   (BONUS) Diet Culture Is Exhausting (And I’m Starving)

   In this episode, Daman scrubs in to perform an emergency"logic-tomy" on the world of diet culture. From the absurdity of "charcoal detoxes" to the actual science of why your brain stops working when you skip the sourdough, we’re getting honest about why trying to "bio-hack" your body is a losing game. Daman breaks down the physiological stress of cortisol, the psychological trap of the scarcity mindset, and answers your most unhinged listener emails about butter-filled coffeeand carnivore diets. What You’ll Learn: * The Liver’s PR Crisis:Why you don't need a "cleanse" unless you’re actually in the ICU. The Science of the Suck: Howrestriction triggers cortisol spikes and "Low Power Mode" in yourbrain. The Binge-Restrict Loop: Whylabeling food "forbidden" is the fastest way to hyper-fixate on it. Prescription for this week: Eat a sandwich, take anap, and stop taking medical advice from people who only own ring lights. #NurseBeHonest #DietCultureIsExhausting #NurseLife #AntiDiet#HealthAtEverySize #ScienceNotFads #EndTheTrend #IntuitiveEating #NurseHumor#BodyHomeostasis On Cortisol and Metabolism:Singh, B., & Maurya, N.

   In this episode of Nurse Chat Diaries, we discuss the arrest of Justin Adkins, who authorities allege used online platforms like Snapchat and Roblox to contact and groom a minor in Florida.
