What if your tomato is big, red, juicy… and nutritionally empty? In this episode, Dr. Alex Sandrow breaks down the hidden crisis of nutrient depletion—from glyphosate and “fruitabolic” farming to the collapse of soil microbes. You’ll learn why your food isn’t what it used to be, how industrial agriculture hijacked our nourishment, and what you can actually do about it. From smart supplementation to the power of movement and testing, this episode is your field guide to rebuilding health from the ground up.
