I am honestly so glad that the school year has started already! It does bring some melancholy feelings such as this is maybe the last time I drop my youngest one off to school because next year she'll be driving.

I love these first day of school drop offs! I get to be ridiculous and embarrass her and bring a smile to her face. It is a really special time. 

Some of you may be experiencing an empty nest cycle or just the nostalgia of the school season starting, and you feel like something's missing. Well, I'm here for you and I have often said to a patient that, ‘Wow! Now you finally have the time to have that mental breakdown your body has been wanting to have for a decade!’

Back to school also brings with it the focus on the immune system because colds and flus often come with the beginning of a new school year so, keeping yourself as healthy as possible is important for you and your family. I am not a proponent of routine flu immunizations - I am a proponent of resetting your circadian rhythm, boosting your vitamin D naturally and/or supplement, and empower your immune system versus having it suppressed.

In this interview with Ali Miller, RD, LD, CDE, we talk about really strategic ways to optimize your health and that of your family for a better mind and body and experience.

Let me know any questions and please comment below.

"This is your body telling you that what you're doing currently isn't working. That might mean you switch the timing. That might mean you switch up the macros. That might mean you switch up the food selection or types. But there's definitely something that you have to shake up when your body is telling you that it's not working.” [00:33:14] – Ali Miller

Reading food labels is essential for maintaining a healthy lifestyle. In today's society, where there is an abundance of processed and packaged foods, it is crucial to be aware of what we are putting into our bodies. It can be easy to overlook the importance of reading food labels. Many of us are guilty of grabbing items off the grocery store shelves without giving much thought to it and what many individuals fail to realize is that even foods labeled as "healthy" can contain hidden ingredients that are detrimental to our health.

In this episode, we are joined by Nutrition Expert, Jen Smiley, Founder of "Wake Up and Read the Labels," a company dedicated to helping consumers understand what's actually inside of their food and

revolutionize their grocery shopping. Jen's personal experience with asthma, stubborn weight, and inflammation taught her the importance of reading the back of food products. Her journey began when she realized that the seemingly healthy food products she was consuming were actually filled with ingredients she couldn't even pronounce. This wake-up call led her on a mission to find foods with real, recognizable ingredients.

As Jen emphasizes, knowledge truly is power when it comes to making healthier choices. By educating ourselves about food labels and understanding the ingredients we're consuming, we can make more informed decisions. Over time, these choices become easier, and we can navigate the marketing tactics that often mislead us.

Sometimes, we find ourselves on this journey towards better health and wellness in isolation, without the support of our loved ones or community. However, by sharing our knowledge and encouraging others to listen to podcasts like ours, we can ignite support and change for our loved ones. Together, we can hold each other accountable and create a community that prioritizes health and wellness!

Key Takeaways:

[00:01:32] Toxic ingredients in salad dressing.

[00:06:47] Real food ingredients discovery.

[00:08:14] Gluten-free and dairy-free diets.

[00:12:26] Nut milk alternatives

[00:17:03] Clean coffee options.

[00:19:54] Ingredients to avoid.

[00:23:11] Controversial ingredients in food.

[00:28:30] Teflon and its health impacts.

[00:30:41] Cooking oils and inflammation.

[00:34:42] Diabetes and diet sodas.

[00:40:47] Overcoming the food industry.

"The fact that we're going to the grocery, and we are confused, and our health is declining is it correlates with the amount of choices in this consumer confusion that the food marketing is essentially created.” [00:14:49] – Jen Smiley

"The beautiful thing is that you can eat the foods you love, you have to be educated on which the labels are made with real ingredients and that is how you can enjoy these foods still not feel restricted, you're not on a diet, you're actually overcoming the food industry and that's when you start to see relief in your symptoms and how you feel."
