5 Things You’ll Never Hear a Dietitian Say
Notas do episódio
There’s no shortage of nutrition advice online - but not all of it comes from people with the training to be prescribing diets.
In this episode of Diet Notes, Susie takes a slightly tongue-in-cheek look at five popular nutrition recommendations that you’re very unlikely to hear from a qualified dietitian.
From extremely low-calorie diets and expensive greens powders to cutting out gluten and dairy, protein bars and the idea of “cleansing” your liver, Susie explains why these approaches deserve a little more scrutiny - and why context and individual needs matter when it comes to nutrition advice.
In this episode:
- Why 800-calorie diets aren’t an appropriate everyday weight-loss strategy
- The health halo surrounding greens powders
- Why eliminating gluten or dairy shouldn’t be a blanket recommendation
- Whether protein bars are really as healthy as their marketing suggests
- Why your liver doesn’t need a “cleanse”
- The importance of evidence-based, individualised nutrition advice
A practical look at some of the nutrition trends Susie continues to see crossing her path in clinic - and why a qualified dietitian may take a very different view.
