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!

I love all that you do and stand for. I have one question do you speed up the talking on the Podcasts? I have a really hard time with how fast everyone is talking. It’s not just your podcast. It does happen on quite a few ones, but I just can’t listen because of that. again thank you for the work you do.
