25 - 400 Lbs to Fit at 51: The Food Lies That Almost Killed Me
from F Your Feelings Podcast · host Silly Boy Studios
At 400 pounds, Eric thought he was just "big-boned." Turns out the American food supply was slowly killing him. In this episode, the boys unpack Eric's decade-long journey from morbidly obese to fit at 51; no Ozempic, no medications, no shortcuts. Just the truth about what's actually in the food we're eating. We get into the 1958 GRAS loophole that lets food companies self-certify their own ingredients, why Europe has 400 legal additives, and America has up to 10,000, the Big Tobacco companies that bought Big Food in the 80s and engineered addiction into your cereal, and why sugar is as addictive as heroin. Plus: the Ozempic debate, the Big Pharma trap, RFK Jr. and Red Dye 40, and why Hippocrates had it right 2,000 years ago.This one's personal. If you've ever felt sick, tired, or foggy and couldn't figure out why, it might be on your plate.#foodindustry #healthjourney #weightloss #rfkjr #ozempic #comedypodcast #genx
