What Is “Food Noise” Really?

“Food Noise” was a relatively unused term until the recent rise of GLP-1RA medications. Now, social media is abuzz with claims of people ridding themselves of their “food noise” and companies are using this language to sell their own compounded GLP-1 drugs. But what is “food noise” really? And should this term only be used by certain people? Is some “food noise” normal or should we be trying to rid ourselves of it entirely? Join us, two Registered Dietitians, as we discuss the different definitions of “food noise” and dig into how to think about this new terminology.Want to support the show and get bonus episodes?
