Protein - What's the go? Interview with dietitian Jono Steedman (APD)

A fun, fad-free, evidence-based podcast serving you up all the latest in the world of nutrition and health. Tara Leong is a qualified nutritionist, university lecturer, speaker and author - renowned for her no-nonsense approach to nutrition. She doesn’t hold back in calling out the nonsense and wellness-wankery that is rife online. She breaks down the difficult nutrition science and delivers it to you in an easy to understand way so that you can learn and be inspired.

Great discussions of health versus “wellness”. Absolutely loved the “Influencer” focused episode &amp; looking forward to more content!

Looking forward to Part 2 (and maybe Parts 3- infinity?)

I’m thankful to have found this podcast at this point in my life. I’ve spent the last 3 years entirely engulfed in diet culture, losing over 100 lbs. When I developed eating disorders I felt out of control. Tara is helping me gain back my love for life by being the voice of reason and helping me understand why I’m not the one at fault for what I’m going through. She is seriously the best and she does such amazing work. Keep it up!

The voice of reason!

Why Frozen Vegetables are Your New Best Friend

Kate Wengier

The words we use when talking about food can have a profound effect on us, both positively, and negatively. Tara catches up with Dietitian Kate Wengier from Foost to talk about how we can choose words to promote a healthy relationship with food, and encourage healthy eating without force. They discuss the words to avoid using, and why we need to steer clear of labeling foods as 'good' or 'bad' foods due to the effect this may have on the development of eating disorders, restricted and fussy eating, and stress associated with food and mealtimes. This episode is important for those who have kids, but also those who don't. It will help learn how to be mindful of the language used around children, and also how the language your parents/caregivers used around you as a child may have impacted your thoughts and feelings about food and your body. As a dietitian, and mum of four, Kate has loads of real-world experience helping families take the stress out of mealtimes and build a positive relationship with food.

The words we use when talking about food can have a profound effect on us, both positively, and negatively. Tara catches up with Dietitian Kate Wengier from <a href="https://www.foost.com.au/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Foost </a>to talk about how we can choose words to promote a healthy relationship with food, and encourage healthy eating without force. They discuss the words to avoid using, and why we need to steer clear of labeling foods as 'good' or 'bad' foods due to the effect this may have on the development of eating disorders, restricted and fussy eating, and stress associated with food and mealtimes. This episode is important for those who have kids, but also those who don't.

Tara (nutritionists and social media addict) reveals how social media influencers can actually be harming our health without us even realising it. What Tara has to say is important for anyone using social media. She provides a behind the scenes look at how health influencers get sent products and paid to promote products, and often they don't even have to have tried the product to get paid to say it's amazing. Things like detoxes, skinny teas, protein powders are all subtly being shoved in our faces while we innocently scroll through our social media feed. This can be harming us in a number of different ways - our physical health AND mental health. This is Part 1 of a series of episodes about this topic. Tara has extensive knowledge in the area of social media, having worked for a social media agency, and then building her own social media audience for The Nutrition Guru and the Chef. She has spoken extensively at conferences and seminars around Australia on the topic of social media and the impact it is having on our health.Follow Tara on Instagram Follow Tara on Facebook Check out the Website Support the show
