As the holidays wrap up and the new year approaches, Claudia and Denny take a refreshing—and realistic—approach to January health goals. In this episode, they explain why New Year’s resolutions fail and why a gentle reset is a far better path to lasting health.
The conversation begins with a powerful new study published in The Lancet linking ultra-processed foods to damage in every major organ of the body. Claudia breaks down why this doesn’t surprise her, how the modern food system is failing people, and what simple food choices can dramatically change your health trajectory.
Instead of extreme cleanses or all-or-nothing thinking, this episode focuses on baby-step changes that actually stick—starting with what you eat, drink, and how you support your gut.
In This Episode, You’ll Learn:
Why ultra-processed foods are harming human health

The difference between “resolutions” and a true health reset

How to rebuild health after the holidays without deprivation

Why gut health is the foundation of energy, weight, and immunity

The importance of probiotics, minerals, and clean water

How blood type can guide smarter food choices

Why food quality matters more than food trends

How to prioritize health without overwhelm or guilt

Practical Reset Tips Discussed:
Focus on whole, real foods instead of packaged convenience foods

Start with probiotics, a quality multivitamin, and vitamin D3 + K2

Drink more clean, mineral-rich water

Reduce sugar and ultra-processed foods gradually

Move your body daily—even short walks matter

Make sustainable changes instead of drastic restrictions

Claudia also shares why supporting local farmers, simplifying meals, and reconnecting with real food can be one of the most powerful acts of self-care—and even peaceful protest—in today’s world.
This episode is perfect for anyone who wants to feel better in the new year without falling into the same resolution cycle.
