Opinions on the Food Medic (Dr Hazel Wallace)?
I hope this is in the correct circle.
Hi, all. I was recommended the Food Medic as a podcast to listen to with regards to women's health and nutrition. What are your thoughts on her?
I was scrolling through the YouTube comments of a video of Wallace on another woman's podcast, and a few dissatisfied female commenters were (rightly) lamenting the five-minute "inclusive" mention/disclaimer(?) of TIMs (they were clearing up what "kind" of "women" they were talking about). It put me off a little, especially for a video that supposedly goes on about how women are not mini-men.
Aside from that, is she someone worth listening to?
I’d be concerned about a doctor meant to be talking about women’s health who includes TIMs in that. It may mean she views other things as a ‘spectrum’ that aren’t actually a spectrum and are female-specific and notably different to men.
Yeah, that's what I've been thinking. I've been um-ing and ah-ing about whether I should give her ago, might look at a few things she's done, but my hopes aren't high.
