NYU Has A Pro-Diet Culture Course & Sadly We’re Not Surprised

Remy and Emily dive in with a scoop du jour article all about a nutrition curriculum taught at NYU, which focuses on weight loss and the promotion of diet culture. They unpack the problematic course, which leads into a convo about nutritionists. Emily shares her personal experience with nutritionists, and gets into the benefits of seeing a weight-neutral registered dietician, rather than a nutritionist. Remy and Emily then break down the emphasis the healthcare industry places on weight, re: body shaming is not an effective way to influence someone’s health. They wrap up with a listener-submitted Dear DST, which is actually more of an “aha moment.” The email is all about those intrusive thoughts that pop up, and realizing how quick we can be to judge ourselves.

Om Podcasten

Welcome to Good Bodies, a “wellness” entertainment podcast where all bodies are good bodies. If you’re still reeling from the toxic diet culture of the early 2000s (justice for Jessica Simpson) and constantly quoting your therapist, then Emily Lubin and Lauren Hope Krass are here to help you laugh (so you don’t cry). Diets can’t sit with us anymore but there’s a place at the table for body neutrality, body positivity, intuitive eating, and hot takes about which non-dairy creamer pairs best with our sharp cheddar cheese omelettes.
