WIDLIMS - What I Didn't Learn in Medical School
Health & Fitness:Medicine
This week's guest is Amaeze Madukah, a nutritionist in the UK. Prompted by an Instagram post of hers about how diet advice is often Euro-centric, I wanted to further explore the topic with her, and am grateful that she came on the show. Listen to learn about implicit bias and power distance, how these mean that certain populations receive suboptimal healthcare advice and what healthcare practitioners should keep in mind when giving advice to people from different ethnic backgrounds. We also chatted about other aspects relating to culture, food and language - I hope you enjoy the content and learn something new. Sorry for the slightly iffy sound quality this week!
