This episode is brought to you by Butcher Box and Rupa Health.
Ultra-processed food consumption has increased to a mindblowing 70% among children in the United States. With our fast-paced and stressful lifestyles, processed foods have become a more convenient option for parents and families. These foods often contain chemicals to give them additional flavor, create addiction, and hijack our taste buds. In order to create better health for our children, parents need some go-to tips and meal plan inspiration to bring real food back into their family's lives and reclaim health.
Today on The Dhru Purohit Podcast, Dhru sits down with Vani Hari, more commonly known as the Food Babe, to discuss her top strategies for creating better health for your family.
Vani Hari was named one of the “Most Influential People on the Internet” by Time Magazine. She is the revolutionary food activist behind foodbabe.com, co-founder of organic food brand Truvani, and New York Times best-selling author of The Food Babe Way and Feeding You Lies. Her new cookbook, Food Babe Family, will officially hit stores on October 17, 2023.
She has led campaigns against food giants like Kraft, Starbucks, Chick-fil-A, Subway, and General Mills that attracted more than 500,000 signatures and led to the removal of several controversial ingredients used by these companies. Her drive to change the food system inspired the creation of her new company, Truvani, where she produces real food without added chemicals, products without toxins, and labels without lies.
