Episode 196: Michelle Hurn

Thank you for joining us for another episode of the Low Carb MD Podcast. Michelle Hurn is a Registered and Licensed Dietician, author, and LCHF (Low Carb, High Fat) advocate. She is the author of The Dietitian’s Dilemma whose subject is the treatment of the root cause of disease through diet. She is also a running enthusiast and has participated in several Ultra Running events.

In their discussion, Brian, Tro, and Michelle talk about the lack of sufficient emphasis on nutrition training in medical education, the misguided and misinformed acceptance of processed carbs and sugars by so many, mental health outcomes of real food diets, the importance of considering the emotional component of metabolic health and weight gain, the value of meditation, prayer, and community for mental health, being ok with being an outlier for the sake of your health and well-being, and the devastating mental health effects of anorexia.
