Summary
Davinia Taylor returns to the podcast to talk about her new book It's Not A Diet and how biohacking, listening to her body, working with it, rather than against, and paying close attention to what she was feeding it has been instrumental in her feeling better now, aged 43, than she did 20 years ago.
In this episode, we discuss:
- Why she was so passionate about putting pen to paper.
- How her own experiences have convinced her more people should try this out.
- Why obesity is a very slow death.
- Why no one should be judged for being overweight because there are often a multitude of factors at play.
- Why we should be thinking about more about how food makes us feel after we eat it than when we’re eating it.
- Why living her healthier life doesn’t cost money and actually just requires some fairly small changes.
- How much of an effort it is to not like yourself and why it’s a constant battle that no one else knows you’re fighting.
- Why processed food are so bad for us - and not just for the reasons you may already know.
- The role of hormones in how we feel and the lifestyle changes we can implement that can help.
- Why exercising doesn’t have to mean being a gym bunny or go hell for leather and so much more…
Davinia's book It's Not a Diet is available now.
