Debunking Diet Culture, Why Intuitive Eating Isn't For Most, & Why it's Okay to Want to Lose Weight with Michelle Shapiro | Episode 126
Show Notes

"Replacing gluten with whole food carbs is NOT restriction. Not one nutrient is being restricted. You don't have to eat every single food created in the American food processing landscape in order to not have disordered eating." - Michelle Shapiro

TODAY'S SPONSOR:

GOOD IDEA is my new favorite blood sugar-stabilizing sparkling water that combines a blend of amino acids, chromium and electrolytes to help reduce the blood sugar responses at meals. I love having one in my car or bringing one with me to events and social gatherings where I can’t control the menu or I know I’m going to eat something with carbs. (Much tastier, more portable and socially acceptable than Apple Cider Vinegar! 😂)  Use code DANIHEALTH for 10% off your GOOD IDEA order!
