Episode 220- Introducing the GoCoCo App to Make Label Reading a Breeze with Julie Ruelle, RD

Julie Ruelle is a registered dietitian and works alongside the GoCoCo team where she helps empower consumers to make informed decisions about their food by reducing reliance on ultra-processed products. The GoCoCo app was created to empower individuals to make healthier food choices by helping them avoid ultra-processed foods and their hidden health risks. This episode covered the basics of what ultra-processed foods are, how big food is driven by wealth (not consumers health), and exactly what the chemicals in the food system are!

WHAT WE DISCUSSED:

[6:32]- What led Julie to investigate the big food industry.

[9:16]- What EXACTLY are ultra-processed foods?

[15:20]- How are toxic chemicals getting into packaged foods and being labeled as generally recognized as safe?

[21:58]- Can you put individual ingredients into GoCoCo?

[25:30]- Is all food REALLY just good in moderation?

[34:05]- How natural flavors truly are not "natural."

[39:47]- Are seed oils really THAT inflammatory?!

[45:45]- How can someone make eating healthy more affordable?

[50:03]- Julie's frustrations when it comes to healthy eating and big food companies.

[53:19]- The features of the app, GoCoCo and how it can be used practically in daily life!
