Summary

It’s no secret that childbirth is tough, but the reality of what follows is rarely discussed. While no two birth stories are the same, I want to use my story, which is far from what I could have ever imagined to share exactly what happens, empower others with the truth and to encourage opening up around this conversation. In the absence of any education about the process and knowledge, all too many women just aren’t capable of making informed decisions, or even trusting their own bodies, especially when so many things can change and are out of your control. This week’s Food For Thought is a highly personal one, where I explore my own birth story with midwife and author Marie Louise, also know as The Modern Midwife. Please note, this episode contains some graphic childbirth references. For more information, visit Rhitrition.com and Instagram.com/Rhitrition. Here are some additional resources that you may also find helpful; NHS, Tommy's and The Modern Midwife

And this is something we talk about with our clients all the time in the clinic.

0:29.8

And that means that both twins could eat a sugary muffin and you know,

0:33.6

they would have a complete different response, which is fascinating.

0:36.2

And one could feel great and the other could feel that slump and the increased hunger due to

0:41.2

their different blood sugar responses. So, here we go.

0:44.5

Zoe's research found that the change in blood sugar and blood fat levels

0:48.8

can vary 10 fold from person to person. Then on top of that, identical twins only share a quarter

0:54.8

of their gut bugs, despite being genetically identical. So, basically, we're all different,

1:00.1

which is what we talk about all the time in the podcast, we're unique in how we respond to food

1:04.0

and how we process what we eat. This solidifies what we've always believed.
