Why should dietary health matter to teens? Keto Teen Meghan is our special interview guest on Episode 1622 of The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show where we’ll talk about it.

“I watched my mom lose over 120 pounds and regain her health and I wanted to follow in her footsteps.”

- Keto Teen Meghan

Who is Keto Teen Meghan? I’m a teenage girl from Richmond, Virginia and my parents started the keto diet in March 2016. I watched both of them lose weight and get healthy. The day before I started keto, I had a sleepover with my best friend where I easily consumed over 300 grams of carbs! WHAT WAS I THINKING?!?!

On July 20, 2019, I decided that I had enough of eating carb-filled processed foods and went keto not for weight loss but to improve my health. It wasn’t easy at first but I knew my health was more important than any carby food I thought I wanted. I didn’t want to go down the same path my parents did becoming fat and sick as adults. Since going keto, I have never felt better. I have so much more energy, my sleep has improved, migraine headaches went away, and I just feel so much better. I started my Keto Teen Meghan Instagram page in August 2019 to help encourage and educate others in their keto journey. Diet is important, but I also like talking about self love, body positivity, and confidence.

Greenville, SC based Clinical Health and Nutritional Psychologist Dr. Jay T. Wiles is our special interview guest on Episode 1621 of The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show.

“There is a lot of taboo around the concept of trauma and we define ourselves in light of that past trauma.”

– Dr. Jay Wiles

Dr. Jay T. Wiles is a Clinical Health and Nutritional Psychologist located in Greenville, SC.  Dr. Wiles has procured experience in the field of health psychology and nutritional psychology via applied research within both a university and VA medical center setting, as well as through teaching, consulting, and providing patient care. With a passion for integrative and holistic care, Dr. Wiles’ goal is to provide education to healthcare professionals on the bidirectional relationship between what we eat and our psychological and cognitive performance. His desire is to increase this knowledge and awareness that it may result in informed and collaborative shared-decision making, as well as improved quality of patient care that further bolsters health promotion and disease prevention.

Listen in today as Jimmy talks with Jay about his discoveries over his six-month sabbatical, the role of childhood trauma in our health and wellness, the role trauma plays in how our body responds to stresses, processing past trauma and moving forward, and much more.

The day we’ve all been waiting for since Jimmy Moore went away on a self-imposed six-month sabbatical on September 1, 2019. “The Man Of Real” is back today with a brand new focus, and boy does he have a story to tell.

“I know a lot of people show their real lives on social media, but there’s a lot of fakery. That stuff is toxic. Let’s be REAL.”

– Jimmy Moore

When you start bringing up sensitive things like childhood trauma it could really go south very quickly if you address it too flippantly and without a purpose in mind. But for those of you who watched it already, Jimmy’s primary goal is to be open, honest, and vulnerable in ways you’ve probably never seen anybody be before online—and to leave you with things to think about so you can better yourself. ⁣⁣

There is a very fine line between being real in ways that open people’s eyes to their own life and being a discouragement to those who are still working through issues from their past. I can assure you that I am working hard on finding that proper balance between the realness of all this and the helpfulness of everything that I’ll be sharing. You deserve that and I will always be sensitive to that.

Listen in today to hear Jimmy tell the story of how his life turned upside down just two weeks into his sabbatical, the discovery he made that has led him down a path he never expected, and why he believes that the topic of childhood trauma is more important to our health and well being than just about anything else.

“These physicians don’t want you to know that fats are healthy for you.”

– Jimmy Moore

The rise in popularity of low-carb, high-fat, ketogenic diets in recent years has become a worldwide phenomenon. From the United States to Canada to South Africa and Australia, the keto message is out there in full force. And this has obviously upset the old dietary guard who are none-too-pleased by what they look at as LCHF zealots. The perfect example of this–Australian keto nutritionist Christine Cronau is now being targeted by a group called Friends of Science in Medicine who is calling for her to be not invited to speak. Read the story below.

Calls to ban controversial nutritionist from University of Melbourne: https://www.smh.com.au/national/victoria/calls-to-ban-controversial-nutritionist-from-university-of-melbourne-20190319-p515fa.html

Health podcaster and international bestselling author of KETO CLARITY Jimmy Moore, who has shared the stage with Christine previously, says that this kind of attempt at censorship of a representative of a legitimate alternative hypothesis on nutritional health is anti-academic. Listen to find out why these tactics won’t work at preventing the keto message from getting out there and how, ironically, it might actually drive more people to it in this episode.

“I’m lucky that I never had a complete breakdown of health, but my health was in the toilet. It took me so long to unhook from the standard American diet and get my health back.”

- Melissa Grabau

Have you ever stopped to wonder why some people are able to fully latch on to a lifestyle change to produce amazing results in their weight and health while others seems to lack that internal fire and motivation to make it happen for themselves? What is the difference between those who succeed and those who remain mired in the mediocrity of their current habits? This is something that is not really talked about a lot in the Paleo, primal, and low-carb communities and yet Roseville, California-based clinical psychologist Melissa Grabau, PhD identifies this as the “vital missing ingredient” in the ability of the health community to bring about real paradigm-shifting change on a massive scale. As a certified yoga teacher who integrates specific mind-body techniques from her training as a psychotherapist, Melissa has found those principles can help people make the changes they sincerely desire to make which she has outlined in her new book The Yoga of Food: Wellness from the Inside Out.

Listen in to hear Jimmy and Melissa dig deeper into why certain people change but most people don’t, her own healing that took place using a Paleo diet, the deep attachment she felt to foods and why she was reluctant to shift her eating to a better way, why the Paleo community needs to do more than pay lip service to meditation and lifestyle, why any lasting change needs to happen in the mind before it happens in the body, the courage it takes to question your conditioning towards eating a certain way, why we all need a crisis in our lives to wake us up to change, the negative role anxiety plays on our lifestyle and eating habits, why people have a hard time giving up their so-called “comfort foods,” how Paleo and yoga can work in unison, why so many people who are into yoga eat a vegan diet, the intimidation factor of the online health community to people in the modern food culture, how to make the message of change more palatable to the general public, and a whole lot more. This conversation gets pretty deep at moments, but it’s something we definitely need to be talking a whole lot more about as the health message we are promoting becomes more and more mainstream.

Jimmy is back with ALL NEW EPISODES NEXT WEEK! While Jimmy is gone on a much needed and deserved sabbatical for six months to rest and recuperate, we will be bringing you the best of the best from the vast archive of shows that Jimmy has accumulated over the last 15 years.

“Your body is very smart and efficient in switching over from burning carbs to burning fat. Don’t believe this stuff about robbing yourself of carbohydrate.”

- Jimmy Moore

The negativity about a healthy low-carb, high-fat, ketogenic diet knows no bounds, including making up stuff about this way of eating that doesn’t even exist. The following article is a prime example of this.

5 Side-Effects Of Extreme Low Carb Diets You Should Know About: https://food.ndtv.com/weight-loss/weight-loss-5-side-effects-of-extreme-low-carb-diets-you-should-know-about-2003550

This is the kind of nonsense column that drives health podcaster and international bestselling author of KETO CLARITY Jimmy Moore absolutely batty. Listen to find out why fatigued, constipation, hunger, moodiness, and the risk of developing Type 2 diabetes are NOT typical side effects of a keto way of eating, but rather a high-carb diet in this episode.

“Some of the benefits she’s seen is probably from making ketones on the fasts she’s done.”

- Jimmy Moore   There are a lot of people talking about diet and healthy living online and a few of them have amassed a large following on social media channels as well as here on YouTube. One such example of this promoting the raw vegan, plant-based way of eating is Yovanna Mendoza Ayres, aka Rawvana as her Internet branding. She was captured on video by another YouTuber recently eating fish which forced her to admit she had developed some health issues with a lack of a period for two years, possible Hashimoto's autoimmune disease (low thyroid), and small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO). Read the full story below.   Vegan YouTuber Apologizes After She's Caught Eating Fish: 'I Made a Mistake': https://people.com/food/vegan-youtuber-rawvana-apologizes-caught-eating-fish/   After being urged by her doctor to add back in some animal-based foods in the form of eggs and fish to help restore her health again, Rawvana was predictably blasted by her followers as a fraud and a liar. This is so incredibly sad to health podcaster and international bestselling author of KETO CLARITY Jimmy Moore who says Rawvana should be lauded for being willing to make the difficult but prudent decision to go against her vegan belief system and to do what's right for her own personal health. Listen in to hear Jimmy urge love, respect, and compassion for Rawvana (even inviting her to be a guest on his LLVLC Show podcast to talk about this experience--email him [email protected]) as she makes this decision for the sake of her own health in this episode.     “What good is it for your message if you're dead? You can have all the diet perfection in the world but if you are not getting benefit from it, what good is it?”   - Jimmy Moore   Today we have a special JIMMY RANTS on The LLVLC Show for you.

“You can’t follow the original Atkins advice for very long and stay healthy. We know so much more now about the quality of fats and so much more.”

– Dr. Joseph Mercola

Dr. Joseph Mercola from Mercola.com is a physician and New York Times best-selling author. He was voted the 2009 Ultimate Wellness Game Changer by the Huffington Post and has been featured in several national media outlets including Time magazine, LA Times, CNN, Fox News, ABC News, the Today Show and The Dr. Oz Show. His mission is to transform the traditional medical paradigm in the United States into one in which the root cause of disease is treated, rather than the symptoms. In addition, he aims to expose corporate and government fraud and mass media hype that often sends people down an unhealthy path.

Listen in today as Jimmy talks with Dr. Mercola about his new book Fat for Fuel: A Revolutionary Diet to Combat Cancer, Boost Brain Power, and Increase Your Energy, how the internet has allowed people to take control of their health, why fat is your body’s preferred fuel, how doctors get disease treatment wrong, why a typical Atkins Low-Carb approach with too much protein is not enough for most people, his ideas about cycling in and out of ketosis, why cancer is a disease of metabolism, not damaged DNA, what you can do to protect yourself, and much more.

“Nowhere in this do I see that a low-carb, high-fat diet is detrimental to your health.”

– Jimmy Moore

There’s a sophisticated underground movement currently afoot seeking to discredit the low-carb, high-fat, ketogenic diet and promote a plant-based way of eating by some very powerful nutritional health forces with a variety of special interests involved. When it’s the American Heart Association (AHA) and the American College of Cardiology (ACC), this is a big freakin’ deal. Health podcaster and international bestselling author of KETO CLARITY Jimmy Moore shares about the new 2019 “Lifestyle Guidelines” from the AHA/ACC that tend to be a precursor to the new Dietary Guidelines for Americans set to be revealed in 2020. Listen to find out how they are equating a red meat, saturated fat, keto nutritional approach with a high sugar, high-carbohydrate, refined grain-based diet in this episode.

“Full digestion could take up to 6-8 hours and if you’re eating too close to bed time you can’t have restful sleep.”

– Jimmy Moore

With all the focus on what and how much you eat as it relates to obesity, new research out of The University of Colorado turns all of that on its head by claiming when you eat matters so much more because of its impact on your sleep and the increase in body fat and BMI that happens as a result. Read about that study in this article.

Eating later in the day may be associated with obesity: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/03/190323145204.htm

This is not surprising to health podcaster and international bestselling author of KETO CLARITY Jimmy Moore who regularly uses tracking devices to follow his progress with sleep and has seen this first-hand when he eats after 6PM as compared with having his last meal of the day in the afternoon. Listen to learn more about this fascinating new science that even people eating a low-carb, high-fat, ketogenic diet should be aware of for its impact on their health and weight goals in this episode.
