Episode 342: Balancing Nutrition and Social Life with David Page
On this episode of the Flex Diet Podcast, I’m joined by award-winning journalist and food nerd David Page, the guy who created Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. We get into the wild evolution of American cuisine, the social role of food, and how to balance eating what you love with not tanking your health. David also shares his personal story with diabetes and weight loss, plus some practical cooking tips you can actually use. It’s part history lesson, part food therapy, and a whole lot of fun. Don’t forget to check out the sponsors and subscribe to my free daily newsletter for nerdy nuggets on nutrition, training, and metabolism—plus a free gift just for signing up.
