We did it, we watched The Goop Lab.

It’s the last episode of our ‘Fed Up’ before we move on to our next victim. The film loves to paint the food industry as the bad guy in all of this.

We’re back with ‘Fed Up’ and this week, we’re talking about fat. Because this film has some pretty strong opinions on this - some, they have a point but some are downright daft. And of course we have some pretty strong points (and science) of our own to separate fact from fiction.Follow Pixie Turner @pixienutrition on Instagram | Twitter | FacebookFollow Dr Nikki Stamp @drnikkistamp on Instagram | Twitter | FacebookEmail us with your questions inbadtastepodcast@gmail.com Please don’t forget to give us a 5-star rating to help others find us Production music courtesy of www.epidemicsound.com(Theme song is ‘Rookie Mistake’ by Fly Guy Five)Cover art is by Fine Print Food - @fineprintfoodThis week’s suggested readings:Nikki’s books:Pretty Unhealthy: How our obsession with looking healthy is making us sickhttps://amzn.to/3fP1456 Can You Die of a Broken Heart? https://amzn.to/3hW8khv Pixie’s books:No Need to Diet - https://amzn.to/37WKkGz The Wellness Rebel - https://amzn.to/2CAHECO Insta-Food Diet (Pre-order) - https://amzn.to/2NowkvB References:Lozano-Sufrategui, L., Sparkes, A.
