The Fast Track Researchers' European Vacation

All Fired Up

In 2018, the entire world pushed back against the notorious "Fast Track to Health" trial, a $1.2 million tax payer funded experiment in which Australian teenagers would be subjected to a year of semi starvation. More than 70 years of weight science research unequivocally demonstrates that weight loss dieting doesn't work in the long term, and causes homeostatic damage. We also know that teen dieting, ESPECIALLY severe restriction, is a massive risk factor for disordered eating and eating disorders. Despite valiant attempts by the eating disorders community, and a viral change.org petition pleading for the Fast Track to stop, this brutal research was allowed to continue. 6 years later, the world's slowest Fast Track has reached its bitter end. The Fast Track research team have just sharted out a triumphant press release, and are planning a glitzy trip to Venice, Italy, to present their ASTOUNDING results. Don't miss this episode of All Fired Up, where I unpack this utter sh*tshow. TW: This episode is packed full of weight loss dieting, explicit talk of calories, 'O' words, and EPIC weight loss industry bullsh*t - so please approach with caution !
