On today's episode of the Real Foodology podcast, it was like, okay, how do I feel alive, right?

And it was like real whole foods that come from the earth. And I just started incorporating that

and started eating just those. And that's when everything changed. Went off nine prescription

drugs, stopped having to diet, never had to worry about my skin anymore. Just totally changing the way I look and feel to the point where the people around me,

my friends and family were like, whoa, you look totally different.

We want a piece of what you're doing.

Hi friends, welcome back to another episode of the Real Foodology Podcast.

Today's episode is a very,

very special one. And that is because today's guest is one of my biggest inspirations in starting

Real Foodology in 2011, which is really wild. So you guys will hear the story in the beginning of this episode

and how impactful Vani Hari was on my own personal journey in really discovering my life's

purpose and what I wanted to do. So I am so incredibly grateful to all the work that Vani Hari

has put in the last, has been 12 years now.

That's really wild.

And this is a long time coming for her coming on the podcast.

And I'm so excited.

We talk about her story and how she got into the work that she's doing today and how she got really sick eating a standard American diet.

We talk about how companies reformulate their foods to be sold in other countries because a lot of

the ingredients that we use here in the United States are banned in other countries.

We also talk about artificial food dyes, natural flavors, how Monsanto came after her really aggressively, the USDA and FDA regulations,

and how they're not regulating as extensively as you might think, and so much more.

I really loved this episode, and I think you guys are going to really enjoy this one.
