The Happy Eating Podcast

Carolyn Williams PhD, RD & Brierley Horton, MS, RD

Is it possible to eat your way to a better mood? Can foods really impact how the brain makes you think and feel? The “Happy Eating Podcast” was created after we couldn’t find the information that we needed for ourselves and our families. Join us as we break down the connection between food and mental wellness as we explore how food, diet, supplements, and daily habits can make for truly Happy Eating.

    Alkaline Water: Waste of Money or Worth It?

    Alkaline water’s popularity just won’t quit. Sales have grown every year since 2013. But do great sales mean that it’s worth drinking—and are the so-called benefits of alkaline water like preventing cancer, promoting weight loss or improving bone density legit? That’s what we break down in this very first episode of “waste of money or worth it”?   Sources for this episode include: Effect of Alkaline Drinking Water on Bone Density of Postmenopausal Women with Osteoporosis Associations of alkaline water with metabolic risks, sleep quality, muscle strength: A cross-sectional study among postmenopausal women Systematic review of the association between dietary acid load, alkaline water and cancer The effects of ingestion of hydrogen-dissolved alkaline electrolyzed water on stool consistency and gut microbiota: a double-blind randomized trial   Thank you for listening to The Happy Eating Podcast.
