S1E8 The Damaging Effects of Dieting & Ditching Diet Culture

Are you a serial dieter? Have you tried “every diet” but each one has somehow failed you? Do you want to end the emotional eating, the toxic shame and harmful guilt? Diet culture tells us weight is a behaviour, that it is all down to us as individuals, but diet culture is not accounting for systems and structures that are entrenched in our society!

In this episode, I sit down with Melissa Eaton, a non-diet Dietitian & Nutritionist, PhD student, and former teacher and dancer from Sydney, Australia. We discuss how nutrition is more than just calories, why the language we use around food is SO important and the fu**ed up messages diet culture feeds us everyday of our lives., as well as dispelling some confusing nutrition advice! This is such an incredible chat, with so many important messages to be heard.
