Episode Synopsis

In today’s episode of Nitty Gritty to Balance, we are finally back behind the mic after a little hiatus, and we're diving deep into one of our all-time favourite topics: Ingredients. This chat takes off from our previous episode on the basics of health, but today we’re zooming all the way in getting into the nitty gritty of what’s actually inside the foods we eat every day. From sugars and sodium to fats and food dyes, we’re peeling back the labels and encouraging you to become more informed, empowered shoppers. You might want to grab a can or box from your pantry and follow along this one is part conversation, part scavenger hunt.We unpack everything from how to decode a nutrition label, to understanding the difference between natural and added sugars, good fats vs bad fats, and why “natural flavours” may not be so natural after all. We also shine a light on those tricky marketing tactics what the front of the package wants you to believe versus what the ingredient list is actually telling you. And yes, we go there: artificial dyes, sneaky packaging, and even black mold in your citric acid. But as always, it’s not about fear it’s about awareness, balance, and giving you the tools to opt in or opt out with confidence.Thank you for being here.
