“What I have a problem with is when people use fear-based conspiratorial language to scare the shit out of you.”
Friend, it’s safe to say most of us have had the shit scared out of us on social media with some new claim about what’s in our food (or isn’t in our food!)
Well Dr. Jessica Knurick isn’t having it and with science on her side she is here to share her thoughts on what is going on right now in public health, the wellness industry, and beyond.
In the first part of this chat, Dr. Jessica breaks down the difference between public health and individual wellness, the issues with ultra-processed foods, and the role that government policies and corporate interests play in shaping our food environment.
I was able to walk away from this chat with a lot of new information that MADE SENSE so I know you’ll feel the same way after hearing from Dr. Jessica.
Ultimately, the goal with these chats is to introduce you to someone who may think differently than you or has experience that is different than your own. Learning from someone like Dr. Jessica can empower you to make informed decisions about your health and public health policies.
In Part 2 we chat about why the wellness industry has exploded in recent years and the changes we can make to keep ourselves (and our neighbors) healthy. Don’t miss it!

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
