How to take action after listening to this episode:

Check out a label of a product you use regularly and see what you think about it with your new knowledge! If it isn't optimal, do your best to find another one next time you hit the grocery store! And for a bonus, post pictures of the label comparison on Instagram and tag me, or send me a DM!
