On today's episode of GGW, we have Naturopathic Doctor, Dr. Erin Ley, debunking all the nutrition myths you grew up believing (plus, the one's on tiktok that you are still genuinely wondering about) and providing us with real solutions to actually building a "healthy" diet, and creating strong dietary habits that help us meet our nutritional requirements and improve our overall health.
Dr. Erin is a Naturopathic Doctor who uses nutrition and concepts of nonrestrictive and intuitive eating as a backbone modality to support women from PMS through to menopause. Many patients are overwhelmed and confused about nutrition because of diet culture, and conflicting information they find online. They recognize that food and nutrition are important pieces to their health puzzle, yet they feel stuck. Dr. Erin guides patients on their journey to feeling empowered by their nutrition and food choices.
We covered:

what is a "healthy" diet?
how can we make lasting nutritional changes going into 2025?
does food affect our hormones?
is diet soda as bad as they say?
how can we eat healthy but stay on budget?
how do us "on-the-go" gals stick to a healthy plan?

and so much more.
