Listen to episode 27:
"I tried to be healthy in ways that were unhealthy": Meghan
July 18, 2021
Meghan had always been interested in health, but she didn't know that all those "healthy" products like shakes and bars actually contain a lot of hidden sugars.
She ran marathons, but she also suffered from allergies, bloating, breathing troubles, and many other health issues.
Then she started to experiment: organic sugar, fat-free, diets, food combining.
But everybody's body is bio-individual, and even though she was being health-conscious, she felt terrible.
She eliminated certain foods from her diet, like dairy. But especially, she took out sugar and starches. She got grumpy and emotional during her withdrawal, but she continued because she saw what was shifting for her body, her mind, and her emotions... for the better.
She also learned about sprouting, fermenting, as well as probiotics and prebiotic foods. And the importance of the microbiome (gut health).
Her goal was to feel better, not to lose weight. And now she feels fantastic! Her advice as a health coach is simple: look after your gut health, eat real whole foods and drink plenty of water.
