Kennedy Jr. during his senate confirmation hearings for Secretary of Health, and discusses the urgent need for reform in America's nutrition policy and the lack of meaningful solutions to combat the chronic disease epidemic driven by U.S. food and healthcare systems. She highlights the missed opportunities exposed during RFK Jr.'s  hearings on Capitol Hill, and why sweeping federal regulations and RFK Jr.'s proposed strategies for improving American health ultimately miss the mark. Then, Jaclyn outlines five actionable policies to improve public health, including integrating cooking education in schools, reforming the Farm Bill to increase access to fresh veggies and fruit, incentivizing food service and restaurants to reduce added sugar, saturated fat and sodium in their menu offerings, tightening marketing regulations for products targeting kids & parents, and the most meaningful step in Making America Healthy Again and reversing the chronic disease epidemic : Getting nutrition counseling by a Registered Dietitian covered by insurance. Jaclyn also discusses the importance of transparency in the food industsry, how and why she believes that free market strategies and deregulatory policies can work by shifting incentive structures and focusing on strategic inititaives. She breaks down why bipartisan support is possible, and why these changes are essential for making healthier eating habits accessible to all Americans.

Welcome back to The Business of Wellness! This week, host Jaclyn London, RD, sits down with renowned New York City-based cardiologist, internal medicine and concierge medicine physician,  Dr. Erica Jones, MD, for an in-depth, behind-the-scenes, honest conversation about obesity medications and the alarming rise in the rate of cancer diagnoses among young adults. Why GLP-1's, why now? Dr. Jones explains the cardiovascular benefits that make GLP-1 medications a desirable tool in modern medical practic; the benefits vs. risks of taking these medications for weight-loss and management; the ideal population who will benefit from taking GLP-1's; how these medications are altering patients' food tastes and eating patterns, and how permanent they are; the most common (and uncommon) side effects of GLP-1 medications, their severity, and Dr. Jones' tips for predicting & understanding patient tolerance. Then, we get into the long-term considerations for use of GLP-1's, including a critical discussion on the rapid & widespread adoption of GLP-1's, long-term risks of using these medications (what we know and what we don't know yet…), and the need for comprehensive evaluation and medical nutrition therapy. We also dive into the media coverage about obesity medications: How is the celebrity endorsement of GLP-1's impacting everyday patients? Dr. Jones shares her perspective on that, and in what ways the media portrayal of GLP-1's has influenced interest and/or the cultural discourse about weight-loss. Jaclyn shares her perspective on the efficacy of Medical Nutrition therapy as a part of the clinical picture for patients adopting GLP-1's as an intervention for obesity, and they conclude on this topic by sharing considerations for long-term use– including what the packaging insert says vs. what's happening in real life physicians' offices. Next, Jaclyn & Dr. Jones dive into the concerning data from the American Cancer Society about the rising rates of cancer diagnosis in young people; Princess Catherine of Wales' cancer diagnosis at the age of 42; the contributing factors that may be playing a role in this concerning statistic; new modalities for screening; lifestyle related risk factors for specific types of cancers; new & emerging technologies for cancer treatment; balancing what's new and available to us as screening tools with creating & cultivating feelings overwhelm, anxiety & fear; the pros and cons of full-body MRI screenings, and Dr. Jones' most effective strategies for determining what interventions are right for most.

Co-Host Jaclyn London (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/london) My guest, Jaclyn London is a registered dietician and a bestselling author on the subject of separating dietary science from scams. As you'll soon find out, she has some surprising--if not downright unorthodox--thoughts on how we as men eat (and drink) horribly, and how improving that situation can make us more visually and socially attractive to women in record time. What is the difference between a fad diet food vs. stuff that genuinely doesn't work? How much of your tendency to gain weight or stay slim depends on who you are and your specific body chemistry? Are there certain men who can get away with being heftier and still be super attractive to women, even as other guys are deemed 'too skinny' by women? But meanwhile, according to Jaclyn there are indeed some key strategies every man can benefit from...even if we've 'tried everything and nothing worked'. Does intermittent fasting work? What works better? Next comes a huge takeaway--the difference between being 'full' and being 'satisfied' after eating. Is that why you're always hungry again an hour after eating at a Chinese Restaurant? Who are these people who eat 'six small meals a day'...and what counts as a 'small meal'? Next, I share the two golden nuggets I got from a guy who lost a ton of weight on how he did it. And how significant is hydration...and then 'returning the rental' later? We as men tend to be terrible about both. So then, what are the quick and effective ways we as men can be more attractive to women fast...all by changing our dietary habits? Jaclyn over-delivers in a big (and again, surprising) way...going so far to give us 'date day' strategies.

Specifically, I discuss:  How GLP-1's change individuals' food preferences, overall intake, and alter taste perception  How the rise of GLP-1's as the pharmaceutical industry's “blockbuster” might affect the food industry in the short and long-term, and how food companies could start to approach this topic as they prepare their product roadmaps for the future What are some specific concerns among individuals taking GLP-1's as it relates to food and beverage products, and their own personal tolerance to specific foods in light of medication side effects? GLP-1's and early satiety: We discuss how the medications create feelings of early satiety– what this means for practitioners, how this affects individual patients, and how the MNT for GERD and early satiety may be beneficial when considering / seeking to understand this patient population more effectively Alcohol, coffee, single-serve convenience foods, sugar-sweetened beverages, tomato-based products, eggs, veggies and fruit, and high saturated fat, high refined carb food products– what do all of these products have in common, and which ones of these will be better tolerated by individuals taking GLP-1's vs. not Side effects of GLP-1's that affect diet and lifestyle, and how these translate to CPG foo and beverage industries and product roadmaps/financial forecasting  My most fascinating finding of all: How tolerance to GLP-1 medications may be promoted through nutrition education & adopting diet & lifestyle shifts BEFORE STARTING the medication vs. referring to a dietitian/receiving nutrition education AFTER starting a GLP-1. I talk about why the lack of nutrition education & counseling may be affecting medication tolerance and ultimately, affecting a patient's ability to adhere to the medication long-term due to diet-related side effects.

Decoding the World Health Organization's Statement on Aspartame: Is It Safe to Drink Diet Coke?

In this solo episode, Jaclyn London, MS, RD, will dive deep into the WHO's classification of aspartame as a group 2b carcinogen, analyze the statement as a Registered Dietitian, evaluate the media coverage surrounding this topic, explore the wording of the statement, and ultimately answer the pressing question: Is it safe to drink Diet Coke? Welcome back to The Business of Wellness! Today, I start the episode by looking at the World Health Organization's classification of aspartame as a group 2b carcinogen. This classification means that aspartame has the potential to cause cancer in humans. However, it's crucial to understand the nuances and limitations of this classification. As a Registered Dietitian, it's my job to translate scientific information into practical advice. When it comes to the WHO's statement, it's essential to consider the dosage and exposure levels at which aspartame may pose a risk. Studies that have raised concerns about aspartame's safety often use extremely high doses that far exceed typical human consumption. We go through the statement step by step, with analysis and potential for application mixed in.  Remember: Numerous reputable organizations, such as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), and the American Cancer Society, have conducted extensive reviews and concluded that aspartame is safe for consumption within the recommended daily limits. It's also undergone rigorous testing and extensive studies for several decades. The weight of scientific evidence supports its safety when consumed in moderation, even for individuals who may have certain health conditions, such as diabetes or obesity. Next, I examine the wording of the World Health Organization's statement. The use of terms like "carcinogen" can be misleading without proper context: The Group 2b classification does not mean that aspartame is as hazardous as substances like tobacco or asbestos. Rather, it signifies that there is limited evidence and further research is needed to draw definitive conclusions. Plus, WHO's classification system places aspartame in the same category as coffee, pickled vegetables, and talcum powder, which may create unnecessary alarm. It's important to recognize that these substances are not considered equally risky, and the WHO's classification system is primarily intended as a tool for prioritizing further research. Last, I'll wrap up this episode by saying  confidently that it is safe to consume Diet Coke, or any beverage containing aspartame, within the recommended limits. Moderation is key when it comes to any food or drink, including those containing artificial sweeteners. Aspartame has undergone thorough testing and regulatory scrutiny, and it is considered safe by numerous regulatory bodies around the world. It's important to remember that individual sensitivities or allergies may vary, and if you have concerns or specific health conditions, it's always wise to consult with a healthcare professional. ___ This episode of The Business of Wellness is one of my favorites, but I'd love to hear what you think.

3 Lessons Better-For-You Food & Beverage Brands Should Learn from Bud Light

Welcome back to the Business of Wellness! Today's solo episode is a deep-dive on the Bud Light controversy from a food & beverage marketing standpoint. We take a hard look at what better-for-you brands can and should learn from Bud Light's many missteps throughout the handling of this controversy and discuss: Why defining & staying true to your unique value proposition as a food & bev brand is integral to driving key marketing & brand strategy decisions; why taste is ultimately the key driver of customer retention throughout a product & brand's lifecycle, and why having clear values and a strategy in place that reflects those values  creates unshakeable brand loyalty among customers. I also share what I've learned about influencer marketing strategies from working with big brands and working for them; some background on Bud Light's VP of Marketing; why Bud Light's non-apology and lack of accountability got them into hot water, and why choosing NOT to stand behind their top talent will be one of their greatest hurdles to overcome. We also get into the ins and outs of beer distributors, why these relationships matter, and what it says to customers that Bud Light is giving cases of beer away for free to these key customer touch-points.  Plus, we go behind the scenes on  product development and R&D for food & beverage brands, the latest Anheuser Busch InBev earnings call highlights,  and how so much of where this all began with Bud Light is rooted in diet culture (yes, you read that correctly).

Jackie and I met in grad school at NYU; she’s a Registered Dietitian and New York State Certified Dietitian-Nutritionist, Good Housekeeping’s nutrition director, and the author of Dressing on the Side (and Other Diet Myths Debunked): 11 Science-Based Ways to Eat More, Stress Less, and Feel Great About Your Body,” (Grand Central Publishing) In this week’s segment we talk about:    The concept of "wellness” and how the social media heavy world propagates the idea that you have to be someone you’re not in order to be truly living a life of “wellness.”    Wellness and self-care should revolve around things which make you feel rejuvenated    The importance of sustainability in all aspects of wellness; if you can’t do it for life, it may not be for you.    The importance of focusing on our experiences with food rather than on what we should be eating in order to comply with a particular diet.    Healthy living is about focusing on priorities, knowing full well that they can change because like us, they are not stagnant. There’s so much to unpack from my conversation with Jackie and I hope you enjoy listening to her extensive insight. You can connect with her via her book’s website, Instagram and Twitter.     Bio:Jackie London is a Registered Dietitian (RD) and New York State Certified Dietitian-Nutritionist (CDN).
