The Natural Womanhood Podcast

Breaking free from black & white wellness thinking, w/ nutritionist Ginny Noce, RN

Grace Emily Stark Season 4 Episode 5

Functional medicine-trained nurse and nutritionist Ginny Noce (aka "The Women's Health RN," as she's known to her thousands of Instagram followers) wants you to know that using the nonstick cookware at your AirBnB during your long weekend away isn't going to make or break your fertility health. She also wants you to know that "calories in, calories out" is absolutely the critical key to weight loss—but that where your calories are coming from and how your body is using them is just as essential for achieving your health- and fertility-conscious weight loss goals. Perhaps most importantly, she wants you to know that a maniacal obsession with "clean eating" might be doing more harm than good when it comes to your health, fertility, and fitness goals. 

In today's episode of The Natural Womanhood Podcast, Grace interviews Ginny to help listeners get past the black and white thinking that pervades social media "wellness culture," to pursue their health, fertility, and weight loss goals, and more. In this episode, you'll hear from Ginny:

- What sets apart the functional medicine approach to nutrition 

- Why unbalanced hormones are not a root cause in and of themselves for fertility issues like PCOS, recurrent miscarriage, and more  

- What "the plate method" is, and why it's a critical tool in her nutrition practice 

- Why insulin balance is one of the most critical components to good health and fertility

- How to achieve healthy, sustainable weight loss in a way that promotes—not harms—your female fertility

- And more!
