About this episode
Join Jessica Valant and Marita Radloff, MS, RDN as they delve into the world of nutrition for women. Food is fuel and has the power to support our bodies, minds and souls. In this episode, Marita discusses how women have been trained over time to be small and eat less and how this is actually harmful to our overall health. Marita goes on to discuss the details and science around how much protein we need, the importance of fiber, building a balanced plate and supplements - all through the lens of eating for overall health and enjoyment.
