: options from a health perspective, and then better options from 560 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:08,720 Speaker 1: a sort of fat loss perspective as well. 561 00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:11,920 Speaker 3: And there's a huge range of also breads that target 562 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,960 Speaker 3: digestive health and well being with some special fibers in them. 563 00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:18,680 Speaker 3: You can also find low fodmap loaves in specially outlets 564 00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:21,399 Speaker 3: like Baker's Delight for people. But I guess the key 565 00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:23,639 Speaker 3: thing I try and get my clients to do is 566 00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:25,600 Speaker 3: have a quick scan of carbs per serve and just 567 00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:27,359 Speaker 3: keep an eye on it. I think I mentioned a 568 00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:29,520 Speaker 3: few weeks ago I saw a Sowjo role at Wollis 569 00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:31,800 Speaker 3: that had like eighty grams of carbohydrate, So as a 570 00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:34,680 Speaker 3: rough reference, a couple of slices of bread or have 571 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:37,760 Speaker 3: about thirty grams of carbohydrate for regular, so if it's 572 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:40,399 Speaker 3: starting to gap around sixty, it's a very dense type 573 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:44,360 Speaker 3: loaf and possibly more appropriate for very active people who 574 00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:48,080 Speaker 3: want to gain muscle mass or younger people. But just 575 00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:50,800 Speaker 3: going on with what I use the lower carbbreads for, 576 00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:54,359 Speaker 3: because I find that a slice of toast, for example, 577 00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:58,480 Speaker 3: is a filling snack, whereas if you grab crackers or 578 00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:00,240 Speaker 3: even a fruit, sometimes you don't feel like I've had 579 00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:02,920 Speaker 3: a snack or anything substantial, Whereas when I've got my 580 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:05,040 Speaker 3: hungry girls in the afternoon, particularly if they're going to 581 00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:07,440 Speaker 3: the gym before they go home for dinner and they 582 00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:09,520 Speaker 3: have a slice of like a protein toast with peanut 583 00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:12,760 Speaker 3: butter and some honey or banana and peanut butter. They 584 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:15,639 Speaker 3: just need one slice and it really fills them up 585 00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:18,880 Speaker 3: and feels really satisfying that they've actually eaten something substantial. 586 00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:20,960 Speaker 3: So that can be a really smart way to use 587 00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:23,480 Speaker 3: those new loaves. And what I encourage my families to 588 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:26,240 Speaker 3: do is keep them in the freezer because if you're 589 00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:27,840 Speaker 3: not using it very often, you're not throwing it away 590 00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:30,440 Speaker 3: because they're not inexpensive. Some of these loaves, you know, 591 00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:32,160 Speaker 3: you're looking at five six dollars, and if you're only 592 00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:34,360 Speaker 3: using a couple of slices a week, or the rest 593 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:35,960 Speaker 3: of the family are having a plane a loaf, you 594 00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:38,320 Speaker 3: don't want to waste it. And they freeze really well. 595 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:40,320 Speaker 3: So I would encourage you if you do invest in 596 00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:42,520 Speaker 3: that kind of bread, whether it's an expensive sour dough 597 00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 3: from the bakery and you're trying not to eat it all, 598 00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:47,480 Speaker 3: or you know, one of those protein loaves, keep them 599 00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:50,320 Speaker 3: in the freezer. It keeps them really fresh because of 600 00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:52,960 Speaker 3: the grains that will stop them from going ransoid, and 601 00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:54,960 Speaker 3: it will keep for a long time as toast. Admittedly 602 00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:57,280 Speaker 3: it's not as nice as fresh, but if you're trying 603 00:26:57,320 --> 00:26:59,400 Speaker 3: to extend the life of that loaf and not eat 604 00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:01,080 Speaker 3: it all at once, it will freeze really well. And 605 00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:02,679 Speaker 3: a smart thing to have on hand for quick and 606 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:04,840 Speaker 3: easy meals or even you know, late night dinner if 607 00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:06,639 Speaker 3: you're home and have that with some tuna or salmon. 608 00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:08,800 Speaker 3: It's a great way to avoid ordering takeaway. 609 00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:11,880 Speaker 1: Those protein loaves actually come frozen as well, so often 610 00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:13,560 Speaker 1: I picked them up off the shelf and I'm like, oh, 611 00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:15,719 Speaker 1: they're a bit wet. That's a bit weird. And then 612 00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:18,240 Speaker 1: I actually saw them unpacking them one day, like restocking 613 00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:20,280 Speaker 1: the shelves, and I asked the guy and he said, yeah, 614 00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:21,920 Speaker 1: they come frozen off the back of the truck. So 615 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:24,600 Speaker 1: whatever the company is that sends them, they send them frozen. 616 00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:28,159 Speaker 1: So I rarely ever use those protein low card loaves 617 00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:31,120 Speaker 1: as a sandwich option. I'd say nine to nine percent 618 00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:32,679 Speaker 1: of the time. If I'd given them to my clients 619 00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:35,520 Speaker 1: or I eat them myself. It's as toast because it's 620 00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:37,840 Speaker 1: not a nice fresh bread. It's not nice and airy 621 00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:40,800 Speaker 1: and light it doesn't make a nice sandwich. It's incredibly dense, 622 00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:43,560 Speaker 1: and I just think unless it's toasted, I actually don't 623 00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:46,280 Speaker 1: think it's very nice at all. So I always keep 624 00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:48,240 Speaker 1: that in my freezer because it kind of comes frozen, 625 00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:50,199 Speaker 1: it gets to frost it on the shelf. It's not 626 00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:52,720 Speaker 1: something that's nice that you would actually enjoy fresh, So 627 00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:55,000 Speaker 1: I always put those loaves in the freezer. But they 628 00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:56,960 Speaker 1: are they do have a beautiful mix of you know, 629 00:27:57,200 --> 00:27:59,160 Speaker 1: a lot of different types of seeds and a wonderful 630 00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:03,280 Speaker 1: fat profile them, but they are actually incredibly low in carbohydrates. 631 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:05,919 Speaker 1: So I definitely don't use those options as a post 632 00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:10,280 Speaker 1: workout option for my active clients because we definitely do 633 00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:13,359 Speaker 1: want carbohydrates in post workout to support fueling. So if 634 00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:15,960 Speaker 1: you're going to do a low carb protein type toast 635 00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:17,719 Speaker 1: with a bit of banana and honey, you're gonna put 636 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:20,119 Speaker 1: the carbs on it, then that's absolutely okay. But a 637 00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:22,520 Speaker 1: lot of people will do that with some peanut butter 638 00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:25,639 Speaker 1: and it's a very very low carbohydrate breakfast or snack, 639 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:28,000 Speaker 1: And if you're doing that post workout, yes you're hitting 640 00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:30,520 Speaker 1: the protein, but you're not hitting the carbohydrates That are 641 00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:33,080 Speaker 1: needed to refuel the muscles, so just be wary of that. 642 00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:35,320 Speaker 3: I think as well good point, and I use bananas 643 00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:37,240 Speaker 3: quite often for that, so or even if you like 644 00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:39,240 Speaker 3: German honey, it's a great way to incorporate that but 645 00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:41,000 Speaker 3: still get the protein definitely. 646 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:44,400 Speaker 1: And leading on from exercise, our listener question of the 647 00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:47,720 Speaker 1: week is actually around exercise, Susi. So our listener wrote 648 00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:50,040 Speaker 1: in I think through us through Instagram and asked us 649 00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:53,040 Speaker 1: what is the best time to do exercise? So I 650 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:55,360 Speaker 1: know there is a little bit of research in this space, Susi. 651 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:58,360 Speaker 1: So I'll pass over to you to let our listeners know. 652 00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:01,200 Speaker 1: But first I always and you know, I think for 653 00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:03,640 Speaker 1: a lot of people who struggle with exercise and they're 654 00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:05,920 Speaker 1: on again, they're off again, they have a gym membership, 655 00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:08,760 Speaker 1: they rarely go. They'll go sporadically and burst for a 656 00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:10,360 Speaker 1: couple of weeks, and they're not go for a couple 657 00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:12,560 Speaker 1: of weeks or a month. I always say that the 658 00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:15,040 Speaker 1: best time to exercise is when it makes you feel good. 659 00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:16,800 Speaker 1: And I have a lot of clients who say I 660 00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:18,480 Speaker 1: need to wake up and I need to go, because 661 00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:19,960 Speaker 1: if I don't go in the morning, then I won't 662 00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:21,960 Speaker 1: go at all, so I will always support them and 663 00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:24,040 Speaker 1: encourage them to just go first thing in the morning. 664 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:25,840 Speaker 1: Or I have a lot of clients who you know, 665 00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:28,880 Speaker 1: they're so busy getting kids out the door, making school lunches, 666 00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:31,480 Speaker 1: doing the run to work in school in the morning, 667 00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:34,400 Speaker 1: they just don't have time. So it's like after dinner, 668 00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:36,520 Speaker 1: or it's something in the afternoon, they finish work, they 669 00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:39,000 Speaker 1: go straight to the gym. I think with exercise for 670 00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:40,640 Speaker 1: a lot of it's it's best to get into a 671 00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:43,479 Speaker 1: routine at a similar type of day, so you're creating 672 00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:46,520 Speaker 1: that consistent habit. Me with my own business, I don't 673 00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:49,400 Speaker 1: have consistency, so some days I'm like, oh, I just 674 00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:51,160 Speaker 1: run out of time the day to go. Like on 675 00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:52,920 Speaker 1: a Monday, I like to go early because I don't 676 00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:55,240 Speaker 1: have too many clients. On a Tuesday, I've got clients 677 00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:57,280 Speaker 1: most of the day. If I go, it's generally in 678 00:29:57,320 --> 00:29:59,760 Speaker 1: the afternoon. On a Wednesday, tends to be about mid 679 00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:02,240 Speaker 1: mor Because I'm jumping all over the place with my 680 00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:05,800 Speaker 1: own exercise, I feel like that's harder to stay consistent 681 00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:07,280 Speaker 1: with it than when I used to work at the 682 00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:09,840 Speaker 1: hospital and I would go every afternoon, like i'd start 683 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:12,240 Speaker 1: at the hospital at seven thirty, I'd finished by four pm, 684 00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:13,880 Speaker 1: and I'd be at the gym by four point thirty 685 00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:16,440 Speaker 1: pretty much every day Monday to Friday. So I find 686 00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:19,960 Speaker 1: that with consistency, if you struggle with exercise, that's probably 687 00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:22,520 Speaker 1: the best thing. Don't really worry about what the research 688 00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:24,480 Speaker 1: says in terms of the time of day. Just go 689 00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:27,400 Speaker 1: consistently at a similar time each day, and I feel 690 00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:28,840 Speaker 1: like that's going to be one of the best things 691 00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:31,560 Speaker 1: you can do to get into that regular habit. But 692 00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:34,560 Speaker 1: if our listeners are interested about some of the science 693 00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:37,080 Speaker 1: behind this, Suzi, what does the research tell us in 694 00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:39,160 Speaker 1: terms of the best time to exercise, Well. 695 00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:40,440 Speaker 2: It's a bit of theory. 696 00:30:40,520 --> 00:30:42,720 Speaker 3: In terms of the argument has always been if you 697 00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:45,160 Speaker 3: go fast after the overnight fast, you'll burn a higher 698 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:49,040 Speaker 3: proportion of fat. Now, in theory it is correct because 699 00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:51,160 Speaker 3: you're in a fasted state, but it's got a lot 700 00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:54,040 Speaker 3: more to do with the intensity of exercise rather than the. 701 00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:54,600 Speaker 2: Time of day. 702 00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:57,480 Speaker 3: And I'm like you, the best time of data exercise 703 00:30:57,560 --> 00:31:00,240 Speaker 3: is when you're going to do it. The benefit of 704 00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:02,520 Speaker 3: going faster or in the morning is that you'll get 705 00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:04,960 Speaker 3: a metabolic boost from that. Mind, you you'll get a 706 00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:06,920 Speaker 3: metabolic boost from training in the afternoon as well if 707 00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:09,560 Speaker 3: you do it high enough intensity. But for example, if 708 00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:12,000 Speaker 3: you've not eaten for twelve hours and then you go 709 00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:15,240 Speaker 3: and exercise at high intensity, it's going to increase metabolic rate, 710 00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:17,600 Speaker 3: which will follow through for several hours of that day. 711 00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:19,800 Speaker 3: But it's no good if you're going to argue with 712 00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:22,320 Speaker 3: yourself every morning and actually end up not going more 713 00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:24,640 Speaker 3: than you go because you actually are not a morning person. 714 00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:26,800 Speaker 3: So I think it's really worth in the same way 715 00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:30,760 Speaker 3: of spending time considering what exercise you enjoy doing, think 716 00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:33,320 Speaker 3: of what time of day is best for you, and 717 00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:36,120 Speaker 3: then create the schedule and system to make it easier 718 00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:38,080 Speaker 3: to go. So whether that's making sure you're going to 719 00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:40,360 Speaker 3: meet a friend or you're doing it at a time 720 00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:44,160 Speaker 3: of day that is more appropriate or fits in with 721 00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:47,240 Speaker 3: the schedule. What I do say though, and this is 722 00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:50,120 Speaker 3: relevant for our women listening. And I say women because 723 00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:53,280 Speaker 3: primarily I work with women with this disorder, but it's 724 00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:54,080 Speaker 3: relevant for MENTO. 725 00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:57,200 Speaker 2: We know lelyand that a number of. 726 00:31:57,120 --> 00:31:59,200 Speaker 3: People who are battling weight issues will have some issues 727 00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:03,560 Speaker 3: with inchilin regular or blood glucose regulation. And what is 728 00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:08,000 Speaker 3: different in their physiology and metabolism. Is that if you 729 00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:12,680 Speaker 3: have normal glucose regulation and you go and exercise, yes 730 00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:15,080 Speaker 3: you'll be hungry and you should eat, but your glucose 731 00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:17,640 Speaker 3: levels should return to normal fairly quickly. You shouldn't be 732 00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:21,920 Speaker 3: driving extreme hunger, whereas people with insulin resistance or hormonal 733 00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:24,800 Speaker 3: weight issues. What you may notice is that if you 734 00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:27,680 Speaker 3: exercise and it's been several hours since you've eaten, so say, 735 00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:29,920 Speaker 3: for example, you've eaten lunch and then you go for 736 00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:32,440 Speaker 3: a late afternoon walk, so it's three or four five 737 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:35,160 Speaker 3: hours since you've had a substantial meal, that if you 738 00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:38,720 Speaker 3: then exercise, you may notice that you have quite significant 739 00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:41,880 Speaker 3: drops in gluecose levels and get terrible carbohydrate and sugar cravings, 740 00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:44,240 Speaker 3: which almost prompts over eating, or you feel a bit faint. 741 00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:48,240 Speaker 3: So what I do say with my clients in terms 742 00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:51,760 Speaker 3: of recommendations, if you can manage to go before breakfast, fantastic. 743 00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:53,800 Speaker 3: I like that, but I then would want breakfast within 744 00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:56,840 Speaker 3: an hour or two. But I would prefer if you're 745 00:32:56,880 --> 00:32:59,440 Speaker 3: exercising in the afternoon, for it to be after lunch 746 00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:04,200 Speaker 3: or after afternoon tea to help control those blood glucose levels, because, 747 00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:06,320 Speaker 3: for example, if I have a client who hasn't eaten 748 00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:09,040 Speaker 3: since breakfast and they exercise at lunch, they will absolutely 749 00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:12,560 Speaker 3: be likely to overeat through the afternoon and even psychologically 750 00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:16,160 Speaker 3: justify eating more because they've had a session. So I've 751 00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:18,560 Speaker 3: been to the gym, so I can have afternoon tea 752 00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:22,080 Speaker 3: or in the case of late afternoon, so rush home, 753 00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:24,120 Speaker 3: get to the gym, put the clothes on, walk in 754 00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:26,760 Speaker 3: the door at five six o'clock, absolutely ravenous, and overeat 755 00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:29,920 Speaker 3: the homuson crackers. So again, I would prefer my clients, 756 00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:32,680 Speaker 3: particularly those with glucose and insulin issues, to eat their 757 00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:36,760 Speaker 3: afternoon snack that has protein and carbohydrate and then exercise, 758 00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:40,840 Speaker 3: just because I think it helps to prevent overeating that 759 00:33:40,920 --> 00:33:43,400 Speaker 3: can come both psychologically because we think we've made a 760 00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:46,280 Speaker 3: big effort with exercise, but also in real terms, if 761 00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:49,160 Speaker 3: your glucose goes low, you will have that incredible desire 762 00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:51,600 Speaker 3: to just stuff your face to get the glucose back. 763 00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:53,360 Speaker 3: And we've all been there where we've got over hungry, 764 00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:55,760 Speaker 3: but this will be more pronounced for that client group 765 00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:58,520 Speaker 3: that I see who have got often you know, significant 766 00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:02,200 Speaker 3: weight losses required of ten kilos and they really struggle 767 00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:04,560 Speaker 3: to keep cravings under control. So for that group of 768 00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:07,280 Speaker 3: people in general, you will be better to eat something 769 00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:10,560 Speaker 3: small before you go to prevent that glucose crash and 770 00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:13,279 Speaker 3: not over and preempt that overeating. 771 00:34:14,200 --> 00:34:18,080 Speaker 1: Is my experience definitely. And you mentioned working out faster 772 00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:19,840 Speaker 1: than the morning, which can work really well for a 773 00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:22,960 Speaker 1: lot of people. But where it wouldn't work so well 774 00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:26,080 Speaker 1: is if your goal is to get stronger and gain 775 00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:28,480 Speaker 1: some significant muscle mass, or if your goal is to 776 00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:30,640 Speaker 1: hit like a PB, like you're a runner and you 777 00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:34,160 Speaker 1: want to run your ten KPB or your I don't know, 778 00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:36,600 Speaker 1: a sprinter and the godless to get as fast as possible. 779 00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:38,560 Speaker 1: You actually want to do that with a little bit 780 00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:40,719 Speaker 1: of fuel on board. You don't necessarily have to eat 781 00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:42,840 Speaker 1: a full meal, but you want to do that with 782 00:34:42,880 --> 00:34:45,120 Speaker 1: a little bit of carbohydrate and just a little bit 783 00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:47,600 Speaker 1: of protein on board. So maybe a banana and a 784 00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:50,319 Speaker 1: touch of almond butter, or maybe a milky coffee with 785 00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:53,239 Speaker 1: a tiny amount of protein powder stirred through. So you 786 00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:54,920 Speaker 1: really want to do that with just a little bit 787 00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:58,160 Speaker 1: of fuel on board. Trying to go hard or maximize 788 00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:01,040 Speaker 1: gains or hit a PB isn't ideally going to be 789 00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:03,960 Speaker 1: done in a fasted sort of empty stomach kind of state. 790 00:35:04,280 --> 00:35:06,120 Speaker 1: You definitely want to do that with just a tiny 791 00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:08,080 Speaker 1: bit of fuel on board. Doesn't necessarily have to be 792 00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:08,640 Speaker 1: a whole meal. 793 00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:11,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, I work on about ten even twenty grams a 794 00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:13,520 Speaker 3: couple of Vita weights or a slice of bread for 795 00:35:13,600 --> 00:35:16,360 Speaker 3: that group. And again, you know, if I have clients 796 00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:18,600 Speaker 3: who have glucose levels, they don't have to have a 797 00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:21,319 Speaker 3: whole banana and sandwich before they go. But you're right, 798 00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:23,200 Speaker 3: just a little bit, even a couple of Vita weights 799 00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:25,960 Speaker 3: with a precisee of cheese, you may find that regulates 800 00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:28,320 Speaker 3: your energy better, so you can exercise and train harder, 801 00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:32,200 Speaker 3: and hence the benefits of exercising at a higher intensity 802 00:35:32,200 --> 00:35:34,799 Speaker 3: outweigh any of the negatives from not going in a 803 00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:38,200 Speaker 3: completely fasted state. So I think we would both agree 804 00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:40,960 Speaker 3: on the best time to exercise is when you're going 805 00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:41,279 Speaker 3: to do. 806 00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:44,080 Speaker 1: It absolutely and consistently. If you're going to go hard 807 00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:46,279 Speaker 1: for two weeks and do seven sessions in a row, 808 00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:47,680 Speaker 1: then you're going to fall off the wagon and do 809 00:35:47,719 --> 00:35:50,600 Speaker 1: nothing for week three and four. You kind of canceling 810 00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:53,279 Speaker 1: each other out. So just start slow, start steady, ease 811 00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:55,920 Speaker 1: yourself into it, and you know, just start with walking. 812 00:35:55,960 --> 00:35:58,360 Speaker 1: That's the first thing I did, you know, postpartum, I 813 00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:00,520 Speaker 1: think around about two three weeks and a lot of 814 00:36:00,520 --> 00:36:02,360 Speaker 1: the pain had died down. I just started walking and 815 00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:05,360 Speaker 1: I was consistently averaging, you know, ten to fifteen thousand 816 00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:07,399 Speaker 1: steps every single day. I didn't even get back into 817 00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:09,960 Speaker 1: the gym until six months postpartum. I think a lot 818 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:12,600 Speaker 1: of people were quite shocked by that. I did quite sporadically, 819 00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:14,400 Speaker 1: but then we had a really bad cold. Then we 820 00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:17,239 Speaker 1: got COVID and we started teething, and it was like 821 00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:18,960 Speaker 1: I'd go for a couple of days a week and 822 00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:20,440 Speaker 1: then I'd have a whole week or two. But I 823 00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:23,399 Speaker 1: just found it so hard to create that consistency with 824 00:36:23,600 --> 00:36:25,600 Speaker 1: gym or weight space workouts, and what I did do 825 00:36:25,640 --> 00:36:28,520 Speaker 1: every single day is walking. So I think that consistency 826 00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:31,080 Speaker 1: trumps everything. You've got to find something you enjoy, you 827 00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:32,879 Speaker 1: have to do it at a time of day where 828 00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:35,319 Speaker 1: it's going to work most days of the week, and 829 00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:37,960 Speaker 1: it has to be consistent long term, all right. So 830 00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:40,439 Speaker 1: that brings us to the end of the nutrition cash 831 00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:42,840 Speaker 1: for another Sunday if you haven't done so already. We 832 00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:45,560 Speaker 1: would love if you were to subscribe to the podcast, 833 00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:48,960 Speaker 1: and don't forget our recordings from our live events are 834 00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:52,320 Speaker 1: now available for anybody all around the world to listen 835 00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:55,000 Speaker 1: to if you weren't actually able to attend our recent 836 00:36:55,080 --> 00:36:58,239 Speaker 1: live tour, so just to refresher. The event covered things 837 00:36:58,280 --> 00:37:01,880 Speaker 1: like hormones and insulin resistant digestion and gut health and 838 00:37:01,960 --> 00:37:04,840 Speaker 1: of course fat loss, the psychology of eating and barriers 839 00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:07,839 Speaker 1: to fat loss as well. The recording is available at 840 00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:12,440 Speaker 1: the nutritioncouch dot com, which is it's seventy nine Australian dollars, 841 00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:14,720 Speaker 1: so I think that's something around I don't know, fifty 842 00:37:14,760 --> 00:37:17,240 Speaker 1: sixty US dollars and even less in terms of pounds 843 00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:19,600 Speaker 1: to be listening from somewhere in the UK.
