Best Interview 5 out of 5 ♥️😀
This has to be one of your best Interviews. I loved hearing Dr. Mindy Pelz answer questions about fasting. I would Love Love more interviews with her on your podcast. The perimenopause and menopausal women have to be a big audience for you and this was very informative. I would love a Q & A session with you and Mindy!
Host has blatant eating disorder and is harming people
This podcast is DANGEROUS and is full of her normalizing eating disorder behaviors and selling it as “health”. Melanie is the WORST person to be giving out food, diet and weight loss advice!!’ After listening to way too many episodes of Melanie sharing how she eats, it’s clear she has an eating disorder. Her podcasts are heavily geared around this obsession and fixation on fat loss and weight loss. She lies about having hypothyroidism to get thyroid meds that will keep her in an underweight emaciated body. She is doing harm to people who are trying to be heathy. The ads are out of control, and she is just trying to make money off of her listeners, she’s not really concerned about helping people at all. All the supplements, NAD patches, products she takes and treatments she does to maintain her obsession of being skinny and underweight. On several podcasts She has talked about how she HAS lost weight and has a deep history of trying all sorts of diets and crazy ways of eating but then she will contradict that by saying she’s “always been the same weight and has always eaten the same.” Get your story straight! She literally talked about how she “lost a ton of weight” on the episode with Jonathan bailor! She said all she ate was meat and wine and lost a ton of weight. She considers herself a “public figure” on IG while she flaunts her boney sickly underweight body and her massive weight loss. She posts content of her doing EMSCUPLT for fat loss when she is severely underweight and looks emaciated. On a recent epsiode she talks about all she eats now is meat and cucumbers. She lies to herself and says that she gets enough protein, while she is completely emaciated. She even admitted that she doesn’t let herself eat anything else and she will watch food porn cake videos while she eats fruit. This is full blown anorexia behavior. But she’s NORMALZING IT. she even speaks to Vanessa on the IF podcast about how she’s “worried that all the protein she eats will cause fat gain”. Vanessa should be ashamed of herself for doing a podcast with someone who is so mentally ill. She can eat as much protein as she wants, it doesn’t change the fact that she has anoreixa / orthorexia. Eating protein only is rabbit starvation. It won’t keep you healthy, she is severely malnourished and continues to live in denial. She’s doing harm to people with Ed’s and without Ed’s because of her constant mission to be as skinny and thin as possible by all of the things she does. She’s irresponsible for putting out the content she does. How are people still supporting her? She needs a reality check and to take a real look at herself and ask herself how she considers herself a public figure in the health or wellness space. Hope she can get the help she needs because she continues to be submerged in disordered eating and weight loss while trying to convince people she’s healthy and normal. She deserves to be sued for the harm she is causing to so many people
What a treat!
I love the Melanie Avalon Biohacking Podcast because Melanie keeps it real. She brings real subject matter experts on her show and always asks amazing and tough questions. Melanie isn't afraid to go against status quo and is super smart with her facts. Thanks for all you do and share Melanie!!
