The Eco Well podcast

Interview with Dr Joshua Wolrich - bunk wellness, and differentiating fact from fiction

From influencers and celebrities who swear the secret to wellness is literally sunshine on your butthole, or maybe your just not eating enough “SuPeR FoOdS” - To the idea that the only time people become unwell is because the government mandates it.
