What’s really hiding in your pantry—and how is it affecting your health? In this powerful episode, Joey Pinz sits down with Registered Dietitian Julie Ruelle to uncover the truth about ultra-processed foods and how they impact focus, energy, metabolism, and long-term health.

Julie explains the key difference between processed and ultra-processed foods, why nearly 70% of supermarket products fall into the latter category, and how additives like food dyes and citric acid sneak into everyday items. From oils and enriched flour to hidden sugars and “natural flavors,” she breaks down what to watch for and how to shop smarter without falling into restrictive eating habits.

✨ Top 3 Highlights:

The shocking link between ultra-processed foods and type 2 diabetes.
Practical label-reading tips that can change your grocery game.
Why food is medicine—and how small shifts create lasting results.

Julie also shares how technology and AI, like the GoCoCo app, can help consumers decode labels, track progress, and build sustainable eating habits. If you’ve ever wondered how to fuel your body for real health—not fad diets—this episode will change how you look at food forever.
