My Own Hypocrisy | The Body Shaming Double Standard - 1321
Dr. Rhonda Patrick just told Mel Robbins to stop putting bananas in your blueberry smoothie, but the study behind her claim has a catch almost nobody is mentioning. It's not the only trusted expert claim getting exposed this week either: The New York Times just uncovered AI clones of Dr. Mary Claire Haver and Dr. Kelly Casperson selling supplements they never actually endorsed.
Meanwhile, Camille Kostek, Charli D'Amelio, and Ariana Grande are all getting torn apart online over their bodies, and Chalene admits she's been guilty of the exact double standard she's calling out. Why do we judge weight loss so differently than weight gain? And what is Ariana Grande's new video Petal really saying about fame, control, and criticism?
Topics discussed: Dr. Rhonda Patrick, Mel Robbins, Mars, CocoaVia, The New York Times, Dr. Mary Claire Haver, Dr. Kelly Casperson, Mazymes, BiOptimizers, Camille Kostek, Charli D'Amelio, Ariana Grande, Sports Illustrated, GLP-1, Ozempic, eating disorders, obesity.

π¨ Questions Chalene Wants Your Thoughts on:
- Do you take a doctor's claim at face value because of their credentials and following, or do you go pull the actual study yourself?
- Have you ever seen a supplement ad and wondered if the "doctor" endorsing it was even real?
- Have you ever caught yourself judging a woman's body one way when she's too thin and a completely different way when she's overweight?
