Let's talk nutrition, sis

For those looking to level up their health game, nutrition is a major key. However, factors like toxic diet culture, limited access to nutrient-rich foods, a lack of exercise and more can make maintaining a healthy diet difficult. This is especially true for Black and Latina women, who are disproportionally impacted by chronic diet-related illnesses.

For National Nutrition Month, we're ditching the flat tummy teas and misinformation, and finding ways to create a more positive culture around food, health and wellness.

We asked few nutritionists and dietitians weigh in on how we can all create a healthier relationship with food.
