#126 - Food or Poison? With Justin Nault

The Mental Dietician

In this weeks episode of The Mental Dietician, Ahren Lynch-Potter has an unfiltered, straight-up conversation with Justin Nault. Justin shares his story of growing up in the 90s as the “fat kid,” living off junk food, and battling body image issues, to becoming a leading nutritional therapist with nearly a million followers on his social media platforms. His core message is simple: it’s about choosing “food over poison” to fuel your health and happiness.
But this episode goes way beyond food. Justin opens up about the deep stuff—childhood struggles, using food to cope, and how self-love is the foundation for real, lasting change. He and Ahren talk honestly about breaking unhealthy cycles, dealing with trauma, and why vulnerability isn’t weakness, but strength—especially in relationships. Justin also shares a new chapter in his life: preparing to become a dad and everything that comes along with that!
If you’re ready to ditch the BS, take a hard look at your habits, and learn how to create a better, healthier life for yourself, this episode is packed with truth and heart.
