It’s not a diet! Or is it? The Whole30 burst onto the wellness scene in the late aughts and became hugely popular. Its creators claim it’s not a diet, but instead a short term reset that will not only help you feel better but also create a path to food freedom. But are elimination diets like The Whole30 necessary for everyone? And is the path to food freedom found by cutting out multiple food groups and following a rule-based approach to eating? Join us, two registered dietitians, as we analyze The Whole30 and discuss how programs like this can often do more harm than good. Want to support the show and get bonus episodes?
