If you're confused by nonstop nutrition trends and conflicting health advice online… join the club. In this eye-opening episode, I chat with the internet’s favourite registered dietitian and nutrition expert, Abbey Sharp, to break down balanced nutrition tips, metabolism hacks, and what the latest science says about protein, fibre, gut health, and blood sugar balance.

Abbey is a Registered Dietitian (RD), a cookbook author, a TV nutrition expert, a YouTuber, host of the podcast Bite Back, and the founder of Abbey’s Kitchen. She dismantles diet culture with science and sass, and her core philosophy is that a pleasurable relationship with food, your body and your self is the fundamental secret to good health.

Join us as we as we dive deep into evidence-based nutrition science and debunk BS diet trends.

We’re cutting through the food noise to answer your top questions:

• How much protein do you actually need to support satiety and muscle health?
• Why fibre is essential for gut health and how it helps manage cravings
• The surprising link between your gut microbiome and immune system, mental health, and more
• How your microbiome affects calorie absorption
• Debunking viral metabolism-boosting hacks (what actually works?)
• Should you eat 3 big meals or snack throughout the day?
• Does meal timing affect weight loss, blood sugar, or energy levels?
• How sleep and hunger hormones like ghrelin, leptin and cortisol are connected
• Easy, science-backed nutrition tips to support your health goals
• The power of retrogradation and cooling your carbs
• How important is working out for hormones and weight management?
• Smart strategies to stabilize blood sugar and hormones through diet

Whether you're looking to feel more energized, support your digestion, or manage your weight without restriction, this episode is packed with balanced, no-bullshit tips for feeling your best.

Welcome to today’s ICYMI, where we kick off the week with a quick game-changing tip from one of our guests that you might have missed.

Summer brings the best of times, but for those struggling with their bodies and self-esteem, it can also bring triggering times. To help us gear up for an unapologetic hot girl summer of self-love, we're throwing it back to this inspiring pep talk from Roxy Earle, where she shares her self-talk mindset shifts, her gratitude practice, and her keys for building confidence and body acceptance. Because at the end of the day, the only person holding you back from being your most confident self is you.

Roxy is a former marketing professional turned model, entrepreneur, body positivity activist and a star on Real Housewives of Toronto. She started the #MySizeRox movement, which advocates that confidence comes in all shapes and sizes. She’s worked with brands like Knix, H&M, Le Chateau and Joe Fresh to bring more inclusive sizing and styles to their stores. Roxy is the co-founder of the Ana App, a fertility, wellness and hormone tool for women.
