You recognize the name “Kellogg” on your box of cornflakes, but Dr. John Harvey Kellogg wasn’t just a breakfast innovator, he was a full-blown health fanatic with some very questionable ideas. From his obsession with healthy living, to his extremely aggressive stance against certain…personal habits, Kellogg was on a mission to cleanse the body, mind, and…well, let’s just say he had a lot of thoughts about digestion. In this episode, we’re diving into the wild world of Kellogg’s sanitarium, his strange (and often horrifying) medical treatments, and how a cereal empire was born from a crusade against pleasure. Was he a forward-thinking health guru, a quack with a God complex, or just a man who really hated seasoning? Let’s find out! Grab a bland, fiber-rich snack and tune in.
