In this episode of Rush to Reason, John Rush tackles one of the most debated topics in health and fitness today: the relationship between exercise and weight loss. Joined by Shanice D. Ireland, a health enthusiast with an eye for efficiency, the duo dives into why exercise alone might not be the panacea many believe it to be. With insights from major studies and personal experiences, they unravel myths and misconceptions about metabolism while offering practical advice for maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
SPEAKER 03 :
This is Rush to Reason.
SPEAKER 17 :
You are going to shut your damn yapper and listen for a change because I got you pegged, sweetheart. You want to take the easy way out because you’re scared. And you’re scared because if you try and fail, there’s only you to blame. Let me break this down for you. Life is scary. Get used to it. There are no magical fixes.
SPEAKER 03 :
With your host, John Rush.
SPEAKER 09 :
My advice to you is to do what your parents did. Get a job done. You haven’t made everybody equal. You’ve made them the same and there’s a big difference.
SPEAKER 12 :
Let me tell you why you’re here. You’re here because you know something. What you know you can’t explain, but you feel it. You’ve felt it your entire life. That there’s something wrong with the world. You don’t know what it is, but it’s there. It is this feeling that has brought you to me.
SPEAKER 17 :
Are you crazy? Am I? Or am I so sane that you just blew your mind?
SPEAKER 10 :
It’s Rush to Reason with your host, John Rush. Presented by Cub Creek Heating and Air Conditioning.
SPEAKER 07 :
I’m Hans. And I am Franz. And we just want to pop your ass.
SPEAKER 03 :
Welcome to Health and Wellness Wednesdays on Rush to Reason. Fat, drunk, and stupid is no way to go through life, sir.
SPEAKER 18 :
I have what doctors call a little bit of a weight problem. I used to grab bear claws as a kid, two at a time, and I’d get them lodged right in this region here.
SPEAKER 04 :
Exercise gives you endorphins. Endorphins make you happy. Happy people just don’t shoot their husbands.
SPEAKER 01 :
Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It’s a very mean and nasty place, and I don’t care how tough you are, it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. But it ain’t about how hard you hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward.
SPEAKER 03 :
I’m sorry that I’m fat.
SPEAKER 16 :
All right. Health and Wellness Wednesday. Welcome. Rush to Reason. Denver’s Afternoon Rush. KLZ 560. It is that hour where, yes, we talk health and wellness. And A little colder out today and heading down the stretch into the holidays. We’re going to talk a little bit about that here in a few minutes with Dr. Julie Gatza. But question of the day yesterday, which beverage company once claimed in court that its drink was so acidic it would dissolve a mouse in 30 days after a man alleged that he had found one in his can? The answer is Mountain Dew. Made by Pepsi. And I don’t drink it. Never have been a big Mountain Dew guy. Maybe when I was younger, drank a little bit of it. I don’t know. And some people love it. In fact, there’s probably some that are addicted to it. That’s never been my favorite drink. So everybody has their favorites, especially when it comes to sodas and things like that. Not, as you guys can probably imagine, not a big soda drinker, period. Just haven’t been now for about 15 years. Was prior to that. I won’t be the first to tell you that prior to that, yep, drank a lot. in the past 15 years. Today’s a possible question. According to a 2013 study, what common habit has been shown to boost concentration? According to a 2013 study, what common habit has been shown to boost concentration? Some of you are going to be shocked when I give you the answer tomorrow because I wouldn’t have guessed this. Now, I am one that does this, but I had no idea that it was a help when it came to boosting concentration. So, All right. First off today, metabolism myths. And this is – it may shock some, may not shock others. And this is something that we talk a lot about on the program. And I’ve kind of gone down this path before, maybe not quite as directly as this particular article is going to talk about. BBC Science Focus magazine, there’s an article out. I picked this up a couple of weeks ago. The single most important lesson about losing weight. And surprisingly enough, and I’ve talked about this, it’s not exercise. In fact, I will say straight up that I think there’s a huge misconception, and I’ve seen it happen with individuals where, you know, I’m going to shed some few pounds. So they make a New Year’s resolution. I’m going to shed some few pounds. I’m going to buy a weight machine or I’m going to get a rolling machine or I’m going to buy a treadmill or I’ll go to the gym or whatever the case may be. I’m going to exercise, and that’s going to take the weight off. And actually, it doesn’t. If you don’t make other lifestyle changes outside of exercise, you might actually gain weight, not lose weight. I’ve seen it happen. And I’m not a personal trainer or anything along those lines, but I’ve had my own personal journeys when it comes to weight loss, as you all know. So I do have some background in this. And I will tell you that if you want to lose weight, exercise is not the way. Now, should we exercise? Absolutely. And I’ll get into some of that in this article here in a few minutes. But this is a study, by the way, major new study, 4,200 people across 34 different countries. Researchers found that people who exercise more… Don’t burn more calories than those who sit around all day long. It’s minimal, by the way. And anybody that’s done any kind of tracking on exercise, whether it be you’re walking, hiking, jogging, you’re working out in the gym, whatever, when it’s all said and done, you may have only burned 300, 400 more calories that day than you would have otherwise. It’s not as surprising as people – it’s not as much as people think. It’s surprising that it’s as low as it is to most people. Now, my fear with a lot of people that do go out and exercise, and again, I’ve seen this, is they exercise and because they exercised, mentally they think, oh, I’m way ahead of the next guy. I can go have an ice cream cone or I can have that candy bar or I can have that piece of chocolate cake or I can have fill in the blank. And a lot do that. Oh, I can have a donut tomorrow morning. I exercise, you know, tonight. Or I went to the gym this morning. I’ll stop on my way home and have one of those big old huge frappuccinos that’s like 2,000 calories. And I’ve seen gym people do this, by the way. You can see them in their outfits and they’re in the line for whatever. And it’s like, yeah, you know, it doesn’t work that way. Now, some people have really fast metabolisms. They can eat that stuff all day long, whatever. And by the way, I’m not judging. No judgment on my part at all. You do you. I could care less. But my point is, mentally, I think a lot of people that exercise end up eating more than they would otherwise and then wonder, why am I not losing weight? I’m doing all this extra work, but the pounds aren’t coming off. And by the way, I’ve been there, done that. I am one of these people that I’m talking about. I’ve done that. work extra hard, do all sorts of extra work, work really hard in the gym, or you do this or do that, or you just think, man, the weight’s just going to fall off. No, it doesn’t. Because your body is still working off of a particular count of calories that it’s required to live off of. And honestly, folks, it’s as simple as this. It’s math. Whatever your standing, you know, cleric intake needs to be to maintain weight, whatever that is, go below that and you’ll take off pounds. It’s that simple. Go above that, you’re liable to pick up some pounds. Now, I understand, and we’ll talk to Dr. Julie here in the bottom of the hour, 3.30, and yes, there are certain foods and things that we do that can definitely help us when it comes to staying healthy and helping with our gut health and helping with our overall metabolism and so on and so forth. And yes, it’s not a one-size-fits-all either. There’s lots of things, I think, that come into play with each individual, and you have to find where your sort of level is. It’s probably the best way for me to say that. And no, it’s not the same for everybody. Some people eat things and be just fine. Other people can’t eat that. And if they even look at it, they pick up weight. Some, by the way, can eat anything they want to. For example, I’m one of those individuals whereby if I have bread of any kind, I’m going to pick up weight. It is what it is. And it’s just something that I know about me and my body, and I’m sure there’s others out there listening that are very much the same way, and that’s me. So I cannot have bread. If I do, I’m going to pick up weight. There’s a lot of research out of late, and this isn’t my subject today, but I may get to this in the future, whereby our bread is way different today than it ever has been. It’s not the same. And there’s lots of studies going on along those lines explaining that it’s not the same as it used to be. So that’s one of those things where you really need to understand all of that on the front side before actually going down that path. But again, bottom line of this particular study is A lot of extra exercise is not going to actually take off weight. And Shanice is going to be joining us here in just one moment. So we’ll talk about a few things heading into the holidays with her. So don’t go anywhere. We’re going to come right back. And Shanice Ireland, I should have given her last name. I apologize.

SPEAKER 03 :
Listen online, klzradio.com. Back to Rush to Reason.
SPEAKER 16 :
And we’re back, Rush to Reason, Debra’s Afternoon Rush, KLZ 560, Health and Wellness Wednesday. Shanice D. Ireland joining us now. Shanice D., how are you today?
SPEAKER 07 :
I’m doing great. How are you doing today, John?
SPEAKER 16 :
We’re doing very well. It’s always a joy to see you. My wife and I both, we watch your Instagrams and follow you around, and it’s like, holy crap, how do you get all this stuff done at the end of the day? I’m being dead serious. I don’t know how you get everything done.
SPEAKER 08 :
You know, I’m not going to lie. Today, there were some tears shed. I was, like, a little overwhelmed, especially with trick-or-treat and Halloween and all this stuff, you know. And it’s okay. Sometimes it’s just okay to step back and be like, okay, there’s too much on my plate. I’m going to take a breather, you know, unload some of this stuff and just try to enjoy the holidays. The holiday season can really be stressful and overwhelming. Yes, it can. You know, now, honestly, John, it’s a really good time. I know people might think this is crazy, but go ahead and start preparing even for Thanksgiving. Right after Halloween, I am so ready to take down the decorations of Halloween. I’m done with it.
SPEAKER 07 :
You’re over it.
SPEAKER 08 :
I’m ready to dive. I’m over it. I’m ready to dive into Thanksgiving. Yeah. Honestly, there are some things that you can do now. There are some things that you can even make up into a month ahead of time, believe it or not, for your Thanksgiving dinner.
SPEAKER 16 :
Okay. So really quick. So you’re really busy. You’ve got all this stuff going on. You’re going crazy. And then you’ve got this goofy radio guy that’s always asking to come on air. So it’s almost like, oh, jeez. Yeah, one more thing to actually add to your plate. But thank you for taking time to be with us, Shanna. See, I look forward to it. I’m glad you’re here. And maybe this will just be a little bit of a respite from the day. Let’s just say it that way.
SPEAKER 07 :
It is. It’s so nice to talk to an adult and not one of my five kids. Thank you.
SPEAKER 16 :
Thank you.
SPEAKER 07 :
We do.
SPEAKER 16 :
We do, and so do all of our listeners. All right, so you’re prepping for the holidays. You can do this several weeks in advance. So give us some thoughts on things you could actually prep. Because, by the way, great idea. And I am one of those that if I can do, and my wife knows this, if I can work ahead on anything, I do my best to do so because it just makes things easier when you actually get there. So I do my best to manage things well and work ahead when I can because it just seems to take some of that stress off down the road when you know it’s already going to be stressful.
SPEAKER 08 :
Absolutely. Several weeks ahead of time, you can go ahead. If you’re going to make the homemade pie crust, you can make that dough, flatten it into discs, freeze it. Go ahead and put that in the freezer. You don’t have to worry about it. You can even make the casseroles ahead of time. You could assemble them without baking them, wrap them tightly, and freeze those. That’s the sweet potato casserole, the green bean casserole. When you decide to finally bake them, of course, you want to take them out, thaw them the day before, and then you’re going to bake them, of course, the day of Thanksgiving. You can even make the cranberry sauce. In fact, it tastes even better beforehand. So making that at least a week beforehand is going to taste better. So those are some things you could do several weeks ahead of time. Now, of course, there’s other things that you need to just do. five to seven days before Thanksgiving. That’s going to be like the stuffing, you know, the gravy base, salads, that kind of stuff, the, you know, the dressings, the marinades, those are the things you need to wait closer to Thanksgiving. But preparing that menu, you know, grocery shopping, some of the things, the perishables, the things that you know, you know, the pumpkin pie, the canned goods, all of that kind of stuff. You can go ahead and do that ahead of time, and then those are some things you can check off your list, and you don’t have to worry about when you’re going to be hosting your Thanksgiving.
SPEAKER 16 :
I know one thing that my wife does, and to her credit, very, very good at this as well, is not so much even on the food side, but what about all of the other people normally set a table, and there’s claws and silverware and all this other settings and so on that go with it. Aren’t those things you can work ahead with as well?
SPEAKER 08 :
One hundred percent. You can go ahead and pull all that stuff out or take inventory of that stuff if there’s stuff that you need to purchase. A lot of this stuff’s on sale right now currently because it isn’t quite Thanksgiving time yet. And then also, John, I want to make a really good point. Don’t stress about all of the nice cloths and linens. It’s okay to have disposable pie tins and, you know, just going with store-bought items, too. Don’t make it super stressful on yourself or your host. It’s okay to kind of make things a little bit easier on yourself. So if you need to buy some things at store-bought or maybe a couple of things are going to be disposable, that’s okay too.
SPEAKER 16 :
Okay, what about a menu? In other words, you talked about a moment ago, you know, working ahead, kind of even picking out what you’re going to do that day. I’m assuming those are things you can also work on on the front side and in a way start kind of checking off that, okay, I do have these things. These are things I’m going to have to get at that time because they are perishable and so on. So I’m assuming just making a list even now is, I know it sounds like it’s a long way away, but Shanisty, it’s not. So could you start on some of that as well?
SPEAKER 08 :
Oh, for sure. And if you are going to somebody’s house, ask them. Be very blunt and honest. Say, what can I bring? I will not take no for an answer. And if they say no, say, okay, well, this is what I’m bringing. And if they say, oh, that sounds great, then there you go. It can be as simple as an appetizer. It could be a side dish. It could be one of the casseroles. It could even be dinner rolls. or just a drink or something like that. Planning that menu ahead of time, deciding are you going to do a whole turkey? Are you just going to do a turkey breast? A lot of people don’t like the dark meat.
SPEAKER 07 :
True.
SPEAKER 08 :
So decide something like that. Are you going to do mashed potatoes? Are you going to do a baked potato? Are you going to do stuffing, store-bought, or are you going to make it homemade, the gravy, sweet potatoes? All of that stuff, you can go ahead and sit down and decide that menu and trying to purchase some of those things now before they fly off the shelf because we all know.
SPEAKER 16 :
Great point.
SPEAKER 08 :
A couple weeks ahead of time, it’s gone.
SPEAKER 16 :
No, great point, great point. And this is something else that most people don’t realize, Shanisty, is even the turkey itself. Now, for a lot of you listening, you probably already know this, but there’s very few unfrozen fresh turkeys in America. And I learned a lot about this several years ago. Most people think that, oh, that seems really fresh. It actually probably was frozen at one point. Here’s my point with that, Shanisty. Nothing wrong with buying a frozen one, sticking it in the freezer, and letting it thaw out a week or so in advance, which it takes several days to thaw out anyways. Reality is they’re all that way anyways.
SPEAKER 08 :
Absolutely. And, you know, you need to allow at least 24 hours at minimum. You know, it’s 24 hours per five pound turkey is kind of the standard. And you really you want to be careful with turkey. You want to get online and read all the safety measures. And I mean, it sounds silly, but.
SPEAKER 16 :
No, you’re right.
SPEAKER 08 :
That’s right. That’s right. Absolutely.
SPEAKER 03 :
Absolutely.
SPEAKER 08 :
That’s right. No, 100%. And again, my point, folks, is a lot of times you think, well, I need that fresh that week because that’s just what I’ve always done.
SPEAKER 16 :
Maybe you’ve always just done it that way because somebody else generationally before you did it that way. But really, at the end of the day, is it really to your advantage where I’m going with the Shanice? In other words, think ahead. And what things do I really have to get that week versus things I could get now, for example?
SPEAKER 08 :
100%. Yeah, you really need to. And that all goes to sitting down and making that list and being prepared ahead of time and figuring out who’s all coming to your Thanksgiving or where you’re headed and asking people and trying to figure it all out because nobody wants to be grocery shopping the week of or a couple days beforehand because it’s chaos.
SPEAKER 16 :
Absolutely. All right. Talk to us about small batch pork rinds. That, of course, comes from a great company that we’ve talked about many, many times. You know, the Southern Recipe guys, which we love. We’ve talked about them many, many times in the past. Now, not only how we can incorporate some of these into maybe that particular meal, but talk about even, you know, we’ve got all sorts of things that will be happening prior to the meal. Kids start to get off of school and they’re already running around and there’s lots of things happening. And They need this and they need that. Anything we can do to kind of settle the troops, if you would, Channisty, helps. And I’m assuming some of this would tie into that.
SPEAKER 08 :
Yeah, for sure. Southern Recipe small batch pork rinds. I know I’ve talked to you about this brand before. I absolutely love it. It’s a high protein brand, low carb. It’s a wonderful snack filled with collagen as well. They have unique, bold flavors. They have the hot honey flavor, spicy dill. What I love about the pork rinds is it’s great just as a normal snack paired with just a dip. or just to throw in a lunchbox or have as an after-school snack, but also you can incorporate it in different recipes. You could use it even as to crush up and put around your asparagus for your Thanksgiving meal, or you could even toss it into your stuffing recipe to have an extra added bonus of protein. There’s just a variety of different ways that you can have the pork rinds added in there, and it just kind of boosts the health benefits to your meal just slightly.
SPEAKER 16 :
Okay. And again, for a lot of you listening, we’re all trying to figure out ways to, you know, we want to feed our family as healthy as we can, Shanice T. Sometimes that gets really difficult. There’s a lot going on. These are some of the little tips and tricks that can help you do that, especially to your point earlier, Shanice T., And I hate to say it this way because, you know, we want the holidays to be enjoyable. We want them to be fun. You want it to be a time of gathering and getting together and so on. But it never fails. They become super hectic.
SPEAKER 08 :
They do become hectic. And you know what? Before we know it, it’s over and it’s January and we’re like, where did the time go? So that, and I know we hear this every year, but take the time, you know, do the things that your kids want you to do or your grandkids want you to do or your neighbor.
SPEAKER 07 :
Right.
SPEAKER 08 :
You know, take a deep breath and just try to enjoy it as much as possible.
SPEAKER 16 :
Very hard to do very good words from your part on that, though, because it is really important. And I’m going to have to look in the mirror and tell myself the very same thing because I, you know me, I stay very busy all of the time. But speaking of you, and I talked about earlier how we follow you and we watch a lot of the things that you guys do. How do folks do that? How do they follow you and watch and do the things that my wife and I do on a routine basis?
SPEAKER 08 :
Yeah, you can head over to Instagram. It’s just at Shanice D. Ireland. I’m also on TikTok, YouTube, Facebook, and I have a blog, She’s Becoming Domestic.com. I love Thanksgiving. I’m going to have a ton of recipes that’s going to be going up on the blog in the next couple of weeks.
SPEAKER 16 :
All right, we hope to have you back, even if not before Thanksgiving. We’ll definitely get you back on before Christmas. November’s super busy for myself included with just the show and everything we’ve got going on here. But, Shanice T., if I don’t talk to you before Thanksgiving, have a great Thanksgiving. We will talk to you before Christmas, I assure you.
SPEAKER 07 :
Okay. Thank you so much, John.
SPEAKER 16 :
All right. Appreciate you. Have a great rest of your day. Great lady, by the way. And I’m serious about my wife actually follows her more than I do. And there’s times where my wife will say, did you see what she was doing in this particular video? And I’m like, yeah, no, I must have missed that one. And it’s just she has a crazy life, lots of kids, lots going on. And kind of reminds me of when I was raising kids and probably why I can relate so much to what she’s got going on on a routine basis. But great lady. And again, as she was saying, she’s got a lot of great recipes and things like that for the holidays. So if you’re looking for some help in those areas, follow her for sure. Shanisty.

SPEAKER 03 :
This isn’t rage radio. This is real, relatable radio. Back to Rush to Reason.
SPEAKER 16 :
And we are back, Rush to Reason, Denver’s Afternoon Rush, KLZ 560, our Health and Wellness Wednesday segment. Dr. Julie Gatz is joining us now. Dr. Julie, welcome back. How are you?
SPEAKER 06 :
I’m good. Thanks. Yourself?
SPEAKER 16 :
Very good. I know it’s only been a couple of weeks since we had you, but I’ve got so many things going on from now till Thanksgiving. I didn’t think we’d have an opportunity to talk again. So I’ve got you here today, which I appreciate. And talk to us about that. We’ve got fall. It’s coming up. We’ve, of course, got Thanksgiving coming up. There’s Halloween right now that’s just in a couple of days away. It’s that time of the year to where, I guess in my notes, it even says seasonal digestive distress. Yes, it’s coming.
SPEAKER 06 :
it is coming and you know it does start the downward word slide right about Halloween and And then it doesn’t really stop until maybe February.
SPEAKER 16 :
Correct. Unfortunately, no, unfortunately you’re very much, because we all think, oh, you know, I’ll just, you know, even those that are trying to eat better or diet or make a life change better, oh, I’ll wait until Thanksgiving’s over. Well, then it’s Christmas and we’ve got parties in between and all that. Well, I’ll just wait until Christmas is over. Well, then it’s the New Year’s and then it’s the Super Bowl early February. And to your point, Dr. Julie, it just continues. It doesn’t stop.
SPEAKER 06 :
It really does just continue. It’s a little nutty. You know, one of the things that I can advise people to do at this time of the year is – and I know I’ve mentioned this many times, but don’t skip breakfast. When you skip breakfast, you are going to be hungrier later at night. This is where you want to have the Halloween candy, the more pie, whatever it may be, Christmas cookies. So eat breakfast, have protein, start with two big glasses of water and – Then have your breakfast and eat protein throughout the day. You’d be amazed what a hard-boiled egg will do for you as compared to grabbing a handful of pretzels. We don’t want to overwhelm the digestion. We’re going to be eating more carbs and treats and sweets and things like that. If you’re feeling gassy, bloated, indigestion, heartburn, acid reflux, any of those, constipated, diarrhea, all those simply mean is what you’re eating, you’re not breaking down. So you do want to Be mindful of what you’re putting in and then taking some good digestive enzymes so that you can help to get some of the gunk out of the body.
SPEAKER 16 :
Okay, and we’ll talk about those things here in a moment because I’m, as you know, a big believer in those already outside of even all the things that we’re talking about. Let’s talk about Halloween here first just because it’s coming up in a couple of days, and I get it. Everybody’s going to sneak a little something, you know, whether they’re actually giving out candy to trick-or-treaters or they’ve got kids that are trick-or-treating or grandkids that are or whatever the case may be. Something will most likely end up getting snuck in, you know, and again – You do you, Dr. Julie, is my motto. I’m not going to get after anybody for doing so. But I guess, is there any tips on if you’re going to sneak something out of the kid’s basket, what should or shouldn’t it be?
SPEAKER 06 :
Hmm. I don’t really have a great answer.
SPEAKER 16 :
Because most of what’s in there isn’t really fit to eat, probably, right?
SPEAKER 06 :
Yeah, you know, I mean, there’s nothing healthy in there. There’s nothing that’s nutritious. So I suppose if you’re going to do it, you know, you can’t really think with nutrition, it’s mostly quantity. So great, you know, enjoy a Reese’s, have it, you know, maybe put one in the freezer and then get that stuff out of the house. You know, I don’t know what you do with your kids. Some kids, some parents pay their, you know, kids money for, their Halloween candy. So I’ve heard of all different sorts of things.
SPEAKER 16 :
Well, you know, and for some of you, and I know maybe this is what, you know, we tend to do. In fact, I was supposed to bring a bag with me today down here, and I didn’t. You know, all the leftover candy, things like that, and we don’t have trick-or-treaters, so this just happens to be stuff that we had gotten for others that ended up with some extra batches of and so on. So in my case, Dr. Julie, it comes down here to the office and I drop it off, and I’m probably the enemy of everybody here for doing so.
SPEAKER 06 :
You’re not doing anyone any favors over there.
SPEAKER 16 :
Talk about Health and Wellness Wednesday while they’re bringing a sack of candy.
SPEAKER 06 :
Exactly. I mean, I always went and when I was handing out candy, we got, you know, the Weiler’s or, you know, the Gumi, the Gumi Chews, the healthy ones. I just thought, you know what? These parents need a break. These kids need a break. So. I ended up being sometimes the healthy person that handed out that sort of stuff.
SPEAKER 16 :
Gotcha. All right. So, again, folks, again, you do you. That is not something that I’m going to get on anybody about, Dr. Julie. But here’s what I do know. Some of you know the things that you’re more, how should I say, Dr. Julie, sensitive to versus others. Okay, use common sense. You know what those things are. Avoid the ones that you’re really sensitive to.
SPEAKER 06 :
Yeah, I mean, if you know you really have a problem with chocolate, then eat something other than chocolate. Right. You know, a lot of people know that they have dairy sensitivities. So, you know, do anything you can then to get the dairy out of your diet and enjoy the other things that are coming across the plate. So, you know, it’s really smart to not skip meals. When you’re going to a party, don’t wait all day to wait to eat at the party. You want to eat like a normal person, not like, you know, a cannibal that’s just, you know, been starved all day because you’re going to make bad choices and feel lousy within an hour.
SPEAKER 16 :
Okay. And that was going to be my next topic because it is also becoming that time of year where, you know, Christmas parties anymore start almost right after Thanksgiving. I mean, because the season is so short in between, as you know, Dr. Julie, you know, companies, and I know for us, you know, here. at KLZ. Ours is already planned, has been planned now for quite some time. You know, those things get on the books pretty quickly. So you’re going to be going to a lot of these different events for most people. I mean, not everybody goes to events, Dr. Julie, but I think most will hit at least probably one or two a season, plus their own family gatherings. And yeah, you know, it just, it can be a lot. It can be overwhelming, I guess you could say, especially when it comes to your, you know, your health.
SPEAKER 06 :
Yeah, I agree. And you know, people stop drinking as much water, the summer’s over. So They go dehydrated, then they go and drink alcohol and, you know, eat rich foods. And it’s just it can be a bit of a disaster. So, you know, go fed. Make sure you’re drinking water throughout the day. You know, get some 20 minutes of walking in. It just it’ll keep everything in motion. It’ll keep the lymphatic system moving. And it will make a need for good nutrition and at least get some of the sluggishness out of the system.
SPEAKER 16 :
Okay. When you talk about, again, these parties and different things and, you know, we’re attending and we’re doing our best to, you know, eat the correct things and so on. And in my notes here it even talks about being a food detective. And I get it. Every party you’re not going to know exactly where every food comes from. But in general, I mean, let’s face it, you can pretty much tell where certain things are, what they’re covered in. It’s not that difficult, but we tend to just sort of put blinders on, fill the plate, and leave and eat.
SPEAKER 06 :
I know. It’s true. And, you know, the amount of food that goes in, your digestion is like, whoa, what is going on? This is rich. This is salty. This is sugary. Right. So, you know, maybe you want to start off with, If they’re having a meal of sorts, eat the protein. Just fill your body with some protein first. And if it’s just vegetables and it’s not a meal, okay, go to the vegetable tray and just start grazing a little bit. Set the tone where you’re just not putting in the heavy stuff right from the get-go. And, you know, keep yourself filled up a little bit, and then you can try the treats. But, you know, don’t pile the plate because you’re starving.
SPEAKER 16 :
And I know, you know, even for myself, you know, you’re going down the smorgasbord and depending upon what the event is, you know, maybe it’s a, you know, barbecue event, Dr. Julie, which we all know barbecue sauce and what it’s full of and so on. And again, this is no judgment. I just know how these things work. And yet there might be some choosings there where it’s like, OK, wait a minute, that that. You know, that brisket that I can have the inside of where it doesn’t have all of the extra stuff coating. And by the way, I don’t have to add a lot of barbecue sauce, and I know I’m making some people mad because that’s what makes brisket so good at the end of the day. But my point is you can do some of these things that may, if you do it all the way it’s supposed to be, yeah, not super healthy, but you can make it more healthy by adjusting what you’re doing, right? Yeah.
SPEAKER 06 :
That is so true. The chicken that has the cream sauce on it, you don’t need all the cream sauce. Same thing with the salmon that might be covered in something. It’s perfectly fine with just a little bit of that flavor, but you don’t need to eat every portion of it. I would say one of the major things that people can try to do is just try to avoid the bread items.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yeah, and that’s my biggest nemesis, so I just have to like, okay, yeah, and as much as I love it, for me personally, I was just talking about it even before you coming on air, that’s the one thing for me where, and I love it, I am a bread guy through and through, and I just have to be disciplined and not do it.
SPEAKER 06 :
Yeah, me too. I mean, if I could live on an island and all they served was bread, I would be happy.
SPEAKER 16 :
You and me both. I’d be fine.
SPEAKER 06 :
Yeah, I’d have no issues whatsoever.
SPEAKER 16 :
But for me, number one, it’s a weight gainer for me, and it also makes me not feel well when I eat it. And I get it, and we can get into all of the, you know, bread isn’t what it used to be and so on. Yeah, I realize all that. But that doesn’t change what’s on the table at any given time and what I enjoy.
SPEAKER 06 :
That’s true. And, you know, there are so many things wrapped in the bread. So the other thing you can do is take it and just eat the insides out. You’d be amazed at how, you know, completely delicious it still is. Yes, the bread’s missing, but, you know, grab an extra piece of lettuce, wrap it in it. You do feel like you’re you know, participating in that meal at least. All right.
SPEAKER 16 :
Talk to us about you’ve had a big meal. Maybe you kind of overdid it. It happens, by the way. It happens to all of us, myself included. You know, you’re like, oh, you know what? I’ll be okay. You know, I’ll make it through this well, especially when you eat really clean and then you go do that. It’s like it doesn’t take very long for you to not feel very well. So you go through that. You don’t feel super well. What do you do after that? You know, what’s a good way to help that particular situation when you’ve overdone it?
SPEAKER 06 :
Well, I’m always a proponent of taking high-quality digestive enzymes, but there’s also answers right in your kitchen. So anything fermented will help you digest. So that’s the coleslaw, the pickles, maybe even the pickled beets, the ginger on the side of the plate, even the sauerkraut. So those things actually are aids to digestion, all our ethnicities. ended up bringing them to this country. And, you know, we sort of ignore the fact that those are aids to your meal, not just a flavor. And so taking those, you know, with a meal is always helpful. And, you know, I tell everyone to take digestive enzymes, even if they don’t complain about having digestive problems, because we’re buying the food, we’re preparing it. We’re eating it. We’re going for taste, of course, but the other aspect is we really need the nutrients. It’s the only way we’re getting them.
SPEAKER 16 :
Absolutely.
SPEAKER 06 :
So when you check digestive enzymes, it gives you the nutrition from the meal that you possibly couldn’t break down.
SPEAKER 16 :
And somebody asked a moment ago, what are those? We’ll mention those now. It’s AbsorbAid, and just spell it out, and we’ll talk about where to get that here in just one moment. And we talked last time you were on, Dr. Julie, about how there’s the standard version, there’s the platinum version. I buy the Platinum. I don’t know. I guess just a good, better, best guy. If the best option’s there, I’m going to buy that anyway, so that’s what I do. And no, I’m not paid to say this by anybody, including Dr. Julie. I take these on my own. I take them every night. In fact, my wife last night, I had forgotten to take them. I laid down a bit. I’m like, oh, crap. I forgot to take my… absorbate so i get back up she’s like well grab one for me while you’re at it so it’s just kind of what we do dr julie and and i know it sounds crazy but for those of you listening and my wife even asked me last night do you think these things really help i’m like yeah i said i i know i can tell the difference i can tell when i’ve had one and when i for some odd reason you know got tired went to bed forgot whatever i can tell the difference and for those of you listening they do work how do we get them dr julie uh they can go to the website which is nature’s sources.com
SPEAKER 06 :
And they have the Absorbade and the Absorbade Platinum. They also have it in powdered form. So, you know, anybody of any age can take them. And a lot of my patients give them to their dogs so that the dog gets more nutrition for their meal. Elderly can take them. And you can also call the 1-800 number, use the code radio. And on the website and the radio, they’ll send you some free samples or 20% off your first order. And that number is 1-800- 827-7656.
SPEAKER 16 :
7656 and use code radio. So those of you that called in and asked that, there’s your answer. And by the way, and I know this, and again, I’ve learned enough from Dr. Julie over the years on how this works. You can take them. Pretty much any time. If you wake up, I know for me sometimes you wake up, it’s like, yeah, I just don’t feel as great this morning as I should. My stomach’s not doing as well as it should. Take one. You can take them on an empty stomach. Not going to bother you at all. In a lot of cases, it might actually clear up that maybe you’re still having something linger from the night before. Don’t know what that might be, but you can take these. Dr. Julie, I know because of what you’ve told me, you can take them any time you want to. It doesn’t matter.
SPEAKER 06 :
Yeah, if you take them on an empty stomach, let’s say before bed, you know, sometimes people puff up when they’re flying, their hands hurt when gardening, their back hurts. Because of the enzymes, it breaks down inflammation. It also breaks down bacteria. It breaks down viruses. It breaks down toxins. So you really can’t lose by having this as your staple every day for eating meals and then using it at night to just help to keep the body healthy. Right. You know, inflammatory-free.
SPEAKER 16 :
No. And again, for those of you listening, does it work? Yes, it does. Now, I also want to say this. You can’t, because I’ve made this mistake as well, oh, I’ll take a couple of Absorbade before this meal that I probably shouldn’t have anyways, and that’ll just sort of be the stopgap for the meal. Yeah, it might help, but that’s not a fix-all.
SPEAKER 06 :
It’s not a fix-all, but it does help. You know, not everybody wants to eat well. Okay. Well, take the absorb aid then because you will have more toxins in the body than normal. So you want to have something help push those toxins out of the body so you don’t reabsorb them in the blood and you become more inflamed and sickly and not feeling good.
SPEAKER 16 :
And you are 100% correct. And again, no, folks, it’s not a fix-all. Does it help? Yes. And again, living proof. I’m a personal testimony on all of this. And again, I’ve gotten to the point where I take them at least once a day at night before I go to bed. Typically, though, I’m a once-a-day eater, so I typically have them at my meal. I’ll also have them again at night before I go to bed. And if there’s any time during the day where I’m just not feeling super well for whatever reason, then I’ll take one at that time. As well. And they, Dr. Julie, again, personal testimony. Do they work? Absolutely. Especially for those of you listening, as we head into this time of the year where you’re going to be doing things that you probably don’t do the rest of the year. And the meals are most likely going to get a little heavier because of everything we’ve talked about already up to this point. Take this. It helps.
SPEAKER 06 :
It sure does. I mean, I’ve been using them with patients for, I think over 10 years and I’ve not seen a better enzyme. And, uh, Every time, it just solves the problem. So it’s really been consistent.
SPEAKER 16 :
They do. Question for you, and this is for all of you listening. Most probably know this answer, but you know what? I think, Dr. Julie, there are people where we’ll hear a lot about processed foods. Now, I think for most people that means, okay, it comes in a bag or a can or something along those lines. But is that it? In other words, what’s the best way to tell if something’s really processed and even highly processed? What’s our guide on that?
SPEAKER 06 :
I mean, sincerely, a box, a bag, or a can. And if it has more than three ingredients, I’m sure it’s processed.
SPEAKER 16 :
Okay, so more than three ingredients comes in a box, a bag, or a can. And this is where it gets a little bit difficult when you’re on that smorgasbord line of, you know, you’re at work and there’s a potluck or whatever. You have no idea how somebody made certain things. It may look really good in the dish, but it may have come out of a can. You have no idea. Right.
SPEAKER 06 :
You really don’t. I mean, you know, but it doesn’t happen that often. So if you’re going to do something like that, you know, just be prepared. Don’t overeat. Be smart about it and, you know, enjoy yourself. But, you know, when you’re cooking your own, if you just shop on the perimeter of the grocery store, you’re going to save yourself a lot of unhealth. And I think it’s actually cheaper to buy the fresh rather than buying all the black stuff. It does add up the other way. And you’re not going to be making yourself healthy anyhow.
SPEAKER 16 :
All right. As we head down this stretch, we’re cold season. We’ll start to come around as well as something we’ll talk about even on down the road. But I know there’s things that we should avoid pretty much at all costs because it’s hard on our immune system. What are those things?
SPEAKER 06 :
Let’s see. Well, sugar, of course. So, you know, that’s going to be just rough on you. But it also comes in the form of, you know, juices. I mean, when you’re drinking juice, okay, if you’re having a small shot glass of juice a day, no big deal. But you wouldn’t sit down and eat six apples, but you’ll sit down and eat six apples in a juice. So it’s just too much sugar. Unless you’re juicing something fresh right then and there, it doesn’t really have much vitamin C and nutrition left. You know, coffee, tea, soda pops, they’re really hard on how you digest. They change your acidic system to basic. And when you have an alkaline or a basic system, once again, you’re keeping yourself from absorbing nutrition. So it sets up a block and a wall. And I don’t care when you eat your food and whenever you had your coffee to your pop, it will do that to you. So then when you’re adding all the holiday eating, it’s going to be, you know, even a bigger problem for you eventually.
SPEAKER 16 :
Okay. As always, Dr. Julie, I appreciate it. Learn something every single time you’re on. How do folks find you? I mean, we talk about the Wellness Center and all of that, or the Wellness Institute, I should say. How do folks find you?
SPEAKER 06 :
You can go on to my Instagram, which is Florida Wellness Institute. And if you get to the naturesources.com, there’s information on me as well there.
SPEAKER 16 :

SPEAKER 16 :
All right, finishing out this health and wellness, going back to the first thing I was talking about, which is while exercise is great, even heard Dr. Julie talk about walking and the things it does to help your digestive system and so on, and I am not against exercise by any means. My point with that article that I opened up this particular hour on is don’t be fooled. Even by personal trainers, which a lot of them, I’m sorry to say, will do this, they’ll tell you that exercise will take all your weight off, and it won’t. And again, I love personal trainers. I think their heart’s in the right place. I think that they want the best outcome for the majority of people that they work with. On the same token, and let’s just be honest here, personal trainers have an angle. The longer they can keep you as a client, the more money they make. Meaning, if you’re continually working to get that last five pounds off, ten pounds off, whatever the case might be, and that takes extra time, and you’re still a part of their program, well, where would their incentive be for you to shed that? I’m sorry. Again, I’m not against personal trainers by any stretch of the imagination, but are you really going to get an honest answer out of them when they’ve got a stake in the game? Maybe not. Maybe so. Again, I don’t know each individual personal trainer. I’m guessing they’re just like any other profession. There’s some really good ones and there’s some really not so good ones. True with everything out there. So point being, be careful. in what you’re listening to and who’s telling you what to do and so on. And I’m just telling you, you know, point blank as a person that back in 2010 lost over 100 pounds. And yes, I did. I can show you pictures of what I used to look like. Charlie even knows what I used to look like. And I will tell you that I didn’t do that by exercising. Now, as I got my weight down and I felt better and I felt more like moving and doing things, because when you weigh over 300 pounds, you don’t feel like doing anything. I’m just being straight up honest. You don’t feel like exercising at all. When your weight starts to come off, yes, you’re more energetic. You feel like doing more things and so on. And yes, and I still do. But I will tell you that I didn’t lose that by exercising at all. I exercised as I got closer to my goal weight to feel better. And to have that movement like Dr. Julie was just mentioning, but I didn’t do it to lose weight, and that wasn’t even the plan that I was on. Fortunately, I had really good coaches and folks that helped me along those lines and told me straight up that, yeah, exercise isn’t going to take the weight off. This is simply eating the right foods, getting your metabolism up, eating less than what you’re burning each day, and so on. Now, I will also say this. That was 15 years ago. I was 45. It’s a lot easier to lose weight when you’re 45 than when you’re 60. Again, living proof of that. Those of you out there listening know exactly what I’m talking about. As we age, our metabolism changes. It slows down. What I used to be able to eat when I was 45 and maintain weight isn’t the same today. Now, here’s the hard part, especially for somebody like me. My taste buds and what I want hasn’t changed. I want to eat the same things and the same way I did when I was 45 or even 35. But you can’t. So you have to make those adjustments as we age. Otherwise, you end up picking up weight. And by the way, a lot of older people as they age do. It’s very common for the very reasons I’m talking about. It’s easy to eat more or the same as what you always have. But your body doesn’t need the same to maintain its same weight because our metabolism starts to slow down as we age. So keep that in mind. Something to think about as you’re trying to stay healthy and do the right things and eat the right things and so on. So just a little bit of word to the wise. Do some of those things. You’ll stay healthy. And I want you all to be healthy and live a fulfilled life. Cub Creek Heating and Air Conditioning coming up next. $56 off tune-up special. There’s three to choose from.

SPEAKER 16 :
All right, and closing out this health and wellness, I did have something I was going to talk about more in depth, but I don’t have time. I’ll try my best to do this in the coming weeks, and that is there’s a trend right now going on on social media, and it’s becoming a real problem, and it’s the ingestion of nitrous oxide. You can buy it at gas stations now. It’s a big deal. It’s not even called huffing now. It’s called something completely different, galaxy gas, things like that. There’s different names for it. And be careful. It’s called, the nickname is Whippets. So if you hear any of your family, kids, whatever, talking about a Whippet, that’s what they’re talking about. It’s very dangerous. People are dying from it. So stay on top of that inside of your own family, if you would. That’s it for this first hour of Health and Wellness Wednesday. Hour 2 is next. Rush to Reason, Denver’s Afternoon Rush, KLZ 560.
