Today we're talking about one of our favorite topics: stress and restrictive diets. Laura and Kelsey both work with clients all the time that are doing more harm than good to their health by trying to eat the "perfect" diet, and we're hoping that this podcast episode will inspire you to re-evaluate your current dietary approach and determine if you need to be less restrictive or reintroduce new foods that you've been avoiding. We could talk about this topic forever, but we want to hear from YOU! So leave your comments below and share your story!

Here's what Laura and Kelsey will be discussing in this episode: Paleo is very restrictive and if you start listening to all the experts like Chris Kresser etc you really risk to go nuts unless you live a life with lots of free time to make everything on your own and to not just eat salads every day. I have been trying to follow advice on what is "right" and "bad" , making lots of homemade food, paying attention to this and that, but that's not always possible for normal people with an 8hr job and a family. I believe the risk is to get stressed out like I did and in the end we know that stress is part of the "bad" list. So how important is finding balance in your life, even incorporating some of the bad's in order to reduce stress from your life?
