NMLP Season 2 Episode 6 : FIVE nutrition facts you need to know!
These are five nutrition facts you need to know!
When you gain weight reintroducing carbohydrates into your diet, the weight you're gaining is:
glycogen storage (glycogen is stored blood sugar that we store in our muscles and liver)
Water weight. When carbohydrates are broken down / metabolized a byproduct is water! Simply by eating carbohydrates our body makes water and this is also why people gain more weight overnight when they eat more carbs... the weight gain is not actual weight but simply water weight.
The order in which you eat your foods can impact your blood sugars.
Carbs leave the stomach fast, so if you're aware of how foods leave the stomach then we can slow down the release of carbohydrates into the intestines which in turn slow down the conversion of those carbs into blood sugar.
The order you want to eat your macros/ meal to help lower blood sugars is.
eat protein first
followed by your vegetables
lastly eat your carbs
Adding salad dressings are a great idea!!
The fat in salad dressings can help you aborb your fat soluble vitamins. Without fat present at a meal, you won't absorb your fat soluble vitamins (Vitamin A, D, E, K are your fat soluble vitamins)
Organic does not mean pesticide free
Taking a calcium supplement does not mean you're going to reduce your risk of osteopenia/osteoporosis, especially if your calcium intake is above the RDA (recommended daily allowance). This includes calcium from dairy products, soy products, fortified cereals, and supplements.
Women 19–50: 1,000 mg per day
Women 51 and older: 1,200 mg per day
Pregnant and lactating women: 1,000 mg per day
Men 19–70: 1,000 mg per day
Men 71 and older: 1,200 mg per day

NMLP Season 2 Episode 4 : Top 6 tools to help insulin resistance
Are your blood sugars high or increasing?
Have you been told you are pre-diabetic or insulin resistant?
On today's episode of the Nutrition's My Life Podcast, I'm helping you:
1. Understand what insulin resistance is
2. Why you should be mindful of your blood sugars
3. Provide you with 4 nutrition tools and 2 habit building tools that can positively impact your blood sugars (and even reverse prediabetes).
These 4 nutrition tools that help improve blood sugars are:
*Choosing complex carbohydrates
* Pairing all carbs with a protein and/or fat source
* Having enough protein at your meal times (I even go over how much protein someone should have per meal based on their height)
* Avoiding skipping meals / eating consistent throughout the day
The 2 habit building tools are:
* Moving throughout the day
* Build muscle mass
These tools personally helped me improved my hemogloban A1C from a 5.7% down to a 4.9% and I often see improvements with my patients as well.
