“I used to be the largest dairy consumer on the planet. I used to eat so much dairy and meat. The more that I looked into the dairy industry, the more that I saw that it was the singular, most inhumane industry on the planet, that we've all been lied to, including myself, for years. I always believed that the picture on the milk carton, the cow standing next to her calf in the green field with the red barn in the back was true. It’s certainly the complete opposite.” – Richard (Kudo) Couto Richard (Kudo) Couto is the founder of Animal Recovery Mission (ARM), an organization solely dedicated to investigating extreme animal cruelty cases. ARM has led high-risk undercover operations that have resulted in the shutdown of illegal slaughterhouses, animal fighting rings, and horse meat trafficking networks. Recently, they released a damning investigation into two industrial dairy farms outside of Phoenix, Arizona supplying milk to Coca-Cola’s Fairlife brand. What they uncovered was systemic animal abuse, environmental violations, and a devastating betrayal of consumer trust. While Fairlife markets its products as being sourced "humanely," ARM’s footage tells a very different story—one of suffering, abuse, and corporate complicity. Despite the evidence, this story has been largely ignored by mainstream media—likely due to Coca-Cola’s massive influence and advertising dollars.…

×Use code YDSAMPLE for a free snack pack from Skratch Labs! Support us on Patreon! Is organic food actually healthier—or just more expensive? This week on Your Diet Sucks , Zoë and Kylee break down the real science behind organic food, including what “organic” really means for produce, meat, and packaged snacks. We cover nutrition claims, pesticide exposure, antioxidant levels, and whether organic food impacts inflammation, gut health, or performance. We also dive into the environmental trade-offs of organic farming, the high cost of certification, and why that $19 strawberry feels morally superior. Plus: the truth behind the Dirty Dozen list, who really benefits from organic labels, and how to make food choices that work for your body and your budget.

But what do they actually do, and what happens when active people use them in pursuit of performance, health, or body change? In this episode, we unpack: The science behind semaglutides: how they work and what they were designed for What the research actually shows about weight loss, metabolism, and long-term health Why these drugs can complicate training, recovery, and fueling for athletes How weight stigma influences healthcare decisions — and who gets prescribed what The risks of under-fueling, muscle loss, and GI side effects in active populations Why we need more nuance (and more data) before calling these meds a game-changer We also dig into the cultural conversation: how fitness spaces are responding to the rise of these drugs, and what it says about how we view bodies, performance, and health.

Support us on Patreon! Follow us on Instagram @yourdietsuckspod ! This week, Kylee and Zoë take a deep dive into ultra-processed foods: what they are, where they came from, how they’re designed to light up your brain’s reward systems, and what role they play in athletic nutrition. We talk about everything from cereal meant to prevent sinning to the low-fat diet craze, the war-time origins of shelf-stable food, and the engineering behind the foods that are hyper-palatable. We also get into the landmark NIH study that showed just how much processing—not just calories or macros—can influence how much we eat, how full we feel, and how our bodies respond to food. This episode is about helping you understand the systems at play, so you can make choices that support your health and performance without getting caught in fear or shame about the food you eat. Because when it comes to ultra-processed foods, context matters—especially for athletes. 💥 This episode is fueled by: 🧪 Skratch Labs Whether you’re training, racing, or just trying to stay upright during a long day— real ingredients matter .

Support us on Patreon! This week on Your Diet Sucks , Kylee and Zoë take a hard look at health documentaries, specifically the cult classic Game Changers —aka, the boner experiment film—and other nutrition flicks that have people rethinking their entire diet for about a week. They break down why these documentaries always go full fear-mongering mode, how they cherry-pick studies to push an agenda, why they obsess over masculinity and strength, the biggest nutrition myths they keep pushing, and how to actually fact-check food and health claims so you don’t get duped. Plus, Zoë does what she does best: fact-check their questionable science in real-time, rage-Google studies, and ask the real questions—like, who decided we needed a documentary about penis blood flow? Hit play, grab your popcorn (or, I don’t know, a block of cheese like we did), and let’s get into it. Sponsors Janji – The only running shorts we trust, period.

Support us on Patreon! What happens when the pressure to perform collides with the pressure to look a certain way? This week, we’re tackling body image in sports and fitness—breaking down the differences between body dysmorphia, body dissatisfaction, and body dysmorphic disorder (BDD), and why athletes are especially vulnerable. From social media-fueled comparison traps (looking at you, Facetune) to toxic fitness culture and outdated coaching methods, we explore why so many athletes struggle with body image—and what actually helps. Plus, a deep dive into why traditional body positivity isn’t the answer and why frameworks like body neutrality, fat liberation, and radical body acceptance are changing the conversation. 💥 Spoiler: It’s not your body that’s broken—it’s the system.

Support us on Patreon! Follow us on Instagram! Your Diet Sucks is back, and today Zoë and Kylee are diving into the Wild Wild West of sports nutrition marketing—where sugar is the enemy, ketones are tactical, and somehow, gels need to be “guilt-free.” In this episode, we break down how sports nutrition marketing plays on fear, misinformation, and diet culture to sell you products that may or may not actually help you perform. We unpack why terms like “guilt-free” are designed to manipulate you (as if your fuel choices require moral absolution), how brands sneak in buzzwords like “clean” or “sugar-free” to stoke carb paranoia, and why influencer culture has turned sports nutrition into a race to see who can make the most dramatic, pseudoscientific claims. We also dig into the science—or lack thereof—behind metabolism-boosting formulas, carb-phobic electrolyte mixes, and products that promise you won’t experience GI distress (bold claim, considering we’ve all been betrayed by a burrito at some point). Hold onto your ketones—we’re debunking, demystifying, and dunking on pseudoscience. So what should you actually look for in a sports nutrition product? We got you. We break down how to separate marketing BS from real science, so you don’t end up under-fueled, overcharged, or spending $5 on a single gram of carbs. Thanks to our sponsors, Janji and Microcosm Coaching!…
You came here for nutrition tips and maybe some good-natured dunking on diet fads—not a deep dive into politics. But here’s the thing: food and health are political. And with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. pushing his "Make America Healthy Again" (MAHA) agenda, it's impossible to ignore how his take on fitness, food, and public health is pulling people into his camp. On the surface, MAHA taps into real concerns—ultra-processed foods, chronic disease, corporate influence on health policy. But beneath the slogans, the movement leans hard on personal responsibility while offering little in the way of actual solutions. We’re not here to dunk on anyone for questioning the status quo—critical thinking is good! But when it comes to making America healthy, actually, we need solutions that go beyond slogans.

Join the Feisty Fueled Challenge! Kylee and Zoë wade into the murky waters of "racing weight"—a concept that’s been messing with athletes’ heads since the early days of endurance sports. From ancient Greek wrestlers sweating it out in bathhouses to modern-day endurance athletes chewing gum to spit out extra grams (yes, that’s a thing), the obsession with weight and performance has a long, bizarre history. We unpack the origins of this idea, critique the pseudoscience and harmful messaging it often comes with, and dig into why lighter doesn’t always mean faster. Along the way, we examine why weight has become such a fixation in endurance sports and how that obsession can derail not just your performance, but your overall health. Whether you’ve been told you need to hit an “ideal weight” to perform your best, or you’re just curious about why athletes fixate on the scale, this episode is a deep dive into why chasing racing weight can do more harm than good. Spoiler alert: You’re more than your power-to-weight ratio. Tune in for the history, the science, and the many reasons you don’t need a scale to measure your worth—or your speed. Plus, a surprising history lesson involving figs, bloodletting, and why we don’t recommend using Horny Goat Weed to prep for your next race.…

We debunk some popular superfood myths and examine the downsides of being hyper-reliant on any one food or ingredient when it comes to maximizing health and performance. Then, we walk through the foods with a strong base of evidence for improving athlete performance and adaptations. Plus, some spicy takes about bananas. Checkmate, atheists!…

Kylee and Zoë dive deep into the culture and science of biohacking, from cold plunges to Bulletproof coffee to see why we're all obsessed with the idea that "one weird trick" can have huge results. We unpack where the idea of biohacking came from, and how it has become a major factor in many athletes, especially men's diets. We'll look at some studies that show how the trend is feeding into many men's disordered relationships with food, and ask the question: is biohacking just another way for dudes to mask disordered eating under pseudoscience?…
