| 4/3/24 | Type 2 diabetes PART 1: Diagnosis and Risk Factor | #EP 28 | Welcome back to another enlightening episode of Eat, Live, Move with your hosts Dr. Ross Walker and Dr. Gina Cleo. Today, we're diving deep into one of the most prevalent health concerns of our time: Type 2 Diabetes. Join us as we unravel the intricacies of its diagnosis, risk factors, and empowering lifestyle changes.In this episode, our hosts discuss the prevalence of Type 2 Diabetes, mentioning that it is currently on the rise globally, posing a significant public health challenge. Factors such as sedentary lifestyles, unhealthy dietary habits, and increasing obesity rates contribute to this alarming trend. Understanding the scope of this epidemic is crucial in addressing and combating its pervasive impact on individuals and communities worldwide.Insulin resistance serves as a precursor to Type 2 Diabetes, leading to a condition known as pre-diabetes. This metabolic dysfunction impedes the body's ability to utilise insulin effectively, resulting in elevated blood sugar levels. Identifying and addressing insulin resistance early on can prevent the progression to full-fledged diabetes, highlighting the importance of proactive health management.Dr. Walker and Dr. Cleo emphasise that living a healthy lifestyle is remarkably more effective than any pharmaceutical intervention in managing Type 2 Diabetes. From adopting a nutritious diet rich in whole foods to engaging in regular physical activity, lifestyle modifications offer unparalleled benefits for improving metabolic health and overall well-being. These holistic approaches address the root causes of diabetes and empower individuals to take control of their health destinies.Recognising the symptoms and warning signs of diabetes is crucial for early detection and intervention. From increased thirst and frequent urination to unexplained weight loss and fatigue, these indicators signal the need for prompt medical evaluation. By staying vigilant and proactive, individuals can take proactive steps to manage their health effectively.Meanwhile, our hosts emphasise the importance of consistency over intensity when it comes to making lasting lifestyle changes. Building healthy habits takes time and patience, and adopting a sustainable approach is key to long-term success. By prioritising gradual progress and incorporating small, manageable changes into daily routines, individuals can cultivate lifelong behaviours that support optimal health and well-being.By understanding its diagnosis, risk factors, and the transformative potential of lifestyle interventions, we can empower ourselves to take proactive steps towards prevention and management.

| 3/19/24 | The Conscious Health Journey: How to Embrace Self-Awareness | #26 | This week on "Eat, Live, & Move with Miyagi," Kate, the new Chief Transformation Officer of Miyagi and with Dr. Gina Cleo discusses the all-important topic of self-awareness in our health and wellness journey. In a fast-paced world, it can be easy to rush or do things on autopilot with a lack of self-awareness or reflection. However, this can have a negative impact on our health-behaviours, and mean we aren’t stopping to reflect, or have awareness of our behaviours. Kate and Dr. Gina talks about the importance of savouring a slower-paced life, and taking time to stop, pause and reflect to enjoy the present moments. That means, when you find yourself thinking about something you need to do, or something that’s already happened, or something that might happen, gently bring yourself back to the present moment. Focus on what’s going on right now. On your actions, on your environment, on others around you. This takes practice but is essential. Kate provides 3 practical tips to help you practise intentional reflection to “strengthen the muscle” throughout your day to make the process easier. One example is taking 3 deep breaths to improve mindfulness, and bring conscious attention to the present moment. Kate explains that this can work across many settings, for example whether that be before a new task, or to help with behaviours such as slowing down eating, or stopping impulsive drinking or eating. Stay tuned for more episodes of "Eat, Live, and Move with Miyagi". Remember, slowing down is a conscious choice, and not always an easy one, but it leads to a greater appreciation for life and a greater level of happiness. Episode Highlights: 00:00 Coming up 01:46 What is self-awareness and its importance in personal growth? 08:27 Why does the conscious mind tend to focus attention? 10:24 What are human’s two brain systems? 12:20 Know these mindfulness practices to increase your self-awareness. 16:26 How to slow down and enjoy the present moment? 21:51 Learn how to savour each moment in life. 30:10 Why it’s worth it to try sitting with your own discomfort instead of avoiding it. 38:48 A question for Kate from Charlie. 39:09 Making internal changes can empower personal growth and development.

She turned things around by integrating evidence-based tools and listening to her inner wisdom. This shift led her to leave her executive career in 2015 to start her coaching practice, achieving six figures in her first year through word-of-mouth referrals. She also lost 30 kilograms, overcame a 20+ year alcohol habit, and earned Honours Recognition for her MBA despite not finishing Year 12.

| 10/31/23 | Unlocking the Secrets of Optimal Health | #6 | If you’ve been following our podcast so far, then you would have heard Dr Ross mention the 5 keys to optimal health. But what exactly are they? In this week's episode, Dr. Walker and Dr. Gina Cleo takes a deep dive into each of the 5 keys, discussing the evidenced-based science behind each and why they matter for optimal health. Dr Ross developed the 5 keys framework himself, which he not only uses with his patients, but with people all around the globe. He’s even written a number of best selling books on this exact topic! The first key? Aim to quit addictions including smoking, excessive booze, and vaping Wine? A glass is civilized, but don't overdo it. More than two drinks each and every day, you’re putting yourself in harm's way. ? Thirdly, good quality sleep is vital, so ditch those electronics and aim for 7-8 hours of shut-eye. Eating well is simple: less processed junk, more natural foods. Mediterranean diet is the way – fruits, veggies, some meat, dairy, and olive oil. Exercise is a must, and sitting too much is as bad as smoking. Stress can be a silent killer, but happiness is the antidote. Small choices add up to big health gains. So, sip wine, brew coffee, and get moving. For expert advice and a dose of humor, tune in to Eat, Live, and Move with Miyagi. It's the key to your best life. Don't miss it!
