If you're an unmillennial you've been having periods more years than you probably care to remember. So what in the world could a podcast tell you that you DON'T know about your menstrual cycle? How about the fact that you actually burn more calories after ovulation OR that right after your period may be the best time to try for a new PR in your fitness routine?

 Postbiotics are beneficial "inactive" organisms. In this episode, we discuss both what postbiotics are and how they support overall immunity.    What are Postbiotics?   You've likely heard of  pre- and probiotics, but the term "Postbiotics" may be less familiar. As a promising new tool to support immune health, postbiotics are unique. They aren't actually "live active" organisms. Instead, postbiotics are beneficial "inactive" organisms. In this episode, we discuss both what postbiotics are and how they uniquely support overall immunity.      THIS UNMILLENNIAL LIFE PODCAST SHOW NOTES   LINKS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE   2024 Listener Survey      ImmuseHealth.com   Where to Find IMMUSE™ (LC-Plasma) Postbiotic (immusehealth.com)   Twitter (X): @Immusehealth   Instagram: @Immusehealth   Facebook: @Immusehealth   YouTube: Immuse Health YouTube   PREVIOUS PODCASTS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE   no. 118 - The Probiotics and Metabolism Episode    no. 46 - The Probiotics and Prebiotics Episode   no. 130 - The Gut-Skin Connection Episode   ODDS & ENDS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE   Kara and Nate on YouTube   DailyDrop   White Collar on Netflix   Google Lens   COMMERCIAL LINKS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE   YourColorGuru.com - Coupon Code REGAN for 10% off   EPISODE KEYWORDS   podcast, umillennial, Gen X, podcasts for women, women over 40, women over 50, nutrition, midlife wellness      NEVER MISS A NEW EPISODE!

  Blessing bags are care packages filled with essential items and small comforts that are distributed to individuals experiencing homelessness or facing difficult circumstances.   The contents of blessing bags can vary but often include items such as non-perishable food items, water bottles, hygiene products (like toothpaste, toothbrushes, soap, and hand sanitizer), socks, gloves, hats, tissues, sunscreen, lip balm, and other items that can help address immediate needs.   I was inspired to create my own Blessing Bags after learning about them from my friend Sally at Real Mom Nutrition. She's my guest on this episode of This Unmillennial Life.

  Did you know the order you eat foods could impact how effectively your body utilizes it?

Have you ever considered that the order in which you eat food could impact how effectively your body utilizes its nutrients? Welcome to the world of meal sequencing – an art and science that goes beyond just what you eat, to when you eat it or rather, in what order you eat it.   Is meal sequencing the same as food sequencing?   For the most part, yes. Meal sequencing is the strategic ordering of eating different food groups at different times within a meal to optimize digestion and establish more stable blood glucose levels.   What food order do people use if they're focusing on Meal Sequencing?   Experts recommend starting the meal with protein or fat (plus fiber, if possible) in the form of a small appetizer or salad rich in non-starchy carbohydrates (i.e. non-starchy vegetables.) Starting in this specific order as a part of the meal sequence has been shown to increase GLP-1 production. Next, the main course typically consists of eating protein first, followed by carbohydrates, with most experts recommending whole grains, based on their fiber content. Opting for dessert at the end of a meal, rather than on its own, also may help avoid a higher blood sugar spike and better overall glucose response.    What are the benefits of Meal Sequencing?   Eating in this particular order may     Improve digestion     Stabilize      Blood sugar levels     Provide sustained energy     Weight loss or fat loss    EPISODE TRANSCRIPT   (transcript generated through AI; may contain spelling errors)
