A deep dive into #SkinnyTok

Liv Morrison is an accredited clinical dietitian & nutritionist. As Kic’s in-house dietitian, Liv approves every recipe you see in the Kic app. This time of year is notorious for fad diets and toxic health messages about restriction and deprivation, so this week we wanted to set the record straight. We asked Liv about how we can eat better, including adding foods in, instead of taking them out, the importance of eating a variety of different foods, the benefits of each macronutrient (protein, fat & carbs), our hunger and satiety hormones, and more. KIC UPDATE Our 4-week Feel-Good Challenge is on now. Choose from strength, Pilates or HIIT with 3 x brand new workouts per week and 1 x meditation per week.
