Ep. 139: Unhealthiest Holiday Foods (Perspectives)

It's the season of indulgence—and let’s be real, some holiday favorites are nutritional nightmares in disguise. This week on The My Five Cents Podcast, hosts SoSo Juv and Logical Genius are joined by guest host Jayna Marie of Big Lash Energy and special guest Jenn Trepeck—a powerhouse in the wellness world—for a festive episode that cuts through the sugar, fat, and holiday hype.

Jenn is an Optimal Health Coach, award-winning podcaster, and author of the upcoming book Uncomplicating Wellness. With her podcast Salad with a Side of Fries, she's been on a mission to bring real, science-backed nutrition education to the masses—without the guilt, shame, or kale-only attitude. This time, she’s helping us break down the Unhealthiest Holiday Foods you might be celebrating a little too hard.

But of course, this is The My Five Cents Podcast, so you know what that means—each host brings their own Top 5 list, calling out the heavy hitters like deep-fried stuffing balls, sugar-bombed pies, and gravy-drenched disasters. Expect debates, gasps, and a few guilty confessions.

Jenn brings the perfect balance of nutritional expertise and real-life compassion as she weighs in on each list, offering insights into what actually makes a food “unhealthy” and how to navigate holiday eating without losing your mind (or your metabolism).

🎄 Is your holiday plate a health hazard? Or just misunderstood?

🎧 Tune in for science, sass, and surprising facts about the foods we love to overeat—and find out which host ends up on the wellness naughty list.
