#002 - I was raised on margarine, diet soda, low-fat milk, and I avoided sugary cereals. We followed the guidelines of the USDA and the Food Pyramid. How did we get it so wrong? Find out as we meet an experienced dietician and high performance athlete who is rethinking the conventional wisdom on nutrition.

Michelle Hurn is a registered and licensed dietitian with eleven years of experience as a clinical, acute care dietitian, lead dietitian in psychiatric care, and outpatient dietitian.
She is the author of The Dietician's Dilemma-What would you do if your health was restored by doing the opposite of everything that you were taught?
Michelle is an avid endurance athlete, she has qualified for the Boston Marathon 12 times, and on November 7th 2020, she recently won her first ultra marathon covering 44.63 miles in a 6 hour timed race.

Some of the things we cover:

What is a dietician and what do they do?

What is the state of modern dietetics?

What does the ADA still get wrong today?

What are your current recommendations?

Optimal diet?

Fasting?
