286. Are You Nutrient Deficient or Food Deficient?
Description
In this episode, Matt and Chris return to the studio to tackle the growing obsession with supplements and synthetic nutrients in modern health culture. Using creatine, peptides, and GLP-1 drugs as examples, they question whether our fixation on isolated nutrients is leading us further away from true health. Drawing from decades of nutrition and wellness experience, they argue that the real solution lies in returning to whole, unprocessed foods — “eating food, not nutrients.” The hosts break down how overreliance on synthetic supplements and appetite-suppressing drugs contributes to nutrient deficiencies, muscle loss, gut issues, and declining metabolic health. Through stories, research, and real-world insights from the supplement industry, Matt and Chris make a compelling case for rethinking our relationship with food, simplicity, and balance.
