Paleo Magazine Radio

Welcome to another episode of Paleo Magazine Radio. We're sure you've all heard the phrase, "Trust your intuition." Typically this advice means that we should listen to that little feeling in our gut that mysteriously chimes in when something is right or when something is wrong. But what if your gut wasn't the only source of intuition? What if your workout itself could tap a hidden font of awareness? In today's show, fitness expert Jen Sinkler talks to us about a technique called intuitive training that can actually help you unlock hidden performance or even get out of pain. In the second half of the show, we're joined by Adam Farrah for another installment of big-picture Paleo. Adam and Tony discuss techniques for busting burnout, an all too common syndrome for those of us that like to push it to the limit.

Known to his fans as “The Dean of Mean,” UFC Heavyweight fighter Keith Jardine had notable wins over former UFC champions Forrest Griffin and Chuck Liddell. Despite his success in the Octagon, however, his body was being broken down by chronic overtraining, extreme diets and stress. A conversation with Keith’s friend, Tait Fletcher, made him realize that he had to change his ways and he ultimately adopted the Paleo lifestyle. As a coffee snob, Keith also realized that he really liked bullet-proof coffee. At this point, Keith has fully embraced the Paleo lifestyle; he even opened his own yoga studio to incorporate more mindful movement in his daily life. He’s drinking bullet-proof coffee and along with Tait Fletcher has founded the Caveman Coffee Company. We think you’re going to really like our conversation with Keith today and we think his story is going to give us all a lot of insight into how difficult it can be to balance work, life, your passions and health. But ultimately it is possible to overcome these challenges and put it all together. In the second half of the show, we’re going to be featuring J. Brett Smith, Program Chair of the Ancestral Health Symposium. He’s going to be talking about what’s coming up with the Ancestral Health Symposium, what we have to look forward to and give us a little bit of insight into the gap between the science of evolutionary biology and the practicality of the Paleo lifestyle.

If you follow the Paleo movement on Instagram, chances are you’re familiar with OMghee. Founded by Mitul Parekh, OMghee’s mission is to produce the best-quality ghee humanly possible. This clarified butter is traditionally used in Indian cooking, and Mitul was first exposed to ghee by his grandmother, who always kept a big jar on the kitchen counter. As an adult, and after going through a couple of ups and downs health-wise, he rediscovered how good ghee actually is for you while attending a Paleo workshop at his CrossFit gym. He turned to his friend and said, hey, we’ve got to get in on this, and they began to explore how they could bring high-quality ghee to the Paleo community. In the second half of the show, Tony speaks with Dan Kish, Vice President of Food for Panera Bread.  You heard that right: Panera Bread. Panera is rolling out a new initiative to give their customers more selection, more choices, more options, and then to also provide more transparency, including options for Paleo-friendly items at their stores. We know it’s hard to believe, but we're going to let you guys decide for yourself if you think Panera’s heart is in the right place after listening to Dan Kish talk.

Host Tony Federico talks to Liz Wolf about the essential nutrient vitamin D. Originally featured in episode 49 of Paleo Magazine Radio. Books by our guest

For many people, thinking about food leads to better food choices. But what if your food leads you to thinking? For Jared Stone, author of Year of the Cow, going through an entire grass-fed steer transformed not only his personal health, but the way that he spends time with his family and the way that he considers the food on his plate. In today’s podcast we speak to Jared about his journey cooking his way through an entire cow, experiences with zombie lobsters and how good food turned into good movement, good human interaction and a whole slew of other positive changes in his life. In the second half of the show Tony is joined by Cain Credicott, Paleo Magazine editor in chief, in another installment of Paleo Magazine Audio Insider. Today’s subject: Paleo Fitness; our brand new digital publication that’s available now on iTunes, Google Play and Amazon.com.

Host Tony Federico talks with The Domestic Man about the proper way to roast a chicken. Originally featured in episode 48 of Paleo Magazine Radio. Books by our guest

For some people food is fun, food is delicious; food is a way to express oneself, to share love. But for others, food is a means to control circumstances that they feel are out of control in their life. These circumstances can be an internal world of turmoil and charged emotions, or external circumstances that are dangerous and threatening. What can result is a natural coping mechanism that we call an eating disorder. For people without eating disorders it can be hard to imagine how food can become so much more than what is on your plate; how it becomes all encompassing; how someone can obsess every moment, day in and day out, over what they ate, they didn’t eat, what they wanted to eat, what they shouldn’t have eaten, the guilt, the suffering, all of it layer upon layer building up and hiding the original trauma. My own personal relationship to disordered eating goes back to my childhood when I had my first binge with a jumbo sized bag of Doritos. This is something that continued through elementary school, through middle school, through high school, through college; even as I began my career in fitness I battled with binge eating and exercise bulimia. The conventional fitness model of low fat foods and calories in versus calories out only made things worse for me and I experienced a tremendous relief when I first began to follow the paleo diet. I pretty quickly realized, however, that following a strict paleo diet wasn’t for me. It set me up for a binge just like anything else. And so I realized that I had to find balance. I’ve continued my own path of self work, of self healing, self acceptance and self love and this has been tremendously beneficial. In addition to following a moderate version of the paleo diet where my goal is to improve my health, to feel better and to make positive food choices, sometimes that means eating paleo foods. Sometimes that means eating something that’s decidedly not paleo. But this is what I’ve had to do in order to be healthy for me. Because of where I’ve come from, I am interested in how other people relate to food, disordered eating and the idea of what health is. I read a blog post by Stacy Toth some time ago and I wanted to talk to her about this subject because I could see myself in her story and I could relate to the experience of seeking health but having it blow up in my face, feeling like I’ve taken two steps back for every one step forward. In today’s show I talk to Stacy about the blog post that inspired this podcast episode. But I also wanted to talk to some other people who had struggled with similar issues. In addition to Stacy’s story, you will hear from Madelyn Moon, a former fitness competitor turned body positive blogger, as well as Kaila Prins, who’s been podcasting and writing about the subject of body acceptance and the subtle and not so subtle ways that society tells us how we should look. We will finish the discussion with eating disorder expert Bonnie Brennan, who has worked as a professional counselor for eating disorder clinics for decades. She shares her experience working with patients who have suffered from eating disorders, what the signs and symptoms are, and what resources there might be for those of you listening who might need some help.

The Paleo Miracle 2 is a collection of stories from women whose lives have been transformed by the Paleo diet and lifestyle.  It’s a followup to the original book, The Paleo Miracle, and this one does not disappoint. In the description of The Paleo Miracle 2, it says that the truth is, women are capable of a lot more. They can grow stronger, get healthier, and live better and more authentic lives than anyone thought possible. The proof is in these pages. In today’s episode of Paleo Magazine Radio, we’re bringing those pages to life with interviews from Paleo Miracle 2 contributors Amira Lamb, Sarah Fragoso, and Katy Haldiman, as well as the two organizers of the book, Joe Salama and Adam Farrah, a regular that you’ll recognize from his segment right here on this podcast, Big Picture Paleo.
