In this episode of The Art of Being Well, Dr. Will Cole sits down with Jeff Mroz, former NFL player and founder of Pioneer Pastures, to unpack one of the most misunderstood foods in modern nutrition - milk. Jeff shares how his experience as a professional athlete led him to discover the truth about dairy, gut health, and why so many people who think they're “lactose intolerant” actually aren't. Together, they explore the science behind A2 protein, how industrial farming changed the structure of milk, and why returning to ancestral dairy may be one of the most powerful steps for healing. They also dive into the war on saturated fat, the myths around plant milks, and how regenerative farming can support both human and planetary health.

For Episode #188 of the PricePlow Podcast, we welcome Edwin Gonzalez, Functional Health Sales Manager at Health Tech Bio Actives (HTBA), alongside Michael Alfaro from Master Foods Lab. This episode marks a milestone collaboration: putting cutting-edge vitamin B12 science into functional foods that consumers can actually feel working. Edwin introduces MecobalActive, HTBA's ultra-pure, optimized methylcobalamin ingredient that's redefining what B12 supplementation can do. Traditionally, the industry positioned B12 as a deficiency vitamin for tired, anemic, or sluggish individuals. HTBA is changing that narrative completely. New clinical research demonstrates that just three days of MecobalActive supplementation significantly improved both physical power output and cognitive reaction time in healthy, well-trained athletes without B12 deficiency. This isn't about correcting what's broken, it's about optimizing what already works. The conversation explores HTBA's nearly 50-year European heritage, their unique position as the only EU manufacturer of all active B12 forms, and the proprietary green chemistry process that yields MecobalActive's exceptional purity and stability. Michael walks through the technical challenges of incorporating functional ingredients into Skinny Bite cakes (showcased at SupplySide Global 2025), revealing the complex interplay between formulation science, manufacturing constraints, and innovative problem-solving. From raspberry-colored B12 filling to protected cake layers to the partnership model driving functional food innovation, this episode delivers both scientific depth and practical application insights. https://blog.priceplow.com/podcast/vitamin-b12-htba-mecobalactive-188 Video: Redefining B12 with HTBA's Edwin Gonzalez and Master Foods Lab's Michael Alfaro https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KGqZm9Q5bkw Detailed Show Notes: MecobalActive B12 Takeover (0:00) – Welcome Back: A Dive Into Functional Foods (2:00) – Redefining B12: From Deficiency to Performance Enhancement (4:45) – Creating Functional Foods: The Clear Can Problem (7:15) – The Formulation Challenge: Making Actives Work in Real Food (11:00) – HTBA's European Heritage and Manufacturing Excellence (14:30) – Green Chemistry: Manufacturing B12 Without Toxic Reagents (16:45) – Light Sensitivity and Creative Product Applications (19:00) – Redefining B12 Like Creatine Was Redefined (22:00) – The Clinical Study: Triple-Blind Crossover in Healthy Athletes (26:45) – The Results: 4% Power, 6% Fatigue Resistance, 5% Cognition (31:00) – Structure/Function Claims and Market Applications (35:45) – Color-Driven Innovation and Future Applications (37:00) – The Chocolate Coating: Formulation Within Constraints (39:00) – Manufacturing Mastery: Solving the Protein Cake Challenge (41:00) – The Partnership Model: When Ingredient Suppliers Become Collaborators (42:00) – The Pressure Cooker: Building Brands in Real Time (44:00) – Closing and Where to Find Edwin, HTBA, and Michael Where to Find HTBA, MecobalActive, and Master Foods Lab HTBA and MecobalActive: MecobalActive: Healt...

Author Bio: I cooked my way to better health, and you can too.Hi, I'm Emily Maxson, a trained chef and food lover. In my late 20s, I received a life-changing diagnosis of a digestive disease after severe symptoms and emergency surgery. I spent 18 months following a strict diet plan, eliminating grains, gluten, lactose, refined sugars and processed foods, forcing me to rethink how I cooked. I got back into the kitchen using ingredients I had never worked with before to find new ways to make favorite recipes. This change in eating allowed my gut to heal and my body to thrive. I learned firsthand the transformative power of food used as medicine.For over a decade, I have been developing simple nutrient-rich recipes to share with anyone who is looking to improve their health through food. You don't have to struggle with a digestive disease to experience the benefits. While most of my recipes are designed to focus on gut health, they were created for anyone who wants to eat simple, delicious food and feel great.Food is my passion. I am inspired by both the art and the science of the culinary world. I enjoy being in my kitchen creating, testing and writing recipes to share with you. I believe that cooking food at home is one of the best things you can do for your health, and it doesn't have to be complicated.Thank you for stopping by. I hope you enjoy your time here.

What if our obsession with “complete and balanced” feeding isn't really about our dogs at all… but about our fear of losing them?In this rich, honest conversation with Georgina of Georgina's Kitchen, we unpack the deeper story beneath the formulas - the way fear, control, and love can all blur together when we just want to do right by our dogs.Georgina shares how her own journey began when her dog started having seizures at just three years old - a moment that led her to question everything she'd been told about nutrition. Her curiosity opened a door to independent research, including a small but eye-opening study testing zinc levels in local beef liver samples that completely changed her understanding of “balance.”Together, we explore what it really means for a dog to thrive - not through micromanaging numbers, but through trust, intuition, and food as a living, intelligent force.We talk about:Why “complete and balanced” guidelines were never meant to define thriving — and how they became a tool of fear-based marketing.What Georgina's zinc testing revealed about the wild variation in natural foods, and why that's not a flaw but a sign of life.The quiet freedom that comes when we loosen our grip on control and let nature take the lead.What street dogs in India can teach us about adaptability, intuition, and the power of relationship with place.The growing push toward vegan diets for dogs, and why honouring individuality matters more than ideology.How we can support balance across seasons, climates, and energies - without falling into “just in case” or “more is better.”The difference between food-based and nutrient-based thinking, and why one nourishes the whole being while the other fragments it.This is a conversation for anyone who's ever felt overwhelmed by information, scared of getting it wrong, or tangled in the pressure to be the “perfect” dog guardian. It's a reminder that the goal isn't control - it's connection.When we feed from trust instead of fear, food relationship, and magic.Connect with Georgina:https://georginaskitchen.comInstagram: https://instagram.com/georginaskitchen.blrJoin our free F.E.T.C.H.

On today's episode of The Ultimate Assist, John Stockton and Ken Ruettgers welcome Sally Fallon Morell, author of Nourishing Traditions and president of the Weston A. Price Foundation — a woman who's been challenging mainstream nutrition dogma for over two decades.From defending raw milk and butter to exposing the dangers of industrial seed oils, glyphosate, soy, and processed foods, Sally calls out the powerful food and pharmaceutical interests that have shaped what she calls a “profitable but poisonous” diet. She argues that modern nutrition has been hijacked by money, convenience, and ideology — leaving generations sicker, weaker, and less fertile.In this provocative conversation, Sally dismantles the myths behind “healthy oils,” the food pyramid, and pasteurization, and explains why whole animal fats, cod liver oil, and traditional diets hold the key to reversing modern disease. She even connects food choices to rising infertility, behavioral changes, and chronic illness — warning that the survival of future generations depends on rediscovering what our ancestors knew all along.

We're in the middle of a fertility crisis — and much of it traces back to the food we eat, the toxins we're exposed to, and the outdated prenatal nutrition advice women are still being given. In this powerful conversation, I sit down with Lily Nichols, RDN, CDE — bestselling author of Real Food for Pregnancy, Real Food for Gestational Diabetes, and Real Food for Fertility — to talk about what women really need before, during, and after pregnancy. We cover: Why preconception nutrition matters long before you try to conceive The nutrients that actually move the needle for fertility and pregnancy outcomes How to support detox pathways safely (even during pregnancy) The truth about gestational diabetes and the flawed glucose test Why postpartum depletion is so common — and how to rebuild your nutrient stores The emotional side of nourishment: guilt, cravings, perfectionism, and self-trust How traditional cultures cared for new mothers — and what we can learn from them Why our fertility crisis is a reflection of deeper environmental and societal breakdowns This episode isn't just for pregnant women — it's for anyone who wants to understand how we've drifted so far from real nourishment and what it looks like to return to it.

"We always say our mac and cheese is like a break from the chaos. When things are crazy in your life, you just need a break. You don't have to go off the deep end and eat a bowl of some boxed XYZ... I want to eliminate that ‘Oh my God, what have I done?' part after you eat." —Myles Powell   Comfort food isn't just about taste—it's about trust, memories, and feeling good from the inside out. Too often, the foods we love come with a side of guilt or mystery ingredients, but there's a better way to enjoy the classics without compromise. Myles Powell grew up cherishing family meals, only to find that most store-bought comfort foods fell short of those memories. Driven by a passion for real ingredients and honest business, he set out to reinvent mac and cheese and more, building a brand that puts people and purpose first. Listen in for a no-nonsense look at building a clean-label food business, the real hurdles of funding and scaling, and how comfort food can be both nostalgic and nourishing. You'll walk away with practical insights, inspiration, and a fresh perspective on what's possible in your kitchen and beyond.   Meet Myles: Myles Powell is the founder of Myles Comfort Foods, a purpose-driven comfort food brand dedicated to clean-label, better-for-you classics.
