Food Trauma & Diet Myths: Healing Your Relationship with Food + The Truth About Diet Soft Drinks & Creatine - The Nutrition Couch

How would you describe your relationship with food? For many women, it’s complicated — shaped by childhood diets, family comments, or decades of restriction that leave deep imprints on how we eat today.

In this week’s Nutrition Couch, Susie and Leanne open up the conversation on food trauma:

• What it is, how it starts, and the hidden ways it can sabotage eating patterns and weight goals.

• Why early experiences like dieting with your mum or comments from a grandparent can echo into adulthood.

• The first steps to bringing awareness and healing so you can finally enjoy food without guilt or fear.

We also unpack two big nutrition talking points making headlines:

• New research on diet soft drinks — why one diet soda a day may raise type 2 diabetes risk even more than sugary soft drink, and what this means for everyday choices.

• Creatine and kidney health — is it really dangerous? We break down the science and bust one of the most persistent supplement myths.

Plus, we share a new wholefood snack bar find that might just earn a spot in your trolley.

Whether you’re navigating food struggles, curious about the latest health research, or just looking for practical dietitian-approved advice, this episode is packed with insights to support both your health and your mindset.
