How’s Tristin and Juanique?
Juanique 2:14
- It's been really hard. Everyone is probably thinking 2020 was like the worst year of their lives, 2021 is potentially the worst year of my life..
How did the root beer float trigger start?
Juanique 8:08
- There was one day where he's just craving root beer floats. So his dad went out and bought him some ice cream, which is like a keto ice cream. It has low sugar, but a whole bunch of other ingredients. And then we got the zevia root beers and they taste really good, but they're sweetened with stevia. So I showed everyone online, I'm like, “Hey, this is how I make Justin's root beer floats.”
Is eating protein bars the same as eating Snickers??
Gina 11:19
- Seeing some of these bars, well, they’re healthy. It's a protein bar but it has 25 grams of sugar.
Are artificial sweeteners safe?
Juanique 37:00
- Artificial sweeteners do actually cause gut dysbiosis, which leads to obesity (long term), and it also leads to immune system dysfunction.
