Mini Mikkipedia - on my mind this week Mikki Williden, PhD 2024-07-07 | People say that age is just a number. And I agree - it's how you live your life that determines how young or old you are.

Neither should toast* Sometimes ‘good enough’ isn’t actually good enough - to reach your goals you have to do better* You can’t get everything you need from food* The people that take notice of the ‘eat less red meat’ messages are those that need to eat it the most* Most people could do with eating less carbs* 20g of protein in a meal is not a high protein meal* Most people under-report the amount of alcohol they drink* For most people, they don’t need to be perfect, they just need to be consistent* Don’t rely on one source of truth for your nutrition advice* Getting your nutrition advice from someone whose course was a week long is fine, until something goes wrong.* Why call it a ‘cheat meal’ if you’re only ‘cheating’ yourself* If you have toast for breakfast and a sandwich for lunch, you need to rethink your nutrition strategy* Those small tins of tuna/salmon are not a high protein option* Most people have an opinion on nutrition because they eat.* You can’t be healthy at any size if you don’t exercise* Those snack choices on a short haul flight are unnecessary and you don’t need to be eating a cookie* If you care about your cholesterol, cut down on your carbohydrate intake* Not everyone needs to lower their saturated fat intake* In nutrition, there are people and organisations who have an agenda that isn’t related to your health* Red meat isn’t high in saturated fat, actually* Most processed food doesn’t contain saturated fat as it’s quite expensive* If you don’t exercise, you aren’t healthy, even if you are lean* You don’t need to be entertained by every single meal* Family history is a big predictor in a lot of disease-states, however your genes are not your destiny* It’s never too late to change* Be wary of anyone who speaks in black and white, and won’t change their opinion in the face of new information* Cardio is really important for your heart and long term health and it’s wise to do that alongside your resistance training* Muesli bars/granola bars aren’t a good snack choice* If you live in NZ you need to take a vitamin D supplement and you need more than the dose that we are allowed to sell* Most people don’t need to snack, but athletes could do with that fourth eating opportunity* The iron supplement you get from your doctor is not the only choice for iron* Why are there ‘kids menus’ at restaurants?* Your high blood pressure is as likely linked to a high carbohydrate load as it is your salt intake* Some women train just fine fasted* For some people, intermittent fasting is the best approach, even if they are women* Fruit isn’t a health food for some people* Butter trumps margarine* Your cholesterol level is less important than what your doctor thinks it is* Most people need a magnesium supplement* Keto for fat loss is not a high fat diet* You can’t get fit by eating differently. You have to exercise* ‘Everything in moderation’ isn’t true for everyoneMikkipediaEpisode 273July 7, 2024★ Episode details: https://share.transistor.fm/s/25ed3196★ Additional episodes: mikkiwilliden.com
