Ever wonder how the gut microbiome works from a clinical perspective?

In this BONUS episode, I'm interviewing a Medical Doctor, Oncologist and Researcher from UCSF who gives us an inside look at how the gut microbiome behaves, especially when it comes to colorectal cancer outcomes.

The episode is a little longer, and more technical - so if you're a nerd like me, listen in for the great clinical information she shares on the gut microbiome, health, cancer, food and wouldn't you know it...MEAT!

In this episode, we're digging into a neurotransmitter that is depleted by increased levels of stress, anxiety, depression and even PTSD which can impact our gut microbiome and even our overall mental and physical health.

The question is, what foods help restore healthy GABA levels to help protect us all from the outcomes of anxiety and depression that will come from people being out of work and on COVID-19 lockdown during the unknown ?

Listen in to find out and give yourself the gift of GABA!

How is the spread of the COVID-19 coronavirus impacting our food security?

Our food security is being threatened, with the downturn of the economy, imports are probably going to slow down a lot more, and we are already seeing runs on the grocery stores with empty shelves, Costco is selling out of toilet paper (for some reason), many stores have already sold out of necessities and this, unfortunately, is just the beginning.

All the more reason to take responsibility for what gets onto your plate. So, buckle up...this one’s going to be a doozy.

In this BONUS Episode, I am joined by a permaculture farmer who is truly raising sustainable, healthy meat chickens and eggs who understands the struggle of not only raising healthy chickens and providing them with healthy food, space and love, but he also understands the struggle of what it takes to become profitable and still provide a clean, honest product to his customers.

In this episode, we’re talking about my beef with chicken and we'll get right down to the bone and talk about how the commercial production of chicken is also impacting the economy, the environment and our health...not to mention the health of the chickens themselves. Thanks for listening in!

My good friend, Michael, an entrepreneur, husband, father, coach and meat eater shares his journey, struggles and experience "going vegetarian". He's eight weeks in...listen in to hear his story.

There's an "underbelly" to this very popular green leafy vegetable that isn't so tasty. Listen in to find out how kale went from zero to hero in record time...

First, thanks for your interest in joining our community of food lovers, food truthers and food growers! 

Food Slain is hosted by me, Michele and I look forward to seeing you on the other side of the plate!
