Show Notes:
From Olympics To Medicine - 04:54
I'm so glad to see you again. I had the opportunity to come on one of your podcasts and I love to get into that a little bit too as we have this conversation.
Misinformation In Marketing - 15:21
But what I also really wanted was hoping we could talk about is the misinformation that is so commonplace and marketing speak and products that are being marketed.
Society Of Five - 19:32
So let's just what are the Society of five? What are the five things that I've got my pen out.
Non-GMO Products - 24:10
When we're talking about something like corn, I've had people come back to me and say well what about the non-GMO corn or the organic certified corn? Because that isn't problematic right?
Product Labeling Laws - 26:29
You mentioned at the beginning trans fats, which are partially hydrogenated oils often that in now we have these mandatory labeling laws.
Understanding Excitotoxins - 28:12
Excited toxins? This is the first time I've really talked about that on this show or the other show I host.
Sugar Moderation - 29:53
we have number one was trans fats two was excitotoxins like MSG three was corn and all of its forms. That's four. sugar five less gas That's my pearls I know.
Government Policies And Cultural Shift - 39:54
As it stands. I know there's a personal responsibility to a lot of this but I do feel that government. Has a place and helping to dictate the policies and the information that reaches us even developing the simple food plate to help us see on a plate what we're supposed to eat when they give a meal.
GMOs - 45:21
and so like we might be leading to number five now.
Financial Support - 52:49
I want to close before ask you what kind of one last question to round this up to talk about the first topic I introduced which is what government is actually doing. I'm always skeptical of what that will actually come through with the specialty when the FDA is involved.
New Food - 55:44
I will tell you I'm not likely to give up my taco Tuesdays so I do eat some corn.
