everything in moderation, even moderation 💃 this is for those unsatisfiable craving kinda days, you know? ♥
Sending love to you my lovely. Keep smiling my sweet and I hope you and Mario are truly finding something that makes you laugh and smile everyday. Thank you for everything you do and for considering each and every single one of us ❤️
You've helped me a lot thank you so much i love you
Amen!!! Sister!! Thank you for breaking this down and explaining so well! Love your videos
💖❤
Love the fact that you are back ! Thanks for teaching us the healthy way of seeing exercise and food relashionship 🥰. Thank you so much, definitely you helped me so much in my TCA recovery.
XOXO
I'm almost started crying when you said "if you are still working on your relationship with food, I'm super proud of you."... This is exactly what I needed to hear today. I am so excited that you are bad to RUclips but I won't be watching this one. Thank you for being such a healthy light within the health and fitness space. I am truly grateful.
I’m really happy you did what’s right for you 😁🙏 you go Christina, I’m really proud of you and have so much faith that you’ll get to where you’re going 🤍🤍 big hugs and thank you for all the kindness!
@@natachaoceaneI like you and how your smart and blonde I’m a boy but I wish blonde women were given nicer intellect on tv like you ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
as a scientist at heart and as a person with a passion for research, I've missed your science explained videos! they're so well researched and written - being able to do what you do is an incredible feat. it's such a privilege to be given all of this knowledge in an easy and consumable fashion through your videos. can't wait to see what else you have in store for us ❤
hey Britney! I really missed them too, I actually felt a little rusty and this took me longer to film and explain how I wanted to than usual but I am really happy to be getting back into them. You really are too kind, and I'm sure with a little practice you'd be amazing at breaking down all the incredible work you're doing too! 💛 it means a lot that you like them because making science more accessible was the whole goal for my channel, so thank you for saying.
sending you big hugs and I hope you're happy and staying healthy!!
@@natachaoceane i've never been the best at presentations but if I've learned anything from you is that i can't limit myself by labels either. it'll take time, but i know that i can work up to your level of fluency in simplifying scientific literature one day.
rusty or not, the science behind this video is so thorough and well thought out just like the rest of them! I really hope that more people can see what you're doing and learn from the information that you're putting out and start to use science in their daily lives too
I would have never started watching this channel if it weren't for the videos with 35 scientific references. And I've told friends about how there's this "influencer" woman who I'm regularly watching, but she also has a science degree, creates videos with best current scientific understanding with actual references, and she has completed the Ironman and trains to keep her body in shape to enjoy all of the varieties of the physical activity that she chooses to do. My friends are like, yes, that! Well of course y'all had not heard of anyone like her before, the internet's options are so limited for a qualified popular social media platform success spouting real understanding.
I agree ! This is exactly why I am loving her content compared to other health themed influencers. One amazing youtuber who does the same is channel called Medlife Crisis .
love this comment aw
You (briefly) cited Dr Stevenson (who wrote the paper on western-style diets and hippocampal-dependent learning) who collaborates with my lab!! I study the effects of western diets on the hippocampus :) It is nice to see our work in mainstream media!
Great video once again, it's definitely a complex subject to tackle but you did it so well!
Omg that’s so cool!!
wow that is super cool! I have been doing my own research on our western diets as i’ve recently become vegan. It is all very interesting!
Anecdotally ever since I stopped restricting myself and just give in to cravings I almost NEVER binge any food or have any cravings. It's kind of wild honestly. As someone who struggled with an ED for 10 years it has kind of changed my life
So strange how the mind works right
I second this, I had the exact same experience too
same here. ever since i told myself you have the permission to eat anything i dont really have much cravings for a particular kind of food anymore.
Me too. I've realised I don't like chips I used to binge on... they're super salty! I would rather have something else. When the tummy is full of a great variety of foods your mind doesn't play the hunger game anymore
@@virgismar so true 😂 same for chocolate etc candy it's all so sweet
So happy you’re back!!! And proud of my relationship with food and how far it’s come- I can watch this with no trouble while eating a chocolate chip cookie, right before my workout! 😉 About a year and a half ago I was eating 800 calories a day, hadn’t touched bread/refined sugars in years, and was weak, miserable, and unhealthy inside and out. I realized it was unsustainable and I had to put my focus on being healthy rather than staying skinny. About 6 months into reverse dieting, I watched a video of one of yours and Mario’s donut dates, and I drove to my local donut shop afterward and enjoyed my first donut guilt-free- that was a monumental day for me! 💕 I eat intuitively now, but the last time I counted calories I was eating ~2100 a day. Now I’m lifting weights and feeling stronger and happier than ever! So thank you for the instrumental role you played in my recovery. Grateful for you! 💖
This is so wonderful! So glad you’re healthier and happier now, and enjoying life and all the delicious things it has to offer!
This is amazing I always wanted to know how many calories I eat in a day to make sure I’m getting enough but I feel like it’s impossible with school and everything. I’m so happy you are feeling better and stronger. I will say with reverse dieting I love having muscles more than ever looking skinny
That's incredible!
to say i’m in the exact same boat would be an understatement. i’m so proud of you. i understand the struggle. it’s amazing to hear i’m not an alien. sending you love ! 🤍
this is amazing! happy for your progress and where you are right now!
I am a certified, studied dietitian and I love your science explained videos about dietetics/food or training. The studies you pick, are very helpful and very qualified. More of this, please!! And keep your healthy relationship with food and fitness, it's sadly very rare here in the Industry :)
I didn't realize how much I've missed seeing the little notification from you these past months! You are an absolute joy to watch and always brighten my day with how cool you are throwin down facts! Glad you're back :D
thank you so much for the kindness. you all brighten my day the very same way so I'm really grateful ♥ it really means the world that you enjoy my videos so thank you for saying, I hope you have the best day and feel so healthy and happy and strong! 💪
This couldn’t have come at a more perfect time! I’ve fallen out of my meal prep routine and I’ve been having so much trouble sticking to my healthy meals😩
hey Jade! Ah I know how much the loss of routine and habit can knock on like that, but you'll find a good place again! Changes always take a little second but you're doing so well ♥
Oh my gosh, I'm right there with you. Went from making 5 meals per week to 2. Not a good feeling.
"Scientists have largely debunked the myth that food cravings are our bodies' way of letting us know that we need a specific type of nutrient. Instead, an emerging body of research suggests that our food cravings may actually be significantly shaped by the bacteria that we have inside our gut." Maybe your gut bacteria is off? I don't know how accurate that study is, but just from personal experience I believe it. You could try a "gut repair" powder/ formula, that really really helped me with craving unhealthy shit.
I can totally relate to the sweetness study just based on small (non-dieting related) personal choices I've made with moving to eating more whole foods. From commercially sweetened (oil, salt, sugar) peanut butter to natural peanut butter (just peanuts) to cutting down on candy, switching it out for dried fruit, and now rarely consuming dried fruit - wow. Also your sensitivity to flavours in general increases when you cut the added salt and sugar in your diet. Natural foods and whole foods will taste more flavourful when your palate isn't distracted by artificial flavours
So happy that you came out with this video... literally going to go through and read every single study you shared in the description box 😊🙏 thank you for sharing~
Very helpful: informative, not fear-mongering, but not downplaying the effect of these ultra-processed foods. Good breakdown of why being drastic doesn't usually result in long-term success.
Hai 💋
i appreciate how compassionate you are when talking about any foods
🙈 you guys are the best. everyone's in a different place so I do my best, and I hope the video can be helpful in some way! big hugs!
Great video! I'm someone who struggles with overeating these kinds of foods and it is sooo useful to hear some actual scientific reasoning rather than just hearing "you need more will power". Factors like stress, lack of sleep, etc might be hard to address but it's a concrete starting point - plus there's definitely both mental and physical health benefits to addressing these issues!
It is definitely not about being "better" or "stronger" it really is about staying away from restriction
I mean, she's literally educating us while entertaining us too
Sometimes you just gotta eat a full bag of doritos, once in awhile! I always love how you once said "everything in moderation, even moderation." Ps hopefully once this pandemic passes, you'll plan another newhorizon escape! An adventure getaway sounds amazing after all of this
hey Michaela! Yeah for sure girl, I really think life is here to be enjoyed and this is really just to help with those uncontrollable, unending cravings you know? I would absolutely love to do something like that and meet and spend time with more of you again for sure. I don't work with NHE any more though, but maybe the stars will align!!
It makes my heart so happy to have you posting again. I've rewatched all you older videos so many times and it's so much for to see new ones. I love your energy and attitude towards life and it's challenges. Proud of you for taking time to rest after a stressful season. You inspire me greatly.
I can not even put into words the emotion I felt when I saw your new video pop up. You are someone I aspire to be. Thank you!!
I'm so happy you're back 😭 your videos radiate so much positivity I always end up super motivated
So glad to have you back, Natacha
I have never clicked on a video so fast! So happy to see you making educational science based content! You were the first person to help me understand my health and how to take care of my body! Thank you so much for all you do for me and this amazing community! 🥰🧡
hey Cate!! Ah yayy it's honestly the best feeling to know that something of mine could be useful and help you take care of yourself 🥺 thank you so much for saying, and I hope you keep feeling even better and even more in tune with your body. All my love!
the component on chronic stress is so important! and i think a really key moment to talk about things like racism, poverty, and domestic violence and the ways that living in those oppressive conditions can have adverse health impacts.
The amount of work you put into these videos is sooo visible! Thank you for providing us with information that is reliable and trustworthy! I love love love these videos!!
I love it when Natacha makes videos like this because I LOVE science and health so together they’re a spectacular combo.
It's so good to have you back Natacha. Your ability to review and comprehend complex scientific studies before clearly communicating the findings with real-World examples and suggestions is extremely impressive and you never fail to be interesting. There's so much BS and misinformation within the online health and fitness community however your channel is a shining beacon of honesty, hope, compassion and common sense. Thanks for another brilliant video!
Natacha: "the tortoise always wins".
Me *having struggled to keep up with one of her workout videos this morning: ah, fantastic, i'm winning.
Wtf are all these bots!!!
Natacha, I am so happy to see you on RUclips again. You’ve changed my mind completely. I didn’t know how to train well and I didn’t know how to eat. I just forgot how to do that intuitively when I got into working out, I went crazy. I love to listen your science explaining videos, they are so informative. I am trying to find free relationships with food and training now, I’m working on it. I am not scared to go out to eat anymore, I’m training to listen my body. Thank you a lot, you are doing an amazing job, you save us
the hard work and science you put behind these videos make them my favorite of yours! Thank you Nat! 😊
SHES BACK! Thank you so much Natacha for being such a huge inspiration to me. As always, you have been such a great motivator for me to recover from my ED and proving that it IS POSSIBLE. Love always ✌️❤️
Natacha is simply perfect in every way, beautiful, smart, educated, fit and a great personality.
i’m so excited to refer back to this video and share it with people. thank you for all your hard work researching this Natacha, i feel the exact same way as you about misinformation around food and health and exercise. feeling so proud of how far i’ve come since i discovered you a few years back ♥️
Merci Natacha pour tout ton merveilleux contenu 😍 Depuis 4 ans, mon rapport à l'exercice physique et à l'alimentation s'est tellement amélioré et tout ça a commencé avec tes vidéos, ton approche scientifique, ta bonne humeur et ton magnifique sourire. Merci tellement ❤️
i absolutely love love love and appreciate your videos. They shifted my perspective to "gotta look aesthetically pleasing and eat to be healthy but really the priority is losing weight" to "how can i work WITH my body to give it what it needs and how can i Listen to it so i can feel as best as i can" and im eternally greatful for that
This is honestly the best thing in the world to read and I am so happy for you and so excited for all the happiness to come from it 😊 all my love Tamar 🤍
@@natachaoceane ♥️♥️♥️ all the love to you!
@@tamarkipiani4096 Hey! I just read your comment and was wondering if you have any tips for me 😊 I struggled my whole life with food and even though I made some great progress regarding self love and self acceptance, it's still really hard for me to loose weight. I want to be healthy and fuel my body with all of the good stuff, but I can't seem to find a way to do so.
QUEEN IS BACK AGAIN! i love these science explained vids :)) so excited for more content ❤️
aww yay it's so good to hear anyone say they love hearing about science so I'm very very happy! All my love!
@ Celine hai 💋💋💋💓
So glad you’re back! Love these videos so much! Thankyou for everything you do for us 💛
I LOVE these type of videos where you explain the science behind things! You do it in such a simplified and easy to understand way. Keep em coming please!
What an interesting topic, thank you for the video! I'm really glad you are back and make fitness RUclips so much better with your content :)
hey! ah I am really happy you find the topic interesting, I hope something in here can help you somehow 💛 It's really good to be back and I'm grateful for your support and good energy!
And when I need it most, Natacha posts! Thank you! Hope you, Mario, and the fam are doing well 💕
I hope you're happy and feeling gooood and staying healthy! All our love!
Fantastic! I am running at the moment. Will listen to this now 🏃♀️ 💪! 🥰🥰 Love you Natacha! Have binging your videos the last couple of days again! Thank you for everything!
Pleaaseee keep making this type of videos!!! loved it! Your voice is so important to the health community 🤍
hey beautiful! it really means so much to hear that you enjoy listening to the science, thank you! I'm really grateful for your support!!
This looks SO GOOD! I don’t know if I’ll be able to wait until after work to watch it! 🤩😭
hahah I really hope it lives up to the expectations! See you in a few hours and big hugs!!
Your Science Explained series is so helpful! So happy you’re making more!
I really do realise how valuable you are as a person, and how much your videos mean to me, when you are the only person on youtube to who’s new videos i physically shout “omg YESSS!!” to❤️
For some reason, these kinds of videos actually make it easier to eat healthier because it makes me more aware of what the triggers are. So if it’s finals week, try to have less processed foods around and have more low calorie dense foods at hands reach. It’s really cool and smart.
Ah, how I've missed YOU and these awesome, ✨vigorously✨ researched and produced science explained videos. This video helped me understand myself better and I'm definitely going to come back to watch it again and again along my journey. It's crazy to think that "simple cravings" actually are produced on purpose by food companies 😝 thanks Natacha, have a good one!
Love these kind of videos Natascha! Keep the science coming!! 🙌🏽
Thank you Natacha for this video!!! I am currently recovering from binge eating disorder, something I've been struggling with a lot during the pandemic but really since childhood, and your approach / relationship to food makes me feel so hopeful for the future. thank you so much for your thorough research and authenticity
So agree on diet effecting anxiety. I have been battling anxiety and depression for years and when I started eating healthier (still had cheat meals randomly), I realized it was day and night!
Do you notice if your cheat meals trigger any anxiety or depression currently? I had a cheat meal a few weeks ago and I was really depressed afterwards, for more than a week. This is the second time that this happened.
Yeah totally! But also depends how much I would have. If it’s a small portion of something, I’m fine. But it’s when I get carried away and eat til I’m full with something bad
"Don't do unsolvable math problems"
IT Developers: Well I'm screwd
hahaha *gulps*
I'm a Software Developer who gets cravings right after work and I thought the same thing! 😭
Such a timely message for me! You also make Mondays so much more tolerable
Natacha you are honestly the reason I was able to start curing my eating disorder years ago. It feels so incredibly relaxing being able to watch this video and not being triggered by any of it anymore. Thank you so much 💜🧡💚
i’ve been recovering from an eating disorder for a long time now, and feel like i’ve gone backwards and can’t stop eating. i’ve been feeling lost as to what i should do and this video made me feel so much better. gave me so much clarity :,)
I love your positivity!!! And I love you and all your science. A note about chronic stress - Racism, poverty, unsafe neighborhoods, lack of access to healthcare resources/transportation, etc etc etc are all social determinants of health that perpetuate chronic stress and trauma responses, which will only exacerbate health disparities among people of color and/or low socioeconomic status!
Love these science vids! Absolutely fascinating and mind blowing that there's a whole engineering behind how your food crunches! Was also great to bump into you on Saturday.
Welcome back! I love your educational videos I’ve always learned so much . People need to stop feel bad about eating “bad” foods!
Just wanna add about the menstrual cycle part that women’s cycles can vary a lot more than the average 28 days (between 21-40 days) and the luteal phase can vary much more than 14 days, roughly 11-17 days but can be shorter for some women. Just a mention :)
Show me the "paypas" for this 😜
This video really opened my eyes because I’ve been working out for awhile (6 going on 7 years) initially when I was losing weight I cut out certain food groups but now that my relationship with food in a process at the moment I realized I never had a pizza without healthy ingredients on tops or craved things like ice cream. I know people stress moderation is key but I only really give myself truly moderation in the holidays and eventually graduation.
This is how I’m trying to be lol I work out constantly but I’ve always messed up the way I eat I need to learn moderation 🤦🏻♀️
Give yourself treats every now and then but also I love to experiment with new recipes that can be lower calorie dense so it doesn’t feel like I’m depriving myself whether that be a chocolate protein ice cream, jello mousse, or parfait. It take being creative at times lol.
Thanks so much Natacha, so lovely to have you back. Such an inspiration. x
I really love how you back your videos up with scientific studies!
Can't thank you for this!! You're such an inspiration and so down to earth 🌞
you're way too kind to me, thank you for everything!!
Natacha: "the tortoise always wins".
Me *having struggled to keep up with one of her workout videos this morning: ah, fantastic, i'm winning.
I sing “carbs, carbs, carbs!” The way Motley Crue sings “girls, girls, girls!”
💃💃💃💃 haha I think I prefer your version 🤸
Such a wonderful video, got me teary-eyed at the end. Made me reflect upon many things, its nice to know how many factors go into your cravings and food consumption overall. Also helped me see the harmful "diet" (it was actually a full-on food restriction that made me miserable and contributed to increasing my already general anxiety disorder) a doctor (he was not a dietitian) had put me once on. I'm glad now that I'm having a progressively better relationship with food and exercise in general and this video (and man others) of yours have contributed towards that. thank you for your work, it's truly informative, loved, and appreciated.
Natacha you're so kind and sweet and this video is amazing! Really informative and I love how you cite the literature and explain it and make it so so relatable. Thank you so much xx
I needed this. I'm trying to get back into a healthy lifestyle after a rough year and a half.
you're doing so well, I really hope the video can help a little! Big hugs Casey!
Same here! We got this! 💖
Me too! It’s very hard though!
Your intro was the bubbliest most wonderful thing - thank you for the trigger warning. You’re a beautiful person, inside and out. ❤
You are genuinely one of the best youtubers out there, and I’m so glad you’re back uploading again, I like to watch a positive RUclips video each morning before I start my day and seeing you upload is super exciting! I was the healthiest I’d ever been right before the pandemic hit, I was so confident, loved looking at my progress and felt so good about myself. Fast forward to now and I have gained all the weight back and then some, due to the very quick weight gain from bingeing and eating my feelings I have also gained a lot of stretch marks over my body, especially my stomach. Going from my dream figure, mindset etc to where I am now has been really hard to come to terms with.
I’ve been feeling so down about myself for so long now and hearing you say “drastically not bring drastic” really hit me. The temptation each day to go hard with dieting, exercise, and creating unachievable goals and expectations for myself easily keeps me in the loop of trying and not actually getting anywhere or making any progress. Thank you for this brilliant video, you really inspire me and clearly so many others.
I’d be really interested to see a video based on how the pandemic has affected people, especially those with dieting issues. sometimes it feels as if I’m the only one who has put on as much as I have, I feel so alone with it! And also wonder how people got through the lockdowns without using food as their muse?! I’m going to slowly start addressing the problems I have with food and try and get back to that good, happy place again. I really think this video will help me with that. Thank you so much Natacha X
A science explained? From Natacha? I'M SO READY FOR THIS!!
🥰 how'd I get so lucky 🥺
Sadly "eating junk food in moderation" never worked for me. I tried to eat "intuitively" and just ate whatever I felt like without weighing myself or counting calories. I gained about 60 lbs during 4 years of doing that. At a certain point I started to loathe chocolate and the whole taste of it and I STILL COULD NOT stop eating it until it made me literally sick.
The only thing that ever worked for me was cutting out junk food or processed food completely. At first it was pretty terrifying and my craving was so bad that I spend the first two weeks just crying and shaking. But now after three years I feel very relaxed around food because junk food is just not an option anymore. I don't buy it, I don't eat it, I don't think about it, I don't need it.
With non processed food I have a very easy time to eat intuitively and just eat whenever I feel like it. I don't count calories but since I mantain a steady weight in the normal BMI range I assume I eat exactly how much I need.
I could never eat just one piece of chocolate or one cookie. Some people can. I can't. Everybody's different and everybody needs to find out what works best for them.
I am exactly the same!! Thank you so much for this comment, I feel like it was myself that wrote it! I can’t have just one biscuit or just one slice of cake. It’s then on my mind for the rest of the day and I want more and more. I only just recently admitted this to myself. I wish I could learn to have these foods in moderation but it’s not an option. I’m so glad I read this comment as it has offered me comfort that I am not alone.
You are not alone! I'll turn 40 next month and I only figured this out 2-3 years ago after years and years of countless diets and failed tries to "eat intuitively". I just can't eat junk food intuitively, it's just not possible for me and my life has been much easier since I stop trying and just cut it out completely.
Good luck with you journey! :)
@@veronikachristen2373 well you should be so proud of yourself! I can’t believe the timing of reading this comment, it’s really inspired me. honestly thank you so much! This has just given me the push I needed to forge ahead with my new journey! Good luck to you too! Take care ❤️
Just wanted to say love your videos so much, love learning the science behind nutrition, you inspire me so much!
The thing that makes this even more impressive is the growth you went through to get to this point. And this defenetly shows in the way you want to help others not to fall in the trendy diet traps or whatever is going on in the food industry these days.
I really enjoy this sort of content from you ❤
Top tip (though only empirical 😀):
Watch for combinations of very "triggering" macros + and other agents. Most common IMO are sugar - fat - salt - caffeine - alcohol.
All fine and managable solo and in smaller dosis, but in combination the body is tricked.
Think a McMenu Meal: fries (fat, simple carbohydrates~sugar, sodium) + a coke (sugar + caffeine), thats five! I feel my body doesn't have much chance against this.
I don't fully restrict myself from anything, but am consious of that combination number. I'll either have a water, if fries are what i crave, or a coke, but usually not both at the same time. This has a huge impact on the control I have around these foods, without restricting to much.
Hope somebody finds this useful, I'm rooting for you!
Agreed! I empirically derived that for me it's fat+sugar combination, I have a sweet tooth. It's also useful to do the same for the satiety: I've noticed that if I eat low fat foods no matter the volume I'm not gonna be satiated for too long even if I eat enough of protein. Empirically, I came to conclusion that I need 45-50g of protein and 30 g of fat per meal, I eat 3 meals a day (no snacking) with calorie intake 2,200-2,300 cal.
@@nataliyasavchuk2737 so true! I can't function on to little fat, no matter the calories, my body simply needs it. I will start eating everything within reach after trying to restrict it :D My husband on the other hand is perfectly happy with protein+carbs and very little fat, so different body types I guess... But so important to learn what really satiates you, and stop minding the calories too much. Takes some time :)
I'd be really interested to know if there is any research around energy expenditure for those of us that are on hormonal contraception. Do we still have fluctuating energy expenditure throughout our "cycle" (do we have a proper cycle) or do the hormones stop that from happening.
Your science explained videos are my absolute favorite. Keep up the awesome work!
Love this video!! Reminds me of my physiological adaptations seminar I did in the last year of college which involved going through the literature and piecing together why our bodies have a specific responses to different stimuli. Really well done and very informative!! I really really appreciate an evidence-based explanation to phenomena rather than just anecdotes and vibes lool
This such an informative and helpful video. I was watching this video at my kitchen bench at 7:30AM eating a bow of ice cream, half awake. I am waiting on my official ADHD diagnosis in November and a lot of things you mentioned I can see have a correlation with why I eat the way I do. Most of the time I don’t actually want that food but I’m looking for a dopamine hit. Likewise I’ve been under a lot of stress being in lockdown again and that triggers a lot. Thanks for basically making me not feel crazy and as our of control as I have been feeling. I think I can take away some small actionable steps from this video. Thank you! ❤️
Hello! Saw this and felt the need to comment - I got my ADHD diagnosis last November at age 27 no less, and I can't tell you how much better my relationship with food is now I am not relying on it for ALL the dopamine, I wish you the best of luck in your journey, it's truly been life-changing for me x
@@hcol6897 Thank you for comment, that is so great to hear! I’m 26, so not that far off your diagnosis age. I’m just looking forward to not feeling so out of control of my decisions and having my feelings being validated. I can’t wait! Thanks for sharing that with me!
The opening comments regarding the Doritos is so relatable!
Love your positive science based approach, so refreshing compared to most fitness channels! Feels like a British female Jeff Nippard (please take this as the compliment that it is). Ever tight if a collaboration?
Much love from Yorkshire. X
I'm OBSESSED with this type of content! There sooo much information on the internet 🥺and honestly, it's so overwhelming trying to find concrete information/data! Then it can be a whole other thing trying to understand what I'm reading and relay that to others🥴. You explained everything so well and it was easy to follow what you were saying
I always crave food the week before my period in that late luteal phase and now that makes soooo much more sense as to why that happens.
OMG IM SO GLAD THAT YOU'RE BACK. Thank you for always providing us with the best info 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺
Ma'am, you are glowing! Just thought I'd say that as I start playing the video 🤍
you're so sweet, thank you 🥺🙈
I loved her when she said "There's 28 of us, sisters. Everyday is different. "
Ahhh yay! You're truly back on RUclips. Missed your vids and all the inspiration and info that you bring with them ❤️
love this video so much!! please keep these coming, this helped me a lot because i struggle with this like so many other people
Smashed this one as per xx
Thank you Lucy 🥺
it's so hard to eat a balanced diet. i'm constantly stressed, depressed, and anxious and the only thing that makes me happy is good food that has little nutritional value :")
same...i am trying to eat healthy but than i binge on unhealthy food almost every day 'cause i'm really stressed and strugle with depression...
I wish you healing from the stress you dealing and hope thinhlgs get better soon but i have also notinced that unhealthy foods may make us feel good for awhile outside but they do no good to us all and i personally aways feel terrible after eating and sometimes guilty too so lets keep trying and eat food thinking about gut and our brain and something that our body need
Thank you for all of the inspiration Natacha! I have suffered with orthorexia, binge eating and food obsessions in the past and although it can be a struggle sometimes, 10 years on I am 10kg heavier but so much happier! Love from Australia 🇦🇺
The amount of research that she does for these videos is insane! Always very usefull and well explained.
Thanks!
I love science videos!!!! Teach us, wise one ❤
Also, I don't want my vigor affected, I need all the vigor I can get. 😅
hahah saaaaaame on the vigor thing, I like my vigor! 😂I am so so happy you like them, thank you so much for saying!
@@natachaoceane 💖💖💖
I know this account is fully focused on health and fitness and we love it
I would love it if you shared more about your work life though (maybe in this channel or a new one) , productivity, day in the life, ambitions etc
I would really love it
I've just started my masters in clinical psychology and want to eventually specialise in eating patterns and disorders, and I find your science explained videos so interesting. This one in particular has given me quite a few ideas for an upcoming assignment! Glad to have your videos back again 😊
THIS! IS WHAT I WAS WAITING FOR!! I REALLY NEEDED THIS VIDEO!!! MASSIVE THANK YOU NATACHA!! I LOVE YOU SOO MUCH!!!
“don’t do unsolvable math problems” *me, in high school ap calc* 😰😂 *also me, getting 6 and a half hours of sleep* 😫
I know this isn’t the point of your comment and I’m sure you’re doing bomb in calc 😅 but just wanted to let you know ap calc was the only 1 I got on any ap test… then i went on to college and got As in both calc 1&2, and now I’m a graduate student. Just saying I did NOT get it AT ALL in high school but it ending up being okay so don’t get too stressed because you can do it!!!!
@@kaceytalbot5660 that is actually Exactly what i needed to hear rn 😅 thank you so much!
