Nutrition #32

Welcome to the Realfoodology podcast with your host, me, Courtney Swan! I’m an Integrative Nutritionist living in Denver on a mission to change the way we eat in America. Each week I’ll be talking to doctors, food experts and health professionals to bring you the best info so you can thrive. Somewhere along the way, we lost sight of how powerful our food choices are. But it’s never too late to start. You’d be so surprised how resilient our bodies are when we start taking care of them. Trust me, I know it’s overwhelming. That's why I’m here. I’m going to break it down with you, make it more digestible and easier to navigate. Let’s get back to real food! For more info, visit www.realfoodology.com (http://www.realfoodology.com/) and follow me on ig @realfoodology

    Misinformation
    She exaggerates and spreads misinformation to prove her point, way too many ads, some products she promotes has natural flavors
  • Jambi46nn2
    Great show wayyyyy to many ads
    I love the show but the amount of ads is a little ridiculous, the first 15 minutes were just ads and then theres ads all throughout the show. Great show but please no body wants to listen to 15+ minutes of ads.

    The best general health pod
    I’ve been following Courtney’s health blog and podcast for years. She is THE BEST. So accessible & articulate & honest. She has changed her tune on a few things over the years as she gathers her own knowledge, which requires courage. Every time I listen to her pod, I learn something new. I feel like we’re buds. I’ll be a lifelong listener.

    Love this podcast
    I found this show while searching food babe interviews. That was such a good show and now I listen to this podcast.

    Informative & Honest
    Courtney is so insightful. She has a wealth of knowledge and does her part by sharing it with the rest of us. I appreciate her fight to get us healthy. This podcast means so much to me. Honestly, I have learned so much!
  • PoppyPodcastListener
    Listen, but follow with a grain of salt
    Stumbled upon this podcast and Courtney some months back. I generally find her interviews interesting and informative, and I’m very in favor of a healthier food system. However, I agree with the reviewer who noticed her becoming reactionary and sharing information that doesn’t feel fact checked, and even sensationalized. This particularly is the case on her instagram. I recall an incident with calling out a salt brand some weeks ago. So, I would not take everything she shares at face value. But I’ll still keep listening for now in hopes that her podcast remains steady.

    Best podcast!
    There’s a few podcasts I will not miss and Realfoodology is one of them. Courtney is so smart, interesting, fun, relatable and cool! She has great guests and the flow is just great. Having fun and getting informed at the same time. Great vibes!
  • Momto2Eagles
    Appreciate the education in layman’s words
    I just want take a moment to thank you both for such an incredible mind blowing interview. All of us know pesticides are no good, companies are making us sick, they’re then profiting on meds to supposedly make us a better. But, of course many of us don’t understand why and how, so we chose to ignore it. I know once I understand it’s very hard for me to turn a blind eye. I’m sorry Zen your family had to endure such evil all for the almighty dollar. It’s very sad how humans can treat other humans. Your courageous and I admire what you stand for. I’ll be following your web page and passing it on to other like minded souls, as well as doing my best to support you. “ May the force be with you” and protect you! Thank you

    My go-to
    I can’t recall exactly how I came across Courtney, but I am now a devout podcast-listener and Instagram follower and look forward to her content. My journey started in 2013 when I had failed every diet and finally opted for weight loss surgery when I tipped the scale at over 300 lbs. I technically “failed” the surgery (as many people do) and didn’t even reach a healthy weight before I started re-gaining. In 2017, I adopted a ketogenic diet, which lead to more of a low glycemic approach, and now, embarking on 2024 I am in full blown health and biohack mode. I’m finally a healthy weight (down 148 lbs!) and hyper-focused on any and everything that comes near or goes in my body. Seed oils, toxic tap water, endocrine-disrupting fragrance… basically anything Courtney has ever talked about, it has also been on my radar (so I am happily in the podcast archives listening to topics I feel well-versed in already, but love hearing other people’s insights). I am prioritizing sleep, avoiding stress, taking quality supplements, and am SO stoked to report my biological age result from Function Health came back at 10.4 years younger than my actual age! I feel like I’m doing everything right and I have Courtney as my wingwoman and bff (only she doesn’t even know me). I will absolutely continue to follow her journey and hope that more people stumble upon her like I did. Her approach to providing eye-opening information without shoving it down your throat (and appropriately asking her podcast guests to speak in simpler terms so more people not so versed on the topic can understand) is exactly what the standard American needs. Thank you Courtney, for all that you do! ***Update 6/1/2024 — I listened to multiple podcast episodes today on a flight home without WiFi… and found myself putting less trust in the statements Courtney makes. A while back, she reposted an Instagram reel about McDonalds using Monitor (pesticide) on their potatoes. Now I’m not saying McDonalds is healthy or that anyone *should* eat their fries, but that reel was flagged by multiple fact-checked sites because that specific pesticide hasn’t been used since 2009. I messaged Courtney about the information not being accurate and she replied, “yeah well they just use a different one.” I don’t doubt they use a different one, but stop spreading fake news. Again, more recently, Courtney claimed, “the FDA requires seed oils be included in infant formula.” Not true. And again, I’m not defending the FDA, but the requirement is that infant formula contain linoleic acid, which CAN be derived from meat, eggs, seeds and nuts. It’s the formula companies that are choosing to use “vegetable oil” to fulfill this linoleic acid requirement. So yes, almost all infant formula contains seed oil, but not because the FDA requires seed oil. It’s not a huge deal, I’m still an Instagram follower and podcast listener on occasion — but I feel like I need to fact check any health claim she makes because I no longer trust that she’s stating current or accurate facts. Still love her, but will not be quick to share anything she says until I verify it.

    Corporate corruption episodes
    Both episodes with Calley and Casey were absolutely incredible. Truth is important. Thank you for having them on!

    Keep Fighting the Good Fight Courtney!
    The information Courtney shares in her podcast and on her Instagram is relevant and important. Kudos to her for going against the grain and fighting for what is right!
  • Beachgirltilltheend
    Sugar Addiction
    I love all of the content on this podcast, but the Sugar Addiction episode hit home because I am trying to educate my teen daughter in this topic. She is very much into studying drug and alcohol addiction therapy so this will draw a good correlation for her. Thank you!
  • Kassandra K.
    New favorite podcast!
    This has easily turned into one of my new favorite podcasts! So much incredible information and content and I love the guests she has on her show.

    Extremely informative
    My niece sent me this link a couple of months ago to listen to this podcast. She told me that it would help me on my journey as I move to a cleaner, healthier diet and help to heal my body. As a blind man podcasts are more of the best things that ever happened and this podcast and they weighed they approach Talking about food is absolutely wonderful. The guests and the host bring a lot of knowledge and depth to the conversation of healthy eating! Thank you very much for this podcast. It is extremely enjoyable and I look forward to listening for a long long time and navigating my way through all the older episodes to try to catch up! IG @learningtoblind

    Please Diversify Your Guests
    Courtney asks amazing questions and so far I have been really enjoying the podcast. However, I think she really needs to branch out more and diversify the people she chooses to interview. For someone who completely cured autoimmune issues through keto/carnivore, it’s baffling to see how many people come on here and recommend eating tons of plants/vegetables. Especially plants/vegetables that contain tons of anti-nutrients, tons of plant defense chemicals, and tons of inflammatory responses. Please interview someone like Sally Norton (an expert on oxalates) or Dr Anthony Chaffee a neurosurgeon who promotes carnivore, or Judy Cho an animal-based nutritionist. Animal-based eating is medicine.

    I can’t get enough of this podcast! So informative and Courtney provides tips and information in a way that is easy digestible and not overwhelming! I was already into these topics but have learned so much here!
  • cassiek25
    Great but one pet peeve
    I love this podcast. It’s really informative, and I enjoy the variety of topics covered. The one thing that bugs me is the way the host pronounces anecdotally. She says “Ane-dotally” every time. I realize how dumb this is, so I’m still giving it five stars, but if that will bug you, here’s your heads up.
  • Healthy & Fabulous
    Amazing Information in Every Episode
    I'm not used to listening to podcasts, and my first-ever podcast was one of Realfoodology's episodes. Now I'm a fan. I get so much important information about many crucial topics. Thank you, Courtney!
  • J.Schuerger
    Woah! Eyes wide open.
    This is such an informative show. Great content and easy to digest. I like how it provides a road map to make small changes that you can habit stack. It also provides hope when it seems like it’s such a daunting task. Keep up the great work!!
