On today's episode, I'm joined by a nutritionist and food author of multiple bestsellers, including

food politics, soda politics, and her latest book, Slow Cooked.

She goes into detail about the health of ultra-processed foods and veganism, compares artificial

sweeteners and hard sodas, and brings into question as to who our federal food agencies

really represent.

You're going to want to sit down for this one, guys, so without further ado, here is my

No, I'm glad to be here.

Let's just get right into it.

I want to start with a statistic from the CDC, and this is from 2020.

It says 41.9% of adults meet the criteria for obesity, 19.7% of children meet the criteria

for obesity, and 12.7% of two to five-year-olds meet the criteria for obesity.

Now, I just wanted to start this off because you've written food politics, soda politics,

unsavory truth, and your new book, Slow Cooked.

Tell me with all of this information out there, how is it possible that we're going backwards

and becoming more unhealthy?

The statistic that I like the best that I think is most shocking is that 74% of American

adults are overweight by CDC standards, 40% meet criteria for obesity, but 75% of Americans

are overweight.

That's a majority, a big majority, and it means that overweight has become normal in

our society.
