Show Notes

In this episode, Michelle and Nicki are back with a (slightly controversial) episode to wrap up the season 😬 They’re getting into the issues with the current landscape of social media, why you see conflicting nutrition information, and how exactly to decipher it all! 

They discuss: 

  • The issues with HAES, Intuitive Eating, Conventional Nutrition, AND Holistic nutrition accounts on social media
  • Nutritionism - what is it & why is it a problem? 
  • Why all foods do NOT fit 
  • How to sift through the noise on social media 
  • Supplement ads - yes or no? 


Subscribe to get your weekly dose of NYC-style-sarcasm, nutritional nuance and messages of healing.
