Technology has made many advancements forward, but why has the U.S. food system taken many steps back?

Brett Ender, Chief Beef Officer of Noble Origins & Co-Host of the Meat Mafia podcast, joins I'm Well Aware for an informational episode that explores the state of the food system and metabolic health in the U.S. Sabrina Schielein invites Brett to share science-backed research around flawed data, the optimal human diet, and the history of corrupt food corporations. He dives into the demonization of meat, the epidemic of processed foods, and sourcing foods at any level.

Brett emphasizes the value of starting simple by buying single-ingredient foods and gradually incorporating more local, regenerative, and grass-fed options. He shares resources for connecting with local ranchers and finding high-quality meat.

Sabrina and Brett highlight the power of personal motivation and self-advocacy in making positive changes and taking control of one's health. The two share their personal experiences with autoimmune diseases ulcerative colitis and eosinophilic esophagitis, and how they found healing through dietary changes over traditional medicine.
