RDs vs. BS

A diet where you can eat anything you want as long as the total calories and macronutrients (carbs, protein, and fat) fall within a certain range... could it be this is too good to be true, or is this the best way to approach weight loss and health? Today we discuss two versions of "IIFYM" - first, the general concept of tracking macronutrients, and second, the branded diet company that has formed from this concept.

GMOs, or Genetically Modified Organisms... sounds scary, right? Today we discuss what a GMO food is, why we use this technology in some produce, and why these "Franked-foods" aren't quite as scary as some people may make you think. BS PS is on the supplement product "Mix-Hers",  a supplement that claims to help with women's hormonal health and ease PMS symptoms. Sound too good to be true? You know what we say about that....

Have you ever wondered why there seems to be so much conflicting data on nutrition out in the world? How can one guy claim that red meat give you cancer, and another that all you need to eat to be your healthiest is red meat? Why do so many supplements claim to have so many benefits, but humans do not seem to be getting any healthier as a result of taking them? Today, we chat with Nick Milazzo, the Editor of Study Summaries and Examine.com. He disseminates nutrition research every day with a fine-tuned comb, and he's sharing his wisdom of why nutrition research is so hard to conduct, why findings are usually inconclusive, and how nutrition research can be used as a weapon to sell exaggerated claims when ill-intended snake oil salesmen get their hands on it.
