We've got some good news for you coming up next Friday, February 28, 2014. Our host Jimmy Moore will come out of hibernation from writing his book Keto Clarity: Unleash The Health Benefits Of The Low-Carb, High-Fat Diet to be a part of the epic, CAN'T MISS Episode 100 we have planned for you. He and Dietitian Cassie have quite the entertaining and surprising show to share with you and you're just gonna have to tune in next week to find out what the fuss is all about. But we promise it will be totally worth your while with an all-star line-up of more than a dozen guest friends who will be here to help us celebrate this momentous occasion in "Low-Carb Conversations" history. Mark your calendar now so you don't miss this one. It's gonna be a podcast for the ages!

This week, Dietitian Cassie invited a nutritionist and dietitian-in-the-making named Christin Grettenberger from the "Detective Dietitian" blog to join her as guest co-host. They journey through the latest health headlines with two amazing guest friends, Mary Shenouda from "The Paleo Chef" blog and Megan Opel from the "Peaches & Cake" blog. And we bring back our special "Secret Headline" this week as the panel gives their spontaneous reaction to the headline "Kraft removes artificial preservatives in its most popular cheese slices". Listen in to hear these ladies discuss why nutrition can be confusing (and the argument that it really isn't), a stunning admission by the McDonald's CEO that their company is fighting to be "relevant" again, the real deal on the "Simply Orange" brand of juice from Coca-Cola, how a pregnant mom's decision to eat a high-fat diet will affect her baby's brain, and so much more. Plus, we'll have some yummy recipes like Megan's "Pistachio-Crusted Salmon" to share from our guest friends that will have you begging for more! Now it's time to pull up a chair, grab a cup of coffee and let's talk about it!
