Podcasts about food therapy

On today's podcast, Luis discusses his personal journey with trauma and nutrition, and how the two together have an impeccable ability to help people recover from stress and trauma.Luis shares his full personal story of childhood abuse, and how food was the only thing that could suppress and repress his pain. His personal experiences drew him towards a psychology degree, which he abandoned because of his dislike of the DSM and it's diagnostic rigidity. Simultaneously, he was working at a health food store, and began to see how much could be changed, both in himself and others, through dietary changes. When he began studying somatic psychology, Luis discovered the missing piece he had been searching for: how trauma is what prevents people from sticking to specific diets that could help people recover from certain health conditions.Certain foods and eating habits can allow us to tolerate the intolerable, and can become a dependence in order for us to relax, sleep, work, and more. In the Embodied Nutrition group, Luis teaches how foods can stimulate, depress, or balance the nervous system, and how to relate to the emotions and sensations arise when we practice "food sobriety."You can read more about, and register for, the Living Seasonally & Cyclically webinar here: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/events/living-seasonally-cyclically-how-i-recovered-from-burnout You can read more about, and register for, the 6-month Embodied Nutrition group here: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/slow-practice-nutrition-group----You can learn more on the website: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/ Learn more about the self-led course here: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/self-led-new Join the waitlist to pre-order Luis' book here: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/the-book You can follow Luis on Instagram @holistic.life.navigationQuestions?

Remember when toll booths were replaced by EzPass? Did you wonder how you would find your way to the closest restaurant or gas station without the interpersonal connection of the toll booth worker? Likewise are you skeptical about A.I.? Join Luis and Holly as they chat about how A.I. can support your creativity, allowing you to do more of what you love. With the help of A.I. Holly Howard does private consulting and business growth training, as she writes her first book. We may be great at the service we offer, but if we are a solo/small business and not good at, or bogged down by, admin work, how do we tend that part of the business? Luis used A.I. to research for his upcoming book, Food Therapy, freeing up hours he could have spent researching on his own. Holly shares how she bounces work ideas off of A.I. She also has A.I. write transcripts and job descriptions for her, building her capacity for the part of her business that she loves doing. All this reduces her mental workload. The key to using A.I. is clearly communicating your needs to the program. If you use A.I. with unsatisfactory results, consider how you communicate. Luis and Holly also discuss dopamine and the difference between algorithms and the social engagement hits of Instagram versus the control you have over A.I. If we go in to the conversation around A.I. grounded, we can help integrate A.I. safely and ethically. --Interested in joining Holly's workshop about A.I.?

Luis reads us a chapter of his upcoming book "Food Therapy" (2026). In it he discusses how eating is relational. Our body receives the being of a plant or animal and digests it, breaking it down into chemicals that relate to our bodies' chemicals. In this unconscious alchemy food becomes our bodies. We often use this shift to change our chemistry and avoid feeling. Luis worked with three wives, all who said if they gave up chocolate they would get divorced. They helped him realize that food can be broken down into three categories: depressants, stimulants, and balancers. Understanding these categories became Luis' compass, what he calls the Quiet Diet, used to navigate his own recovery from binge eating. When we embody how foods affect us we become a conscious alchemist, sober to how we actually feel. Food is a potent medicine that can shift our inner ecology and build our capacity to heal from stress and trauma.

Es gibt unterschiedliche Gründe dafür, warum wir essen. Hunger ist wohl häufigste Grund. Aber auch Stress, Trauer oder Langeweile können Gründe für das sogenannte "Emotionale Essen" sein. Essen kann auch Glückshormone im Körper ausschütten. Mitunter kann die Lust zB auf Süßigkeiten aber nur eine Bewältigungsstrategie des Körper sein. In dieser Folge erklärt Cornelia viel wissenswertes zum Thema "Emotionales Essen".Eure Fragen an Cornelia und Philipp schickt ihr jederzeit gerne an podcast@liferadio.tirolWebsite: https://corneliafiechtl.atInstagram: @cornelia_fiechtlBuch: Food Feelings & Integrative Ernährungspsychologie

Are you curious about how to apply food-as-medicine to your furry friends? Want to know more about the optimal diet for dogs? Looking for information on reducing toxicity when it comes to flea, tick, and heartworm prevention? Tune in to hear us interview Laurie Johnson DVM, Integrative Veterinarian and cover all this and more!    In this episode, we pick Dr. Laurie's brain about everything from assessing your pet's constitution to how to transition to a raw or real food diet. We discuss supplementation when it comes to your pet, how you can individualize your pet's preventative regimen, and how to best work with your veterinarian to get the best care for your pet!    Dr. Laurie's Bio: Dr. Laurie Johnson is an integrative veterinarian practicing in Austin, Texas (AcuDog HerbalCat Vet). She is certified in Acupuncture, Food Therapy, and Tui Na from the Chi Institute, and Integrative and Chinese Herbal Medicine through the College of Integrative Veterinary Therapies.   She has over 15 years of experience with a diverse background in wildlife, emergency, shelter, small animal medicine, dermatology, soft tissue surgery and dentistry.    Find her at: AcuDog HerbalCat - Veterinary Medicine in Austin, Texas   Also in this episode:  Keto Reset Program Starts 8/21 Dr Laurie's Story TCM and Assessing ConstitutionEpisode 383: Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine Optimal Diet for DogsSoCal Raw Fed Dogs Instinct Dog Food Smalls (cats) A Pup Above Chi Dog Farmer's Dog Petdiets.com Nom Nom Barking Creek Kitchen Just Food for Dogs Why Consider Delayed Spay and Neuter Gut Health for DogsRebuild Spectrum Probiotic GI Immune Builder Supplementation for PetsNordic Naturals Omega 3 Liquid Herbsmith Heartworm Prevention Flea PreventionWondercide   More Resources from Dr. Laurie: VDIlab.com:  lab that has a lot of special testing that most integrative vets have access to. I use them most for GI vitamins and allergy screening. Much more affordable than a standard lab.  DNA heartworm testing-  I've sent to Canada in past- very tricky with customs. Apparently Auburn offers this test. Any vet can set up an account with Auburn's lab to be able to run the test. Ideal when pet parents choose not to use a preventative. Detects living heartworm DNA - positive much sooner than standard testing. Heartworm - Auburn University College of Veterinary Medicine. Animalbiome.com is an excellent company. tons of high quality research on microbiome health in dogs and cats and specific research on gut health with raw fed animals. Pet parents can test their pet's biome. I tend to recommend this with all of my GI cases, chronic skin, immune health cases. Results vary a lot. Some pets have severe e-coli overloads and practically zero beneficial bacteria so they need fecal transplants and specific pre/probiotic and fiber sources. Inulin might be a better fiber source than psyllium in some cases. Some pets don't have pathogenic bacteria but they have no good flora so they will also need fecal transplants. Best to work with a vet when this is needed as most of my patients need more support when they are undergoing fecal transplant. I reach for S boullardi /FOS a lot. This is not found in standard small animal formulas. Their product line is amazing! Vax/Titers: puppy /kitten vaccine protocol with titer testing recommendations from Dr. Jean Dodd's foremost authority on endocrine disease and immunology in small animals. One of her projects is the rabies challenge fund. vaccine protocol | HemopetPuppies and kittens need their vaccine series per the protocol to protect them from deadly diseases. We think of these as core vaccinations. We start them earlier in Texas because of the much higher risk here. These vaccines are extremely effective. I usually run titers when the pet has already had one 3 year vaccine because they tend to be better protected and if they are protected, we can run the titers every 3 years when the vaccine would be due.  Rabies is a legal requirement to prevent human exposure to this deadly disease. We have  a lot of rabies in Texas! Every year, there is at least one pet dog and multiple kittens or adult cats who test positive for Rabies in Austin. They are tested because of human exposure and they are euthanized so their brain tissue can be tested :( All healthy pets should be vaccinated at least twice before titers are run.  Titers can still be run but many clinics won't accept the titers. I am rabies vaccinated because I used to work with wildlife. We tested our titers regularly and when they were low, we got a booster. This is standard practice in the human field and may someday be the standard with small animals.  Interceptor dose example: Sharing this with y'all so you can see the calculation for Interceptor (milbemycin oxime) **Please note- the chewable pill cannot be broken because the medication is not evenly distributed** Jax weighs 80 # We convert his weight to kg= 36.4kg 36.4 x 0.1mg/kg = 3.64 mg- this is the bare minimum dose to prevent heartworms. I don't like to have such a narrow margin in case the dog gains weight or there is resistance to the drug and because we can't break the tablet, so I tend to dose at 0.2mg/kg - 0.3 mg/kg (instead of 0.5mg/kg)  So, his more appropriate dose is 7.3 mg- we round up to 8mg.  The 50- 100# dose is 23mg.  The 26-50 # dose is 11.5mg. It's the next size down.  11.5mg divided by 36.4 = 0.3 mg/kg dose so we're good!Note: The lower dose does not protect against hookworms according to the study, so you would need to be aware of this. Any dog with a history of hookworms needs the higher dose until 100% clear on antigen testing.    This episode is sponsored by: Noble Origins, an animal-based organs focused company serving up Nose-To-Tail Protein With Organs, Collagen, & Colostrum.

In this episode, we explore the complex role guilt plays in our lives, particularly around topics like eating, self-care, and productivity. We start things off with some chit-chat about recording while standing up -- Stef has a moment of body image angst, revisted at the end of the episode. We discuss how guilt can stem from societal expectations and personal values, and whether it truly helps drive positive change or just makes us feel worse. We also talk about how guilt compares to integrity and self-care, arguing that aligning with one's values might be a healthier motivator than guilt. Several personal stories highlight these ideas: Sarah shares a dinner story involving guilt around food and a confrontation with her dad's judgmental comments. Stef talks about the difference between productive frustration and unproductive shame using an example of...underwear Both hosts reflect on their own experiences with guilt related to work and productivity, emphasizing the difference between productive self-care and collapsing out of despair or self-abandonment. The conversation also touches on parental expectations, societal pressures about how to look, eat, and "succeed", and the importance of self-compassion (explained in context, not the abstract boring way).

I am a big believer that food is medicine. Growing up in a Chinese household, my mother often told me (and still tells me) to eat certain foods based on Eastern philosophies of health. Once I went to college, I was more exposed to Western ways of thinking about healthy eating, which sometimes conflicted with what I was taught growing up. Through the years, I've experimented with vegetarian and vegan diets and now practice a pescetarian/Mediterranean way of eating - which I have found is the most accommodating for Western ideals of health while still being able to share meals with my Chinese family. In this episode, I chat with Zoey, a NY and Shanghai-based registered dietician, nutrition consultant, chef, and Chinese Medicine food therapist, who shares her own experience with American versus Chinese ways of eating and how she's seen it impact her physical and mental health. If you want to learn how to improve your nutrition for healthier living and crave a perspective that incorporates both Eastern and Western ways of thinking, listen in as we chat about fad diets, good food habits, and what she's learned from the older women in her life about maintaining good health and longevity.

Welcome to the Pursuing Private Practice Podcast! Join Jennifer & fellow CEO Yvette Quantz of Customized Nutrition Newsletters as they discuss how email marketing is a powerful tool that allows you to connect with your audience, nurture relationships, and drive conversions. Unlike social media, where your message can easily get lost in the noise, email allows you to go deeper and engage with your subscribers on a more personal level. Here are some reasons why email marketing is essential: Deeper Engagement: Email allows you to provide more in-depth content and build a stronger connection with your audience. Segmentation: With email, you can send targeted messages to different segments of your email list based on their interests and needs. Funnel Creation: You can create specific funnels to guide your subscribers through their customer journey and provide them with the right content at the right time. Ownership: Your email list is an asset that you own. Unlike social media followers, you have full control over your email list and can transfer it to different platforms if needed. Email marketing is a powerful tool that can transform your business. This episode will show you how to add value and connect with your audience through email!   Yvette Perrier Quantz, RDN, LDN, is a passionate dietitian and creative nutrition entrepreneur who's been blazing her path in the nutrition and wellness industry since 2003. Since 2008, she has owned and operated a private nutrition practice, Food Therapy, offering clients a holistic approach to nutrition as the foundation of radiant health and meaningful contribution.

On today's episode of The Health Detective Podcast, we are talking once again with a woman on a mission to help pets around the world, Dr. Ruth Roberts!   Dr. Roberts was a huge hit the last time she recorded with us! She gave us all the latest insights into keeping our furry friends healthy (you can listen to that episode by clicking here), as well as how we can actually pursue a legitimate career working with people's pets through her Pet Wellness Program.   Now that we have had multiple FDNs successfully go through Dr. Roberts' program with nothing but amazing things to say, we felt it was only right to have her back on to talk about he program itself. (WARNING: You'll also get Detective Ev asking a bunch of random pet related questions!)    Would you like to see more of Dr. Roberts in the future? Let us know by shooting us a direct message on Instagram: @fdntraining.   About Dr. Roberts:   During her 30-year career as a DVM, Dr. Ruth Roberts has become one of the nation's foremost experts in holistic and integrative veterinary medicine. After graduating from North Carolina State University in 1990, Dr. Roberts began her career practicing traditional, Western medicine. The onset of simultaneous health challenges for both her and her dog Arnold, however, prompted Dr. Roberts to seek solutions outside of the traditional realm of veterinary care she had learned in her textbooks. Dr. Roberts furthered her education by absorbing the principles of Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine at the Chi Institute in Florida. Her studies there would eventually form the foundation for her philosophy that “good health begins in the bowl.” She is certified in Acupuncture, Chinese Herbology and Food Therapy. In 2006, Dr. Roberts founded The Original Crockpot Diet and continues to see the dramatic results it makes in the health of her patients. She is a leading consultant in integrative veterinary medicine and advises clients in the United States and internationally through her website DrRuthRoberts.com. Dr. Ruth is on a mission to empower pet parents and foster a vibrant community, to ignite a global movement for natural pet health, led by Dr. Ruth and Holistic Pet Health Coaches. Our aim is to equip you with the tools and knowledge to champion your pet's wellbeing, making every tail wag and content purr a testament to our commitment.   Dr. Roberts' website: www.drruthroberts.com

Can you just take a quick second and look outside… maybe it's blue and beautiful, maybe it's stormy.. whatever the weather is… isn't it amazing that we can connect right here?    We can come together from opposing sides of the world and have a conversation. I am so glad about this because today we are talking about mental health. And the most important thing in mental health is for us all to know that we are not alone. We are all here together under the same sky.    Here in America, it is Mental Health Awareness Month and as a dietitian with roots in eating disorder treatment, I deeply value the need for this awareness.    If you are someone who struggles with anxiety and depression, I am really glad you are here. If you don't, I guarantee someone you love does. So either way, this episode is going to be full of information you need to know. And while we are only scratching the surface of mental health on the show today, I hope this is a conversation that you continue.    If you ever need additional support reach out to resources.

July is upon us, 30 days of JING has begun, and we have well and truly fallen into cooler temperatures that call for nourishment, replenishment, and slowing down. Today on the podcast, we're reminding you of all things warming, tonifying, and delicious to replenish you in these cooler months with wellness coach and Qi Food Therapist Kimberly Ashton. We love having Kimberly on for our seasonal Five Element food podcasts- she reminds us to eat local, eat for the season, and above all, eat intuitively. Within the Five Element philosophy of Traditional Chinese Medicine, there is an understanding that the more we rest in Winter, the more harvest we can expect in Late Summer. Understanding this critical element of Water/Winter time helps us surrender more willingly into hibernation and doing-less mode. Just as nature withdraws to compound its reserves for the warmer months, so should we.  In this episode, Kimberly takes us on a journey through the flavours, foods, and cooking styles of the Water Element, explaining the philosophy behind eating and preparing food specifically for this season.
