Send us Fan MailIn Part 2 of our Agree or Disagree series, Vanessa and Heather are back with another round of health topics that challenge the conventional wisdom.Are calories really all that matters for weight loss? Are carbohydrates bad for women? Does fruit make us sick? Can you actually take too many supplements? And is more testing always better?Vanessa and Heather unpack these questions from their own experiences and perspectives, exploring the bigger picture of health—including circadian rhythm, stress, sleep, hormones, mitochondrial health, nutrient quality, and emotional healing.They also get personal, with Vanessa sharing how increasing her carbohydrate intake dramatically changed her energy, hormones, and libido after years of chronic illness and under-eating.In this episode, they discuss:Calories and weight loss: Why a calorie deficit isn't the whole storyHow circadian rhythm, stress, sleep, hormones, and mitochondrial health can influence metabolismWhether tracking macros is helpful—or potentially harmful—for different peopleWhy Vanessa believes adequate carbohydrates are especially important for women's healthThe relationship between carbohydrates, libido, hormones, energy, and metabolic healthHeather's experiences with keto and carnivore dietsWhy fruit isn't the enemy and how seasonal, whole-food eating can change the conversation around sugarSeasonal eating and choosing foods that make sense for the time of yearWhy more supplements don't necessarily mean better healthTargeted support vs. taking a long list of supplements “just in case”Vanessa's perspective on homeopathy and tissue salts as energetic medicines rather than supplementsWhy physical and emotional healing are interconnectedWhy we agree that stress management may be even more important than nutritionThe importance of morning sunlight for circadian rhythm and overall healthOur skepticism around excessive testing and the idea that we always need more dataHow social media can fuel fear, comparison, anxiety, and unrealistic expectationsWhy individualized health strategies are more valuable than one-size-fits-all protocolsAs always, this isn't about telling you what you should do.
