Overview
Processed foods and takeout have become staples in our modern diets, despite these foods often driving inflammation and degrading our health. The good news is that cooking real food and meal planning can actually be easier and cheaper in the long run.
In today’s episode, I talk with Dr. Rangan Chatterjee, Jill Shah, Vani Hari, and Shawn Stevenson about rethinking and reframing our food choices. Dr. Rangan Chatterjee is regarded as one of the most influential doctors in the UK and wants to change how medicine will be practiced for years to come. He hosts the biggest health podcast in Europe, Feel Better, Live More, which Apple has announced as one of the most downloaded new podcasts of the past year. His first book, How to Make Disease Disappear, is an international bestseller. Jill Shah is the president of the Shah Family Foundation, which supports innovative and transformative work where education, healthcare, and community intersect in the city of Boston.
The foundation’s primary work and support is centered on Boston’s schools and community organizations, with the goal of broadly sharing the programs and solutions that prove successful. Vani Hari is the revolutionary food activist behind foodbabe.com, cofounder of organic food brand Truvani, and New York Times bestselling author of The Food Babe Way and Feeding You Lies. She has led campaigns against food giants like Kraft, Starbucks, Chick-fil-A, Subway, and General Mills that attracted more than 500,000 signatures and led to the removal of several controversial ingredients used by these companies.
Shawn Stevenson is the author of the international bestselling book Sleep Smarter and creator of The Model Health Show, featured as the number one health podcast in the US with millions of listener downloads each year. A graduate of the University of Missouri-St. Louis, Shawn studied business, biology, and nutritional science and went on to found Advanced Integrative Health Alliance, a company that provides wellness services for individuals and organizations worldwide.
