The US culture surrounding women and their bodies has made our lives difficult to navigate. I'm grateful that Gen Z females are into lifting weights verses being skinny. Now, I look at food and think does this have nutritional value for my body to function or is it just sugar. Keep on with your reels Dr. Haver. I'm here for them.

[droberts]

I love how you help us older women rethink and think! Love ya!

[whathuhreally]

So crazy to see your videos pop up in my feed. Your work is pretty amazing! The kids like watching your videos too. They’re proud of Aunt Mary!

[Leo-mrqz]

A completely different mindset. Which is spectacular!! ❤
I remember hearing you say somewhere that being skinny was your social currency. I could never articulate it that way, but it was always on the tip of my tongue. When you are younger, that is SO very true!! 😮

[Bodysense]

Strong it is ✨💪
Intuitive consuming is where I’m at now! From eating to everything else… Having our health as our top priorities helps with all the little changes… we are on a journey of learning one day at a time and I’m grateful to share this timeline with you to learn… Thank you for everything that you do and share! Sending
much love to your day❤️

Exactly what my physical therapist said about chronic back pain and activity!

I’m turning 40 this year and your channel has me thinking about perimenopause and menopause in a completely different light! I’m not as scared of it as I was, now knowing all the ways we can protect our bodies as we age. For one, I never cared about bone density when I was starving myself in my 20s and now I’m like oh honey let’s get that Calcium and Vitamin D3 😂

I look at food, and wonder if it's going to send me on a blood glucose rollercoaster. I'm learning, but it's a challenge. Evidently, I'm a bit hypersensitive to carbs.

[donnadavis]

Hey there, this simple thought could be life changing for me. Love. Ive always made food the Vilian or the hero. Great way to rephrase. Love it. 70 here, I need strong!❤❤❤

[GildaLee]

Thank you for this. Small habits can make a big difference. Love you Dr Haver❤

[willothewispl]

After listening to some of your podcast’s I find myself doing this too.

[terripurciello]

Great mindset! Reframes attitude toward food for sure!

[lissetsanchez]

Thank you! Love that perspective in how to see food.

[ladymax]

I look at food now and say, is this going to give me heart palpitations, keep me from sleeping, raise my blood pressure? Bottomline, I am going to pay for this, and is it worth it?

[jennieoh]

We buy organic as much as possible and eat whole foods anti inflammatory diet as much as we can. Low on simple carbs and a little more complex carbs. I am gluten free and use very very little processed sugar.

[janineme]

Great way of thinking about food . Thank you for your videos and encouragement.

[NancyBennington]

Thank you 😢I needed this today. I just got diagnosed with prediabetes and I am motivated to avoid getting full blown diabetes. My doctor put me on metformin temporarily until I lose this crazy weight I've put on, I definitely want a healthy relationship with food and especially learning to lovey body. I hate menopause 😢

[huizy]

I have been similar to this Vanity brought this info to me and heathly kept me here!
