Robb Wolf joins Drew on this educational podcast about the importance of understanding your unique nutritional needs. Robb grew up in a family who didn’t stress the importance of a healthy lifestyle or nutrition. During his college years, Robb experimented with his diet and basically stressed out his body. He ended up with ulcerative colitis and, instead of removing half of his intestinal tract, he decided to change his nutritional life. Robb’s new book, Wired to Eat, looks at the science associated with a body’s glucose levels.

Drew and Robb discuss medical technologies, why one diet doesn’t fit all and parenting during the nutritional crisis in the U.S.

Key Takeaways:

[05:33] At 26, Robb had worn his body down due to unhealthy eating and sleeping habits.

[16:22] Robb had to rethink his program after clients found early success but then became exhausted.

[29:43] Humans should be metabolically flexible.

[41:03] Always apply medical technologies in a manner consistent with a healthy lifestyle. 

[46:53] We are genetically wired to eat more and move less.

[54:24] Robb's children understand the concept of healthy eating.

Drew has many podcasts about the physical side of transformation but he knows it takes more than meal plans and planks to truly transform. So, he asked Master Life Coach, Christine Hassler to join him on the show to talk about the mental and emotional side of transformation. Christine shares the story of how she had to hit rock bottom before she could look at her problems in a different way. This enlightening conversation touches on weight release, parenting and how to make your inner critic an ally instead of an enemy.   

In addition to her work as a life coach, Christine is the author of three books and host of the Over and On With It podcast. She also leads seminars and workshops for men and women.
