About this episode
Have you ever wondered whether you should be eating plants or not? Perhaps you’ve heard someone say you should stop eating spinach, kale, or tomatoes because of anti-nutrients. Maybe you’ve found yourself wondering, “Is the plant paradox real? Should I switch to the carnivore diet?” If so, this is the podcast for you. Today, I’m having an enlightening conversation with a leading expert in anti-nutrients, Dr. Deanna Minich. With decades of experience in academia and the food and dietary supplement industries, she’s tapping into her knowledge to help you sort through the noise about nutrition. Not only will she shed light on anti-nutrients, we’ll unpack the confusion about plants and what you should actually be eating. Plus, Dr. Minich will tell us the one thing you can do to contribute to a balanced gut microbiome, strong immune system, and healthy inflammatory response. At the end of this episode, you are going to feel beyond empowered to eat for your health.
