We’re bringing back a favorite—nutrition headlines! And this version just might be our best! In today’s episode, we are sharing four new nutrition studies. There’s new research on bright light treatment and using it for more than just seasonal depression. Are night owls smarter than early risers? Or is being a “morning lark” better? You might not be to blame for your kids’ fussy eating tendencies. And does having a sweet tooth predispose you to some health conditions?

The best (and cheapest) therapy for those small things that get under your skin is sometimes a good venting session so you can get it off your chest and move on with your life! And if you’re not privy to the first-hand vent-a-thon, then being a fly on the wall listening is hopefully equally therapeutic and also maybe entertaining.

Welcome to Rant Therapy, a podcast short powered by the hosts of the Happy Eating podcast, Brierley Horton and Carolyn Williams, where we periodically share our real-life venting sessions with each other—AKA what we’re “so over”.

Alkaline water’s popularity just won’t quit. Sales have grown every year since 2013. But do great sales mean that it’s worth drinking—and are the so-called benefits of alkaline water like preventing cancer, promoting weight loss or improving bone density legit? That’s what we break down in this very first episode of “waste of money or worth it”?

Sources for this episode include:
