Description

In this final part of the macronutrient series, we’re breaking down one of the most misunderstood and feared nutrients: fat

From hormone health and brain function to satiety and energy, dietary fats are essential, and under-eating them can do more harm than you think. In this episode, I share my personal experience with overcoming my fear and restriction of fat. We get into the science behind different types of fats (saturated, monounsaturated, polyunsaturated, omega-3s and omega-6s), and what to actually look for in your diet and supplements.

Whether you’re working on hormone balance, struggling with hunger or mood, or just trying to understand what “healthy fats” even are, this episode will help you fuel your body with confidence and clarity.
