Do you really know what’s hiding on your Thanksgiving plate? Beyond the nostalgic flavors and comforting traditions, there’s a darker side to the feast we often overlook—one that’s quietly impacting your health, the environment, and even your values. From sky-high fat and sugar levels to the chemicals and antibiotics hidden in every bite, these meals are more than indulgence; they’re a recipe for long-term damage.
In this episode of Fatal Conveniences, I take a deep dive into the science behind what makes the traditional Thanksgiving meal so problematic. We’ll explore how over-processed ingredients, excessive sodium, and factory farming practices are contributing to chronic health issues, antibiotic resistance, and environmental harm. But this isn’t about canceling Thanksgiving or shaming your traditions—it’s about awareness.
Let’s rethink Thanksgiving—not by giving up what we love, but by elevating it. If you’re ready to celebrate in a way that’s more thoughtful, healthy, and aligned with your values, this episode is for you.
I’ll guide you through easy and practical ways to reimagine your holiday menu with simple, science-backed changes that taste better and nourish your body.

We all know hydration is essential, but are we really approaching it the right way? In this episode of Superlife Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Tamara Hew-Butler, a seasoned researcher in exercise science, to break down what hydration truly means—and why it’s not as simple as “eight glasses a day.”
Together, we dig into the science of cellular hydration, explore the myths around dehydration, and discuss why overhydration can be just as harmful as not drinking enough.
We talk about our body’s natural ability to regulate water intake and also about the rising cases of kidney disease in athletes and outdoor workers and how environmental factors may be playing a role.
Dr. Tamara is an associate professor of exercise and sports science at Wayne State University, specializing in the physiology of hydration and electrolyte balance. Her research offers a fresh, science-backed perspective on hydration and health.

What if the timing of your meals is as crucial as what you’re eating? In today’s episode, I dive into the powerful connection between meal timing and your body’s natural rhythm—and why it matters more than most of us realize.
Breaking down the science behind circadian rhythms, I look at how eating earlier in the day supports better digestion, metabolism, and even mental clarity. Studies show that eating late not only disrupts sleep but can also lead to weight gain and a slower metabolism.
So, we’re going to break down why shifting calories to the first part of the day—following the body’s natural peak energy and digestive power—can transform your energy, mood, and long-term wellness.
Drawing on ancient wisdom from Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine, we see how these systems have always advocated for aligning meal timing with nature’s rhythms. Both recognize that eating in sync with your body’s energy peaks and dips has the potential to support everything from digestion to balanced energy and stable weight.
This episode is a return to basics: respecting the body’s natural flow for real, sustainable health.
If you’re looking to feel more in tune, support your metabolism, and bring ease to your routine, let’s rethink not just what’s on the plate, but when it hits the plate.
