Simon Hill - Eating Imperfectly vs Perfectly Eating

About this episode

<p>Chasing the &lsquo;perfect&rsquo; diet is a trap; which is&nbsp;<em>really</em>&nbsp;great news for our brand.</p> <p>Simon Hill, nutritionist, physiotherapist, and host of&nbsp;<em>The Proof</em>&nbsp;podcast, joins us in the Academy of Imperfection to break down whether the latest dietary trends on social media actually match up with nutrition science.</p> <p>In this episode, Simon unpacks the role of both genetics and lifestyle choices in shaping our health, and specifically our risk of disease.</p> <p>Acknowledging the pressure, and sometimes shame, that comes with chasing the &lsquo;perfect&rsquo; diet, Hugh, Ryan, and Josh discuss how to encourage kids to build positive relationships with food, and the incredible significance of &lsquo;joy&rsquo; and &lsquo;human connection&rsquo;, that occurs when we get together to eat.</p> <p>And then, of course, we play Simon Says and bust some food-myths about supplements, plant protein, and whether breakfast is the most important meal of the day.</p> <p>Simon, thank you for all that you says.</p> <p>To watch this full episode on YouTube, follow this link: <a href="https://bit.ly/4jyH2NL">https://bit.ly/4jyH2NL</a>&nbsp;</p> <p>🫖&nbsp;Other Imperfects episodes mentioned in this episode:</p> <ul> <li>Felice Jacka - Food For Thought - <a href="https://apple.co/4ciWgn5">https://apple.co/4ciWgn5</a></li> <li>Professor Tim Spector - Food Fight - <a href="https://apple.co/3OjRlXR">https://apple.co/3OjRlXR</a></li> <li>Maria Ruberto - Sleep Your Way to Your Top - <a href="https://bit.ly/3E3flgi">https://bit.ly/3E3flgi</a></li> </ul> <p>📖&nbsp;Things to read:</p> <ul> <li>The Proof is in the Plants - Simon Hill - <a href="https://bit.ly/4lbj7VC">https://bit.ly/4lbj7VC</a></li> <li>The Skeptics&rsquo; Guide To The Universe - Steven Novella - <a href="https://bit.ly/3QUPYjI">https://bit.ly/3QUPYjI</a></li> </ul> <p>🎧Things to listen to:</p> <ul> <li>The Proof with Simon Hill - <a href="https://bit.ly/3XCCDjS">https://bit.ly/3XCCDjS</a></li> <li>The Proof - Menopause masterclass (Part 1) - <a href="https://bit.ly/42aAoXC">https://bit.ly/42aAoXC</a></li> <li>The Proof - Your menopause questions answered (Part 2) - <a href="https://apple.co/4cx0MhW">https://apple.co/4cx0MhW</a></li> </ul> <p>💻Things to research:</p> <ul> <li>Approx. 50% of cardiac deaths are sudden cardiac deaths 50% - <a href="https://bit.ly/4juCffP">https://bit.ly/4juCffP</a></li> <li>30 different plants a week study - <a href="https://bit.ly/3XIXORj">https://bit.ly/3XIXORj</a></li> <li>To know more about ApoB, and it&rsquo;s link to cholesterol - <a href="https://bit.ly/42mRL6b">https://bit.ly/42mRL6b</a> &amp; <a href="https://bit.ly/426dVLe">https://bit.ly/426dVLe</a></li> <li>The Mind Diet - <a href="https://bit.ly/42p3zFd">https://bit.ly/42p3zFd</a></li> <li>Mediterranean Diet - <a href="https://bit.ly/4cPqBKp">https://bit.ly/4cPqBKp</a></li> <li>To know more about the Carnivore diet - <a href="https://bit.ly/3RcMZmR">https://bit.ly/3RcMZmR</a> &amp; <a href="https://bit.ly/426xvqT">https://bit.ly/426xvqT</a></li> <li>Creatine and cognition - <a href="https://bit.ly/4j8sd4e">https://bit.ly/4j8sd4e</a></li> <li>Impact of creatine on depression and CBT - <a href="https://bit.ly/3G401AL">https://bit.ly/3G401AL</a></li> <li>Impact of creatine on bone health for menopausal women - <a href="https://bit.ly/4cuahym">https://bit.ly/4cuahym</a> &amp; <a href="https://bit.ly/424KxoD">https://bit.ly/424KxoD</a></li> <li>Impact of creatine on sleep deprivation - <a href="https://go.nature.com/4cvR0wC">https://go.nature.com/4cvR0wC</a></li> <li>Simon&rsquo;s Prebiotics - 38TERA - <a href="https://bit.ly/4caa96Q">https://bit.ly/4caa96Q</a></li> </ul> <p>🦋If this conversation has raised some uncomfortable feelings for you around eating and food, these are some great resources to find support:</p> <ul> <li>Eating Disorders Families Australia - <a href="https://bit.ly/3TLU7J5">https://bit.ly/3TLU7J5</a></li> <li>The Butterfly Foundation - <a href="https://bit.ly/48YCSZe">https://bit.ly/48YCSZe</a></li> </ul> <p>🩷If you want&nbsp;<em>A Little More Imperfects</em>, join our Patreon to get just that -&nbsp;<a href="http://www.patreon.com/theimperfects">www.patreon.com/theimperfects</a></p> <p>🩵To purchase our journal (or your novel)&nbsp;<em>My Imperfect Life,</em>&nbsp;click here -&nbsp;<a href="https://bit.ly/3Cx4tGP">https://bit.ly/3Cx4tGP</a></p> <p>🩷To subscribe to the Vulnerabilitea-mail weekly newsletter, join through our website -&nbsp;<a href="https://www.theimperfects.com.au/">www.theimperfects.com.au</a></p> <p>The Imperfects is not a licensed mental health service and is not a substitute for professional mental health advice, treatment or assessment.
