Diet Culture Rebel Podcast

What Diet Culture Gets Wrong About Gut Health (with Dr. Heather Finley)

28 May 2025

Description

Hey rebel. Let’s be real, no one wants to talk about poop. Or gas. Or bloating. Or… binge eating. But so many of us are silently struggling with both food AND gut issues, and they’re more connected than you might think. In today’s episode, I’m joined by gut health specialist and registered dietitian Dr. Heather Finley to break the silence and unpack how things like chaotic eating, restriction, and disordered patterns can impact digestion, even if you think you’re eating enough overall. We talk about: Why your gut needs consistency and enough food to function well How restriction (even unintentional!) can affect your bowel movements and tolerance to fiber The nuanced role of meal spacing without falling into diet culture traps Why poop is actually a valuable signal from your body (yep, we went there!) Common gut health myths (greens powders, probiotics, and carnivore diets included!) This episode is packed with validation and insight, especially if you’re juggling digestive struggles while working on healing your relationship with food.   Check out Dr. Heather Finley https://www.instagram.com/drheatherfinley/?hl=en ----- 🎥 Free Training: Trust Your Body Again: An Intro to Intuitive Eating Learn why food feels so hard—and how to take the first step toward peace without guilt, obsession, or dieting. https://dietculturerebel.com/training   My team of registered dietitians is now accepting insurance for one-on-one nutrition counseling!
