Join Dr. Chuck Dinerstein and Cam English on the Science Dispatch podcast as they discuss:
The terms “synthetic” and “ultra-processed” are widely (and opportunistically) used as warning labels and marketing strategies.

The body responds to molecules and nutrients, not to whether they came from a factory, a farm, a kitchen, or a pinball arcade.
