• Make America Healthy Again…Like, When Exactly?

  The Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) movement has garnered tremendous attention and amassed a huge following since its inception in the 2010s. Advocates of the movement frequently reference a desire to return to an earlier time in American history—when life was simpler, food was more wholesome, and overall wellness was supposedly at its peak. But were Americans truly healthier in decades past? And does looking to the past genuinely promote better health, or is it merely a distraction that keeps us mired in nostalgia? Join us, two Registered Dietitians, as we explore the complexities of the MAHA movement and examine whether we should truly desire to return to a bygone era of American health.  Want to support the show and get bonus episodes?

• The Rise of The U.S. Supplement Industry (Part 2)

  More adults in the U.S. are using dietary supplements than ever before. For decades, however, tensions have existed between the U.S. government, supplement manufacturers and consumers who all have different stances around the safety and efficacy of these products. But just how did dietary supplements become so mainstream? And how did such a massive industry largely avoid regulatory oversight? How could the supplement industry be poised to change and what should we think about when choosing dietary supplements? Join us, two Registered Dietians, for the first of a two part series as we explore the history, questionable practices and pitfalls of the U.S. supplement industry. Want to support the show and get bonus episodes?
