While most of us find the low carb lifestyle to manage weight and keep insulin resistance at bay, there are many many other positives to eating low carb. Chronic pain management is one of them.   Join me as I chat to Dr Rowena Field who has just completed a PhD in low carb/ketogenic diets and chronic pain.   Dr. Rowena Field is a physiotherapist with 30 years' experience in both private practice and as a rehabilitation consultant. Rowena has a professional interest in chronic pain management and is keen to assist clients that historically have had limited options and may have been poorly managed.   Her PhD investigated the use of nutritional therapy for chronic pain, so she now incorporates her role as a nutritionist with her physiotherapy expertise.   Website: http://www.stepp.com.au FB: STEPP - solutions, tools and education for persistent pain | Facebook Twitter @rowena_field   Learn more at the HUB: https://lowcarblifestylehub.com/   Host Tracey McBeath: https://www.traceymcbeath.com.au/   If you are a health practitioner and are interested in learning how to bring low carb in to your practice, the Nutrition Network has a number of programs to help.

Simon is a nutrition researcher and founder of McKenzie's Meats that specialises in improving your health by delivering grass fed meat to your door specifically. "Seeing nutrition issues running rampant and now more than ever men, women and their kids are struggling with issues like low energy, chronic fatigue or if they do have energy they have to constantly snack or drink coffee to make it through the day… Then there are other issues like being overweight and struggling to keep it off, poor gut health leading to issues like IBS and Crohn's disease, Autoimmune issues, diabetes, poor sleep, chronic inflammation & mental health issues like anxiety and depression are now more common than ever before. The crazy thing is even though all these issues seem so different and diverse they all stem back to poor nutrition as the root cause of the issue, this has now been proven through research into: Nutrition and brain function Nutrition and body composition Nutrition and mental health Nutrition and hormone health Insulin sensitivity & diabetes. You see, by understanding the the importance of proper nutrition it allows us to have the ability to treat the cause of the problem rather than just looking for a bandaid solution that is slapped over the symptom… This is why I created McKenzie's Meats because I wanted to stop people from just treating symptoms and actually get to the root cause of their issues. I was sick of seeing bandaids get put over these issues thinking everything is going to be okay when I knew people were just going to end up back in the same position. I was sick of seeing people following mainstream nutritional advice or visiting doctors prescribing medications that were only ever giving them temporary results and more side effects that lead to other health issues further down the track. I was sick of people getting sold the "magic" pill or supplement when deep down I knew there was no such thing as what most doctors and pharmaceutical companies try to tell you. This is why I created McKenzie's Meats and developed our system for 'nutrient-dense eating' with specifically chosen products that heal your body and mind by getting to the root cause of the issues, because we know there isn't a magic pill or medication that cures everything. It takes more than just adding a supplement to your daily routine to improve your nutrition, that's why we have specifically chosen to stock products that are nutrient-dense and don't contain anything harmful so you can actually get the results you want whilst taking out the guesswork so you can focus on feeling better without being lost or confused about what to do, or feeling helpless ever again wondering why you can never get on top of your frustrating health problems. So if you're ready to improve your nutrition for good, get your first box of McKenzie's Meats today."

In 2010, Susan went to her GP regarding a chronic cough and came away diagnosed with extremely high cholesterol. She was strongly advised to take statins or in the words of a cardiologist – "she would be dead in 10-15 years". There is a long history of heart disease in her family, along with early cardiac death. Initially she didn't know what to do about it. Surely the cardiologist knew what they were talking about? She even picked up the first prescription for statins. But never opened them. While studying nutrition and exercise physiology Susan had come across conflicting information regarding cholesterol and heart disease and was aware of the controversy around statins, particularly the dangers for women using these drugs. Now she was in a position where her own health was at stake. She decided to do what she always does and hit the books. This ultimately lead down a pathway of studying nutritional biochemistry, with a special interest in understanding blood chemistry reports. During this time Susan also discovered she has the APOE 4/4 gene. This gene is found in about .20% of the population and increases the risk for both Alzheimer's and Heart Disease. Again, she hit the books to investigate the best way to manage this and whether nutritional recommendations for this vulnerable group should differ from other people without the gene. Susan says "It is pretty scary when you learn these things about your body. It takes some getting your head around. But the human body is a remarkable machine and as much as possible it will work to keep you alive and as healthy as possible. There is a lot we can do to help it in this process." Susan is fascinated with how the body responds to exercise and diet and has spent over 30 years studying these topics. With heart disease still the number one killer, she loves to help people understand this better. The reason that people with cholesterol levels (like her) die early from heart attacks, isn't because of the cholesterol. In fact, once over the age of 65, the people with the highest cholesterol actually live the longest. They have far less cancers, infections and autoimmune disease. There are an increasing number of doctors, cardiologists, lipidologist and other experts from all around the world who have reviewed decades of research and concluded that cholesterol-heart disease hypothesis that we all grew up believing is a myth. It is taking a long time to dispel this myth – but it is slowly happening because the public are educating their doctors. Susan is specialises in helping people with high cholesterol, heart disease or diabetes understand what is going on, so they can make better decisions for their health. It is important to be able to understand what your blood tests are actually telling you so you can have fully informed discussions with your doctor or specialist. Susan is passionate about her work and is able to break down the complex science in a way that is easy to understand.

Enjoy another one of my most popular podcast chats from The Health Evolution Podcast! "It is completely unethical for any medical doctor or any dietitian to tell a patient to eat less saturated fat."  There is a big message in this for you if you are a medical doctor, Dietitian or anyone advising people on what to eat. And this is not just a blanket statement. Prof Noakes goes through why this is the case.  I was super nervous before chatting to Prof Noakes. Afterall, how often do you get the chance to talk to and thank your hero? But instantly his kindness put me at ease, and we spent almost an hour together talking about this mans legacy. He shared where he is now after the horrendous 4 years of being bullied, tormented, then put on trial. You will be appalled at the way he was treated, and if it wasn't for his wife.. well you listen for yourself. Thankfully he was exonerated, and so was the low carb diet. If there is one of my podcasts that is a must listen, this is the one. Prof Noakes studied at the University of Cape Town (UCT), obtaining a MBChB degree and an MD and DSc (Med) in Exercise Science. He is now an Emeritus Professor at UCT, following his retirement from the Research Unit of Exercise Science and Sports Medicine. In 1995 he was a co-founder of the now prestigious Sports Science Institute of South Africa (SSISA). He has been rated an A1 scientist by the National Research Foundation of SA (NRF) for a third 5-year term. In 2008 he received the Order of Mapungubwe, Silver, from the President of South Africa for his "excellent contribution in the field of sports and the science of physical exercise". Prof Noakes has published more than 750 scientific books and articles. He has been cited more than 19 000 times in scientific literature and has an H-index of 71. He has won numerous awards over the years and made himself available on many editorial boards. He has authored many books. In 2003 he received the UCT Book Award for Lore of Running (4th Edition), considered to be the "bible" for runners. Since 2011 he has written his autobiography, Challenging Beliefs: Memoirs of a Career, published Waterlogged: The serious problem of overhydration in endurance sports (in 2012), published The Real Meal Revolution (in 2013), co-authored with Jonno Proudfoot, David Grier and Sally-Ann Creed, and following that the child-focused version of this book, Raising Superheroes (in 2015). The latter two are now also published overseas. In 2014 he co-wrote Always Believe in Magic, with Kevin Musikanth and Jonathan Kaplan, which is the story of the UCT Ikey Tigers journey to winning the 2014 Varsity Cup. The Banting Pocket Guide was published in 2017, co-authored with Bernadine Douglas and Bridgette Allan and most recently he has co-authored Lore of Nutrition with Marika Sboros. This details his journey from prosecution to innocence. Following the publication of the best-selling book, The Real Meal Revolution, he founded The Noakes Foundation, the focus of which is to raise funding to support high quality research of the eating plan described in the book. He now devotes a majority of his time to promoting the low carbohydrate high fat diet, especially for those with insulin resistance, and on raising funds for Eat Better South Africa! and research through The Noakes Foundation. He is also the Chief Medical Director of the Nutrition Network, an education, connection and learning platform founded by The Noakes Foundation in partnership with an esteemed team of doctors and scientists. He is highly acclaimed in his field and, at age 70, is still physically active, taking part in races up to 21kms. The Noakes Foundation The Noakes Foundation is a Public Benefit Organization founded for public benefit which aims to advance medical science's understanding of the benefits of a low-carbohydrate healthy high fat (LCHF) diet by providing evidence-based information on optimum nutrition. The Foundation's key goal is to change the way South Africa eats because the epidemics of obesity and type 2 diabetes are set to cripple national healthcare within the next 10 years. The Foundation purely relies on funding to carry out this mandate, visit our website to find out how you can help: www.thenoakesfoundation.org/donate Eat Better South Africa! The Noakes Foundation soon realised that the poorest communities around South Africa, whose diets mainly consist of maize and maize products, are unaware of the dangers of excessive sugar and carbohydrate consumption. This has resulted in an unprecedented increase in cases of obesity, type 2 diabetes, and hypertension. Thus the Noakes Foundation team established Eat Better South Africa! (EBSA) - the community outreach branch of The Foundation. EBSA's goal is to educate under resourced communities about good nutrition and to provide them with the knowledge and the tools to make healthy and affordable food choices. The Nutrition Network The Nutrition Network is an education, connection and learning platform founded by The Noakes Foundation in partnership with an esteemed team of doctors and scientists. The platform has been designed exclusively for medical practitioners across all disciplines, covering the latest and most up-to-date science and research in the field of Low Carb Nutrition.

RELEASING THE HOT FAVOURITES FROM THE HEALTH EVOLUTION PODCAST! TRANSCRIPT BELOW What a treat getting to chat to this man! In this podcast you will learn where things are going wrong with our health today, and what we can do about it. When we can understand the lever that is insulin - and thus insulin resistance - we gain back a lot of control over our own health. In terms of the lipid values we talked about: In the US, values are expressed as mg/dl: Ben was talking that the ratio of triglycerides to HDL should be less than 1.5. In Australia, values are expressed as mmol/L, the ratio of trigs to HDL should be less than 0.87. I encourage you to buy Ben's book: Why We Get Sick. It is an an excellent read, and while he is a Professor, he puts things in really easy to understand terms. A true gentleman and a lovely man in every way. Benjamin Bikman earned his Ph.D. in Bioenergetics and was a postdoctoral fellow with the Duke-National University of Singapore in metabolic disorders. Currently, his professional focus as a scientist and associate professor (Brigham Young University) is to better understand the role of elevated insulin in regulating obesity and diabetes, including the relevance of ketones in mitochondrial function. You can find Ben on all channels of social media, and here on his website: BIKMANLAB.BYU.EDU. ******** http://www.traceymcbeath.com.au tracey@traceymcbeath.com.au Instagram: @tracey_mcbeath_healthcoach Facebook: Tracey McBeath Health Coach To purchase the Summit Replay: http://bit.ly/longweekendreplay If you are a health practitioner and are interested in learning how to bring low carb in to your practice and reverse insulin resistance in your patients, the Nutrition Network has a number of programs to help.

Tracey (00:13): Hello everyone, and welcome to the health evolution podcast. This is episode 66 and you are so in for a treat today. What an amazing chat I had with the incredible Dr. Ben Bickman, who has so much knowledge. Not only that, he puts this knowledge into such easy to understand terms. So this whole podcast, is talking about why we get sick. It's the title of the new book he has recently produced, and I highly recommend that you buy this book. It is amazing, and there's so much information in here. So that's really what we're going to be talking about. And of course, looking at the fundamental cause of many modern diseases today, which is the fact that our insulin isn't working the way it should. And that's due to lifestyle, genetics, a whole range of conditions that we also talk about. So these are things like type two diabetes, some cancers, heart disease; a lot of stuff that in today's modern world, we attribute to other causes and we just treat the symptoms. Tracey (01:19): But when you look at the reasons and the causes of these diseases - insulin resistance being the number one, and you know that it's actually possible to reverse and turn that around with lifestyle changes, then this podcast holds so much hope. So enjoy it. And I'd like to say a huge thank you to my friend, Carmel, who was kind enough to reach out and offer to do the transcribing for these podcasts. So I will release the podcasts as I get them done. And then when Carmel has the time to do the transcript, she will do that. And I will add it in as soon as it's done. So thank you, Carmel. I love the community I'm involved in. Thank you to you for listening to the podcast. Please, you can do me a favor by rating, by making a nice comment and by sharing this podcast so we can help as many people as possible see the potential that is a health evolution . Tracey McBeath (02:37): Today on the health evolution collective I'm here with Dr. Ben, big Ben, what an honor to have you here on my show. Thank you so much. Ben (02:45): Oh, Tracey. It is my pleasure. Thanks for the thanks for the invitation. Tracey :50): Oh, absolutely. So I have been following you for quite some time now. I absolutely love the work you do, and the way you present it to people. It just is so easy to understand, and you give people so much; so much information to help them with their health. Before we get into your talking about your awesome book, 'Why We Get Sick', can you just share a little bit about, I guess, you know, you're a scientist and professor, but what's led you to writing this book, 'Why We Get Sick'. Ben (03:20): Yeah, again, thanks for the invitation and for the introduction. My focus as a scientist is in general terms, metabolic health, but it was a bit of an unexpected route. Although it didn't take me long to get on it, but my initial graduate work was focused on muscle cells. And I was curious about the process whereby a muscle cell, well, muscles would get bigger and better. But by the end of my masters degree, I was actually far more interested in fat cells. Around that time, a few years prior to me doing a masters degree, I had stumbled across this study that explored the endocrine features of fat cells. Basically it was this to me, a discovery that fat cells actually release hormones, release proteins, and that some of these proteins are pro-inflammatory proteins. And that at the time , was thought to be really the single variable in how someone could be obese, and that would start spilling into type two diabetes. Ben  (04:23): It was this obesity induced insulin resistance, which started as a research interest in muscle cells that quickly shifted to a research focus on fat cells. And now I'd say that it's really the tissue or the cells that I focus on most as a cell biologist, namely the fat cells. My focus now is, what are the variables that are stimulating growth of fate cells, the shrinking of fat cells, and fat cells behaving entirely differently; you know the metabolic rate difference. That means I focus a lot on the hormone, insulin, because you really can't understand a fat cell without looking at it, at least partially through the lens of insulin. Tracey (05:11): Now we are going to really understand what insulin is and the term insulin resistance. This is talked about a lot, but I think a lot of people don't really understand this. But before we do, can I ask you, people also talk about metabolic health and I've been guilty of that; you know, I had someone say to me the other day, what do you mean by metabolic health? What does that actually mean? Can you explain that a little bit? Ben  (05:33): Right. I suppose metabolic health probably has a different definition according to every kind of biomedical scientist or clinician. To me, I suppose the simplest definition of metabolic health would be that the person is insulin sensitive. But if that's still a little too vague, then I would say metabolic health would be someone having an OK grade, if you will, on the five variables that are conventionally used to indicate the metabolic syndrome. And so in other words, the metabolic health would be someone who has a normal waist circumference (so if they measured their fatness around their waist,) and then second, they have a normal blood glucose, and normal blood pressure. Then the last two are basically just normal lipid levels - normal triglycerides and HDL cholesterol. Those five variables constitute the constellation of what's called the metabolic syndrome. And so I suppose if we use that as a foundation, we could say in turn, well metabolic health then is being OK in all of those categories. But the truth of the matter is back to my original answer. All of those things are very much related to; insulin resistance when they go poorly, or if they're working well, then it's an insulin sensitive person. Tracey  (06:54): Makes a lot of sense. So obviously when we're talking about metabolic health, i.e. how our body can make energy, and how it functions, then when we can have those conditions (our body is not functioning optimally); we're tired, we don't have a lot of energy because our body is basically struggling to keep us well . Ben  (07:10): That's right. But something you said also prompted another thought, one other perhaps definition of metabolic health would be based on this idea of fuel or energy that you mentioned. So for example, well specifically that would be someone who has metabolic flexibility. At its simplest, it's just this idea that the human metabolism or our energy needs, can shift between the two primary metabolic fuels; that when we've eaten a meal, we go to a glucose burning or sugar burning, you know, blood sugar, that being the primary fuel that the body is using. And then several hours after eating, in other words, getting into this at least mild state of fasting, then we shift to predominantly obtaining most of our energy from fat. So we go to fat burning if you will. So this ability to shift from glucose burning to fat burning very readily when we eat and when we aren't eating, that is a good, also a good definition of metabolic health. But again, that idea is metabolic flexibility. But once again, even that can be seen through the lens of insulin in so far as insulin dictates what fuel we're using. Tracey (08:19): Okay. So let's learn about insulin. So I think firstly, what is its role? I know in the book you go into a lot of detail and I definitely encourage people listening to get the book and really understand it. But just in terms of a brief summary on this amazing hormone. Ben (08:38): Yes, it is amazing. And I think it really is unappreciated given how relevant it is in so much health and disease. Ben  (08:46): The most obvious effect or role of insulin is to control blood glu

Today you're meeting the wonderful Dani Conway. Dani is a Nutritionist with a passion for helping women with weight loss by understanding hormones. In our chat today, Dani and I talked about: PCOS; weight loss; adrenal fatigue; fasting; intuitive eating; gut health; nutrient density and absorption; macros; protein/fat ratio in men and women; macros and menstrual cycle; mixing things up during the month; menopause; plant versus animal protein; the dairy debate; food sensitivities and more. Meet Dani: "My personal journey into holistic health began personally 16 years ago with her own gut-wrenching experiences of yoyo dieting for years prior, as well as following the masses in the diet industry with "one size fits all" weight loss diet programs. I was 65 lbs. overweight on a fat free diet. I always failed which is one of the many reasons I was, and still am, committed to making strides in the Holistic Health and Equestrian industries. Not only that, the "diet culture" leaves a lot to be desired in the Equestrian industry as well. I am committed to bridging the gap, to remove limitations, so that any nutrition + fitness goal is possible! While I do not believe in a one size fits all approach, I have personally lived a "meat based," Keto/ Ketovore/ Carnivore Diet lifestyle for the last 15 years. It has been amazing for me and very beneficial for many of my clients. This is definitely not for everyone and we will figure out what's right for YOU! I have helped TONS of my women clients implement this Keto Diet and Carnivore Diet approach correctly. I have also coached tons of clients to find the right mix of Macros that was right for them outside of low carb eating. My superpower is truly beating the diet industry! I have studied under some of the top doctors and holistic experts, and I'm proudly certified, and qualified, as follows: Founder of Nutrition the Natural Way, 2007 Adv.
