Have you ever felt like your mood, focus, and energy are all over the place, and you cannot quite figure out why? It can be frustrating when you are doing your best with healthy eating, but something still feels off mentally and physically. A lot of the advice out there focuses on cutting things out, following strict plans, or chasing the latest supplement trend. But what if supporting your brain health started with adding more of what your body actually needs instead of taking things away? In this episode, Amanda Ashcraft and Ann Kent, co-authors of The Brain Plate, dive into how nutritional science influences food, mood, and behavior. They discuss the gut-brain connection, the importance of balancing blood sugar for sustained energy, and how fueling your body properly supports both mental and physical well-being. We also touch on supplement safety, dive into what supplement facts really mean, and share a grounded approach to nourishing your body without the confusion of trends. In this episode, you'll discover: How fueling your body properly supports cognitive function, especially with carbohydrates Why intuitive eating is essential to rebuilding trust with your body and hunger cues How to think about ADHD support in ways that make mealtime easier Simple, sustainable approaches to midlife nutrition without restrictive diets What to prioritize before adding supplements, and how to figure out what your body really needs If you're trying to better understand your energy, mood, or focus, this episode gives you practical advice on how to nourish your body and mind for lasting health.

Ever feel like the number on the scale determines whether it's a good or bad day? You're not alone. While the scale is just a tool, for a lot of us, it has become the thing that decides how the whole day goes. That kind of hold does not come from nowhere. It builds over years of being taught that the number means something about you, your discipline, your worth, your right to feel good in your own skin. In this episode, we'll put into light a conversation most women have only in their heads and would never say out loud. We get into how a better body image IS possible even when scale anxiety is high, and how the SHIFT framework can play a role in helping you promote a better relationship with yourself and your body. In this episode, you'll learn: How to get over your scale obsession by identifying the story you carry every time you step on the scale Why how you feel seconds after seeing that number influences your mood and daily choices more than you think and how to take back control How to use the SHIFT framework to rebuild your self worth, eliminate scale anxiety and improve the relationship with your body What body acceptance can look like when loving your body is not yet on the table How to set small, tangible goals that make healing feel less overwhelming Why weight fluctuations are not a verdict on who you are What to do when you don't know how to stop weighing yourself and what to do instead How the most challenging parts of this healing process are signs of positive changes This conversation doesn't  pretend that body acceptance and healing your self worth is a straight line. So, if you're ready for something more honest and grounded, we invite you to step into this episode before stepping back on that scale Let's rebrand wellness together!

In episode 137 of The Eat for Endurance Podcast, I'm joined by Sports Dietitian Kylee Van Horn, RDN for a deep dive into one of the most common (and frustrating) challenges endurance athletes face… GI issues.From nausea and vomiting to bloating, cramping, and diarrhea, GI symptoms can seriously impact training, racing, and confidence around fueling. The tricky part? It's usually not just one thing causing the problem.Kylee and I discuss:Why GI issues are so common during endurance exerciseThe difference between upper vs. lower GI symptomsWhy you may need to stop blaming the gelsCommon fueling and hydration mistakes that contribute to GI distressThe role of underfueling and low energy availabilityGut training and improving carb tolerance during exerciseFueling considerations for marathons, triathlons, and ultrasWhen GI symptoms may warrant further medical evaluationWhile GI challenges are common in endurance athletes, they are not something you just have to accept as “normal.” With the right strategy, support, and a bit of troubleshooting, most athletes can significantly improve their symptoms.

Do you stare into your refrigerator every night at 6:00 PM, wondering what to feed your family? What sounds simple can quickly feel heavy when you are trying to make good choices, manage a busy schedule, and feed a family with different needs. In this episode, we explore the hidden stress of dinner planning, especially for parents managing picky eaters and the constant pressure to create balanced meals with the right protein-carb combinations and healthy fats.  We also share ways to make things easier. From building a list of core meals to using a cycle menu, doing a pantry audit, and thinking about the division of feeding responsibility, the focus is on lowering kitchen stress with practical systems that actually fit real life. In this conversation, we cover: How to repurpose one cooked component into multiple different meals throughout the week. Why decision fatigue makes meal planning harder than it needs to be Ways these systems can simplify simple family dinners How a recipe club can help reduce the mental load of daily food choices Sometimes the hardest part is not cooking the meal. It is carrying the weight of deciding, again and again, what feeding your family is supposed to look like. Let's rebrand wellness together! Elizabeth, Tara & Maria   Connect with us!

Our life scars often come from the moments we never expected, parental divorce, friendship loss, grief, betrayal, and the experiences that quietly reshape us over time.  What if those painful chapters are not proof that something is wrong with you, but part of your life resume, a reflection of everything you have survived along the way? What if they speak to your strength and your ability to keep moving forward? We explore how difficult experiences become part of who we are, and how healing can begin when we stop pretending we are untouched by them. We talk about the power of naming our wounds, the role of an inner circle during hard seasons, and why emotional resilience is not about avoiding pain but learning how to carry it with compassion. The conversation also touches on coping with infant loss, healing from betrayal, and the lasting impact these experiences can have on personal growth. In this episode, you'll discover: How vulnerability strength can help you feel more supported, seen, and connected. What grief recovery can teach us about survival, healing, and self-compassion. Why daily habits can make hard seasons easier to navigate with more steadiness. How sharing your story with trusted people can create space for healing. Why viewing your past through a more compassionate lens can change how you see yourself. Let this conversation be a reminder that healing does not erase your story. It only helps you carry it with more grace. Let's rebrand wellness together! Elizabeth, Tara & Maria Connect with us!

Recently I wrote about research around GLP-1s and nutritional deficiencies. In summary, we looked at a study that showed that most of the clinical trials aren't studying this at all, and that when studies do consider this there are concerning findings, and, finally, the implications of all this.I was recently contacted by a Chicago-area private practice dietitian (MS, RDN, LDN) who had, in fact, written a letter to the editor of the journal that published one of the articles I looked at in Part 2, Malnutrition is Common in Patients Utilizing Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Agonists Prior to Total Joint Arthroplasty, published in the journal Arthroplasty Today. The letter made important points about the study itself (including the lack of a Registered Dietitian among the authors) as well as issues with the measures chosen and more.This is where I would link to the published letter, except that it's not published. It was rejected, not on the merits of its arguments, but with a single sentence:“We appreciate your letter to the editor but I am not sure that we typically have registered dietician [sic] comment or collaborate on our research."

The fitness industry often suggests that if you're not gasping for breath and drenched in sweat, your activity doesn't count.  But what if progress lies in the moments when you're resting, not pushing beyond your limits? "More" isn't always better, so how do we separate the hype from the science behind HIIT? In this episode, we will guide you through the realities of interval training, debunk some common myths, and show you how to use it effectively for your health. We discuss how the fitness world has tweaked the original concept of HIIT, making people feel they need to work harder with less rest. Tara explains how exercise intensity affects your body, why your heart and lungs need recovery time to benefit from a sprint, and why she includes strength training in her classes. We also dive into focusing on body movement without falling into diet culture's pressures. You'll discover: Why HIIT benefits are best achieved through short bursts of intensity rather than long, exhausting sessions. How to distinguish between aerobic and anaerobic movement to maximize your metabolic effect. What to look for in active recovery and rest periods to strengthen your heart and lungs. Why workout consistency matters more than chasing fitness trends, especially when you're under stress. Take this opportunity to redefine your relationship with intensity and boost your cardiovascular health while improving your physical activity level. Let's rebrand wellness together!

In today's episode, I chat with Leslie Schilling, a registered dietitian who specializes in working with athletes and disordered eating, about what it looks like when our relationship with exercise is no longer healthy. We get into so much, including:- what exercise dependence actually means (and why it's often missed)- why it's not about quantity—but compulsion, rigidity, and fear- the overlap between exercise dependence and eating disorders- signs your relationship with exercise might need support- why rest days can feel so distressing- exercise as a coping mechanism for anxiety, stress, and discomfort- the subtle difference between: “I want to move” vs. “I have to move”- how body image, food rules, and weight concerns drive compulsive movement- why most people are under-fueling (even when they don't realize it)- “if you fuel it, you can do it”—and what happens when you don'tAbout Leslie: Leslie Schilling, MA, RDN, CSCS, CEDS-C, owns a Las Vegas-based private practice specializing in nutrition counseling for disordered eating and performance nutrition for professional athletes, performers, and military personnel.

Most women in perimenopause assume their energy crash is a sleep or a stress problem. Jen Scheinman, Head of Nutrition Affairs at Timeline, explains what the real reason is, and why estrogen loss makes it dramatically worse for women than men. If you have been doing everything right and still feel like you are running on empty, this episode explains what is actually happening at the cellular level, and what women in midlife can do about it. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN • Why women's energy levels drop faster in perimenopause? • When does mitochondrial decline start and how fast does it progress? • What is Urolithin A and why can't you get enough from food? • What is mitophagy and why does it matter for energy after 40? • Does Urolithin A build new mitochondria or just clear out damaged ones? • What is the right dose of Urolithin A and does timing matter? • Can Urolithin A reduce fine lines and improve skin in perimenopause? • What does the research say about Urolithin A and immune aging? • Should you take Urolithin A as a supplement and use it topically? • Can Urolithin A help with brain fog after 40? VALUABLE RESOURCES • Take the BioSyncing Quiz to help you understand what's actually happening in your body — and how to fix it.

Eating disorders in midlife are increasing, yet they are often missed, misunderstood, or dismissed as “normal” aging concerns. During midlife, many people notice a sudden intensification of food struggles, body dissatisfaction, and eating disorder symptoms such as restriction, binge eating, or food anxiety. This is not random. It is the result of a powerful intersection between ageism, diet culture, and midlife body changes. In this episode, I sit down with Deb Benfield, RDN (@agingbodyliberation), to break down why eating disorders can become more complex during midlife and how pressure to stay thin and young directly fuels disordered eating patterns and recovery challenges. Ageism, Body Image, & Diet Culture in Midlife Ageism and diet culture work together to shape body image and eating behaviors in midlife. During this stage of life, messaging around anti-aging, weight loss, and “fixing” your body becomes louder and more targeted. Cultural narratives reinforce that thinness and youth equal worth, increasing body dissatisfaction and pressure to control food, weight, and appearance. During this conversation, we explore how diet culture does not fade with age. It adapts. Wellness culture, anti-aging industries, and weight-focused health messaging continue to position the body as a problem. This environment can intensify eating disorder symptoms, especially for those with a history of dieting, binge eating, restriction, or ARFID. Midlife Body Changes, Menopause & Eating Disorder Triggers Midlife body changes, including perimenopause and menopause, can act as major triggers for eating disorders. Hormonal shifts, metabolism changes, and body composition changes often occur outside of personal control, which can feel destabilizing and distressing. During midlife, messaging about menopause, weight gain, and “optimal health” often promotes restriction, rigid eating rules, and increased exercise. These approaches can worsen eating disorder symptoms and create more disconnection from hunger, fullness, and body cues. We discuss how these pressures contribute to food anxiety, body monitoring, and difficulty trusting your body during eating disorder recovery. The Pressure to Stay Thin & Young in Midlife The pressure to stay thin and young intensifies during midlife and is reinforced through diet culture, wellness culture, and anti-aging messaging. From weight loss interventions to GLP-1 medications to strict health routines, the message is clear: your body must be controlled to remain acceptable. Deb invites us to ask a critical question: who benefits from your fear of aging and body change? When fear drives behavior, it becomes easier to stay stuck in cycles of restriction, binge eating, or compulsive movement. This section explores how fear-based messaging disrupts body trust and reinforces eating disorder patterns. Body Image, Identity & Eating Disorders in Midlife Body image in midlife is deeply connected to identity, belonging, and perceived social value. During this stage, changes in appearance can feel like a loss of visibility or relevance in a culture that prioritizes youth and thinness. This can lead to increased body monitoring, comparison, and attempts to control weight or shape. We also explore how intersectionality shapes eating disorder experiences. Factors such as race, body size, disability, gender identity, and neurodivergence can amplify pressure and marginalization. Eating disorders in midlife are influenced by these broader systems, which affect access to care, safety, and support. Eating Disorder Recovery in Midlife: Rebuilding Body Trust Eating disorder recovery in midlife is not about returning to a previous version of your body. It is about building a new relationship with your body that is rooted in trust, nourishment, and care. Deb shares how recovery can include untangling internalized ageism, challenging diet culture beliefs, and reconnecting with hunger, fullness, and rest. Creating a sense of safety in the body is essential, especially during a time when cultural messaging promotes undernourishment and overexertion. Recovery in midlife can support greater flexibility, connection, and sustainability in your relationship with food. A More Expansive Approach to Aging, Body Image & Body Diversity During this episode, we explore the limitations of pro-aging and body image spaces that still center thin, white, able-bodied bodies. Expanding the definition of beauty and embracing body diversity across ages is essential for meaningful eating disorder recovery. Midlife can offer an opportunity to reconnect with your values, shift away from body control, and move toward a more expansive understanding of yourself. Aging does not have to be something to fight. It can create space for clarity, autonomy, and deeper connection. Key Takeaway Your body is not the project of your life. Your body is your partner. Eating disorder recovery in midlife can include more trust, flexibility, and freedom.

Have you ever stepped into a weight room and felt so self aware that the fear of being judged almost made you walk straight back out? That split second of doubt can stop you before you even begin, and it can block you from finding a way to move your body that feels freeing instead of forced. That tension feeds fitness comparison, where you size up your progress against someone else's highlight reel. Today, we break down why feeling out of place is a normal stress response and how a small shift in perspective can help you build real confidence. In this episode, we explore: How to navigate gym anxiety by understanding your brain's natural scan for social threats. The impact of physical appearance on your willingness to try new things. Why adopting a learner mindset allows you to "butcher" the moves while you grow. Practical gym etiquette to help you move from outsider to part of the community. Using exposure therapy principles to gradually increase your comfort in group fitness settings. We'll also go over how stepping away from a high-pressure movement culture creates the space you need to master intuitive eating. We are sharing the strategies that help you build a sustainable exercise habit as a form of healthy self care rather than a punishment.  If you are ready to start showing up fully for yourself, this episode is for you.  Let's rebrand wellness together!

What if your PCOS diagnosis is about more than fertility? What if the symptoms you've been told to "just manage" are actually your body asking for deeper support? And what if you could take back control in a way that feels empowering rather than restrictive? In this episode of Brave & Curious, Dr. Lora Shahine sits down with registered dietitian and author of PCOS is My Power Cory Ruth, RDN  to explain all about Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) and why it's often misunderstood. Cory shares her personal journey to diagnosis and how it shaped her mission to help women better understand the metabolic, hormonal, and reproductive components of PCOS.  Dr. Shahine and Cory cover the diagnostic criteria, common misconceptions (like "just lose weight"), and the evolving science around lifestyle interventions, blood sugar regulation, and long-term health outcomes.

Episode 82 of Body Justice Podcast is a follow up conversation with Deb Benfield, a registered dietitian and author of Aging Body Liberation, about the intersection of diet culture and ageism; as well as the covert ways disordered eating is becoming embedded into policy in the U.S. We discuss our thoughts on: ultra-processed foods, seed oils, longevity medication and more.More about Deb:Deb Benfield, M.Ed., RDN, LDN, RYT, is a Registered Dietitian, nutrition therapist, and body image coach with 40 years of experience helping people heal their relationship with food, movement, and their bodies. Her work sits at the intersection of anti-ageism, body liberation, and trauma-informed care, offering a radically compassionate alternative to anti-aging, diet, and wellness culture, especially for those in midlife and beyond.After turning 60, Deb began questioning the dominant narratives around aging, vitality, and beauty—and quickly realized how many resources still centered weight loss and youthful appearance as ultimate goals. In response, she created what she couldn't find: a framework for nourishing the body that honors inner wisdom, prioritizes quality of life, and embraces the full spectrum of aging.She's the author of Unapologetic Aging: How to Mend and Nourish Your Relationship with Your Body and offers individual and group coaching to help others age unapologetically—on their own terms.Disclaimer: this podcast is intended for informational and educational purposes only.

Has your pursuit of food freedom has turned into a chaotic free for all that leaves you feeling more sluggish than supported? Many assume intuitive eating means eating whatever sounds good in the moment. Taste becomes the only guide. That idea often leads to confusion, especially for those trying to step away from diet culture and follow a non diet approach. In this episode, we explore what eating intuitively really looks like in practice. It is a blend of internal cues, emotions, and rational thought. When those three work together, you begin to build body intuition and a deeper sense of body respect. We talk about how mindful eating plays a role in this process and why it takes time to develop. You will hear how this approach creates space for both satisfaction and nourishing meals, without turning food into a new set of rules. This conversation focuses on: How gentle nutrition fits into this process without turning it into strict rules The role of nutrient dense foods in creating meals that support your energy and digestion How to balance cravings with awareness instead of relying on taste alone Ways to recognize patterns in your eating habits and body responses How emotional eating support helps you better understand your relationship with food Food neutrality becomes easier when you remove judgment and allow yourself to experiment. Over time, you stop labeling foods as good or bad and start making decisions based on what your body actually needs. Rebuilding trust with your body can feel challenging.

In this episode you'll learn: • Why gut issues are often misdiagnosed or misunderstood • The root causes behind IBS, SIBO, and gut imbalances • How life events, stress, and diet shape gut health over time • The role of prebiotics, probiotics, and postbiotics • How a plant-based approach can support gut healing • Why a personalized, whole-person intake is essential Links & Resources Dahlia Marin / Married to Health Website: https://www.marriedtohealth.com Program: https://www.marriedtohealth.com/good-gut-sibo-ibs-program Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/marriedtohealth/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/Marriedtohealth National Health Association https://www.healthscience.org

If you have PCOS and feel constantly hungry, deal with strong food cravings, or struggle with binge eating, you are not imagining it. PCOS can directly affect hunger, cravings, and eating patterns through insulin resistance and hormone imbalance. In this episode, Dr. Marianne explains the real link between PCOS and eating disorders so you can understand what is happening in your body without blame. What Is PCOS? PCOS, or polycystic ovary syndrome, is an endocrine and metabolic condition that affects hormones, blood sugar regulation, and appetite. While often labeled as a reproductive issue, PCOS also plays a major role in hunger, food cravings, and disordered eating patterns. PCOS, Insulin Resistance, and Food Cravings Insulin resistance is common in PCOS and can disrupt blood sugar stability. This can lead to increased hunger, intense food cravings, and energy swings throughout the day. These PCOS symptoms are biological and can strongly influence eating behavior, including binge eating. The Link Between PCOS and Eating Disorders The connection between PCOS and eating disorders develops when increased biological hunger meets pressure to restrict food. Restriction can intensify cravings, increase food focus, and contribute to binge eating and disordered eating cycles. This is not a failure of willpower. It is the interaction between hormone imbalance, insulin resistance, and external messaging about food. Neurodivergence, PCOS, and Eating Patterns Neurodivergent individuals may experience additional challenges with eating, including sensory sensitivities, executive functioning differences, and changes in hunger awareness. When combined with PCOS, these factors can make eating feel more complex and require more flexible, individualized support. Why Restriction Can Worsen PCOS and Binge Eating Restricting food can increase hunger and amplify PCOS-related food cravings. This can lead to stronger urges to eat and cycles of binge eating. Supporting consistent nourishment can help stabilize energy, reduce extremes, and support eating disorder recovery. A Non-Restrictive Approach to PCOS and Eating Disorder Recovery Recovery from eating disorders with PCOS requires working with your body, not against it. This includes consistent eating, supporting blood sugar regulation, using low-lift meals, and honoring sensory needs. These approaches can support both hormone balance and a more regulated relationship with food. The Emotional Side of PCOS and Disordered Eating PCOS is often accompanied by body changes and exposure to weight stigma, which can increase distress and drive attempts to control food. Understanding the emotional and social layers of PCOS and eating disorders is an important part of healing. You Are Not Broken If you are living with PCOS, insulin resistance, food cravings, or binge eating, your experience is valid. Your body is responding to real biological processes. Support is possible without restriction, shame, or rigid food rules. Related Episodes Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) and Nutrition With Eden Davis, RDN, LDN on Apple & Spotify.

Do you ever feel annoyed when your mind races during a meditation practice instead of staying perfectly quiet? You're not alone.  The great news is that you can transform your health by realizing that the true goal of a meditation practice is simply noticing where your thoughts go rather than trying to force an empty mind. In this episode, we walk you through the tenets of mindfulness skills and how to use them to support your health. We talk about how the present moment is often missed because we are stuck in the past or the future. We explain that a consistent meditation practice is like a metaphor for our intuitive eating journey, where we learn to sit with discomfort and practice self compassion rather than judgment. We explore how tuning into physical sensations can strengthen your body connection and help you navigate life's "waves" more effectively. In this episode, you'll learn: How to define mindful awareness using five specific tenets. What to do when you notice your thoughts drifting away from the present moment. Why an anchor point , like your breath, is essential for staying grounded. How mindful breathing techniques exercise your "pause muscle". Why active listening to your body is a foundational skill. What the science says about guided meditation benefits for brain health How to improve emotional regulation by observing thoughts like passing clouds. Why debunking meditation myths makes the practice more accessible. If you've been searching for a better body connection, self compassion, and mindfulness skills, this episode is your invitation to begin your intuitive eating journey.
