Why Is There Sugar in Salt?
Recently, I was talking with a friend who doesn't eat sugar or flour and weighs and measures her food. I was traveling in New York City at the time and on the hunt for some salt for my meal while we were on the phone. She told me that she doesn't use single-serving packets of salt, and her reasoning absolutely floored me. Listen to this week's episode to hear all about it.

Flux
A little while ago, I recorded an episode about Ari Whitten's amazing new book, Eat For Energy. As part of the release festivities, I interviewed Ari for about an hour and we put out a link to the interview for anyone who bought the book. I asked him a question during our interview that is incredibly important for the BLE community, and his answer was so helpful that I knew I'd eventually discuss it in a podcast episode. Listen to hear my thoughts.
