As a Dietitian, a part of my job and practice is to provide research backed nutrition interventions.  This episode starts off discussing detox diets (juice cleanses, tonic, elixirs etc) and the evidence (or lack of) to their numerous health claims.  Is it too good to be true? Short answer: yes.

This episode wraps with a topic many of us are accustomed to: the fear of gaining weight.  Why do we have it?  How do we escape it?  Living in a society the idealizes thinness and shames fatness lead us into a mind game we have little control of the outcome (the outcome being your weight).  Learn WHY your weight is pretty much OUT of your control, and how to heal from the inside out.
