About this listen

The orthodox wellness industry keeps you in purgatory with vague, overly simplistic advice or plunges you into the depths of hell with restrictive commandments that are impossible to sustain. At this point you may be tempted to pursue hedonism instead, but at the end of the day you want to feel and age your best and you know a devil-may-care attitude won’t serve you.


ITS TIME TO LEAVE THE CHURCH OF WELLNESS AND GO TO HEALTH.


Double-degreed functional nutritionist and holistic health coach Aimee shares over 20 years of clinical experience and emerging research on the impact of lifestyle on our healthspan, offering a holy marriage of practical street smarts and relevant data that will empower you to take action.


She’s not just another preachy face looking to sell you on the latest superfood or baptize you into the latest health cult; she’s on a mission to give you balanced, nuanced, honest information to help you make informed, grounded decisions about how to achieve your health goals, whether you aim to lose weight, manage blood sugar, prevent Alzheimer’s or simply age like a bad-ass.


The best results don’t come from listening to what any one person has to say but being able to discard the bullshit, be open to experimentation and learn how to make the best choices for yourself.

When everything is a polarized extreme of vegan vs carnivore or cardio vs weights, tuning in to Blasphemous Nutrition will give you a scandalously nuanced perspective on nutrition and actionable tips that you can begin to implement immediately, so you can rescue yourself from the eternal torment of chasing one dietary savior after another.

  • Holy Shiitake! Why Mushrooms Deserve a Seat at the Table

    Holy Shiitake! Why Mushrooms Deserve a Seat at the Table
    Sep 16 2025

    Every month a new “superfood” takes the spotlight, but mushrooms have been quietly carrying the science for decades. They deliver gut-training fibers, immune-priming beta-glucans, and rare antioxidants that guard your cells from numerous daily onslaughts.

    In this episode, I break down how fungi strengthen your microbiome, fine-tune your immune system, support your heart and blood sugar, and even show promise in longevity research. Mushrooms are simple, can be affordable, and are easy to add into the meals you already eat.

    Ready to see how a few servings a week can pay off for your health now—and for years to come? Hit play and let’s dig in.

  • CSI: Cortex — Lithium and Alzheimer's Disease

    CSI: Cortex — Lithium and Alzheimer's Disease
    Aug 27 2025

    Lithium: Not Just for Moods, but for Memories. A new Nature study links low lithium levels in the brain—not the blood—to early Alzheimer’s, with mouse data showing memory nearly restored when lithium was reintroduced. In this episode of Blasphemous Nutrition, I unpack the science, the hype, and the hazards: from plaques that “kidnap” lithium, why supplements aren’t the go-to, to the foods and waters where this quiet mineral naturally shows up. Eat your veggies, savor your seafood, and pour that mineral water—because lithium might be your brain’s unsuspecting guardian.
