Bad Things in Good Foods
Did you know that some of the foods we eat every day— fruits, vegetables, and even so-called “health foods”— can contain invisible chemicals and toxic substances? Learn how these “bad things in good foods” may influence how our bodies grow, develop, and maintain heart and metabolic health. We will examine the surprising connections between what’s on our plate and long-term risks for conditions like diabetes and heart disease.
