Food, We Need To Talk

Budget Ozempic, Covid's Effects on Eating Disorders, and More


Listen Later

Today, in honor of Eating Disorders Awareness Week, we speak to Professor Bryn Austin. Our conversation covers a wide variety of topics: How the pandemic and social media have affected rates of eating disorders, how pharmaceutical companies are unethically marketing the new weight loss medications, the dangers of budget Ozempic, inequalities in the treatment and recognition of eating disorders, and how you, yes YOU, can create change by promoting public policies that protect our kids from harmful dietary supplements.
