This week, Stacy and Dr. Sarah dive into the science behind cruciferous vegetables and bust some myths regarding the best way to eat them or if you should avoid them all together.  Links to any products and articles discussed in the episode here! Listener Question: Hello Stacy and Dr.Sarah, I am a brand new listener and I am so glad I found your podcast. I find myself laughing as much as I am learning, so thank you! I wanted to know your take on cruciferous vegetables. I have heard they should only be eaten rarely and never raw or juiced. Is there any truth to that and why would that be the case? Apologies if you have covered this on a past show. Thank you both for sharing your own struggles with us openly. I feel like I just gained two new friends and my Fridays just got even better! -Thanks, Janet Don’t forget to subscribe to this channel and visit realeverything.com and thepaleomom.com!  If you haven't yet unlocked our bonus content, checkout Patreon for exclusive behind-the-scenes content and how Stacy

They review studies pertaining to longevity, stress and anxiety, and benefits of pets.  Links to any products and articles discussed in the episode here! This Week's Listener Question: Hello Sarah and Stacy, even though it's part of my job to listen to the podcast every week it's something I really look forward to and I am a fan! I highly value both of your thoughts and I had a unique question I would love your take on. I have recently found myself in a place a lot of single people have. VERY VERY alone. The only people I socialize with in person are my parents (once a month for a few hours) and the only other interaction I have is with the wonderful women I work with virtually, although we all converse almost daily and it is not 100% work-focused. I don’t have friendships outside of that or participate socially in any way. In addition, I have been off all

This week, Stacy and Dr. Sarah dive into the science behind a nutrient-density to decide if you can still be Nutrivore if you don't eat organ meat. Dr. Sarah shares her most recent work in Nutrivore and even announces the November launch of her new website, nutrivore.com! Links to any products and articles discussed in this episode here. Listener Question:  Hey ladies thank you for the amazing podcast, glad I found you! I have been following the AIP since January, sort-of. I found that I focused solely on what NOT to eat, rather than paying attention to what TO eat on the AIP, being that I felt my diet ahead of starting the AIP was already pretty healthy. Catching up on past episodes, realized I had completely missed the fact that following the AIP is intended to be focused on ADDING in foods.  I went back to my yes/no list and discovered I was sorely lacking in one area, organ meats. I can not get my head around consuming these. So my question is can I benefit from the AIP without them? Are there other ways

This week, Stacy and Dr. Sarah dive into the science behind how you can be more confident in your food choices. They look at how pregnancy and lactation can fit into the AIP and even recommend whole food sources for nutrient sufficiency. Links to any products and articles discussed in the episode here! Listener Question: I want to know how I can safely do the autoimmune protocol if I am breastfeeding and also don't want to lose weight. It seems every time I go even a bit lower carb at all, I lose weight I don't have to lose. My nausea gets worse and I feel like I'm starving to death no matter how much meat, fruit and veg I eat.  I eat a lot of nuts and avocado to try to keep up the calories, but it isn't always enough. I have a harder time falling asleep and wake up hungry in the night and can't fall asleep without eating something. It makes it feel impossible to make changes. I don't know what to eat and it's really stressful. Stacy and Dr. Sarah have talked a lot recently about weight discrimination as it

They look at how sugar is broken down, how it can impact health, and what we can do to ensure we're making the best possible choices. You can find the full show notes with links to the products and articles discussed on this episode here. Listener Question: Dear Stacy and Dr. Sarah, I am a long time fan of your amazing podcast and both of your blogs, and took the AIP lecture series a couple years ago and learned so much. I have listened to the whole series at least three times, and your voices have become like part of my brain now :) I feel so much attachment to both of you, and can’t tell you how much I appreciate the contributions you’ve made to my life.  My problem is sugar. I follow a maintenance AIP and my meals are great — ALL the veggies and seafood and healthy starchy veggies and working on organ meats! — but I have this one kind of ridiculous habit that I haven’t shak

Food as Medicine: the healing power of food and how a scientific mindset allowed Stacy and Sarah to ditch diet culture in this week's episode of The Whole View, 466. We recap our health journeys and how reframing health allowed us to embrace science-backed metrics of health, such as nutrient sufficiency, for living well - inside and out. You can find the full show notes with links to the products and articles discussed on this episode here. Listener question: Hey Sarah and Stacy! Long time listener here, love all your recent shows on the covid-19 vaccine. It really helped me feel confident in my decision to go get vaccinated. I happened to get the Pfizer! But, the real reason I'm writing you today is to get your help, not for me, but for my mom.  She doesn't have any diagnosed health conditions, but always complains about headaches, feeling tired, having stiff joints that make things like gardening harder, and she's always trying to lose those thirty pounds. I've been trying to get her to make some diet chang

This week, Sarah and Stacy dive into the science behind too many food restrictions and the importance of maintaining food variety and nutrient sufficiency. They share several strategies they’ve discovered on their own and offer recommendations to help you get the most out of your health journey. You can find the full show notes with links to the products and articles discussed on this episode here. Listener question: I'm very grateful to have found your book "The Paleo Approach" at my local library. I have since purchased copies of it and the cookbook for myself and family members because of the vital information in it. My question is: Having lupus and hypothyroidism causes me to steer clear of various foods and herbs, (nightshades and echinacea) and being gluten-free, dairy-free, sugar-free I am staying away from other groups of foods and dishes.  How can I reach optimal health benefits and nutrients having to avoid so many things that are supposedly "good for you"? - Sandy   Don’t forget to subscribe to thi

This week, Sarah and Stacy dive into the science of PFAS and forever chemicals, why they are so problematic, and what we can do to limit our exposure and make a change. You can find the full show notes with links to the products and articles discussed on this episode here. Instead of a listener question this week, Dr. Sarah and Stacy tackle a trending topic in health-conscious communities. Science has shown, pretty unequivocally, how harmful these chemicals are for decades. It's not recent science. And what we see in modern days is regulatory agencies not being able to keep up with capitalism demands. This topic is difficult to see in something other than a "conspiracy" lens. But that is why it's important to Stacy and Sarah now, more than ever, to make sure they stick to scientific research as much as possible. There are specific areas known to have high levels of PFAS. If you know you're in one of those areas, it's possible to test your blood for your exposure levels. Stacy reminds the audience that she and

This week, Sarah and Stacy examine the science behind Candida cleanses and shed light on some of the misinformation and claims we see online. You can find the full show notes with links to the products and articles discussed on this episode here. Listener question: I got diagnosed of candida, and my integrative doctor said to cut out honey or maple syrup for two months, knowing those are what I typically would use as a sweetener. When I look up the candida cleanse diet online, apparently fruits high in sugar and caffeinated drinks would be off the table also-not that my doctor recommended me to though. I know Dr. Sarah would say that our body needs the nutrients in fruits too for various reasons, and blackstrap molasses are a superfood. I am aware that even for healthy individuals, sweetener should only be consumed in moderation. However, for a Sjögren’s syndrome warrior now also diagnosed with candida, should I cut out maple, honey, molasses and fruits high in sugar even in moderation? Is AIP okay with candi

This week, Sarah and Stacy revisit previous episodes on ADHD and update the science behind natural approaches and medication. You can find the full show notes with links to the products and articles discussed on this episode here: https://www.thepaleomom.com/podcast-adhd-natural-approaches-and-medication/ No listener question this week, rather an important update to episodes #145 and #185 Science is an evolutionary process, and things change as we learn and grow. Stacy and Sarah have years of content they want to bring to the forefront as relevant and update any information that might have since changed. Stacy’s son Cole has inactive ADHD (previously called ADD), an attention deficit without the hyperactive traits associated with ADHD. Because of the differences, Stacy’s family manages Cole’s ADHD is very different from how they manage her youngest’s, Westley’s, who has hyperactive traits. Medication is not a failure. However, at the beginning of Stacy’s journey, she operated under the mindset that not medica

This week, Sarah and Stacy revisit the topic of oats and why it’s important to look at foods individually to see how they can fit into a better overall diet. They dive into the science of why oats are often grouped in with wheat and grains as foods to avoid. Lastly, they encourage listeners to gain the confidence needed to experiment with different foods to find what works best for them as individuals.   You can find the full show notes with links to the products and articles discussed on this episode here. Listener Question: First off, I ADORE you both. I feel like you are my best friends and just don't know it yet :) I want to eat raw heads of lettuce (I've done this for years!) and get angry about poorly conducted research with Sarah, and go lift heavy weights while discussing clean beauty with Stacy. I can't get enough of you guys! So, my question is related to oats. Because my diet has been restrictive for so long while I've tried to heal my digestive system after being diagnosed with celiac three years

This week, Sarah and Stacy look at the science behind antibiotics’ impact on the gut microbiome and what we can do to break the Stress-Flare-Antibiotic Cycle as much as possible. Stacy gives insight into actions you can take outside the body, while Sarah dives deep into foods and lifestyle habits that can help from within. You can find the full show notes with links to the products and articles discussed on this episode here. Listener question: First off, my mother and I love your show and have been listening to the show for years. I love how you can tackle complicated topics and boil them down to easy to understand and enjoyable shows. Stacy, your journey with your son through ADHD was such a help for me when my oldest son was diagnosed. It gave me a place to go when I wasn't sure where to go next. Now to the reason I'm writing to you. I have been battling rosacea flares ever since 2010 when I had my first son. Pregnancy seemed to set everything off and I now deal with flares off and on. I know stress is a t
