  • The Zodiac Diet(s), and Four General Healthy Eating Tips from Emily and Marie

    Jokingly a few weeks ago, we said "next thing you know, there will be a diet based on your zodiac sign". Lo and behold, not only is there one zodiac diet, there are MANY zodiac diets... and they all contradict each other. Our BS PS is a Patreon preview, where we each give 2 pieces of advice that have worked for us to make healthy eating easier.

  • Dr Gundry

    Another day, another episode on Dr. Gundry. Are grapes the same "toxic" food as a Hershey's candy bar (hey, he said it, not us, we're not calling Hershey's toxic). Should all lectin containing foods (aka most plant food) be avoided? Can his diet keep you from ever needing another surgery? Get ready for another heavily eye-roll inducing episode.

  • Vitamin D

    Today we discuss all things Vitamin D: what we need it for, how we get it, and what to do if you think you are deficient. We also delve into some of the claims around Vitamin D supplements.

  • Yuka, European Nutriscore, and Thrive

    In another two-parter episode, we first discuss the French based app Yuka, which determines whether a food is "excellent", "good", "poor" or "bad". These classifications are based on the same criteria as the European Nutriscore classification system. We discuss what we think of this government backed program, and whether we recommend this classification app. Second, we discuss the MLM Thrive by Le-vel, which sells (this isn't a joke) health stickers. Take a listen to what we have to think about the product line of this company.

  • The Special K and South Beach Diets

    In this two-fer episode, we turn the clock back to the mid 2000's when diets like "eat cereal all day" was somehow just completely accepted. The 2000's saw some pretty wild diet trends, and we enjoyed taking a look at these two programs.
