355. How Soil Speaks to Your Cells with Zach Bush, MD
Why were Zach’s patients getting sicker and more inflamed even when eating kale and brussel sprouts and other foods he knew should be loaded with medicinal compounds?

Ultimately, soil health is human health.This conversation with Commune co-founder Jeff Krasno serves as a foundation for Commune's newest course, A Path to Healing People and Planet, hosted by Zach Bush, MD and Farmer's Footprint.
