Bite Me Nutrition

In this episode, I'm talking all about dinner boxes—like HelloFresh, Dinnerly, those kinds of things. If you've ever wondered whether they're actually good for you or how to make them work better for your goals, this one's for you.I cover the basics—what I like, what I don't love so much—and a few simple tweaks you can make to level them up. Stuff like checking the nutrition info (don't worry, it's quick), going easy on the oil, and swapping out high-calorie sauces if you want to keep things a bit lighter.Nothing extreme, no calorie counting spreadsheets—just some easy, practical tips to help you feel good about what you're eating without overthinking it.Time Stamps:00:00 Introduction and Overview of Dinner Boxes01:24 Understanding Nutrition Information02:53 Enhancing Meals with Vegetables04:40 Managing Oil and Caloric Intake05:37 Swapping Condiments for Healthier OptionsClick me for show notes!

In this chat, I talk about smart devices—things like fitness trackers, Fitbits, Garmins, and my personal fave, the Apple Watch—and how they measure calorie burn and energy expenditure. Spoiler: they're not super accurate when it comes to calorie tracking.I break down why that is, and more importantly, how you can still use the data in a helpful way without getting too caught up in the exact numbers. It's all about understanding the limits of the tech while still making the most of what it can do for your health and fitness goals.Time Stamps:00:00 Introduction to Smart Devices and Fitness Trackers02:23 The Inaccuracy of Calorie Tracking05:11 Using Smart Devices EffectivelyClick me for show notes!

I get asked about this all the time—does creatine cause hair loss? So I thought I'd clear the air.There's one study people always point to where they saw an increase in DHT levels (a hormone linked to hair loss) in guys taking creatine. But here's the thing—just because something is statistically significant doesn't mean it actually makes a difference in the real world. That's a super important distinction.Also, a lot of the fear around this comes from seeing bodybuilders who take creatine and also happen to lose their hair. But they're often using a lot of other stuff too, which muddies the waters completely.Bottom line? There's no solid evidence that creatine causes hair loss. I wouldn't avoid it just because of that one shaky link.Time Stamps:00:00 Introduction to Creatine and Hair Loss02:50 Understanding DHT and Its Implications05:46 Statistical vs Clinical Significance in Research08:12 Debunking Myths: Creatine and Bodybuilders' Hair LossClick me for show notes!

In this episode, I'm diving into the world of pre-workout supplements—because let's be honest, it's a jungle out there. I break down what's actually in them (caffeine, creatine, beta-alanine), what those ingredients really do, and how much you actually need. I also chat through who might benefit from a pre-workout, and who probably doesn't need to spend the money. Spoiler alert: it's not essential for everyone. And like always, I remind you that no supplement can outdo solid nutrition. Pre-workouts can be helpful, sure—but they're not magic. So if you're gonna use them, use them smart.Time Stamps:00:00 Introduction to Pre-Workout Supplements01:21 Understanding Ingredients and Their Importance08:30 Choosing the Right Pre-Workout for You12:48 Final Thoughts on Pre-Workout SupplementsClick me for show notes!

In this episode, I chat about the difference between getting enough protein and getting the right amount for you. I break down why those standard government guidelines around protein might keep you out of deficiency, sure—but they're not necessarily helping you feel your best, especially if your goals include things like holding onto muscle, managing your appetite, or just having more energy day-to-day.I also touch on how your ideal protein intake depends on your body and your goals—it's definitely not a one-size-fits-all thing.And while I'm all for people getting enough protein, I also think we need to chill out a bit with the obsession over it. Not every snack needs to be packed with protein powder. So in short: more protein might help, but it's all about balance.Time Stamps:00:00 Understanding Protein Intake: Adequate vs. Optimal02:53 The Importance of Protein for Health and Performance06:13 Navigating Protein Recommendations and MisconceptionsClick me for show notes!

In this conversation, I dive into the whole fake meat thing—what's actually in them, how they stack up nutritionally, and why some of the hype (both good and bad) doesn't always hold up. A lot of people assume fake meats are automatically healthier than the real deal, but it's not that simple. I talk through the differences between products, what to look out for on the label, and some of the sneaky stuff no one really talks about.Time Stamps00:00 Introduction to Fake Meats02:57 Nutritional Value of Fake Meats05:48 Health Implications of Processed Foods08:16 Conclusion and Final ThoughtsClick me for show notes!

In this chat, I talk about how food waste can actually mess with your weight loss goals. You know those times you finish your kids' meals or eat the scraps left on the table? Yeah, that stuff adds up and can totally slow down your progress. I get it—it feels wasteful to throw food out. But here's the thing: eating extra calories your body doesn't need is just as wasteful, if not more.Time Stamps00:00 Understanding Food Wastage and Weight Loss06:12 Reframing Food Wastage Mindset09:00 Practical Tips to Reduce Food WastageClick me for show notes!

In this episode, I talk about a different way to approach weight loss—by breaking it up into manageable phases. I explain why having clear targets and deadlines can actually boost motivation and help you stay on track. And instead of pushing non-stop, I'm a big fan of taking breaks and practicing maintenance along the way. Time Stamps:00:00 Rethinking Weight Loss Goals02:53 The Importance of Defined Targets06:08 Breaking Up the Weight Loss JourneyClick me for show notes!

In this chat, I'm diving into the messy, often confusing world of hunger—especially when you're trying to lose weight. I talk about how hunger is totally normal during a diet and why it's so important to actually understand it, not just try to ignore or fight it. I share some down-to-earth strategies to manage hunger, from tweaking meal timing and what's on your plate, to looking at how things like poor sleep or your menstrual cycle can mess with your hunger levels.Time Stamps00:00 Understanding Hunger in Weight Loss02:54 Strategies to Manage Hunger05:46 The Importance of Meal Timing and Composition09:00 Navigating Hunger During Sleep Deprivation and Menstrual CyclesClick me for show notes!

In this chat, I break down some of the weight loss challenges that come with the menstrual cycle—stuff that often gets overlooked. I talk about how hormones can affect everything from hunger to energy levels and why it's so important to understand your own patterns. I also share practical tips on how to adjust your nutrition, exercise, and mindset to keep making progress, even when your body feels like it's working against you.Time Stamps00:00 Understanding the Weight Loss Journey04:21 Navigating the Menstrual Cycle10:03 Managing Symptoms and StrategiesClick me for show notes!

So in this chat, I'm talking about parasite cleanses and some of the big misconceptions around them. They sound tempting because they claim to fix all these vague symptoms, but the reality is that actual parasite infections are pretty rare in developed countries. I wouldn't recommend self-diagnosing—if you're worried, it's always best to see a doctor and get proper testing. We also get into the importance of overall diet quality and why anecdotal stories about cleanses can be super misleading.Time Stamps00:00 Introduction to Parasite Cleansers02:55 Understanding Symptoms and Misconceptions05:46 The Reality of Parasite Infestation and TestingClick me for show notes! 

In this chat, I talk about preservatives in food and why it's not worth stressing over every little ingredient. Instead of getting caught up in avoiding certain foods, I focus on the bigger picture—eating mostly whole, minimally processed foods without overcomplicating things. I also share my thoughts on those food-rating apps that make quick judgments based on preservatives (spoiler: they're not super helpful). The main takeaway? It's better to focus on overall eating habits and setting positive goals rather than just cutting things out.Time Stamps00:00 Understanding Preservatives: A Broad Overview02:49 The Importance of Whole Foods in Your Diet06:14 Critique of Apps and Tools for Food Choices09:06 Shifting Perspectives on Food and NutritionClick me for show notes!

In this episode, I set the record straight on oats and tackle some of the biggest misconceptions out there. People often question whether oats spike blood sugar, lack protein, or contain too much phytic acid—but I break down the science to show why oats are actually a great addition to a healthy diet. From improving cholesterol to helping with blood sugar control, they've got some solid benefits. Time Stamps00:00 Defending Oats: A Nutritional Perspective02:51 Debunking Myths: Blood Sugar and Protein Content05:47 Phytic Acid and Mineral Absorption09:04 The Science Behind Oats: Health Benefits and StudiesClick me for show notes!

In this episode, Jenna and I break down the connection between healthy eating and weight loss. We chat about what a healthy diet really means, why a calorie deficit is key for shedding pounds, and the tricky balance between eating well and managing calories. Jenna points out that just because something is “healthy” doesn't mean it'll help you lose weight if you're not keeping an eye on portions. We also touch on the calorie density of the Mediterranean diet and the trade-offs between fueling your body and hitting weight loss goals. Time Stamps00:00 Introduction to Healthy Eating and Weight Loss03:07 Defining Healthy Eating06:05 The Role of Caloric Deficit in Weight Loss09:02 Balancing Diet Quality and Caloric Intake12:05 Mediterranean Diet and Weight Loss Challenges14:51 Compromises Between Performance and Weight Loss Goals17:59 Finding the Sweet Spot in Nutrition GoalsClick me for show notes!
