When new fad diets are being promoted every week, it’s hard to cut through the B.S. and know which, if any, of these popular options you should try. In this episode, Laurin and Celeste dig into some of the popular diets and strategies people are adopting to lose weight and get healthier. You’ll hear about types of eating, like intermittent fasting and time-restricted feeding; diets like keto and paleo; and diets that are part of larger lifestyle changes, like veganism. You’ll also hear the effects some of these diets have had on Laurin and Celeste, including what happened when Celeste went vegan. Stop listening to what the Dr. Ozes of the world are selling and hear the reality of whether any of the options could be right for you. “It’s cool to… be super committed to something, but it’s safer to know what you’re doing, educate yourself, and ease into something.”  -Celeste Bonin   Subscribe to iTunes, TuneIn, or Stitcher Radio!
