The Morality of Health


Listen Later

Do you often categorize foods as "good" and "bad"? Does it feel like you're slowing dying when your child comes home with (another) bag of candy from a birthday party? Or perhaps you feel guilty whenever you crave foods deemed "unhealthy"?

In this episode I interview Alissa Rumsey, a registered dietitian, certified intuitive eating counselor, food and body liberation coach, and the author of Unapologetic Eating.

Together we talk about how white supremacy plays a part in our beliefs about health and body size and the way our obsession with health influences how we talk about food. Alissa also breaks down whether we have a moral imperative to try to be healthy.
