This Week in Wellworthy: The Nutrition Gap: Why Our Food System Is Out of Sync With What People Need
There is a growing gap between what people want from their food and what the food industry continues to produce.

Yet the industry is moving in the opposite direction, investing in more processed options, engineered alternatives, and quiet reformulations.
In this week’s Wellworthy session, we explore why this disconnect exists, how it affects people living with chronic illness, and what you can do to navigate the system without burnout or unrealistic pressure. You do not need to fix the food system. Awareness and small, supportive choices are enough.This Week in Wellworthy: Why People Are Asking if PCOS Is Autoimmune and Endometriosis Is Cancer
