11 Mar 2025

Description

*This episode comes with a TRIGGER WARNING*This week in my kitchen, I’m joined by Sophie Gastman, a nutritionist and food influencer, who opens up about her personal journey from struggling with restrictive eating and body dysmorphia to finding food freedom. Sophie shares how her decision to go vegan as a way to control her eating disorder led her to go without a period for six years. She then walks us through her transformation as she worked to remove the strict rules around her diet, ultimately reaching a place of food freedom. Today, Sophie uses her Instagram platform to share the content she wishes she had when she was younger — a place where she debunks popular myths and misinformation, and where food is celebrated rather than demonized.In this episode, Sophie and I take a deep dive into the "Glucose Goddess" and examine whether the claims being made are factual or misleading. We also explore why seed oils have become a controversial topic and where the sudden backlash against them has come from.Packed with valuable insights, this episode is an empowering conversation that shows how food is so much more than just fuel. It can influence your travel, family life, menstrual cycle, and even your entire personality.The topics we talk about are:Sophie's food journeyWhy she went plant-basedWhy she then re-introduced animal productsHow the transition was - the struggles along the wayThe Glucose GoddessWhy oats are demonisedThe perfect porridge recipeDe-bunking common myths shared onlineSeed oils - are they as bad as they're made out to beDiet culture Sophie's relationship with food and how it has changed Growing online in the food spaceGrowing up feeling like you don't fit in What Sophie would tell her younger self Sponsors:This episode is sponsored by Wylde Use code KITCHEN15 to receive £15 off your order This episode was hosted and produced by Georgia SymondsGeorgia’s Instagram - click here!For more information and other interesting articles check out our website: www.catchupsinmykitchen.com To check out Sophie click here Hosted on Acast.
