There is nothing quite like a delicious breakfast to start your day, a snack to hold you over, or dinner to put you to bed. Right? But as you eat your tasty food, do you ever think about what exactly is in it? Or what it does to your health? Join us in this episode to talk about how the food you eat can play into the leading causes of death in women: heart disease, cancer, and stroke. To explore the health effects of food, we touch on what diets are maybe not the best and what diets are recommended by nutrition experts and physicians! We also get into the history of some of the best diets and how they have changed throughout the years. So whether you are a tree-eater or a meat-eater, or someone in between, tune in this week to see how changing your diet could benefit you in the long run.

Feminist Corner: 

• I often hear from the general public that ‘the doctor just tells me to lose weight or change my diet, what's the point of even going if they aren't going to give more solid advice or help’. And this is a hard conversation because as future doctors, we learn that lifestyle changes are immensely important in disease prevention and treatment, and should often be tried before or with initial treatments. So how can we do a better job of approaching these conversations with patients and recommending diet changes?
