Welcome to the Realfoodology podcast with your host, me, Courtney Swan! I’m an Integrative Nutritionist living in LA on a mission to change the way we eat in America. Each week I’ll be talking to doctors, food experts and health professionals to bring you the best info so you can thrive. Somewhere along the way, we lost sight of how powerful our food choices are. But it’s never too late to start. You’d be so surprised how resilient our bodies are when we start taking care of them. Trust me, I know it’s overwhelming. That's why I’m here. I’m going to break it down with you, make it more digestible and easier to navigate. Let’s get back to real food!

196: The Corporations Corrupting our Health | Calley & Casey Means Pt. I
Today we have part one of an eye-opening two-part series as I sit down with Calley and Casey Means to talk about the dark underbelly of the healthcare industry and its devastating impact on our metabolic health. Calley, an industry insider with political experience, exposes the corruption within the food industry, while his sister Casey, a disillusioned doctor turned co-founder of Levels, reveals the systemic flaws driving her away from medicine. Together, they uncover how healthcare, the fastest-growing industry, paradoxically leaves Americans sicker than ever, with 9 out of 10 leading causes of death linked to food. From the manipulation of media and politics to the insidious influence of big food, they dissect the intricate web of interests perpetuating our nation's health crisis. Tune in for an insightful discussion on metabolic dysfunction, policy roadblocks, and the urgent need for change.
