Whether we're aware of it or not, diet culture is a force that influences people's beliefs about health, weight, fatness, attractiveness, food, and self-worth. Diet culture explains why the diet industry is worth billions of dollars, and it’s at the root of American’s disordered relationship with food. In today’s episode we define diet culture, understand how it affects our well-being, and learn how to free ourselves from its influence. We’re joined by Christy Harrison, an anti-diet registered dietitian nutritionist and certified intuitive eating counselor based in New York, and the host of the Food Psych podcast.
