Is plant-based food dying—or detoxing? In this episode, Kerry Song, founder and CEO of Abbot's, returns to Eat For The Planet to unpack what she sees as the third wave of plant-based eating. We explore why consumers are walking away from ultra-processed mimicry, how trust is rebuilt through clean labels and transparency, and why the real opportunity lies in the space between imitation and compromise. Kerry shares what she's learned from building a wellness-driven brand in a hype-driven category—and why satisfaction, simplicity, and real food are the future.

Food addiction isn't about willpower.It's about biology.This week's guest, Dr. David A. Kessler, pulls back the curtain on GLP-1 drugs, the medications everyone's talking about but few truly understand. As a former FDA Commissioner, bestselling author of Diet, Drugs, and Dopamine, and someone who has personally used Ozempic, Dr. David reveals what pharmaceutical companies aren't telling you about how they actually work.David shares his own journey with GLP-1 medications, the science behind why they're so effective, and the critical conversations we're not having about safety, proper use, and what happens when you stop taking them.Through science, candor, and vulnerability, he explains:Why food addiction is real, and how it rewires the reward circuits of the brainHow GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic are changing the conversation about obesity and self-blameWhy “just eat less” doesn't work… and never didHow visceral fat creates an invisible storm of inflammation, starting in childhoodAnd what it means to actually change your relationship with food for goodDr Kessler doesn't offer a magic solution. He offers tools: from nutritional rewiring to behavioral insight, from emotional honesty to policy change.Ultimately, he reminds us that health isn't about being perfect. It's about understanding what drives us, learning how to interrupt the cycle, and reclaiming agency in a world designed to overwhelm it.Real healing isn't about restriction. It's about relief.It's not about weight. It's about freedom.Love,Sarah Ann

Are you a serial snacker? Is there ALWAYS room for dessert? Do you find yourself feeling hungry throughout the day, despite just eating? Or maybe you notice reaching for a bag of chips whenever you're feeling stressed? Did you know that there are actually different types of hunger that can shape our eating habits? Spoiler: You're NOT broken!Welcome to Salad with a Side of Fries, the podcast where we dig into the surprising truths about how we eat and why. Today, host and health coach Jenn Trepeck is tackling a topic that's far more complex than it seems: hunger. We're going to explore the fascinating world of hedonic hunger, the kind driven by pure pleasure, and how it can often override our natural homeostatic hunger, that biological signal that tells us we actually need fuel. We'll also explore how processed foods significantly impact our hunger signals and strategies for managing each type. Get ready to rethink everything you thought you knew about your cravings and your plate, because by the end of this episode, you'll have a whole new understanding of what it means to truly be hungry. The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, who discusses wellness and weight loss in real life, clearing up myths, misinformation, and bad science surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let's dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store.IN THIS EPISODE: (00:00) Hedonic hunger, driven by dopamine, can override the biological drive of homeostatic hunger(06:48) Hunger is not a moral failing, and how to identify homeostatic hunger(12:01) Cravings versus hunger, and studies show high nutrient density diets reduce hunger pains and cravings(16:58) Is it hunger, or is it restriction, and hedonic hunger involves eating for pleasure, triggered by ultra-processed foods or stress(22:47) Controlling hedonic hunger(27:35) Emotional hunger is eating to cope with emotions, and recognizing emotional eating is key to managing it(33:50) Conditioned hunger is defined as a learned response to stimuli or situations(37:55) Hidden hunger is defined as cellular micronutrient deficiency, often from processed foods(43:00) Toxic hunger is defined as discomfort from processed food toxins(47:34) Nutrient-dense, whole foods emphasized as key to balancing all hunger typesKEY TAKEAWAYS:Hunger is multifaceted and often extends beyond the need for energy. There are several types of hunger—hedonic, emotional, conditioned, hidden, and toxic—that are distinct from basic physiological (homeostatic) hunger. This indicates that a complex interplay of pleasure can drive eating, emotions, learned responses, and even cellular deficiencies or toxic exposures, rather than just an empty stomach.Understanding the various drivers of hunger is crucial for managing eating behaviors effectively. Recognizing whether hunger is due to a biological need, an emotional state, a learned trigger, or even a cellular deficiency allows individuals to address the root cause more effectively. For example, emotional eating requires different strategies than homeostatic hunger.Food quality has a significant impact on hunger and overall well-being. Eating Nutrient-dense foods can reduce true hunger pains and cravings, while processed foods contribute to "hidden" and "toxic" hunger due to nutrient deficiencies and the presence of toxins. This underscores the importance of whole, unprocessed foods not just for satiety, but also for preventing various forms of discomfort and health issues often mistaken for hunger.QUOTES: (07:13) "The body only has so many ways to communicate with us." - Jenn Trepeck(14:21) “Eating nutrient-dense foods minimizes hunger pains." - Jenn Trepeck(21:06) “Hedonic hunger is when people get into that shame and blame and beat themselves up.” - Jenn Trepeck(31:12) “One of the best questions my therapist ever asked me was, where am I not being fed?" - Jenn TrepeckRESOURCES:Become A Member of Salad with a Side of FriesJenn's Free Menu PlanA Salad With a Side of FriesA Salad With A Side Of Fries MerchA Salad With a Side of Fries InstagramNutrition Nugget: HungerThe Bulls-Eye of Change

In this conversation, David Jacobowitz, founder of Nebula Snacks, shares his journey from a childhood filled with sweets to creating a line of luxurious, sugar-free chocolate bites. He discusses the challenges of managing his health, the experimentation process behind developing his products, and the ways in which customer feedback helps shape his brand and product line. David emphasizes the importance of taste in healthy snacks and the benefits of using natural sweeteners that do not spike blood sugar, making his products suitable for those with dietary restrictions. He shares valuable lessons learned from his digital marketing background, emphasizes the significance of maintaining healthy profit margins while growing a CPG company, and the importance of maintaining personal involvement in all aspects of the business.  David wraps up by advocating for a positive relationship with food, because food is meant to be enjoyed, not feared.Takeaways:David's childhood nickname was 'the vacuum' due to his insatiable appetite.He faced obesity and potential diabetes at a young age, leading to a long phase of fad dieting.During COVID, he began experimenting with making his own sugar-free chocolate to get his sweet snacking under control.David aimed to create a product that didn't compromise on taste while being healthier.He used monk fruit and allulose as sweeteners to avoid the aftertaste common in other sugar-free products.The development of his chocolate took years of experimentation and customer feedback.He initially launched with full-size chocolate bars before transitioning to smaller filled cups.Mint chocolate became a top seller despite David's original dislike for that flavor.Customer feedback played a crucial role in flavor development and product offerings.David's products are designed to not spike blood sugar, making them suitable for most diabetics, though different individuals have unique blood sugar responses.Manufacturing challenges can be significant for startups.Protecting profit margins is essential to sustain a business.Pricing should be based on actual costs, not market feelings.Food should be enjoyed, not feared.Transparency in food ingredients is increasingly important.Sound Bites:“The doctor said I was obese, at 10 years old, and I was heading towards diabetes.""I own a Zero sugar chocolate company, but I do still have some sugar.”"You can have a better-for-you product, but if it doesn't taste good, you're solving nobody's issue. Taste matters"“I can't give a hundred percent guarantee that it won't spike your blood sugar because everybody's blood sugar is unique.”“At the end of the day you gotta listen to the customer. They're requesting flavors, they're requesting products, those are the ones I'm gonna be launching.”“Until you reach a certain point, do everything yourself. It's gonna suck, but you will become far more appreciative, learn the ins and outs a lot quicker, and be able to establish firm relationships with your customers."“Protect your margin because once you actually hit scale, particularly in retail, you're going to need it.""Don't price based on feeling and market comps alone. Know your numbers.”"Snacking is my superpower.""Food is meant to be enjoyed, not feared.""The consumer's wisening up, and that's what we're really all about.”Links:David Jacobowitz on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/davidjacobowitz/Nebula Snacks - https://nebulasnacks.com/Nebula Snacks on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/nebula-snacks/Nebula Snacks on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/nebulasnacksNebula Snacks on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/nebulasnacksNebula Snacks on X - https://x.com/nebulasnacksNebula Snacks on TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@nebulasnacks…Brands for a Better World Episode Archive - http://brandsforabetterworld.com/Brands for a Better World on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/brand-for-a-better-world/Modern Species - https://modernspecies.com/Modern Species on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/modern-species/Gage Mitchell on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/gagemitchell/…Print Magazine Design Podcasts - https://www.printmag.com/categories/printcast/…Heritage Radio Network - https://heritageradionetwork.org/Heritage Radio Network on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/heritage-radio-network/posts/Heritage Radio Network on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/HeritageRadioNetworkHeritage Radio Network on X - https://x.com/Heritage_RadioHeritage Radio Network on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/heritage_radio/Heritage Radio Network on Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/@heritage_radioChapters:03:00 - The Sweet Beginnings: David's Journey with Sweets05:39 - From Fad Diets to Sustainable Solutions07:59 - Crafting the Perfect Sugar-Free Chocolate12:00 - Experimentation and Flavor Development18:44 - Customer Feedback and Flavor Evolution24:23 - Understanding Blood Sugar and Health Benefits34:28 - Understanding Blood Sugar and Snacking35:41 - Customer-Centric Product Development37:12 - The Challenges of Manufacturing40:19 - Lessons from Digital Marketing Experience42:37 - Key Lessons from Three and a Half Years45:54 - Advice from CPG Leaders53:37 - Personal Snacking Preferences57:53 - A Better World Through Food01:03:37 - Closing Thoughts and Future Aspirations

In this teaching, Co-Pastor Ezekiel Perez emphasizes the critical role of discipline in Christian living, contrasting it with the allure of instant gratification and entertainment. He discusses the internal struggle between cravings and calling, highlighting the importance of making disciplined choices that align with spiritual growth. The lesson explores the challenges of maintaining discipline in various aspects of life, including relationships and personal faith, and underscores the necessity of perseverance in the face of life's difficulties.

In this episode, Co-Pastor discusses the critical role of parents in the spiritual development of their children, emphasizing that it is primarily the parents' responsibility to instill spiritual values and disciplines. He highlights the importance of consistency and accountability in spiritual life, arguing that true discipline shapes one's identity and confidence. The teaching also touches on the neglect of spiritual disciplines, the necessity of forgiveness, and the lessons learned through discipline.

This episode reveals groundbreaking research from the Journal of Cell Metabolism showing that when you eat matters as much as what you eat for hunger control and fasting success.

In this week's episode, Dr. Fiona Lovely is joined by Lisa Kilgour—Registered Holistic Nutritionist, TEDx speaker, and author of Undieting: Freedom from the Bewildering World of Fad Diets—for a compassionate and eye-opening conversation about the gut-brain connection and why most diets are set up to fail, especially for women in midlife. Lisa shares her personal health journey, from musician to holistic nutritionist, and unpacks the deep relationship between our gut, brain, and emotional well-being.

That one treatment changed everything.

Happy Satiated Saturday! Many of you may know that touch has been linked to the release of oxytocin. Oxytocin is a hormone related to reproduction, social bonding, stress regulation, and promotes feelings of love, trust, attachment, intimacy, and calm. Ya know what else stimulates the release of oxytocin? Eating. Research studies have found that an increase in oxytocin can decrease the urge to eat. So you can imagine that if you're lacking safe touch in your life and touch has felt invasive, where you stay away from touch, that your body needed to find another way to receive the oxytocin that it desires to feel calm and connected. It found a way to do that through food. This is another example of why food is not just about the food. We can continue to be curious about what food is doing for your body.In this week's episode, I chat with Dr. Njideka Olatunde, author, Master Reflexologist, Pain Relief Educator, and founder of Focus On Healing Wellness Institute about: The power of touch and re-defining what touch isUnderstanding the connection between stress and painRefloxologyDaily touch practicesThe importance of play and funI also sprinkle in the connection between touch and your food behaviorsYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/touch-for-healing-pain-and-decreasing-cravingsWith Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxKeep in touch with Dr. Olatunde here: Website: https://focusonhealing.com/LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/njidekanolatunde Instagram: www.instagram.com/evolving_butterfly YouTube: www.youtube.com/@changingliveswithtouchology Podcast: www.touchologywellnessexperience.comSupport the showKeep in touch with Stephanie Mara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafoxWebsite: https://www.stephaniemara.com/https://www.somaticeating.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafoxContact: support@stephaniemara.comSupport the show:Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/supportMy favorite water filter: https://www.pureeffectfilters.com/#a_aid=somaticeatingReceive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here: https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARAUse my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPl Special thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. ...

Happy Satiated Saturday! It can be confusing what path to choose for your food recovery when there are many different paths you can walk. When exploring all the various avenues, you can focus on your experience of choice. There is no "right" way to decrease your food coping mechanisms. It gets to be unique to you, your body, and what supports you in feeling the way you want to feel in your life. Your recovery resources are your choice (something that the experience of trauma can feel like it took away from you). When trying out any somatic, nervous system, trauma, parts practices, you can observe how you feel before, during, and after to discover which practices resonate with you. You will receive this bodily feedback by tracking your capacity to flow through dysregulation, big emotions and sensations, and what helps you to return to yourself again and again. In this week's episode, I chat with Caroline McNally, Hypnotherapist & Longevity Coach, about: Hypnotherapy resources you can use on yourself to navigate food urges and impulsesUtilizing visualization for navigating your relationship with foodThe importance of laughter on this healing journey Reminding yourself that you have a choiceYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode here: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/food-cravings-with-self-hypnosis-resources6 more days to sign up for the Somatic Eating® Program! In three months together, you will walk away with an abundance of various somatic practices to navigate your food cravings with connection, embodiment, and experience of choice.
