Description

In this eye-opening podcast episode, we delve into the controversial world of influencer dietitians and their partnerships with the multibillion-dollar food industry. A viral TikTok by the Washington Post exposes the ties between dietitians and soda giants like Coca-Cola, sparking outrage and questions about ethics. We explore the WHO's concerns about artificial sweeteners like aspartame and the role of influencers in clarifying the science. Discover the blurred lines of disclosure in influencer partnerships, the impact of government regulation, the challenges of online information, and how to navigate world of health influencers. You'll leave this podcast with the information to form an opinion on the questions, "Are Dietitians actually corrupt?" and "Is this scandal actually as it seems?"Follow Mallory on Instagram by clicking HERE.
