Summary

Colleen Kavanagh, founder of Zego, has dedicated her career to improving nutrition quality in food to provide the foundational wellness people and communities need to thrive. In her early career, she worked in politics to improve child nutrition programs like school lunch, WIC and Food Stamps for Cong. George Miller, and later as Director of California Food Policy Advocates. Seeking a more effective leverage point to improve nutrition from soil to table, Colleen launched ZEGO LLC. ZEGO makes pure and nutritious whole food breakfast and snack products accessible to everyone, including those with severe allergies and food intolerances. Colleen’s mission with ZEGO is simply, yet revolutionary. She seeks to inspire rapid changes to clean the food system by establishing that consumers have the right to know if there is toxic residue in their food before they consume it. In today’s episode, Colleen and I discuss the surprising truths about food regulation. Colleen teaches about current food requirements and the lack of transparency and important testing, while sharing how consumers can vote with their dollars to inspire change.
