Why You Should Change Your Diet With The Seasons with Dallas Hartwig

Is it time we relearned to live in sync with the natural world? My
guest this week asserts that, instead of sticking to the same habits and
behaviours, year round, we should change with the seasons, as our ancestors
did. Dallas Hartwig, co-author of The Whole-30 and nutritionist explains that
how we eat, sleep, exercise and connect to the world in January should be
different to how we do those things in July. It makes sense, doesn’t it?
Intuitively, that sounds right. Yet how many of us consciously live by this,
and allow ourselves to feel differently and act differently according to the
season?

In his new book, The Four Season Solution, Dallas
theorises that our disconnection from our natural cycles is at the core
of the modern-day stress epidemic and most chronic disease. We wake before
dawn, stay up long after dusk, live with artificial lighting, heating and air
con. We eat unseasonal food, flown across the globe, and use stimulants like
sugar, caffeine and alcohol, which further disrupt our circadian rhythms.
During our chat, Dallas shares some game-changing ideas that I think explain
lots of the current debates in nutrition, fitness and wellness – especially
when it comes to explaining why different diets work for different people, and
at different times. This is an eye-opening conversation that will really make
you re-assess your lifestyle – I hope you enjoy it!
