  • Ozempic, The Size Zero Comeback & (More) Protein Hype
    Mar 10 2025
    Are we heading back to the size zero era? With Hollywood’s red carpets filled with ultra-thin bodies, speculation about weight-loss drugs like Ozempic is everywhere. As the conversation around health shifts back to extreme weight loss, we examine the impact of Ozempic-fueled diet culture and the resurgence of toxic beauty standards. Protein obsession isn’t slowing down—from powders to high-protein snacks, demand is booming. But do we really need more? We break down the science, the hidden risks in protein powders, and whether meat snacks are a gym-goer’s dream or just another processed food trap. Stress isn’t just in your head—it’s in your body. Hair loss, gut issues, and unexplained breakouts could all be signs of silent stress. We reveal seven warning signals of chronic stress and the small, science-backed ways to break the cycle before it takes a toll. Plus, nature vs. nurture—how much of our health is genetics versus lifestyle? A major new study suggests we have far more control over our long-term well-being than we think.

  • The Extra Scoop: Bloating
    Mar 6 2025
    Bloating—uncomfortable, frustrating, and often a mystery. But how much of it is actually normal? In this episode, we cut through the noise and get straight to the facts. With bloating now fueling a billion-pound industry, countless products promise relief. But do they really work, or is the solution far simpler? What really causes bloating? Are quick-fix supplements worth it, or just clever marketing? Can stress, diet, or even tight clothing make it worse? To help separate fact from fiction, we’re joined by Catherine Rabess, a Registered Dietitian specialising in gastroenterology and complex nutrition support. Catherine is the Clinical Lead Dietitian for NHS Nutrition and Dietetic Service in South West London, and helps clients on a 1-1 basis inside the Rhitrition Clinic.

Thank goodness!

It really is about time that we had a podcast that allows people to feel normal. It’s a real theme through this first episode about how social media can make you feel really inferior and I totally see that, so hearing women say ‘it’s not real!!’ is so refreshing.
We all have our own stuff to deal with so trying to navigate around health, diet, social interactions and work can be tricky and I felt truly empowered and energised after listening. I also learnt something that’s always worried me regards calories and how our body uses or doesn’t use them, so a massive ‘thank you’ for making this easy to listen to, enjoyable and informative.

Different, informative, chatty

There are so many great things about this new format podcast with Ella and her good friend - however, I get distracted and irritated by their vocal fries - such a shame. Anyone under 30 will probably deal with it or not even notice it. I have to listen to it on my own or volume turned down when I’m with my family as they mock the vocal fries. . However, the content is great and well worth listening too. They are both enthusiastic, relaxed, informative, modest, highly educated in nutrition and wellness and experienced in this field, so even if you know a lot on this subject, it is still good listening.
