    Ep. 6 The Truth About “Healthy” Food- Protein, Wellness & Organic Living in Colorado with Vibe Foods

    Shannon Weston didn't set out to build a wellness business, she set out to save her son. What started as a desperate search for answers to her child's mysterious health issues became a complete obsession with the power of food as medicine and eventually, Vibe Foods, one of Colorado's most trusted organic health food stores. In this episode of Sweat Community Podcast, Shannon gets refreshingly honest about the wellness industry, what's worth your money, what's complete health washing, and why that acai bowl you think is healthy might have more sugar than a hot fudge sundae. We also dig into clean protein sources, bone broth benefits, ingredient label red flags, and what it really takes to build a passion-driven business in today's economy. Later in the episode Shannon reveals her unexpected guilty pleasure, the supplement she swears by, and her honest take on wellness trends that need to go away. Plus, Shannon shares why fighting to protect the Lone Tree Bluffs is deeply personal to her and connected to everything she believes about health and community.
