Episode Details

The First Lady of Nutrition welcomes Mira Dessy, aka “The Ingredient Guru” to expose some of the most toxic ingredients hiding in our foods today.  Together, Ann Louise and Mira blow the lid off of the most shocking facts—like how Splenda was originally designed as a bug killer and the bizarre ingredient made from beaver anal glands (yes, really!). They also dive into Apeel, the controversial produce coating that doesn’t wash off and isn’t labeled, leaving many consumers in the dark. Which grocery stores and companies are rejecting it? Which foods are most affected? Why is it such a problem? Mira, author of “The Pantry Principle: How to Read the Label and Understand What’s Really in Your Food”, shares insights on how to spot hidden MSG and other sneaky additives, while also giving tips on what to look for instead. It’s an essential listen for anyone who wants to shop smarter, eat cleaner, and take control of what’s on their plate. Don’t miss this must-hear conversation!
