In this episode, we’re reclaiming nutrition facts from the clutches of food rules and fear. You’ll learn how to approach a nutrition label without spiraling into judgment or rigid thinking—and how these labels can actually support you in honoring your body’s needs.
We cover:
- Why serving sizes are often arbitrary (and not worth stressing over)
- How to assess if a food will be satisfying and sustaining—beyond just calories
- What to do when a meal leaves you hungry an hour later (hint: it’s probably missing fat)
- Why “high calorie” isn’t a bad thing—and how that narrative has been skewed by diet culture
- A reminder that your nutrition needs aren’t confined to a 24-hour window
- How to spot sneaky sources of valuable nutrients like iron, calcium, and B vitamins—yes, even in foods diet culture deems “bad”
You’ll also hear a real-life client story that highlights how gentle curiosity—not obsession—can help you build meals that actually work for your body.
Nutrition labels aren’t moral scorecards. This episode will help you read them with nuance, compassion, and a whole lot less stress.
