Manage episode 515132241 series 3637857
Think apple cider vinegar burns fat? Or that seed oils are literally toxic? Social media might have you believing just about anything these days — especially when it comes to nutrition.
In this episode, I’m joined by registered dietitian and 11 time author Andy De Santis to break down the most viral nutrition claims on TikTok — and rate them from “that’s legit” to “call the science police.”
We cover:
Whether greens powders are worth the hype
The truth about celery juice, ACV, and “detoxing”
If you should actually be afraid of seed oils
The facts behind blood sugar hacks, hormone smoothies, and more
PLUS: We wrap with a hilarious rapid-fire segment called “Rate That Claim!” where Andy gives his BS meter reading on some of TikTok’s most ridiculous health advice.
This is a must-listen if you’re feeling overwhelmed by conflicting nutrition advice and just want to know what actually works.
