197: Jake Marquez & Maren Morgan - Death In the Garden Jake Marquez and Maren Morgan are filmmakers, writers, and podcasters. They chat with Dr. Anthony Gustin about their crazy journey making their documentary and podcast: Death In the Garden. For the last four years, Jake and Maren have been trying to untangle the complex, tangled web of how we address climate change, fix the food system, and, hopefully, save the world. Their project discusses these and other problems in our society through the lenses of ecology, philosophy, myth, storytelling, and, ultimately, our fear of death. Jake and Maren have experienced their fair share of anxiety, despair, and existential dread on their quest for ecological and cultural regeneration. But as you’ll hear in the episode, they’ve learned how to find meaning and purpose. They also helped Jake’s mom start a grass-fed tallow balm company called The Beekeeper’s Granddaughter! Tune into the episode as these three chat about: What inspired Jake and Maren to start the Death In The Garden project Why prioritizing “left-brain consciousness” is harming our society/planet What it looks like to live ethically in an unethical world The four reasons people go vegan (and why Jake stopped) The potential collapse and finding good in the next “Dark Ages” Finding meaning and purpose in life The value of conscious, intentional consumption The most important things we can do to change the food system How being conscious about our mortality empowers us to embrace the natural cycles of life, death, and regeneration (and not make the same mistakes) Their hopes for this generation and what’s next for them Resources mentioned in this episode: Visit HVMN.com/AG to get 30% off your first subscription order of Ketone-IQTM Visit LineageProvisions.com and use code AG20 for 20% off your first order Jake and Maren’s substack: on Instagram on Twitter Jake’s Mom’s grass-fed tallow balm company: by E.F.

Poet, author of three books, educator, farmer, hunter-husbandmand, entrepreneur, father — the list goes on.

Tune in to hear more about: Daniel’s approach to sharing his stories and writing his best-sellers Why it was so difficult for Daniel to get blurbs from regenerative ag experts for his new book The nuances of soil health and the confusion of verified regenerative protocols Why things are getting worse for smallholder family farms How we can “do local food better” Why Daniel disagrees with people who think we need to scale the regenerative movement to make an impact The power of collaboration and a “collective consciousness” for farmers Educating city dwellers about the importance of local, rural communities on food supply chains Why technology won’t save us from food scarcity Whether companies selling regenerative meats are actually helping The difference between Mother Culture and Mother Earth Resources mentioned in this episode: Daniel Firth Griffith’s Daniel’s podcast Daniel’s Daniel’s new book, Daniel’s previous book Daniel’s meat company Daniel’s holistic management school, Dr. Gustin’s /episode/index/show/dranthonygustin/id/26548338

173: Dr. Terry Wahls - Improving Progressive Multiple Sclerosis Outcomes Using Nutrition and Lifestyle Changes 03/27/2023

173: Dr. Terry Wahls - Improving Progressive Multiple Sclerosis Outcomes Using Nutrition and Lifestyle Changes Dr. Terry Wahls was diagnosed with secondary progressive Multiple Sclerosis (MS) diagnosis in 2007. She was bedridden and could barely walk and sitting up was a challenge for her. As a medical doctor, she dove into aggressive treatment options to try to beat her disease and symptoms, but unfortunately, they didn’t find much relief. She also dealt with debilitating pain that made it hard for her to work and function normally. Instead of succumbing to MS, Dr. Wahls vowed to do everything she could to alleviate the awful symptoms she was dealing with. It led her down a path of discovering nutritional and lifestyle therapies that could offer real relief. They were so effective that she became active again, both walking and cycling, and she returned to living a normal life, free from being wheelchair-bound, with a huge increase in her quality of life. She went on to develop The Wahls Protocol and led several research studies, including eight clinical trials, that proved just how effective these dietary changes are in treating progressive MS. In this episode with Dr. Anthony Gustin, you’ll hear about Dr. Wahls’ inspiring and incredible health journey, how nutrition can drastically impact autoimmune conditions, and the diets that can help these conditions. You’ll also hear her thoughts on using the carnivore diet for autoimmune conditions, the two nutrient-dense foods she recommends eating whether you’re sick or not, and the spiritual component of healing and health. Dr. Wahl also shares the symptoms and conditions that may be a red flag for future autoimmune issues, what you can do to treat those before they become worse, and the mindset she adopted to help herself and her family get through the most challenging parts of her health journey. Dr. Terry Wahls is a clinical professor of medicine at the University of Iowa Carver College of Medicine. She teaches internal medicine residents in their primary care clinics and does clinical research. Dr. Wahls has been published in over 60 peer-reviewed scientific abstracts, posters, and papers, and her work has been cited thousands of times. She’s also on her eighth clinic trial, working hard to show that dietary and lifestyle interventions are effective treatment options for people suffering from autoimmune conditions. In this episode, you’ll learn about the following topics: Dr. Terry Wahls’ incredible health journey and how she went from barely being able to walk or sit up to being active again and living a high quality of life despite being diagnosed with secondary progressive MS Dr. Wahls’ aha moment in her healing health journey and how she started researching alternative treatment options The diets being studied for progressive MS treatments and which ones have shown the most promising results The nutrients she focused on adding to her diet to start repairing her mitochondrial health Is the carnivore diet a good option for people with autoimmune conditions like MS? Is there only one diet or more than one that works at increasing the longevity and quality of life in MS patients? Two nutrient-dense foods Dr. Wahls included in her diet to improve her MS outcomes Other conditions that may benefit from The Wahls Protocol The other lifestyle factors Dr. Wahls addressed aside from nutrition to improve her condition and quality of life The spiritual component to better health and healing What keeps Dr. Wahls going now that she’s seen incredible improvements in her condition Resources mentioned: Dr. Terry Wahls’ Dr. Terry Wahls’ , , , and channel Where you can Dr. Wahls’ book, /episode/index/show/dranthonygustin/id/26321124
