[Lori Taylor]: your show. You’ve been doing
a lot. And if anyone else is confused with
49
00:02:01,118 –> 00:02:05,300
[Lori Taylor]: me about what the World Health
Organization’s claims are with the new Diet
50
00:02:06,320 –> 00:02:09,882
[Lori Taylor]: Coke and all that, that’s just
happened, it’s like, anyone who drinks Diet
51
00:02:09,922 –> 00:02:14,384
[Lori Taylor]: Coke, you know what I’m talking
about. Or maybe they don’t, Jackie. Maybe they
52
00:02:14,464 –> 00:02:14,684
[Lori Taylor]: don’t
53
00:02:14,550 –> 00:02:14,910
[jackie]: I’m
54
00:02:14,724 –> 00:02:14,964
[Lori Taylor]: know what
55
00:02:14,950 –> 00:02:15,331
[jackie]: worried.
56
00:02:15,004 –> 00:02:16,124
[Lori Taylor]: I’m talking about, but.
57
00:02:16,112 –> 00:02:20,318
[jackie]: I said, better they don’t and they
just go on living their lives, drinking a diet
58
00:02:20,338 –> 00:02:22,702
[jackie]: coke or two every day. Happy,
59
00:02:22,489 –> 00:02:23,114
[Lori Taylor]: There you go.
60
00:02:22,962 –> 00:02:24,024
[jackie]: happy to hear it.
61
00:02:23,960 –> 00:02:24,344
[Lori Taylor]: Okay,
62
00:02:24,084 –> 00:02:24,565
[jackie]: I’d be happy
63
00:02:24,464 –> 00:02:24,666
[Lori Taylor]: well.
64
00:02:24,585 –> 00:02:24,885
[jackie]: to hear it.
65
00:02:25,437 –> 00:02:29,318
[Lori Taylor]: I recently have been thoroughly
entertained on Jackie’s podcast, the business
66
00:02:29,358 –> 00:02:34,701
[Lori Taylor]: of wellness, listening to her
have that renegade style response to everything
67
00:02:34,721 –> 00:02:39,123
[Lori Taylor]: that’s happening with aspartame
and whatnot. So today we’re not talking about
68
00:02:39,183 –> 00:02:41,624
[Lori Taylor]: that. We’re talking about, you
know, you’re on the produce mom’s podcast.
69
00:02:41,644 –> 00:02:45,486
[Lori Taylor]: We’re talking fruits and vegetables.
And right now, Jackie, our theme here on the
70
00:02:45,506 –> 00:02:50,828
[Lori Taylor]: podcast is superfoods. And when
I kicked this theme off, shame on me. I did
71
00:02:50,928 –> 00:02:56,840
[Lori Taylor]: not. I did not open up my strunken
white of nutrition. on the side by Jackie London.
72
00:02:57,677 –> 00:03:02,799
[Lori Taylor]: But in my introductory remarks
to this little mini series or theme, I said,
73
00:03:03,419 –> 00:03:08,982
[Lori Taylor]: superfoods, this is a food marketer
term in a way, like is it defined? I don’t
74
00:03:09,002 –> 00:03:13,464
[Lori Taylor]: know if it is. And as, yeah,
I’m watching you shake your head, but like
75
00:03:14,344 –> 00:03:18,466
[Lori Taylor]: I just feel like I need to turn
the mic over to you because we can’t be talking
76
00:03:18,546 –> 00:03:22,528
[Lori Taylor]: superfood, superfood and singing
the praises without actually getting that scientific
77
00:03:22,588 –> 00:03:27,090
[Lori Taylor]: voice, which you have. I mean,
you have all the initials after your last name.
78
00:03:27,591 –> 00:03:30,452
[Lori Taylor]: This is what you’ve studied.
You are a registered dietitian. You’re one
79
00:03:30,492 –> 00:03:36,456
[Lori Taylor]: of the leading voices for dietitians
in America and beyond. So help me break through
80
00:03:36,556 –> 00:03:43,940
[Lori Taylor]: and really kind of, I guess,
qualify that disclaimer I shared during the
81
00:03:44,060 –> 00:03:49,183
[Lori Taylor]: introductory episode of like,
yeah, I’m a food marketer. I know that, you
82
00:03:49,203 –> 00:03:51,144
[Lori Taylor]: know, like we overuse this term.
83
00:03:52,698 –> 00:03:57,202
[jackie]: I mean it’s such a great question.
It’s such a great topic because you know I’m
84
00:03:57,262 –> 00:04:01,585
[jackie]: thinking and I’m looking back to some
of my notes from Dressing on the Side also
85
00:04:01,625 –> 00:04:06,209
[jackie]: which is crazy to think that this
book came out in 2019 and when it came out
86
00:04:06,929 –> 00:04:11,529
[jackie]: I I had written a lot about the topic
and what I called in the book, the super fraud
87
00:04:11,609 –> 00:04:16,013
[jackie]: of super foods, right? Because this
is of course a true marketing term, which we
88
00:04:16,033 –> 00:04:19,295
[jackie]: can all understand. I actually, the
crazy, the reason why I mentioned the date
89
00:04:19,315 –> 00:04:23,379
[jackie]: Lori is because I think I’m thinking
now about how many cultural touch points we
90
00:04:23,439 –> 00:04:28,964
[jackie]: have of, um, of the word super. Like
we’re using the word super with increased frequency.
91
00:04:28,984 –> 00:04:32,266
[jackie]: It’s almost like super fraud. That’s
like a canary. And I mean, super food was like
92
00:04:32,286 –> 00:04:33,387
[jackie]: a canary in the coal mine
93
00:04:33,601 –> 00:04:34,472
[Lori Taylor]: Right, right.
94
00:04:34,308 –> 00:04:40,008
[jackie]: of using words that have this prefix
of super the thing and the real issue that
95
00:04:40,048 –> 00:04:43,431
[jackie]: I have with it is one that it’s an
undefined term right so
96
00:04:43,381 –> 00:04:43,741
[Lori Taylor]: Yeah,
97
00:04:43,451 –> 00:04:44,091
[jackie]: there’s just
98
00:04:44,062 –> 00:04:44,202
[Lori Taylor]: it’s
99
00:04:44,131 –> 00:04:44,432
[jackie]: that
100
00:04:44,262 –> 00:04:44,643
[Lori Taylor]: tough,
101
00:04:44,472 –> 00:04:45,272
[jackie]: first and foremost
102
00:04:45,464 –> 00:04:45,765
[Lori Taylor]: right?
103
00:04:45,492 –> 00:04:46,693
[jackie]: undefined
104
00:04:46,406 –> 00:04:46,726
[Lori Taylor]: It’s kind of
105
00:04:46,713 –> 00:04:46,813
[jackie]: the
106
00:04:46,746 –> 00:04:50,273
[Lori Taylor]: like locally grown. I’m gonna
throw that in there into the mix
107
00:04:50,170 –> 00:04:51,210
[jackie]: Exactly.
108
00:04:50,313 –> 00:04:52,957
[Lori Taylor]: too. It’s like define local,
right? Yeah,
109
00:04:53,390 –> 00:04:53,570
[jackie]: It’s
110
00:04:53,478 –> 00:04:53,738
[Lori Taylor]: yeah,
111
00:04:53,590 –> 00:04:54,391
[jackie]: such a great point.
112
00:04:54,600 –> 00:04:54,800
[Lori Taylor]: yeah.
113
00:04:54,771 –> 00:04:59,492
[jackie]: The other really interesting thing,
so while it’s undefined by the FDA, by the
114
00:04:59,592 –> 00:05:03,693
[jackie]: FTC for food marketing purposes, the
dictionary actually has a definition of it.
115
00:05:04,052 –> 00:05:04,260
[Lori Taylor]: Ooh.
116
00:05:04,413 –> 00:05:08,775
[jackie]: And it makes me feel a little bit
like I’m left head scratching. I will read
117
00:05:08,815 –> 00:05:13,936
[jackie]: it to you. A food such as salmon,
broccoli, or blueberries that’s rich in compounds
118
00:05:14,036 –> 00:05:18,917
[jackie]: such as antioxidants, fiber, or fatty
acids considered beneficial to a person’s health.
119
00:05:20,194 –> 00:05:25,516
[jackie]: I mean, okay. So like that’s a solid
definition, solid definition, right? And it’s
120
00:05:25,576 –> 00:05:30,878
[jackie]: true that those foods, those examples
given by the dictionary are pretty good examples,
121
00:05:30,938 –> 00:05:36,601
[jackie]: right? The gripe that I have with
calling any food in isolation super is that
122
00:05:36,701 –> 00:05:42,003
[jackie]: no one is achieving any type of miracle
health benefit from having a serving of broccoli
123
00:05:42,143 –> 00:05:49,978
[jackie]: in a dietary pattern that’s otherwise
riddled with I mean, foods are only gonna be
124
00:05:50,098 –> 00:05:53,619
[jackie]: as super for you as the context
125
00:05:53,686 –> 00:05:53,870
[Lori Taylor]: Yeah.
126
00:05:53,699 –> 00:05:58,640
[jackie]: and the consistency with which you’re
adding them in to your everyday meals and snacks.
127
00:05:58,789 –> 00:05:59,179
[Lori Taylor]: truth.
128
00:05:59,001 –> 00:06:03,782
[jackie]: So health benefits can be subjective,
they can be overblown when taken out of context,
129
00:06:04,522 –> 00:06:07,803
[jackie]: because like on the other, on the
flip side of this, if you’re just having salmon,
130
00:06:07,823 –> 00:06:11,104
[jackie]: blueberries, and broccoli at every
meal, there can be risks associated with that
131
00:06:11,144 –> 00:06:17,090
[jackie]: too, right? So like if the dose makes
the poison in anything, then surely… have
132
00:06:17,130 –> 00:06:21,492
[jackie]: to be mindful of considering that
when we talk about the topic of superfoods.
133
00:06:21,852 –> 00:06:27,034
[jackie]: So yeah, I like the concept. Is it
going to be foods with additional fiber, like
134
00:06:27,174 –> 00:06:30,696
[jackie]: real wholesome foods with additional
fiber that are naturally filled with fiber
135
00:06:30,716 –> 00:06:35,198
[jackie]: that are naturally filled with antioxidants
and essential fatty acids? That seems pretty
136
00:06:35,238 –> 00:06:39,740
[jackie]: much benign enough. If we, if you
see it on food labels, if you’re looking, you’re
137
00:06:39,760 –> 00:06:43,370
[jackie]: shopping at the grocery store and
you’re seeing it different places, but it’s
138
00:06:43,470 –> 00:06:47,873
[jackie]: not so satisfying from as a dietician,
from my perspective, because I don’t think
139
00:06:47,893 –> 00:06:51,716
[jackie]: it gives the full picture of what
that actually means for you. And you know,
140
00:06:51,756 –> 00:06:55,278
[jackie]: Lori, like I’m always landing on the
side of what does this mean to the everyday
141
00:06:55,298 –> 00:06:56,439
[jackie]: consumer? And if
142
00:06:56,447 –> 00:06:56,672
[Lori Taylor]: Right.
143
00:06:56,479 –> 00:07:00,562
[jackie]: it’s not very clear and apparent and
really meaningful to you, and if it feels like
144
00:07:00,582 –> 00:07:04,284
[jackie]: it’s just gonna be kind of fraudulent
to the everyday consumer, then that’s where
145
00:07:04,525 –> 00:07:05,705
[jackie]: like my kind of heckles go up.
146
00:07:06,133 –> 00:07:13,456
[Lori Taylor]: Right, right. Well, okay, so
thank you. Fantastic renegade discourse there,
147
00:07:13,386 –> 00:07:13,468
[jackie]: I’m
148
00:07:13,476 –> 00:07:13,596
[Lori Taylor]: which
149
00:07:13,508 –> 00:07:13,671
[jackie]: going to
150
00:07:13,636 –> 00:07:13,716
[Lori Taylor]: is
151
00:07:13,691 –> 00:07:13,792
[jackie]: go to
152
00:07:13,756 –> 00:07:13,856
[Lori Taylor]: what
153
00:07:13,813 –> 00:07:13,874
[jackie]: bed.
154
00:07:13,896 –> 00:07:16,517
[Lori Taylor]: I was expecting. Now,
155
00:07:16,374 –> 00:07:17,149
[jackie]: But I’m here for it.
156
00:07:17,658 –> 00:07:22,960
[Lori Taylor]: in addition to that, let’s help
qualify now your expertise because Jackie isn’t
157
00:07:22,980 –> 00:07:27,982
[Lori Taylor]: just my friend who wrote a book
who went to school studying nutrition and has
158
00:07:28,022 –> 00:07:33,624
[Lori Taylor]: her RD. Let’s talk about your
background in research, clinical practice.
159
00:07:34,049 –> 00:07:37,072
[Lori Taylor]: what you’ve done in the media,
et cetera, if you don’t mind, just to help,
160
00:07:37,373 –> 00:07:39,776
[Lori Taylor]: you know, for anyone who hasn’t
tuned in to one of your previous episodes.
161
00:07:39,850 –> 00:07:45,233
[jackie]: Yeah. So I got my start in clinical
nutrition. I worked, I’m talking to you live
162
00:07:45,253 –> 00:07:49,156
[jackie]: from New York City. Where I was born
and raised.
163
00:07:49,129 –> 00:07:49,289
[Lori Taylor]: We
164
00:07:49,216 –> 00:07:49,436
[jackie]: So
165
00:07:49,330 –> 00:07:51,156
[Lori Taylor]: should be up, I’ll do cheese
right now.
166
00:07:51,177 –> 00:07:52,598
[jackie]: I wish that we were.
167
00:07:52,521 –> 00:07:52,883
[Lori Taylor]: I know.
168
00:07:52,678 –> 00:07:52,938
[jackie]: Oh my
169
00:07:52,903 –> 00:07:53,003
[Lori Taylor]: Ha ha
170
00:07:52,998 –> 00:07:53,399
[jackie]: gosh,
171
00:07:53,023 –> 00:07:53,063
[Lori Taylor]: ha.
172
00:07:53,459 –> 00:07:57,641
[jackie]: Lori, how glorious would that be?
Oh, what a wonderful place. Meanwhile, that
173
00:07:57,681 –> 00:08:00,043
[jackie]: Valdez is a Panera now. Not to take
us too off
174
00:08:00,017 –> 00:08:00,138
[Lori Taylor]: Oh
175
00:08:00,083 –> 00:08:00,403
[jackie]: topic,
176
00:08:00,259 –> 00:08:00,984
[Lori Taylor]: shoot,
177
00:08:00,423 –> 00:08:01,524
[jackie]: but it’s a sad story.
178
00:08:01,245 –> 00:08:01,890
[Lori Taylor]: okay.
179
00:08:02,104 –> 00:08:02,965
[jackie]: The sad story. I know.
180
00:08:03,178 –> 00:08:03,460
[Lori Taylor]: Oh.
181
00:08:04,074 –> 00:08:10,300
[jackie]: But anyway, I got my start in nutrition
working as a clinician in stroke and brain
182
00:08:10,341 –> 00:08:15,066
[jackie]: injury rehab at a hospital here in
New York City. I was there for a number of
183
00:08:15,126 –> 00:08:19,931
[jackie]: years and also worked at the same
time at night. I would work in private practice
184
00:08:19,951 –> 00:08:23,915
[jackie]: nutrition, working primarily with
athletes. Um, and with other individuals who
185
00:08:23,935 –> 00:08:29,038
[jackie]: were looking for weight management
solutions and strategies, um, and it was really
186
00:08:29,178 –> 00:08:33,381
[jackie]: eyeopening. I mean, that’s really
what got my start into everything. And I really
187
00:08:33,401 –> 00:08:37,884
[jackie]: wanted to do what I was doing at,
at a larger scale in whatever capacity was
188
00:08:38,025 –> 00:08:42,107
[jackie]: possible for me. And that was when
I heard about this job at good housekeeping,
189
00:08:42,127 –> 00:08:47,992
[jackie]: which was amazing and really fortuitous.
So I wound up as the nutrition director for
190
00:08:48,092 –> 00:08:51,946
[jackie]: good housekeeping for a number of
years as well, which was wonderful. I started
191
00:08:52,406 –> 00:08:58,089
[jackie]: a program there that is a licensing,
um, an incubator program for different food
192
00:08:58,110 –> 00:09:04,733
[jackie]: companies. So essentially like a consultancy
within Hearst tower, um, that was a, it’s still
193
00:09:04,753 –> 00:09:08,255
[jackie]: going, the program’s still quite successful
as far as I can see from the
194
00:09:08,290 –> 00:09:08,557
[Lori Taylor]: Yeah.
195
00:09:08,335 –> 00:09:14,879
[jackie]: outside, but, um, I left there in
2019 to take the role of head of nutrition
196
00:09:14,919 –> 00:09:18,901
[jackie]: and wellness at Weight Watchers and
was there for two years. And that was its own
197
00:09:18,921 –> 00:09:24,612
[jackie]: fascinating. experience. But my whole
goal throughout my career has really been research
198
00:09:24,692 –> 00:09:28,034
[jackie]: based, like evidence based, but for
real people and real life. And
199
00:09:28,052 –> 00:09:28,196
[Lori Taylor]: Mm-hmm.
200
00:09:28,394 –> 00:09:33,377
[jackie]: using that background and experience
to apply to what are the solutions, what are
201
00:09:33,417 –> 00:09:37,979
[jackie]: the problems that people are expressing
to me on a regular basis, on a consistent basis.
202
00:09:38,039 –> 00:09:41,361
[jackie]: I’ve always had an ear to the ground
with what are people talking about? What are
203
00:09:41,381 –> 00:09:45,344
[jackie]: the concerns that are coming up? Whether
it was at good housekeeping, in the hospital,
204
00:09:45,464 –> 00:09:50,858
[jackie]: working in private practice at every
phase of my career. And what has been amazing
205
00:09:50,878 –> 00:09:55,060
[jackie]: to me is that so many of the things
that trip people up when it comes to building
206
00:09:55,100 –> 00:10:00,122
[jackie]: healthier habits or making more nutritious
food choices are so much of like the noise
207
00:10:00,142 –> 00:10:07,265
[jackie]: that just comes at you when it comes
to finding food that is right for you, your
208
00:10:07,305 –> 00:10:12,987
[jackie]: family, your lifestyle, whether that’s
budget or otherwise, and finding nutritious
209
00:10:13,067 –> 00:10:16,449
[jackie]: options and putting them together
in ways that are truly tasty, delicious, and
210
00:10:16,489 –> 00:10:17,129
[jackie]: things that you look
211
00:10:17,133 –> 00:10:17,615
[Lori Taylor]: That’s
212
00:10:17,169 –> 00:10:18,029
[jackie]: forward to eating.
213
00:10:18,317 –> 00:10:18,739
[Lori Taylor]: things that
214
00:10:18,642 –> 00:10:18,802
[jackie]: and
215
00:10:18,759 –> 00:10:19,040
[Lori Taylor]: people
216
00:10:18,922 –> 00:10:19,822
[jackie]: that
217
00:10:19,100 –> 00:10:19,984
[Lori Taylor]: want to eat.
218
00:10:19,902 –> 00:10:20,642
[jackie]: exactly
219
00:10:20,104 –> 00:10:20,967
[Lori Taylor]: It’s not nutrition
220
00:10:20,862 –> 00:10:21,082
[jackie]: what you
221
00:10:21,008 –> 00:10:21,269
[Lori Taylor]: until
222
00:10:21,122 –> 00:10:21,382
[jackie]: want to
223
00:10:21,289 –> 00:10:21,690
[Lori Taylor]: it’s eaten,
224
00:10:21,483 –> 00:10:21,643
[jackie]: eat.
225
00:10:21,891 –> 00:10:22,212
[Lori Taylor]: right?
226
00:10:22,623 –> 00:10:25,084
[jackie]: Lori could not have said that better.
That’s exactly
227
00:10:24,622 –> 00:10:24,832
[Lori Taylor]: Yeah.
228
00:10:25,124 –> 00:10:28,625
[jackie]: it. It’s not nutrition until it’s
eaten. And I think maybe that’s probably why
229
00:10:28,665 –> 00:10:33,507
[jackie]: my visceral reaction to superfoods
is really there is because a superfood is only
230
00:10:33,547 –> 00:10:38,188
[jackie]: as good as how often are you eating
it? The context and consistency in which you’re
231
00:10:38,228 –> 00:10:40,429
[jackie]: consuming that food. So that’s
232
00:10:40,322 –> 00:10:40,587
[Lori Taylor]: Yeah.
233
00:10:40,489 –> 00:10:41,149
[jackie]: my background
234
00:10:41,005 –> 00:10:41,385
[Lori Taylor]: Well, thank
235
00:10:41,389 –> 00:10:41,449
[jackie]: in
236
00:10:41,425 –> 00:10:41,545
[Lori Taylor]: you.
237
00:10:41,509 –> 00:10:41,909
[jackie]: a nutshell.
238
00:10:41,645 –> 00:10:45,247
[Lori Taylor]: Yeah, well, thank you. Because
your background helps set the tone of your
239
00:10:45,267 –> 00:10:50,529
[Lori Taylor]: authority here and why you are
the voice that I trust and go to when I need
240
00:10:50,629 –> 00:10:53,951
[Lori Taylor]: a nutrition advisor for the work
that we’re doing at the Produce Moms. Jackie
241
00:10:53,971 –> 00:10:58,773
[Lori Taylor]: helps me behind the scenes a
lot. And I know that if we ever need to qualify
242
00:10:58,813 –> 00:11:05,176
[Lori Taylor]: something or vet something, she’s
our trusted resource for that. So now, so let’s
243
00:11:05,196 –> 00:11:09,698
[Lori Taylor]: talk about this. Because I think
that there are, in fact, Jackie, I mean, true
244
00:11:09,738 –> 00:11:15,024
[Lori Taylor]: or false? that have heightened
nutritional properties than other foods. That’s
245
00:11:15,044 –> 00:11:15,465
[Lori Taylor]: an obvious
246
00:11:15,246 –> 00:11:15,986
[jackie]: Absolutely.
247
00:11:15,545 –> 00:11:17,708
[Lori Taylor]: true. Right.
248
00:11:17,607 –> 00:11:22,130
[jackie]: And I think our refusal to acknowledge
that. So like, I hope that listeners will,
249
00:11:22,150 –> 00:11:25,772
[jackie]: well, that this is clear for listeners
because I don’t want to sound like I’m talking
250
00:11:25,812 –> 00:11:29,894
[jackie]: out of two sides of my mouth, but
I almost do want to sound like that.
251
00:11:29,813 –> 00:11:30,134
[Lori Taylor]: Yeah,
252
00:11:29,955 –> 00:11:30,155
[jackie]: Right?
253
00:11:30,154 –> 00:11:30,797
[Lori Taylor]: you have to.
254
00:11:31,015 –> 00:11:35,418
[jackie]: Right. You kind of have to. It’s like
the nuance of it all. Right? On one hand, I,
255
00:11:35,618 –> 00:11:40,881
[jackie]: I again, foods can only be as nutritious
for you as the context and the consistency
256
00:11:41,061 –> 00:11:45,404
[jackie]: in in the ways that they’re consumed,
right? But on the other side, we have to acknowledge
257
00:11:45,424 –> 00:11:48,707
[jackie]: that there are foods that are more
nutritious than others. And I see a lot of
258
00:11:48,747 –> 00:11:53,150
[jackie]: stuff online lately that’s like, all
food is created equal. And the truth is like,
259
00:11:53,370 –> 00:11:57,253
[jackie]: yeah, all food has a place, but that
doesn’t mean that all food is as nutritious
260
00:11:57,393 –> 00:11:58,874
[jackie]: as one another. So
261
00:11:58,949 –> 00:11:59,333
[Lori Taylor]: Correct.
262
00:11:59,315 –> 00:12:04,799
[jackie]: veggies and fruit, I mean, produce,
I would call all produce the superest of superfoods.
263
00:12:05,019 –> 00:12:05,199
[jackie]: There,
264
00:12:05,217 –> 00:12:05,459
[Lori Taylor]: Right.
265
00:12:05,299 –> 00:12:07,561
[jackie]: I made up a new word, the superest.
266
00:12:08,301 –> 00:12:08,461
[Lori Taylor]: Well,
267
00:12:08,321 –> 00:12:08,421
[jackie]: Ha!
268
00:12:09,261 –> 00:12:13,123
[Lori Taylor]: and we’ve done that through the
consulting work that I did and my business
269
00:12:13,163 –> 00:12:17,205
[Lori Taylor]: did with Kroger for the Opt-Up
technology that they introduced to help their
270
00:12:17,245 –> 00:12:23,708
[Lori Taylor]: shoppers understand nutrition.
One of the key phrases that was really the
271
00:12:23,748 –> 00:12:28,350
[Lori Taylor]: produce moms contribution to
their strategy was all fruits and vegetables
272
00:12:28,630 –> 00:12:31,011
[Lori Taylor]: are green category foods and
they use
273
00:12:30,934 –> 00:12:31,398
[jackie]: Yes,
274
00:12:31,031 –> 00:12:34,053
[Lori Taylor]: the stoplight
275
00:12:31,438 –> 00:12:33,153
[jackie]: that’s right. Yeah.
276
00:12:34,073 –> 00:12:39,255
[Lori Taylor]: analogy to help people navigate
what’s the most nutritious stuff store and
277
00:12:39,375 –> 00:12:44,679
[Lori Taylor]: green was like go all in, like
go, accelerate. These are the foods you want
278
00:12:44,699 –> 00:12:50,643
[Lori Taylor]: to eat the most of. And so I
even use the tagline like within the produce
279
00:12:50,683 –> 00:12:55,186
[Lori Taylor]: department, everything is a,
you know, when we were using the lens of opt
280
00:12:55,286 –> 00:12:58,648
[Lori Taylor]: up, everything is a green category
food in the post part. The post department
281
00:12:58,688 –> 00:13:01,610
[Lori Taylor]: is your destination for the best
for you foods. I
282
00:13:01,610 –> 00:13:02,051
[jackie]: Yes.
283
00:13:01,670 –> 00:13:04,272
[Lori Taylor]: still believe that to be true.
Um,
284
00:13:03,554 –> 00:13:04,596
[jackie]: You’re a thousand
285
00:13:04,312 –> 00:13:04,512
[Lori Taylor]: but
286
00:13:04,636 –> 00:13:04,997
[jackie]: percent
287
00:13:04,692 –> 00:13:05,493
[Lori Taylor]: you know, truthfully
288
00:13:05,117 –> 00:13:05,558
[jackie]: right.
289
00:13:05,533 –> 00:13:10,356
[Lori Taylor]: though, Jackie, even as someone
and I’ve marketed and I’ve been trusted with
290
00:13:11,076 –> 00:13:15,740
[Lori Taylor]: innovation and downstream communication
strategies by all most of the vendors in the
291
00:13:15,760 –> 00:13:22,924
[Lori Taylor]: produce department and even within
fruit and vegetable and produce you have different
292
00:13:23,004 –> 00:13:28,468
[Lori Taylor]: echelons like there are certain
produce items that offer you nutrition and
293
00:13:28,728 –> 00:13:33,692
[Lori Taylor]: a comprehensive nutrition offering
that others don’t like when you think about
294
00:13:33,872 –> 00:13:37,374
[Lori Taylor]: the nutrition panel of a kiwi
fruit for instance bite for bite what you’re
295
00:13:37,394 –> 00:13:41,986
[Lori Taylor]: getting in fruit is tremendous
compared to many of the other fruit options
296
00:13:42,006 –> 00:13:44,112
[Lori Taylor]: that are in the produce department.
297
00:13:44,842 –> 00:13:49,806
[jackie]: Yes. Yeah. You know, that’s such a
good point. I, well, but I, but what I think,
298
00:13:49,986 –> 00:13:54,591
[jackie]: what I think is the confused component
of introducing the word superfood into all
299
00:13:54,651 –> 00:13:59,536
[jackie]: of this is that that’s exactly it.
Lori, like these, these different types of
300
00:13:59,576 –> 00:14:03,820
[jackie]: veggies and fruit bring different
benefits to the table. So I have been asked
301
00:14:03,840 –> 00:14:07,163
[jackie]: this and I can’t even tell you, I
just gave me a little flashback to this article
302
00:14:07,203 –> 00:14:09,705
[jackie]: that I wrote and I actually recently
updated.
303
00:14:10,462 –> 00:14:10,867
[Lori Taylor]: Oh good.
304
00:14:10,806 –> 00:14:15,609
[jackie]: for good housekeeping and it was about
like the healthiest fruit and veg. And I basically
305
00:14:15,629 –> 00:14:18,870
[jackie]: was like in the headline, like that’s
the headline because that’s, that’s the type
306
00:14:18,890 –> 00:14:21,012
[jackie]: of headline that, you know, sees
307
00:14:21,177 –> 00:14:21,298
[Lori Taylor]: the
308
00:14:21,272 –> 00:14:21,432
[jackie]: some
309
00:14:21,318 –> 00:14:21,681
[Lori Taylor]: internet
310
00:14:21,552 –> 00:14:22,132
[jackie]: ROI
311
00:14:21,721 –> 00:14:22,125
[Lori Taylor]: wants.
312
00:14:22,212 –> 00:14:22,392
[jackie]: from
313
00:14:22,246 –> 00:14:22,548
[Lori Taylor]: Yeah,
314
00:14:22,512 –> 00:14:22,933
[jackie]: exactly
315
00:14:22,629 –> 00:14:22,932
[Lori Taylor]: that’s,
316
00:14:22,993 –> 00:14:23,233
[jackie]: from the
317
00:14:23,154 –> 00:14:23,355
[Lori Taylor]: yeah.
318
00:14:23,293 –> 00:14:28,596
[jackie]: internet. But the, the rest of the
introduction was basically like, there’s really
319
00:14:28,636 –> 00:14:30,037
[jackie]: no such thing as this. It’s just
320
00:14:29,963 –> 00:14:30,250
[Lori Taylor]: Okay.
321
00:14:30,077 –> 00:14:34,159
[jackie]: a question of the diversity and the
versatility and how often you’re going to eat
322
00:14:34,199 –> 00:14:38,181
[jackie]: it per on a personal level that really
makes the difference in all of this because
323
00:14:38,674 –> 00:14:42,995
[jackie]: You’re so right. Like I was once shocked
to learn that kiwi, and this is again back
324
00:14:43,035 –> 00:14:47,317
[jackie]: to the marketing, is that kiwi has,
kiwi is the perfect example because it’s one
325
00:14:47,337 –> 00:14:52,119
[jackie]: of these fruits that has double the
vitamin C of an orange, I want to say.
326
00:14:52,253 –> 00:14:52,594
[Lori Taylor]: Yeah,
327
00:14:52,259 –> 00:14:52,699
[jackie]: I hope I’m not
328
00:14:52,694 –> 00:14:52,835
[Lori Taylor]: and
329
00:14:52,759 –> 00:14:53,119
[jackie]: misquoting
330
00:14:53,036 –> 00:14:53,236
[Lori Taylor]: like
331
00:14:53,139 –> 00:14:53,300
[jackie]: that,
332
00:14:53,296 –> 00:14:53,337
[Lori Taylor]: I
333
00:14:53,320 –> 00:14:53,400
[jackie]: but
334
00:14:53,357 –> 00:14:53,557
[Lori Taylor]: think
335
00:14:53,420 –> 00:14:56,821
[jackie]: I’m pretty sure that’s true.
336
00:14:54,802 –> 00:14:56,909
[Lori Taylor]: two if not three X on potassium.
337
00:14:56,981 –> 00:14:57,601
[jackie]: Yes,
338
00:14:57,571 –> 00:14:57,832
[Lori Taylor]: Yeah,
339
00:14:57,841 –> 00:14:58,242
[jackie]: right.
340
00:14:57,972 –> 00:14:58,253
[Lori Taylor]: there’s,
341
00:14:58,402 –> 00:14:58,502
[jackie]: And
342
00:14:58,534 –> 00:14:58,755
[Lori Taylor]: yeah.
343
00:14:58,562 –> 00:15:02,563
[jackie]: it’s like, it’s truly one of the most
nutritious, nutrient dense fruits that you
344
00:15:02,583 –> 00:15:06,805
[jackie]: can have. But does that matter to
someone that hates kiwi?
345
00:15:05,621 –> 00:15:06,583
[Lori Taylor]: No, no.
346
00:15:06,965 –> 00:15:07,265
[jackie]: Right?
347
00:15:07,064 –> 00:15:07,705
[Lori Taylor]: If you’re adverse
348
00:15:07,345 –> 00:15:07,685
[jackie]: And I mean…
349
00:15:07,725 –> 00:15:08,547
[Lori Taylor]: to the flavor, the
350
00:15:08,470 –> 00:15:09,370
[jackie]: Exactly.
351
00:15:08,587 –> 00:15:10,471
[Lori Taylor]: texture, no way. Yeah,
352
00:15:10,651 –> 00:15:10,731
[jackie]: And
353
00:15:10,652 –> 00:15:10,852
[Lori Taylor]: yeah.
354
00:15:10,911 –> 00:15:14,314
[jackie]: I, you know, I’m not really, I’m in
the business of getting people to expand their
355
00:15:14,354 –> 00:15:17,656
[jackie]: thinking and ultimately to hopefully
expand their palates when it comes
356
00:15:17,509 –> 00:15:17,792
[Lori Taylor]: Right?
357
00:15:17,696 –> 00:15:18,977
[jackie]: to veggies and fruit. But
358
00:15:18,905 –> 00:15:19,128
[Lori Taylor]: Right.
359
00:15:19,337 –> 00:15:21,919
[jackie]: I’m not going to force someone to
eat something that they don’t like or have
360
00:15:21,939 –> 00:15:25,362
[jackie]: an aversion to, or just simply they
want to try something different or something
361
00:15:25,422 –> 00:15:29,084
[jackie]: is on sale for that week. That’s hugely
important, especially in the
362
00:15:29,022 –> 00:15:29,123
[Lori Taylor]: Oh,
363
00:15:29,124 –> 00:15:29,505
[jackie]: produce
364
00:15:29,204 –> 00:15:29,305
[Lori Taylor]: 100%.
365
00:15:29,545 –> 00:15:29,765
[jackie]: aisle
366
00:15:29,568 –> 00:15:29,670
[Lori Taylor]: Yeah.
367
00:15:30,125 –> 00:15:34,570
[jackie]: because We want to incentivize people
to just have more and just try different things
368
00:15:34,650 –> 00:15:35,090
[jackie]: and try
369
00:15:34,884 –> 00:15:35,136
[Lori Taylor]: Mm-hmm.
370
00:15:35,110 –> 00:15:40,556
[jackie]: a variety of things because you’re
going to get different nutrients from different
371
00:15:40,637 –> 00:15:41,798
[jackie]: types of produce.
372
00:15:41,316 –> 00:15:41,568
[Lori Taylor]: Well…
373
00:15:41,878 –> 00:15:44,901
[jackie]: There’s always gonna be a value add
of trying something new.
374
00:15:45,225 –> 00:15:50,406
[Lori Taylor]: Another one of my great mentors
who is also an RD, Alison Shake, formerly of
375
00:15:50,446 –> 00:15:57,108
[Lori Taylor]: Kroger, she also was the one
who helped me realize nutrition is so personalized.
376
00:15:57,568 –> 00:15:57,788
[Lori Taylor]: What is
377
00:15:57,727 –> 00:15:58,074
[jackie]: Yes.
378
00:15:57,828 –> 00:16:04,650
[Lori Taylor]: nutritious for you is not necessarily
nutritious for even another member in your
379
00:16:04,690 –> 00:16:05,210
[Lori Taylor]: family.
380
00:16:06,606 –> 00:16:06,932
[jackie]: So true.
381
00:16:07,431 –> 00:16:14,011
[Lori Taylor]: We all have personalized needs
as it relates to our nutrition. So those, you
382
00:16:14,031 –> 00:16:17,905
[Lori Taylor]: know, I guess folks right now,
we’re just kind of calling out things that.
383
00:16:19,433 –> 00:16:22,914
[Lori Taylor]: in my opinion, if we’re going
to have a, if I’m going to have a mini series
384
00:16:22,954 –> 00:16:25,575
[Lori Taylor]: dedicated to superfoods, we got
to poke holes in this theme
385
00:16:25,866 –> 00:16:26,289
[jackie]: Yes.
386
00:16:26,076 –> 00:16:30,538
[Lori Taylor]: and identify like what, and you
know, we’re on the heels Jackie of a food is
387
00:16:30,578 –> 00:16:32,339
[Lori Taylor]: medicine theme where we talked
about
388
00:16:32,031 –> 00:16:32,193
[jackie]: Yeah.
389
00:16:32,419 –> 00:16:38,862
[Lori Taylor]: how that is truly a movement
that is cross-op com on many different sectors
390
00:16:38,830 –> 00:16:38,892
[jackie]: Hmm.
391
00:16:40,082 –> 00:16:45,605
[Lori Taylor]: where, you know, we, we now have
a huge mobilization of things like produce
392
00:16:45,645 –> 00:16:47,846
[Lori Taylor]: prescriptions, medically tailored
meals, et cetera.
393
00:16:48,078 –> 00:16:48,139
[jackie]: Mm.
394
00:16:48,406 –> 00:16:53,650
[Lori Taylor]: And so you know following that
here on the podcast is really meant to help
395
00:16:53,710 –> 00:17:00,255
[Lori Taylor]: kind of I guess elaborate on
the concept of food as medicine what are foods
396
00:17:00,295 –> 00:17:04,458
[Lori Taylor]: that can provide some of those
you know healing properties
397
00:17:04,738 –> 00:17:04,778
[jackie]: Mm.
398
00:17:06,240 –> 00:17:11,124
[Lori Taylor]: but you know your role in this
series is to help me poke holes at it and call
399
00:17:11,204 –> 00:17:16,268
[Lori Taylor]: out the call out some of the
BS and help people understand like hey there’s
400
00:17:17,565 –> 00:17:20,086
[Lori Taylor]: All produce is really good for
you, and it’s not
401
00:17:20,027 –> 00:17:20,492
[jackie]: A thousand
402
00:17:20,126 –> 00:17:20,566
[Lori Taylor]: nutrition
403
00:17:20,533 –> 00:17:20,917
[jackie]: percent.
404
00:17:20,586 –> 00:17:24,827
[Lori Taylor]: until it’s eaten. And then when
you consult your book and you look at that
405
00:17:25,468 –> 00:17:29,729
[Lori Taylor]: on page 66, I mean, your
406
00:17:29,567 –> 00:17:29,849
[jackie]: I love
407
00:17:29,789 –> 00:17:30,089
[Lori Taylor]: line
408
00:17:29,869 –> 00:17:30,250
[jackie]: that Laurie
409
00:17:30,149 –> 00:17:30,310
[Lori Taylor]: is,
410
00:17:30,270 –> 00:17:31,395
[jackie]: is on to the text.
411
00:17:31,470 –> 00:17:31,630
[Lori Taylor]: the
412
00:17:31,556 –> 00:17:31,917
[jackie]: Yes.
413
00:17:31,730 –> 00:17:36,472
[Lori Taylor]: super fraud of super foods, file
this under quote, meaningless terms that are
414
00:17:36,552 –> 00:17:37,152
[Lori Taylor]: everywhere.
415
00:17:37,454 –> 00:17:42,939
[jackie]: Hmm. Yeah. I mean, here’s the thing.
I will say that like, if we were to kind of
416
00:17:42,979 –> 00:17:46,763
[jackie]: redefine this or to chalk this up
and, and I used, you know, in no small part,
417
00:17:46,883 –> 00:17:50,346
[jackie]: I used the dictionary definition because
I found it helpful, right? It’s to kind of
418
00:17:50,386 –> 00:17:51,227
[jackie]: bring it back to
419
00:17:51,287 –> 00:17:51,514
[Lori Taylor]: Right.
420
00:17:51,748 –> 00:17:56,412
[jackie]: what are some of these like three
categories that actually make sense from the
421
00:17:56,452 –> 00:18:01,017
[jackie]: standpoint of saying what’s what about
food and nutrition, because we can’t avoid
422
00:18:01,137 –> 00:18:04,839
[jackie]: facts about foods, right? I mean we
want people to be educated about that and we
423
00:18:04,879 –> 00:18:09,360
[jackie]: want transparency. I mean that’s my
main goal with anything. So if we had to kind
424
00:18:09,380 –> 00:18:13,062
[jackie]: of redefine this I would give it three
main bucket categories.
425
00:18:12,814 –> 00:18:13,003
[Lori Taylor]: Okay.
426
00:18:13,802 –> 00:18:20,245
[jackie]: The first one would be plant foods
in their whole food form. So any foods that
427
00:18:20,285 –> 00:18:25,112
[jackie]: we can chew can be super. in some
way, right? It might be super emotionally comforting.
428
00:18:25,152 –> 00:18:30,196
[jackie]: It might be super from a nutritional
standpoint, but in particular, what I’m defining
429
00:18:30,216 –> 00:18:34,620
[jackie]: in this category is any vegetable
or fruit, any legume pulse crop, like chickpea,
430
00:18:34,660 –> 00:18:40,304
[jackie]: lentil, beans, peas, nuts and seeds,
a hundred percent whole grains, plant, like
431
00:18:40,664 –> 00:18:47,009
[jackie]: not vegetable seed or legume based
oils or any mix of those when used for actual.
432
00:18:47,150 –> 00:18:51,692
[jackie]: cooking purposes, right? Anything
that’s in its whole food state that’s used
433
00:18:51,712 –> 00:18:56,535
[jackie]: to either enhance flavor, make it
easier to cook that food so that you can have
434
00:18:56,575 –> 00:19:01,598
[jackie]: it in a different form or that food
itself and it’s raw form. So plants in just
435
00:19:01,638 –> 00:19:07,161
[jackie]: their whole food form provide optimal
nutrient composition for both short-term and
436
00:19:07,201 –> 00:19:12,143
[jackie]: long-term health and for weight management.
And the more that you have these foods in your
437
00:19:12,384 –> 00:19:19,325
[jackie]: everyday eating pattern, the more
super foodie. the more superfood filled your
438
00:19:19,585 –> 00:19:22,208
[jackie]: overall dietary pattern will be.
439
00:19:21,412 –> 00:19:21,685
[Lori Taylor]: Right.
440
00:19:22,268 –> 00:19:26,612
[jackie]: Now that being said, there’s two others.
The other one I would put into this category
441
00:19:26,632 –> 00:19:31,317
[jackie]: is plant-based ingredients with which
you cook or caffeinate. So spices, herbs, these
442
00:19:31,337 –> 00:19:36,442
[jackie]: can also have a ton of super quote-unquote
properties. Across the research though, we
443
00:19:36,482 –> 00:19:40,405
[jackie]: find that a lot of the promising studies
are the ones that look at an association, right?
444
00:19:40,445 –> 00:19:44,008
[jackie]: Like population studies, meaning that
their benefits are also better illustrated
445
00:19:44,368 –> 00:19:46,810
[jackie]: in the context of dietary patterns.
So
446
00:19:47,037 –> 00:19:47,377
[Lori Taylor]: Okay.
447
00:19:47,851 –> 00:19:48,011
[jackie]: like
448
00:19:47,998 –> 00:19:48,158
[Lori Taylor]: Help
449
00:19:48,171 –> 00:19:48,291
[jackie]: I
450
00:19:48,199 –> 00:19:49,501
[Lori Taylor]: me understand.
451
00:19:48,351 –> 00:19:49,132
[jackie]: use the example.
452
00:19:50,302 –> 00:19:51,103
[Lori Taylor]: That’s interesting.
453
00:19:50,693 –> 00:19:54,656
[jackie]: Yeah. A great example of this is something
like turmeric, right? Like turmeric
454
00:19:54,377 –> 00:19:54,598
[Lori Taylor]: Oh,
455
00:19:54,676 –> 00:19:54,877
[jackie]: gets
456
00:19:54,678 –> 00:19:54,959
[Lori Taylor]: yeah.
457
00:19:54,977 –> 00:19:56,838
[jackie]: so much press for being,
458
00:19:56,502 –> 00:19:56,743
[Lori Taylor]: Yeah.
459
00:19:57,038 –> 00:19:57,779
[jackie]: you know, so wonderful.
460
00:19:57,505 –> 00:19:58,507
[Lori Taylor]: Anti-inflammatory.
461
00:19:58,600 –> 00:19:59,220
[jackie]: Exactly.
462
00:19:58,708 –> 00:19:58,888
[Lori Taylor]: Yeah.
463
00:19:59,380 –> 00:20:03,339
[jackie]: And anti-inflammatory properties.
If you look at where this has really been studied
464
00:20:03,379 –> 00:20:07,463
[jackie]: and where it’s the most promising,
where the best research and the most well-powered
465
00:20:07,503 –> 00:20:13,828
[jackie]: research has occurred so far. And
that is when you look at populations that consume
466
00:20:13,968 –> 00:20:17,351
[jackie]: greater amounts of turmeric. So in
Indian populations where curry
467
00:20:16,997 –> 00:20:17,218
[Lori Taylor]: Sure.
468
00:20:17,411 –> 00:20:19,513
[jackie]: is like a primary cuisine
469
00:20:19,108 –> 00:20:19,349
[Lori Taylor]: Right.
470
00:20:19,553 –> 00:20:26,299
[jackie]: staple, you’re looking at the overall
context of dietary patterns. Lots of veggies,
471
00:20:26,599 –> 00:20:27,600
[jackie]: plant-based foods,
472
00:20:28,385 –> 00:20:28,668
[Lori Taylor]: Right.
473
00:20:28,681 –> 00:20:29,421
[jackie]: not the type of…
474
00:20:29,678 –> 00:20:29,880
[Lori Taylor]: Yeah.
475
00:20:29,742 –> 00:20:34,546
[jackie]: plant based that becomes Franken meat,
right? Like real whole food plants that we
476
00:20:34,566 –> 00:20:36,648
[jackie]: were talking about in the part one
of the definition, right?
477
00:20:36,677 –> 00:20:36,928
[Lori Taylor]: Sure.
478
00:20:37,028 –> 00:20:41,352
[jackie]: So as long as you can use these ingredients,
like when I’m talking about plants, herbs,
479
00:20:41,392 –> 00:20:46,117
[jackie]: spices, that become ingredients with
which you cook or caffeinate, what I’m talking
480
00:20:46,137 –> 00:20:52,843
[jackie]: about is ways that you can enhance
flavor or make it simpler for you to add flavor
481
00:20:52,923 –> 00:20:56,800
[jackie]: and to make those meals and snacks
that you really love. and make those ingredients
482
00:20:56,821 –> 00:20:59,368
[jackie]: that you really love into actual meals.
It’s really
483
00:20:59,258 –> 00:20:59,531
[Lori Taylor]: Wow.
484
00:20:59,408 –> 00:21:03,138
[jackie]: about the cooking process there and
less about the ingredients itself. So like
485
00:21:03,029 –> 00:21:03,329
[Lori Taylor]: I never
486
00:21:03,158 –> 00:21:03,399
[jackie]: when I
487
00:21:03,370 –> 00:21:03,670
[Lori Taylor]: thought
488
00:21:03,439 –> 00:21:04,001
[jackie]: see people.
489
00:21:03,911 –> 00:21:06,497
[Lori Taylor]: of the concept of superfoods
from that lens.
490
00:21:06,782 –> 00:21:07,582
[jackie]: Right? I
491
00:21:07,600 –> 00:21:07,800
[Lori Taylor]: Yeah.
492
00:21:07,602 –> 00:21:10,983
[jackie]: know it’s interesting because it’s
really like that’s one where I see so many
493
00:21:11,003 –> 00:21:14,984
[jackie]: people talking about, oh, what a super
turmeric, such a super food or like ginger,
494
00:21:15,024 –> 00:21:16,144
[jackie]: such a super food. When you
495
00:21:16,083 –> 00:21:16,247
[Lori Taylor]: Right.
496
00:21:16,184 –> 00:21:20,506
[jackie]: think about it, these are, these are
herbs, these are spices that we use to flavor
497
00:21:20,926 –> 00:21:23,167
[jackie]: already nutritious foods. And
498
00:21:23,096 –> 00:21:23,243
[Lori Taylor]: Right.
499
00:21:23,207 –> 00:21:28,248
[jackie]: you think about the overall patterns
and the populations in which these, the consumption
500
00:21:28,328 –> 00:21:32,778
[jackie]: of these ingredients is much higher.
And it makes complete sense. right? Because
501
00:21:32,818 –> 00:21:33,398
[jackie]: the overall
502
00:21:33,155 –> 00:21:33,344
[Lori Taylor]: Yeah.
503
00:21:33,438 –> 00:21:37,879
[jackie]: pattern is more nutrient dense. You’re
using these as flavor enhancers to consume
504
00:21:37,939 –> 00:21:41,640
[jackie]: foods that are also nutritious. And
then you get this kind of double whammy effect
505
00:21:41,840 –> 00:21:46,502
[jackie]: of wonder of super foodness.
506
00:21:45,049 –> 00:21:45,939
[Lori Taylor]: Sir, sir.
507
00:21:46,582 –> 00:21:50,743
[jackie]: And then my last category would be
plant-based ingredients that service fuel for
508
00:21:50,883 –> 00:21:55,625
[jackie]: animal and particularly marine protein
sources that you eat. So seafood across the
509
00:21:55,645 –> 00:22:00,955
[jackie]: board, I would call that super. But,
and of course there’s, there are some exceptions
510
00:22:01,035 –> 00:22:05,337
[jackie]: always to this rule, but the main
reason is because animals are eating plants,
511
00:22:05,497 –> 00:22:05,917
[jackie]: right? I mean,
512
00:22:05,965 –> 00:22:06,133
[Lori Taylor]: Mm-hmm.
513
00:22:06,157 –> 00:22:11,900
[jackie]: that’s also ultimately what we’re
getting back to is plants. The more plants
514
00:22:12,380 –> 00:22:17,443
[jackie]: that you, or the food that you eat
consumes, the more nutrient dense food becomes.
515
00:22:17,483 –> 00:22:21,625
[jackie]: So while I talk a lot about plants,
I’m by no means, uh, you know, a
516
00:22:21,481 –> 00:22:22,322
[Lori Taylor]: No, not at
517
00:22:22,265 –> 00:22:23,025
[jackie]: galvanizing
518
00:22:22,362 –> 00:22:23,764
[Lori Taylor]: all. You’ve never
519
00:22:23,085 –> 00:22:23,265
[jackie]: for
520
00:22:23,804 –> 00:22:29,752
[Lori Taylor]: been a voice of authority that
promotes an exclusionary diet or… Never.
521
00:22:29,992 –> 00:22:30,713
[Lori Taylor]: Yeah,
522
00:22:30,297 –> 00:22:30,820
[jackie]: Exactly.
523
00:22:30,933 –> 00:22:31,374
[Lori Taylor]: that’s
524
00:22:31,322 –> 00:22:32,226
[jackie]: So really, I’m
525
00:22:32,195 –> 00:22:32,295
[Lori Taylor]: one
526
00:22:32,246 –> 00:22:32,608
[jackie]: talking
527
00:22:32,315 –> 00:22:32,556
[Lori Taylor]: reason
528
00:22:32,648 –> 00:22:32,889
[jackie]: about.
529
00:22:33,096 –> 00:22:34,378
[Lori Taylor]: I’m so inspired by you.
530
00:22:35,042 –> 00:22:35,982
[jackie]: Thank you, Lori. I mean,
531
00:22:35,860 –> 00:22:36,080
[Lori Taylor]: Yeah.
532
00:22:36,142 –> 00:22:39,684
[jackie]: yeah, no, that’s the whole point is
to make it more about inclusion. What can you
533
00:22:39,724 –> 00:22:43,086
[jackie]: include more of? So if you’re, you
know, and I would say that the best way to
534
00:22:43,126 –> 00:22:46,008
[jackie]: think about that, if you’re listening
to this now and a little confused by that third
535
00:22:46,048 –> 00:22:49,910
[jackie]: point is what are your, what does,
what does the food that you like to consume?
536
00:22:50,030 –> 00:22:54,212
[jackie]: If it’s beef, if it’s seafood, if
it’s chicken, if it’s poultry, just make sure,
537
00:22:54,492 –> 00:22:58,134
[jackie]: make those conscious choices that
you’re looking for things that, that you would
538
00:22:58,174 –> 00:23:03,157
[jackie]: like to see in growing practices and
agricultural practices. Because ultimately
539
00:23:03,537 –> 00:23:07,040
[jackie]: that that matters when you’re looking
for an overall health promoting pattern of
540
00:23:07,060 –> 00:23:09,265
[jackie]: eating as well. Now, I wouldn’t say
that to the
541
00:23:09,221 –> 00:23:09,381
[Lori Taylor]: I’m
542
00:23:09,305 –> 00:23:10,928
[jackie]: exclusion.
543
00:23:09,401 –> 00:23:10,981
[Lori Taylor]: so glad you said this. You know
544
00:23:10,989 –> 00:23:11,289
[jackie]: Yeah.
545
00:23:11,021 –> 00:23:15,682
[Lori Taylor]: why? Because in our introductory,
like not the intro episode where I like, hey,
546
00:23:15,702 –> 00:23:16,783
[Lori Taylor]: we got a new theme, but our very
547
00:23:16,684 –> 00:23:16,894
[jackie]: Right.
548
00:23:16,803 –> 00:23:24,245
[Lori Taylor]: first guest episode was Baobab
fruit. I don’t know if you’re familiar with
549
00:23:24,305 –> 00:23:24,425
[Lori Taylor]: it.
550
00:23:24,869 –> 00:23:26,091
[jackie]: Oh yes, Baobab?
551
00:23:26,285 –> 00:23:27,646
[Lori Taylor]: Baobab, I need to
552
00:23:27,593 –> 00:23:27,653
[jackie]: I
553
00:23:27,666 –> 00:23:27,766
[Lori Taylor]: go
554
00:23:27,693 –> 00:23:27,853
[jackie]: don’t
555
00:23:27,806 –> 00:23:28,066
[Lori Taylor]: back
556
00:23:27,893 –> 00:23:28,094
[jackie]: know.
557
00:23:28,106 –> 00:23:29,226
[Lori Taylor]: to my notes and
558
00:23:29,936 –> 00:23:30,357
[jackie]: Yes,
559
00:23:30,066 –> 00:23:30,867
[Lori Taylor]: look up the phonetic
560
00:23:30,577 –> 00:23:30,918
[jackie]: someone
561
00:23:30,907 –> 00:23:31,247
[Lori Taylor]: spelling.
562
00:23:30,958 –> 00:23:32,800
[jackie]: correct us.
563
00:23:32,287 –> 00:23:33,907
[Lori Taylor]: The Western Africa fruit that
564
00:23:34,082 –> 00:23:34,463
[jackie]: Yes.
565
00:23:34,267 –> 00:23:36,288
[Lori Taylor]: made its debut when Rafiki,
566
00:23:36,165 –> 00:23:36,525
[jackie]: Yeah.
567
00:23:38,009 –> 00:23:41,674
[Lori Taylor]: put the red stripe on Simba Cub’s
head. OK,
568
00:23:40,850 –> 00:23:41,252
[jackie]: Yes.
569
00:23:42,294 –> 00:23:42,655
[Lori Taylor]: that’s where
570
00:23:42,538 –> 00:23:42,920
[jackie]: Correct.
571
00:23:42,695 –> 00:23:48,683
[Lori Taylor]: most people know it. But there’s
a lot of regenerative agriculture values for
572
00:23:48,743 –> 00:23:55,381
[Lori Taylor]: this fruit in particular. And
I like. And I never thought of prior to that
573
00:23:55,421 –> 00:24:01,183
[Lori Taylor]: episode, I never thought of superfoods
with the agriculture lens either.
574
00:24:01,229 –> 00:24:01,371
[jackie]: Mmm.
575
00:24:01,883 –> 00:24:02,324
[Lori Taylor]: Like, you
576
00:24:02,285 –> 00:24:02,528
[jackie]: Yeah.
577
00:24:02,344 –> 00:24:06,245
[Lori Taylor]: know, the values of agriculture
and, but that I’m glad that you said it because
578
00:24:06,265 –> 00:24:11,566
[Lori Taylor]: it kind of, kind of goes back
folks to what we discussed in the episode with
579
00:24:12,127 –> 00:24:15,308
[Lori Taylor]: Jeff from Tiga, which was just
a couple, you know, scroll back a couple weeks.
580
00:24:15,388 –> 00:24:15,628
[Lori Taylor]: But
581
00:24:17,282 –> 00:24:17,542
[jackie]: I will
582
00:24:17,468 –> 00:24:17,948
[Lori Taylor]: interesting.
583
00:24:17,562 –> 00:24:21,123
[jackie]: say Lori like I tend to be a bit of
a purist in this and I say I
584
00:24:21,238 –> 00:24:21,400
[Lori Taylor]: Yeah.
585
00:24:21,663 –> 00:24:25,384
[jackie]: that’s why I keep it limited when
I say that because as much as I’m interested
586
00:24:25,424 –> 00:24:31,006
[jackie]: in regenerative god I wish it wasn’t
so hard to say regenerative agriculture and
587
00:24:31,066 –> 00:24:34,607
[jackie]: it’s such an area of interest for
me it’s a passion of mine when I’m talking
588
00:24:34,627 –> 00:24:36,588
[jackie]: about the human health benefits
589
00:24:36,837 –> 00:24:38,993
[Lori Taylor]: Mm-hmm.
590
00:24:37,168 –> 00:24:39,509
[jackie]: I try to keep it as simple as possible
because
591
00:24:39,013 –> 00:24:39,456
[Lori Taylor]: You have to.
592
00:24:40,149 –> 00:24:44,883
[jackie]: you have to and also because I think
people are smart enough to realize that there
593
00:24:44,943 –> 00:24:49,585
[jackie]: are some things that we do and personal
choices that we make for our own personal,
594
00:24:49,645 –> 00:24:54,128
[jackie]: physical, and emotional, psychological
health and well-being and choices that we might
595
00:24:54,168 –> 00:24:59,151
[jackie]: make that have to do with the planet.
Those can be mutually exclusive, but they don’t
596
00:24:59,331 –> 00:25:02,993
[jackie]: have to be. And that’s the thing.
Like I don’t, I wouldn’t want to push someone
597
00:25:03,353 –> 00:25:07,856
[jackie]: to make a choice to consume a certain
type of food because simply because of its
598
00:25:08,076 –> 00:25:13,395
[jackie]: proposed benefits for the planet,
because we can always find sort of counterfactual
599
00:25:13,415 –> 00:25:15,116
[jackie]: to that. We can always find the
600
00:25:14,877 –> 00:25:15,301
[Lori Taylor]: Always.
601
00:25:15,196 –> 00:25:15,796
[jackie]: sort of like
602
00:25:15,563 –> 00:25:15,805
[Lori Taylor]: Yeah.
603
00:25:16,177 –> 00:25:16,637
[jackie]: antidote
604
00:25:16,511 –> 00:25:16,793
[Lori Taylor]: Always.
605
00:25:16,677 –> 00:25:21,460
[jackie]: to that. So I’m always careful to
do that, but I appreciate that point too, which
606
00:25:21,480 –> 00:25:26,124
[jackie]: is that like sometimes things may
have super benefits because they’re super for
607
00:25:26,184 –> 00:25:30,767
[jackie]: other things, but let’s be clear that
that’s not necessarily a
608
00:25:30,765 –> 00:25:31,205
[Lori Taylor]: That doesn’t
609
00:25:31,047 –> 00:25:31,467
[jackie]: talking
610
00:25:31,225 –> 00:25:31,886
[Lori Taylor]: necessarily,
611
00:25:31,507 –> 00:25:32,128
[jackie]: point for what
612
00:25:32,087 –> 00:25:32,347
[Lori Taylor]: yeah,
613
00:25:32,168 –> 00:25:32,828
[jackie]: it means for
614
00:25:32,788 –> 00:25:32,928
[Lori Taylor]: for
615
00:25:32,888 –> 00:25:33,168
[jackie]: human
616
00:25:32,968 –> 00:25:33,649
[Lori Taylor]: nutrition,
617
00:25:33,188 –> 00:25:33,489
[jackie]: health.
618
00:25:33,829 –> 00:25:34,150
[Lori Taylor]: yeah.
619
00:25:34,009 –> 00:25:35,510
[jackie]: Exactly.
620
00:25:34,871 –> 00:25:35,352
[Lori Taylor]: Right, OK.
621
00:25:36,151 –> 00:25:40,313
[jackie]: A lot of people in the nutrition marketing
space have been keen to do that recently.
622
00:25:41,065 –> 00:25:43,648
[Lori Taylor]: Well, you know, it’s the hot
it’s one of those hot new terms
623
00:25:43,838 –> 00:25:43,999
[jackie]: Yes,
624
00:25:43,848 –> 00:25:44,409
[Lori Taylor]: and food
625
00:25:44,240 –> 00:25:44,581
[jackie]: it is.
626
00:25:44,429 –> 00:25:48,934
[Lori Taylor]: marketing is regenerative agriculture
And as you and I both know, it’s just a matter
627
00:25:48,994 –> 00:25:54,441
[Lori Taylor]: of time before there’s going
to be a cheeto that is manufactured as a regeneratively
628
00:25:55,141 –> 00:25:56,363
[Lori Taylor]: sourced cheeto
629
00:25:56,246 –> 00:25:57,865
[jackie]: Yes, you’re so right.
630
00:25:58,037 –> 00:26:01,498
[Lori Taylor]: Yeah, I know I’m right. We’ve,
you and I’ve talked about it, and anyone who’s
631
00:26:01,538 –> 00:26:03,859
[Lori Taylor]: shopped in the grocery store
has seen this. I was at
632
00:26:03,885 –> 00:26:04,116
[jackie]: Yeah.
633
00:26:03,899 –> 00:26:09,202
[Lori Taylor]: the sales desk, folks, selling
fruits and vegetables when organic foods were
634
00:26:09,222 –> 00:26:14,884
[Lori Taylor]: on the rise. And we’re very much
like Jackie. We believe all fruits and vegetables
635
00:26:15,445 –> 00:26:19,607
[Lori Taylor]: are good for you. We’re totally
agnostic here at the Produce Moms as it relates
636
00:26:19,627 –> 00:26:24,409
[Lori Taylor]: to how those foods are, how those
fruits and vegetables are farmed or cultivated.
637
00:26:24,909 –> 00:26:30,272
[Lori Taylor]: Our job at the Produce Moms is
to help and the defined terms with each and
638
00:26:30,312 –> 00:26:34,515
[Lori Taylor]: every one of those farming styles.
And regenerative agriculture is another one
639
00:26:34,535 –> 00:26:42,440
[Lori Taylor]: of those terms where we don’t
have a comprehensive definition or even regulatory,
640
00:26:42,660 –> 00:26:43,581
[Lori Taylor]: you know, is still
641
00:26:43,582 –> 00:26:44,004
[jackie]: Anything.
642
00:26:43,621 –> 00:26:49,285
[Lori Taylor]: very gray as it relates to regenerative
ag, despite the fact that things like, you
643
00:26:49,305 –> 00:26:53,107
[Lori Taylor]: know, certifications are emerging
and we’re not dismissing the importance of
644
00:26:53,167 –> 00:26:56,450
[Lori Taylor]: it by any means. I mean, we’re
a certified B Corp at the Produce Moms. We
645
00:26:56,470 –> 00:26:56,850
[Lori Taylor]: believe
646
00:26:56,868 –> 00:26:57,193
[jackie]: Right.
647
00:26:56,890 –> 00:27:02,494
[Lori Taylor]: in… believe in environmental
responsibility, social responsibility, and
648
00:27:02,854 –> 00:27:07,958
[Lori Taylor]: regenerative agriculture touches
on both of those. But it is important to call,
649
00:27:08,578 –> 00:27:13,062
[Lori Taylor]: again, I’ve got my friend Jackie
- We’re here to poke holes in shit, folks.
650
00:27:13,102 –> 00:27:13,242
[Lori Taylor]: That’s
651
00:27:13,226 –> 00:27:13,286
[jackie]: I
652
00:27:13,262 –> 00:27:13,362
[Lori Taylor]: what
653
00:27:13,346 –> 00:27:13,507
[jackie]: love
654
00:27:13,402 –> 00:27:13,622
[Lori Taylor]: we do.
655
00:27:13,587 –> 00:27:18,362
[jackie]: it. We’re here to poke holes in shit.
If we could name this episode Malagory, I think
656
00:27:18,402 –> 00:27:18,844
[jackie]: that’s it.
657
00:27:21,254 –> 00:27:25,859
[Lori Taylor]: Okay, so Jackie, I’ve got one
question for you and I on purpose kind of embargoed
658
00:27:25,879 –> 00:27:30,123
[Lori Taylor]: this question after we’ve had
some fun discussing your passions and insights
659
00:27:30,223 –> 00:27:35,648
[Lori Taylor]: on this topic. But the question
that we’re asking all of our guests on this
660
00:27:35,708 –> 00:27:39,272
[Lori Taylor]: little mini series of superfoods
is how do you define superfoods?
661
00:27:41,990 –> 00:27:46,674
[jackie]: I define, I’m going to go with part
dictionary definition
662
00:27:47,160 –> 00:27:47,388
[Lori Taylor]: Okay.
663
00:27:47,194 –> 00:27:50,377
[jackie]: and part my own version of the dictionary
definition, right?
664
00:27:50,297 –> 00:27:50,507
[Lori Taylor]: Good.
665
00:27:50,717 –> 00:27:55,401
[jackie]: So real whole foods, I’m going to
start with that. So if you see superfood on
666
00:27:55,562 –> 00:28:00,206
[jackie]: anything that is, uh, I don’t want
to see it on a juice. Okay. Because you’re
667
00:28:00,226 –> 00:28:04,950
[jackie]: not chewing a juice. You’re not, you’re
not consuming nutrients in the same way. that
668
00:28:04,990 –> 00:28:08,351
[jackie]: you would a real whole food. Now there
are plenty of people in my industry that would
669
00:28:08,371 –> 00:28:12,414
[jackie]: disagree with me on that. That’s okay,
I’m happy to disagree on that. But what I’m
670
00:28:12,454 –> 00:28:16,916
[jackie]: looking at is the overall nutrient
quality and nutrient density of that product.
671
00:28:17,196 –> 00:28:21,539
[jackie]: Yes, juice can be great for certain
contexts and for some people and for it, depending
672
00:28:21,619 –> 00:28:25,861
[jackie]: on what your financial situation is,
it might be your only way to get veggies and
673
00:28:25,881 –> 00:28:30,063
[jackie]: fruit. I understand all of those things,
but for our purposes and for getting people
674
00:28:30,083 –> 00:28:35,571
[jackie]: to consume more real whole foods,
I’m gonna define it as as I see it, which is
675
00:28:35,692 –> 00:28:39,118
[jackie]: things that you actually chew. So
real wholesome foods that you actually chew
676
00:28:40,220 –> 00:28:45,369
[jackie]: that provide fiber, antioxidants,
essential fatty acids, period.
677
00:28:46,805 –> 00:28:47,919
[Lori Taylor]: Love it. We’ve.
678
00:28:47,842 –> 00:28:49,563
[jackie]: And I’m going to add one more thing,
Lori.
679
00:28:50,073 –> 00:28:50,621
[Lori Taylor]: Please!
680
00:28:50,364 –> 00:28:54,607
[jackie]: I’m also going to define it. I’m going
to repeat this like a broken record, but they’re
681
00:28:54,627 –> 00:28:59,891
[jackie]: foods that for you, that are ones
that you enjoy eating so that you consume them
682
00:28:59,931 –> 00:29:05,275
[jackie]: consistently and become a part of
an overall dietary pattern and therefore an
683
00:29:05,355 –> 00:29:08,537
[jackie]: overall context for you that make
it nutritious for you.
684
00:29:10,154 –> 00:29:10,755
[Lori Taylor]: Okay. Boom,
685
00:29:10,902 –> 00:29:11,205
[jackie]: period
686
00:29:10,996 –> 00:29:11,236
[Lori Taylor]: mic
687
00:29:11,246 –> 00:29:11,327
[jackie]: on
688
00:29:11,256 –> 00:29:11,677
[Lori Taylor]: drop.
689
00:29:11,367 –> 00:29:11,670
[jackie]: that one.
690
00:29:12,078 –> 00:29:14,662
[Lori Taylor]: All right, do we even need to
continue the series, folks? I
691
00:29:14,646 –> 00:29:15,191
[jackie]: We
692
00:29:14,702 –> 00:29:15,203
[Lori Taylor]: don’t know. Ha
693
00:29:15,211 –> 00:29:15,352
[jackie]: are.
694
00:29:15,223 –> 00:29:15,884
[Lori Taylor]: ha ha.
695
00:29:18,961 –> 00:29:19,881
[Lori Taylor]: Um, well, no,
696
00:29:19,842 –> 00:29:20,007
[jackie]: What’s
697
00:29:19,901 –> 00:29:20,061
[Lori Taylor]: this
698
00:29:20,090 –> 00:29:20,172
[jackie]: it?
699
00:29:20,121 –> 00:29:24,522
[Lori Taylor]: is, this has been a great discussion.
Um, I’ve enjoyed every minute of it. Jackie,
700
00:29:24,542 –> 00:29:28,003
[Lori Taylor]: before we, we close out today’s
show, I want to, I want to talk a little bit
701
00:29:28,043 –> 00:29:31,264
[Lori Taylor]: more about what’s ahead for you.
Make sure that everyone knows where they can
702
00:29:31,304 –> 00:29:34,885
[Lori Taylor]: connect with you. Um, you know,
tell them a little bit more about your podcast.
703
00:29:35,045 –> 00:29:39,106
[Lori Taylor]: I’m telling you folks, you will
be entertained. It’s kind of, it’s kind of
704
00:29:39,146 –> 00:29:43,187
[Lori Taylor]: like a edgier, more fun version
of the produce moms podcast in a way.
705
00:29:45,110 –> 00:29:48,532
[jackie]: Well, I have had great inspiration
from you, Lori. Yes.
706
00:29:48,357 –> 00:29:48,777
[Lori Taylor]: Ha ha!
707
00:29:48,612 –> 00:29:52,656
[jackie]: So definitely find me the business
of the podcast is called the business of wellness.
708
00:29:52,676 –> 00:29:56,739
[jackie]: You can find it wherever you listen,
of course. Um, and my main goal with it is
709
00:29:56,759 –> 00:30:02,443
[jackie]: to take deep dives into specific areas
of the wellness industry. Um, both from the
710
00:30:02,563 –> 00:30:07,668
[jackie]: standpoint of real wellness industry
experts, like myself, like other dietitians,
711
00:30:07,828 –> 00:30:12,759
[jackie]: practitioners, uh, physicians. and
also from the standpoint of business owners,
712
00:30:12,899 –> 00:30:16,821
[jackie]: real everyday business owners who
are looking for those, for that advice, for
713
00:30:16,841 –> 00:30:20,983
[jackie]: those solutions from practitioners.
So to kind of bring those two things together
714
00:30:21,404 –> 00:30:25,826
[jackie]: and have a real honest, frank conversation
about what wellness actually is and what it’s
715
00:30:25,886 –> 00:30:28,147
[jackie]: not, because there’s a lot of things
it’s not.
716
00:30:29,090 –> 00:30:29,357
[Lori Taylor]: Yeah.
717
00:30:29,388 –> 00:30:33,815
[jackie]: But I will leave that as the teaser.
Um, and you can check it out again. It’s called
718
00:30:33,835 –> 00:30:37,778
[jackie]: the business of wellness and, um,

[Lori Taylor]: I love that.
727
00:31:02,754 –> 00:31:03,748
[jackie]: on all social platforms.
728
00:31:04,266 –> 00:31:09,631
[Lori Taylor]: I love it. Well, and you know
what, Jackie? As we have had all these discussions
729
00:31:09,651 –> 00:31:12,093
[Lori Taylor]: with the Food as Medicine, and
I attended the Food as Medicine summit as a
730
00:31:12,153 –> 00:31:17,197
[Lori Taylor]: delegate, and that’s kind of
what started this whole, you know, now we’re
731
00:31:17,417 –> 00:31:21,040
[Lori Taylor]: two mini-series deep into kind
of a similar topic here. But
732
00:31:21,142 –> 00:31:21,449
[jackie]: Love it.
733
00:31:22,982 –> 00:31:27,306
[Lori Taylor]: I kind of feel like it’s the
registered dietician’s golden hour right now.
734
00:31:27,466 –> 00:31:28,026
[Lori Taylor]: Like, people are
735
00:31:28,022 –> 00:31:28,163
[jackie]: Oh,
736
00:31:28,106 –> 00:31:29,367
[Lori Taylor]: really realizing.
737
00:31:29,729 –> 00:31:31,135
[jackie]: happy to hear that. Hope that’s
738
00:31:31,122 –> 00:31:31,162
[Lori Taylor]: I
739
00:31:31,175 –> 00:31:31,416
[jackie]: true.
740
00:31:31,202 –> 00:31:37,065
[Lori Taylor]: do feel like people are recognizing
that. You know what? as much as we all love
741
00:31:37,085 –> 00:31:47,130
[Lori Taylor]: our doctors and need them, they
don’t have the capacity nor the education requirements
742
00:31:47,650 –> 00:31:48,831
[Lori Taylor]: to
743
00:31:47,668 –> 00:31:47,935
[jackie]: Yeah.
744
00:31:48,891 –> 00:31:55,814
[Lori Taylor]: really understand nutrition the
way that most patients and the broader consumer
745
00:31:56,554 –> 00:31:59,156
[Lori Taylor]: public population needs that
guidance on.
746
00:32:00,628 –> 00:32:01,076
[jackie]: So true.
747
00:32:05,479 –> 00:32:12,801
[Lori Taylor]: for patient care. And certainly
in the food industry, they’ve been a primary
748
00:32:12,841 –> 00:32:16,142
[Lori Taylor]: stakeholder in the food industry
for years. But I do think that there’s a heightened
749
00:32:16,182 –> 00:32:21,124
[Lori Taylor]: awareness from a downstream point
of view, like the household level point of
750
00:32:21,164 –> 00:32:21,444
[Lori Taylor]: view.
751
00:32:21,388 –> 00:32:22,590
[jackie]: I love to hear that. That
752
00:32:22,484 –> 00:32:22,784
[Lori Taylor]: Yeah.
753
00:32:22,630 –> 00:32:26,617
[jackie]: makes me so happy. Because we weren’t,
let me tell you, myself and others, we worry
754
00:32:26,637 –> 00:32:27,679
[jackie]: about this a lot because
755
00:32:28,045 –> 00:32:28,390
[Lori Taylor]: Mm-hmm.
756
00:32:28,059 –> 00:32:32,607
[jackie]: we have, we’re up against quite a
mountain in Washington of lobbying.
757
00:32:32,981 –> 00:32:38,044
[Lori Taylor]: Well, not only that, but you’ve
got people who are nutrition aficionados,
758
00:32:37,982 –> 00:32:38,728
[jackie]: Yes,
759
00:32:38,264 –> 00:32:38,784
[Lori Taylor]: who
760
00:32:39,212 –> 00:32:39,676
[jackie]: yes.
761
00:32:39,765 –> 00:32:41,366
[Lori Taylor]: with the gift of
762
00:32:42,015 –> 00:32:42,563
[jackie]: Exactly.
763
00:32:42,627 –> 00:32:45,849
[Lori Taylor]: content creation and digital
media, anyone
764
00:32:45,868 –> 00:32:46,158
[jackie]: Right.
765
00:32:46,269 –> 00:32:50,071
[Lori Taylor]: can portray themselves as a voice
of authority and an expert.
766
00:32:50,722 –> 00:32:51,222
[jackie]: So true.
767
00:32:51,572 –> 00:32:51,832
[Lori Taylor]: Yeah.
768
00:32:51,702 –> 00:32:56,025
[jackie]: So true. Yeah. Know what? Really?
It does require kind of like beating that drum
769
00:32:56,065 –> 00:33:00,768
[jackie]: of saying over and over again. The
only nutrition advice to take is one from someone
770
00:33:00,788 –> 00:33:02,809
[jackie]: with an RD after their name. Really.
771
00:33:02,697 –> 00:33:07,098
[Lori Taylor]: I completely agree. I actually
scheduled, I don’t know if you’re gonna love
772
00:33:07,139 –> 00:33:08,799
[Lori Taylor]: me or hate me when I say this
out loud,
773
00:33:09,378 –> 00:33:09,525
[jackie]: Bye!
774
00:33:09,460 –> 00:33:15,522
[Lori Taylor]: I scheduled my very first, like
just, I’ve never had a user experience with,
775
00:33:15,562 –> 00:33:15,943
[jackie]: Yeah.
776
00:33:15,602 –> 00:33:17,183
[Lori Taylor]: or a patient experience with
an RD.
777
00:33:17,929 –> 00:33:18,110
[jackie]: Oh,
778
00:33:17,983 –> 00:33:18,243
[Lori Taylor]: How many
779
00:33:18,150 –> 00:33:18,290
[jackie]: I
780
00:33:18,283 –> 00:33:18,443
[Lori Taylor]: times
781
00:33:18,310 –> 00:33:18,531
[jackie]: love
782
00:33:18,484 –> 00:33:18,584
[Lori Taylor]: have
783
00:33:18,571 –> 00:33:18,832
[jackie]: that,
784
00:33:18,604 –> 00:33:18,904
[Lori Taylor]: I talked
785
00:33:18,892 –> 00:33:19,353
[jackie]: Lori.
786
00:33:18,924 –> 00:33:19,784

00:33:24,258 –> 00:33:24,531
[jackie]: Yeah.

00:33:24,366 –> 00:33:28,428
[Lori Taylor]: at a minimum monthly, have plenty
who are dear friends. And,
791
00:33:28,087 –> 00:33:28,297
[jackie]: Right.

00:33:29,921 –> 00:33:32,862

[jackie]: amazing.
795
00:33:33,702 –> 00:33:36,904
[Lori Taylor]: and she was part of the Food
is Medicine series and she was talking about
796
00:33:37,324 –> 00:33:43,447
[Lori Taylor]: how the Kroger dietitians are
available through Kroger Health and their telehealth.
797
00:33:43,927 –> 00:33:44,027
[Lori Taylor]: And I
798
00:33:44,016 –> 00:33:44,237
[jackie]: Yeah.
799
00:33:44,047 –> 00:33:46,928
[Lori Taylor]: was like, you know what, I need
to schedule that. Like I have no
800
00:33:46,859 –> 00:33:47,246
[jackie]: Yes.
801
00:33:47,029 –> 00:33:51,471
[Lori Taylor]: idea what that even, what that
user experience is or that patient care, patient
802
00:33:51,671 –> 00:33:53,051
[Lori Taylor]: RD interface looks
803
00:33:52,895 –> 00:33:53,057
[jackie]: Love
804
00:33:53,091 –> 00:33:53,452
[Lori Taylor]: like.
805
00:33:53,098 –> 00:33:53,301
[jackie]: that.
806
00:33:53,932 –> 00:33:56,273
[Lori Taylor]: So I just had my first like exploratory
807
00:33:56,960 –> 00:33:57,313
[jackie]: Yeah.
808
00:33:59,935 –> 00:34:01,215
[Lori Taylor]: lot and you know who I really
809
00:34:01,215 –> 00:34:01,419
[jackie]: Yeah.
810
00:34:01,235 –> 00:34:05,558
[Lori Taylor]: want to get engaged with this
is my both of my children but especially my
811
00:34:05,638 –> 00:34:07,279
[Lori Taylor]: older one who’s now a high school
athlete
812
00:34:08,846 –> 00:34:09,706
[jackie]: So helpful
813
00:34:09,980 –> 00:34:10,240
[Lori Taylor]: yeah
814
00:34:10,107 –> 00:34:13,810
[jackie]: and so necessary. No, I love that
you said that, Laurie, because I think that’s
815
00:34:13,830 –> 00:34:17,113
[jackie]: another, especially for your listeners,
like that’s another important thing to know,
816
00:34:17,193 –> 00:34:21,537
[jackie]: is that just because you have worked
with us does not necessarily mean that you’ve
817
00:34:21,577 –> 00:34:25,081
[jackie]: had the user experience. And I actually
think the user experience is way more valuable
818
00:34:25,121 –> 00:34:28,404
[jackie]: sometimes, just to know what it’s
like and to understand what it’s like to be
819
00:34:28,444 –> 00:34:29,945
[jackie]: in that one-on-one context.
820
00:34:30,441 –> 00:34:36,044
[Lori Taylor]: Yeah, and it was really flawless
and super affordable. And
821
00:34:36,823 –> 00:34:37,236
[jackie]: Love that.
822
00:34:37,445 –> 00:34:42,068
[Lori Taylor]: I highly recommend it, you know,
because I feel like I also have a pretty good
823
00:34:42,128 –> 00:34:48,653
[Lori Taylor]: pulse on all things nutrition.
I feel like I have a heightened awareness and
824
00:34:48,713 –> 00:34:49,273
[Lori Taylor]: understanding
825
00:34:49,058 –> 00:34:49,310
[jackie]: Yeah.
826
00:34:49,313 –> 00:34:55,365
[Lori Taylor]: of nutrition compared to most
consumers because of my line of work. But I
827
00:34:55,405 –> 00:34:57,406
[Lori Taylor]: had a lot to learn, you know?
And it’s still
828
00:34:57,334 –> 00:34:57,565
[jackie]: Yeah.
829
00:34:57,446 –> 00:35:02,268
[Lori Taylor]: hard to navigate. Not so much
for me. I wasn’t there to navigate fruit and
830
00:35:02,288 –> 00:35:09,011
[Lori Taylor]: vegetable stuff, but more like,
OK, do I need a Clif Bar in my house? Or what’s
831
00:35:09,071 –> 00:35:09,411
[Lori Taylor]: the good
832
00:35:09,194 –> 00:35:09,536
[jackie]: Right,
833
00:35:09,451 –> 00:35:10,032
[Lori Taylor]: grab and go
834
00:35:09,938 –> 00:35:10,340
[jackie]: yeah,
835
00:35:10,072 –> 00:35:12,373
[Lori Taylor]: pantry staple for
836
00:35:11,747 –> 00:35:12,129
[jackie]: right.
837
00:35:12,773 –> 00:35:15,414
[Lori Taylor]: where I’m at with my metabolic
age and my
838
00:35:16,724 –> 00:35:16,928
[jackie]: Yeah.
839
00:35:17,235 –> 00:35:22,317
[Lori Taylor]: goals as it relates to personal
wellness and nutrition? I love how Clif Bars
840
00:35:22,357 –> 00:35:25,944
[Lori Taylor]: taste, but I’m not rock climbing.
I’m so sorry.
841
00:35:30,699 –> 00:35:30,839
[jackie]: Right?
842
00:35:30,813 –> 00:35:31,173
[Lori Taylor]: Yeah,
843
00:35:30,879 –> 00:35:32,121
[jackie]: Such a great point. Yeah,
844
00:35:31,954 –> 00:35:32,475
[Lori Taylor]: yeah.
845
00:35:32,281 –> 00:35:34,285
[jackie]: no, it’s true. It’s really such a
good point.
846
00:35:34,639 –> 00:35:40,098
[Lori Taylor]: So I do feel like and so please
folks, if you haven’t. If you haven’t heightened
847
00:35:40,118 –> 00:35:44,082
[Lori Taylor]: your appreciation or even your
awareness for what registered dietitians offer
848
00:35:44,122 –> 00:35:50,167
[Lori Taylor]: to us all through the healthcare
space or even just the consumer media space,
849
00:35:50,187 –> 00:35:53,330
[Lori Taylor]: which that’s how I’d kind of
categorize you Jackie. A lot of what you’re
850
00:35:53,350 –> 00:35:59,396
[Lori Taylor]: doing is just amazing free knowledge
that you’re sharing with folks on your social
851
00:35:59,416 –> 00:36:00,116
[Lori Taylor]: platforms.
852
00:35:59,926 –> 00:36:00,933
[jackie]: Great, thank you.
853
00:36:01,477 –> 00:36:04,300
[Lori Taylor]: So please engage and check it
out.
854
00:36:05,354 –> 00:36:09,005
[jackie]: Yeah, definitely come and find me.
Jacqueline London RD, everywhere.
855
00:36:08,741 –> 00:36:13,366
[Lori Taylor]: All right, well, one final one
final mic drop. I’m going to send the mic to
856
00:36:13,406 –> 00:36:16,489
[Lori Taylor]: you. Anything you want people
to really remember and take home from this
857
00:36:16,529 –> 00:36:18,351
[Lori Taylor]: episode as we close things out
today?
858
00:36:19,026 –> 00:36:22,250
[jackie]: Yes, I’m going to repeat my line for
the 80th time, but
859
00:36:22,202 –> 00:36:22,475
[Lori Taylor]: Good.
860
00:36:22,370 –> 00:36:26,896
[jackie]: I feel like it’s one that bears repeating
any food that is nutritious for you is only
861
00:36:27,096 –> 00:36:32,023
[jackie]: as super for you as the context and
consistency in which it’s consumed. That’s
862
00:36:32,083 –> 00:36:32,143
[jackie]: all.
863
00:36:33,601 –> 00:36:39,406
[Lori Taylor]: Boom. All right. Well thank you
Jackie for being here folks. Thanks for tuning
864
00:36:39,486 –> 00:36:43,049
[Lori Taylor]: in. You know the drill. We need
ratings reviews to keep this thing going. Do
865
00:36:43,069 –> 00:36:46,572
[Lori Taylor]: them or don’t do them. I’ll still
be back next week. All right.
866
00:36:52,302 –> 00:36:52,896
[jackie]: I love it.
867
00:36:54,113 –> 00:36:54,796
[Lori Taylor]: Don’t hang up.
