Misinformation such as the “Dirty Dozen” list scares people away from buying produce. Produce is nutrient rich and essential. Food security is national security in and human security. We need to focus on nutrition not just calories. The nutrition panel for produce is the same regardless of how it is grown. It is all healthy.
Ever wonder if that tasty sound bite on the news about what you eat is true? Our guest, Emmy award winning journalist Kate Delaney, shares how to vet what you hear and why a sensational headline is more likely to get media attention.
58 episodes have flown by and here we are, a year into the Food Bullying Podcast! Michele and Eliz reflect on the first anniversary of the podcast with a look at some of their favorite episodes. Listen for more information on nutrition, neuroscience, farming, exercise, GMOs, healthy eating, hormones, science, and wellness.
Social media memes and marketing messages often ring nostalgic for how things used to be on the farm. But were the “good old days” really better? In this episode we chat with fruit and vegetable expert Gene McAvoy about how farming used to work (and how it still works in some parts of the world) and how research has made farming better. He also explains how Florida agriculture lost half a billion dollars over six weeks due to the pandemic in spring 2020.
