Three Great Health Podcasts

by Jenni in ,


There are quite a few podcasts that have to do with living a healthy life, here are my three favorite podcasts for health. Some of these have more to do with fitness, while others are more about food and recipes. They are all fantastic and range in run times from 3 minutes to over an hour. I love these because I can listen to them while doing work around the house, driving, exercising, or just as a form of relaxation. The best part is that they are free! 

Nutrition Diva

The Nutrition Diva is something great to listen to if you are on the go and do not have much time. Her episodes are less than ten minutes each and give great, quick tips on being healthier. She talks about everything from what is in certain foods to health myths. Her advice is simple ans easy to follow and her knowledge is backed up. What more could we ask for in ten minutes a week?

The Jillian Michaels Show

If you are interested in staying current in the fitness world, this will be your new podcast love. The Jillian Michaels Show is a weekly podcast done with Jillian Michaels (of course) and some of her friends. Jillian is most well known from The Biggest Looser and her workout DVD's. She knows her way around fitness and shares weekly tips with us. The show usually runs between 45 minutes and an hour. Perfect for the commute home.

Vegetarian Food for Thought

Colleen Patrick-Goudreau is the author of many books for vegetarians and vegans. Her podcast is fantastic for those who are already a vegetarian, or are thinking of placing less emphasis on meat in their diet. Every week Colleen goes over questions that vegans and vegetarians have, nutritional tips, animals rights, myths, and health. She loves literature and uses stories, poems, and etymology as a jumping point for her topics. This podcast is one of my favorites in all my podcast line-ups. It is so informative and motivational for anyone wanting to live a compassionate life.
