In Episode 623 of ?The Livin? La Vida Low-Carb Show with Jimmy Moore,? we bring to you a nutrition-minded physical therapist and Whole9 nutrition consultant named Ann Wendel. Now you might be wondering what exactly a physical therapist has to do with Paleo nutrition. But for Ann Wendel from Prana Physical Therapy in Alexandria, Virginia, dietary choices that mimic the principles of our Paleolithic ancestors are an integral part of the healing process she provides to her clients.

In May 2012, she joined the Consulting Team of Whole9 Life (featuring former podcast guests Dallas & Melissa Hartwig) where she offers Wellness and Nutrition consultations via face-to-face, phone, email and Skype appointments to people interested in changing their life nutritionally. Listen in as Ann and I talk about the alternative health methodologies she uses to help her physical therapy patients, what she REALLY thinks about the role of CrossFit exercise in the Paleo community and how Paleo fits into the overall health equation. ENJOY!

Listen to Ann Wendel share how Paleo fits into her practice:

She was a high school swimmer with lots of ?overtraining?

Frequent injuries led her to be interested in rehabilitation

She discovered Paleo after getting sick in 2005

Lots of ?weird symptoms? led her to a Hashimoto?s diagnosis

She ?stumbled? on to Mark Sisson, Robb Wolf, and the Hartwigs

Why people with autoimmune issues don?t recognize it

When people get diagnosed with something, that?s what they are

Christine was diagnosed with fibromyalgia, but got off drugs

People with diagnosed diseases are the hardest to reach

When you become ?sick enough? then you?ll seek changes

What?s the risk of trying Paleo for 30 days?

Getting people to do the ?buy-in? is tough sometimes

If you don?t think you?re addicted, get off sugar/grains

Read The Compass of Pleasure to learn about addiction

Your body can withdraw from sugar like an opiate withdrawal

She?s a great example with ?credibility? with her clients

Feeling bad slowly starts to feel ?normal? to most people

When you make nutritional changes, you see how to feel right

What her clients think about her talking about nutrition

People are surprised and she talks differently with clients

She mentions Paleo principles from session to session

She knows ?not to hit people over the head with? Paleo

Helping them understand how it can help get them out of pain

Physical therapists spend the most time with their patients

She sees her clients several hours a week, gets to know them

This gives her time to educate clients as a captive audience

Most people don?t know what physical therapists actually do

PTs do wellness and are more than just treating acute injury

Patients have direct access to PTs without a doctor

Physical therapists know more about ?evaluating movement?

Physicians don?t watch you walk, but PTs do and respond to it

What her thoughts are about the CrossFit movement in Paleo

People should ?use common sense? and rest when you have pain

The ?weak link? in lifting heavy weights is your back

Might be a good idea to ?work up? to a CrossFit program

People with autoimmune issues can hurt themselves pushing hard

No pain, no gain is INSANE!

What she does as part of the Whole9 team

She serves as a consultant providing nutrition/health info

Getting personalized information about healthy living

The questionnaire she has clients fill out to assess life

It?s a ?long? survey, but this is ?way more than just food?

She hails from the Washington, DC area with lots of stress

The traffic in DC is stressful to the people living there

People there put in long hours, travel frequently

Many of her DC clients are open to the ideas she shares

Her chapter in Peggy Emch?s new book project

JOIN US ON THE ?ASK THE LOW-CARB EXPERTS? PODCAST THIS WEEK: Coming up in Episode 30 of ?Ask The Low-Carb Experts? on Thursday, October 11, 2012 at 7PM ET, we?ll have a Brooklyn, NY-based SUNY Downstate biochemistry professor and the founder of The Nutrition & Metabolism Society named Dr. Richard Feinman joining us to talk about the hot topic ?Getting Low-Carb To Join The Scientific Mainstream.? In recent years, we?ve seen a lot of momentum happening within the scientific realm towards carbohydrate restriction that could quite possibly be the beginning of the next low-carb revolution. There?s a plethora of quality research being conducted out there on carbohydrate-restricted diets on a variety of fronts from metabolic syndrome to epilepsy to cancer. But unfortunately these research projects for the most part are not being funded by major funding sources like the National Institutes for Health or other key sources. So how do we get low-carb to join the scientific mainstream so that more investigation can be done into the veracity of this way of eating? That?s what we?ll be exploring in this week?s show. Start getting me your questions NOW regarding getting the low-carb research into the scientific mainstream for me to ask Dr. Richard Feinman by e-mailing them to AskTheLowCarbExperts@gmail.com no later than 3PM ET on the date the podcast airs.
