In today's episode, Kate and Emma talk about food additives like gums, oils, stabilizers, and emulsifiers! We touch on why these ingredients are used in food products and which ones you actually should avoid. We get into the fearmongering in the wellness industry about processed foods — speaking on which fears are well warranted and which are not worth it to worry about — and finish off with how to shop smart as a consumer.
