Sadia's words on diet culture are so potent. It's very easy to allow toxicity to enter different aspects of our life, but we must protect our approach to food and nutrition from that at all costs since it is quite literally what sustains and nourishes us. To think, that many people who contribute to toxic diet culture would consider all the food you ate today unhealthy because they so heavily vilify carbs- which are the brain's fuel source! Sadia's approach is amazing and she is an important voice on social media- especially with plant based eating sometimes reaching these aforementioned levels of toxicity.

[@julesandmusic]

man, nutrition is so cool

[@Wwetitanfan27]

with there only being 3 macronutrients, it's scary that so many people are scared of one of them. many are scared of 2

[@victoriabutler11]

👏👏

[@xXBenutzer235Xx]

You have to remember though that carbs arent the only "fuel source" for the brain. And while being afraid of them surely isn't helpful in any way, they have often shown to be the source of a lot of harm. Depends on where you get them from among other things of course but unlike fats, carbs deserve their kind of bad reputation in a lot of cases.

[@ishakxrabidi]

1:37 The part where she says that judgment, guilt, criticism, and shame should never be the basis of a dietary change really stood out to me. I wish they would've elaborated on that point more.

[@MissieK]

She has a video called Making peace with food she talks more about it

Sadia, I wanted to say to you how much I enjoyed this perspective of you and your thoughts in the video. Nathaniel drew out ;) a side of you we don’t get to see. It was so good to hear you both converse about some of the ideas behind the rationale for your channel and life, I guess. Thank you to all of you.

UGH, this collab is GIVING ME SO MUCH LIFE :D

[@luismoreiralm]

It is so amazing ☺️☺️

[@abbyh6948]

I really loved what Sadia said about being non judgemental when it comes to our own eating habits - got to fight what social media tells us and be compassionate to ourselves ☺️

[@CarloPavan]

So true! It's so important :)

[@TotalGoatHead]

I think that's how it should be too, people are so worried about one another not being like themselves and people get caught up in a lot of nonsense. We should just enjoy our time here and not worry about such little things, life has a lot more to it, and there are plenty of diets and ways of eating that are healthy which are also person-dependent. So yeah I completely agree

[@abbyh6948]

It is refreshing to have these kind of conversations online!

[@lil_big_mack]

Why am I crying over her telling him not to feel guilty for eating ravioli? Amazing

[@lianafantasy]

Best collab ever - Sadia has helped my relationship with food so much, I’m not plant based but her videos are such an amazing base of what nutrition and self care looks like.

[@Wwetitanfan27]

I'd think your plate has a higher percentage of plants than it did before though, no?

[@MissieK]

I agree. I'm not a vegan and I do consume animal products. I grew up in a household though that we didn't base the meal around meat so it was more like a two meals per week thing. But Sadia has helped me find way to add more vegetables and things in my lifestyle and learn more. What I also love about her is that she doesn't judge she just supports and wants people to learn something. Her channel brings me comfort and makes me love food and not feel judged for what I eat.

[@tee_jadee]

Every time Nathaniel and Sadia do something together my heart just explodes! Love both of them SO MUCH. Seeing them interact is such a treat!

[@whyDUSTY]

The energy and the smile of Sadia are so goodhearted and loving. Really enjoyed the video, especially because I feel like I have a lot of judgement going on concerning foods. So it was a very nice reminder. Thank you Nathaniel!

[@anastasiataran6722]

More colab videos?! YES PLEASE! You guys are both very inspiring. Your videos are like a break from the loudness of everyday life. I wish you the best.

[@cenkceylan3542]

I've really enjoyed this. I kinda want more of the "healthy lifestyle" content. And also I want to add, your videos are really mentally comforting. I don't know why exactly; maybe it is the type of music used or editing or everything, in general, I don't know but it's always super chill to watch your videos. Great quality, great content, thanks a lot!

I even feel a little silly sharing this, but today while filling a form for my future job position (which starts in a week) there was this question: "If you were able to change lives with someone famous for one day, who would it be?" and after a few minutes thinking I decided to answer that I would like to change lives with you haha Not because I feel like my life is bad or because I'm unhappy, but because yours looks like such a purposeful and adventurous life, and I think this is extremely inspiring for everyone who watches your videos! Every video and every story you tell us inspire me to keep chasing the goals I have and to keep pursuing the life I want to have while still enjoying everything that is happening right now, in the present moment. Thanks a lot for that!

[@indrajit_j]

I think my favourite part of this video was that the simple steps to eating better were less about what foods to eat and not eat, but were more about how to approach food and eating as a whole. Of course Sadia did walk us through food groups and how to have a balanced meal but I definitely think the way she pushed away the culture that the diet industry has developed (e.g. by avoiding terms like 'superfood' and 'toxin'), as well as her compassion (i.e. telling Nathaniel to not be judgmental of himself even when we all know he could do better than eating canned ravioli) are also major takeaways that shouldn't be overlooked. Nathaniel and Sadia - beautiful video! I know you've done a lot of videos together already but I can't wait to see your next collab 💚
