Anxiety Disorders, Digestive Issues and Vitamin K, with Beverly Meyer - #033

06/22/15 • 46 min

Welcome! My guest today is Beverly Meyer, who has been an alternative health patient since the 1970’s. She has tried many different modalities to treat anxiety, adrenal disorders, digestive issues, and numerous autoimmune disorders. Beverly has dedicated her life to studying and finding answers and now helps many clients find their way to a better diet and better health. She has fascinating information to share!

Much of what Beverly teaches her clients stems from the research and findings of Dr. Weston Price, a dentist who practiced in the early 20th century. He made predictions about how food trends would affect future generations, even down to bone structure! Beverly discusses the following:

All over the world, when people resorted to eating foods that weren’t native and natural, it has resulted in profound changes.
Humans weren’t meant to eat grains, which are the seeds of grasses meant for grazing animals.
From her experience, EVERYONE has some sort of gluten allergy, but some are much more severe than others.
Many bone structure changes over generations can be attributed to diets lacking in vitamins, especially vitamin D and K.
The link between vitamins D and K and calcium absorption can be clearly seen in human facial bone structure!
There are ways to ensure proper amounts of necessary vitamins and minerals. Listen to Beverly’s tips for further information!
It’s important to GET the proper nutrients, but also to live a lifestyle that utilizes them for maximum absorption.
Vegetables should be steamed/cooked for maximum nutrition, as opposed to eating them mainly raw.
Chronic illnesses disappear when drastic diet changes take place.

Celiac Disease, Saving Time and Money with Crockpot Recipes with Stephanie O'Dea - FAM #032

http://www.DrAnh.com/survey

Welcome to an exciting episode! My guest is Stephanie O’Dea, who is known as “The Crockpot Lady.” She has written numerous NY Times bestsellers about Crockpot cooking and being a “Mommy blogger.” Her newest cookbook will be released this fall; it has five-ingredient, gluten-free recipes.

In 2006, Stephanie’s 22-month-old daughter was diagnosed with celiac disease after constant bouts of sickness and vomiting. When she started eating gluten-free (GF), she was no longer sick. The entire family went GF at that point, and Stephanie began experimenting with GF cooking from scratch. Crockpot cooking became the norm. It was also at this point that she started blogging about her Crockpot recipes, which were also GF.

Stephanie relates the following tips from her experience:

How to handle school parties and times when her daughter is away from home.
How to eat out safely, and what foods to take with her.
How to use apps and searches to locate GF restaurants.
How to shop at the grocery store to utilize whole foods.
How to approach specialty GF foods and test for tolerance.

Because Stephanie relied on her Crockpot for much of her family’s meals, she naturally transitioned to blogging and writing recipes and cookbooks. She covers the following Crockpot topics:

Tips for cooking boneless, skinless, chicken breasts.
Tips for using the Crockpot for busy family schedules.
Tips for cooking vegetables.
Tips for utilizing a programmable Crockpot to your advantage.
Tips for cleaning a crusty Crockpot!
Tips for the easiest Crockpot meals ever!

There are more products and more information about living gluten-free than ever before! Since Stephanie began this journey several years ago, she has been a pioneer in researching and experimenting. Listen to learn more, and take advantage of her resources!

Lifestyle Nutrition, Healthy Habits and Body Building with DJ White - FAM #034

Welcome! My guest today is DJ White, who is the founder and CEO of P&P Journeys in Minnesota. DJ is a Pilates instructor, personal trainer, wellness coach, corrective exercise specialist, power lifter, and champion body builder. At age 40, DJ won the Regional Ms. Muscle Mania competition and has been featured by ESPN in a special about natural bodybuilding. Her goal is to strengthen clients from the inside out—mentally, physically, and spiritually. Her training involves lifestyle nutrition, establishing healthy habits, and physical training. DJ believes that as you become a stronger person, your results extend into all aspects of life. Join me to hear DJ’s fascinating story!

DJ originally began bodybuilding as a way to beat the stress in her life. She was a "computer geek” with poor nutrition habits. She hired a personal trainer to “get healthy,” and the trainer invited her to begin training for a bodybuilding show. DJ went on to become a champion bodybuilder in her 30’s, 40’s, and 50’s!

Listen as DJ shares her experiences and information about the following topics:

Does age affect metabolism? Yes! Our bodies change with age, and we need to listen to them carefully.
The training goal for bodybuilders is focused one---to get lean. The necessary nutrition is not healthy for the long-term because it’s so fat-restrictive, and our bodies need a certain amount of fat for proper function.
Mindset is extremely important! Not cheating and not compromising makes you a champion before you even compete!
DJ had a regimented meal/snack schedule while training for competition.
Most people never get to experience the level of commitment, focus, and empowerment that are necessary for bodybuilding success.
DJ has specific advice about “carb cycling” and “carb depletion” for bodybuilders.
Beginner bodybuilders should begin training 16-24 weeks out from competition, depending on their percentage of body fat.
DJ explains “refeeding,” which refer to the “splurge” meals during a very restrictive diet. For her, a splurge means extra cardio workouts.
DJ discusses eating before bedtime. She gives advice about whether or not you should eat, what should you eat, and why?

DJ also talks about supplements, and which ones you should take while in training. She shares the best way to lose fat and build muscle. DJ has tons of valuable information to share for aspiring bodybuilders, and for anyone who wants to get healthier. I hope you’ll join us to learn more!
