The Middle Ground

Are We Being Fed or Fooled? Marla Letizia on Food, Pharma, and the Fight for Our Health

Tom Letizia

In this powerful episode of Middle Ground Radio, host Tom Letizia sits down with Marla Letizia, founder of the Long-Life Era® Community, to explore the hidden forces shaping America's food and healthcare systems.

Marla, a passionate advocate for purposeful aging and conscious living, unpacks the alarming changes in our food supply—from the rise of ultra-processed, chemical-laden meals to the loss of real nutrition at our dinner tables. But the conversation doesn’t end with food.

Together, they take a hard look at the pharmaceutical industry, asking bold questions: Are we truly healing—or simply being managed? Are we medicating instead of nourishing ourselves? And what does that mean for our health, our communities, and our future?

This episode is a wake-up call—and a guide to reclaiming our wellness from the grip of convenience culture and corporate control.

Listen in if you’ve ever asked:

  • Why does food in America feel so different?
  • Why are chronic illnesses rising?
  • How can we age with power, creativity, and vitality?
