Have you ever wondered if you should try "Intuitive Eating"?
IE pops up on my social media feeds every now and again and, although I'm hugely in favour of people using their intuition when they do anything, I can't help but think some people are not really being honest with you about how tricky it can be and how to start.
I talk about the issues many people face when changing their diet to a more intuitive one; From old habits, to a massive food industry that's trying to get you to ignore your intuition.
I also touch on the hotly debated topic of fluoride exposure in drinking water and its potential impact on children's intelligence.
You might have seen the scary headlines "FLUORIDE IN DRINKING WATER MAKES KIDS DUMB!" or, even worse, "Fluoride is a neurotoxin and will kill you"
Drawing from a comprehensive 300-page report by the US Department of Health and Human Services, I explore the moderate association found between high fluoride levels and lower IQ scores in children, especially in parts of the world with higher fluoride exposure than the US.
I try to give you the full picture, summarise the findings and reassure you about the current safety standards for fluoride levels in the US and UK.

Playing us out this week; "Kicking you out" by Neon Beach -
In this week's episode I have the pleasure of talking with Miguel Bautista from CFSrecovery.com about Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.
We discuss why CFS, also known as myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME), is often referred to as the "invisible illness," and talk about the daily challenges faced by those living with this misunderstood. and often ignored, condition.
Miguel provides a compassionate perspective on the importance of addressing CFS with empathy, alongside practical management strategies that highlight the parallels between CFS and long COVID.
We discuss the relationship between our modern, stress-filled lives and chronic illnesses such as CFS, fibromyalgia, and even long COVID.
We dissect how constant stimulation from technology and societal pressures can lead our brains to misinterpret everyday stressors as life-threatening situations, exacerbating anxiety and contributing to chronic health issues.
Miguel will help you find balance and reclaim your health with actionable lifestyle changes aimed at managing stress and achieving sustainable well-being.
You can find Miguel in all the usual places;

Should postpartum recovery be sport-specific?
I had a wonderful email from someone who said the following;
Hi Pete,Long time no see, I hope you’re well.
As you probably know I gave birth again a few months ago and am working with a team on my recovery.
We’ve only really just started so I’m very early on. My physio is (name removed) ,obviously I’ve known him for years, but my women’s health physio is someone Iv’e never dealt with before (and neither has anyone else I know in (name of sport removed)) and she said something that stuck with me and made me think…ermm…I’ll ask Pete about that.
She said that my post-partum recovery program should be specific to (sport removed). And yes going back to playing is absolutely key but, how is the program sport specific? when I asked her to clarify she said that another sport’s program is completely different postpartum than ours is and she was a bit short after that so I left it.
Any thoughts?
So that is what I'm discussing today.
I go through my reasoning and explain the way I work, with both athletes and non-athletes.
Is it different if you're a tennis or football player? What about for judokas and shotputters?BTW this episode is not just for professional athletes, it VERY much also goes for "normal" people who just want to go back to doing what they love to do.

Playing us out this week; "Karma" by Cira Grandi -
This week I am joined by the amazing Natalie Bevans as we're talking pre- and post-partum skincare.
Natalie is a Master Aesthetician and she very kindly gave up an hour of her time to explain to little old me why skincare really matters when you're pregnant or post-partum.
We discuss many things including;
How being pregnant and giving birth changes your skin.
Why your skincare routine needs to change when you're pregnant.
In fact, why it regularly needs to change (my ignorance really showing through here on this bit :))
The importance of looking after your skin
Skincare starts with what you put IN your body rather than what you put ON it.
And much, MUCH, more.

After receiving a tonne, well 6, of emails about postpartum backpain over the past few weeks I am bringing you a chat I had with David Jeter who is an awesome physical therapist. We're talking post-partum back-pain and the benefits of physical therapy and exercise generally.
We discuss many, many things including;
What is post-partum back pain and what causes it?
Is surgery THE solution?
Why is post-partum backpain soo often ignored by both the medical community and those suffering from it?
Why are people not aware just how effective physical therapy is to deal with back-pain?
How the PT community is doing a terrible job of promoting the benefits of exercise and is spending too much time selling cheap-tricks.
And how you can help yourself if you're suffering from any sort of muscle related pain.
In the news this week, this article from the American Association for Cancer Research which demonstrates nicely how certain myths don't die out.
I hear the following phrase a lot in my daily life "A glass of red wine a day is good for you" and it's just not true,
ALL types of alcohol raise the risk of certain cancers, which is something to be aware of.
HOWEVER...That doesn't mean drinking gives you cancer..stuff like this isn't black and white.

This week I talk about the many benefits of exercise during pregnancy.
I mention the story of one of my clients who came to me after the birth of her first child, what we did and what her condition was like that the time.
The we fast forward a few years and I talk about the difference she noticed, and felt, postpartum because we had done a bit of work during her pregnancy.
I mention the type of exercises we had done and the overall effects.
I also briefly mention the CycleSyncing episode as I've had some emails about this and what my main issue with the vast majority of them is.
Let me be very clear, as this is something I try to live by; When someone sells you something they should do that from a place of honesty and integrity.

This week I try to highlight that postpartum recovery, and postpartum health issues, are generally nothing to be scared of.
Diastasis recovery, pelvic girdle pain and back pain solutions are often sold to new mums as "you have A PROBLEM!! BE AFRAID!!" rather than "Yeah, we can sort this. Don't worry about it."
I highlight some of the tactics used to trick you into buying something you don't need.
I also talk about why I think most people will have enough if they have follow a good postpartum program for 3 months. After that you should really be able to start doing what you actually want to do again.

Is cycle syncing the next big breakthrough in fitness, or just another marketing gimmick?
Should you really only do weight training or HIIT for 2 weeks per month and does that really increase strength by 15% more than consistently doing it?
What about adjusting your diet to "balance your hormones"?
I have been on a quest to get my hands on the studies your favourite cycle-sync app/websites claim they have done and discuss what I have found.
At least one website regularly makes claims about studies that directly contradicts what the study actually said so..it does not bode well.
But tune in now to see if there's anything behind the hype, and find out what you should be doing.
Here is the blog post I referred to and here is the link to the actual study they butchered.

This week I am joined by Dr. Rebecca Dekker, founder of Evidence Based Birth, and host of the amazing podcast with the same name, as we talk everything childbirth.
Dr. Dekker reveals the shocking realities of hospital childbirth practices that often prioritize outdated routines over evidence-based care. Discover how restrictive practices, such as limiting movement and denying food and drink, can lead to complications and traumatic birth experiences.
Learn why advocating for yourself and understanding evidence-based childbirth practices can significantly improve outcomes for both mother and baby.
There is a huge difference between old-school obstetric care and modern, evidence-driven approaches.
Dr. Dekker shares powerful stories that highlight the impact of systemic structures in healthcare, which often prioritize efficiency over personalized care.
Hear about the prevalence of birth trauma due to these rigid systems and the transformative experience of evidence based practices that are not just better for the baby but, more importantly, are much better for the woman.

This week I am over the moon to be joined by Bianca Sprague from Bebo Mia
Imagine having a support system that empowers you through every stage of parenthood, from preconception to the early days of postpartum.
Bianca and I talk about the impact doulas have on birthing individuals and families. She explains the role of a good doula; how doulas offer nonjudgmental, continuous support, enabling parents to make informed decisions and navigate the often overwhelming landscape of pregnancy and childbirth.
We also talk about the vital advocacy role doulas play in medical settings.
We explore the fear surrounding medical statistics and the crucial support doulas provide in helping parents trust their intuition and make measured decisions during labor.
Looking back on the 2020 pandemic, we discuss the detrimental effects of excluding doulas from birthing spaces and emphasize the long-term benefits of trauma-informed, compassionate care.
As we delve into family dynamics, Bianca also talks about the crucial role doulas play in mediating prenatal conversations and managing generational parenting practices.
We explore how doulas help navigate the often stressful involvement of grandparents and other family members, ensuring a harmonious postpartum environment.
And finally, we discuss the expansive training opportunities available for those interested in becoming doulas, highlighting a comprehensive 17-week program designed to empower future doulas with the knowledge and confidence to support their clients effectively.
Bianca is an absolute marvel in the doula world and if you've ever considered a change in career, or doula training in general, then I would look no further.

Why resistance training for your upperbody is key if you want to recover post-partum. (And why there is a lot of it in the HPNB program)

Elaine breaks down the differences between neurotypical and neurodivergent brains, addressing conditions like ADHD, anxiety, depression, learning disabilities, trauma, and autism.

One of those things that keeps popping up is the age-old question;
"What matters more Calories, Macros or food quality when it comes to diets?"
So today that is what I am talking about.
When does each of these matter and when do they not?
Do you really need a 40-30-30 macro split for "healthy eating"?
1g of protein per lbs of body weight????
Should you start with protein when planning your meal?
Does it need to be organic or not?
I, in a roundabout way, answer all these questions.

After having several chats, and getting several emails via [email protected] asking about vaginal health this month I wanted to bring you this interview I did with Beth DuPriest PhD
Vaginal health expert Dr. Beth DuPriest, is the Chief Science Officer at Vaginal Biome ScienceDr. DuPriest is a former Professor of Biology and Division Dean and has been involved in research related to developmental origins of health and disease for over twenty years.
Her PhD in Integrated Biomedical Sciences through the Dept. of Physiology & Pharmacology and post doctoral work through the Dept. of Pathology were completed at Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU). Her work has been focused on both women’s and maternal health.
She has taught courses in microbiology, eukaryotic cell biology, genetics, biochemistry and pathophysiology among many others. She brings a broad background in women’s health and biological science and strong leadership and collaborative skills to advancing the work and discovery of vaginal microbiome science.Beth has spent over a decade researching and teaching about women’s vaginal and maternal health, now running clinical studies to test how improving the vaginal microbiome can improve a wide variety of vulvovaginal conditions
We are talking everything to do with vaginal health.
Why vaginal health matters much more than people think it does.
Whether you should use special soap or not
How taking care of your vaginal area improves your overall health, and the possible consequences of not taking care of it.
The vaginal biome.
UTI infections and how the vaginal biome ties in with this.
How much of a shame it is that women's health is soo ridiculously underfunded and the massive impact that has on women's health overall.
And much, MUCH, more
This is one of the most enjoyable, and informative, chats I've had in a long time and it'd be a shame to miss it!

I made the mistake of searching "diastasis recti" in my social media feed on Threads this week and boy-oh-boy..did I come across some nonsense.
So that's what I'm doing today, another "mythbusting" episode.
Can you heal within 28 days by doing only 4 exercises?
Is breathing useless?
Why do people use meaningless jargon?
Do posture and alignment REALLY mean as much as "they" say?
And why high-protein diets are not required for postpartum recovery.

As I'm still ridiculously busy with the upcoming exciting thing I can't yet talk about ;)
This week I bring you the conversation I had with nutritional therapist Kirsten Chick a few years ago.
Not only is Kirsten a nutritional therapist, She's a public speaker, educator, podcast host of not one but TWO podcasts and author of "Nutrition brought to life". In other words, she's incredibly knowledgable about all things food related.
We spent a solid hour talking about the effects of stress, and diet, on the human body.
We talk about the physical effects of stress on the human body, including on digestion and weightmanagement.
Whether food can cause an increase in the levels of stress.
Which foods help with stress-management and which nutrients to look out for, and what they do.
The benefit of taking 10-15 minutes screenbreaks, and other time-outs, every day.
Why eating whilst working is not the same as eating whilst stepping away from the computer.
The benefit of eating a bit more slowly.
And many, MANY other things.
It's a fascinating chat with tonnes of wisdom and advice for all of us but especially powerful for women with young children. After all, stress-management can have such a huge impact on the health and happiness of you, and those around you, and Kirsten gives you a LOT of "easy to follow and implement" bits of information.
You can find Kirsten's "Nutrition brought to life" on Amazon and Waterstone's.

Playing us out this week; "Just a breath" by NOVVA -
On this week's episode I talk about what I believe is one of the biggest problems in women's post-natal recovery; Fear. And especially "The fear of making things worse".
By far most of the emails I get refer to this in one way or another.
"What if I make my diastasis worse?"
"I am told I can't do X exercise because my stomach will rip open"
"The physio told me not to lift anything, including my toddler"
The fitness industry, especially the post-partum fitness industry, is selling you this idea that you have to be scared or disgusted all the time.
"BE CAREFUL OR YOU'LL NEVER RECOVER!"
"DON'T CARRY YOUR BABY ON YOUR HIPS OR YOU'LL MAKE YOUR DIASTASIS WORSE!"
"DIASTASIS IS A LIFELONG CONDITION.....so keep giving me your money".
"I know you don't like your post-partum belly but you gave birth and that's a beautiful thing" is a wonderful "negging" thing to do that makes you think you should feel unhappy with the way you look and it's something a lot of post-partum exercise providers like to use.
Though there are of course certain things you have to be aware of when trying to heal your diastasis/pelvic floor or any other post-partum issues that is not the same as being scared or digusted.
