Summary

This week Laura + Alan Flanagan, aka The Nutritional Advocate, dismantle a whole load of stuff that bloggers and influencers have been saying.

In this episode they discuss:

✨ The need to be sceptical of n=1 anecdotal evidence that pops up A LOT on social media + blogs
✨ The dumbf**kery of the carnivore diet
✨ The problems with conflating moral considerations with nutritional benefits when it comes to dairy
✨ The bizarre claim that gluten is "better" in Europe than America
✨ How the nocebo effect is a real thing
✨ Prolonged fasting + how it's so damn dangerous!
