Lisa R. Young, PhD, RDN, CDN, is an internationally recognized portion-control expert, professor of nutrition in the department of nutrition and food studies at New York University (NYU) and author of Finally Full, Finally Slim: 30 Days to Permanent Weight Loss One Portion at a Time.

To celebrate National Nutrition Month, Dr. Young joined Bottom Line president Sarah Hiner to discuss how portion control, mindful eating and certain easy lifestyle changes can help jump-start your weight-loss goals and ultimately lead to a happier and healthier life. Today, food portions can be FIVE TIMES the size of what they were in the 1950s, making weight management as difficult and as complicated as it’s ever been. People have lost their whole perspective on proper portion sizes. In a world of fad diets and weight-loss pills, Dr. Young’s approach is simple yet effective: “Live well and eat sensibly while enjoying the foods you love!”

Listen in as Sarah and Dr. Young discuss the following:

How to identify unhealthy eating habits and effectively implement new lifestyle changes

How to declutter and organize your kitchen to ensure positive eating behaviors

How to adapt your environment for improved portion-focused eating

Strategies for shopping at the grocery store and eating at restaurants

Young’s favorite seasonings to help add flavor and boost weight loss

The Bottom Line:  Steer clear of rigorous dieting, overthinking and deprivation. You can eat [virtually] anything, as long as you do it in the right amount. The results will follow.

In this episode of The Bottom Line Advocator Podcast, Bottom Line President Sarah Hiner is joined by Suzann (“Suzie”) Pileggi Pawelski, who specializes in the science of happiness and its effects on relationships and health to discuss why it’s so hard for people to accept compliments. Suzie, who has a Masters of Applied Positive Psychology degree from University of Pennsylvania, and is co-author of Happy Together: Using the Science of Positive Psychology to Build Love that Lasts, has found that people typically respond to positive feedback in one of three unhealthy ways—deflection (brushing it off)…reciprocation (repaying the compliment as quickly as possible)…and discounting (providing reasons why the compliment isn’t really deserved). By not accepting a compliment properly, people are missing out on a level of connection with others— as well as the emotional and physical health benefits that comes with being acknowledged. Listen in as Suzie and Sarah look at this curious aspect of human behavior, discuss how it impacts relationships and detail the ways in which we can receive gratitude and compliments in a positive and healthy way.

Listen in as Dr. Fuhrman joins Bottom Line President Sarah Hiner to discuss the unnatural and addictive relationship Americans have developed with food…and the steps we must take to reverse this disturbing trend.

According to celebrity trainer and mind-body coach Joel Harper, one of the most overlooked and unappreciated aspects of overall health is posture. Poor posture doesn’t just look bad. It can lead to a variety of health issues beyond backaches and headaches. It can cause problems with concentration, poor digestion and even an increased risk for cardiovascular disease. Beyond the physical dangers, poor posture affects you at a cellular level—it directly correlates with your mood and affects your mind, your words, and your energy. Listen in as Joel guides Bottom Line CEO Sarah Hiner through his “posture test,” discusses the role posture has on one’s approachability and shares his favorite posture-improvement tricks.

There’s a long-running fascination with protein. We’ve been told that it belongs in every meal…that it promotes fat loss…increases muscle mass and strength…helps bone density…the list goes on and on. Whether it’s meat, fish, poultry or protein shakes, the golden rule is to get your protein in no matter what. Here’s the problem—Americans are overdosing on protein and, according to Dr. Joel Fuhrman, too much of the wrong protein (animal protein) causes cancer and cardiovascular disease and can lead to an early death. The right protein (plant based), on the other hand, is packed with nutrients and can help you live longer. Listen in as Dr. Fuhrman and Bottom Line CEO Sarah Hiner discuss the proper, safe way to include protein in your diet.
