The Food For Fitness Podcast | Nutrition | Training | Lifestyle | Healthy Living

This week you are in for a treat. We’ve got Chris Powell on the show. Chris is a transformation coach and he was the host of a program that we called “Obese: A Year to Save My Life” but in the U.S. it was called “Extreme Weight Loss”. We've had to split the episode into two parts. In this part, we'll be looking at how Chris ended up becoming one of the most popular transformation coaches in the U.S. We chatted about his experiences of working with people and helping them lose crazy amounts of weight like 200 pounds in a year. Chris had some serious challenges and boundaries to break. He helped people who were so obese they were struggling to walk, had years of terrible diet choices and hadn’t exercised in years. This really is an amazing episode, here’s part one....

A huge part of our discussion is about the different kinds of bariatric surgery. Nichola explains the difference between gastric bands, bypasses and sleeves along with the pros and cons of each. Later on the show, we talk about the habits that people who undergo surgery should put in place. These habits are not only relevant for people who have had surgery, but applicable to everyone who wants to lose weight.

Yvette ‘SciBabe’ d'Entremont is a science blogger, speaker and former analytical chemist with a background in both forensics and toxicology. When she isn’t speaking at conferences, writing for magazines or battling health gurus, she runs her website full time where she busts pseudoscience with a great mix of humour, real life stories and science.

In this episode we’ll chat about why some people often become emotionally attached and harbour illogical and unsubstantiated fears over seemingly insignificant issues. Why do some nutrition and health issues stimulate such emotional responses? If someone eats gluten and drinks diet coke, is it that big a deal? What’s with the dietary tribalism.

We’ll look the suggestion that pharmaceutical companies are keeping cures from the general public, Yvette explains why all studies aren’t sponsored by multinational corporations, exactly what are ‘toxins’ and why they’re everywhere and her thoughts on ‘biohacking’ – is it legit or pseudoscientific BS?

Yvette also talks about her experiments with homeopathy and she’ll shed some light on many other exaggerated, unscientific crazes that people love to get sucked into.
