  • 84. The Science Behind Emotional Eating with Dr. Adrienne Youdim

    Leave Health Bite a Feedback.Click This Link.

    Welcome back, friends. We are well into the summer season.
     
    And whether you want to lose weight or not, I bet somewhere in your mind, when you think summer, you think wait, or if you don't think about weight, you think about your body or its state of affairs.

    It's in our culture and it is indoctrinated.

    So instead of pretending it doesn't exist, let's address it.

    This week I’m continuing to explore the science of hunger, focusing specifically on emotional eating, emotional hunger, and the truth that we are all emotional eaters, whether we like it or not. I dive into how the connection between food and our emotions is hardwired into our DNA and into our neurochemistry, and I explore what you can do to help overcome this.


    Highlights:

    • Learn how satiety hormones, which help you feel full, are related to our emotions.
    • Learn about the limbic system, which is responsible for processing emotions and pleasure, and how it is linked to eating.
    • Find out how dopamine causes us to seek out highly palatable foods more frequently.
    • Why comfort foods may not be as comforting as you think.
    • Discover possible solutions for emotional eating.

     

    If you haven’t listened to the first episode in this sabbatical series, where I discuss the anatomy of our hunger, listen to it here.


    Celebrating One Year! It is the one-year anniversary of Hungry for More, Stories and Science to Inspire Weight Loss from the Inside Out- a book that uses story and science to explore the spiritual and emotional hungers that are universal to us all!

    How do we know that it’s already time for us to visit a mental health professional and get help?

    People have been dealing with mental health disorders even before the pandemic, but the moment we got locked inside our homes was the same moment the numbers rose.

    Things got worse. More people got diagnosed.

    This pandemic brought us lots of difficulties in psychological terms, and yes, we’re still not over the fact that these changes have been affecting our life as a whole.

    So acknowledge the need for help and take better care of your mental health.

    Leave Health Bite a Feedback.Click This Link.

    A sound mind in a sound body. 

    Same as how poor mental health causes excess weight, obesity also entails physical and mental challenges, which all take a toll on one’s mental health. ‘Perfect’ images have been planted in our heads, with all the “must have’s” portrayed by the media and our norms.

    Having this said, have you ever thought about how you could combat the negative effects circulating around your weight and mental health?

    As we reach the end of this month, be empowered as Dr. Adrienne educates us, again, on how we can better take care of our health. Remember, change is just within reach. We are holding the key towards living the life we’ve always wanted to live.

    Dr. Adrienne Youdim is a board-certified Internist and is the host of the podcast Healthy Bite. She specializes in medical weight loss and nutrition, and she is aiming to transform the weight loss narrative into one that is both empowering and compassionate – inspiring people to live more physically and emotionally fulfilling lives through evidence-based strategies that actually show results.

    Through her podcast, Dr. Adrienne debunks all myths in the current weight loss culture and supports people in living the life they deserve as they work on becoming the best version of themselves.

    In this episode, Dr. Adrienne discusses the connection between excess weight and one’s mental health and wellbeing as she reminds us all that change should still start from within. 

    What you will learn from this episode:

    • Discover the reflecting relationship between excess weight and poor mental health; 
    • Find out how media, as well as our societal and cultural norms affect one’s negative perfection of his/her body; and
    • Understand that the discrimination also comes from within, so it is of importance that we check how we treat ourselves


    "What's good for the mind is good for the body, and what's good for the body is good for the mind."– Dr. Adrienne Youdim

    Leave Health Bite a Feedback.Click This Link.

     Have you been suffering from depression and/or other mental health issues, but even with treatment and medication, you just cannot find your way out of the gloom?

    We’re already in the month of May, and May is the month of Mental Health Awareness; the perfect time to talk about keeping our mental health and well-being in good shape.

    Having that said, did you know that the food that we consume impacts our gut health; therefore, what we eat also impacts our brain?

    Our food and our mood have an interesting connection you’d love to discover, and one serious connection is that the risk of depression actually increases with poor nutrition.

    So join us on this episode as we learn what foods we should keep and what needs to be eliminated from our tables in order to keep a positively running mental health.

    Dr. Adrienne Youdim is a board-certified Internist and is the host of the podcast Health Bite. She specializes in medical weight loss and nutrition, and she is aiming to transform the weight loss narrative into one that is both empowering and compassionate – inspiring people to live more physically and emotionally fulfilling lives through evidence-based strategies that actually show results.

    In this episode, Dr. Adrienne explains how our food impacts our brain health as she enumerates what foods should we keep on our table and what we should let go of.

    What you will learn from this episode:

    • Understand why sugar isn’t really good for our brain health, especially those which are called artificial sweeteners;
    • Discover what foods should you eat more and eat less/totally eliminate in order to keep your mental health in good shape; and
    • Find out the relationship between food and brain health, as well as why it’s important to take the time to cook for yourself

     

    “Just be intentional about feeding yourself. Make time for yourself, cook for yourself, and care for yourself. This act of self-care can be healing in it itself.” – Dr. Adrienne Youdim
