What Is “Food Noise” Really? Mar 05, 2025

Show notes

“Food Noise” was a relatively unused term until the recent rise of GLP-1RA medications. Now, social media is abuzz with claims of people ridding themselves of their “food noise” and companies are using this language to sell their own compounded GLP-1 drugs. But what is “food noise” really? And should this term only be used by certain people? Is some “food noise” normal or should we be trying to rid ourselves of it entirely? Join us, two Registered Dietitians, as we discuss the different definitions of “food noise” and dig into how to think about this new terminology.

No Seriously, Are You Dehydrated? Feb 19, 2025

Show notes

Hydration recommendations abound. Some claim we should all be drinking 8 glasses of water daily, while others argue a gallon everyday is beneficial to our health. So how much fluid do you actually need to be drinking in a day? What about water enhancers that claim to hydrate you even faster than water alone? And is there anything to this new trend of drinking hydrogenated water? Join us, two Registered Dietitians, as we dive (pun intended!) into the world of hydration and answer all of these questions and more!

Let’s Talk About The Glucose Goddess... Feb 05, 2025

Show notes

Jessie Inchauspé, also known as The Glucose Goddess, burst onto the Instagram scene in 2018, where she began educating people on how to manage their blood sugar and control glucose ‘spikes’. An overnight sensation, she now sells books, supplements, courses and recipes all focused on how to manage blood sugar levels. But how do we actually define a glucose ‘spike’? And are her glucose ‘hacks’ really revolutionary? Join us, two Registered Dietitans, as we dive into the world of CGMs, blood sugar regulation and Jessie Inchauspé’s Glucose Revolution.
