Turtle Creek Lane: Recent Episodes
Jennifer Houghton
The Official Turtle Creek Lane Podcast, where we talk about Family, Decor, Health, and whatever else we feel like :)
Every time we swallow food, our body makes a decision about what to do with those calories.
Your body chooses to either:
- Store the calories as fat
- Burn the calories as energy
Have you ever wondered how your body makes that decision?
In this episode, Dr. Bikman and I answer this question and talk about all things human metabolism. We discuss:
- How our bodies decide what to do with the food we eat (burn as energy, or store as fat)
- What types of food send the message "store fat" and what foods send the message "burn fat"
- How insulin works in our bodies
- Our family's new favorite food product, and why we LOVE it
- If sweeteners are okay, and if so, which ones to use and which ones to avoid
- How insulin plays a role in the transmission of COVID 19
- What Dr. Bikman and I eat, and what we feed our families and kids
- Dr. Bikman's new book "Why We Get Sick"
- And SO MUCH MORE!
