Welcome to the Live Well and Thrive podcast, hosted by health and wellness
expert Michael Torchia. In this episode, we tackle the popular yet flawed
notion of skipping meals before holiday feasts to “make room” for
indulgence. Michael shares insights into the body’s caloric processing and
offers practical advice on balancing food intake to avoid the uncomfortable
aftermath of overeating, such as bloating and fatigue.
Listeners will learn how to prepare for celebratory meals by adjusting
their caloric consumption starting two days prior, thus ensuring they can
enjoy Thanksgiving pies or Christmas stuffing without feeling stuffed. This
episode addresses the importance of maintaining regular meals, focusing on
nutritional needs like carbohydrates, fiber, protein, and fats.
Tune in to discover how you can indulge in your favorite holiday foods
without the guilt or need for extreme workout sessions afterward. Enjoy
your meals wisely and welcome the festive season with health and joy.
