Do DIETS Actually WORK? (A NUTRITIONIST's Verdict) #49

The Breaking Point Podcast UK

On today's show, I spoke with Stu Graham, Stu is a nutritionist, master coach and podcast host.
We uncover the dynamic interplay between mental well-being, emotional intelligence, and social connections, challenging the narrow confines of traditional health metrics. Stu shares his expertise on how enhancing one aspect of health can improve others and cautions against the pitfalls of extreme dieting that can undermine your social life and self-confidence.
We unpack this complex issue of Yo-Yo Dieting, discussing the emotional and psychological factors that sustain it, and why 95% of diets fail. Stu and I offer a fresh perspective on sustainable dietary changes, emphasizing the importance of emotional regulation, self-awareness, and intrinsic motivation. We discuss how adopting a balanced, all-encompassing approach to eating can foster lasting change and a healthier relationship with food. Our conversation also highlights how diet culture distorts body image and promotes harmful behaviours, and we stress the necessity of finding a middle ground that aligns with core values and overall well-being.
