If you have PCOS, then listening to Julie's podcasts will change your mind on restrictive diets for weight loss (hint......they only make PCOS worse!).
Health at Every Size, or HAES, is a framework for health, wellness and medical care that considers all bodies to be worthy of dignified and respectful care as they exist right now.
Bloating, wind, burping, flatulence, constipation, diarrhoea, abdominal pain and increasing sensitivities to foods (despite already removing 'trigger' foods) are symptoms I hear ALL the time relating to bowels.
Simone is amazing at explaining gut health, what is it, what are pre and probiotics, how to know if your gut is performing optimally, and what simple changes you can make to improve your gut health.
This amazing podcast series by Julie Duffy Dillon and Kimmie Singh offers you insight, stories of overcoming blame and shame, quite a few swear words, body positivity, medical truths, and much more. A must listen for anyone impacted by PCOS.
I often struggle when first seeing a new client who no longer can stand living in the emotional roller coaster and turmoil that is diet culture, but does not know where/how to start to embrace the 'Health at Every Size' and non diet principles.
