In our latest episode we talk to Diarmuid Duggan, dietitian manager at Bon Secours Hospital Cork. Diarmuid specialises in the areas of cancer and obesity disease and he shares his unique insights into these two disease areas and how diet can impact their management.
Diarmuid also has a masters in cognitive and behavioural therapy and he talks about how we need to understand the unique emotional and social background each person brings to their interaction with food. He explains why weight and diet are such emotionally charged areas and why he believes in a non judgemental, person-centred approach.
Along the way we cover such hot topics as superfoods, supplements (yes Dinny!) and moving away from weight-based targets to performance and health targets.
We hope you enjoy the show.
