009 - Carbohydrates

Welcome back to another episode of the Mo Primal Podcast.In Episode 12, which is really like a MPP2.0 Episode 2, I have structure! :)I start off with a "news topic" in the health and fitness world. This show brings you honey. I thought we knew everything there was to know about it, but honey is back in the news. Thanks to CNN, I bring you a couple sweet points of interest that really stuck to me. That was a pun. Did you catch that? Next!I slipped. My diet took a dip. Not a dive; it wasn't major. Perhaps we can call it a worthy compromise? Have a listen and let me know if you agree.As for the exercise of the week? Coffee curls. That's my morning workout. Don't move. Don't talk. Sip. That's what helps be become a human for the rest of the day. Gym time happens later. You might guess the real "Exercise of The Week" by the title, but in case it escaped you, I discuss stationary rowing.The recipe? Yeah, you're gonna have to listen to find that out. Some people may get a hint from my Instagram feed, _moprimal , but the rest will need to pan through the podcast to find out this delicious tidbit.Thank you so much for being here. It means the world to me.Cheers,Morley

After some down time, and a bit of reflection, the Mo Primal Podcast is taking a little bit of a different direction. Check it out, and let me know what you think. Do you like where it's heading?

Are you taking supplements? Did you know that you may be throwing money away that could be better used by just buying real, healthy food?Surely, there are several companies out there that are actually producing quality supplements and vitamins, but it has been brought to light that there are actually some big name brands that are holding out. So much in fact, that they’ve been ordered to stop producing and selling some of their products!Without strict regulations in place, it is seemingly easy for someone to suffer from taking herbal supplements. This can happen through allergies. Imagine having an allergic reaction to something and you can’t narrow it down, because of the lack of information provided. How do you combat something like that?Check it out as I break down a few samples of deceit in Episode Ten of the Mo Primal Podcast

I get into the little "sciency" bit of what a carbohydrate is, as well as a closer look from a dietary standpoint. And, as is what seems to be becoming a theme, a little update of Mo Primal At Home.

A bit of an update with what is going on around the home that is becoming a homestead. Then on to the main topic of the podcast, Dietary Fat. A brief look into Saturated, Polyunsaturated, Monounsaturated, and Trans Fats.

When it comes to looking after yourself, it's important to know what you're putting into your body. Now that I have the space, at home, I am turning to gardening. Growing my own vegetables should be a no-brainer, but that doesn't mean that there isn't a lot to learn. This is exciting!

Things can happen "out of the blue". What happened, that caused everything in my life to pause?It's been three weeks since the last episode. Where did I go? Did I give up already? Hardly. Have you ever had something happen that caused you to "pump the brakes" on life? Leave a comment, and tell us about it.

Here's a bit of a look into the One Meal A Day diet (OMAD). Are there perks to it, or is it just a ruined intermittent fast?

In this episode, you'll get a sweet highlight, as to what's happening in the world of Mo Primal. After that, we dive into a sticky topic. Artificial sweeteners; more specifically, sucralose. What is it? Where did it come from? And, are there any risks in using it, instead of table sugar?

It's all over the news lately. It seems that coconut oil is not good for you. What we've been told about all of it's benefits have been nothing more than a lie. Were we really that foolish to think that one thing could possibly have so many beneficial uses? Were we really that gullible? No? I don't think so either. It's just Big Food putting their mouth where their money is.
