November 05, 2024 • Dana Sturtevant, Hilary Kinavey, Sirius Bonner

In this episode, Dana, Hilary and Sirius discuss the effects of GLP-1’s within the context of body trust and diet culture. They unpack the seduction of these drugs amid rising conversations around bodies and fatness, highlighting the harmful collaboration between the weight loss and eating disorder treatment industries. The hosts reflect on the stigmas and limitations of weight loss interventions. They emphasize the need for better research and more honest marketing to help folks make more informed decisions, and most importantly, they underline the urgency for community and safe spaces in which folks can address their relationship to food and body, pre and post weight loss intervention.
