In this solo update episode, Kelly Springer dives into the latest news from Kelly’s Choice and shares powerful insights on GLP-1 medications, nutrition myths, the truth about fasting, and how your insurance may already cover working with a registered dietitian.

From hiring more RDs to the launch of her new nonprofit Nutrition Education for All, Kelly is on a mission to make nutrition accessible—and to cut through the noise online with real, evidence-based guidance. She also explains how people are sabotaging their health with extreme fasting and how dietitians can guide you safely through any weight loss or wellness journey—especially when medications like GLP-1s (e.g., Ozempic, Wegovy) are involved.
