John Berardi Interview - Healthy Nutrition

John Berardi, PhD, creator of the Precision Nutrition program that I use in my nutrition courses was recently interviewed by Christine Williams on the award winning show, On the Line.

Watch these videos if you're interested in learning more about your metabolism, how to eat for health and to lose fat from one of the true experts in the field.

I also recommend his Gourmet Nutrition cookbook, it's a staple in our kitchen at home.

The videos cover a ton of great, practical information so get a pen and paper ready to jot down notes as you watch them. In these videos he explains:

* why discipline doesn't work
* how to hack the fat loss and performance process
* how to short-circuit cravings and emotional eating
* the world's largest body transformation project
* lessons from the Lean Eating program
* why exercise doesn't work
* how to use reward and punishment in your program
* why to start with high dose fish oil supplementation
* what habits should come next
* and much more...

I count Dr. Berardi as a mentor when it comes to nutrition and personally use his program. I like it so much that I was one of the lucky few to be enrolled in the new Precision Nutrition Certified program. I'll have more details on how that will help you in the upcoming months.
