Episode 399

Welcome to Low Carb Conversations with Leah Williamson, Holly Jean Barrett and Amber Horn, Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioners.

This week on the Podcast, Leah and Amber chat with Marty Kendall from Optimising Nutrition. If you are a long time listener then you will recognize Marty’s name as he has been on the podcast a few times – even as a Co-Host!

Marty discusses his new project: Data-Driven Fasting. DDF revolves around the concept of using your Blood Glucose as a fuel gauge. You just wait until your Blood Glucose level is below your personalised trigger so you know you actually need to refuel. As you chase a lower pre-meal blood sugar trigger, the fat loss follows.

  • Join DDF to receive a 145-page manual and baselining sheet.
  • The next challenge starts November 21, 2020 or  January 2,  2021.  

Marty has a new book called Big Fat Keto Lies  which is a compilation of his learnings from his adventures in low carb and keto land.  Designed to help people who might have stalled on their journey, Marty busts some lies in the Keto world by explaining common misconceptions like why eating too fat much might not be a good thing.

In this episode we look at two lies:

  •  #7 Fasting for longer is better
  •  #9 Calories Don’t count

Is fasting for longer hours better for you? Do you think Calories don’t count? Tune in to hear this and more.

Episode 398

This week on the Low Carb Conversations Podcast Amber and Holly Jean chat with Kiran Krishnan, microbiologist and co-founder of Microbiome Labs. Kiran has a background in research and has been at the forefront of designing clinical trials for the supplement industry. His company, Microbiome Labs, is dedicated to continued research on the microbiome, as well as providing research based probiotics and other supplements to practitioners. He also has a lot of great videos on YouTube if you want to go on a deep dive!

In this episode we talk with Kiran about the importance of a balanced and healthy microbiome (gut bugs!) and how that relates to our immune system and ability to fight off all forms of pathogens from viruses and bacteria to other bugs. We also talk about the connection between gut health and gut microbiome and how that impacts the oral and skin microbiome. Science is just scratching the surface of the human microbiome and how probiotics and other support can help with overall health and wellness. This is a great episode to come back to as a reminder of how much our gut health impacts the rest of the body.

In this episode we talk with Zane about the adverse health impacts of industrialized seed and vegetable oils, or what Zane labels the “Hateful Eight”. We learn so much about heavy chemical processing and oxidation that happens to these oil and how it impacts health. We continue our conversation by talking about the increase in high fructose corn syrup and fructose in the Standard American Diet and how it is leading to unprecedented rates of metabolic disorders, diabetes, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, heart disease, abnormal cholesterol, and high blood pressure.
