Episode 135: 6 Things I Wish Every Woman Knew About Carbs

For twenty years, carbs have been the most demonized macronutrient in the wellness world. We've been told to cut them, count them, restrict them, time them, avoid them after 6 p.m., only eat them post-workout, only eat the "right" ones, never eat them alone.

And what has it gotten us, mama?

Tanked thyroids. Disrupted cycles. Hair falling out. Anxiety crawling up the back of our skulls. Sleep that will not hold. Cold hands. Cold feet. And a generation of women who do not understand the most basic clinical truth about how their bodies actually run.

Today, we are taking the narrative back.

Inside this episode, I share with you:

  • Why thyroid function is deeply influenced by adequate carbohydrate intake.
  • The truth about why so many "healthy fat" women are quietly gaining weight
  • Why your protein goal cannot do its work without fiber. 
  • The thirty to forty grams of carbs before you train that will change how your body responds.
  • The post-meal practice that GLP-1s are imitating (and that your body does for FREE).
