The afternoon energy crash, the brain fog, the unexplained anxiety spikes, the constant cravings... these aren't random occurrences. They're messages from a system that's desperately trying to communicate with you in a world designed to make you fail.Living with Charcot Marie Tooth disease has taught me something most people never get to experience: immediate, intense feedback from every food choice I make. When I eat processed foods, my symptoms flare within minutes. My balance deteriorates, pain increases, and anxiety floods my system like a wave that doesn't belong to me. But when I nourish myself with intention, my entire nervous system calms down.Here's the truth: your body is saying the exact same things mine is. The only difference? Mine screams, yours whispers.Why Your Environment Is Working Against YouYou're not failing at nutrition, you're navigating an environment engineered for your failure. We've evolved eating whole foods for thousands of years, yet now we're surrounded by hyper-palatable, dopamine-driven foods designed for cravings, not nourishment. This isn't about willpower; it's about biology clashing with modern life.The Five Mechanisms That Control EverythingMost nutrition advice focuses on details that don't create real change. But your body operates on five simple mechanisms that determine your energy, mood, cravings, and overall well-being:Blood sugar stability - the engine for consistent energy and moodSatiety signals - why protein and fiber are non-negotiableUltra-processed food engineering - designed to make you overeatGut health - your second brain that influences everythingInflammation response - the driver behind most symptoms you experienceUnderstanding these five levers gives you the power to make food work for you instead of against you.A Framework That Actually WorksAfter coaching hundreds of thousands of people, I've discovered the approach that sticks. It's not sexy, but it works because it meets you where you are and grows with you:Prioritize protein to stabilize hunger and energyFill up on fiber to support gut health and reduce inflammation Create balanced plates before worrying about advanced strategiesAdd supportive foods before restricting anythingLearn to interpret your body's signals through energy, mood, and digestionYour body notices changes more than you could ever perceive. Your mind notices too. And your resilience will follow.This episode isn't about perfect meal plans or restrictive rules. It's about clarity - learning the language your body has been whispering to you your entire life, and finally giving it what it needs to help you feel supported, energized, and resilient.-----------------------------Bart’s Website🎬 Want to watch this episode?⁠Youtube⁠💻 Follow Bart on socials:⁠Instagram⁠⁠TikTok ⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠Want to contribute to the show? 📧 [email protected]
