What’s really in your food? The science behind what you eat - Ep. 43 Health 360 with Dr. G

    • Health & Fitness

We’ve come a long way from the time when humans hunted and grew their own food. 
Today, most of our food is provided through complex food processing and distribution systems. This begs the question: What’s really in your food and how do we make food better?
Processed food has carbohydrates, fats, protein and vitamins we need — along with preservatives, flavor and color additives, and other things you may not realize. For instance, what keeps M&M’s from melting in your hands? Is there something in instant pudding that makes it thicken without any heat?
Listen in on the conversation in Episode 43 as Dr. G and his guest, Food Scientist David Allen, discuss the science behind what we eat.
