If you've been in the wellness space for a while, you've probably tried (or at least heard of) therapeutic diets like Low FODMAP, Gaps, or AIP. These diets, while touted as healing, healthy, and nurturing, almost always have the opposite effect .

Body Building, If It Fits Your Macros, Beach Body, and Weight Watchers are all very different diet and "fitness" lifestyles.

Join us as we discuss the reasons why intermittent fasting has become so popular, why we don't (and never would) recommend it, and our response t...

Growing up around the low-fat craze,  we've all probably tried a low-fat diet. But is it ever a good idea to remove a...

Vegan + vegetarian diets have been popular for years.

We have a lot to say about vegan and vegetarian diets, and some of it might surprise you! At the end of the day, what we'll always recommend is consuming high-quality,...

Paleo and Whole 30 Diets... throwback to 2014, are we right? These diets took the internet and health communities by storm, and probably most of us tried one (or both) when they were popular. While they come off as not as harmful or extreme as some of the other diets we're discussing in this season, we certainly don't think they're harmless. We don't recommend Paleo or Whole 30...

Low Carb, Keto, and Carnivore diets have taken the internet diet industry by storm since about 2017. But are these extreme diets all they're cracked up to be?
