174: Vivica Menegaz Ponders The Idea That No Food (Not Even Kale!) Is Healthy

Ketogenic nutritionist and blogger Vivica Menegaz joins our hosts Jimmy Moore and Jenna The Paleo PA today in Episode 174 of "Low-Carb Conversations With Jimmy Moore, Jenna The Paleo PA & Friends!"

 

The health headlines never seem to slow down as it seems now more than ever before people are taking a great interest in the food they eat and the lives they are living. With all of this interest comes a lot of confusion when it comes to figuring out how to decipher the good information from the bad. That's where we come in with brand new episodes on Fridays helping you become informed about the latest health news and what it all means for you and your family.

WHY DID THE USDA GET RID OF THEIR GRASS FED LABEL?

USDA Revokes Grass Fed Label Standard

In today's episode, our hosts Jimmy Moore and Jenna Lightfoot (aka Jenna The Paleo PA) are joined by ketogenic nutritionist and blogger Vivica Menegaz from "The Nourished Caveman." Listen in at the beginning as Jimmy and Jenna talk about telephone credit card marketers, Jimmy's January fasting experiment, and the absurd new "buttery burger" from Burger King.

WHY LABELING FOODS AS 'HEALTHY' IS MEANINGLESS

No food is healthy. Not even kale.

Listen in as Jimmy, Jenna, and Vivica talk about whether BPA-free plastics are any healthier for you, the USDA's decision to revoke the "grass fed" label standard, the meaningfulness of efforts by big food companies to cut sugar from their products, Dr. David Ludwig's fight against low-fat diets (listen to Jimmy's LLVLC Show podcast with him in Episode 1068 this week), why no food should be labeled as "healthy," what the decline in sales at Whole Foods Market means, new research indicating that plants can feel pain, and an Italian town that has shut down wifi in their local schools over health concerns. Plus, don't miss Vivica's Keto Macaroon Fat Bombs recipe at the end of the show. Now it's time to pull up a chair, grab a cup of coffee, and let's talk!
