Nutrition For Mortals podcast

45:34

More adults in the U.S. are using dietary supplements than ever before. For decades, however, tensions have existed between the U.S. government, supplement manufacturers and consumers who all have different stances around the safety and efficacy of these products. But just how did dietary supplements become so mainstream? And how did such a massive industry largely avoid regulatory oversight? How could the supplement industry be poised to change and what should we think about when choosing dietary supplements? Join us, two Registered Dietitians, for the first of a two part series as we explore the history, questionable practices and pitfalls of the U.S. supplement industry.

“Food Noise” was a relatively unused term until the recent rise of GLP-1RA medications. Now, social media is abuzz with claims of people ridding themselves of their “food noise” and companies are using this language to sell their own compounded GLP-1 drugs. But what is “food noise” really? And should this term only be used by certain people? Is some “food noise” normal or should we be trying to rid ourselves of it entirely? Join us, two Registered Dietitians, as we discuss the different definitions of “food noise” and dig into how to think about this new terminology. Want to support the show and get bonus episodes?

For decades the advice around saturated fat seemed clear: lowering your intake of saturated fat would lower your risk of developing cardiovascular disease. But about a decade ago, things changed. The carnivore diet gained popularity, Time Magazine featured ‘Butter is Back’ on their cover, and social media became awash with influencers claiming that everything we knew about saturated fat was wrong. With all of these opposing views, what does the research actually tell us about saturated fat and heart disease?
