Dr. Sarah Ballantyne, PhD is the founder of Nutrivore.com and New York Times best-selling author ofNutrivore: The Radical New Science for Getting the Nutrients You Need from the Food You Eat. She creates educational resources to help people improve their day-to-day diet and Lifestyle choices, empowered and informed by the most current evidence-based scientific research. With Nutrivore, Dr. Sarah has created a positive and inclusive approach to dietary guidance, based on science and devoid of dogma, using nutrient density and sufficiency as its basic principles: Nourishment, not judgment.

What if the secret to a healthier, happier life lies within the balance of evidence-based nutrition and personal intuition? Dr. Sarah Ballantyne joins me as we discuss her transformative journey from chronic health struggles to developing the Nutrivore eating framework. Dr. Ballantyne's insights challenge the restrictive dieting habits many fall victim to, replacing them with a colorful palette of nutrient-packed foods and a compassionate understanding of individual health needs. 

We discuss a fresh perspective on food fears and myths, especially those surrounding foods like kale and the often misunderstood oxalates. By dissecting diet culture and its psychological impact, we aim to empower you with critical thinking tools to evaluate health claims more effectively. You'll hear eye-opening anecdotes, including my own family's experiences with oversimplified nutrition lessons in high school, which often mislead rather than enlighten. 

Our conversation doesn't stop at dietary insights. We venture into the broader realm of healthy living, touching on the importance of sustainable dietary habits, the joy of savoring food, and the holistic principles behind weight-inclusive nutrition approaches. Whether it's the physiological benefits of a balanced weight or the secrets to healthy Aging found in the world’s Blue Zones, this episode provides science-backed Wisdom and personal revelations.
