EP 161 – Parasites 101

I’m not going to jump into this episode without asking you to put down your fork, and perhaps listen to this when you’re not eating… that’s my kinda trigger warning to you. You’ll understand why in a moment.  Protozoa, helminths, and ectoparasites are the three classifications of parasites that can quite literally wreak havoc in your body and mind.

EP 160 – The Kitchen Sink of Questions

Do you ever go to the kitchen sink, and find a mish-mash of dishes, glasses, cutlery and even a soggy sponge in it? Well, I’ve taken inspiration from the name of the bag of greens that I get from the market weekly and calling this show and episode, and perhaps more in the future, The Kitchen Sink of Questions! I have to give credit to Ryan Bergman of Loco Fields, that we talked to in […]

EP 159 – The Good Side of Salt

Back in the 1970s, three strong dietary recommendations came out that are still part of our diet culture today that really need a reframe. Eggs – don’t eat too many, which has now been debunked repeatedly. Avoiding fat, which then brought on the high carbohydrate diet, could be tied to the rate of diabetes rising and a massive shift away from the essential macronutrient fat in our diet. Fat is GOOD, of course, in balance. […]

EP 158 – Eat This: Facial Diagnosis. What can your face tell you about your health? 

When you look at the mirror, what do you see if you pause for a moment? Put the judgment down for a second, and look at your face, your features like eyebrows, eyes, nose, mouth, skin texture, hairline, or lack thereof, where your ears are set on your head. As we age, we go through the stresses of life, which might include an injury or event that alters the trajectory of your life, and the […]

EP 156 – Eat This: Mighty Macros and More!

The podcast and radio show is called EAT THIS with Lianne. While I incorporate food into each episode, topics of late like sauna and cold plunge, meditation, listening to yourself, mental health, and other broader health topics that relate to food, I felt like we hadn’t had a focused discussion about the food that’s on your plate in a while. Sure, knowing how to stabilize your blood sugar with a glucose monitor that Chris and […]

EP 155 – Eat This: Meditation and Brain Health

What is your relationship, or do you have one, with meditation? Mine is definitely off/ on one. I started meditating when over 14 years ago. I began with Deepak Chopra’s 21-day meditation challenge and I stuck to it. Deepak would put out these 21-day challenges throughout the year and it truly did change my life. I was married at the time and it helped me realized the toxic relationship that I was in, and how […]

EP 154 – Eat This: How to avoid sugar and processed food, and why it’s time.

If you haven’t read or heard that sugar and processed foods aren’t good for you, I’m not sure where you’ve been hiding lately.  While there are the incessant ads for breakfast cereal (now said to be as healthy as having a chocolate bar for breakfast) to drive-thru temptations, smooth and creamy ice cream, the family breakfast and OJ, and hard-hitting campaigns from competing pizza brands, it’s hard to stay in the lane of avoiding these […]
