The Antisocial Doctors Podcast · Mar 5, 2026 · 53m · transcript

In this episode we ask whether “#WhatIEatInADay” videos are actually helpful. We unpack the implicit health and identity claims these posts make, why they’ve become so viral, and how trends like mukbang fit into the broader landscape of food content online. We review what the research tells us about the accuracy of nutrition-related content and the consequences of consuming it. Finally, we share practical takeaways for listeners, parents, and clinicians, including how we bring these conversations into patient care and why screening for disordered eating matters.
