Do you have clients that no matter what you seem to do in terms of adjusting their training or nutrition program who can't get the results they want? It's important to remember and to have conversations surrounding the idea that everyone has an ideal body weight, and that this differs between people. However, sometimes we can see a plateau in weight or lab markers that indicate adipose tissue is too active (exerting estrogenic activity) and when this occurs we can start t...o look to other places in the body where there might be an imbalance. Research has shown a surprising and consistent connection between weight regulation and the composition of the gut microbiome.

Growth hormone is a critical component to muscle protein synthesis, which plays a large role in the amount of energy we burn on a daily basis. The thing is, the bulk of GH is secreted while we sleep. The amount of GH secreted is determined by when we sleep and how deeply we are sleeping. This is one of several mechanisms as to why regulating sleep schedules and ensuring good quality sleep can help, or hinder weight loss. ...

It's all in the details - when working with weight loss clients, it's the regulation of the extra ordinary that produces profound results. How do the mitochondria influence weight? The sparks note version is: Damaged mitochondria produce a lot of free radicals that drive inflammation (a risk factor for weight gain), and they can't produce energy efficiently - meaning that instead of using the macros for energy, once the baseline energy requirements are met, the rest get s...tored. It's a little more complex than this- which is why we cover it in depth in our new course that launches next week! Registration is now open - you can sign up through the link in our bio!

Alright, who came up with this Clean Eating term anyway? And what does it mean.. to eat clean? Does it imply a raw, vegan diet? No processed foods? But what even is a processed food? Do you eat only grass-fed meat? Does it mean dairy free, gluten free, sugar free? But if it means sugar free, can you eat dates? Are those clean? We’ve been in clinical practice for a few years now, have several years of post-secondary & a few degrees under our belts, have learned from some pre...tty profound indivduals in the functional nutrition/medicine sphere, teach other practitioners for a living- and we can say with 100% confidence, we have no idea what the hell it means to eat clean.

When it comes to working with weight loss, there is a lot of controversy. The way we see it ? Many clients see a nutritionist or personal trainer for weight loss, and this is a great opportunity to shift believe systems and create impactful change.

To add to the complexity- from a clinical standp...oint weight loss is also massively complex. It goes beyond calories.

It seems to be common knowledge that following a reduction in inflammation, there's a decrease in the onset of various pathologies. On par with the villainization of cholesterol, the common narrative of inflammation does not tell the whole story, and can be harmful to health. What is often forgotten is that short term inflammation in response to acute injuries, wounds or internal damage is integral to the body's ability to heal. https://www.fiorehealth.ca//nsaids-feeing-the-inflammatory
