Beyond The Basics Health Academy Podcast

We are excited to have back Andrea Kasper from Crosswind Farms.  She sits down with Dr. Meaghan today to discuss what is in our clothing and homes that is interfering with our health.  A lot of this discussion is based on the work of Alden Wicker and the book "To Die For."   Many synthetic blends have chemicals in them that can disrupt our hormones and cellular pathways.  We talk about why we are using these chemicals, how they are not labeled, and what we can do as consumers to make better choices. Follow Andrea @crosswindsfarm_mn And thanks everyone for listening!

The conversation also explores how LDN supports the immune system, helps modulate inflammation, and can be effective in breaking cellular patterns that contribute to long-term health issues. Tune in to learn more about how LDN can offer a therapeutic approach to healing and regeneration.
