Today I’m joined by the wonderful RD Maya Feller to discuss the nuances of nutrition. We talk food deserts, social determinants of health, dethroning BMI, food apartheid, and the implicit bias and racism in dietetics. We also discuss at length the importance of removing morality and hierarchy from certain food groups, and particularly from cultural foods. We emphasize the important link between food and culture, community and personal identity, and insist on embracing that food is more than just fuel; its culture, history, community and joy. Maya’s new cookbook celebrates the same, and can be found in the links below
