Three Foods You Think Are Healthy (But Are Slowly Harming You)

Welcome to "Thriving in Midlife Redefining Aging with Wellness" the podcast where we discuss how to live an extraordinary life in every aspect. I'm your host, Kellie Lupsha, a high-performance health coach, who is delighted to be your guide to vitality. In this episode, we dive into three everyday foods that have a healthy reputation but are quietly sabotaging your energy, your gut, and even your long-term wellness with hidden toxins and harmful additives. These are foods we’ve all trusted, served to our families, and reached for thinking we were making smart choices, but the truth is, they’re working against our health in ways most of us never saw coming. If you're curious about what's really in your food and how small swaps can make a big difference, this episode might be for you. Key Highlights: Why microwaved popcorn may be one of the most toxic “snacks” you can eat Why something as simple as popcorn changes dramatically depending on how you make it. Meat glue as second toxic food people are eating. The hidden ingredient in deli meats and ground beef that most people don’t even know exists. How flavored Greek yogurt went from health food to sugar bomb Why marketing often makes “healthy” look convincing—but misleading Key Takeaways: "Meat glue is all the parts of the cow, including the bones that we don't use typically. They grind them up, bleach them... create a sticky stuff... and then they just mix it in with the meats." -Dr. Heidi “Raise your awareness of marketing, of what we're being fed out there, of you being able to make better choices for yourself." -Kellie Lupsha FREE GIFT 🎁 Grab my Mini-Course here to get you started in creating habits to regain your Energy in 3 simple steps.⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Grab Here! 1️⃣ JOIN US IN THE WOMEN’S LONGEVITY & WELLNESS HUB!
