    142. Viome's Gut Health Test Uses AI- Worth it or Not?

    142. Viome's Gut Health Test Uses AI- Worth it or Not?

    Kait and Megan discuss their thoughts on Voime, a microbiome (gut) testing kit that uses AI to provide a Health Scores and recommendations personalized to the user. They also sell a sh*t ton of supplements! These dietitians discuss...


    How Viome is different than other gut-testing tests like Everlywell
    Our hopes and doubts about the service
    Who we'd recommend this test to (and who we wouldn't)
    If we think it's worth the hefty price tag

    140. Are you an "almond mom"?

    140. Are you an "almond mom"?

    Gen Z's on TiKTok have a war against "Almond Moms," a term used to define women obsessed with diet culture, thinness, and wellness culture. Younger generations are now attributing their disordered eating habits to the influence of their almond moms and calling them out online.

    As registered dietitians who have had hundreds of conversations with both daughters of almond mom's and almond moms alike, we are jumping on the Nutrition Awareness podcast to share our take + tips on how to model a healthy relationship with food into to your kiddos.

Brooke J19 ,

Informative and relatable!

A great podcast to listen to for those interested in the health and nutrition field! Definitely like the contrast and different perspectives that Kait and Megan give to their listeners. Not only that, I appreciate how relatable they are. They are not here to promote a cookie cutter diet but more of a realistic way to eat healthy all while enjoying your life at the same time!

Great show!

Straightforward and realistic conversations about health and diet!

Listened to the Blood type episode

I started listening to get objective information about the diet, but they came off as judgmental and snarky.
