Eating for Colds, Digestion Hacks & Why Weight Won’t Shift

About this episode

What should you actually eat when you’re unwell and don’t have the energy to cook? Do viral digestion hacks really improve how your body absorbs nutrients, or are they just adding more confusion? And why can weight stay the same even when you’re eating well, exercising and doing everything “right”? This week, we break down the science behind a viral digestion claim, share simple, realistic ways to nourish your body when you’ve got a cold, and explore the nuance between nutrient density and energy balance when it comes to weight. We also unpack the ongoing debate around seed oils, looking at what the evidence actually says versus what’s being amplified online, and highlight the benefits of everyday foods like quinoa. A practical, myth-busting episode focused on helping you eat well, feel better and stop overthinking the small stuff.
