Climate-friendly eating doesn’t have to mean swearing off steak forever or spending a fortune on “green” labels. We dig into the science behind food’s environmental impact, the myths around organic and local, and the small shifts that actually add up.

In this blog post, we’re unpacking key insights from our latest episode of Black Iron Radio, where coaches Ryann, Lauren, and Morgan break down how to eat healthy without breaking the bank. From grocery hacks and bulk cooking tips to their own favorite budget-friendly staples, they’re sharing the real-life strategies that help clients stay on track nutritionally—even when money (or time) is tight. If you’ve ever felt like healthy eating was too expensive or overwhelming, this episode will help you simplify your approach, cut waste, and stretch your grocery budget without sacrificing nutrition or flavor.
