They said sugar was the villain. But behind the scenes, Big Meat and Big Dairy were pulling the strings—shifting blame to protect their profits. In this eye-opening episode of Healthspiracy, we reveal how government guidelines got hijacked, how fake experts pushed meat as medicine, and how real science was buried under bacon grease.
We call out the loudest voices in the carnivore craze, expose the industry-funded lies, and break down the serious health and climate risks tied to meat and dairy. If you’ve been told fruit is dangerous and steak is a superfood—this episode is your wake-up call.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
