All Macro's Matter - Episode 18

 In this episode titled "ALL Macro's Matter," Trevor and Shelby delve into the importance of a balanced approach to nutrition, debunking the myths around fad diets.

Joined by co-host Shelby, they discuss the pitfalls of extreme dieting measures and share examples of clients who have struggled with approaches like keto or carnivore diets. Emphasizing the need for a balanced approach, they highlight the significance of all three macronutrients—protein, fats, and carbohydrates.

Protein takes center stage as they discuss its role in muscle maintenance, growth, and overall physiological functions. The essential amino acids found in protein are described as the building blocks of bodily tissues, impacting everything from muscle synthesis to hormonal balance.

Transitioning to fats, Trevor and Shelby dispel fears around dietary fats and stress their importance in energy sourcing, nutrient absorption, and overall cell function. Essential fatty acids are highlighted as crucial components for cell membranes and hormone production, contributing to overall well-being.

The podcast then explores the body's preferred source of energy—carbohydrates. While not considered essential, carbohydrates are crucial in providing glucose for physiological processes and fueling daily activities. The hosts emphasize the importance of using carbohydrates strategically, discussing their impact on energy levels, brain function, and overall cognitive performance.

The conversation touches on the role of dietary fiber in gut health and the digestive system, with Trevor and Shelby recommending a personalized approach to fiber intake based on individual needs. The hosts caution against falling for fad diets that promise quick results without considering long-term sustainability and overall health.

In conclusion, Trevor stresses the importance of a balanced approach to nutrition, tracking all macronutrients, and making adjustments as needed. Both hosts share their Instagram handles for further engagement and invite listeners to apply for coaching on the Strategic Aesthetics website.
