In this episode of the Wellness Diaries podcast, I chat with food scientist Livi Ron, who has a decade of experience. We go into the science behind food, particularly meat and dairy products, aiming to dispel common myths.

Livi explains food safety practices, such as cooking deli meats to prevent listeria, and clarifies misconceptions about nitrates in processed meats. We discuss the marketing tactics that mislead consumers and the differences between grass-fed and grain-fed beef. The episode underscores the importance of scientific literacy in understanding food production and encourages listeners to seek information from qualified professionals.
