Ep 80. What's Real Food? Where do you begin? with Steph Lowe, The Natural Nutritionist The Monica Kade Podcast: Health, Mindset, Career & Lifestyle

    • Entertainment News

"I'm all for someone having a goal around performance or fat loss or whatever it might be that they come to see me for in the first place, but we have nothing without quality of life. There's no point being old if you're very unwell and on a whole suite of medications, at least in my opinion. That's not my idea of quality of life."
- Steph Lowe, Ep80. The Monica Kade podcast



In Episode 80 of The Monica Kade podcast I got to chat to the founder of The Natural Nutritionist, Steph Lowe. Steph started the The Natural Nutritionist as a way of celebrating the importance of real food—and she’s done an incredible job so far. And, if you didn’t know, aside from being a sports nutritionist, she’s a triathlete and author of The Real Food Athlete and most recently Low Carb, Healthy Fat Nutrition—today’s book giveaway.



What I love about Steph is her no-nonsense approach to food. I love how knowledgeable she is on her industry and how she talks about health and nutrition in an easy to digest way. 



I think if we weren’t at the mercy of Melbourne’s blackout cutting Steph’s power short, we probably could’ve chat until sundown on all things health and lifestyle. 



She’s got an insane passion for spreading a positive message about real food and the incredible affect it has on performance—which is actually how I discovered her myself—and I have no doubt your ears will prick up the moment you hear our conversation.
