This week on the Gutsy Chick podcast, Aimee Gallo is back for round three—and we’re going full MythBusters on the nutrition advice we’ve all been fed for decades. From the truth about salt, eggs, and dairy to why the food pyramid was basically a marketing campaign disguised as science, we’re pulling back the curtain on what really supports your health (and what’s just industry BS).
