Listen Later

Think you're eating healthy with your daily green smoothie and salad? What if the foods you believe are nourishing you are actually working against your body's natural design?

In this episode of Habits and Hustle, I sit down with Dr. Josh Axe to discuss why many "superfood" staples might be sabotaging your health – especially for women with thyroid issues. We also discuss the Biblio diet, explore why organ meats are nature's ultimate multivitamins, and share natural alternatives to antidepressants that actually address root causes.

Dr. Josh Axe is a doctor of natural medicine, clinical nutritionist, and author of multiple bestselling books including his newest one "The Biblio Diet." He's helped thousands reverse chronic conditions through personalized nutrition and runs The Health Institute, a virtual functional medicine practice. His approach combines ancient healing wisdom with modern science to address the root causes of disease.
