Episode 3525:

Danielle Omar unpacks three of the most common marketing claims on food labels: gluten-free, natural, and grass-fed. She explains what each one is actually regulated to mean, why none of them is a reliable shortcut to nutrition quality, and where the higher price may or may not be buying you something real. The takeaway is a more discerning trip through the grocery store and healthier eating habits built on what the label really says.

Quotes to ponder:

"some of the most nutritious foods available (think fresh produce, leafy greens, herbs, seafood) often have no labels!"

"All wheat foods contain gluten, but not all gluten-containing foods contain wheat."

"Purchasing food that's aligned with your values is how you develop true food confidence."
