Real Health Conversations
Real Health Conversations (Formerly Low-Carb Conversations) is hosted by Holly Jean Mullen, FNTP and features a variety of voices in the world of modern nutrition and health science, expressing many different points of view.

Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, blogger, and podcaster Caroline Potter and Certified Nutrition Consultant, blogger, and podcaster Holly Marshall join our hosts Jimmy Moore and Dietitian Cassie today in Episode 162 of "Low-Carb Conversations With Jimmy Moore, Dietitian Cassie & Friends!"

 

NOTE: We apologize for the audio quality of this episode. There was a technical glitch on the recording causing an echo effect. We've cleaned it up as well as we can and will strive to make sure this doesn't happen again. THANKS!

Putting the focus back on what the health headlines are REALLY saying is what we are all about here on this weekly podcast. Far too many people lazily read a headline and make that a part of what they believe to be true. But regular listeners of this show know that the headline doesn't always tell the whole story.

Headlines, headlines, headlines. They are seemingly endless in the world of health pumping out information to the masses who generally buy them at face value without digging deeper into what the real story is all about. The media is quite savvy in their ability to craft a compelling headline to capture eyeballs, but they don't always represent the real deal when it comes to the overall message being conveyed. That's why we're here to provide you with educated news and views to know how to respond to the headlines people are talking about.
