Do you wish you could lose your belly fat for good and fit into your favourite clothes better? Do you want to reduce your appetite and kill carb cravings? Do you long for more energy throughout the day to play with your grandkids, keep your home in order, serve in your ministry AND have time for prayer? Do you want to detox and heal to become stronger in your walk with the Lord?
My mission in this podcast is to help Christians who desire a full and fruitful life in the Lord to reclaim their energy, refine their body and restore their health, so they can live more fully in their God-given power.
Hi, I’m Laura Hargrave (formerly Rimmer). A Christian, Master Certified Nutritionist & Best-Selling Author. For over 25 years I’ve studied the science of weight loss and natural healing, and coached thousands of people to better health.
I went from overweight smoker at university, to wearing myself out as a vegan ultra-marathon runner in my 30s, to finally listening to God’s wisdom for health and becoming truly vibrant and lean in my late 40s with low carb and keto, and a ‘less is more’ Biblical approach.
Friend, I made it through all the mistakes and deceptions out there and have finally found peaceful, joyful, easeful health - in body, mind and spirit and that’s what I’ll share with you in this podcast.
So take a few moments now to grow in your knowledge & wisdom, to benefit you for years to come. Welcome to Health in Faith!

Do you find yourself constantly snacking, even when you know you’ve eaten enough? Are you frustrated by cravings that seem impossible to control, no matter how hard you try? Have you ever wondered if there are truly healthy, natural foods that can help you feel satisfied and honour God with your eating habits?
In this episode, I’m sharing seven science-backed natural hunger suppressant foods—plus biblical wisdom on moderation and self-control—so you can finally experience lasting satisfaction, curb overeating, and walk in greater freedom with your health. We’ll dive into the unique ways foods like avocado, eggs, boiled potatoes, Greek yogurt, and others work to control appetite, balance blood sugar, and support your body as God’s temple.
This episode will speak to you if you’ve ever felt stuck in a cycle of cravings or emotional eating and wants both practical and spiritual tools for transformation.

Feeling weighed down by stress, pressure, or emotional baggage that just won’t shift?
Noticing your health, energy, or metabolism suffering because you’re constantly “holding it together”?
Wondering if God ever meant you to carry this much — physically, emotionally, and spiritually?
In this episode, I’m sharing in a prophetic way (as the Lord has shown me over a number of years), how unresolved stress, emotional weight, and spiritual overload quietly sabotage your health — and why letting go is not weakness, but biblical obedience. We explore what Scripture actually says about releasing burdens, how chronic stress impacts your hormones, metabolism, and nervous system, and practical, faith-rooted ways Christians can lighten their load without guilt.
This episode is for believers who love God deeply but often feel tired, overwhelmed, stuck in survival mode, or disconnected from joy in their bodies and lives. You’ll learn how surrendering stress aligns with God’s design for health, why peace is protective, and how small daily acts of release can restore energy, clarity, and spiritual intimacy.
If you’ve been carrying more than God ever asked you to, this conversation will help you lay it down — and walk lighter.

- Do you end up feeling confused every time new dietary guidelines are released?
- Wondering whether government nutrition advice actually aligns with how God designed the body?
- Are you trying to honour God with your health but feeling stuck between science, Scripture, and food fear?
In episode 25, we take a discerning, faith-filled look at the Dietary American Guidelines 2026 and ask an important question Christians rarely pause to consider: Are these recommendations moving us closer to — or further from — biblical metabolic health wisdom?
I break down what the guidelines get right, where they still fall short metabolically, and how believers can apply them wisely without guilt, legalism, or confusion. We explore protein, carbohydrates, fasting, metabolic dysfunction, and stewardship — all through the lens of Scripture, sound nutrition science, and real-life application — so you can make confident, God-honouring food decisions that actually support your health.

Do you wake up already tired — and feel hungry again just an hour or two after breakfast?
Do you rely on coffee, cereal, toast, or smoothies to ‘get you going’, only to crash mid-morning?
Have you ever wondered whether the way you eat breakfast could actually support (or sabotage) your energy, metabolism, and Christian walk?
In this episode of Health in Faith, I’m unpacking why breakfast matters far more than most Christians realise — and why a high protein breakfast is one of the simplest, most God-designed ways to move from sugar crashes to real, sustainable strength.
We’ll look at how God designed your metabolism to work in the morning, why blood sugar stability matters for focus, mood, and self-control, and how modern ‘breakfast foods’ often work against your body rather than with it. I’ll also take you to a beautiful moment in Scripture where Jesus Himself cooks breakfast for His disciples — and why that moment is deeply relevant to how we nourish our bodies today.
If you’re a Christian woman who wants better energy, fewer cravings, improved metabolic health, and a calmer, more focused start to the day — without dieting extremes — this episode will give you practical wisdom you can apply immediately.

- Are you wondering if counting calories feels too ‘mechanical’ or unspiritual?
- Unsure if tracking your food is legalistic or faith-driven?
- Struggling to lose weight despite your best efforts and looking for a practical, God-honouring approach?
In episode 23, I’m sharing how Christians can approach weight loss through a calorie deficit in a faith-centred way, so you can honour God while achieving real results. We’ll dive into why calories are part of the laws of thermodynamics and God’s design, why tracking can be a wise tool (just like learning to drive a car or count steps in dance), and how counting calories and macros can help you understand your body — at least at the beginning of your weight loss journey. By the end, you’ll know how to integrate structure and freedom, stewardship and science, to lose weight without guilt or legalism.

Feeling frustrated that you’re exercising regularly but the weight still won’t shift?
Wondering why intense workouts leave you exhausted, inflamed, or craving sugar instead of leaner and energised?
Ever questioned whether the way you’re moving your body is actually helping—or quietly harming—your metabolism and hormones?
In this episode, I’m sharing the 5 fat-burning exercises God designed to naturally boost your metabolism so you can lose weight without burnout, obsession, or overtraining. This episode is for Christian women who want sustainable fat loss, better energy, and a peaceful relationship with movement. You’ll learn why walking, strength training, strategic intensity, and rest work together to activate fat burning, lower stress hormones, and support the body God entrusted to you. This is about exercising with wisdom, stewardship, and faith—not punishment.

Do you feel like your metabolism is slowing down no matter how “healthy” you eat?
Are you constantly hungry, snacking between meals, or relying on coffee to keep your energy up?
Have you been told to eat less and move more — yet your body feels more resistant than ever?
In this episode, I’m sharing five simple, science-backed ways to improve your metabolic rate and restore metabolic flexibility — so you can experience steadier energy, fewer cravings, and greater freedom around food without extremes or burnout.
We’ll talk about why constant snacking actually slows your metabolism, how gentle intermittent fasting can restore insulin sensitivity, why walking at the right times matters more than intense workouts, and how dietary fats and lower-carb eating support God’s design for energy balance. I’ll also clarify where keto can be a helpful tool — and where it doesn’t need to be permanent.
This episode is especially for Christian women who feel stuck in their bodies and want a faith-aligned, sustainable approach to metabolic health rooted in wisdom, stewardship, and simplicity.

Do you feel tired between meals, reliant on snacks or coffee just to get through the day?
Do you struggle with cravings, mood swings, or low energy and quietly wonder why self-control feels so hard?
Have you ever considered that your physical energy levels might be impacting your patience, focus, and spiritual stamina?
In this episode, I’m sharing what metabolic flexibility really is and why it matters far beyond weight loss — so you can reclaim steady energy, reduce food obsession, and walk out your Christian life with greater clarity, endurance, and peace.
Metabolic flexibility is your body’s God-designed ability to switch between burning sugar and fat for fuel. When this system is impaired, it can lead to constant hunger, emotional eating, fatigue, and mental fog — all of which quietly affect how we show up in prayer, service, and obedience. Today we explore how faith and science beautifully align, why this isn’t a discipline issue, and how restoring your metabolism can support true freedom in both body and spirit.
