About Rethinking Wellness
Rethinking Wellness offers critical thinking and compassionate skepticism about wellness and diet culture, and reflections on how to find true well-being. We explore the science (or lack thereof) behind popular wellness diets, the role of influencers and social-media algorithms in spreading wellness misinformation, problematic practices in the alternative- and integrative-medicine space, how wellness culture often drives disordered eating, the truth about trending topics like gut health, how to avoid getting taken advantage of when you’re desperate for help and healing, and how to care for yourself in a deeply flawed healthcare system without falling into wellness traps. rethinkingwellness.substack.com (https://rethinkingwellness.substack.com?utm_medium=podcast)

It's like, hey, here's what you should be scared of, and here's our fix for you. And biohacking and having the wearable watch, phone, heart rate monitor, ankle strap, chin strap, whatever it's going to be, you know, feels like, you know what, I'm taking control of this. Like I am controlling my own fate. And I think that's comforting to a lot of folks in and especially dudes. Yeah. And it doesn't have the sort of like aesthetic trappings that I think weight loss diets are that were marketed to women really did for such a long time. […]
