Do you know the difference between a dietitian and a nutritionist? What about a health coach?!

This episode was inspired by a painfully incorrect infographic about the difference between dietitians, nutritionists, and health coaches that floated around Instagram last week. The girls of Wellness Myths realized that they’re always telling you to trust an expert and to trust a dietitian but have never truly explained why!

Expect to hear about the girls’ academic tears, the dangers of misinformation, and learn once and for all what it means to be a dietitian.

It’s time for the last macronutrient series episode: FAT! You’ve heard low-fat, non-fat, and reduced-fat… But do we really need to be limiting this nutrient in our diet?

The girls of Wellness Myths are here to answer all of your burning questions and address all the myths about dietary fat. Expect to learn about the various types of fats, smoke points, and how the low-fat diet craze began many years ago.

Sorry if you've seen this in your podcast feed before. There was some out-of-date science on olive oil's smoke point in the previous episode so this recording updates that information.
