Those are questions I've found myself pondering in the past and questions I often get from others. What should buy organically and what things don't matter quite as much?

Inside today's podcast, we dive into the truth about organic foods, what you need to know, what foods you should focus on buying organically and how this impacts the health of our bodies.

It's a show to listen to, especially if you wrestle with these same questions. Also, make sure to keep reading the post where I share five ways to get organic on a budget.

But before we get to either, can I get on my soapbox? Okay, good, because I'm going there.

While I do believe this is a valid conversation and in some cases debate, the truth of the matter is that the most important thing is just choosing to eat more whole foods. If you're still working on that aspect, do NOT worry about whether it is organic or not. Because if we look at death rates in America, the number one and number two cases of death still boil down to what type of diet people are eating, processed versus whole.

And if we go another step then we can grasp that produce only accounts for a small percentage of chemical usage, so switching from processed foods to more whole foods is still going to decrease the chemical exposure in general. So rather than arguing so hard over organic or not, I think we first need to clarify that the most critical element is still whole foods, whether that is organic or conventionally raised.

After you achieve that massive step, then you may want to consider what is inside this podcast.

Hormones are a hot topic, as they should be. They can make the difference between brain fog and clarity, weight gain and loss, drive and passion versus brain fog and fatigue, and so much more. The question becomes, why do so many people suffer from hormonal imbalance and how do we make it right?

We're diving into hormones on today's podcast along with a few other topics like birth control, menopause and how men and women can use their hormones to connect at a deeper level.

Poor posture, mom pouch, hip pain, back pain, and incontinence are some of the signs your pelvic floor isn't as strong as it could be. I'm no stranger to this. Let's say I need extra protection when we're headed to the jump park.

Of course, blaming the three babies I birthed for the struggle while giggling with my friends at the absurdity of incontinence.

But the truth of the matter is, Kegels are a struggle. I along with much of the population fail to practice Kegels regularly, let alone the correct form. But my posture seems to be worsening and my hip pain is intense at times. No matter how much I workout that mom pouch is still there.

This got me thinking, what is the exact culprit, the source behind it all? It's your pelvic floor which is the core and linkage point that when strong can impact your entire body.

Today on the podcast I'm interviewing a pelvic floor expert, MaryEllen Reider on:

  • How to strengthen your pelvic floor
  • The proper way to do Kegels
  • If it will get rid of the mom pouch and help my posture

And so much more! It's a great episode and dives into pelvic floor health for both men and women.
