Sometimes you’ll get a sleep expert teach you the exact steps on how to fall back asleep at 3am so you don’t feel like a zombie all day. Sometimes you’ll hear from someone who ran the marathon, kicked the addiction or manifested their dream threesome on the beach and you’ll think “If they can do it, so can I” And when you start thinking thoughts like that… you will be inspired to stop drifting and being a victim of your circumstances - and start actively creating the life you want. It takes Goals. It takes Grit. And it takes some Woo-Woo Sh*t."
Goals, Grit, and Some Woo Woo Sh*t
MAHA, Conspiracies and Seed Oils, Oh My! with Dr. Andrea Love
Dr. Andrea Love of Immunologic is back for Part 2. This week we’re talking politics.
The political spectrum isn’t as divided as it looks—turns out both sides can latch onto the same sketchy ideas, just for wildly different reasons. Dr. Love takes us back to the first anti-vax wave in the 1970s:
Liberals were all about “no toxins, no chemicals, keep it natural!"
Conservatives, on the other hand, didn’t trust the government and didn’t want to be told what to do.
Fast forward, and here we are with the booming (and unregulated) supplement industry—a 50+ year effort to make people doubt the government, science, and even basic safety standards.
You may also recognize another political mantra... MAHA, RFK Jr.’s “Make America Healthy Again” platform, exploiting the country’s health challenges to fuel outrage at Big Food, Big Pharma, and, honestly, probably Big Spoon at this point.
Lastly, you’ve got questions... We’ve got answers. Or maybe more questions? Dr. Love rapid-fire on today’s hottest topics:
- Probiotics? Mostly hype, barely proven for much.
- Food sensitivity tests? Food sensitivity is not a medical condition—case closed.
- Ultra-processed food? The term means nothing—processing isn’t inherently bad.
- Seed oils? They’re fine. Seriously. Good fats, even.
- Masks? Use them when it makes sense for you and your loved ones.
- Carnivore diets? Overhyped. For real health improvements, talk to a dietitian.
- Metabolic reset? No magic switch here—just consistent, unsexy healthy habits.
Family gatherings, social media, and uncomfy conversations—how do we fight misinformation? Stop resharing garbage—screenshot it if you need receipts. Share credible sources, and speak up when you see harmful nonsense (safely, of course).
We’ve all got a part to play. Follow along with Dr. Love and the other science resources she recommends in today’s episode.
What’s Inside:
- Let’s get political, political (does either side get it right?)
- MAHA—does one of those A’s stand for angry? Because it should.
- Rapid fire hot button topics…what’s the truth?
- Compatting misinformation online and in person.
Dr. Angela Love is impressive, dude!! And I really wanted to leave this conversation feeling confident in who I trust and where to seek information. Turns out it is a hell of a lot more nuanced than that. What surprised you the most to find out when it came to these hot button health issues? Let me know on Insta!
