The task of educating our children about real food has never been more important than it is now, but it can feel like swimming upstream in a culture saturated with highly processed and denatured foods. Thankfully, we have access to more information and resources than ever before to educate ourselves and our children on this foundational topic. My conversation with Liz of Homegrown Education dove into the nutritional philosophies of our homes as well as practical ways to incorporate more real food into our children's diets. Whether you have prioritized real food from your child's first meal or you are just now beginning to make food swaps in your home, this episode will encourage you to keep making strides in this worthwhile journey. In this episode, we cover: Why it is important to teach our kids about real food and nutrition How your home and cultural environment impacts your relationship with food What “real food” actually means Practical strategies for picky kids Helping our kids get enough protein in their diets What if a child doesn't like the meal you've made? A balanced approach to food outside of your home Achieving healing through food Making real food a reality in your home when you are on a tight budget Shifting our mindset around the nutritional vs. monetary value of food View full show notes and transcript on the blog + watch this episode on YouTube.

Episode 195 transcription Cassy Joy: Today’s show is brought to you by the Nutritional Therapy Association! The NTA trains and certifies nutritional therapy practitioners and consultants with a nutritional foundation that emphasizes the body’s innate intelligence and bioindividuality. Because they know that a one-size fits all approach to nutrition does not exist. The NTA curriculum focuses on the importance of properly prepared, nutrient-dense whole foods, paired with a well balanced lifestyle. Sound familiar? I love this program so much. Throughout their program, students learn a wide range of educational tools and techniques to identify and correct nutritional imbalances and deficiencies. And students graduate with the education and skills needed to launch a successful career in holistic nutrition. May enrollment for the NTA’s nutritional therapy practitioner program, or their fully online nutritional therapy consultant program, is currently open through April 26. You can head to www.NutritionalTherapy.com to get more info. The NTA’s annual conference, Roots, is also happening March 1st through the 3rd in Portland, Oregon. I’ve attended in the past, and can honestly say it was one of the most educational and inspirational nutrition conferences I have ever been to. No joke. You can go to the NutritionalTherapyConference.com to register. You do not have to be an NTP to go; all are welcome. Cassy Joy: Welcome back to another episode of the Fed and Fit podcast. I am your host, Cassy Joy Garcia. And today I’m joined by a dear friend; one of my favorite humans on this green earth. Liz Wolfe is here. And the crowd goes wild! {laughing} Liz Wolfe: {laughing} Cassy Joy: That’s what I imagine in my head. Liz Wolfe: Me too, me too. Cassy Joy: We need some canned applause.

Her work includes the Wallstreet Journal bestseller, Eat the Yolks, and the Purely Primal Skincare Guide. And she co-created the online pregnancy and parenthood community, Baby Making and Beyond.

She's also a real-food cook and amateur homesteader raising goats, chickens, and pigs. In this episode, Abel and Liz discuss: Happiness (not appearance) and enjoying food as part of health; The danger of obsessing over "vanity pounds" and weightloss; Transitioning from a modern, urban life to a farm as a bad cook; Ancient bread and the pitfalls of conventional farming; Thoughtful omnivorism and a rant against the "Paleo Police"; And more about former diet dilemmas to cooking real food. Enjoy the show! [powerpress channel="podcast"] Show Notes Six years trained with Michael Rutherford, Bootcamp Fitness, Kansas City. Coach Rut introduced Liz to Robb Wolfe who was breaking out on his own. Started her own blog talking about Paleo and sharing what she was eating. Her appearance used to be at the expense of health, but later flip-flopped. Misery and restriction diets she was on made her terribly unhappy. Maintained a "thinspiration board" with skinny pictures for motivation. Had skin issues and disorders (like acne, eczema, etc) tied to her food. After five years of eating well, she's never been happier and healthier. Don't picture yourself thin, picture yourself in full health instead. Our body's expression of full health may not be what we want to see. Once you learn to love real food and health, you'll also love your body. You can't put a number on feeling good (e.g., scale, tape, calipers, etc). When you try to lose "vanity pounds," you lose the point of this journey. Strive to be functional and happy your whole life instead of preoccupied. Was on The Zone, Low-Card, Ketogenic, etc and something was still missing. Grass-fed beef was her first introduction to this new healthy lifestyle. In city, farmer markets were plenty; once rural, food is paradoxically bad. This led to developing her farm, growing her own food, and homesteading. Conventional farming and conglomerates are changing the food landscape. She says she's more about real food, without processed stuff, than Paleo. "Paleo" is just a label for a diet, but it's not about the lifestyle. Paleo is about a vast body of information, science, and common-sense. Ancient bread is made with rhizome, which is not a grain at all. Modern wheat is not like ancient, wild wheat (like Einkorn) or grains. Paleo is not a historical reenactment, there's still science on our side. Today's food are fundamentally different than our grandparents' food. Wheat sourced in America vs. sourced traditionally (like in Italy). Fermenting, properly preparing foods such as sprouting, and organic. You don't have to be a good cook to start making and enjoying real food. Breakfast used to be FiberOne, soy milk, with Aspartame sprinkled on top. So there is a learning curve but it gets easier and you find favorites. One way is to find great restaurants that support local producers. Liz coined the term "thoughtful omnivorism," which Abel likes. It's thinking about where your food comes from, giving back to the soil. Excusing ourselves from the food chain is making us sicker, less happy. "Where does my food come from," and then "where can I get better food." "Embrace the suck," and be outside rather than on the treadmill. Quit talking about weightloss at all costs, or whether caveman ate bread. Focus instead on real food, where it comes from, and how it makes us feel. We should stop "Paleo-policing" each other about dumb, little points. Went to high school with Lewis Howes, a past guest on the show.

Liz Wolfe of Realfoodliz.com talks to Leigh and Wendy about her new book, Eat the Yolks, a hilarious take on eating real food that bashes many health myths pervading our food culture. She is also cohosts one of the top ten health podcasts on iTunes and one of my favorites, the Balanced Bites Podcast. Transcript Click here to view the full transcript for #48 Why you need to eat the yolks with Liz Wolfe. About Liz Wolfe Liz Wolfe, of Realfoodliz.com, is a Real Food lover, an amateur homesteader, a natural skincare enthusiast, and a published author. Most importantly, she's got goats. Liz is a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (NTP) certified by the Nutritional Therapy Association. She co-hosts the top-rated Balanced Bites podcast. She has a regular column in Paleo Magazine. She wrote the Skintervention Guide, based around her experiences healing longstanding skin issues. She's a city gal who went from CrossFit n’ Paleo to Farm Fit n’ homesteading. After spending 4 years in New Jersey, Liz, the Husband and the Pooch moved “back home” to a 15-acre homestead in the midwest. They’ve got goats, chickens, guinea fowl, stray puppies, and lots of crazy wildlife, and soon, 2 hogs. She and her husband are trying to be more sustainable and less stressed, and we’re working on producing as much of their own Real Food as possible. Her New Book! Worry about cholesterol. Avoid red meat. Eat whole grains. Could it all be a lie? We live in an era of health hype and nutrition propaganda, and we’re suffering for it. Decades of avoiding egg yolks, choosing margarine over butter, and replacing the real foods of our ancestors with low-fat, processed, packaged substitutes have left us with an obesity epidemic, ever-rising rates of chronic disease, and, above all, total confusion about what to eat and why.This is a tragedy of misinformation, food industry shenanigans, and cheap calories disguised as health food.
