Hey Heal Squad! In today’s episode, we’re joined by the incredible Jillian Michaels—world-renowned fitness expert, best-selling author, and host of the podcast Keeping It Real. Jillian dives deep into America’s health crisis, exposing how the food industry, big corporations, and government policies are failing us. She doesn’t hold back as she shares her experience at Senator Ron Johnson’s roundtable on the obesity epidemic and how big food and big pharma are putting profits over our health. From genetically engineered crops to the chemicals saturating our food supply, Jillian breaks down how these forces are contributing to skyrocketing rates of obesity, diabetes, and chronic disease in America. This is an eye-opening conversation that you won’t want to miss! Healers and Heal-Liners: Be Mindful of What You Eat: Avoid processed and chemically-laden foods by focusing on whole, natural ingredients. Shop for organic and non-GMO products whenever possible! Read Food Labels Carefully: Know what’s really in your food and avoid foods with long, unrecognizable ingredient lists. Educate Yourself About the Food System: Stay informed about the bigger issues behind America’s health crisis, like corporate influence on the food supply so you can make the best decisions for you and your family. Take Control of Your Health: Small, consistent changes can have a big impact. Focus on building a healthy lifestyle through balanced nutrition, regular exercise, and mindfulness.  HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website: https://www.healsquad.com/ Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy’s Page: Shop my Macy’s Wishlist OUAI: https://theouai.com/ use promo code: HEALSQUAD for 15% off Wonderful Pistachios: http://www.wonderfulpistachios.com/   Jillian’s Resources: Website: https://www.jillianmichaels.com/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jillianmichaels/?hl=en  Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/keeping-it-real-conversations-with-jillian-michaels/id418368811  Resources she mentioned:  Full Roundtable discussion american-health-and-nutrition-a-second-opinion.html">https://rumble.com/v5fy7bv-american-health-and-nutrition-a-second-opinion.html  ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos’ passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.
