Finding Your Sweet Spot with Cheryl Strachan
Manage episode 452312035 series 3006134
This week is about nutrition, and my guest is Cheryl Strachan of Sweet Spot Nutrition. She is a Registered Dietitian, specialising in cardiac nutrition and wellness.
Her mission is to share her love for food that hits the sweet spot. She is also the author of 3 recipe books. Cheryl believes that we should be eating for health gain that will naturally lead to weight loss.
Today we talk about involvement in cardiac rehab in Calgary and how she developed her model the sweet spot. We have a great discussion about moderation, and what it actually means in real life.
We chat about how what you eat can help reduce fatigue and talk about mood foods. If you want to hear her thoughts on chocolate, coffee, and wine, then stay tuned.
