In a nutshell, WIDLIMS is a platform for discussing topics crucial to health which are not taught, glossed over or approached from the wrong angles in medicine and public discourse. The host Linda's knowledge – as a final year medical student – combined with valuable input from guests provides you with accessible and most importantly empowering evidence-based information on topics within the field of lifestyle medicine. In addition, you can expect in-depth mental health discussions, for example when considering body image & disordered eating in diet culture, as well as health inequalities due to variables such as race & gender which affect health behaviours and outcomes. We'll also discuss specific health conditions such as acne, anxiety and anorexia. DISCLAIMER: this podcast is for educational & entertainment purposes only.

In episode 19 of What I Didn't Learn in Medical school, host and final year medical student chats to Bettina about her experience of being diagnosed with anorexia at 15 and eventually recovering. We cover some important things in terms of how she was treated by healthcare professionals, and what things help someone in eating disorder recovery and beyond.
It is important to listen to those with actual lived experience of a condition, and not end up forgetting what matters to the actual person at the core of it all. This is why I am so grateful that Bettina shares her story and tips with us all today. Be sure to check out her podcast, Best of Bettina as well as the episode where I was interviewed giving my thoughts on how eating disorder education in medical school is. It was titled ”Eating disorders don’t have a look” and can be found here.
