The Bean Talk – Episode 24: "Food is Medicine" is it enough?
This week, Riannon and Jeremy dive into the age-old question: can food alone really give your body everything it needs? From mineral-depleted soils and early harvesting to stress and modern-day nutrient gaps, they explore why even the most balanced diets often fall short in today's world.
They unpack the key reasons so many people, even the health-conscious, end up with low iron, magnesium, vitamin D and more, and share how to build a realistic, supportive approach to nutrition using food and supplements.
Whether you're in preconception, postpartum, or just wanting more energy, this episode will help you understand where food fits in and when it's time to go deeper.
