Food Travel USA with Elizabeth Dougherty

Album: The TRUTH About Food and Travel 062325
Episode #: 
Original Broadcast Date: 06/23/2025

Once hailed as a heart-healthy miracle, oats have become the darling of breakfast tables, fitness influencers, and plant-based marketers. But what if the entire oat industry is built on shaky science and shady marketing? In this segment, Elizabeth reveals the hidden story behind America’s obsession with oats—how corporate lobbying distorted nutritional science and how most oat-based foods are loaded with sugar, preservatives, and glyphosate residues. The halo effect around oats comes from a few well-placed studies decades ago, but the real story is far more processed. Oat milk, in particular, often contains more additives than actual oats. And that “heart-healthy” claim? It only applies to whole oats—and even then, the benefits are marginal. This feature peels back the cozy, comforting image of oats and exposes how you’ve been sold a lie. Whether you’re eating oatmeal for breakfast or sipping oat milk in your coffee, you may want to rethink what’s in your bowl.


FOOD TRAVEL USA FAST FACTS

About the Show

Using the chassis of a food and travel show, Elizabeth Dougherty has carved out her own lane in Talk Radio, covering the contamination of the food supply and the travel restrictions placed upon us by an overreaching government. The show also covers data protection, self-sufficiency, and homesteading-related topics to help protect us from this evil, corrupt system. With Elizabeth as the host, the show has a very different sound from the typical male-oriented talk radio. In combination with terrestrial stations that carry the show, we reach people who don't normally listen to politically-driven talk radio. In addition to the LIVE FEED of the show on Saturday afternoons from 5pm–7pm (Eastern) / 2pm–4pm (Pacific), we produce and distribute a dozen podcast segments each week.
