“I love Shaman Durek however I’m giving 3 stars because you have to be cautious even with the people you align with when they interview people like Dr. Diva Nugura...
If you’re healing from body trauma, lack of food resources, and/or any other type of body discrimination, be very discerning even with podcasts that you admire and that help you.
Food is not medicine! That’s a dangerous mindset that we have been taught. Food is nourishment & NOT a moral measurement! So when “experts” discuss food as being good or bad, I have to say STOP! This mindset is what leads to restriction, diets, and eventually disorder around your body, mind, and soul!
I think functional & integrative medicine is on the right track but they do NOT study eating disorders which is a mental health issue that’s a modern issue because of diet-culture mentality!
All this to say, take any podcast particularly the spiritual ones because some of the topics can be quite privileged and uninformed around mental health issues!
Anything that leads you toward extremes is something that needs to be examined! Fruits & veggies are great for us but they don’t heal diseases! They support us nutritionally! And anytime you hear carbs are bad for you, RUN! Your brain needs carbs to function well, that’s simply physiology!
Please doctors & dietitians, study eating disorders & check your privilege before you speak!
Again, I love many of SD’s episodes but we’re all spirits living human lives & mistakes can be made!”
