Something New Is Coming — And It Is for You

Every day, millions of people take a prescription medication and eat a meal without ever thinking about whether those two things belong together. Most of the time, nothing happens. But sometimes — quietly, invisibly — the food on your plate changes how your medication works in your body.

That is the conversation that has been missing. Until now.

When Food Meets Medicine is a new weekly podcast hosted by Dr. Remi Olukoya, PharmD, launching on April 7, 2026. It is free to listen, available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube, and it is designed for anyone who has ever taken a pill and wondered, "Should I be eating something different?"


Who Is This Podcast For?

This podcast was built for three groups of people who rarely get the same information in the same place:

Families and patients managing daily prescriptions — whether for blood pressure, diabetes, thyroid conditions, mental health, or chronic pain — who want to eat well without accidentally undermining their treatment.

Caregivers supporting an elderly parent, a child with a complex diagnosis, or a loved one recovering from surgery, who need practical, trustworthy guidance they can act on at mealtimes.

Clinicians and healthcare professionals — pharmacists, nurses, physicians, dietitians, and allied health workers — who want evidence-based, patient-friendly content they can recommend to the people in their care.


What You Will Hear

Each episode brings together Dr. Remi and a specialist guest — cardiologists, transplant surgeons, clinical pharmacists, nutritionists, psychiatrists, and more — to explore one specific intersection of food and medicine. The conversations are educational, relatable, and free of unnecessary jargon.

You will hear real stories. You will get specific, actionable takeaways. And every episode ends with the same reminder that drives everything we do:

"Eat smart, your meds matter, your body will love you for it." — Dr. Remi Olukoya, PharmD


Why Now?

Food-drug interactions are one of the most under-discussed topics in patient education. Grapefruit and statins. Leafy greens and blood thinners. Dairy and antibiotics. Tyramine-rich foods and MAOIs. The list is long, the stakes are real, and most patients never hear about it until something goes wrong.

Dr. Remi has spent years as a licensed pharmacist and clinical educator watching patients make preventable mistakes — not because they were careless, but because no one told them. This podcast is the answer to that gap.
