What This Episode Explores
After 40, it’s not just what you eat—it’s when you eat it. In this episode of The Slow Kitchen Podcast, Cat Dillon explores how carb timing impacts midlife energy, mood, blood sugar, and hormone balance. Through real-life examples and gentle guidance, you’ll learn why carbs aren’t the problem, how pairing them with protein and fat creates steadier energy, and how small shifts in timing (including coffee!) can reduce crashes and cravings. This episode offers practical, non-restrictive strategies to help you work with your body’s natural rhythms so meals feel supportive, sustainable, and grounding.
