Can resveratrol prevent bone loss? What the research really shows

In this episode, Monica breaks down the latest research on resveratrol and bone loss prevention. While the 2020 RESHAW study in Australia showed promising results for postmenopausal women, a more recent meta-analysis tells a different story. We separate the supplement hype from the evidence-based nutrition strategies that actually protect your skeleton as you age. Key Takeaways: The RESHAW Breakdown: Why 150 mg of resveratrol led to modest gains in hip and spine density—and why you’d need a lot of wine to replicate it.10-Year Fracture Risk: How to use the FRAX calculator to estimate your likelihood of a major fracture as part of your longevity strategy.The Meta-Analysis Reality Check: Why mashing up 10 human trials suggests resveratrol might not be the "magic pill" for bone density.The "Healthspan" Levers: Why protein timing, Fibermaxxing, and Vitamin K remain the gold standards for sarcopenia prevention and bone strength.Resources: FRAX Calculator: 10-year fracture risk toolEpisode 734: Closing the calcium gap safely.

What science has to say about your sweet tooth

862. Can you actually "reset" your taste buds by cutting out sugar? You’ve heard that a 30-day sugar detox will make your cravings disappear, but a new study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition suggests our preference for sweetness is more permanent than we thought. This week, Monica debunks the "palate reset" myth and explores a more effective way to manage a sweet tooth. Key Takeaways: The myth of the palate reset: Why "The Sweet Tooth Trial" found that cutting sugar for 6 months didn't change taste preferences.The first 1,000 days: How early life exposure sets your biological "sweetness" baseline.Behavior over biology: Why addressing emotional triggers is more effective than a 30-day cleanse.

Cook or compost? What to do with carrot tops, avocado pits and peanut shells

860. Are you throwing away the most nutritious parts of your groceries? From blending avocado pits into smoothies to snacking on peanut shells, social media is full of "zero-waste" food hacks—but are they actually safe? This week, Monica digs into the compost bin to separate the "hidden treasures" from the literal trash. We go over which veggie scraps are nutritional powerhouses (hello, beet greens!) and which ones—like rhubarb leaves and apple seeds—could actually be toxic. Plus, the truth about whether eating corn cobs and peanut shells is "fiber" or just a recipe for a digestive disaster. Nutrition Diva is a Quick and Dirty Tips podcast, hosted by Monica Reinegal.

But while influencers claim it’s a cure-all for everything from hangovers to gut health, the actual science is a bit more surprising.

Are you "killing" the nutrients in your food? InstantPots, microwaves, and leftovers…and my only cardinal rule

Does your food lose its nutritional value as soon as it hits the heat? This week on Nutrition Diva, Monica answers a listener's question about how different cooking methods—specifically the Instant Pot versus the stovetop—impact the vitamins and minerals in your meals. We look into the science of nutrient retention, debunking "urban legends" about microwaving, and explaining why frozen vegetables might actually be more nutritious than the "fresh" ones sitting on your counter. The "New Car" Analogy: Does nutrient value drop immediately, or is it a gradual decline?Pressure Cooking vs. Boiling: Why the Instant Pot often beats the stove for preserving fragile vitamins.The Leftover Equation: How many nutrients are actually left in your 3-day-old chili?The Cardinal Rule: The one thing you should never do when reheating food (hint: it’s not about the nutrients, it's about microplastics).The Kale Chip Lesson: Why the "most nutritious" way to cook is the one that actually gets eaten.
