We are all about physical wellness, eating well, and standing up for what you believe in. Our guest, client, and good friend, Vani Hari, embodies all of these things. Vani is the bold voice behind The Food Babe, a food activism blog dedicated to educating families about toxic ingredients and influencing large processed food brands to get rid of these ingredients. In this episode, Vani shares some of her biggest wins, what you need to look out for when you’re shopping for your kids, and her new book, The Food Babe Family.
Vani Hari is a revolutionary food activist, a New York Times best-selling author, co-founder of the organic food brand Truvani, and was named one of the “Most Influential People on the Internet” by Time magazine. Hari started FoodBabe.com to spread information about what is really in the American food supply. She teaches people how to make the right purchasing decisions at the grocery store, how to live an organic lifestyle, and how to travel healthfully around the world.

Some key takeaways from this episode include:
Standards for food ingredients in the U.S. are way different than in other countries. Companies like Kellogg’s have formulated their products in Europe without dyes or artificial ingredients, but in the U.S. they go the cheaper route and keep those ingredients in.
There’s a misconception that the FDA tests and monitors the chemicals and ingredients that go into our food, but there are over 3,000 chemicals in American foods right now that have never been tested or even looked into.
If there’s one thing to watch out for on labels, it’s “natural flavor.” It’s a way for processed food companies to use fruits like apples and dye them to look like other foods like blueberries. “Natural flavors” cause picky eaters and hijack our taste buds.
