Athletes train hard, but training alone won't cut it—nutrition is the game-changer. Whether you're a weekend warrior or an elite competitor, the food you eat directly impacts your health, performance, and recovery.Think of it as the foundation of your success: without the right fuel, your body won't perform at its best, recover properly, or adapt to training.Firstly, however, one must know that it is important to have the right intentions and priorities. To understand this, we need to explore the various roles nutrition plays in an athlete's life.Think of this are the “turn”- key roles that sports nutrition plays for both young developing athletes as well as well-seasoned mature athletes.As a Sports Dietitian, I help athletes at all levels build tailored nutrition strategies to support their specific needs - so understanding the various roles that nutrition plays is my zone.In today's episode, let's break down the three key roles nutrition plays in an athlete's life—covering everything from staying healthy to performing your best and reaching your peak potential.DISCLAIMER: The information in this video is for guidance only and is not individualized advice for you!

Thriving through Menopause with Fitness, Fat Loss and a Focused Mind
Are you doing “all the right things” but the scale still won't budge in perimenopause or menopause? In this episode of The Honeycast, I'm breaking down 5 sneaky reasons you might be gaining weight or struggling to lose belly fat in midlife—despite your best efforts. From hormone imbalance to the wrong kind of workouts, from fad diets that backfire to chronic stress and silent inflammation—we're uncovering the hidden ways your fat loss strategy might be working against you. If you're a midlife woman following the Trim Healthy Mama plan and wondering why you're stuck, this episode will help you connect the dots between your hormones, metabolism, and the sustainable strategies that actually work after 40. Tired of doing all the “right things” and still gaining weight? This isn't about willpower—it's about midlife strategy. Inside Midlife Fat Loss Formula, you'll learn exactly how to eat, move, and support your hormones to see real change.
Do You Know What's Driving Your Hormone Symptoms? Take the first step to balance your hormones naturally with my FREE Hormone Symptom Profile Assessment: https://bit.ly/takemyhormonequiz You've swapped cereal for eggs, added collagen to your coffee, maybe even splurged on the “cleanest” plant-based protein tub you could find at Costco… and still, your skinny jeans won't button without a prayer and some deep squats. If that sounds familiar, you're not alone. In midlife, most women are eating far less protein than their bodies actually need. And thanks to a little-known phenomenon called the protein leverage effect, that gap can lead to blood sugar spikes, cravings, and overeating… even when you're trying to eat clean. In today's episode, I'm peeling back the curtain on the three biggest protein mistakes women make in midlife—and how to fix them to support hormone balance, stabilize metabolism, and finally move the needle on weight loss. In this episode, we'll unpack: ✅ Why is protein so important for hormone balance in midlife? ✅ How do hormones affect protein requirements in perimenopause? ✅ Can eating more protein prevent weight gain during perimenopause? ✅ Can high protein intake help stabilize blood sugar in perimenopause? ✅ How much protein do women over 40 actually need per day? ✅ What are complete vs incomplete proteins, and why does it matter? ✅ Does plant protein work as well as animal protein for perimenopausal women? ✅ Can protein help reduce cravings in midlife? ✅ Does eating more protein boost metabolism after 50? ✅ What's the best protein powder for women over 40? ✅ What is the best time to eat protein for hormone health in midlife? If you've been loading up on protein, but the scale still isn't budging—this episode is for you.

Continuing the Real Health Co.'s series on nutrition, Dr. Barrett tackles the common problem of why you may not be losing weight and how to properly diet, intermittent fast, and reverse diet. All of this and more on the Real Health Co. Podcast!
Hi friends! I have a new podcast episode live and I'm so thrilled to share a solo episode with you all about a super common and often frustrating topic: Why it's hard to lose weight, even when you feel like you're doing all the things! Here's what we discuss: Why "calories in versus calories out" isn't the whole story when it comes to weight loss. The crucial role of mindset and stress in weight loss resistance, and how to calm your nervous system. Why under-eating might be tanking your metabolism, and how reverse dieting can help rebuild it. The impact of hormonal imbalances (estrogen, progesterone, thyroid) on your weight loss journey. The often-overlooked connection between gut health (parasites, Candida, SIBO) and inflammation/weight loss resistance. How over-exercising (especially too much HIIT and cardio without enough strength training) can backfire. The importance of mineral balance and how things like stress, caffeine, and sweating can deplete essential nutrients. The hidden impact of toxin load from our environment on hormones and metabolism, and gentle ways to support detox pathways. Why doing more isn't always the answer, and the importance of self-kindness, patience, and playing the long game for sustainable results. and so.much.more! Partners: Check out We Feed Raw!

In today's solo episode, I'm getting real about something that doesn't get talked about enough — how body image struggles can quietly sabotage your weight loss journey. We're diving into the emotional side of fat loss — the self-talk, the mindset traps, and the ways we unknowingly hold ourselves back by thinking we need to hate our bodies into change. I'm sharing personal stories and client experiences to show you why mindset—not just macros and meal plans—is often the real roadblock to progress. You'll hear the honest truth about separating your self-worth from your weight, how to stop self-sabotaging patterns in their tracks, and what it actually takes to build a more positive, sustainable approach. By the end of this episode, you'll walk away with mindset shifts and practical steps you can use right away to stop getting in your own way, start seeing progress beyond the scale, and finally treat your body with the respect it deserves. 1:1 Coaching with Lauren and Our Team of Dietitians: HERE To connect with Lauren, click HERE Submit your question for advice from Lauren on the show HERE Take the free Weight Loss Personality Quiz HERE Shop Our Meal Plans HERE Get Support & Personally Work With Us HERE
