The Shift Health Coach
For health coaches who are ready to broaden their perspective as a coach/entrepreneur or a shift worker who is tired of health information not fitting their lifestyle. This podcast is for you.

25% of the workforce is shift workers
40% increase in cardiovascular issues for those who work shifts
60% increase in metabolic issues for shift workers.

The Shift Health Coach
Rant on sugar, glucose and maple syrup
Sugar is not a health food yet I often hear people alter recipes with honey or maple syrup like adding in those "natural" sugars suddenly make brownies healthy. In this episode, we breakdown sugar, what is glucose vs fructose, glycemic index and answer the question "Is maple syrup and honey healthy?".
