  Can GLP-1s Treat Eating Disorders? One Woman’s Controversial Story Is Challenging Everything

  Sep 29, 202635 min

  In today’s episode of Bite Back with Abbey Sharp, I’m joined by author and eating disorder research advocate Paige Gordon, who lived with bulimia for 22 years before starting a low-dose GLP-1 medication that she says eliminated her drive to binge and purge. We explore whether biology, appetite signalling, and reward circuitry could play a larger role in some people’s eating disorders, and whether GLP-1 medications could eventually have a therapeutic role beyond weight loss. This is a nuanced conversation about food noise, bingeing, purging, recovery, and what Paige’s experience could mean for future eating disorder research. Here’s a run down of what we discussed in today’s episode: What Does the Urge to Binge and Purge Actually Feel Like? When Recovery Doesn’t Make the Food Noise Go Away What Changed After Starting a GLP-1? Can Different Causes Create the Same “Food Noise”? Did the GLP-1 Treat the Eating Disorder—or Suppress the Symptoms? What Does Recovery on a GLP-1 Actually Look Like? Could GLP-1s Ever Be Studied as a Treatment for Bulimia? Could Paige’s Story Be Misused by the Weight-Loss Industry? Are We Overcorrecting Toward a Biological Explanation? What Does the Research on GLP-1s and Eating Disorders Actually Show? ‍ RESEARCH LINKS: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1186/s40337-026-01634-6 https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39891848/ Check in with today’s amazing guest: Paige Gordon https://paigegordonauthor.com/ https://www.instagram.com/paigegordonauthor/ https://www.tiktok.com/@paigegordonauthor #GLP1 #bulimia #eatingdisorder #foodnoise #bingeeating #eatingdisorderrecovery — DISCLAIMER:The content in this episode is for educational and entertainment purposes only and is never a substitute for medical advice.

  The SURPRISING Truth About Butter, Saturated Fat & Health (The Research SHOCKED Me!) | Fat Wars Part 2

  Sep 22, 202634 min

  In today’s episode of Bite Back with Abbey Sharp, we’re back with Fat Wars — Part Two, turning our attention to butter, beef tallow, coconut oil, and the saturated fat comeback. We unpack the science behind saturated fat, cholesterol, and heart disease, including LDL, ApoB, and the controversial studies used to defend saturated fat. Plus, we explore why not all saturated fat sources are created equal and why what you replace butter with may be the most important part of the debate. Did butter deserve a correction, or has wellness culture taken its comeback too far? Here’s a run down of what we discussed in today’s episode: How Butter Made Its Big Comeback Cholesterol 101: LDL, HDL & ApoB Explained Are “Big Fluffy” LDL Particles Actually Safe? Does Raising HDL Cancel Out High LDL? Does Saturated Fat Really Cause Heart Disease? The Controversial Studies Behind Butter’s Comeback The Most Important Question: What Replaces Butter?

  Sep 15, 202627 min

  In today’s episode of Bite Back with Abbey Sharp, we’re kicking off Fat Wars — Part One with a deep dive into the controversial world of seed oils. We unpack the claims around omega-6 fats, inflammation, oxidation, and toxins, why seed oils have become synonymous with ultra-processed foods, and what the evidence actually says about their impact on our health.

And make sure to join us next week for Fat Wars — Part Two, where butter, coconut oil, beef tallow, and saturated fats take the stand. Here’s a run down of what we discussed in today’s episode: What Actually Counts as a Seed Oil? Do Omega-6 Seed Oils Cause Inflammation? Does the Omega-6 to Omega-3 Ratio Matter? Why Not All Seed Oils Are Created Equal Do Seed Oils Oxidize Into Toxins? The Real Problem With Deep-Fried Seed Oils Are Seed Oils Guilty by Association?
