He is fascinated by interactions between the environment, mind, food, and the human body, and uses science-informed approaches whilst adjusting recommendations to the individual’s unique requirements and situation. In this episode Andrew shares:-      The study that connected nutrition to mental health-      The surprising number of vegetables we should be eating and how to not be overwhelmed by that number-      The reason he thinks eating fruit is not a bad thing for most people-      The reason why he thinks meal replacement shakes should not be the first approach for most peopleKey Quotes “The strain on the health system from nutrition is not because people are eating too much fruit...For most people it’s very hard to over do.” “Rather than feeling overwhelmed (by the number of veggies you need to eat), just wonder, how many you are already eating.”“Two sessions on the track isn’t going to win you a gold medal, but every session you do adds up. Everything we do is just a series of small actions.”For more information about AndrewYou can find out more about Hally and book in with him via his website: https://andrewhalldietitian.com/Or you can follow him on social media: @andrew_hall_dietitianYou can get involved with the podcast onlineOn facebook in our community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/challengesthatchangeusOr on Instagram: @challengesthatchangeus If you want to find out more about what Ali does, check out her business via the website:http://www.trialtitudeperformance.com.auFor her other business you can find it through the websites:www.altitudefitnessarmidale.com.auOr you can follow them on Instagram:@Altitudefitnessarmidale@trialtitudeperformance Hosted on Acast.
