“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!
