Episode 26: The Truth About So-Called Toxic Foods

The wellness world loves a villain, especially on social media, where sensationalism gets all the attention and sells. And over the years, seed oils, artificial sweeteners, dairy, and gluten have all had their turn in the hot seat. But how much of the fear around these foods is actually backed by science? And how much of it is just noise?In this episode, we break down each of these so-called problem foods, where the real nuance lives, and why context and quantity matter so much more than most people realize. We also get real about something that doesn't get talked about enough: how fear and hyperfixation around food can create unnecessary stress in the body, and why that stress itself can drive symptoms that have nothing to do with what you're actually eating. At the end of the day, blanket rules only get you so far. Learning to listen to your own body and adjust accordingly will always reign supreme.Loved this episode?
