In this episode of Better with Dr. Rock, Dr. Matthew Kettman welcomes a very special guest—his wife, Christina—for a heartfelt and practical conversation on healthy living and clean eating. Christina shares her journey from a criminology graduate and corporate professional to a full-time mom and wellness advocate, driven by a passion for nutrition and homemade, whole foods.
Together, they explore the real-life benefits of ditching processed foods, artificial sweeteners, and harmful oils in favor of simple, nourishing ingredients. Christina offers tips for eating well on a budget, planning meals with purpose, and navigating confusing food labels with helpful tools like the Bobby Approved and Yucca apps.
Beyond the kitchen, the episode dives into reducing chemical exposure in everyday life—touching on homemade cleaning products, natural alternatives to plastics and Teflon, and choosing high-quality eggs and meats. Christina leaves listeners with this empowering reminder: sometimes the harder path is the healthier one.
