Is coffee mold actually making you sick?18 Mar 202600:12:24

856. According to the internet, your morning brew might be hiding "mold toxins" that cause brain fog, fatigue, and digestive issues. But is mold-free coffee a bona fide health breakthrough, or just a clever marketing play?

This week, Monica takes a closer look at the science of mycotoxins in coffee, specifically Ochratoxin A (OTA). We separate food safety facts from "wellness guru" fiction to find out if standard coffee beans are actually undermining your health.

  • What Mycotoxins Are: Understanding the difference between visible mold and chemical compounds like Aflatoxin and Ochratoxin A.
  • The Roasting Defense: Why the roasting process is your best protection against toxins and why "green coffee" products carry different risks.
  • Hazard vs. Risk: A crucial distinction in food safety—is the presence of a toxin the same thing as a threat to your health?
  • Practical Prevention: 4 simple steps to minimize exposure—from checking "roasted on" dates to proper home storage—without paying a premium for specialty brands.
  • The Big Picture: How coffee compares to tea, herbal infusions, and cocoa when it comes to OTA levels.

Turning down the food noise, with Dr. Nina Crowley27 Mar 202400:30:38

In today's episode, we're exploring the phenomenon of “food noise,”  how it relates to our overall health and weight management, and some ways to turn down the volume.

Dr. Nina Crowley is a registered dietitian as well as a doctor of psychology–affectionately known to her friends and colleagues as the “Psycho-dietitian.“  Nina has years of experience working in the field of bariatrics and as an educator and advocate against weight stigma and bias–much of which is rooted in mistaken beliefs and erroneous thinking about the nature of this disease. 

Some of the topics included in our discussion:

  • Four dimensions that distinguish “food noise” from run-of-the-mill cravings
  • How this phenomenon is experienced by people living with overweight and obesity
  • The impact of weight loss medications on food noise
  • Biological mechanisms of GLP-1 agonists, including their effects on gut hormones and brain regions related to reward and motivation.
  • Stigma and misconceptions associated with obesity and the use of medications.
  • How even a short break from persistent, intrusive thoughts opens a window of opportunity for more lasting change
  • The role of behavioral and nutrition support in the medical treatment of obesity
  • Behavioral strategies for managing food noise
