About this episode

The episode discusses the reliability of AI for diet advice and reviews gluten-free products available in Australian supermarkets.

Leanne Ward and Susie Burrell give their honest dietitian verdict on using AI for diet advice, including what it genuinely helps with, where it gets things dangerously wrong, and why it will never replace personalised nutrition support. Plus: a comprehensive guide to the best gluten-free products in Australian supermarkets right now, a Health Lab protein bar with white chocolate as the first ingredient put under the microscope, and practical budget eating advice for anyone who has just left home.
