Series 4 - Episode 6 Train Your Brain to Better Enjoy Food & Life with Miguel Toribio-Mateas
Healthily
Series 4 is ending on a high with this really interesting and thought-provoking conversation with neuroscientist, Dr Miguel Toribio-Mateas. Through his understanding of the brain, he's able to explain clearly and with compassion how we can - quite unwittingly - programme our brains into thinking we're reacting to specific foods that we deem to be 'bad'. Not only that, how our brains can control the way we absorb and use the food we eat for energy and fat storage. Understanding this is powerful, because in making sense of how detrimental neuro pathways are set up and reinforced, we can then...

Series 4 - Episode 2 Understanding Perfectionism and How it Affects Health with Zoe Blaskey
Healthily
Today's conversation is with Zoe Blaskey of the Motherkind podcast. As a self-declared 'recovering perfectionist' and transformational coach, I thought she would be the ideal person to speak to about perfectionism, a trait that I see so frequently in the clinic with the clients I work with. While perfectionism has its benefits, it can be a real blocking factor in improving relationships with food, or just getting started on a path to better health, even if both outcomes are really desired! I hope you find this episode of interest and help. Short Bio: Zoe Blaskey is a qualified...

Healthily
In this episode, I chat with friend and colleague Olga Bonde about how many of us pick up a range of limiting beliefs about food, and how we should live and take care of ourselves, throughout our lives.

Olga presents a new way to view things, and we cover a range of practical suggestions to step into a new way of viewing things.

Series 3 - Episode 5 Hypothyroid & Hashimoto's with Virginia Blake
Healthily
In this episode I speak to Virginia Blake about thyroid health. We cover the basics of the thyroid gland, how it functions, and its role in the body. We look at what can go wrong with the thyroid, the importance of thorough testing. Virginia shines a light on some of the symptoms that can be linked to a thyroid disorder, that aren’t always recognised. We also cover some of the lesser known considerations when it comes to Hashimoto’s, an autoimmune condition affecting the thyroid.
info_outlineThis episode is a must for any female to listen to, whether you've been personally affected by breast cancer or not. Much of my work involves understanding my client's own unique biochemistry, as this is fundamental to addressing the root cause of illness, so I was delighted when my friend and colleague Dawn Waldron agreed to have a conversation with me about her work in the field of breast cancer, because I know she shares this passion. Her experience and insights demonstrate perfectly why it is so important that we approach health from a personalised point of view. It was an absolute joy chatting to Dawn about all things hormones (one of my favourite subjects) and about the benefits of working collaboratively with other health care professionals to provide a really powerful approach to supporting women through breast cancer treatment and beyond. This episode also provides practical information about how you can support your own hormone and immune health too.
Dawn is a leading UK nutritional therapist and life coach, specialising in breast cancer. Her popular workshops condense twenty-two years of survivor wisdom and sixteen years of clinical experience into a few hours of life-changing information. After graduating with distinction from the Institute of Optimum Nutrition in 2004, Dawn joined the education team and went on to teach at the institute for 5 years while building her practice. Since 2009 she has been in full-time practice, training in functional medicine and completing a postgraduate certificate in Personalised Nutrition in 2017. Dawn has gained a profound understanding of cancer as a metabolic disease through her work with breast cancer patients and now wants to take the message to a larger audience; she brings a unique blend of humour, warmth and insight to her work and this is really evident in our conversation today.
I really hope you find this episode as inspirational to listen to as I found to have with Dawn in person. Do join me on Instagram @nicolamoorenutrition for further conversation and updates! You can also visit my website www.nicola-moore.com to find out more about my work.
