Throughout the years we have heard some crazy, sometimes shocking stories on Food Heals and this is the third installment of our shocking series. Last time you heard from Milo Runkle and Cody Carlson, two undercover investigators for Mercy for Animals who were able to shed light on animal cruelty and continue to fight to change the laws around animal abuse on factory farms.

And today, we have two incredible guests sharing their stories of healing through the power of food and lifestyle changes. Our first guest is John Salley, a former NBA player turned vegan activist and restaurant owner. You may know him from his basketball career, but what you may not know is how he used a vegan diet and colonics to heal himself from high cholesterol and a compacted colon.

John's journey to health inspired him to help others, including our second guest, Megan Brophy. Megan's story is truly amazing. Despite feeling healthy and energetic while living on a diet of burgers and junk food, her chance meeting with John Salley changed her life. After going vegan and making major lifestyle changes, Megan discovered her body was full of parasites, causing severe acne and other health issues. With perseverance and a parasite cleanse, Megan's skin cleared up and she continues to thrive on her healing journey.

Both John and Megan offer incredible insight into the power of nutrition and lifestyle changes to transform our health and wellbeing. So sit back, relax, and enjoy these inspiring conversations on Food Heals.

In today's episode of Food Heals, you'll hear from two incredible undercover investigators from Mercy For Animals who endured witnessing animal cruelty to shed a light on animal abuse and change the laws around factory farming.

In our first clip we hear from Mercy For Animals Undercover Investigator, Cody Carlson. Cody heard about Mercy For Animals when he was a private investigator for a business intelligence firm. Moved by their work, he reached out to the founder, Milo (Nathan) Runkle. Before he knew it, Cody had quit his job, grown a goatee and become an undercover animal rights investigator.

It was a wild ride. Working undercover as a farm hand is exhausting physical work and emotionally intense. He witnessed how over 4,000 cows were kept constantly pregnant, saw newborn calves torn from their mothers and left to die, or sold for slaughter. He saw how much the animals wanted to play, to be loved. His footage of workers' cruelty and the atrocities committed in the farm was broadcast by the media and resulted in legislation that changed how these animals are treated. And that was it. He was hooked. He went to law school and is now one of Mercy for Animal's attorneys.

In our second clip, we hear from the Founder of Mercy For Animals, Milo Runkle. Milo grew up on a farm in a small town. At 15 years old, after witnessing the brutal murder of a piglet, he founded Mercy for Animals. He started by carrying out open rescues: going into farms' undercover and rescuing injured animals. Trawling through manure pits, witnessing first-hand the cruel conditions, and investigating the horror of slaughterhouses made him even more determined to give animals a voice and drive positive change in the world.

Throughout the years, we have heard some crazy and sometimes shocking stories on Food Heals. In this series, we're sharing the best of the best. You'll hear about a woman who had only 11 hours to escape from an abusive husband with her daughter in tow without letting him find out. You'll also hear from an actress who survived not one but TWO near-death experiences, a basketball player who proved that you don't need meat for muscle and can be a healthy, athletic vegan, a health coach who discovered where parasites really live in the body and how to remove them for good (hint: it's not pretty), and undercover investigators who endured witnessing animal cruelty to shed light on animal abuse and change the laws around factory farming.

In the first episode in the series, the Alli and Suzy throw it back to episodes 194 and 126, where they interview two inspiring women who have overcome shocking, difficult challenges in their lives. In Part 1, they speak with Rosie Aiello, a survivor of an abusive relationship who eventually made "the great escape" from her abusive husband with her daughter in tow. Rosie is now a successful entrepreneur, coach, and author who is on a mission to help other women escape abusive relationships and thrive.

In Part 2, they interview Maura Knowles, a survivor of two near-death experiences who turned her health struggles into a musical comedy and a line of healthy treats. Maura Knowles lay on the operating table, awake. A routine procedure that should have taken a few minutes had turned into a life-threatening operation. She was only 20. Everything that could have gone wrong in hospital, did—pancreatitis, infections, misdiagnoses, you name it. She survived not one near death experience, but two! Her fighting spirit and the support of her family pulled her through.

Could your household skincare and beauty products be destroying your health? Today's guest found out the hard way and after healing herself made it her mission to help others do the same.

Stephanie Greenwood was suffering from a whole host of hormone related conditions including PCOS. After discovering that many environmental toxins mimic estrogen in the body, and these xenoestrogens were present in the personal care products she was using on her skin, Stephanie went on to create her own company Bubble and Bee with safe, organic products that will not disrupt our hormones.

In his episode of Food Heals, Stephanie shares her personal journey of overcoming hormone imbalances, healing from trauma, and starting her own business. She also provides insights on her four pillars for healing PCOS, which include dietary principles, environmental toxins, the best supplements for PCOS, and emotional/trauma healing.

Stephanie's Story:

Stephanie shares how, at the age of 28, she was diagnosed with adenomyosis, a condition that causes heavy menstrual bleeding and painful periods. Her doctors suggested that she either undergo a hysterectomy or have a baby to cure the condition. Feeling frustrated with the lack of options, Stephanie began researching the root cause of her hormonal imbalances. She discovered that many environmental toxins mimic estrogen in the body, and these xenoestrogens were present in the personal care products she was using on her skin.

Stephanie searched for products without harmful chemicals, but even the products in health food stores contained parabens and phthalates. As a chemist, Stephanie decided to take matters into her own hands and started making her own products. After receiving rave reviews from friends and family who tried her products, she decided to start selling them at farmer's markets. In 2007, Bubble & Bee Organic was born, and within a year, they landed their first wholesale account with Whole Foods and launched their website.

Bubble & Bee Organic Today:

Today, more than 15 years later, Bubble & Bee Organic is still going strong. They manufacture everything in-house in their USDA-certified organic processing facility in the Rocky Mountains of Utah. By manufacturing in-house, they can ensure that their products are of high quality, and they can ship out small, fresh batches. Stephanie and her team take pride in their work, and they strive to never compromise their standards, even if it means staying small.

Lyme disease can cause a range of symptoms, including fever, rash, joint pain, and fatigue, even arthritis, heart problems, and neurological issues. In the last two episodes, we spoke to Devon Dionne, Adrienne Nolan-Smith, and Robin Shirley who all used varying combinations of nutrition, detoxification, and alternative medicine to heal their Lyme disease.

In this episode, you will hear Dr. Stephan Cabral give a listener advice on her Lyme disease. Then we chat with Aimee Valpone, who shares her harrowing story of overcoming Lyme and how changing her diet and learning how to detox saved her life when she was at death's door.

Dr. Stephen Cabral is a board-certified Naturopath, Ayurvedic, Functional Medicine and Integrative Health Practitioner. He is the founder, creator and teacher of the Integrative Health Practitioner Institute. In today's episode Dr. Cabral answer's a listener question about Lyme, Sibo and the FODMAP diet.

Then we will hear from Amie Valpone and her journey to heal. For years, Aimee suffered from various ailments, including Lyme disease and PCOS, and conventional medicine failed to provide a diagnosis. Doctors treated her symptoms with pill after pill, but nothing seemed to work. Even when she was lying in a hospital bed with morphine dripping into her arm, her HR department contacted her to say they thought she was bluffing, because she was blogging. This was the moment when Aimee decided that if she survived, she would dedicate her life to helping others. And that's exactly what she did.

As Aimee began detoxing, many emotional issues surfaced, including the trauma from years of looking for someone to diagnose her, not being believed, and searching for answers. She started to detox her entire life, including holistic practices such as cranial sacral therapy and energy healing.

Aimee shares her story on her blog to help others heal themselves. She guides them through health tests, including one that checks for the MTHFR gene, without which the body cannot properly detoxify. She emphasizes that high toxicity is one of the main reasons the body gets ill. This is where detoxing is incredibly powerful because it essentially gets the bad stuff out of your body. Eating organic foods helps the body cope with the bombardment of toxins.

If you're interested in learning more about Aimee's journey and the power of detoxing, be sure to check out her book, Eating Clean: The 21-Day Plan to Detox, Fight Inflammation, and Reset Your Body.
