Summary

According to rogue dietitian Reshaunda Thornton, we’re all in a relationship with food, till death do us part. It’s just a question of whether we’re willing to work to make that relationship happy and sustainable, or whether we’re content to keep arguing at every meal. On this episode, the nutrition expert and host of the podcast “The Dietitian Against Diets” dishes on how food relationships go wrong and what we can do to get them back on track. She digs into the reasons we resort to restrictive eating, why it almost never works, and how we can reorder our thinking to honor ourselves with healthy meals — including big plates of nachos, hold the shame.
