On today's episode of Diet Starts Tomorrow, Emily and Lauren start things off with a Wellness Check.
Lauren gives us an update on her alcohol free journey and has an on-air epiphany about how much caffeine is actually in energy drinks. Then, they close on this week's Scoop Du Jour in which Halle Berry revealed that her doctor misdiagnosed her with "the worst case of herpes he's ever seen" when in fact, it was just perimenopause. This leads into a discussion about how there's not enough research in the medical field when it comes to women's bodies and women's needs.

What even is colostrum and do we *actually* need it? Are you more prone to lactose intolerance if you were raised in a dairy-free household? Is it okay to have soy milk in your coffee but cheese on your eggs?

Is Dairy Actually Inflammatory?

On today’s episode of Diet Starts Tomorrow, Emily and Lauren recap HBO Max’s “Brandy Hellville & The Cult Of Fast Fashion” This brand has been a hot topic of discussion on this very podcast in episodes past and now it’s a cultural conversation so of course we had to dive in. The two discuss how the documentary brilliantly utilizes the zeitgeist of Brandy Mellville to help educate viewers on the horrors of fast fashion. Beyond that, we learn about the racist, antisemitic, fatphobic and sexist business practices that the owner utilizes. The two point out the brand’s evil genius methods of how they were able to bottle and sell the specific feminine teenage desire of belonging. So now what do we do? Tune in!
