PMR #303: The business of gut health, with Nouri founder Caroline Beckman

Conventional chiropractic readjustments are often unsuitable treatments for people who suffer from chronic pain. Today’s guest is Dr. Emily Kiberd, a chiropractor whose approach to the treatment of people with a range of symptoms extends far beyond the scope of her discipline. Dr. Kiberd has a holistic methodology, and works with functional medicine practitioners, develops comprehensive lifestyle plans and workout programs, and seeks to understand the root cause of pain and imbalances in her clients. Part of her focus is on women who are either pregnant, have autoimmune issues, want to lose weight or have Hashimoto’s. Her treatment plan in these regards encourages women to embrace strength training and she has actually developed a specific program for this called Thyroid Strong. Dr. Kiberd joins us on the show today to speak about her diagnostic processes, workout plans, belief in the basic pillars of good health, and own process working through Hashimoto’s. She also gets into her experience with pregnancy and motherhood and talks about the lessons she has learned through the process as far as keeping her body and mind in good form. This episode should be valuable to anyone who cares about health and wellness, so make sure you join us for a brilliant conversation.

Primal movement pattern body strengthening techniques used in Emily’s practice. How people with hyper-mobility require strength training rather than chiropractic adjustments. Ways that over-mobility can cause tension in other body parts and vice versa. What to look for in a doctor if you’re suffering from pain or tension. The necessity for autoimmune sufferers to stimulate muscle tissue through heavy lifting. Workout structure at UWC: 25 minutes, high weight, low reps, long breaks. Mental strength which women that do strength training begin to develop. Dietary unpreparedness pre-pregnancy which can lead to autoimmune issues. Genetic, food intolerance, and environmental factors that cause autoimmune issues. How Emily motivates clients to do the hard work/long recovery periods her methods require. Holistic diagnostic processes Emily uses involving questions of sleep, diet, and more. Different cupping methods and how they target lymph and treat ailments. Perspectives on ice baths and sauna use in relation to sympathetic/parasympathetic states. The necessity of maintaining good sleep, diet, and exercise before biohacking. Emily’s Thyroid Strong program: benefits, schedules, workout style, membership structure.   Tweetables: “A really, really good manual therapist, physical therapist, or chiropractor looks at where the body needs more stability and where it needs more mobility.” — @DrEmilyKiberd [0:16:11.1] “The autoimmune population, oftentimes as part of that autoimmune condition, has joint pain and muscle tension. Whether they've been diagnosed or not, you need to stimulate the muscle tissue.” — @DrEmilyKiberd [0:19:28.1] “The biohacking movement is cool, but if you don't do the basics and you don't do them well, and do them consistently, does it matter what nootropic you take, or how many times you're plunging into a cold bath?” — @DrEmilyKiberd [0:46:49.1]   Links Mentioned in Today’s Episode: Dr. Emily Kiberd — https://www.dremilykiberd.com/ Urban Wellness Clinic — https://urbanwellnessclinic.com/ Blog Section of Urban Wellness Clinic — https://urbanwellnessclinic.com/blog/ Thyroid Strong — https://www.dremilykiberd.com/thyroid-strong/ The Wonder Weeks on Amazon —  https://www.amazon.com/Wonder-Weeks-stimulate-developmental-predictable-ebook/dp/B075LP82WL Dr. Gabrielle Lyon — https://drgabriellelyon.com/ Izabella Wentz — https://thyroidpharmacist.com/ PMR with Dr. Ehrlich — https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/the-celiac-maniac-show/paleo-magazine-radio/e/63957761 Ralph Esposito on Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/dr.ralphesposito/ SHARE YOUR LOVE FOR PMR AND YOU CAN ENTER TO WIN SOME GREAT PALEO SWAG!

PMR #302: Working out without burning out, with Dr. Emily Kiberd

Light and eye health are an often-neglected part of our overall wellness. While many of us focus on proper nutrition, exercise, and mental health, we rarely turn attention to the impact that light has on our well-being. This, despite the role that light plays in eye strain, seasonal depression, sleep disorders, sleep function, and sleep hygiene, among many conditions. Our guest today, Andy Mant, is here to shepherd us out of the darkness and into the (safe) light. His company, BLUblox, produces a range of light-blocking glasses. Their evidence-based, research-backed products and information focus truly sets them apart. In today’s episode, we learn more about light blocking. We discover that blocking light is far more nuanced than we are led to believe. Light exposure is context-specific and solutions must deal with people’s specific circumstances. Andy also walks us through some ways to counteract overexposure to artificial light sources. We learn more about why sunglasses and sun cream are not all that they are cracked up to be and how they are potentially doing more harm than good. While this might seem counterintuitive, Andy’s got the research to back up the claims! This is a super interesting discussion on an aspect of our health that gets far too little credit. Tune in today. DOWNLOAD THE FULL TRANSCRIPT   Key Points From This Episode: Andy’s take on daylight savings, the pros of not implementing it, and how it relates to SAD. Learn about Andy’s background and what led him to work in light-blocking eyewear. What happened when Andy tested so-called light-blocking glasses he’d bought online. Find out the difference between balanced natural and imbalanced artificial light. The function of blue light, the effects of overexposure, and antidotes. Sunglasses are more harmful than we think: why covering your eyes isn’t so great! Why it’s not possible to have sunglasses that protect from the glare and let ‘good stuff’ in. Wearing sunglasses and sun cream is context-specific, according to Andy. Insights into melanin and how to build up a higher level in your skin. Two critical studies that Andy has recently read on sunglasses and skin circadian rhythm. An overview of the effects of the different colors in the light spectrum. Why it is so important to get individualized plans from general health information. Blue light has been unfairly demonized rather than understanding it in a nuanced way. Ask for the spectral analysis report before buying blue-light glasses and what to look for in it. A look at BLUblox’s different products and some exciting upcoming products. BLUblox’s charitable involvement and how to contact the company.     Tweetables: “We wanted to become different from our competitors in that we are evidence-based. We use the academic literature to design our glasses.” — @andymant12 [0:14:34.1] “Natural is the sun and artificial is anything that is in essence, emitting light during the day.” — @andymant12 [0:15:31.1] “We've started to play around with those light signals by blocking them when we shouldn't be, by partially filtering them when we shouldn't be.” — @andymant12 [0:29:59.1] “For us to have the perfect circadian health, we need to be outside exposing our eyes to the sun, regardless of whether it's raining, cloudy, sunny.” — @andymant12 [0:40:07.1]   Links Mentioned in Today’s Episode: Andy Mant on LinkedIn — https://www.linkedin.com/in/andy-mant-a5b0bb31 Andy Mant on Twitter — https://twitter.com/andymant12 BLUblox — https://www.blublox.com/ BLUblox on Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/blubloxofficial/ BLUblox on Facebook — https://www.facebook.com/BLUblox/ Light and Health Facebook — https://www.facebook.com/groups/135133877132861/ PMR #294 — https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/the-celiac-maniac-show/paleo-magazine-radio/e/65901880 Super Human Radio — https://superhumanradio.net/ Ben Pakulski — https://www.benpakulski.com/ Kris Gethin — https://krisgethin.com/ Bill Lagakos — https://caloriesproper.com/ Jack Krus — https://jackkruse.com/ Siim Land on Twitter — https://twitter.com/iamsiimland PubMed — https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/ Laird Hamilton — https://www.lairdhamilton.com/ Restoring Vision — https://restoringvision.org/ SHARE YOUR LOVE FOR PMR AND YOU CAN ENTER TO WIN SOME GREAT PALEO SWAG!

PMR #300: Celebrating 300 episodes of Paleo Magazine Radio: lessons learned

Our two special guests in today’s episode are Danny and Maura Vega who run the Fat Fueled Family, which is their personal brand that does coaching work around nutrition, fitness, parenting, education, and mindset. One of the main things that we talk about in the interview is Danny and Maura’s journey with varying diets over the years, and how they have tweaked and personalized different ones to find something that works. Maura started out as a vegetarian and the couple talk about how they progressed through stages of paleo, whole foods, keto, meat-based paleo, and a lower carb whole foods approach too. Another big topic in this episode and one which is quite unusual for the show is Danny and Maura’s approach to parenting. We talk about how our guests’ fluctuating positions on diets trickled down into those of their kids and about how ultimately the children were given the power to make their own choices about food. The whole philosophy of allowing kids to make their own decisions is a big principle in Danny and Maura’s approach to parenting more broadly in fact. We speak about how conventional schooling and disciplinarian practices don't fly with our guests, and how they are doing things differently to instill a love of learning and a sense of agency in their offspring. Anybody interested in the varying versions of keto and paleo, or about non-conventional parenting practices would love this edition of the show. DOWNLOAD THE FULL TRANSCRIPT   Key Points From This Episode: Weather comparisons between warm Florida, freezing Canada, and other childhood places. The story of how Danny had to do a preparatory year in Jersey before going to Columbia. Five themes FFF covers: nutrition, fitness, education, parenting, and mindset. How Danny went from politics to sales and finally quit his job to pursue nutrition. Going through pregnancy, injury, and medication while switching between diets. Danny’s bad nutrition habits as a powerlifter involving IV fluids and glucose tabs. The idea that a keto diet takes time to adapt to: 30 weeks according to Danny. Issues with the If It Fits My Macros diet regarding how it doesn’t create satiety. Problems our guests had with the initial transition to dirty keto. Danny and Maura’s approach to different kinds of paleo and keto diets with their kids. Unschooling philosophies and the idea that kids learn the things they want to better. A consideration of how unschooling prepares kids to fit into societal structures. Developmental readiness and how school regiments don’t accommodate it. How Danny and Maura handle feelings around togetherness and separation with their kids. Problems with today’s helicopter culture which sees parents policing each other. Understanding what peaceful parenting is: a non-authoritarian form of parenting. How children should have the same set of rules as adults. Why Danny and Maura don’t force their kids to share: to empower them.   Tweetables: “The first rule in communication is that people will only receive the information they ask for.” — @fatfueledfamily [0:21:25.1] “When he said, ‘Let’s try keto.’ I was like, ‘I’m in.’” — @fatfueledfamily [0:32:25.1] “Keto brings the carbs down.

PMR #299: Training, eating, and unschooling with the Fat Fueled Family

Our guest on the show today is Annette Verpillot, Canadian posturologist and founder of Posturepro. Annette is here to blow our minds about the causes of bad posture and give us some simple ways to address them. Posture has been defined as the maintenance of correct tension between flexors and extensors against the pull of gravity. Her perspective on how this balance is maintained looks a lot further than sitting upright though. According to Annette, the brain is actually the main cause of poor posture. It often finds itself processing a faulty sensory input and then responding by misdirecting the muscles. From the moment we are born, there might be imbalances in how we crawl or position our tongues. These issues go on to generate painful knock-on effects that most people live their whole lives with. Even our eyes or the way we sleep could cause improper movements that have posture-related effects. Luckily, many of these problems are reversible though. We get into all of this and more with Annette today in what proves to be a highly information-packed episode. Make sure you grab a pen before tuning in. CLICK HERE FOR FULL TRANSCRIPT  Our conversation has been generously sponsored by the 4th Annual Metabolic Health Summit that is taking place from January 30th to February 2nd in LA. If you’d like to go, you can get tickets on metabolichealthsummit.com. You can also get 20% off general admission tickets by using the code ‘PaleoMagMHS’. Enjoy!   Key Points From This Episode: Understanding posture as a bodily ‘global awareness’ and the body’s response to gravity. A description of optimal posture and how to know when it has not been achieved. How to use signals given by pain, bodily planar views, and clothing to diagnose bad posture. Whether athletes or sedentary folks experience pain from posture more acutely. Annette’s ideas about the brain being the first cause of poor posture. Links between DNA-based movement patterns and many bodily systems. How the brain, posture, and biomechanics are connected. Causes for bad posture in young children such as crawling wrong or walking too early. The centrality of the tongue in causing teeth, speech, and posture problems. Correct tongue posture and how to maintain it as an adult using red dots and a gum guard. Connections between sympathetic and parasympathetic systems, posture, and calmness. How eye health, and specifically focus-related issues, can affect perception and posture. Eye exercises for rectifying diverging or hypo-converging eyes. The error in perceiving the body as segmented in light of the centrality of the brain. A promising realization that many bodily ailments taken as incurable can actually be cured. Details about Annette’s consultation process involving few visits and simple exercises. The role feet play in posture, and tools Annette uses to cure flat feet such as insoles. Effects of jaw clenching and poorly tracking eyes on the body during REM sleep. Tips from Annette for pain sufferers: do her TED Talk eye exercises and stimulate your feet.   Tweetables: “The American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons defines posture as being the right amount of tension between flexors and extensors, which basically allows us as human to be able to stand upright and be able to fight gravity efficiently.” — @posture_pro [0:06:44.3] “A brain imbalance leads to a postural imbalance. A postural imbalance creates a muscular imbalance, and this in turn creates biomechanical constraints. You cannot have this problem without having in conjunction a digestive, or even immune system problem.” — @posture_pro [0:20:31.1] “We live in an era where we've cut the body into different parts and then we've created professions to address these specific pieces. We've neglected the fact that the body is a whole.” — @posture_pro [0:38:56.5]   Links Mentioned in Today’s Episode: Annette Verpillot — https://posturepro.co/annette-verpillot/ Annette Verpillot on YouTube — https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-hT-eOK3Dfk2g08o2O_xxQ Annette’s TED Talk — https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S3qdSo8z0Is Posture Pro on Facebook — https://www.facebook.com/Posturepro/ Posture Pro on Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/posturepro/?hl=en Metabolic Health Summit — https://metabolichealthsummit.com/ JP Sears — https://awakenwithjp.com/ Dom D’Agostino — https://www.ketonutrition.org/ Robb Wolf — https://robbwolf.com/ Ryan Lowry — http://ryanlowry.org/ Zach Bitter — https://zachbitter.com/ Charles Poliquin — https://www.poliquingroup.com/ American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons — https://www.aaos.org/Default.aspx?ssopc=1 Marie Jean Pierre Flourens — https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2117745/ Our conversation has been generously sponsored by the 4th Annual Metabolic Health Summit that is taking place from January 30th to February 2nd in LA.

PMR #298: How your eyes, breath, and mood impact your your posture, performance, and body mechanics, with Posturepro founder Annette Verpillot

Joining us on this week’s episode is Sabrina Wieser, German-born but New York-based marathon runner and coach who is known online as Running Brina. Growing up in a small hometown meant that Sabrina had never considered running as an option before moving to The States. New York’s flourishing running culture captured her imagination though, and she ended up falling in love with the sport. On top of being a sub-four marathoner with a massive online following, Sabrina is also very serious about lifting. We are lucky to have her on the show today to talk about - you guessed it - all things running and gymming! She lets us in on how she decided to take both sports so seriously in the first place, and you'll hear about all the dietary and workout logistics involved in making such an aim sustainable. Sabrina tells us about the marathons she has completed across the world, her training community in NYC, her ultra high carb diet, favorite running spots, and the city as a network of bridges, hills, and loops. We also spend a bit of time speaking about her quite unintentional trajectory into being a social media personality, her love of her day job, and why a social media-based career is not for her, even though it sometimes feels like a job anyway. Sabrina is an inspiration and her down to earth attitude about the value of sticking to a goal is infectious, so tune in for a great interview with an incredible human being. CLICK HERE FOR FULL TRANSCRIPT   Key Points From This Episode: Coffee habits and why Sabrina has switched to tea and cold brews due to caffeine overload! Sabrina’s relationship and eventual obsession with running after moving to NYC. Reasons why Sabrina didn’t run much in Germany due to the size of her hometown. Training, conditions, and how Sabrina ran two sub-four marathons in Berlin and New York. An interesting detail about Sabrina: that she lifts in addition to being a serious runner. Reasons Sabrina began gymming: she believed losing weight equated to running faster. What went into the diets and schedules enabling Sabrina to run and gym simultaneously. Distance preferences and the pros and cons of running as well as gymming. Sabrina’s running community and how she feels running is a form of meditation. Eating schedules, food obsessions, and how Sabrina found her perfect diet. Recovery practices such as getting good sleep, stretching, and ‘recovery runs’. How Sabrina got so huge on Instagram and her thoughts on social as a career. In-depth descriptions of the heavy carb-loaded meals Sabrina eats before races. The horrors of using gels to keep carbs up during races. Plans for running longer races but not ones involving nine loops around Central Park. Why hill training is great on treadmills but running is generally better outdoors. Sabrina’s favorite running spots in NYC and the upcoming races she has planned. The joy of using running as a way of exploring new places.   Tweetables: “What I had to figure out was really, ‘Okay. When I’m running, let’s say, five times a week, when do I go to the gym and train legs?’” — @runningbrina [0:17:24.4] “A runner doesn’t have to look a certain way. They come in all shapes and sizes, ages, and paces, and that’s really the place where I feel most comfortable.” — @runningbrina [0:22:20.1] “I went to the Dominican Republic with some of my friends who were born there. They took us to Santo Domingo and we ran the Santo Domingo Half. That’s really what we did. We explored the city running. It was amazing.” — @runningbrina [0:54:05.1]   Links Mentioned in Today’s Episode: Running Brina — https://runningbrina.com/ Sabrina Wieser on Twitter — https://twitter.com/runningbrina?lang=en Sabrina Wieser on Instagram —https://www.instagram.com/runningbrina/?hl=en Eight Sleep — https://www.eightsleep.com/ Adidas Runners New York – https://www.mena.adidas.com/adidasrunners/community/new-york-city Courtney Dauwalter — https://twitter.com/thedaucrew The NYC City Marathon — https://www.nyrr.org/tcsnycmarathon The Berlin Marathon — https://www.bmw-berlin-marathon.com/en/ The NYC Half Marathon — https://www.nyrr.org/races/2020unitedairlinesnychalf The Miami Half Marathon — https://www.themiamimarathon.com/ Gatorade — https://www.gatorade.com/ Adidas — https://www.adidas.com/us The Mount Desert Island Marathon — http://www.runmdi.org/ The Prince Edward Island Marathon — https://peimarathon.ca/ The Santo Domingo Half Marathon — https://marathons.ahotu.com/event/santo-domingo-marathon-half SHARE YOUR LOVE FOR PMR AND YOU CAN ENTER TO WIN SOME GREAT PALEO SWAG!

PMR #296: Another Paleo Q&A with Ashleigh and Beth Lipton!

The approaching holidays bring with them various temptations synonymous with this time of year. Rather than restricting yourself, we think you should indulge! Sensibly, of course. This is because the holidays are about so much more than being regimented about diet and exercise. They are about spending time with people you love. For many of us, it is easy to be disciplined or go off the rails completely, but this holiday season does not have to be either-or. Ashleigh reads Melissa Hartwig’s article, Eat, Drink and Be Merry, where she discusses the three reasons it is not a good idea to begin a nutrition challenge during the holidays as a means to stave off temptation. The piece also provides some excellent tips on how to find a balance during all the festivities through creating your own healthy guidelines. Today’s episode is once again kindly brought you by the Metabolic Health Summit, a four-day immersive event in LA next year, featuring leading experts in the field of keto, ranging from doctors to thought-leaders to scientists.

Whole30 is about creating awareness, which takes time you don’t have in the holidays. The holidays are stressful as is – why add an extra stressor through a nutritional challenge? Some food is significant for reasons other than nutrition, so indulge (sensibly). Top tips to not go completely off the rails during the festive season. Tweetables: “Why go through all the effort of giving up foods you like if you’re not going to learn anything from the experience?” @melissa_urban [0:06:49.1]   “During the craziness of the holiday season, when you’ll be faced with temptation on a near-daily basis, the added pressures of your Paleo challenge may prove more stressful than helpful.” — @melissa_urban [0:07:35.1]   “There is no guilt associated with a deliberately-made food choice.” — @melissa_urban  [0:09:19.1] Whole30— https://whole30.com/ Melissa Hartwig Urban on Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/melissau https://twitter.com/melissa_urban Eat, Drink and Be Merry — https://paleomagazine.com/eat-drink-and-be-merry/ Metabolic Health Summit — https://metabolichealthsummit.com/ Dom D'Agostino — https://www.ketonutrition.org/ Rob Wolf — https://robbwolf.com/ Ryan Lowry — http://www.ryanlowry.org/ Ashleigh Vanhouten — www.ashleighvanhouten.com Ashleigh Vanhouten on Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/themusclemaven/ If you’d like the inside scoop on some of the latest developments in the world of keto, go to metabolichealthsummit.com and use the code PaleoMagMHS for 20% off your ticket!

PMR #293: Finding joy, health, and balance after overcoming anorexia a conversation with Dr. Elly Michelle

Today we are so happy to welcome posture specialist and Rolfer Sukie Baxter onto the show. Sukie discovered Rolfing while she was in college and talks about how it changed her life forever by helping her flexibility, posture, injuries, and the comfort level in her body. It even lifted her mood and anxiety levels. Sukie’s main message today is that when it comes to dealing with pain, posture, and proper body alignment, it's not about having a rigidly straight body every minute of the day. Rather, we should become more aware of bio-individuality, the fact that we’re dealing with different things, exist in different environments and move differently. Therefore, having an awareness of good alignment, or the integrity of the relationships between body parts through different movements, becomes key. Good posture is relative to the action one is participating in. We get into so much more in this episode though, touching on poor medical practices, the role of work environments in perpetuating body pain, the relationship between body movement and culture, and the tendency to see mind and body as separate. We also hear a lot more about how Sukie approaches treatment, looking at the specific movement techniques she uses, the evolution of thinking in the Rolfing community, and the potential physical causes of psychological problems.  CLICK HERE FOR FULL TRANSCRIPT This fantastic episode was brought to you by Chomps, the first and only meat snack that is 100% grass-fed and finished, Whole30-approved, certified gluten-free, certified paleo, non-GMO verified, and certified humane. Go to chomps.com and use the code ‘PaleoMag' to get 15% off your first order of these glorious snacks.   Key Points From This Episode: Sukie’s connection with horse riding in her youth and why she stopped it at college. Why Sukie started rowing in college and what injuries she experienced as a result. How Sukie’s discovery of Rolfing had a wondrous physical and mental effect on her. Sukie hated corporate America after college thus decided to escape by studying Rolfing. The definition of Rolfing: a holistic approach to posture and movement therapy. How Rolfing diagnostics look at posture, movement, and even emotional state. Some of the therapeutic exercises Sukie uses which intend to create novel sensory inputs. Why Rolfing has become less painful. How the brain forms its map of body and space. People’s movements are modeled on those of their community. How minute changes in body language are immediately perceivable. The body’s desire for efficiency helps in the labor of correcting movement. Why the evolving thinking in Rolfing communities will lead to it becoming more mainstream. Problems with mainstream medicine and its un-holistic approach. The reasons behind the inability for Rolfing to be covered by insurance. How qualms to invest in physical health are linked to seeing mind and body as separate. Postulations about whether body-othering is unique to North America. Why one should recognize and appreciate the fact that valuable things require investment. The physiological processes that occur while foam rolling. How ‘Dermoneuromodulation’ relieves tension leading up to myofascial work. The real reason why people increase rolling intensity. What Rolfing can do to help scar tissue mobility issues. Sukie’s understanding of posture as dynamic, and her advice on maintaining good posture. The value of seeing posture as relative to the action being done. How technology distorts our sense of space. The importance of being in new and expansive environments. The role that modern environments play in perpetuating bad posture. Posture advice for people who are forced to work eight hours a day at a desk. The worst posture mistake that people make. What makes posture different from alignment. Maintaining alignment is about preserving the relationships between body parts. Rolfing treats muscle but also bone and tendons. How Sukie approaches the psychological aspect of injury and habit as a body specialist. An argument for the physiological cause of psychological problems. Tweetables: “Rolfing is a holistic approach to posture and movement therapy.” — @SukieBaxter [0:10:12.1] “Our bodies are designed for efficiency. If you can show them a more efficient way to move, they will tend to move like that.” — @SukieBaxter [0:14:43.1] “We really need to get out of our little computer box environments and we need to opt-out of these toxic work cultures that are requiring us to be in front of our computers for 12, 14, 16 hours a day.” — @SukieBaxter [0:51:23.1] “I had suffered from a lot of anxiety and I watched it completely disappear with more somatic practices.” — @SukieBaxter [01:05:44.1] “A lot of times, I think that what we think is thought-based is actually biologically-driven. I think the somatic is incredibly powerful.” — @SukieBaxter [01:07:11.1] Links Mentioned in Today’s Episode: Sukie Baxter on LinkedIn — https://www.linkedin.com/in/sukie-baxter-bba955183/ Sukie’s online practice — https://wholebodyrevolution.com/ Sukie’s Seattle practice — https://www.seattlerolfingtherapy.com/ The Human Potential Party — http://ashleighvanhouten.com/human-potential-party/ Tony Robbins — https://www.tonyrobbins.com/ Diane Jacobs — http://www.dermoneuromodulation.com/ Todd Hargrove — https://www.bettermovement.org/ Peter Levene — https://traumahealing.org/about-us/ Stephen Porges — https://www.stephenporges.com/ This fantastic episode was brought to you by Chomps, the first and only meat snack that is 100% grass-fed and finished, Whole30-approved, certified gluten-free, certified paleo, non-GMO verified, and certified humane.

PMR #292: Deep dive on posture with movement specialist Sukie Baxter

In today’s episode, I get to speak with Pete Maldonado, who is the founder of Chomps. If you have to eat healthily but you also like your meat sticks (because who doesn’t), you have definitely heard of Chomps. Pete’s awesome company has blown up because they’re doing a great job making high-quality meat-based sticks that are also really transparent. Chomps sticks are all grass-fed and finished, Certified Humane, paleo-friendly and even in some cases, AIP friendly. Today we talk about the business side of providing healthy products to the world, gendered food association and women as the main Chomps clientele base, and the most recent push against meat-based products. We hope you enjoy this conversation because Pete is a great guy and his company is fantastic.  CLICK HERE FOR FULL TRANSCRIPT By the way, please go check out Paleo Powder Seasoning, who is our amazing sponsor for today’s show. Go to paleopowderseasoning.com and use the code “paleomag” for 25% off all of the treats that you find there!   Key Points From This Episode: How Pete took jerky sticks as an unhealthy snack and reinvented them into Chomps.  The online strategies that Pete used to market Chomps before it hit the physical shelves. Some of the big physical and online retailers that Chomps is available from. Why online sales are preferable to retail ones as far as customer relations go. How it is hard to get into distributors like Whole Foods because of their screening processes. Pete used e-commerce sales data to get past the Whole Foods screening processes. 75-80% of Chomps customers are female. Chomps got a massive influx of sales after getting featured on Uncrate. Why Chomps changed its branding strategies from ‘natural-foods-looking’ to bright and bold. Ashleigh and Pete’s perspectives on Chomps customers and the gendering of different foods. How Chomps has shifted the concept that beef sticks are for men. What Chomps means for distributor category managers in having attracted female buyers. Pete’s perspectives on remaining consistent in branding despite trend fluctuation. How educating customers expanded Chomps sales outside of niched markets. The quality-related reasons for why Chomps beef comes from Tasmania. Why big American meat suppliers make it difficult to source ethical beef locally. The Beyond Meat trend, and speculations into its drivers: economics and misinformation. How the sustainable meat industry is being obscured by the plant-based industry. The need for arguments for sustainable meat to reach past previously convinced audiences. Explanations of ‘calories-in, calories-out’, and ‘whole foods-based’ approaches to diet. Alternative products are enjoyable to people who are not used to their original versions. The value of reading the ingredients of ‘healthy’ alternative products. The different ethical standards which define Certified Humane. New Chomps flavors such as AIP-friendly, Salt and Pepper Venison, and Italian Beef. Chomps are available online on the Chomps website and Amazon. Some insights into the ‘snack-able’ content in Pete’s new Youtube channel.   Tweetables: “It’s not like you could just say, ‘Oh, I’m launching this new product. I’m going to go and get a meeting.’ No, not how it works.” — @petemaldonado [0:10:37.1] “Being able to bring new customers to a category where they weren’t generally buying at is huge.” — @petemaldonado [0:16:30.1] “How is it that our farms that are sustainably raising beef with grass-fed, grass-finished processes are being lumped in with these feedlot, conventional, grain-fed operations here in the US. It is just night and day.” — @petemaldonado  [0:14:43.1] “We wanted to make sure that there were no tradeoffs and no compromises, and so if we could create something that tastes amazing, that people would eat whether they were on an AIP diet or not, then I think that we have a home run here.” — @petemaldonado [0:39:52.1]   Links Mentioned in Today’s Episode: Pete Maldonado on LinkedIn — https://www.linkedin.com/in/petermaldonado Chomps — https://chomps.com/ Chomps AIP-friendly stick — https://chomps.com/collections/chomps Chomps Sea Salt Beef — https://chomps.com/collections/chomps Chomps Original Beef — https://chomps.com/collections/chomps Chomps Italian Beef — https://chomps.com/collections/chomps Ashleigh VanHouten on Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/themusclemaven/?hl=en Paleo Powder pink — https://www.paleopowderseasoning.com/products/paleo-powder-pink Paleo Powder — https://www.paleopowderseasoning.com/ Paleo f(x) — https://www.paleofx.com/ Whole Foods — https://www.wholefoodsmarket.com/ Trader Joe’s — https://www.traderjoes.com/ Walmart — https://www.walmart.com/ MYER — https://www.myer.com.au/ Uncrate — https://uncrate.com/uncrate-app/ Dian Rodgers from Sustainable Dish — https://sustainabledish.com/ Sacred Cow — https://www.sacredcow.info/ Impossible Foods — https://impossiblefoods.com/ Beyond Meat — https://www.beyondmeat.com/ By the way, please go check out Paleo Powder Seasoning, who is our amazing sponsor for today’s show.
