There’s no way to skirt around this one: dairy has gotten a really bad rap in the health and nutrition space.
But why?
And how do we know that what we’re hearing from so-and-so “influencer” on social media or watching in documentaries on Netflix is, in fact, true?
I am so ready to dive into the inner workings of our agricultural industry here in the United States, and who better to guide us than Lauren Twigge, who is not only a Registered Dietitian, but actually grew up on a dairy farm and knows the ins and outs of this whole world firsthand?
Lauren reminds us that farming and the dairy industry is a lot more nuanced than our current food culture portrays, that dairy can absolutely be part of a healthy diet, and that just because something is “gluten and dairy free” does not mean it’s inherently “healthy.”
In this episode, Lauren does NOT hold back in uncovering some of the biggest nutrition hypocrisies out there surrounding the science behind dairy and inflammation, organic versus conventional farming, and raw milk. And let me tell you, I am so here for it.
Pull up a seat and lend your ears to Lauren’s expertise and highly personal connection to this sensitive, and often misinterpreted topic.
