313. How Processed Foods Changed: The Truth About Ingredients, Food Labels & Gut Health

In this episode of the Rest, Eat, Move podcast, Matt and his Chris dive into the evolution of processed food and why reading ingredient labels matters more than obsessing over calories or macros. Using examples like Wonder Bread, Gatorade, peanut butter, McDonald’s fries, and breakfast cereals, they explain how modern food manufacturing prioritizes shelf life, flavor engineering, and marketing over ingredient quality. The conversation explores topics like artificial additives, dyes, seed oils, “natural flavors,” gut health, lectins, food marketing, and the importance of choosing simpler, minimally processed foods whenever possible. Their core message is straightforward: “less is best” when it comes to ingredients, and consumers can improve their health by becoming more aware of what’s actually in packaged foods. #WellnessPodcast #NutritionPodcast #HealthyLifestyle #GutHealth #CleanEating https://ontargetliving.com/?srsltid=AfmBOooYR_CL_hEh8bu7mIk8Zbn-v7LifXry-bsMi0SnkgS2oYyI4aIL

312. The Science of Recovery: Breathwork, Sleep, Stress & Nervous System Health

This episode explores the hidden impact of chronic stress, mental exhaustion, and poor recovery habits in modern life. The speaker explains how constant stimulation from phones, information overload, and lack of intentional rest are keeping people trapped in “fight or flight” mode, affecting sleep, digestion, anxiety, focus, and long-term health. Through practical tools like breathwork, sleep planning, micro-breaks, movement, magnesium-rich nutrition, and reclaiming personal “space,” the episode emphasizes that recovery is not a luxury but a daily practice. The core message is that stress is often less about external circumstances and more about how we react—and that small, consistent habits can dramatically improve mental clarity, emotional regulation, and overall well-being. #WellnessPodcast #StressManagement #SleepHealth #MindsetShift #HealthyHabits https://ontargetliving.com

By prioritizing whole, minimally processed foods, trusting common sense, and avoiding extremes, listeners are encouraged to build a balanced lifestyle. The core message highlights the power of the 80/20 rule—eating well most of the time while still enjoying life—along with small, consistent habits that support long-term health, energy, and happiness. #HealthPodcast #NutritionTalk #WellnessTips #HealthyLiving #MindBodyHealth https://ontargetliving.com

310. Know Your Numbers, Fix Your Health

This special episode of the Rest Eat Move Podcast, recorded at On Target Living's 2026 Live Seminar in East Lansing, features Chris Johnson sharing a holistic approach to health by emphasizing how to listen to your body instead of simply masking symptoms. Through a personal injury story and practical examples, the speaker breaks down how everyday signals—like digestion, pain, and the “BULLS” framework (bowel, urine, lungs, lymph, skin)—can reveal deeper imbalances. The conversation highlights the importance of gut health, nutrition (especially omega-3s), quality sleep, breathing, and movement, while also challenging common beliefs around cholesterol, statins, and chronic conditions like Type 2 Diabetes. Overall, the episode encourages listeners to know their numbers, ask better questions in healthcare, and shift from reactive treatment to proactive prevention. https://ontargetliving.com #HealthPodcast #WellnessJourney #HolisticHealth #Nutrition #SelfImprovement
