The Impact of Misinformation on Diets and Eating Disorders
Some dieticians, health influencers, and medical professionals argue that certain food-like substances are not addictive and that excluding any type of food can lead to disordered eating. However, the author disagrees and refers to them as 'useful idiots' who lack understanding of evolution, appetite regulation, and the impact of hyper-palatable foods. The author believes that following their advice can be harmful as it disregards the nuance of different foods. Additionally, it is concerning when influencers are sponsored by big sugar and aspartame while promoting their safety. The author then briefly mentions a fish oil they recommend using.
