We are genetically wired to eat more and move less;
it’s no wonder most people fail to achieve health and weight-loss
goals. But there is a solution.
In this episode, Robb Wolf defuses the guilt and
morality around changing your eating and lifestyle habits
by teaching how to radically change your life
using personalized nutrition, the
ancestral lifestyle, and loving connected relationships
that unlock your best health.
Robb Wolf, Host of the Paleo Solution Podcast and
author of The
Paleo Solution, shares about his new
book, Wired
to Eat, his story of how he overcame his own health
issues after struggling for years, and what he's discovered
from decades of research about human nature and finding
optimal wellness. Robb's new book digs into the details of how
you can turn off cravings, rewire your appetitie for
weight loss, and determine the foods that work for you.

and ancestral
health, yet he's also open about how he believes himself
to be in the same health and wellness journey that we all are. The
truth is that it can be hard to let go of old weight
because we might be afraid to fail again, but Robb is here to
with a message of science and experience that there is a
solution.
Wired To Eat
Have you or the people close to you ever struggled with cravings
or an appetite that can sometimes seem out of control? Have you
ever felt anger or frustration about your relationship with
food?
You are not alone.
There are millions of people in the country and across the world
that feel that exact same way. Listen to episode 103 as Robb Wolf
uncovers the scientific reasons why we are all wired to eat
and how this modern world and big food system is set up to
capitalize on our biology.
Utilizing a 30 day reset and a 7 day carb test, Robb
unpacks how this will help determine what amounts and types of
carbohydrates your specific body can tolerate. No more guessing,
because now we can all find out for ourselves which foods we can
and cannot eat, instead of relying on some BS one-size-fits-all
frame.
After over 100 shows this goes down as one of Josh's top
3 most in-depth, authentic, and powerful conversations
he's ever had on Wellness Force and Radio.
Discover how to turn off cravings, rewire
your appetite for
weight loss, and determine the foods that work for
you!

Wired To
Eat explains how more willpower and better discipline are
not the missing pieces to health and fat loss. Our genetics are
working against us in the modern world of super tasty foods. In
this new book you will learn about neuroregulation of appetite and
how hyperpalatable foods can bypass our built in “off switch”,
causing us to eat far more than we otherwise would. The genes that made
our ancestors successful are setting us up for troubles today.
You will learn how sleep, gut health, stress, exercise and
community can work with or against our goals of health and
leanness.
With Wired To Eat you’ll embark on a program
to rewire your appetite and regain your health. We will start with
a 30 Day Reset that will normalize the neuroregulation of appetite
and help us not only to eat the right amount, but also begin to
appreciate simple but delicious meals. After the 30 Day Reset we
will use the 7 Day Carb Test to map what specific carbohydrate
foods we do best (and worst) with. This will move us beyond
one-size-fits-all dietary dogma and into the modern world of
Personalized Nutrition.
Wired To Eat includes over 60 whole-food recipes
and includes meal plans for the 30 Day Reset as well as for
autoimmune and ketogenic diets.

Listen to Episode 103 as Robb Uncovers
- Robb's response to when people say they do not believe
in Paleo and
ancestral health: the evidence is there that it works and it's
helping people.
- How Paleo health got its start with just a couple of thousands
of people studying and researching it.
- The emotion and story behind Robb writing his upcoming
book, Wired to Eat.
- How the human race has evolved in such a way that it's
difficult to eat healthy with our current environment:
food to order, a variety of flavors, processed foods etc.
- Why we have a mindset that we can't be healthy even as we're
watching other people do just that.
- It's hard to make changes in our lives because we're afraid to
fail or look bad.
- How Robb struggled with his own health and
inherited genetics.
- Despite his success as an author and podcast host, Robb has
always been able to stay level-headed and stay true to
himself.
- What Robb has learned from watching other people in the
industry and how he used that point of view as an opportunity to
decide how he would present himself to the public.
- How Robb's mom's health scare with her gastrointestinal health
led to Robb taking a closer look at his own health and adjust his
nutrition to follow the Paleo diet.
- Robb's experience adapting to a Paleo based diet and the
success he has had with it.
- How Robb met his wife, Nicki, when he moved to Chico,
California and the unknown link their mothers shared by having the
same rheumatologists.
- The impact of the death of Nicki's mother from rheumatoid
arthritis and how Robb wishes he could've helped her based on what
was able to help his mother.
- How Robb's 30 Day Reset plan can help people take a closer look
at their nutrition and improve their lives.

- How our modern world has taken away the positive impact of

our appetites are telling us: when we're truly hungry and when
we're full.

to eat dessert even though we've just polished off a huge
meal.

varies from person to person depending on several factors such as
stress, sleep, genetics etc.
- The idea of calories in and calories out simply doesn't work.
We need to balance our
activity and nutrition out. If we're very active, we need
more nutrients, but if we have a low calorie day, we're
naturally less active.
- If we get into an over-fed state, we're overweight, but our
brain cannot sense it because it's become numb to the feeling of
over-eating food.

Program in Wired to
Eat and why it's only 30 days: It's not a
long time, but enough time to collect necessary information to help
the person see results as far ar their:
- The mission behind the 7 Day Carb Test:
it helps people to see the impact that different carbohydrates have
on their bodies and minds.

would give to people who follow it or a low-carb diet.
- The blood-glucose monitors that
Robb offers on his website and what it can tell you about yourself
in accordance with different parameters such as food and
sleep.
- Precision Xtra Glucose+Ketone meter
- Dexcom Continuous Glucose monitor

levels? Robb shares how technology is making it easier
for us to learn about our bodies and what we can do to modify our
daily habits for better health.
- How becoming a parent has helped Robb become more patient with
both himself and others.
- What it was like for Robb to write his second
book, Wired to Eat and some of the hurdles he
had to jump to make sure his voice was heard in the book.
Top 3 Takeaways From The Show
- What have we got to lose from trying a diet like the Paleo
diet? If we're doing all that we can to help our health, but
nothing is helping, simply changing your focus on nutrition could
be the solution. Change can be difficult but with
Robb's 30 Day Reset
Program and 7 Day Carb Test,
we'll be able to see that making small changes to our diet really
isn't that difficult after all.
- Our modern world has stolen the positive impact of the
natural optimum foraging strategy that was passed down to us by our
ancestors. This is why we experience palate fatigue after we eat
the same processed foods over and over again. The Paleo diet brings
us back to that optimum foraging strategy so we can avoid palate
fatigue. What our bodies and minds need is a variety of healthy,
nutritious foods that can help us function better.
- Our bodies have a gut, health, and brain connection
and The 4 Pillars of Health have a great
influence over this connection. The 4 Pillars of Health are Sleep,
Movement, Community, and Nutrition. Our genetic and environmental
factors can either make it easier for us to overeat or if we're
able to balance the 4 Pillars, we can manage our nutrition.
Power Quotes From Robb Wolf
"Eat whole foods, get outside, move a lot, sleep like
you are on vacation, and surround yourself with loving
relationships." - @robbwolf
- "If we understand how our world has changed, our genetics are
wired for a different world, we can free ourselves of the shame and
missed placed morality associated with you and hearing difficulties
of change. We can finally stop bleeding ourselves for our inability
to lose weight and get healthy." - Robb Wolf
in Wired to Eat
- "We are genetically wired to eat more and move less; it’s no
wonder most people fail to achieve health and weight-loss goals."
- Robb Wolf in Wired to
Eat
- "The fact that the Paleo diet can be difficult for some people
to follow indicates that there is a mismatch between our genetics
and our current environment. Everything that made our ancestors
successful and everything that brought us to where we are today is
the reason why changing our diets can be difficult." -
Robb Wolf on why it's difficult for people to follow healthy diets
like the Paleo diet.
- "We often tell ourselves stories about why we are a certain
way. We tell ourselves why we can or cannot change. And the common
denominator with most of the stories is fear. Fear of change,
failure, or wasting time. This fear sends the logical mind
searching for credible reasons why embarking on a new solution
seems like a bad idea." - Robb Wolf in his upcoming
book, Wired to Eat about why we let fear get in
the way of our goals.
- "It's not about me, it's about the mission." -
Lauren Noel on the importance of staying true to yourself while
becoming more recognizable in the health and wellness
industry.
- "I basically adopted a low-carb, Paleo diet and it was almost
as if a switch had been flipped. For the first time in my life, I
didn't have to eat every hour and a half to two hours or face a
catastrophic hypoglycemic event. I was completely functional. I
felt good, I was leaner than I had ever been in my life, and it was
all effortless." - Robb Wolf on deciding to follow a
Paleo diet to improve his health.
- "Eat whole, unprocessed foods, get outside in the sun, move a
lot, sleep like you are
on vacation, and surround yourself with loving
relationships." - Robb Wolf in Wired to
Eat on how to stay healthy.
- "With a Paleo template, you can still add spaghetti if you want
to add it. You can have spaghetti squash and it might be a bit odd
for some people at first, but when you add the marinara sauce, it
still tastes delicious. It's the same as normal spaghetti because
you don't even taste the noodles. What you taste is the marinara
sauce on top." - Robb Wolf on how you can eat Paleo
foods and still enjoy the meal.
- "Be able to do whatever I want to do with very little
preparation or effort within the 4 pillars of health: sleep,
nutrition, movement, and community. We need to have a balance of
all 4 and if we're successful, we'll be able to do a large amount
of what we want to do with our lives." - Rob Wolf on
what wellness means to him.
- "People are not swayed into action by information. Most people
make changes in behavior due to emotion, not facts and figures.
This is not a bad thing; our emotions, coupled with our logical
intellect, is what make us human." - Robb Wolf
in Wired to Eat
