Episode 11: Artificial Sweeteners, Sugars, and Preservatives: Oh My!

Kate and Emma talk about the growth of their wellness meme empire while they dispel myths around sugars and sweeteners. In this episode, we get into all of the artificial sweeteners you’ve come across on gum packets, various candies, and within diet food. We talk about the health risks of consuming artificial sweeteners, plus a mini history lesson on where these intense sugar substitutes originated from. Kate and Emma speak about their experience being marketed “low-calorie” alternatives from the diet industry and how these products shaped their relationship to health + wellness now.  Kate Glavan -- instagram.com/kateglavan/ Emma Roepke -- instagram.com/emma.roepke/ Sea Moss Girlies -- instagram.com/seamossgirlies/ Sea Moss Girlies on Patreon -- https://www.patreon.com/seamossgirlies Sea Moss Life Community Platform on Geneva https://links.genevachat.com/invite/03fa1998-a28f-4cc1-8bae-95dec9ecf0e6 --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/wtf-is-sea-moss/support Learn more about your ad choices.
