TWG 249: Are Energy bars and cereals healthy?

food marketing and food labelling make it so hard to understand what is truely healthy. people say avoid packaged foods… but lets face it… not all packaged foods are bad for you nor will they all kill you!!! BUT they aren’t all created equal! Energy Balls, Energy Bars, Gluten Free, Nut free etc all make food sound good for you and relatively beneficial… but what Laurence and Damian identify and reveal… is potentially much further from the truth!

TWG 243: Extreme Health

This week Laurence and Brett actually discuss a topic suggested by Damian but in Damian’s absence. The topic of extremes. Are people going too extreme in their search for health and wellness? Is there a tipping point where this actually becomes detrimental to their health? Is there ever a time where going to the extreme can actually be beneficial? Is it good to surround yourself with extreme people who push you out of your comfort zone or is this causing people to lose their sense of self? All these questions and more covered in one very interesting episode of The Wellness Guys Show!
