Deep dives

The Misalignment of Diet Advice for Women

Current dietary recommendations often focus heavily on a male-biased understanding of nutrition, neglecting the unique biological needs of women. Many women find themselves following restrictive diets that overlook their hormonal fluctuations, leading to frustration and exhaustion despite their efforts in self-care and health. The podcast highlights that most conventional dieting practices are based on the physiology of men, resulting in inadequate approaches for women's bodies, which require a different understanding of food and nutrition. An important insight is that successful weight loss and health for women involves respecting and adapting to hormonal changes rather than adhering to one-size-fits-all dieting rules.
