RDs vs. BS

Another day, another doctor spewing polarizing nutrition information that is only loosely based on research. Today we discussed "Grain Brain", a book about how gluten, grain, and sugar is the reason for all human chronic illness. Emily takes up through this eye-roll inducing book, and Marie discovers mid-episode that this author seems to have completely conflicting nutrition ideologies based on what book of his he is  currently promoting.

Today we discuss what might be our most outrageous diet ideology yet: self-proclaimed "Medical Medium" Anthony William claims that he talks to a "spirit" that gives him medical diagnosis for clients. He then usually proceeds to prescribe a celery juice cure (because of the "undiscovered special salt clusters in celery that "spirit" has told him and only him about) to heal most ailments. Unfortunately, he is "practicing" his "spirituality" in a way that is AWFULY close to a medical practice, and we have a lot of words about his nutrition claims.

Omega-3 fatty acids are found in the highest concentration in fatty fish and fish oils. These essential nutrient have to be consumed in the diet. The more fish oils are studied, the more research shows they may be linked to heart health, brain health, inflammation, and more. However, have the claims for these cure-all pills gotten out of control, or can one fish oil a day keep the doctor away?

Today's BS PS looks at the supplement Quinton. This supplement, which is based off of filtered sea water, claims to be a better mineral source than other electrolyte sources.

Can optimizing your health be as simple as filling out a survey and having individualized vitamin packs, sometimes with your name on the pack, sent to you FOR just you? In this episode, we discuss companies that claim they have the secret to figuring out exactly what vitamins and other supplements you need, and that these missing nutrients are causing all your health woes. Is health really just an individualized vitamin company survey away? To guide our discussion, Emily takes a deep dive into one of these companies called Rootine.
