Love this. You're absolutely right about the need for some humility, but also for followers to do their own due diligence about how much power/credit they give to influencers or gurus. Lots of food for thought in this one!
This is a wonderful post. I am an MD who was not formally trained in nutrition science but have a deep interest in a healthy lifestyle and yummy, accessible nutrition. Thank you for walking this line between cultural/social media influence, respect for the evolving nature of scientific knowledge, and straight up ego. Please consider submitting this piece for publication in a broader platform- NYTimes??

Thanks, Anela! The more aware we all are, the better!
