#160 - How your digestion is linked to your metabolic health with Meg Langston

Weight Loss For Women: eat more, train less, get results

Meg is back on the podcast. We’ve had her on here twice already, and I just love Meg. She works with women to restore their metabolic health, hormones, and digestion.

I love that Meg looks at the system as a whole and doesn’t just treat the symptoms of her clients.

So, with that in mind, in this episode, Meg and I chat about:

➡️Why it isn’t great to eat nuts and seeds in large amounts

➡️How digestion is linked to thyroid and hormone health

➡️How what you do 80-90% of the time is what matters

➡️Vegetables, nutrients, and digestion

➡️Why bloating and constipation happen with restriction

➡️How stress impacts your digestion and health

➡️Candida and what to do about it (p.s you don't have to cut all sugar and carbs from your diet)

➡️What causes iron overload

➡️The benefits of organ meats, like liver

➡️The advantages of other “traditional” foods

➡️Scheduling intentional rest and saying “no”

➡️Quick tips for gut health

And more!
