This episode is brought to you by Rupa Health and Vuori.\nEating ultra-processed foods\u2014made primarily from wheat, corn, and soy\u2014increases your death rate by 75 percent. How\u2019s that for a sobering statistic! Unfortunately, American grocery-store shelves are monopolized by foods that contain ingredients that you should never eat, like partially hydrogenated oils, high fructose corn syrup, artificial sweeteners, and more. These foods have been scientifically proven to cause disease and death, so why do we still keep reaching for them?\nIn this episode of my Masterclass series, I am interviewed by my good friend and podcast host Dhru Purohit about foods that you should never eat again, foods to limit, and the food industry\u2019s role in why these foods are so pervasive in our supermarkets.\nDhru Purohit is a podcast host, serial entrepreneur, and investor in the health and wellness industry.
