Personalized Nutrition Part 2: Nutrigenetics (with Dr. Lara Hyde)
In the second of this three part series, we’re digging into the world of nutrigenetics. Over the last several years, there has been a huge uptick in companies offering personalized diet recommendations ‘based on your own unique DNA!’. But how evidence-based are companies like GenoPalate? And are there potential downsides of over-focusing on how your DNA interacts with the foods you eat? Join us, two Registered Dietitians (well mostly Matt), as we answer these and a whole host of other questions about the science of Nutrigenetics.

Personalized Nutrition Part 1: Viome and the Microbiome (With Dr. Lara Hyde)
In the first of this three part series, we dive into the world of personalized nutrition starting with the microbiome. Most of us have seen companies like Viome, promising that their revolutionary microbiome test can help us "optimize" our gut and consequently improve our overall health. But how much do we actually know about the microbiome? And are these tests really reliable? Join us, two registered dietitians and one very special guest, as we dig deep into the world of personalized microbiome testing.

The Great Saturated Fat Debate
For decades the advice around saturated fat seemed clear: lowering your intake of saturated fat would lower your risk of developing cardiovascular disease. But about a decade ago, things changed. The carnivore diet gained popularity, Time Magazine featured ‘Butter is Back’ on their cover, and social media became awash with influencers claiming that everything we knew about saturated fat was wrong. With all of these opposing views, what does the research actually tell us about saturated fat and heart disease? Join us, two registered dietitians, as we dig into what has become one of the biggest controversies in the world of nutrition.

The Language of Weight Stigma (with Ragen Chastain)
The words “overweight” and “obesity” are used both colloquially and throughout the healthcare establishment. But what impact does this language have on us? And how do these words hold the power to stigmatize and cause harm? Matt had the pleasure of speaking with Ragen Chastain, a speaker and writer who focuses on the intersection of weight science, weight stigma, and healthcare practice. Matt and Ragen’s conversation emphasizes just how powerful language can be in fueling anti-fat bias. So join us, two Registered Dietitians (well mostly Matt), in this nuanced and important conversation.
