Hey everyone, Vancouver Radio, how on earth are you doing, good morning, good day, good evening,

good whatever you are having or doing, I hope it is good.

So today I wanted to take a moment to talk about the things that we believe in and whether they are positively or negatively impacting the way that we live our lives.

The reason why I bring this up is there's a lot of things that we, deep down, might

believe as a result of the environment that we've been brought up in, the things that we've been told is kids, the things that industries have told us over time to be true and we just sort of take them as gospel or we don't necessarily take them as gospel but they feel more

true than the alternative and I suppose I can use an example of when I was younger and I got into nutrition. The big belief system around

nutrition is that carbs stimulated insulin, insulin made you fat and thus we shouldn't stimulate carbs. And because so many people were

talking about it, everyone just believed it. Everyone sort of ignored the wider facts and all the other reasons why that

wasn't true and I didn't really see enough people question it. I didn't really

see enough counter arguments and I just thought,

you know what, it must be true and I just joined the bandwagon and I said those things that

wasn't really it kind of led me down a path that wasn't really just because it wasn't

because it wasn't scientific. I don't really kind of want to make myself feel bad

any more than I do because I could quite easily sit here and go what an idiot you

know because at the time I was a nutritionist I was telling other people this stuff I was saying

you know you shouldn't eat or that many carbs or they should be timed and you know there's a

certain volume we should maybe look at it could be bad and the reality is I was talking

out my fucking ass but the problem is so many people were saying it it kind of felt

like it was true so I just sort of joined in and the thing is you tend to go down the

rabbit hole if there's not many other counter convincing arguments you just go

down the rabbit hole and you research that even more and it intensifies and it just

creates a belief system that you don't even start to question anymore. So I just wanted to bring this up because there might be things in your life that you believe that are not actually true.
