Just like 26 00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:12,560 Speaker 1: the protein powder, we could not find a brand that 27 00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:15,120 Speaker 1: we were one hundred percent happy with to recommend to 28 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 1: our clients, like our listeners will know. We offered, you know, 29 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:19,720 Speaker 1: talk about the Jari one, but the thing that bugged 30 00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:22,120 Speaker 1: us the most was that it still has artificial sweetness 31 00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:24,760 Speaker 1: in it, and it didn't have any functional ingredients in 32 00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 1: it as well. And there's a lot of brands and 33 00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:29,800 Speaker 1: companies these days that have done you know, functional type 34 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:32,120 Speaker 1: of hot chocolates, whether it helps with sleep, whether it 35 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:34,880 Speaker 1: helps with you know, collision for beauty. I've seen other 36 00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:37,959 Speaker 1: brands that have put different types of functional ingredients in it, 37 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:40,160 Speaker 1: and Susie and I were like, let's do this, but 38 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,520 Speaker 1: let's do it with the backing of you know, research 39 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:45,320 Speaker 1: and science and make sure that all the ingredients are 40 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:46,080 Speaker 1: very you know. 41 00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:46,920 Speaker 2: Clean and healthy. 42 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 1: The nutrition panel really works well for our ladies that 43 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 1: we know most of us have the goal of either 44 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:54,600 Speaker 1: being healthy or achieving some fat loss, and then as 45 00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:57,200 Speaker 1: well we want to add functional ingredients that have some 46 00:01:57,240 --> 00:01:59,360 Speaker 1: research in science behind them. We don't just want to 47 00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:01,800 Speaker 1: chuck a whole heap of ingredients in there and it 48 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 1: sounds good, but at the end of the day, they 49 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 1: don't actually really do anything with Let's be honest, a 50 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:08,280 Speaker 1: lot of the brands on the market, they're throwing a 51 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:10,920 Speaker 1: whole heap of ingredients in there, but there's no actual 52 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,519 Speaker 1: research in science to back it all. There's research and 53 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:15,720 Speaker 1: science to back the ingredient, but it doesn't have a 54 00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:17,960 Speaker 1: high enough dose of it in there to actually be 55 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,919 Speaker 1: a clinical dose to affect change in terms of what 56 00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 1: the ingredient was supposed to do. So we're very, very 57 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 1: excited to announce that we have a range of hot chocolates. 58 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 2: There's two. 59 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 1: Our first one is called Rest it's the Rest Hot 60 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 1: Chocolate Blend, and the second one is the Glow Hot 61 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:35,119 Speaker 1: Chocolate Blend. Did you want to talk us through each 62 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 1: of our new blends, SUSI sure. 63 00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 2: I thought I might as say give a little bit 64 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:41,160 Speaker 2: of background on how we went about formulating them, because 65 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 2: I know that people who follow the podcast or our 66 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 2: socials is always interested in that nitty gritty and we 67 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:51,800 Speaker 2: should say that Leanne and I don't argue very often 68 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:55,040 Speaker 2: when we're probably annoyed at each other, the text messages 69 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:58,680 Speaker 2: get a little bit terse or not replied to. But 70 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 2: definitely we had sort of strong feedback between us on 71 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 2: the hot chocolate mixes. So we were very lucky when 72 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:08,919 Speaker 2: we formulated our design by dietitians Nourish Protein Powder. We 73 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:12,360 Speaker 2: basically hit the jackpot straight away that we managed to 74 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:16,280 Speaker 2: get this amazing tasting formula with our formulation partners really quickly. 75 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:18,520 Speaker 2: So we only had a couple of samples and we 76 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:20,960 Speaker 2: were like, yep, ready to go. But that was not 77 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 2: our experience with pod Child. 78 00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 1: We had seventeen all up, Yeah. 79 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 2: We have seventeen. It was a lot like we've been 80 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:31,040 Speaker 2: trying to formulate this probably would it be six months? 81 00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:32,959 Speaker 1: Oh, I think over like we were supposed to be 82 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,360 Speaker 1: on the market in months ago, like winter is pretty 83 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 1: much done, but please support us, guys. 84 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 2: So we sort of had this very strong vision of 85 00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:42,080 Speaker 2: what we wanted. We knew that we wanted a more 86 00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 2: plant based or dairy free mix for skin. We knew 87 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:49,520 Speaker 2: that we wanted a very creamy dairy bas similar to 88 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 2: the taste as we could as the jow arrange that 89 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:55,320 Speaker 2: we both liked without the artificial sweetener. And it went 90 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 2: back and forth so many times. And keep in mind 91 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 2: that I'm in Sydney, so Leanne just it's quite close 92 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 2: to where we formulate. So she'll get the samples first 93 00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 2: and her and David will check them and then they'll 94 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 2: come to me several days later in the post and 95 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 2: then I have to do my taste, and then we 96 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 2: go back and forth. And actually we also got some 97 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:14,720 Speaker 2: help from a very good friend of ours, Marty and 98 00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 2: Michelle Tapower. Marty plays up in the Brisbane Broncos and 99 00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:21,799 Speaker 2: I've got a fantastic video of him doing an official 100 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 2: sample for us as we got close to the end. 101 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:26,760 Speaker 2: He was just gold talent. Can I say they really 102 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,719 Speaker 2: helped us out because Michelle, very very close friend of mine, 103 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 2: also drinks these drinks, so she had a lot of 104 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 2: strong feedback points which was so helpful. So it took 105 00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:37,920 Speaker 2: us so long to get to the formulations because we 106 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:43,600 Speaker 2: knew that they needed to taste amazing, because you know, ultimately, 107 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:46,920 Speaker 2: when it comes to that kind of reward treat style drink, 108 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:49,320 Speaker 2: if it doesn't taste amazing, we know that people wouldn't 109 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,840 Speaker 2: buy it. Again, you might buy it once, but so 110 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 2: we really have worked hard and we hope that you 111 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 2: enjoy the flavors and are as happy with them as 112 00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 2: we are. So the first one I guess was our 113 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 2: baby was the sep Pot Chocolate, which we've named Rest 114 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:05,760 Speaker 2: and it is a dairy based blend with milk powder 115 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,279 Speaker 2: to give that creamliness. It's got cocoa powder in there. 116 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:11,080 Speaker 2: We have added a small amount of sugar. Now that 117 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 2: might seem controversial because I know that a lot of 118 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 2: the hot chocolate blends out there that retail for excutiating 119 00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:20,719 Speaker 2: the high prices, can I say, may not have added sugar. 120 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:23,599 Speaker 2: But my argument was that I would rather something tasteful 121 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:25,680 Speaker 2: with a little bit of sugar added than using a 122 00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 2: whole lot of sweetness or particularly artificial sweetener, which we 123 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:31,839 Speaker 2: really didn't want in there. So we do have some 124 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:34,480 Speaker 2: natural sweetness, but we have added a tiny bit of sugar, 125 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:36,680 Speaker 2: so it comes out as five grams of sugars perserve, 126 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:38,960 Speaker 2: which I was very happy with. Keep in mind they're 127 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 2: very low calorie, they're only sixty seven calories per serve. 128 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:44,760 Speaker 2: And then we've added the functional ingredients with added some 129 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:48,760 Speaker 2: camera extracts or glycine, so some Deebe extract, l trip 130 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:51,120 Speaker 2: to fane, which is a powerful amino acid known to 131 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:54,479 Speaker 2: be associated with rest and sleep and inducing sleep, and 132 00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:57,839 Speaker 2: passion flower extract, And the reason that we've chosen those 133 00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 2: is that they're functional ingredients that do have an evidence space. 134 00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:03,800 Speaker 2: As dieticians, we feel very strongly that if we're recommending 135 00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:06,279 Speaker 2: a product their products we would recommend for our clients, 136 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:10,599 Speaker 2: we would consume ourselves and also have evidence to back 137 00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 2: those additions in amounts that have a therapeutic effect. So 138 00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 2: we're very very proud with that. It's a gorgeous, rich, 139 00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 2: creamy hot chocolate and in the end, when I was 140 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:23,120 Speaker 2: sampling it actually started to prefer it over my nightly Jarrah, 141 00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:26,040 Speaker 2: So I really can safely say that I was in 142 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 2: full happiness with that mix. And then the second one 143 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:32,400 Speaker 2: we've done is called Glow, which is our beauty mix, 144 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,200 Speaker 2: because we really wanted to first of all, have a 145 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 2: product that was dairy free for people who know that 146 00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 2: dairy doesn't agree with them, particularly for their skin. We've 147 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,359 Speaker 2: got a significant amount of hydrolyzed collagen in there, and 148 00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 2: it's then based on coconut milk powder. And again I 149 00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 2: naturally am I'm not a coconut person, but I have 150 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 2: to say I was pretty happy with these. The sugars 151 00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:54,400 Speaker 2: are as well as two point five grams per serve, 152 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:57,240 Speaker 2: It's only fifty two calories, got three grounds of protein, 153 00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:00,160 Speaker 2: It's got some beautiful vitamin C in it to support 154 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:03,120 Speaker 2: healthy skin. Collen's i'm Q ten again with a strong 155 00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:05,599 Speaker 2: evidence bace just for the health of the cell and 156 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 2: hydrolyzed collagen a good amount two point five grams per serve. 157 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 2: So we are really finally very happy. It took a 158 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 2: long time, but we were happy to stick to it. 159 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:20,000 Speaker 2: And the packaging is gorgeous, similar to our gorgeous designer Mandy, 160 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:23,480 Speaker 2: who has created the most gorgeous nourish protein backs has 161 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:26,840 Speaker 2: created just beautiful. Low is like a golden color. You've 162 00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 2: seen them this morning, and rest is like a milky 163 00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 2: kind of chocolate color. They're really beautiful with gold and yeah, 164 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 2: we can't wait for you to try them, and we're 165 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,440 Speaker 2: just so happy with how they've turned out, and hopefully 166 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 2: the pricing point is also competitive. We've really tried to 167 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:44,360 Speaker 2: not some of the hot chocolates in the market retail 168 00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:46,960 Speaker 2: for as much as eighty dollars, and we really wanted 169 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,840 Speaker 2: to create something that was budget friendly, so you'll find 170 00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 2: that they fit in with the budget as well. You're 171 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:54,239 Speaker 2: getting a good therapeutic product, but also one that doesn't 172 00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:56,120 Speaker 2: break the bank, so you can include it regularly in 173 00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:58,320 Speaker 2: your diet. Yeah, so they retail. 174 00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:00,880 Speaker 1: We've got our bag the two hundred grad So the 175 00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 1: serving size is slightly different, I think it's Yeah, So 176 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 1: it's a serving size of the Glow is twelve grams, 177 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 1: So keep in mind that the serving size is based 178 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 1: on the therapeutic dose of the are functional ingredients that 179 00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 1: we've added, and that's why it's a slightly different amount. 180 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 1: So with Rest it's fifteen grams a serve and with 181 00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 1: Glow it's twelve grams a serve. So in Glow you 182 00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:21,760 Speaker 1: get sixteen and a half serves a pack, and in 183 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:24,200 Speaker 1: Rest you get thirteen nearly thirteen and a half serves 184 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 1: a pack. Now, both blends are certified pluten free. Again, 185 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:29,520 Speaker 1: we've paid additional because we know we have a lot 186 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:32,560 Speaker 1: of ladies serve Seaiact disease or even men who follow us, 187 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:34,440 Speaker 1: so we really wanted to make sure that we could 188 00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 1: handle our hearts say that this is a safe product 189 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 1: for all of our listeners with seaiact disease. As Zuzie said, 190 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 1: we chose to include a small amount of sugar in there, 191 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,960 Speaker 1: again a very small amount, so sugar isn't bad. Really, 192 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:47,800 Speaker 1: the dose makes the poisons, so two point five grams 193 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:50,679 Speaker 1: in glow and around five grams in rest, but it 194 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:53,600 Speaker 1: really is there because one of the brands. Zuzie obviously 195 00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 1: loves the Jarrah. I like another brand, but I won't 196 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:58,480 Speaker 1: mention what it is on air because I'm going to 197 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:01,320 Speaker 1: say something negative about it because the artificial sweetener in 198 00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 1: there is overpowering, Like you drink it and it's so 199 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:08,200 Speaker 1: much like I used mobably a third of the recommended amount, 200 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:11,319 Speaker 1: because it's so so so sweet. And that's the thing 201 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:15,160 Speaker 1: with artificial but also natural sweetness, even natural based sweetness 202 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:17,840 Speaker 1: like steavier such as we've used, when you use too 203 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 1: much of them, it's overpowering because these sweetness, whether they're 204 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 1: artificial or natural, are so much sweeter than what actual 205 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:28,600 Speaker 1: sugar is. Sometimes just the aftertaste of it is far 206 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:30,559 Speaker 1: too much. And that's what we were founding when we 207 00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:33,959 Speaker 1: added just steavier and a base of the other sweetening. 208 00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:37,520 Speaker 1: The natural sweetener we use was th Simeaton as well, 209 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:40,320 Speaker 1: and so when we just did that, it was just 210 00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 1: too sweet. Like Souzie and I both had their feedback. 211 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:44,960 Speaker 1: We're like, oh, it's too much. It's too sweet, Like 212 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:46,800 Speaker 1: even if you pulled it back a little bit, it 213 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:48,840 Speaker 1: was still too much. So we thought that we'd balance 214 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 1: it out with a little bit of natural sucros, but 215 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 1: also a little bit of natural Sevier as well. Is 216 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:55,400 Speaker 1: that all I wanted to say. They're both designed to 217 00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:57,800 Speaker 1: be purely mixed with water, Butzuzie and I both will 218 00:09:57,880 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 1: just add a little bit dash of cold milk in 219 00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 1: the end. And then the glow one is dairy free, 220 00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:06,240 Speaker 1: but it's not vegan because we have used argealized collagen 221 00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:08,320 Speaker 1: and it's from a bovine based so it's not vegan. 222 00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:09,679 Speaker 2: And they're gluten free. 223 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, they're both gluten free. Yeah, yeah, I mentioned that. 224 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 2: We basically can't wait to hear what you think you'll 225 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 2: find them at designed by dieticians our website, and I 226 00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 2: hope that you love them as much as the protein powders. 227 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:24,560 Speaker 2: So fingers crossed, but we're really happy with them, and 228 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:27,960 Speaker 2: this is our second out of three launchers we're planning 229 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:30,080 Speaker 2: to do one other product before the end of the year. 230 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:32,440 Speaker 2: But yeah, we hope that you like the hot chocolate 231 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:36,400 Speaker 2: as much as we've enjoyed making them for you. All right, Lynn, Well, 232 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:38,199 Speaker 2: that brings to a topic that I've wanted to talk 233 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:40,360 Speaker 2: about for quite a few weeks on the podcast. And 234 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:42,960 Speaker 2: I'm laughing because it makes me laugh. I don't even 235 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 2: know why I'm laughing. But I've been very sick, and 236 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 2: I've had, prior to this, a lot of clients who 237 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:51,480 Speaker 2: have been unwell at certain times. You know, it's been 238 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:53,600 Speaker 2: in a longer winter in the sense that the temperatures 239 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:57,040 Speaker 2: have been extremely cold, there's been some nasty, nasty bugs around, 240 00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,319 Speaker 2: and so quite regularly I'll have clients message me and 241 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 2: say that they're see or they're not feeling well, and 242 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:05,840 Speaker 2: no problem. But one thing I have noticed several times 243 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:08,200 Speaker 2: is that i'll get a text from a client, because 244 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:10,959 Speaker 2: my clients text me every day, they'll say they're sick 245 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:12,920 Speaker 2: or off work, and then they'll send me like a 246 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:16,959 Speaker 2: full food diary where they've eaten everything all day. And 247 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:19,400 Speaker 2: I'm sort of a bit like, yeah, but you said 248 00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 2: you are sick, Like do you are you hungry to 249 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:26,439 Speaker 2: eat that much food? Because generally when you're sick, I 250 00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:29,679 Speaker 2: would argue, in most cases, you're not hungry. Like certainly myself, 251 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:32,679 Speaker 2: I've completely lost my sense of taste and smell. So 252 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:35,240 Speaker 2: even though sometimes I'll eat, I'm not even enjoying it. 253 00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 2: I can't even taste the food at the moment, which 254 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,880 Speaker 2: makes me think, leanne that sometimes when people say they're 255 00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 2: sick and they still eat, it's suggestive that maybe they're 256 00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 2: eating a bit on autoq and they like to eat 257 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 2: as opposed to needing to eat. So I wanted to 258 00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 2: chat today about whether we do need to eat when 259 00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:53,319 Speaker 2: we're sick. Now, certainly I'm not saying I expect you 260 00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:56,040 Speaker 2: to starve yourself. But what I'm saying is that if 261 00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 2: you are unwell and in bed, you don't need to 262 00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:01,679 Speaker 2: take yourself out halfway through the afternoon and have afternoon tea. 263 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 2: You're going to be okay to skip a couple of meals. 264 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 2: So I just had given that example to my clients 265 00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:09,000 Speaker 2: because they were a bit more like, oh, well, I 266 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 2: thought it's important that I ate, And I said, well, 267 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:14,439 Speaker 2: it is important to eat, but not when one you're sick, 268 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:17,120 Speaker 2: or two you're really not hungry, or not even tasting 269 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 2: or enjoying the food. Like it's not good for metabolism 270 00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 2: to be starving for weeks at a time, but skipping 271 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:25,079 Speaker 2: a meal every now and again is no cause for concern. 272 00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:27,679 Speaker 2: And certainly, if you're un well, I wouldn't be expecting 273 00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:30,640 Speaker 2: you to eat hardly anything because you probably are sleep resting. 274 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:32,720 Speaker 2: You certainly don't need to get up and eat a 275 00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:35,320 Speaker 2: meal if you're not hungry. So the first thing I 276 00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:37,320 Speaker 2: wanted to talk a little bit about was the sort 277 00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 2: that belief you starve a fever and feed a cold. Now, 278 00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,079 Speaker 2: it is a little bit of an old wives tale. 279 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:46,040 Speaker 2: There's no scientific evidence to show that starving a fever 280 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 2: reduces the length of a fever, or the same there's 281 00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:52,199 Speaker 2: no evidence to show that feeding a cold is important. 282 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:55,599 Speaker 2: What we know about immune function is that your baseline 283 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:59,120 Speaker 2: immune function will predict how well or how quickly you recover. 284 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:02,200 Speaker 2: So there's a couple of evidence pieces to show that 285 00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:04,199 Speaker 2: if you do suddenly get sick with a head cold 286 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:06,480 Speaker 2: and super load the vitamin C, it can shorten the 287 00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:09,040 Speaker 2: length of a cold. But certainly it won't stop you 288 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:10,880 Speaker 2: getting the cold, and it won't just put an end 289 00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:12,800 Speaker 2: to it. So that's all a little bit of myths 290 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:15,680 Speaker 2: and old wife tails and certainly Pays and Fuels a 291 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:19,000 Speaker 2: very saturated supplement company where there's a myriad of cold, 292 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:21,959 Speaker 2: loose supplements to take, and I've had to say to 293 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:23,839 Speaker 2: or fuel my clients, Look, you don't need that much 294 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:26,400 Speaker 2: think called vitamin C like you're having too much, and 295 00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:29,720 Speaker 2: you can certainly have too much of those concentrated vitamins. 296 00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:31,600 Speaker 2: So the best thing we can all do for immune 297 00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:33,839 Speaker 2: function is eat well most of the time, rather than 298 00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:36,040 Speaker 2: think that a one off supplement is the key. So 299 00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:39,560 Speaker 2: that's why baseline nutrition, getting those seven to ten serves 300 00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 2: of brightly colored fruit and vege, getting our vitamins each day, 301 00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:44,679 Speaker 2: keeping on top of our iron intake, which I've had 302 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:46,880 Speaker 2: three clients in the last month of nine infusions, so 303 00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:48,960 Speaker 2: we're certainly not all on top of our iron levels. 304 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:52,400 Speaker 2: They're the things that will impact immune function. But when 305 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:55,280 Speaker 2: you're actually sick of all the things we need to 306 00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:58,600 Speaker 2: do is just keep hydrated. Because if you are very 307 00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 2: unwell in terms of losing all life fluid from sneezing 308 00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:05,680 Speaker 2: and mucous and not potentially eating very much, the dehydration 309 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:08,480 Speaker 2: that comes from losing a lot of fluid and not 310 00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:11,679 Speaker 2: rehydrating will make the symptoms worse, and it will also 311 00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 2: make it more difficult for the immune system to function optimally. 312 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 2: So in that instance, things like hot tea, soup, juices 313 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:23,600 Speaker 2: are important to keep hydrated. But you certainly don't need 314 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:26,160 Speaker 2: to be sitting down to eat solid food, particularly if 315 00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:29,160 Speaker 2: you don't feel like it. So what I would urge 316 00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 2: you to do is really question yourself if you are 317 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:34,400 Speaker 2: off work, sick, or you're in bed and you're continually 318 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:37,000 Speaker 2: eating through to me, it suggests people are eating on 319 00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:39,160 Speaker 2: autoq and not in touch with their hunger at all. 320 00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:41,760 Speaker 2: Now there's something to feel guilty about. We all like 321 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:43,640 Speaker 2: to eat, but it comes a point where you're literally 322 00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 2: eating when you're not hungry, and it is a good 323 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:48,680 Speaker 2: thing to check in within your body, because a couple 324 00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:50,800 Speaker 2: of days of light eating or not eating very much 325 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:52,520 Speaker 2: at all is not going to be a bad thing. 326 00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:55,000 Speaker 2: The most important thing, if your own will, is just 327 00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 2: maintaining your hydration status. So if you can tolerate hot tea, 328 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:02,440 Speaker 2: hot water with lemon, a little bit of soup, but 329 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:04,560 Speaker 2: I certainly wouldn't be stressing if you've had a day 330 00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 2: or two of not eating very much solid food because 331 00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:10,120 Speaker 2: probably your body needs its energy to be fighting the 332 00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:13,520 Speaker 2: infection rather than digesting food at that time, which is 333 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:16,520 Speaker 2: why you're not overly hungry. So the take home message 334 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:20,000 Speaker 2: is if you're not hungry, don't eat, especially if you're sick. 335 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:21,920 Speaker 2: And it was just something I sort of wanted to 336 00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:23,840 Speaker 2: chat about a little bit because it's certainly something I've 337 00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:26,240 Speaker 2: noticed with several of my clients, and having just gone 338 00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:28,800 Speaker 2: through it myself, I can safely tell you that nothing 339 00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:31,120 Speaker 2: I'm eating tastes very good, so it's certainly not reason 340 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:31,920 Speaker 2: to be eating more. 341 00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:34,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, And I think the biggest thing when some of 342 00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:36,600 Speaker 1: my clients do so they are and well, it's more 343 00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:39,320 Speaker 1: of that eating for comfort, which I can completely understand, 344 00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:41,440 Speaker 1: which I sort of turn more that head hunger. So 345 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:43,680 Speaker 1: I just sort of gently remind them, like, I appreciate 346 00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:45,520 Speaker 1: that you're sick and you know you're you're home and 347 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:47,840 Speaker 1: you're not feeling that great, But is it the tummy 348 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:50,040 Speaker 1: hunger that you're eating for or is it that head hunger? 349 00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:53,040 Speaker 1: And even just reminding them that it's still important to 350 00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:55,320 Speaker 1: sort of portion out treats if that's what they're feeling like, 351 00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:57,360 Speaker 1: because they are feeling a little bit so over themselves, 352 00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:59,720 Speaker 1: and you know, like it's not nice feeling sick like 353 00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 1: we do. Sort of often we have that sort of 354 00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:03,920 Speaker 1: mindset we think, oh, well, i'm home, i'm sick, I 355 00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:05,760 Speaker 1: deserve a bit of a treat. Or you know, you're 356 00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:07,920 Speaker 1: lazing on the catch watching movies because you're you know, 357 00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:10,040 Speaker 1: you're a bit unwell, you can't go into work, whatnot. 358 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:13,280 Speaker 1: It is still important to just remember that your baseline 359 00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:16,640 Speaker 1: nutrition is still important from an immune perspective to get better. 360 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:18,960 Speaker 1: So I always say to my clients, put the good 361 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:21,560 Speaker 1: food in first, even if it's a smaller portion, and 362 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:23,560 Speaker 1: then put in the sole food afterwards. You can kind 363 00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:25,720 Speaker 1: of quote unquote top up your soul afterwards, is what 364 00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:28,400 Speaker 1: I generally say. So it's still important that even if 365 00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:30,640 Speaker 1: you're not eating much. You know, you're not just eating 366 00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:32,720 Speaker 1: half a block of chocolate for your lunch. You're still 367 00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:35,520 Speaker 1: trying to have something that's nourishing and got some ingredients 368 00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:39,080 Speaker 1: in there. Your vitamins, r minuals and antioxidants. Your fibers 369 00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:41,280 Speaker 1: are really important from a gut health perspective because a 370 00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:43,400 Speaker 1: large part of our immune system is actually made in 371 00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:45,600 Speaker 1: our gut. So please don't forget about your gut health 372 00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:47,800 Speaker 1: when you're sick. Probably a little bit too late once 373 00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:49,880 Speaker 1: you're already sick, but it's one of the most important 374 00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:52,240 Speaker 1: things we can do from an immunity perspective is make 375 00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:55,440 Speaker 1: sure that we're having a really great, diverse gut microbiome. 376 00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:57,440 Speaker 1: So probably all I wanted to say there sus You 377 00:16:57,480 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 1: definitely agree with all you said. But I feel like 378 00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:02,600 Speaker 1: for a lot of people, it's more that emotional eating, 379 00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:05,159 Speaker 1: or that eating because you know, I'm sick, poor me 380 00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:07,200 Speaker 1: kind of thing, more so than the fact that they're 381 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:09,719 Speaker 1: actually necessarily hungry, or like you said, it's more just 382 00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:13,280 Speaker 1: on autopilot. We're so used to eating breakfast, morning tea, lunch, 383 00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:16,400 Speaker 1: afternoon tea, dinner, and some snacks after dinner that it's 384 00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:19,280 Speaker 1: almost weird to skip morning tea. It's almost weird to, 385 00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 1: you know, have a smaller portion of dinner if we're 386 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:24,000 Speaker 1: not feeling unwell. And we haven't really moved much, particularly 387 00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:26,280 Speaker 1: about exercises down for the week, because we don't really 388 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:29,720 Speaker 1: recommend our clients exercise much, particularly they are quite unwell. 389 00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:32,679 Speaker 2: And I should say, what I see is the toast. 390 00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:35,720 Speaker 2: All of a sudden, everyone's eating all this toast at night. Now, 391 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:38,960 Speaker 2: there's no scientific reason you need toast if you're unwell. 392 00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 2: I like toast what I'm sick, susy, like have some soup. 393 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:44,520 Speaker 2: But yeah, I think just question some of those toystes 394 00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:46,119 Speaker 2: because I think sometimes we use it as a bit 395 00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:49,960 Speaker 2: of an excuse to eat some of those foods when 396 00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:52,800 Speaker 2: in many cases we really don't need them. So anyway, 397 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:54,600 Speaker 2: just have a little look at your hunger and check 398 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:56,919 Speaker 2: in with that before you superload the toast in honey 399 00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:58,960 Speaker 2: and jam, just because you've got a little bit of 400 00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:00,360 Speaker 2: a sniffle, all right. 401 00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:02,359 Speaker 1: Moving on to our next product, which is our product 402 00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:05,040 Speaker 1: review section of the week. And now normally we review 403 00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:07,800 Speaker 1: a wonderful product, but I have a little berk to 404 00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:10,240 Speaker 1: pick with a product today that I found, Susie, I 405 00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:12,520 Speaker 1: found some wonderful options in Aldi. I've been doing a 406 00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:15,639 Speaker 1: little series on my Instagram some Audi product finds. If 407 00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:17,560 Speaker 1: you haven't seen that, go pop over to my instagram, 408 00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:19,600 Speaker 1: which is the fitness Dietian. I've got a couple of 409 00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:22,159 Speaker 1: Aldi series up there. There's some wonderful products I've found 410 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:25,640 Speaker 1: and also some not so wonderful products. So I picked 411 00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:28,080 Speaker 1: this one up and it is the Hillcrest brand. So 412 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:30,320 Speaker 1: this is I think a brand that's only found in Aldi. 413 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 1: It's the low sugar coconut chocolate Delight Bars. Now they've 414 00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:36,520 Speaker 1: done well with the marketing on the SUSI because the 415 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:39,400 Speaker 1: front of pack it looks like a coconut covered chocolate 416 00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:41,800 Speaker 1: bar like, it looks delicious, let's be honest, and it's 417 00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:44,399 Speaker 1: got low sugar in big bold lettuce. So I think 418 00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:47,960 Speaker 1: from a front up pack marketing perspective, most people would 419 00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:49,919 Speaker 1: pick this up and think that this is a great choice. 420 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 1: It looks delicious, it looks like a snack, it looks 421 00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:55,960 Speaker 1: like a good, enjoyable snack, and it's low sugar. And 422 00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:58,280 Speaker 1: the front of pack says an excellent source of dietary 423 00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:01,480 Speaker 1: fiber and less than five gram of sugar per hundred grams. 424 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:03,960 Speaker 1: So that's a little bit sneaky in itself because most 425 00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:06,199 Speaker 1: times when we talk about sugar, we want, particularly if 426 00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 1: it's a bar like it's a portioned amount, we probably 427 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:10,680 Speaker 1: want to know the sugar amount per bar, not per 428 00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:14,840 Speaker 1: hundred grams. So my OK with this product isn't necessarily 429 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:18,600 Speaker 1: the nutritional information. It's more the ingredients in it. So 430 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:21,920 Speaker 1: if we go to the nutritional information one bar, which 431 00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:24,200 Speaker 1: is only thirty two grams, so they're only small. There's 432 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:27,560 Speaker 1: five bars per pack. I can't remember what they retail for, Susie. 433 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:29,679 Speaker 1: They're quite you know, Aldi has quite affordable choices, so 434 00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:31,560 Speaker 1: I think it was somewhere within the range of about 435 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:34,680 Speaker 1: I don't know, three to five dollars, so fairly affordable. 436 00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:37,000 Speaker 1: About a dollar or so a bar, I think from memory. 437 00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:40,440 Speaker 1: So one bar thirty two grams has about six hundred 438 00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:43,120 Speaker 1: killo jueles. This is roughly about one hundred and fifty calories. 439 00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:46,359 Speaker 1: Protein wires one point two grams, so quite low. Fat 440 00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:49,320 Speaker 1: is eleven point three gram so very high in fat, 441 00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:52,760 Speaker 1: with ten point three grams of that coming from saturated vats, 442 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:55,480 Speaker 1: so very high and saturated fat, and we'll see why 443 00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:58,840 Speaker 1: in a moment. Nine point three grams of carbohydrate with 444 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:01,240 Speaker 1: one point two grams sugar, so the sugars are very 445 00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:04,399 Speaker 1: very low. The dietary fiber is seven point two grams, 446 00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:06,520 Speaker 1: which is whopping like that's a huge amount in a 447 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:08,680 Speaker 1: tiny bar. I don't almost go so far as to 448 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:11,439 Speaker 1: say it's too much in a tiny bar, with the 449 00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:15,240 Speaker 1: bulk of the fiber being polydextros at six point eight grams. 450 00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 1: Now there's also a wreath retol at two point two grams, 451 00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:19,879 Speaker 1: so this is where all the sweetness come in, a 452 00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:22,520 Speaker 1: veryth retole at two point two grams, glyceol at point 453 00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:26,399 Speaker 1: eight grams, subatolet three grams, and a very minuscular amount 454 00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:29,760 Speaker 1: of sodium fifteen grams. So nothing to really worry about there. Now, 455 00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:32,119 Speaker 1: if we go to the ingredients, SUSI, we blow the 456 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:35,440 Speaker 1: suck because it's very tiny. Each coconut bar with a moist, 457 00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:38,560 Speaker 1: chewy coconut in case in a delicious milk chocolate coating, 458 00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:42,200 Speaker 1: says the wording on the packet. The ingredients are desiccated 459 00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:45,879 Speaker 1: coconut at thirty percent, a milk compound chocolate at twenty 460 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:50,920 Speaker 1: three percent, comprising of palm oil, sweetener, bulking agent, milk solids, 461 00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:55,159 Speaker 1: alkalized cocoa powder, inulin which is a type of prebotic fiber. 462 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 1: More mulsifiers, are some soy, some natural chocolate, more sweeteners, 463 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:02,240 Speaker 1: and some salt. So that's all the ingredients in the 464 00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:05,760 Speaker 1: milk compound chocolate. Next, we've got some bulking agents, some 465 00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:08,000 Speaker 1: hermcateans how don't even pronounce. 466 00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:12,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, humans, they're processing age, some. 467 00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:15,359 Speaker 1: Sort of processing age starting with H, some some botes, 468 00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:19,680 Speaker 1: some coconut oil, some coconut milk powder, some jelling agents, 469 00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:23,000 Speaker 1: some more palm oil, some more emulsifiers, some flavors, and 470 00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:26,359 Speaker 1: some monk fruit extract extract which is actually a natural 471 00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:27,200 Speaker 1: type of sweetener. 472 00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:29,400 Speaker 2: So my issue with this. 473 00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:32,440 Speaker 1: Besides the incredibly long ingredient li with SUSI, which, let's 474 00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:34,480 Speaker 1: be honest, a little bit of that we actually don't 475 00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:37,360 Speaker 1: even know. When you look at the top two ingredients, 476 00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:41,200 Speaker 1: it's descated coconut and the chocolate coating for the bar, 477 00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:45,200 Speaker 1: so that essentially adds up to fifty three percent. So 478 00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:47,400 Speaker 1: my question is, when you look at that big long 479 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:50,640 Speaker 1: ingredients and this is a coconut chocolate bar, the top 480 00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:53,479 Speaker 1: two ingredients being coconut and chocolate is fifty three percent, 481 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:56,240 Speaker 1: what the heck is in the other forty seven percent 482 00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:58,800 Speaker 1: of the bar? That's my question, and that's the question 483 00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:00,879 Speaker 1: that I think we should be asking ourselves when we 484 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:03,640 Speaker 1: look at these labels and they're supposed to be marketed 485 00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:06,560 Speaker 1: and sold to us as a quote unquote healthy product, 486 00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:09,680 Speaker 1: what is the other forty seven percent of that ingredient list? 487 00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:12,679 Speaker 1: Not really the ingredients that I know too much about, 488 00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:14,840 Speaker 1: and there is no way I would ever myself eat 489 00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:17,080 Speaker 1: this because I know that with my sensitive gut, I 490 00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:19,760 Speaker 1: would look like I'm six months pregnant or more. And 491 00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:21,520 Speaker 1: there's no way i'd ever write something about this into 492 00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:24,840 Speaker 1: a client's meal plan because it just is so so 493 00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:28,200 Speaker 1: so ultra processed and I don't really ever see any 494 00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:30,720 Speaker 1: real nutritional benefits. I don't mind some of the ultra 495 00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:32,760 Speaker 1: process foods, but I do want them to have some 496 00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:34,720 Speaker 1: better quality fibers. I do want them to have a 497 00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:36,600 Speaker 1: little bit of protein in it, or even a good 498 00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:38,480 Speaker 1: amount of carb to kind of keep you know, blood 499 00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:40,840 Speaker 1: sugar level stable. Even nine grams of carb for me 500 00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:43,120 Speaker 1: is a little bit too little for my active lady 501 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:45,640 Speaker 1: is that this is all just fat basically, but it's 502 00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:48,320 Speaker 1: too much carb to be a keithogenic product. So for me, 503 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:51,560 Speaker 1: I don't really feel like it has a place anywhere. 504 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:53,639 Speaker 1: I just I'm not loving the ingredient list and I'm 505 00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:55,119 Speaker 1: not loving that. I have no idea what the other 506 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:56,720 Speaker 1: forty seven percent of the virus. 507 00:22:57,040 --> 00:22:59,719 Speaker 2: What are your thoughts, Beautiful summary, Land, I think if 508 00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:01,240 Speaker 2: it looks like a chocolate bar, it probably is a 509 00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:05,159 Speaker 2: chocolate bar. It's basically an ultra process food. You know, 510 00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:06,960 Speaker 2: these are the kind of foods we're talking about that 511 00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:09,359 Speaker 2: just because it looks healthier, is made to sound healthy, 512 00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:11,560 Speaker 2: doesn't mean that it is. And if you scan an 513 00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:13,600 Speaker 2: ingredient list in it's as long as that with a 514 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:16,120 Speaker 2: range of ingredients you don't recognize, do you're well clean? 515 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:17,679 Speaker 2: You better go and have a bounty bar in my 516 00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:20,720 Speaker 2: mind than to eat that. So yeah, I think that 517 00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:24,200 Speaker 2: they masquerade as health food. You know, I certainly wrote 518 00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:27,080 Speaker 2: it up as a product as a masquerading as a 519 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:30,080 Speaker 2: health option. There's certainly a demand for it because people 520 00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:32,840 Speaker 2: want to have things that are perceived as naughty but 521 00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:35,400 Speaker 2: are actually good for them, and unfortunately, there's very few 522 00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:38,520 Speaker 2: of those things that exist. So yeah, I think that 523 00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:40,679 Speaker 2: we see them all the time. There's many of them 524 00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:43,760 Speaker 2: in the health food section in audi. The thing is 525 00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:45,600 Speaker 2: that they're a lot cheaper than in the health food section, 526 00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:47,280 Speaker 2: because products like that in the health food section of 527 00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:49,320 Speaker 2: Willis and Colors tend to be around the ten dollar mark, 528 00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:51,880 Speaker 2: so they're at a much cheaper price point. But don't 529 00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 2: kid yourself, you're actually better to go and have the 530 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:56,080 Speaker 2: chocolate bar and acknowledge it as such, then have this 531 00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:58,879 Speaker 2: not be overly full and think that you've had a 532 00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:02,840 Speaker 2: healthy snack. You're getting nothing positive nutritionally from that product basically, 533 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:05,399 Speaker 2: so there's really nothing good we can say about it. 534 00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:08,280 Speaker 2: So dear well clear now in saying that, I too 535 00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:10,240 Speaker 2: had been an AUDI and recently and they've got quite 536 00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:12,359 Speaker 2: a few nut type products like the nutbars that are 537 00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:15,760 Speaker 2: actually fine. You know, they're similar to the mainstream supermarket products, 538 00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:18,040 Speaker 2: and they've got set up to ten grams of protein 539 00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:21,480 Speaker 2: and a bit of carbs and certainly much better nutritionally 540 00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:24,199 Speaker 2: in my mind than that product. And all I can 541 00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:25,600 Speaker 2: say is, yeah, if it looks like a chocolate but 542 00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:27,720 Speaker 2: it probably is, so go and have a bounty instead 543 00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:30,080 Speaker 2: and do self a favor if that's what you're craving. 544 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:34,080 Speaker 2: So finally, which is not a dissimilar topic, our listener 545 00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:35,920 Speaker 2: question of the week comes from our Instagram, which is 546 00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:37,520 Speaker 2: where we get all our listen to questions. So if 547 00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:39,280 Speaker 2: you do have questions, pop them through, and we often 548 00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:41,679 Speaker 2: scroll through before an episode and grab one off. And 549 00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:43,440 Speaker 2: this is a topic that I am sure we've also 550 00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:45,840 Speaker 2: had before, similar to last episode, but I think it's 551 00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:48,399 Speaker 2: a topic that comes up time and time again. And 552 00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:51,639 Speaker 2: one thing I'm constantly reiterating to my own clients about 553 00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:54,040 Speaker 2: is what is the correct macro balance of afternoon tea. 554 00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 2: Now I love afternoon tea. I think it's right up 555 00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:58,880 Speaker 2: there with lunch is the most important meal because if 556 00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:01,399 Speaker 2: you have a well balanced, suff new tea, in my experience, 557 00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 2: it stops over eating at night. And so many people 558 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:07,080 Speaker 2: are guilty of over consuming a large dinner treats after 559 00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:09,879 Speaker 2: dinner snack food when they get home from work. Whereas 560 00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:12,160 Speaker 2: if you have a top up of fuel three four 561 00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:14,600 Speaker 2: hours after lunch, which translates to about four pm for 562 00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:17,080 Speaker 2: most people, you'll find that you're much more in control 563 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:19,440 Speaker 2: of your energy and you're craving slate afternoon and you'll 564 00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:21,959 Speaker 2: eat less at dinner. But it certainly depends on what 565 00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:24,879 Speaker 2: you choose. Now, my most common feedback to clients is 566 00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:26,440 Speaker 2: they'll send me their food diaries and it will have 567 00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:28,960 Speaker 2: a bar on it. Now, certainly they might be bars 568 00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:32,000 Speaker 2: that I've recommended or suggested, whether they're a protein bar 569 00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:34,520 Speaker 2: or a nut based bar, but I'm like, no, no, no, no, no, 570 00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:36,960 Speaker 2: that is not what we agreed on. Whenever you have 571 00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:39,000 Speaker 2: a snack, it must have fresh food. It has to 572 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:41,160 Speaker 2: be a mini meal, so you don't just grab a bar. 573 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:43,640 Speaker 2: I think that's a snack. No, that is not well balanced. 574 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:45,399 Speaker 2: That's good when you've got no other option, that you're 575 00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:47,480 Speaker 2: at a servo, and it's better than picking up the 576 00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:49,840 Speaker 2: chocolate bar. But even now at servos you can often 577 00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:51,399 Speaker 2: get a bit of fruit or some cut up edgies, 578 00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:54,040 Speaker 2: so it's not an excuse. So you have to always 579 00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:56,520 Speaker 2: have fresh food as part of your snack, whether that's 580 00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:59,200 Speaker 2: some berries, whether that's some mandarin, whether that's some cut 581 00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:02,080 Speaker 2: up carrots, cumbers, whether you take a box of veggies 582 00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:03,480 Speaker 2: to snack on on the way home in the car. 583 00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:06,840 Speaker 2: It has to have fresh food first and then for me, 584 00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:10,560 Speaker 2: an ideal nutritional macrobalance is about fifteen to twenty grams 585 00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:14,840 Speaker 2: of protein and roughly two hundred calories, So food combinations 586 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:17,800 Speaker 2: that fit that would be some protein yogurt with some 587 00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:20,399 Speaker 2: berries and maybe a little bit of granola or some nuts. 588 00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:23,119 Speaker 2: If it was a nutbar, it would also include a 589 00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 2: piece of fruit and some cut up veggies. It might 590 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:27,960 Speaker 2: be a couple of cruskets or corn thins with cottage 591 00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:31,600 Speaker 2: cheese or light yardsberg cheese and tomato on top. So 592 00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:34,240 Speaker 2: I want you to make those snacks into mini meals 593 00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:36,639 Speaker 2: rather than just grabbing a snack pack of cheese and 594 00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:38,919 Speaker 2: crackers and think you good to go. You've got to 595 00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:42,400 Speaker 2: complete it because that will help slow digestion, that will 596 00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:44,360 Speaker 2: give you the dietary fiber that you need to keep 597 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:47,440 Speaker 2: you full for two three more hours and you'll feel 598 00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:49,920 Speaker 2: just much better. Whereas if you grab a bar, even 599 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:52,199 Speaker 2: if it's a good bar an hour, lady, you're going 600 00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:54,960 Speaker 2: to be hungry because it doesn't contain that bulk that 601 00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 2: you will get from fresh, natural, unprocessed food, and bars 602 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:01,359 Speaker 2: are down my list of priority. Does someone have some 603 00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:04,680 Speaker 2: yogat with granola and berries or crackers that they make 604 00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:06,600 Speaker 2: with cheese and tomato and make it into a proper 605 00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:10,240 Speaker 2: snack the psychologically you're registered as such as opposed to 606 00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:12,679 Speaker 2: a bar that you barely even notice. So keep the 607 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:14,879 Speaker 2: bars in your bag for emergencies so it saves you 608 00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:16,840 Speaker 2: from the bacon and egg roll at the kid's footy 609 00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:18,920 Speaker 2: or from getting a chocolate bar on the way home 610 00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:21,960 Speaker 2: when you're starving, and when you can make a proper 611 00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:24,920 Speaker 2: balance snack, and it has to include fresh food. That's 612 00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:25,359 Speaker 2: the rule. 613 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:28,040 Speaker 1: Love it and that's really not much I can add there, Susie. 614 00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:30,960 Speaker 1: But lately my clients have been loving just a bit 615 00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:33,239 Speaker 1: of protein on some crackers in the afternoon. And I know, 616 00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:36,040 Speaker 1: like you said, Susie, some people like aptertune tea is 617 00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:38,439 Speaker 1: so powerful because it really does set you up so 618 00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:41,399 Speaker 1: well coming into dinner, but also helping to minimize that 619 00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:44,360 Speaker 1: over snacking after dinner. And I'd rather my clients eat 620 00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:47,040 Speaker 1: more calories and have a properly balanced afternoon tea or 621 00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:48,920 Speaker 1: I think for so many of us, when we're trying 622 00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:51,199 Speaker 1: to lose weight, we go too light, and then we 623 00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:53,320 Speaker 1: get too hungry by dinner. We end up snacking up 624 00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:55,840 Speaker 1: the kid's plate, we end up snacking while we're making dinner, 625 00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:57,959 Speaker 1: then we eat a full plate of dinner, and then 626 00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:00,720 Speaker 1: we have more snacks after dinner. What some of my 627 00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:03,400 Speaker 1: clients have been loving are protein on crackers, So whether 628 00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:05,080 Speaker 1: that be a bit of cottage cheese with a bit 629 00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:08,280 Speaker 1: of tomato and cucumber. We've done some boiled eggs and 630 00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:10,280 Speaker 1: I've got a great recipe on my Instagram, like. 631 00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:13,080 Speaker 2: A tuna mashna. Well next some men even with a 632 00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:14,000 Speaker 2: little bit of avocado. 633 00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:16,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, lovely, I've got a tuna if you're not a 634 00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:18,359 Speaker 1: huge fan of tuna, I've got a little recipe on 635 00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:21,600 Speaker 1: my Instagram. Or we've done curried egg in lettuce cups. 636 00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:23,520 Speaker 1: That's a really good one too, and adding a little 637 00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:25,879 Speaker 1: bit of flavor to egg even or to tune if 638 00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:27,679 Speaker 1: you don't love it's a bit of Greek yogat, a 639 00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:29,719 Speaker 1: squeeze of lemon, a little bit of you know, some 640 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:32,440 Speaker 1: dried deal. All of those things go go a really. 641 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:33,080 Speaker 2: Really long way. 642 00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:35,400 Speaker 1: And some of the really great seasoning bases out there 643 00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:37,760 Speaker 1: which are pretty good ingredient wise as well. Mingle is 644 00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:39,880 Speaker 1: one of my favorite brands. They do some great ones 645 00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:42,080 Speaker 1: using a little bit of seasoning to flavor some of 646 00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:44,920 Speaker 1: your protein like eggs or like tuna. It doesn't everything 647 00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:46,959 Speaker 1: doesn't have to be plain. You can actually make your 648 00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:49,320 Speaker 1: food taste good as well. And like Sushie said, some 649 00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:51,520 Speaker 1: fresh fruits, so that's a really great option to bring in. 650 00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:53,960 Speaker 1: So even a couple of boiled eggs and an apple 651 00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:55,480 Speaker 1: or a mandarine, you know, get a bit of that 652 00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:58,240 Speaker 1: vitamin CNE for winter as well. So tons and tons 653 00:28:58,280 --> 00:29:00,600 Speaker 1: of good options out there.
