LIVE EVENT: The Hunger Code, Hormones & The Real Reason You Can't Lose Weight with Dr. Allana Polo, ND

LIVE EVENT: The Hunger Code, Hormones & The Real Reason You Can't Lose Weight with Dr. Allana Polo, ND This one is special. This episode was recorded live — in a room of 45 women at Seymour Golf & Country Club in North Vancouver — and the energy in it is unlike anything we've done before. Dr. Allana Polo, ND is a naturopathic physician, founder of Polo Health & Longevity Centre in New Westminster, BC, and author of The Hunger Code. She has been in practice for over 15 years with a deep focus on women's health, weight loss, hormones, and menopause. In this conversation we go deep on why the diet roller coaster keeps spinning — and what it actually takes to get off it for good. In this episode we cover: The origin of The Hunger Code and why Dr. Polo has been thinking about this her entire life The six hungers — healthy hunger and the five unhealthy hungers — and how to identify which one is running the show for you Head hunger, heart hunger, habit hunger, hormone hunger, and hypersensitivity hunger — broken down in plain language Why perimenopause changes everything about how your body processes food, weight, and cravings The role of estrogen, progesterone, cortisol, insulin, and thyroid in weight gain that has nothing to do with what you're eating Why "calories in, calories out" is only one tiny piece of a much bigger picture The emotional and mental roots of disordered eating — and why the first three chapters of the book go there first How to start listening to your body again when social media and diet culture have completely drowned out your internal signals What a real support team looks like for women navigating this season of life — and why you cannot do it alone The one question every woman in perimenopause should be asking her doctor.
