Nutrition Without Compromise
Corinna Bellizzi
97 episodes
10 hours ago

In the modern era, our nutrition systems are in crisis. Foods that once had high levels of minerals and vitamins have seen their levels plummet as a result of the compromised health of our soil and ecosystems. With these changes, our waistlines have expanded, as food is less nutrient-dense and therefore less filling. Entire communities are undernourished and overweight. This is a direct result of the figurative and literal food deserts we live in today. It's time for a new era, one that puts nutrition first, without compromise. 


At Nutrition Without Compromise we believe that great nutrition and bountiful health is a human right. We believe that you should never have to make a choice between your ethics, your morals, the food on your plate, and the environment that produces it in order to stay your healthiest and live your best life. If you want to join a movement that challenges the status quo, that asks you to think deeply and discover new solutions that you might never have thought possible, then this podcast and community is exactly where you belong. 


This show is hosted by Corinna Bellizzi, a natural products industry veteran who has spent her entire professional career growing sustainable, regenerative brands that challenge the traditional way of doing things, and that always ask what we can do differently, and better. With a background in anthropology and ethnographic research she constantly seeks solutions to common problems that will work to improve the lives of greater communities around the globe. Corinna has an extensive nutrition background, having formulated and marketed hundreds of supplements and foods over the last 20+ years. These products include traditional approaches to health and wellness, incorporating herbal extracts, micronutrients (vitamins and minerals) and macronutrients including omega-3s, other essential fatty acids  and proteins. She is periodically joined by co-hosts including Tia Morell Walden, a holistic nutritionist and integrative nutrition health coach who is passionate about educating people from all walks of life on the many benefits of re-tooling their health by focusing on great nutrition and a whole-istic approach to living. 


Tia and Corinna are each experienced podcasters with successful shows. Corinna has been running the Care More Be Better podcast since January of 2021, focusing on regenerative solutions to social problems and the health of our planet. Tia is a co-host on Obsessed with Humans On The Verge of Change where she focuses on giving you the tools you need to live a healthier, happier and more fulfilling life. 


Tune in each week to deepen your knowledge of nutrition and health, uncover promising new research, and get to know incredible thought leaders in the health and wellness industry. Lean-in to the possibility of a better future and achieve your best health - without compromise.

How The Future of Nutrition Can Also Save the Earth with Corinna Bellizzi | The Creative Solutions Podcast | Hosted by Izolda Trakhtenberg

In a compelling episode of the Innovative Mindset Podcast, host Izolda Trakhtenberg interviews Corinna Bellizzi, a natural products industry executive and omega-3 expert who is not just shaping the future of sustainable nutrition but also actively changing how businesses think about their impact on the environment. This post summarizes their enlightening conversation, which explores the intersection of health, business ethics, and environmental sustainability.


The Power of Sustainable Business Practices:

Corinna Bellizzi opens the discussion by emphasizing the need for businesses to adopt sustainable practices from the outset. Her journey from leading Nordic Naturals, where she spearheaded significant growth, to focusing on plant-based omega-3 solutions illustrates a shift towards more environmentally friendly practices. Bellizzi highlights how traditional fish oil industries contribute to ocean degradation and overfishing, advocating for a pivot to algae-based omega-3s which offer a carbon-negative solution.


Innovative Approaches to Omega-3s:

Discussing the specifics, Bellizzi explains how omega-3 fatty acids are crucial for human health, supporting everything from cellular functions to inflammation management. Her new venture, Orla Nutrition, showcases the world’s first carbon-negative omega-3 oils, produced from algae rather than fish. This not only prevents overfishing but also uses carbon capture technology, turning a greenhouse gas into a high-quality, sustainable product.


Leading with Ethics and Impact:

A significant part of the podcast delves into Bellizzi's leadership philosophy, which blends ethical decision-making with strategic business practices. She describes how her teams operate under principles of collaboration and sustainability, ensuring that every business decision considers its environmental footprint. This approach not only helps the planet but also resonates with increasingly eco-conscious consumers.


Education and Advocacy for a Better Tomorrow:

Bellizzi also discusses her efforts to educate the public about sustainable nutrition through her podcast, "Nutrition Without Compromise." The show addresses the importance of dietary choices on personal health and the environment, featuring experts who advocate for reducing carbon footprints and enhancing sustainability.


Conclusion:

Corinna Bellizzi's work is a beacon for those looking to integrate business success with profound social and environmental impact. Her story is a call to action for both consumers and business leaders to rethink how their choices affect the world. By fostering sustainable practices and advocating for change, Bellizzi is not just contributing to a healthier planet but also inspiring others to join her in making a significant difference.


Call to Action:

For those inspired by Bellizzi’s vision, engaging with her content on "Nutrition Without Compromise," and following Orla Nutrition’s innovations, can be the first step towards embracing a more sustainable lifestyle. It’s a testament to how individual actions and corporate responsibility can collectively pave the way for a regenerative future.


This episode captures the essence of a transformative dialogue, encouraging us to reflect on how our health and ethical choices intersect with our responsibility towards the Earth.

  4. Carbon Neutrality and Sustainability: Berzin explains how the cultivation process of microalgae in Iceland, leveraging geothermal energy and carbon capture, achieves carbon negativity, a rare feat in agricultural activities. This sustainable approach not only addresses carbon footprint concerns but also reduces land and water usage compared to traditional cultivation methods.

Nutrition Without Compromise

In the modern era, our nutrition systems are in crisis. Foods that once had high levels of minerals and vitamins have seen their levels plummet as a result of the compromised health of our soil and ecosystems. With these changes, our waistlines have expanded, as food is less nutrient-dense and therefore less filling. Entire communities are undernourished and overweight. This is a direct result of the figurative and literal food deserts we live in today. It's time for a new era, one that puts nutrition first, without compromise. 


At Nutrition Without Compromise we believe that great nutrition and bountiful health is a human right. We believe that you should never have to make a choice between your ethics, your morals, the food on your plate, and the environment that produces it in order to stay your healthiest and live your best life. If you want to join a movement that challenges the status quo, that asks you to think deeply and discover new solutions that you might never have thought possible, then this podcast and community is exactly where you belong.

Corinna has an extensive nutrition background, having formulated and marketed hundreds of supplements and foods over the last 20+ years. These products include traditional approaches to health and wellness, incorporating herbal extracts, micronutrients (vitamins and minerals) and macronutrients including omega-3s, other essential fatty acids  and proteins. She is periodically joined by co-hosts including Tia Morell Walden, a holistic nutritionist and integrative nutrition health coach who is passionate about educating people from all walks of life on the many benefits of re-tooling their health by focusing on great nutrition and a whole-istic approach to living.

Corinna has been running the Care More Be Better podcast since January of 2021, focusing on regenerative solutions to social problems and the health of our planet. Tia is a co-host on Obsessed with Humans On The Verge of Change where she focuses on giving you the tools you need to live a healthier, happier and more fulfilling life.
