It's a new year which means everyone is talking about eating healthier. As with all science, what we know about nutrition is evolving constantly. In this episode we provide an overview of macronutrients and energy production and expenditure in the body before diving into some specific tips around fats, carboyhydrates and protein as we enter a new year.

A few topics include seed oils vs. animal fat, the great fruit vs. grains debate, raw honey and how much protein (and what kind) should we be eating?

It's a new year and we're (finally) back! As we kick off 2025, we (Dr. Wiggy and Emily) sit down to reflect on the rollercoaster that was 2024 and how we go about intentionally planning our priorities around faith, family, marriage, work, and health in a new year. Rather than just setting a bunch of frivolous goals, the new year is a great time to consider opportunities for growth and truly focus on making sure we're spending our time and energy on the things that matter most.
