Optavia has been popping up in conversation a lot lately, and so I knew it was something I needed to address. But is the Optavia diet really worth it? And does it work?

You'll have to listen to find out.

But also, I'm just going to let you know now, this is not a clean episode. As in, I found it really hard to go through this information without getting SUPER heated about all of the nonsense that companies like Optavia are spewing.

In this episode, I go DEEP into:

- what the Optavia diet consists of

- the ridiculousness of Optavia snack choices

- why you should never trust an Optavia coach

- why not all research is GOOD research

- why it's never a good idea to put a teenager on a diet

... and more!
