About this listen

Claire guides listeners through carbohydrates, proteins, and fats in an approachable, kitchen-table style that makes macronutrients feel like familiar ingredients rather than abstract concepts. She explains what each macro does inside the body—carbs as quick energy for brain and muscles, protein as the construction crew for tissues and organs, fats as concentrated energy and essential building blocks for cells and hormones. Claire dismantles common myths about "good" and "bad" macros, explaining why carbs aren't villains, protein isn't magical, and fats are absolutely essential. She emphasizes that the magic happens when all three work together in balanced meals, providing practical tips for creating satisfying combinations without tracking or measuring. The episode empowers listeners to understand their body's feedback signals and let go of restrictive diet mentalities in favor of flexible, sustainable nourishment.
