Every week, a new diet makes the headlines — from Keto and Paleo to detox cleanses and AI-powered meal plans. While each promises quick results and a “perfect” approach to health, the truth is far more nuanced.

They can leave people feeling frustrated, confused, or even deprived, making sustainable healthy habits harder to maintain.

In this episode of The Wellness Algorithm, we are joined by Vidhi Chawla, leading dietitian and functional nutrition expert. Together, we dive into what really works for the body and mind, separating temporary fads from evidence-based strategies that support lasting health and weight management.
