We have more health information available to us than ever before, and somehow people are more confused than they have ever been.

Amanda, Chris (PhD exercise science), and Jess Gordon get into why nutrition and fitness misinformation spreads so easily, what makes it so believable, and how to build a better filter without getting an advanced degree. They cover why "doing your own research" on PubMed can actually give you a false sense of confidence, why simplicity almost always beats truth online, how fear and urgency get used to sell you things, and the specific red flags that should turn your BS meter on. Blue check marks, letters behind a name, always and never statements, and the toxic ingredient headlines that make everyone clutch their pearls.

Nobody here is telling you to stop learning online. They are just handing you a sharper filter for what you find!

Diet trends are not going anywhere, and neither is our need to talk about them.

Morgan, Krissy, and Jess break down the psychology behind why people keep falling for it, then get into the actual science behind keto, carnivore, paleo, intermittent fasting, and GLP-1 medications. Plus a cheat code for evaluating any diet, including the next trendy one that hasn't been invented yet.

The truth is most of these diets are just recycled versions of the same few ideas… repackaged, renamed, and sold to you with really convincing anecdotal evidence.
