Hi Listeners!  


 


Snacking has become a way of life for most of us—but is it actually helping your health, or quietly holding you back? In today’s podcast, we’ll talk about why our bodies were never designed for constant grazing and how the snack industry convinced us we need to eat every few hours. You’ll learn how too many snacks can disrupt your hormones, slow your metabolism, and even feed the wrong bacteria in your gut. I’ll break down what’s really happening with your blood sugar when you reach for “naked carbs” like chips, grapes, or even watermelon, and why those quick bites may leave you hungrier instead of satisfied.


Of course, there are times when your body truly needs a snack—and when that happens, I’ll show you how to do it the smart way. You’ll get a list of my go-to, whole-food snack ideas that keep blood sugar steady, support gut health, and give you sustained energy—whether you’re at home, work, at a ball game, or running errands. If you’ve been struggling with low energy, stubborn weight, or constant cravings, this episode will give you the tools to fuel your body intentionally and break free from the snack trap once and for all.
