Description
Welcome to Season 2 of The Gynarchy Podcast! We’re kicking off the new year with an episode on healthy eating with Dr. Nisha Patel, an internal medicine physician who specializes in obesity, menopause, lipidology, cardiometabolic health, and culinary medicine.
In “Episode 13: Healthy Eating” we discuss the confusing and ever-evolving world of nutrition for women and Dr. Nisha Patel gives practical advice for healthy eating with a focus on cardiometabolic health and prevention of disease.
Here’s what we’ll cover:
- Developing “culinary literacy” and healthy eating habits
- What is a healthy diet anyway?
- What is the body mass index (BMI) and is it still useful? What should your weight and health goals be?
- Thoughts on diets such as keto, raw meat/milk, and vegetarian and vegan lifestyles
- Healthy eating with a whole foods, plant-forward emphasis
- How much protein does one need?
- Are “low carb” and “low fat” foods healthier?
- The difference between nutritionists and registered dieticians
- Focusing on overall well-being and health, strength, and longevity over patriarchal standards of weight / beauty
