In this episode, we take a hard look at the latest changes to the food pyramid and ask the big question: are these updates finally rooted in real science—or just recycled nutrition dogma?

For decades, we were told things about food that turned out to be flat-out lies. From margarine being “healthier” than butter, to eggs being vilified for cholesterol, to fat-free everything being the key to weight loss—it turns out much of what we were taught was more marketing than science. In this episode, we’re digging into the myths we swallowed whole, uncovering who really benefited from the misinformation, and setting the record straight on what’s actually good for us.

Shares of high fructose corn syrup producer Archer-Daniels-Midlan fell on Thursday after President Donald Trump announced that he had persuaded Coca-Cola to use real cane sugar in its drinks in the U.S. “I have been speaking to Coca-Cola about using REAL Cane Sugar in Coke in the United States, and they have agreed to do so.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has now launched a safety label change warning of the dangers of Tylenol in pregnant mothers. The FDA also announced approval of leucovorin, a form of folic acid suggested as a treatment for autism symptoms. The medical community, in collusion with public health officials, has long pointed to a ‘blame-the-victim’ approach, saying it was just children with unlucky genetics – a nod to eugenics musings and insulting to families looking for answers.

President Donald Trump signed a memorandum directing Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to take action on pharmaceutical advertising. The United States is one of only two countries in the world that allow pharmaceutical companies to advertise directly to the consumer. The other one is New Zealand.

The U.S. government recommends 50 grams of protein per day based on a 2,000 calorie diet, an equivalent of 10% of your overall calories. This amount of protein is enough to keep you from looking emaciated, but not nearly enough to help you feel your best. There are multiple problems with the FDA’s one-size-fits-all protein recommendation. Being active or under high amounts of stress will increase your need for protein. Plus, protein fitness is crucial to thyroid function. If you want your thyroi...

When this barrier is healthy, it helps your brain maintain sharp thinking, stable mood, and healthy aging. When it is compromised, your whole b...

As artists, we often demand so much from ourselves—long nights, endless rehearsals, constant creating—without realizing that our bodies need proper fuel to keep up with our vision.
