If you are considering any type of elimination diet, this is the video to watch! I share my experiences from the first THREE WEEKS of my Carnivore Elimination Diet. Watch my earlier video on this experiment where I share the foods I purchased from the grocery store in preparation for the diet: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tOz1iGR-ttc&t=157s Watch a video by Dr Paul Mason on the rationale behind a very low lectin diet: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mjQZCCiV6iA&t=268s Disclaimer: This video does not substitute for personally-tailored diet or medical advice. This video shares one person's experience with a short-term elimination diet trial. Ellipse Health values personalized nutrition and Ellipse Health Practitioners always perform thorough dietary assessments on an individual basis before making any therapeutic recommendations. Elimination diets are not designed as long-term, sustainable diets. Elimination diets should only be performed with the support of a healthcare professional.

Is coconut oil healthy? - I get this question at least once a day! So, I thought I'd make this video with my thoughts on the "healthiness" of coconut oil. Please keep in mind that what is healthy to one person, may not be healthy to the next person, and vice versa. Every individual is SO unique and has different dietary needs and preferences to thrive! Here is the link to another video I did explaining cholesterol / how to interpret your cholesterol profile: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WSH2_vn-HGo This video does not substitute for personalised dietary or medical advice. If you are interested in learning more about whether adding coconut oil into your diet would be an effective strategy, visit www.ellipsehealth.com.au/book-online to schedule an individual diet consultation.

Are you interested in stabilizing your blood glucose levels and burning fat for fuel? Would you like to track your progress using a marker other then scale weight? Testing your blood ketones and/or glucose can be a useful way to measure your progress. The level of ketones in your blood can be an indicator of whether or not you are burning fat for fuel! Nutritional ketosis does NOT equal ketoacidosis. Speak to a medical professional if you believe you are at risk of ketoacidosis (hint - if you can produce or inject your own insulin, your risk of ketoacidosis is very low).

This is not individual medical advice. Some people do benefit from using cholesterol medication, so please discuss the use of cholesterol medication with your medical practitioner during a medical consult.

This is Part 2/3 of a series I did with Tracey McBeath for The Nourished Mumlife Podcast. In this interview, we discussed the calories in = calories out hypothesis and how this doesn't apply to many (most!?) people due to the simple fact that our bodies are complex hormonal systems, not machines...

"There is a world beyond calories!" This is part 1 of 3 of an interview I did with Tracey McBeath for the Nourished Mumlife Podcast. In this video, we talk about the calories in calories out myth (or the eat less move more mantra) - and why it's time to put this to bed. We talk about some client scenarios that really showcase why there is so much more to the story than just calories. We discuss the scenario of a 40 something female, overweight, no energy, and feeling crap... yet, doesn't eat very many calories. Does this sound familiar? Tracey and I share how undereating + weight loss resistance or even weight gain is very real and possible, especially when calories have been reduced for so long.
