Summary

Dr. Amy Porto is an anti-diet registered dietitian, nutrition professor, and certified intuitive eating counselor. As an expert in her field with over 20 years of experience, Dr. Porto speaks the truth about nutrition. Her purpose is to disrupt mainstream diet culture with real science, a dash of humor, and a little bit of common sense. And while she holds a BS in Biochemistry and a Ph.D. in Nutrition Science, she believes you shouldn’t need a Ph.D. to decode food labels at the grocery store. Breaking down complex information about food and nutrition into digestible bite-sized pieces of information is her passion — plus, she loves a good pun. Amy’s ultimate goal is to help you trust your body and reclaim your relationship with food. Listen in to hear Amy share: The cultural impact of podcasts like Maintenance Phase and why accessible & approachable anti-diet, anti-fat bias information & content is so critical right now The process of unlearning when learning about nutrition The importance of language around food, and how we talk about food as it relates to ourselves and, even more importantly, to others The morality of “optimal health” The elitism of diet culture, cleanses, detoxing, and fasting Nourishing yourself from a place of self-care/self-love vs self-control Links mentioned: Connect with Amy: www.amyporto.com Amy on IG Amy on FB Podcast: Maintenance Phase Thank you to our sponsors this month: Fearless Finance: Get on-demand, comprehensive financial planning by the hour without all the headaches, high fees, and commitments that come with traditional financial advisors.
