We’ve become a bit spoiled in the Paleo and low-carb communities in recent years as more and more resources have become available for us to learn from and and expand our knowledge about these healthy lifestyle changes. But have you stopped to think about the people who don’t speak English as their first language? While there are some, the significant void of an extensive amount of books, blogs and other sources of quality information about primal, Paleo, Weston A. Price, low-carb, real food diets in the Spanish language presents a challenge in reaching those in the Spanish-speaking world.

This didn’t sit too well with a PhD in Physics named Monica Fernandez who became exposed to the Weston A. Price Foundation, Paleo and low-carb message when she worked in the United States for the past few years. But when Monica returned to her home country of Spain, she has been doing her part to bridge the gap between all the great nutritional health information she learned in English and translating it into Spanish on her “Blog Disidente” blog.

Listen to Jimmy and Monica talk about how she began questioning her doctors after watching her cholesterol levels rise while eating a low-fat diet, the side effects she experienced taking medications to deal with her Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS), how a high-fat diet that eliminated grains and sugars healed her body, the work she did while she was living in the United States, some of her personal Paleo, low-carb, real food heroes, why she feels so passionate about bringing the Paleo message to the Spanish-speaking world, her equal passion for bringing non-toxic farming practices to the agricultural community (through Regenerative Agriculture), who her dream interviews would be, the kind of response she has seen so far to her translated information, and much, MUCH more!

Here are some great Spanish-speaking Paleo, real food blogs:
