Are you over it all? Are you tired of trying to be healthy?It’s very common to become fatigued from frequently cycling on and off fad diets. To constantly wish for change in yourself and then never properly achieve it is probably one of the most frustrating elements of being human.

In this episode I chat to dietitian Natasha Ness, from The Healthy Eating Clinic, all about social media influencers and the effect they have on our health.Social media influencers have a lot to answer for when it comes to providing inaccurate and unwelcome dietary advice. Across social media, unqualified influencers are competing to achieve health and well-being guru status. Fitness programs, nutrition products, affiliate programs and marketing; these are all common ways for influencers to share dodgy information. As a result, we often find ourselves influenced, in one way or another, by these individuals, whether it is at a conscious level or not. With such huge growth in the health and well-being content on social media comes an increase in comparing ourselves to others. Comparison, like this, can often have negative impacts on our body image, eating patterns, and our overall perception of ourselves.Life's too short to live with food stress, to become a habit builder and not a crash dieter check out Kate's course at Healthy Eating HubRead Natasha’s article Hosted on Acast.

Throwing around the line ‘sweet poison’ in regard to sugar has become confusing for many people. Why? Because sugar is in nearly every single type of food. And many of these foods should be included in your diet every single day. If you want to truly be ‘sugar free’ then you’d need to eat only chicken, meat, fish and oil.

Constipation, for one thing, would be a problem, and it’s also distinctly lacking in a handful of key nutrients.In this episode, I want to chat through WHY qualified nutritionists and dietitians don’t recommend going ‘sugar free’.Life's too short to live with food stress, to become a habit builder and not a crash dieter check out Kate's course at Healthy Eating Hub The Healthy Eating Hub’s online program:https://healthyeatinghub.com.au The Healthy Eating Clinic dietitians:https://healthyeatingclinic.com.au Hosted on Acast.

There will be no scaremongering, telling you how evil it is (it’s not evil) or guilting you by going into detail about the poor health outcomes that occur from consuming too much.At the end of the day, sugary foods are just food. They hold no moral value. They don’t determine your worth and value as a human being. They provide your body with energy, albeit with little nutrients along with it and they can be easy to overeat. Simple as that.
