Dr Libby Weaver Nutritional, biochemist and multiple best-selling author talks with Angela about the three pillars of biochemical, nutritional and emotional which underpin her work and why our beliefs and perception drive our behaviours.
When we make choices about foods that don’t serve us it’s never about the food it’s the way we distance ourselves from the way we perceive things are when they are not how we want them to be and this fascinating episode explores how the combination of science, belief systems and nutrition is key in achieving effortless weight loss.
 
KEY TAKEAWAYS

There are consequences to shifts in our bio-chemistry
There is no one way for everyone to eat because everyone is different. What everyone should do is eat a diet that is based on real wholefoods
The focus needs to be on creating good energy and nourishment
Detoxification is a process that is always going on inside of us but can be impacted by lifestyle choices
Detoxification is a change process; the liver takes toxic substances  and changes them so that they become harmless
Eating a wide range of whole real foods supports the liver with detoxification
Constantly elevated stress levels start to change the fuel the body perceives as being safe to use
When the body is under stress it looks for a fast-burning fuel and it looks to glucose.
The pattern of adrenalin production  today has resulted in inflammatory compounds  in the body
High levels of adrenalin create inflammation and cortisol has to increase to deal with this
Your body responds to the information you give it
Our actions are driven by our beliefs and how we perceive ourselves
We construct ourselves and live as if we need approval and in unpacking the beliefs you have created you need to be flexible about how others perceive you
You have to do the inner work if you want to make changes to your beliefs
It’s never about the food its always about the emotions
Humans will do more to avoid pain than gain pleasure
Ask yourself if what you are thinking is really true?
