94: The Ultimate Weight Loss Secrets With Dr. Ashley Lucas

Today i have a really fascinating episode for you, I’m talking to PHD Weight loss Founder, Dr Ashley Lucas, holds a PhD in sports nutrition and chronic disease and is also a registered dietitian. She comes to the field of nutrition and weight management as an ex-professional ballet dancer. Once retired from ballet, she started along her path to becoming an expert in the field of nutrition and wellness, with a wealth of first hand experience.  

Following 15+ years of research and clinical practice, Dr. Lucas developed PHD's science-based approach that revolutionized the science of weight loss. Her approach focuses on metabolic wellness, inflammation reduction, and behavioral/emotional support that creates profound sustainable transformation in the body and mind.

Dr. Lucas recently released her new groundbreaking e-book, The Ultimate Weight Loss secrets.  She helps those who have failed over and over again with previous weight loss attempts to finally find long term success!  

In this episode we talk about: 

• Weight loss + nutrition for weight management
• We talk about 3 different ways to drop cortisol levels
• Why too much cardio or exercise isn't a good weight loss tool and how it increases your body’s stress response
• The importance of activating your lymphatic system (my fav topic as of late)
• Dr. Lucas breaks down adrenal fatigue, high cortisol and high insulin and the effect it has on our body and weight 
• Carbohydrate tolerance levels
• Behavioral work associated with weight loss
