Ever wondered how your dinner plate can transform your health? Get ready to unravel the surprising connection between agriculture and healthcare with Carter Williams, a visionary at the confluence of these fields. The Reverse Mullet Healthcare Podcast Hosts, Ellen Brown, Justin Politi and Dave Pavlik, indulge in a stimulating conversation that promises to defy your expectations of the typical healthcare delivery dialogue. We're bringing food to the forefront of our value-based care discussion, inspired by Carter's rich background, from Boeing Ventures to the innovative iSelect Fund, and paralleling his sailing adventures with the challenges of nurturing health through nutrition.

 Hear Carter reflect on his personal journey from problem-solving around the family dinner table to pioneering Lean Six Sigma methodologies that rejuvenated military aircraft. This episode isn't just a trip down memory lane; it's an eye-opener to the potential of agricultural technology and healthy eating as cornerstones of value-based healthcare. We're not shying away from the stark reality of ultra-processed foods' impact on our society – thank you Mark Hyman for the statistics. Instead, we're taking a hard look at the repercussions and championing the vital role food plays in mitigating chronic health issues.

 Finally, we sail into the horizon of regenerative agriculture's role in value-based care and the burgeoning “Food is Medicine” movement with insights from Erin Martin's work with Midwest farmers. Imagine grocery stores doubling as health advisors, and GLP-1 medications reshaping our taste buds for the better. This episode isn't just a discussion; it's an exploration of the possibilities hidden within our meals, an invitation to view food as the first line of defense in our health arsenal. Join us for a conversation that's sure to feed your curiosity and perhaps even change the way you think about your next meal.
