Fitness and Food Myths

from Fit Minds · host Mariah Jean

You may have heard this story before - someone comes home from the gym and says 'I'm eating two egg whites, two turkey-sausages, and a spinach salad,' and they expect you to be impressed by their act of self-deprivation. People will put themselves under unnecessary stress, making the new 'diet' they are on that much more difficult than it really needs to be. But with all the fat burning supplements, lemon water and waist trainers marketed towards you - is it really worth spending your hard earned money on these “quick fixes” that simply don’t work? The main stream social media influencer driven fitness industry is notorious for making claims and providing misinformation to the public. This can be extremely frustrating - especially when it comes to your health and fitness goals. For both us as coaches and you as the consumer/client. And as a result…along with the booming growth of the internet, what we think is readily available reliable  “information” and the increasing desire for instant gratification.We’ve been flooded with an influx of fitness, nutrition and health MISinformation, drowning out the plain and factual truth beneath the smoke and mirrors. In this new podcast episode, I cover some of the ideas and methods that have been perpetuated by Tiktok, YouTube & Insta famous internet personalities.That are either are entirely untrue and/or not supported & backed by solid scientific evidence, peer reviewed studies and evidence based practice.Support the show
