Don’t worry. This is not an episode about shaming foods or nutrients, like alcohol and sugar, and making you feel guilty about your food choices over the festive season.We’re not judgmental nor do we make you feel guilty about food at The Healthy Eating Hub. It’s not what we do.This episode is a compilation of traditional Christmas foods that are just plain gross. Foods that you know might be served on your family’s table but you avoid it at all costs, simply because you can’t stand it!To help me put this episode together I rallied the troops over on my Facebook page for their worst Christmas foods ever!This podcast is proudly brought to you by the Capital Chemist.

You may have good nutritional knowledge and be willing to make positive changes to your eating habits but without adequate kitchen skills you’ll be left feeling frustrated and bored. If you can’t translate that nutrition information into a meal on your plate, three times per day, seven days per week, 52 weeks per year, what’s the point?You don’t need to be a masterchef, or even like cooking, but you do need the ability to create tasty and enjoyable food without too much fuss. Otherwise, you’ll easily default back to tasty, convenient foods when you’re tired of plain chicken and boiled broccoli.In this episode, I’ve got 12 kitchen items that I believe are essential for eating healthy and enjoyable meals!This podcast is proudly brought to you by the Capital Chemist.

I’ve been helping people lose weight for a long time. After years of chatting to people about their health, their food, their exercise, their daily habits and all the factors that go into successful weight loss, not to mention losing weight myself, I’ve concluded a few things:Most people are not successful at losing weight.If people happen to be successful at losing weight, they’re not successful at keeping it off.Weight loss is super hard. Maintaining weight loss is even harder, for a whole bunch of different reasons. And if I were to get into the biochemistry of how our bodies function metabolically and why it’s so hard, I’d need 100s of podcast episodes. Just know that it’s complicated.Despite the complications, there are some common mistakes that many people make. One or more of these reasons might be why, year after year, you’re still “trying to lose weight” – often frustrated and over the constant mind games!In this episode I’m going to chat through the main reasons you’re not losing weight and what you can do about it.This podcast is proudly brought to you by the Capital Chemist.

“Please leave the nutritionist at home” is a common sentiment of my family whenever there’s a party involved.I mean, come on, let’s not ruin a good party by being too healthy.It’s a common social idea that healthy and fun can’t go together in the same sentence. We say things like “Let’s be evil and eat cheesecake” and “I was naughty last night and drank lots of wine”. Party, fun, alcohol, sugar. Party, fun, water, vegetables. Hmmmm….It’s also becoming more common, however, that people are so obsessed with healthy eating that God forbid a piece of cake pass through their lips.They scrutinise every nutrition information panel for sugar and even truly healthy foods get removed from the diet for fear that their consumption might end in peril.So how do we strike a healthy balance for healthy eating at Christmas time? In this two-part episode series, I’m chatting through a bunch of delicious and nutritious Christmas party food ideas so you can have fun and nourish your body at the same time!This podcast is proudly brought to you by the Capital Chemist.

Stop eating sweet foods after dinner.When it comes to changing an eating habit that has proven difficult to break, you’ve got to move beyond behaviour management and dig a little deeper into your psyche.In this episode I’m chatting about how to stop eating sweets after dinner and get back in control of your food choices.This podcast is proudly brought to you by the Capital Chemist.
