What the Nell!?

Welcome to the first episode of season 3!  Today, we're approaching the thought-provoking journey through the complexities of obesity, wellness, and the power of mindset. In this enlightening conversation with Dr. Caissa Troutman, owner of Weight Remdy in Camp Hill, PA.  Dr. Troutman shares her innovative plan that equips patients with the tools to achieve sustainable weight loss, better sleep without medication, and manage menopause by focusing on understanding the role hormones play in all of it. We even touch on my personal venture into a 72-hour fast and how it relates to overall health, far beyond just shedding pounds.

Listen in as we tackle the true definition of obesity, emphasizing its hormonal and biological underpinnings, rather than the outdated notion of personal failure. Dr. Troutman and I discuss the medical complexities of obesity, from genetic predispositions to the crucial role of adipose tissue as an endocrine organ. By understanding the significance of even modest weight loss for reducing disease risk, we shine a light on the need to look beyond BMI and aesthetics, to the substantial health implications of obesity. We also explore the delicate hormonal dance affecting weight and metabolism, revealing insights into hormones like ghrelin and leptin, and their critical role in our health and well-being.

Finally, we delve into the role of culinary medicine in patient care and the importance of sustainable nutritional changes for long-term health benefits. I share my passion for cooking as a stress reliever and the ways in which I integrate this into patient care through cooking demonstrations and mindset sessions. We conclude with a discussion on the value of fasting, not only as a weight loss tool but also for metabolic health, while underscoring the importance of adopting a positive mindset during life's challenges.
