Paleo Magazine Radio

If you’re listening to this show, you might be eating a perfectly Paleo diet, eliminating grains, legumes, industrial seed oils, and, of course, the devil’s excrement, gluten.  But are your feet regularly making contact with earth?  Do you have deep, meaningful relationships with friends and family?  Are you connected to your own body? Frank Forencich, creator of the website, Exuberant Animal, and the blog, book, and transformational seminar series of the same name, has sought for years to address the primate’s dilemma: how we as ancient bodies can navigate this modern world with vitality and grace.  We’ll be speaking with Frank to get his ideas on how you can expand your Paleo diet into a Paleo lifestyle. In the second half of the show, we talk with Exuberant Animal Master Trainer Josh Leeger, and Exuberant Animal fan Jeff Rampino, about what it means to be serious about play.

Heart Rate Variability (HRV) is a measure of the time between individual heart beats and, as physiological phenomena go, this might not seem very remarkable. What is remarkable however, is what HRV tells us about the balance between the two main branches of our autonomic, or involuntary nervous system. Between them, the processes of rest and digest, fight or flight are balanced, making the measurement of HRV an incredibly powerful tool. In the first part of this episode, Tony talks to Simon Wegerif, the inventor of ithlete, a smartphone app that uses information from a standard heart rate monitor to measure HRV. In the second half, he speaks with Chris Branciere, from the Biofeedback Associates of North Florida, who has used HRV/Biofeedback systems to treat a variety of health conditions. Both guests share why you should be discovering what your heart rate variability is and how it can help you live a happier, more balanced life.

The popularity of the Paleo movement is surging, and for many people the concept is appealing because of the state of our times: too much technology, processed food and sedentary living. But is Paleo the first of its kind? What can previous back-to-nature philosophies tell us about where the modern Paleo movement is heading? To help us explore this topic, host Tony Federico speaks with Dr. Hamilton Stapell, Assistant Professor of History at the State University of New York, New Paltz. For the second half of the show Tony has a conversation with Derrick Martin, an accountant/personal trainer who lost nearly 100 pounds following the Paleo diet.

Hippocrates, considered by many to be the father of western medicine, is quoted as once saying, “Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food.” But in today’s world, food is often the last thing doctors discuss. Patients are subjected to a laundry list of expensive tests and treatments designed to address symptoms rather than their underlying causes. Fortunately, however, there are still those who take Hippocrates’ words to heart. One such person is Aglaeé Jacob, a registered dietitian who believes in the healing power of eating real food. She’s a regular contributor to Paleo Magazine and is the author of an upcoming book called Digestive Health with REAL Food: A Practical Guide to an Anti-Inflammatory, Low Irritant, Nutrient Dense Diet for IBS & Other Digestive Issues. In the first half of today’s show Tony talks to her about her book, her career and how she came to embrace the paleo philosophy. In the second half of the show he chats with one of her actual clients, Sabrina Meichtry.

Women make up over half of the population in the United States and there are numerous diets, weight loss products and services marketed to them in the quest for health, beauty and happiness. But do these cause more harm than good? Is there a better way for women to reach their goals, or do the goals themselves need revisiting? To help answer these questions and to share their own experiences, host Tony Federico talks with an all female panel of expert and everyday guests - Stacy Toth of the Paleo Parents, Krista Scott Dixon of Stumptuous.com and Shelly Good, one of his friends he met on Facebook.
