Decoding the Mind-Food Connection with Nutritionist Kim Shapira • 337

We will learn:

• How to recognize and manage self-denial with food
• How to decode your body’s food language
• How to find serenity in indulgence

Have you ever felt trapped by your own thoughts about food and eating? Like you’re stuck in a cycle and can’t get out? 

Right now, there's a big push against labeling any food as "bad." I agree that no one should feel shame about what they eat. For me, though, learning how our bodies react to certain foods was a game-changer. Realizing that many processed foods are engineered to be addictive shifted the blame away from my so-called lack of willpower to understanding the science behind it.

Personally, I don't classify all items as food; some are just lab creations to me. And some people feel like that is shaming…

I get that my approach might not jive with everyone's latest theories, but it's what's worked for me and others I know. However, I emphasize, what works for me doesn’t work for everyone. In today’s episode I’m going to give space to someone with a different view that has worked with more people than I have personally around this topic. 

So today we’re changing our relationship with food in whatever way works for us.

Our guest is Kim Shapira. She is a celebrity dietitian, nutritional therapist, and author, with a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology from Tulane University and a Master’s degree in Human Metabolism and Clinical Nutrition from Boston University. Kim has spent over 25 years helping people lose weight and keep it off (with a giant emphasis on keeping it off).
