To say many of us, especially women, have a complicated relationship with food would probably be a bit of an understatement. Diet culture is rampant in social media and our day-to-day decision-making, often leaving us feeling guilty for reaching for the foods we enjoy rather than the ones we think we "should" be eating. But shouldn't we be able to find joy in food without feeling like we've thrown our health goals out the window? Dr. Sylvi says yes.
Dr. Sylvi Martin is a naturopathic doctor and certified intuitive eating counselor who helps support women in their journey to mindful eating and therapeutic nutrition. She helps patients understand their relationships to food and how clinical nutrition intersects with our mental health. In today's episode, she shares her audacity by telling us exactly why we don't need to give up our chips or chocolate habit and feel good about the decisions we make around food.
