The Ancestral Blueprint For Modern Health with Ancient and Brave's Head of Nutrition Jo Woodhurst

In my kitchen this week, I am joined by Jo Woodhurst, Head of Nutrition at Ancient + Brave. Jo Woodhurst is a naturopathic registered nutritional therapist known for blending modern science with ancient wisdom. She brings warmth, clarity and depth to the world of nutrition, making complex health topics feel both accessible and inspiring. Since joining Ancient + Brave in its early days, Jo has been instrumental in shaping the brand's mission, helping people understand, trust and integrate its transformative products into everyday life. In this episode, we explore what it truly means to live more ancestrally in our increasingly modern world. While technology has transformed almost every aspect of our lives, our biology has remained largely unchanged. We spend more time indoors than ever before, sit for longer, sleep less, eat highly processed foods and are constantly connected to screens, yet our bodies still crave the rhythms and practices they evolved alongside over thousands of years. Together, we discuss how reconnecting with nature, slowing down, nourishing ourselves with real food, embracing movement and honouring our natural circadian rhythms can help us feel healthier, calmer and more resilient in today's fast-paced world. Whether you're curious about ancestral living or simply looking for practical ways to improve your wellbeing, this conversation is packed with simple, evidence-based habits that can help you reconnect with yourself and the natural world. Topics we discuss are: What living ancestrally actually means How our need for ancestral living is increasing due to the advancements of our modern world How we can adapt ancestral ways into the modern world How a fast paced world doesn't support us The Ancient and Brave products and how they support us True Biome and Gut Health MCT oil and the cognitive benefits Creatine and it's benefits Ancestral Protein and the modern day protein powder The less is more approach Our Sponsors: Healthy Habits - Try mouth tape today and get 20% off your first purchase with code CATCHUPS20 https://www.thehealthyhabits.co.uk/pr...
