Then, in the paywalled portion of the interview, we get into her controversial take on how we should approach wellness content on social media, the troubling reason why some people who are skeptical of pseudoscience and the wellness industry are NOT skeptical of diet culture, how people who want to make certain food choices for ethical reasons (like eating fewer animal products) can do that without falling into disordered eating and black-and-white thinking, and more. Paid subscribers can hear the full interview, and the first half is available to all listeners.

Do you remember a specific meal you at as a child?Do you remember how you felt eating it? Why am I asking this?I remember eating perogies, real perogies that my great grandma from Russia made, we were all there, my mom, my grandma, my cousins. When my great grandma passed, my grandma would make them and always say “eat more, eat more, eat more”. Everyone was happy and enjoying a meal together, not to mention a high carb, high fat meal, that I associated with a warm and fuzzy feeling inside.  Did you know most of us have a meal just like this that we go to when we are sad or stressed or feeling down? “To emotionally eat a human condition”-Pixie Turner Pixie is a graceful, kind, intelligent, and very passionate soul who genuinely wants to support others in their own health journey through her years of studying and experience. In this interview we get nerdy and real about how to step away from a diet mentality and into a perspective of food for sustainability. We talk about the evidence of nutrition and the effect food has on the body and what really goes into looking at nutrition research from a critical lens. And my fav part of the interview where we discuss disordered eating and how WE ALL DO IT!! Its HUMAN NATURE! This is why I love science and nerding out, because often you read something and life all makes sense, then you can accept that “wow this is just a part of me being human”! Once we can accept being human, imperfect, and biologically wired a certain way we can move forward and make the changes with grace for ourselves. There is a ton of valuable information in this interview that you do not want to MISS OUT on! Many of us need more Pixie in our life and I am so grateful I have been able to share her with you on this series!CONNECT MORE WITH PIXIE@pixienutritionwww.pixieturnernutrition.com

I had a Soulful one pot West African stew which was fucking delicious you know, if not the most photogenic lunch. I picked her beautiful mind and had a laugh whilst I was at it.

In this episode, I get to have a conversation with the fantastic Pixie Turner, who is a registered nutritionist, trainee psychotherapist, science communicator and author of several brilliant nutrition books. This dual training gives her incredible insight into such topics as emotional eating. A quick google search might convince you that it's the worst thing in the world, but she explains why it's not only completely normal but also pretty amazing! Like any emotional coping mechanism, it has the potential to become maladaptive; Pixie gives some general, practical advice in this situation as well.In the vein of 'Willing To Be Wrong', she also discusses her wellness wanker period (when she used to juice cleanse and believe that dairy leeched calcium from your bones) and what prompted her to escape the dangerous community she found herself in.Pixie can be found both on social media @pixienutrition and co-hosting the podcast, In Bad Taste.-My debut book, Food Isn't Medicine: Challenge Nutribollocks & Escape The Diet Trap, is now available for pre-order online (Amazon, Book Depository, and elsewhere). Do come and join me on social media @drjoshuawolrich.If you enjoyed this episode, please do leave a review!

In this episode with Pixie Turner, we explore how social media and our hyper-connected world is shaping our moral compasses, challenging our beliefs, and affecting who we are at a very fundamental level. As we talk through her latest book, “the Insta-food diet”, we examine the new rules of social media which dictate that we are not what we eat, but rather what others believe we eat, exploring also how to create better boundaries on social media.

In this episode I'm joined by feisty and 100% BS free nutritionist Pixie Turner.Having started her journey as a clean eating food influencer, Pixie soon came to realise that the advice that she was sharing and totally believed in at the time was actually harmful and had no scientific backing. People were blindly following the advice of her and other influencers who had no training in nutrition and were recommending unachievable and sometimes harmful diets and food fads.Pixie turned her back on the influencer world and took it upon herself to train as a nutritionist and the rest is history. She now guides people to have healthy relationships with their food and cuts through much of the(often well-meaning) bullshit that is to be found online.Pixie is so refreshing and outspoken and I know you're going to get a lot out of this interview. I also really recommend her book The Insta-Food Diet.xx

In This episode I talk my my friend Jessie about her journey of discovering and addressing her disordered eating habits after she was diagnosed with thyroid cancer. She talks a lot about intuitive eating and how this has helped her. Here are a list of resources Jessie mentions in the podcast: Books: - Health At Every Size by Linda Bacon - this explains the science of metabolism and weight loss and why diets don't work as well as what diets do to our body on a physiological level. She then spends a lot of time discussing how fat phobia has prevented people in larger bodies receiving proper health care when a lot of their diseases are not even related to their weight - this book BLEW MY MIND! - Intuitive Eating by Evelyn Tribole and Elyse Resch - also comes with a work book and would highly recommend getting both - The 8 Keys to Recovery by Carolyn Costing and Gwen Schubert Grabb - also comes with a work book but I would recommend reading the book first and then doing the workbook. - The Wellness Rebel by Pixie Turner is awesome for myth busting as well as The Angry Chef by Anthony Warner - The Fuck it Diet: Eating should easy by Carolyn Dooner - this book was one of my favs a quick read and so inspiring to stay on the track to having a better relationship with food Podcasts: Food Psych w Christy Harrison Don't Salt My Game w Laura Thomas Body Kindness w Rebecca Scritchfield Instagram: pixie nutrition thefuckitdiet kristamurias yourhappyhealthyrd laurathomasphdevelyntribole

Nutritionist Pixie Turner joins Tally, Zanna and Vic to answer your questions about food and bust some nutrition myths.

Episode Notes Pixie Turner is a passionate advocate for a science-based approach to food and she doesn't forget the importance of it fitting with the rest of our lives: being active, sleep, and our mental health. She has gone from self-declared "wellness w****r" to registered nutritionist with a Masters degree to back it up. We talk about clean eating and the anxiety associated with that pressure. She discusses how a hyper-focus on physical health can often be at the expense of mental health and she tells us how she broke out from the wellness blogging bubble and moved to a different perspective. We have an important discussion about how we define 'plant-based diets' and Pixie points out there's a crucial difference between plant-based and vegan. There is enormous flexibility within plant-based diets and we shouldn't conflate them with veganism. Other areas we delve into include: the importance for healthcare professionals to be 'diet neutral'; eating for aesthetic reasons; why dieting for weight loss is a problem; and food obsession, eating disorders and stigmatisation. Pixie also mentions the importance of psychology and self compassion. It's a fantastic episode covering a lot of ground.

Podcast Promotion I've moved away from most social media but I realise it is still an important part of many people's lives.

We catch up with Pixie Turner who has just released "The No Need to Diet Book". She tells us all about the book, how most people has an unhealthy view on food and how we can become a little more relaxed about this. The book explains the reasons why diets and over exercising don't work; the problems with eating for aesthetic goals; the science behind orthorexia, food anxieties and emotional eating, and other unhealthy habits formed by misinformation.

Jonathan and Chris interview Pixie Turner, a London-based nutritionist who used to be, according to her, a “wellness wanker”. And then she publicly changed her mind about food.   They discuss her formerly obsessive relationship with nutrition; eating for Instagram; the turning point in her life; the vicious Instagram vegan posse; becoming an inadvertent Trojan horse on social media; why wellness mainly targets women; her thoughts on the carnivore diet; the demonization of carbs; orthorexia; Belle Gibson and the Medical Medium; which nutrition books to trust; how to fight misinformation; and why so many of her clients ask her, “Can I eat this?”    LINKS:   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pixienutrition/ Website: http://www.pixieturnernutrition.com Pixie's First Book: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/36272948-the-wellness-rebel?from_search=true Pixie's Second Book (pre-order): https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/40969801-the-no-need-to-diet-book?from_search=true     Theme music: "Troll of the Mountain Swing" by the Underscore Orkestra.   To contribute to The Body of Evidence, go to our Patreon page at: http://www.patreon.com/thebodyofevidence/.

On this week's episode Jelena and Andras interviews British biochemist, nutritionist, blogger, author and public speaker Pixie Turner, to talk about the science-based approach to healthy eating, dietary and lifestyle choices and how she turned from a person suffering from orthorexia to a public figure educating people into following the science instead of falling for popular, but absolutely useless diets.

In this week’s episode of our summer shorts series, Pixie and Laura tackle some myths about carbs, including debunking the one that says that “carbs make you fat” and discussing why this is problematic. In this episode Laura and Pixie discussed: ✨What whole grains are and why we shouldn't sweat eating 'white' grain varieties if we want to ✨Tips for boosting your fibre intake ✨Why carbs don't cause diabetes  ✨That eating a potato is not the same as eating a bowl of sugar   Show Notes {Pixie Turner Nutrition} {Pixie on Instagram | Twitter | Facebook} {The Wellness Rebel} {Ep.71 - But Is It Healthy to Be Fat} {Ep.62 - Overcoming Fat Phobia} {Ep.36 - Challenging the Assumptions of the Weight Normative Paradigm}

In this episode of our summer shorts series, Associate Registered Nutritionist Pixie Turner and Laura sink their teeth into the BBC programme ‘The Big Crash Diet Experiment’. The programme put participants with health conditions on an extremely restrictive very low energy shakes and soup diet.   In this episode Laura and Pixie discuss: ✨The double standard where behaviours that are considered ‘eating disorder behaviours’ in a smaller body are considered healthy and encouraged in someone of a higher weight ✨How programmes like this fail to discuss the importance of mental health ✨The detrimental effects that dieting and fat bias have on people’s health ✨How we can improve our health without going on a restrictive diet   Show Notes {Pixie Turner Nutrition} {Pixie on Instagram | Twitter | Facebook} {Podcast Episode on Food Addiction} {Weight Stigma 101 - The Body is Not an Apology} {The DiRECT Trial}

In the first episode of our summer shorts series, Associate Registered Nutritionist Pixie Turner and I dissect a worrying Cosmo article from the July 2018 issue that feels more like a flashback to the clean eating articles of 2014. The article called 'Choose it or Lose it' promotes unnecessarily restrictive food swaps, demonising perfectly good foods and reads like a 'how to guide to orthorexia'. In this episode we: ✨Discuss why it's unhelpful to focus on the minutiae of detail about nutrition ✨How food rules can lead to and overly restrictive diet and potentially even orthorexia ✨Blow the lid off some nutrition myths ✨How articles like this contribute to food fear Show Notes {Pixie Turner Nutrition} {Pixie on Instagram | Twitter | Facebook} {Refined Sugar Free is Not a Thing} {Coconut Oil is Over} {Can you Boost Your Immune System} {Resources for Orthorexia} {Podcast Episode on Orthorexia} {Social Media and the Rise of Orthorexia} {The Wellness Rebel}

In this episode I am breaking bread with Pixie Turner. Pixie, who goes by the name Plant Based Pixie on social media is a nutritionist registered with the association for nutrition. She can be found across her social channels and often on the news debunking nutritional myths and promoting an evidence-based and balanced approach to nutrition. But it hasn’t always been like that. For around three years Pixie was deep into the very side of wellness that she now tries to protect others from. At the same time she was building a name and a following as a wellness blogger, subscribing to ideas and practices that have no grounding in science despite her background in biochemistry. So how did she get drawn in and, maybe more importantly, how did she get out? In this conversation Pixie tells me her story, in which she describes, amongst other things, the differences between wellness trends in different parts of the world and explains how compelling it is to receive glowing praise from complete strangers.

Episode 110: Welcome back to Real Health Radio. We have another guest interview and this week I’m sitting down with Pixie Turner. Pixie is a nutritionist (ANutr), food blogger, and avid Instagrammer. She graduated with a First Class degree in Biochemistry, and went on to complete a Masters in Nutrition with Distinction. She is the brains behind the […] The post 110: Interview with Pixie Turner appeared first on Seven Health.

About Pixie: My name is Pixie, and I’m a registered associate nutritionist (ANutr) (MSc), award-winning food blogger, writer, and speaker. I eat a plant-based/vegetarian diet, using the scientific definition of plant-based meaning ‘a diet based on plants’, not necessarily a diet solely consisting of plants. This is deliberately vague as I don’t really believe in labeling myself or restricting myself if I want a good old-fashioned burger and fries! Food should not only make you healthy but needs to taste good and make you happy, otherwise what really is the point? My food journey has taken me from stereotypical college student (think frozen ready meals), to cutting out every food group I could think of in a pursuit of health (no meat, fish, eggs, dairy, soy, gluten, refined sugar, or joy), to now having a much more balanced and happy approach to food and health. I am a scientist and a skeptic, so I don’t believe in alternative medicine, or that diet changes can cure everything. That’s just not how the human body works. I do have a passion for helping people to improve their scientific literacy and be more skeptical about the advice circulating online (spoiler alert: 90% of it is BS), and I intend to use it. As a nutritionist, I work with clients on improving their relationships with food using non-diet approaches. I’m an advocate for Health At Every Size, so you won’t find any diet culture crap here.  Pixie Resources: Website: http://www.plantbased-pixie.com/ Cookbook: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Wellness-Rebel-Plantbased-Pixie-ebook/dp/B074H9QLV1/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1509618213&sr=8-1&keywords=the+wellness+rebel Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/plantbased_pixie/ About eMeals: eMeals is America’s leading online meal planning solution.

Since not all of you can come to my talk at Balance Festival this week I wanted to cover some of the concepts of Intuitive Eating in a dedicated episode and I have my girl and friend of the podcast Pixie Turner here to help me. We talk about some of constructs of intuitive eating and the problems with dieting, and how lots of us are stuck in the diet mentality because of diet tools and diet culture. I'm also sharing some tips to help you break out of the diet mentality because without this step, intuitive eating becomes just another diet. 

She's back! Friend of the show Pixie Turner aka Plant Based Pixie is here to tell us about the paper she recently published on the relationship between social media use (specifically Instagram) and orthorexic tendencies. Learn what orthorexia is, how it relates to other eating disorders, the connection to social media, and why it's so tricky to treat and diagnose. We also play a round of SBS, have a LOT to say about scope of practice for professionals (nutrition & otherwise), and generally set the world to rights.

This week I'm joined by special guest host, Pixie Turner aka Plant Based Pixie. We're answering your questions on iron, calcium, and talking about the problem of reducing foods & diets down to their individual components. Plus we get real about what's wrong with 'Sugar Free Feb', how 'eat real' is the new 'eat clean', and stuff that went down at Fare Healthy earlier this month. Plus Pixie has a weird thing with olive oil - check it out!
