Healthy Not Complicated

Kait Malthaner (BSc Nutrition and Exercise)

Healthy Not Complicated is a podcast where I step back from nutrition noise and break down buzzing health headlines with clarity and context.

Each episode starts with one timely topic and uses it as a lens to cut through confusion, challenge oversimplified narratives, and explain what actually matters for blood sugar, insulin resistance, and long-term weight loss.

This podcast isn’t about quick fixes, trends, or crash diets. It’s about understanding the truth behind the headlines, so nutrition feels calmer, clearer, and of course, less complicated.

    Sea moss, colostrum, berberine: are they worth it?

    Thank you Sodii for sponsoring this episode! Save 15% off your first order: ⁠https://hckait.com/sodiielectrolytes⁠ Sea moss, colostrum, and berberine are some of the most talked about supplements right now, with claims around gut health, weight loss, blood sugar control, and overall wellness.

    The real reason influencers still promote the carnivore diet (and why I stopped)

    The carnivore diet is taking over social media, promising "magical" results for inflammation, weight loss, and clear skin. But as a nutritionist who was once fully carnivore, I’m sharing an expose on why this radical simplicity often breaks down when it leaves the online bubble and enters the real world. Today, we look at why influencers still promote extreme meat-only diets, and it often has more to do with "the algorithm than long-term metabolic health. We discuss why it works as a short-term elimination diet to reset your insulin sensitivity, but why the mental toll and "white knuckling" makes it unsustainable for the 88% of Americans struggling with metabolic dysfunction.

    Why I stopped intermittent fasting (warning for women)

    For years, I swore by intermittent fasting. I loved the simplicity and the metabolic results, until I realised it wasn't serving my biology anymore, especially as an athlete and a woman. While fasting is a powerful tool for reversing insulin resistance and improving autophagy, there is a massive difference between a clinical "fasting window" and accidental "over-fasting". Today, I’m breaking down the technical nuance of why women respond differently to calorie restriction, how it impacts the thyroid and reproductive signalling, and why I shifted my routine to fuel for performance over rigid schedules.

    The "healthy" rules that kept me sicker

    I followed every "healthy" eating rule the experts gave us: I cut back on red meat, limited my salt, and swapped butter for margarine. The result? My energy crashed, my hormones were all over the place, and I looked as horrible as I felt. Today, I’m walking you through why traditional nutrition advice often leads to chronic fatigue and insulin resistance. We are moving beyond the "low-fat" propaganda of the 80s to look at why your body actually needs saturated fat, the technical truth about dietary cholesterol, and why a "whole foods" framework beats a rigid diet every time.

We’ll cover how alcohol temporarily shuts down fat burning (the number one thing you need to know), lowers testosterone levels, depletes key nutrients like magnesium and B vitamins, and creates toxic byproducts that stress your body.

Save 15% with code HCK15 (worldwide shipping) https://hckait.com/sodiielectrolytes In this episode I share the simple eating routine I personally follow to keep insulin low. This is not about complicated meal plans or strict dieting—it is about using a straightforward framework that keeps blood sugar stable, reduces cravings, and helps reverse insulin resistance. I explain why keeping insulin low matters, not just for people who already have insulin resistance, prediabetes, PCOS, or type 2 diabetes, but also as prevention for those who want to stay healthy long term. You will hear exactly what I eat in a day, how I time my meals, how I handle carbs, and why protein always comes first. I also talk about why protein is critical for muscle and insulin sensitivity, why fiber is helpful but not essential, and how meal timing makes a big difference in lowering insulin. You will learn how to make this routine practical, flexible, and sustainable without needing dozens of recipes or complicated rules.

Salt has been demonized for decades, blamed for high blood pressure and heart disease, but is the science really that simple? In this episode, I break down the real truth about sodium, why it’s an essential electrolyte your body can’t function without, and why many people eating whole foods (especially low carb) might actually need more salt, not less. We’ll cover the history of how salt got its bad reputation, the difference between short-term blood pressure spikes and long-term effects (hint: exercise does the same thing), and Dr. James DiNicolantonio’s research on why sodium is crucial for health.
