Are your thoughts about food quietly hijacking your everyday life?

Could the way you’re eating actually be stressing your body out instead of nourishing it?

In this insightful episode of me&my health up, host Anthony Hartcher sits down with registered dietitian and behavioral nutrition expert Tamar Samuels to unpack the nuanced world of disordered eating. Together, they explore how stress, social media, and a hyperfocus on “healthy” eating can unintentionally lead to digestive issues, emotional distress, and a disrupted relationship with food. 

Tamar shares practical strategies like food-mood tracking, setting intentions before meals, and creating distraction-free eating environments. She also explains why personalized nutrition—rooted in behavioral science—is essential to break free from obsession and find balance. 

Whether you’re navigating GI symptoms, emotional eating, or just trying to tune back into your body, this episode offers actionable tips and compassionate insight.
