GET 👏 GOOD 👏 SALT 🧂

“But Dr. Mike, salt is bad for you 😩”
“Salt raises your blood pressure 😩”
“I thought I was supposed to cut out salt 😩”
“Isn’t sodium terrible for you? 😩”

WRONG ❌

The conversation around salt needs a little more nuance.

Sodium is actually an essential mineral. Your body needs it for fluid balance, nerve signalling and normal muscle contraction. 🧠💪

The problem? Too much sodium, especially when your diet is packed with highly processed foods, can absolutely contribute to higher blood pressure and cardiovascular risk. Switching salts does NOT magically make excessive sodium intake harmless.

But when we’re choosing salt in our kitchen, QUALITY MATTERS 👏

Take Maldon Sea Salt 🧂

🌊 Made from seawater
🇬🇧 Hand-harvested in Maldon, England
🧂 100% sea salt flakes with no additional ingredients listed
🔺 Naturally forms those iconic pyramid-shaped crystals
🔥 Produced using traditional salt-making methods dating back to 1882

And yes, sea salt can naturally retain trace amounts of minerals such as magnesium, potassium, calcium and iron. But TRACE is the important word. You’re not using sea salt as your magnesium supplement. 😉

So no, the message isn’t:

“Eat unlimited salt because sea salt is healthy.”

It’s:

GET 👏 GOOD 👏 SALT.

Choose simple ingredients. Season intentionally. Stop getting most of your sodium from ultra-processed food.

Your salt should make your food taste better, not need a chemistry lesson to read the ingredient list. 🧂👏

🚨 SAME FIBRE. VERY DIFFERENT INGREDIENTS.

These Fibre One bars contain canola oil, yet there’s no front-of-package Health Canada warning.

Meanwhile, these Kirkland bars have roughly the same amount of fibre, contain no seed oils, yet THEY carry a Health Canada “high in” symbol.

Why? 👀

Because that symbol isn’t grading the overall quality of the food. It specifically flags certain levels of saturated fat, sugar and sodium.

And that’s exactly why reading the front of the package ISN’T ENOUGH. 🔍

Turn it over.

READ THE INGREDIENTS.

Look at the oils being used.
Look at the added sugars.
Look at how processed the product is.
Look at the ingredient list as a WHOLE.

A warning symbol can give you one piece of information, but it doesn’t tell you the whole story about what you’re eating.

🥑 Prioritize whole-food fat sources.
🌱 Be mindful of heavily processed foods and excessive omega-6 intake.
🔍 Read beyond the marketing.
🧠 Make informed choices.

The front label catches your attention.
The ingredient list tells you what’s actually inside.

I see you Health Canada 🫵!

SOUR KEYS HAVE TURMERIC?! 🤯🔑

Back in the day, who was checking the ingredient list on sour keys at the candy shop?! 😂 Not even I was doing that.

Fast-forward to now and I’m actually half impressed by what I found 👀✨ Turmeric AND spirulina?!

BUT… that doesn’t mean I’m giving 22g of added sugar a free pass just because you sweetened the deal with a little turmeric and spirulina 😂

ENTER: TRUE DATES 🌴🔥

Here’s where it gets interesting…

⚠️ Same Health Canada warning on both packages.
🍭 One gets its sweetness largely from added sugar.
🌴 The other starts with DATES, a whole fruit naturally containing sugar along with fibre and nutrients.

SAME WARNING ≠ SAME FOOD.

Sugar content on a label doesn’t tell you the entire story. The SOURCE and the rest of the food matrix matter too. 👏🏼

So when I want something chewy, sweet and candy-like?

🌴 I’LL PICK THE DATES ALL DAY.

What was your favourite retro snack 🍭?

🚨 DR. MIKE’S HIDDEN FREEZIE HACK 🚨

You know the classic Freezies 🌈? Blue. Red. Orange. Purple. The colours kids immediately reach for.

But flip that package over 👀.

Those bright colours can come from artificial food dyes, and certain synthetic dyes have raised concerns around behavioural effects in some children 🧠⚠️.

DR. MIKE’S HACK? GRAB THE WHITE ONE!

The white/clear Freezie might be the most overlooked flavour in the pack… but it’s the sleeper pick 👏🏼.

❌ NO BRIGHT ARTIFICIAL COLOUR
❌ NO NEED FOR THE NEON DYES
✅ SAME FROZEN SUMMER TREAT

Sometimes the better choice has been hiding in the bag the WHOLE TIME 🤯🧊.

Next time the Freezies come out… you know which one Dr. Mike is grabbing 👀🍦.

PLOT TWIST: THE BETTER OLIVE OIL MIGHT ACTUALLY BE THE ONE IN PLASTIC 🤯🫒

We’ve been trained to think GLASS = QUALITY.

But Dr. Mike started checking what’s actually INSIDE the bottle 👀.

Some of those beautiful glass bottles contain olive oil sourced from MULTIPLE COUNTRIES 🌍. Olives harvested from different regions, blended together, transported long distances and bottled with limited traceability.

That fancy glass bottle suddenly doesn’t tell you much about the oil inside.

Meanwhile, Dr. Mike found SINGLE-ORIGIN olive oils with clearer sourcing and better traceability… and some of them come in PLASTIC 😳.

Is plastic our ideal vessel? NO ❌.

But if the choice is:

🫒 Single-origin
📍 Traceable source
🌿 Higher-quality oil
❌ Plastic bottle

VS.

🌍 Multi-country blend
❓ Less traceability
🫒 Questionable freshness
✨ Pretty glass bottle

We’re choosing the BETTER OIL.

Because a premium-looking bottle doesn’t automatically mean a premium product.

READ THE ORIGIN. NOT JUST THE PACKAGING. 👀🫒

Would you choose better olive oil in plastic over questionable olive oil in glass? 👇

Remember when saltines were… just crackers?! 😳🧂

The classic “upset stomach” food used to be SIMPLE ✨ Now flip over some of those old-school boxes and suddenly you’re reading ingredients like shortening, palm oil, additives and a whole lot of things you definitely weren’t expecting in a cracker 🫠.

And we’re eating THIS to settle our stomach?! Make it make sense 😂.

🌱 THE SWAP: Mary’s crackers 🌱.
Organic ingredients. Simple ingredients. Ingredients you can actually pronounce 🙌.

When your stomach is already feeling sensitive, the last thing you want is to pile on a bunch of unnecessary extras 🤢.

👏 READ. YOUR. LABELS 👏.
Your grandma’s saltines aren’t necessarily your saltines anymore 👀.

LESS JUNK. BETTER INGREDIENTS. HAPPY TUMMY 🌿✨.

🚨 Olive Garden… we need to talk 🤌🇮🇹

This bottle is called “Signature Italian Dressing” 🫒🇮🇹

So naturally… you’d expect olive oil to be one of the main ingredients 🤔

Instead, the SECOND ingredient is SOYBEAN OIL 😳🌱

A product marketed around Italian tradition should be built on the ingredient that made Mediterranean cuisine famous 🫒❤️

Instead you’re getting:
🥗 Soybean oil as a primary fat
🧪 Highly processed ingredients
🧂 Added sugars and preservatives
🚫 Very little of what most people associate with authentic Italian cooking

👀 Moral of the story:
The front label is marketing.
The ingredient list is reality 📖✅
Dr. Mike’s Italian 🇮🇹

Would Nonna approve 🤔👇🇮🇹?

🚨 DR. MIKE WAS WRONG… AT COSTCO?! 👀😂

We walked into Costco ready to expose another “healthy” snack loaded with canola oil… and then this happened. 🤯

For once, we found a product made with Extra Virgin Olive Oil instead. 🌿👏

Dr. Mike had to admit he was wrong, made a scene in the aisle, and even convinced another Costco shopper to grab a bag. 😂🛒

💡 Moral of the story:
Never buy based on the package. ALWAYS flip it over and read the ingredients.

You might be shocked by how many products marketed as “healthy” are made with highly refined oils and unnecessary additives… and you might also be pleasantly surprised when you find brands that actually get it right.

🏆 Read the label.
🏆 Choose better ingredients.
🏆 Your body will thank you.

Sometimes the best Costco finds are the ones you weren’t expecting. 👀
