He built a cash-pay concierge clinic to spend 60–90 minutes with patients, run deeper diagnostics, and create long-term, prevention-focused plans. He does not bill insurance (patients keep catastrophic coverage), which lets him order better tests and avoid the admin churn.Diagnostics that actually predict risk:Starts from top U.S. mortality drivers (cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cancer, trauma in older adults) and then chooses biomarkers that best reflect true risk, repeating them multiple times per year and explaining results in plain English with written notes.Cancer screening: uses blood tests that detect circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) as an early, broad screen; positives are followed by imaging (often full-body MRI or targeted MRI/PET).Heart disease: warns that calcium-score CT can miss early non-calcified plaque (common in 40s–60s). Prefers imaging that sees soft plaque before calcification.Whole-body MRI: advocates this for catching issues (like leg artery disease) that localized scans miss—especially relevant to older adults.Therapies & philosophy:Tools include peptides, hormones, PRP, and stem cells, but only after foundations: exercise, nutrition, and social health—there's no shortcut.Stem cells: strongly prefers autologous (your own) cells that are culture-expanded in a sterile lab, stored, and used over time (IV for systemic repair; guided injections for joints/spine).Cautions against routine allogeneic (donor/cord) cells due to immune reactions and potential long-term autoimmunity.Banking earlier is better, but even older adults can benefit; he shared an 80-year-old scoliosis case that avoided major spine surgery after one procedure.In-clinic process: mini-lipo harvest → lab isolation & expansion → cryostorage (annual maintenance fee ~$350).Advises skepticism about overseas clinics and some cord-blood banks with variable quality/control.If you're interested in online personal training or being a guest on my podcast, "Over 40 Fitness Hacks," you can reach me at brad@over40fitnesshacks.com or visit my website at:www.Over40FitnessHacks.comAdditionally, check out my Yelp reviews for my local business, Evolve Gym in Huntington Beach, at https://bit.ly/3GCKRzV
You may not think twice about paying that extra fee for canned soda, beer, seltzer, and other drinks at the grocery store, but how often do you bring the cans back to the store to get your money back? Over the years, Jeff Dinneen of Needham has made it his mission to collect those cans, redeem them, and use the money to supply the Needham Community Council with much-needed food and milk for local residents in need. He talks with Nichole this week about his inspiration, his process, and how you can help keep the project going.
In this episode, Brent speaks with Dr. Arthur Agatston, world-renowned cardiologist, creator of the South Beach Diet, and the pioneer behind the Agatston Score, better known as the calcium score. Dr. Agatston explains how this simple, low-cost CT scan can reveal hidden plaque in the arteries long before symptoms arise, offering a far more accurate predictor of heart attack risk than cholesterol numbers alone. They dig into why most heart attacks happen in people with “normal” cholesterol, how genetics and lifestyle play into risk, when to start screening, and the promise and pitfalls of more advanced imaging. He's a phenomenal guest, hope you enjoy.
In this episode of the PFC Podcast, host Dennis speaks with Steve Schauer, a lieutenant colonel in the US Army and a critical care fellow, about his research on calcium levels in trauma patients. They discuss the importance of understanding calcium derangements, the challenges of correlating civilian and military trauma, and the impact of pre-hospital care on calcium levels. Steve shares insights from his study, including data collection methods, patient enrollment, and the physiological implications of calcium in trauma care. The conversation also covers the prioritization of interventions in trauma management, the role of TXA, and the need for ongoing research in this critical area of medicine.TakeawaysCalcium derangements are common in trauma patients.Pre-hospital care can significantly affect calcium levels.Understanding the correlation between civilian and military trauma is challenging.Data collection in trauma studies is complex and requires careful planning.TXA is crucial for preventing the breakdown of clots in trauma patients.Calcium administration must be approached cautiously in trauma care.Blood products are the top priority in trauma management.The physiological role of calcium in coagulation is critical.Future research is needed to clarify the role of calcium in trauma care.Medicine is constantly evolving, and practitioners must stay updated.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Calcium Study in Trauma02:48 Understanding Calcium Derangements in Trauma Patients05:47 Challenges in Correlating Civilian and Military Trauma08:32 Pre-Hospital Factors Affecting Calcium Levels11:31 Data Collection and Patient Enrollment14:29 Retrospective Data Insights on Calcium Levels17:04 Calcium Administration in Trauma Care20:16 Prioritizing Interventions in Trauma Management23:25 The Role of TXA in Trauma Care26:19 Physiological Implications of Calcium in Trauma29:17 Final Thoughts and Future Research DirectionsFor more content, go to www.prolongedfieldcare.orgConsider supporting us: patreon.com/ProlongedFieldCareCollective or www.lobocoffeeco.com/product-page/prolonged-field-care
In this conversation, Jeff Sarris and Jill Harris discuss the relationship between calcium and kidney stones, emphasizing the importance of calcium in preventing kidney stones rather than dissolving them. Jill shares insights from her nearly 30 years of experience in helping patients manage kidney stones, highlighting the significance of urine tests to understand calcium levels. The discussion also covers dietary recommendations, the role of calcium in bone health, and the broader benefits of following a kidney stone diet.TakeawaysCalcium does not dissolve kidney stones but helps prevent them.A 24-hour urine collection is essential for understanding calcium levels.High urine calcium can lead to kidney stones, and diet plays a crucial role.Calcium is vital for bone health, especially as one ages.Pairing calcium with high oxalate foods can help reduce oxalate absorption.Dietary changes can lead to reduced need for medications.The kidney stone diet promotes overall health, not just stone prevention.Non-dairy sources of calcium are available for those who avoid dairy.Lowering salt and sugar intake is beneficial for kidney health.Education and awareness about kidney stones can empower patients.00:00 Understanding Calcium and Kidney Stones06:27 The Role of Diet in Kidney Stone Prevention11:57 Community and Resources for Kidney Stone Management——HAVE A QUESTION? _Leave us a voicemail at (773) 789-8764.KIDNEY STONE DIET® APPROVED PRODUCTSProtein Powders, Snacks, and moreWORK WITH JILL _Start HereKidney Stone Diet® All-Access PassKidney Stone Diet® CourseKidney Stone Diet® Meal PlansKidney Stone Diet® BooksPrivate Consultation with JillOne-on-One Deep Dive24-Hour Urine AnalysisSUPPORT THE SHOW _Join the PatreonRate Kidney Stone Diet on Apple Podcasts or Spotify——WHO IS JILL HARRIS? _Since 1998, Jill Harris has been the #1 kidney stone prevention nurse helping patients reduce their kidney stone risk.

Master your minerals. Harmonize your hormones. Start your mineral journey here. What if the root of your child's health struggles isn't another cream, pill, or quick fix, but something much deeper?In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Nina Marie Rueda, a naturopath who works with children and families through a functional, integrative lens. Her own journey started during her first pregnancy, when she realized how little she'd supported her body and baby with nutrition. This pregnancy completely changed her perspective, and she went from wanting to become a university professor to birth work, nutrition training, and eventually naturopathy.We get into why minerals matter so much for kids, especially when it comes to challenges like picky eating, eczema, and sleep struggles. Dr. Nina explains how testing works, why hair analysis often gives a clearer picture than blood work for children, and what common mineral patterns she sees in practice. The conversation is raw, practical, and full of insights for parents trying to make sense of their kids' health struggles without getting lost in overwhelm.You'll Learn:How a Bradley Method class shifted Dr. Nina's path to naturopathyWhat minerals actually do in kids' bodies and why they're essentialThe link between taste buds, zinc, and picky eatingWhy hair mineral tests show the long game while blood work is a snapshotCommon mineral patterns seen in children with eczemaHow heavy metals disrupt gut microbes and fuel skin issuesThe mineral imbalances behind sleep struggles in kidsWhy parents' own mineral status affects mealtime stressThe reason some kids' multivitamins should avoid iron and copperHow minerals shape digestion, detox, and resilience in childrenTimestamps:[00:00] Introduction[05:47] Why minerals are the non-negotiable foundation for children's health[07:40] Hair testing versus blood work for understanding mineral balance in kids[13:05] Why picky eating in kids often comes down to mineral imbalances and taste buds[22:46] Eczema in kids and the role of mineral imbalances and heavy metals[39:43] How mineral imbalances and heavy metals disrupt children's sleep patterns[45:22] Choosing the right multivitamins for kids and why avoiding copper and iron matters[49:10] Making supplements part of daily family routinesResources Mentioned:Minerals & Gut Health Connection for Eczema Course | WebsiteGut and Minerals Free Resource | WebsitePicky Eaters Protocol | WebsiteFind more from Dr. Nina:Nerdy Notes with Nina Marie | SubstackDr. Nina Marie | WebsiteDr. Nina Marie | InstagramFind more from Amanda:Hormone Healing RD | InstagramHormone Healing RD | WebsiteHormone Healing RD | FacebookHormone Healing RD | YouTubeHormone Healing RD | TikTok
Join us for this conversation with Matthew Coffman, where we dive into the powerful insights offered by Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA) and how it compares to standard serum testing. He explains the critical role minerals play in energy, detoxification, mental health, and chronic illness, touching on topics like electrolyte powders, vegetarian diets, sodium-potassium imbalances, and heavy metal toxicity. The conversation also covers oxidation types, the impact of alcohol and infections like parasites and SIBO on mineral levels, and the importance of tailored supplementation. Matthew also shares his personal healing journey, insights on children's mineral needs, and thoughts on fulvic/humic acids.Matthew Coffman is not your conventional health guru or biohacking enthusiast; his path into the world of integrative health was paved by personal adversity.

In this episode, I'm setting the record straight by discussing the real amount of calcium you need and where to find it in food. Plus, I'll share alternative strategies for supporting bone health that don't rely on calcium: weight training, vitamin C, and vitamins D and K2. Weight training and high-impact exercises promote new bone formation, while these vitamins stimulate bone-forming cells and enhance mineral binding in bones to prevent calcium loss.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

If you want to suffer by knee pain don't read this article!!!!Until I changed my life I had to suffer from severe knee pain. Sometimes it was so awful, when I went up the stairs the knee pain knocked me down… And I had strong scoliosis with severe disk problems and that impacted my knees… How healthy knee joints are working? We have liquid inside of the knees that helps to rejuvenate the knees and to lubricate the knees… Through moving of our knees the healthy knee joints get its nutritions through the pumping (caused by the moving of the knee joints) of the liquid in and out. And by that, the Cartilage will be restored!!!So more we use our knees so better they get.If we have clogged the supply or the drain of this liquid our knees can't function properly anymore… And this happens through: Arthrosis (happen by older people).Arthritis (inflammation inside of the knee).Or calcium crystals inside of the knee joints. Or through accidents … The Arthrosis or the Calcium crystals in the joints are caused by acid food like meat, fish, poultry and industrially produced food… What to do? Maybe change your Diet and make Body-exercises? If the knee pain is increasing more and more, the reason might be that the blood supply is loaded with unhealthy ingredients - Acid food…and too less exercises … You need to exercise your knees:with less pressure… and your knees should bend and never should be straight… So what, get a bicycle and adjust the saddle to the height that your knee will be never straight (20% is perfect). Ride the bicycle every day for at least 20 minutes. And eat every day 1 spoon Gelatin (blend it with water) to regrow the Cartilage. And if you do so your knee can recover!!Never stand with straight knees! Because it blocks the energy and your knees are not designed for that… Look at monkeys… YOU MUST CHANGE YOUR DIET! Otherwise, the unhealthy blood will not support the healing … for this you need healthy blood that doesn't clog the arteries inside of the knee!!! And today medicaments even slowing our healing! The orthopedic doctor tells you from a worn-out knee… and that is total nonsense because the knees are rebuilding itself again and again when using proper exercise and healthy food (get rid of your meat!!!) If we see the whole structure of our legs and spine we discover that if one part of the legs or spine is not working properly it will affect the knees… And that is so crucial to understand. What will affect the knees?For instance :Scoliosis.Problems/pain in the lower back, or neck. The disk (Lumber) L3 is protruded or broken. Standing a long time with straight knees.High heels shoes or unhealthy shoes… get a medical foot sole. Because all of these examples will change the bio-mechanics and geometry of the knee-joints… Side effects: Digestion-, bladder-, sleep- problems… Even a small injury can affect your whole body… You have to restore everything in your lower back, in the legs and even in your whole spine so that your knees can function properly…Otherwise, the damage will become worse every day! My Tibetan doctor said, your knee-pain has a history… It starts slowly. And so I did, and my knees and spine are healed and I don't have pain for over 20 years! Healing suggestion by Osteopathy:If you inject dextrose with water in the cartilages of the knees the cartilage will grow. And so you can rebuild your joints.

In this conversation, Jeff Sarris and Jill discuss the dietary factors that contribute to kidney stones, focusing on the worst foods to avoid and practical guidelines for prevention. They emphasize the importance of understanding oxalate levels in foods and how to manage dietary choices without feeling overly restricted. The discussion highlights the balance between enjoying food and maintaining health, providing listeners with actionable insights for kidney stone prevention.High Oxalate Food ListTakeawaysThe worst foods for kidney stones include high oxalate foods like spinach and rhubarb.Understanding oxalate levels is crucial for kidney stone prevention.You can have a budget for oxalate intake, allowing for some flexibility in your diet.Portion control is key; you don't have to eliminate all high oxalate foods.Calcium can help mitigate the effects of oxalate in the diet.Dietary restrictions should not lead to deprivation; balance is important.Water intake is essential for kidney stone prevention.Focus on reducing sugar and salt in your diet.The kidney stone diet is goal-oriented, not overly restrictive.You can still enjoy foods like baked potatoes in moderation.00:00 Introduction to Kidney Stone Prevention01:51 Understanding Oxalate and Its Impact05:56 The Worst Foods for Kidney Stones11:56 Portion Control and Dietary Flexibility14:51 Conclusion and Key Takeaways——HAVE A QUESTION? _Leave us a voicemail at (773) 789-8764.KIDNEY STONE DIET® APPROVED PRODUCTSProtein Powders, Snacks, and moreWORK WITH JILL _Start HereKidney Stone Diet® All-Access PassKidney Stone Diet® CourseKidney Stone Diet® Meal PlansKidney Stone Diet® BooksPrivate Consultation with JillOne-on-One Deep Dive24-Hour Urine AnalysisSUPPORT THE SHOW _Join the PatreonRate Kidney Stone Diet on Apple Podcasts or Spotify——WHO IS JILL HARRIS? _Since 1998, Jill Harris has been the #1 kidney stone prevention nurse helping patients reduce their kidney stone risk.

Listen to today's podcast... When you think of stress and food, you are often told to stay away from treats, like ice cream cones. Ice cream: My favourite food. Creamy. Cold. Sweet. Hard or Soft…doesn't matter. I love ice cream. It can be high in fat and it contains a lot of sugar. And it's not the kind of snack food that I should have everyday…though wouldn't that be absolutely wonderful? An ice cream cone has some definite pros. Ice cream may help in maintaining weight. How interesting is that? Ice cream for weight control. Research from the American Society of Experimental Biology found that a diet that included dairy prevented about 50 percent of weight regain and 80 percent of fat regain after the animals had lost weight and were allowed to eat at will. Now this research was done with animals, but if it works there it may work on humans….I would at least like to be a part of the experimental group…test group…not the control group. Ice cream may help me to keep my girlish figure. The North American Association for the Study of Obesity found in a study of 800 men and women that those who ate the most calcium were also the leanest. Research from Baylor College of Medicine and Texas Woman's University in Houston reported an association between the consumption of low-fat milk and dairy products and a lower waist-to-hip ratio. Ice cream may keep me from shrinking. Calcium is essential in preventing osteoporosis. One reasonable (insert small) serving of ice cream can give you 10% of your daily calcium intake. Did you know that: Ice cream is not a new treat…people have been creating frozen delicacies since 400 BC Britain's Margaret Thatcher was part of a research team that helped to develop soft ice cream The average American eats 18.3 litres of ice cream each year while Canadians eat 8.7 litres. Japan has the lowest consumption with .01 litres per year. Take One Action Today To Build Your #Resiliency! Here are my tips For Building Resilience By Celebrating National Ice Cream Cone Day: Ice cream can be a healthy treat. But it is a treat. I have nothing else…just go out and celebrate.

Immunic Inc (NASDAQ:IMUX) president and chief operating officer Jason Tardio talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's presence at the 41st Congress of ECTRIMS in Barcelona this week and the progress of its lead multiple sclerosis candidate, vidofludimus calcium. Tardio explained that Immunic is showcasing one oral and four poster presentations, including late-breaking data from the Phase 2 CALLIPER study in progressive multiple sclerosis. He said, “We showed very strong signals for reduction in confirmed disability worsening … and of course, the medicine is also and continues to be very safe and well tolerated in this population.” The CALLIPER trial assessed vidofludimus calcium in nearly 475 patients with both non-active secondary progressive MS and primary progressive MS. Tardio highlighted that the drug candidate showed promising effects on disability progression and MRI outcomes, addressing a high unmet need in this patient group. Immunic was also granted its fifth MS-directed US patent for vidofludimus calcium, covering multiple dosage strengths and applications in progressive MS and providing intellectual property protection until 2041. According to Tardio, this further strengthens the company's multilayered patent portfolio for vidofludimus calcium. Looking ahead, Immunic plans end-of-Phase 2 discussions with both the FDA and EMA before moving toward a potential Phase 3 program in progressive MS. Top-line data from the ENSURE-1 and -2 studies in relapsing MS are expected by the end of 2026.

"Calcium from food is the ideal source." — Dr. Jennifer Han Learn more about SEEN Nutrition: https://www.seennutrition.com If you've been with me for a while, you know bone health is one of my biggest passions. I've worked with the Bone Health & Osteoporosis Foundation for over 10 years, and I'm always on the lookout for innovations that can truly make a difference. That's why I'm so excited to share this conversation with Dr. Jennifer Han. She's a dual residency–trained, board-certified clinical pharmacist, functional medicine practitioner, and co-founder of SEEN Nutrition — the company behind the first calcium chew made entirely from real food. Dr. Han's personal story is remarkable. After a rare bone disease fractured her back just two months after giving birth, she set out to completely rethink calcium supplements — and what she's created could change the way we all think about supporting our bones. In our conversation, we cover: Why osteoporosis can affect women at any age — not just later in life Why most calcium supplements fall short, and what makes food-based calcium different How small, simple dietary changes (yes, even eating prunes!) can support bone density The importance of regular DEXA scans for tracking bone health Why it's never too late — or too early — to start caring for your bones Dr. Han's message is one I want every listener to hear: bone health is a lifelong commitment, and with the right knowledge and tools, you can protect your strength, mobility, and independence for years to come. Take a listen—and don't forget to follow the show so you never miss an episode. If you're enjoying Age Better, I'd be so grateful if you left a quick review wherever you listen.

Contributor: Taylor Lynch, MD Educational Pearls: What is atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular response (AFib with RVR) and how does it differ from atrial fibrillation (AFib)? AFib is an abnormal heart rhythm in which the heart has disorganized atrial electrical activity. This causes the atria to quiver with only select signals being conducted through the Atrioventricular (AV) Node to reach the ventricles and result in ventricular contraction. Often described as “irregularly irregular”, a patient's EKG will present with no discernible P-waves, and irregular R-R intervals. AFib with RVR is distinguished from AFib when the patient's ventricular rate is greater than 100-110 beats per minute in AFib with RVR. What is the treatment for AFib with RVR? Diltiazem is considered one of the first line therapeutic agents in the treatment of AFib with RVR. Diltiazem inhibits L-Type calcium channels in the AV Node, reducing the amount of signals conducted to the ventricles, thus reducing the ventricular rate. Why pretreat patients receiving Diltiazem for AFib with RVR with calcium? While diltiazem inhibits cardiac calcium channels, it may also cause peripheral vasodilation, resulting in diltiazem-induced hypotension. A recent study found that this hypotension can be blunted by pretreating with 1-2g IV Calcium Chloride (IV Calcium Gluconate can be used in the ED). Calcium is thought to peripherally stabilize the vascular smooth muscle, preventing vasodilation without impacting the desired calcium channel blocker action at the AV node. Key takeaways? In combination with slower pushes of diltiazem for patients in AFib with RVR (AFib with ventricular rate >100-110 bpm) with borderline low blood pressures, 1-2 g of IV Calcium Gluconate can combat diltiazem induced hypotension peripherally without negating the cardiac effect of diltiazem to reduce the heart rate.

Limb Alignment & Leg Length Discrepancies: Key Takeaways Guest: Brennan Roper, MD Discussion Points: Magnet-Based Leg Lengthening: Explore cutting-edge technology utilizing rods implanted in bone and an at-home magnet for non-invasive leg lengthening. This innovative approach allows for daily progress monitoring by providers, offering a minimally invasive alternative to traditional manual methods. Precision in Magnet Use: Understand the critical importance of using the correct magnet, placement, and parameters for effective leg lengthening outcomes. Understanding Leg Asymmetry: Learn that some degree of leg length asymmetry is normal. However, significant discrepancies warrant prompt medical attention, as early intervention can lead to less invasive treatment options. When to Seek Medical Advice: Recognize the importance of consulting a physician for any concerns regarding limb alignment, especially if a discrepancy exceeds 5mm or 1 cm. Specialized Care for Discrepancies: Discover why seeking a specialist for limb length discrepancies is crucial, rather than relying on general clinics or ready clinics. Supplementation for Teens: Discuss the role of Vitamin D supplementation, particularly for teenagers, due to potential dietary deficiencies. Calcium supplementation may also be considered based on laboratory findings. Long-Term Prognosis: Examine how the long-term impact of limb length discrepancies is influenced by the degree of the discrepancy and treatment goals. Even small differences, like 2mm, can allow for a quick return to sports after incision healing, with "guided growth" being a viable option for minor discrepancies. Miserable Malalignment Syndrome: Gain insight into this condition, characterized by knee or hip pain and a feeling of being "off," despite a seemingly neutral external appearance. This syndrome often involves internal rotation of the femur, knee valgus (knock-knee), and external rotation of the tibia. Tolerance for Differences: Understand that small leg length differences (2, 3, or 4mm) are generally well-tolerated, while angular discrepancies tend to be less so.

Anne-Marie's transformation story will blow your mind—from struggling with postpartum depression, grief, and a crumbling marriage to discovering the life-changing power of lifting heavy weights. But this isn't just about fitness; it's about reclaiming your power as a woman in a world that's been telling you to be "less" your entire life. Discover why our ancestors were built like elite rowers, how the "skinny obsession" is actually a modern patriarchal construct designed to keep women small and controllable, and why strength training is literally survival for women over 40. Plus, Anne-Marie reveals the shocking historical evidence that women have always been warriors—not delicate flowers picking berries. Dr. Betty and Anne-Marie dive deep into the bone-building benefits of strength training (crucial for preventing osteoporosis), the right way to fuel your workouts, and why that "high reps, low weight" advice is keeping you weak. They also tackle the persistent myth that women will "bulk up" and share practical tips for getting started—even with soup cans! What You'll Learn: Why chasing "skinny" is sabotaging your health and happiness The fascinating anthropological evidence that women were built to be strong How strength training transforms your confidence, not just your body The protein requirements for women over 40 (hint: it's way more than you think) Why resistance training is your best defense against bone loss Simple ways to start strength training at home or in the gym If you're ready to stop shrinking yourself and start building the strong, powerful woman you were meant to be, this episode is your wake-up call.

In this episode of Vineyard Underground, we welcome Dr. Belinda Kemp, viticulture and enology researcher at NIAB in East Malling, England, to explore the evolving wine industry in the UK. With a background in theatrical arts and a PhD in Pinot Noir, Dr. Kemp brings a dynamic perspective to the scientific and practical aspects of cool climate viticulture. The conversation covers England's emerging reputation for sparkling wine, the impact of climate variability on grape production, and the country's increasing focus on sustainability and innovation. Dr. Kemp discusses the shift from traditional varieties like Chardonnay and Pinot Noir toward disease-resistant hybrid grapes, including the introduction of PiWi varieties. She shares the challenges of managing common diseases like downy and powdery mildew and emerging threats like black rot. Listeners also get a glimpse into the latest research projects at NIAB, including the effects of pruning methods on yield, the role of calcium in sparkling wine stability, and the use of companion plants to improve vineyard biodiversity. Dr. Kemp explains how NIAB integrates technology and sustainability — from acoustic soil monitoring to underground rhizolabs — to support growers and improve wine quality. Whether you grow grapes in England or a similar cool, wet climate like the eastern U.S. or Canada, this episode offers applicable knowledge for tackling vineyard challenges and embracing innovation. In this episode, you will hear: England's wine industry is expanding rapidly, with a strong focus on sparkling wines New disease-resistant grape varieties are being trialed to meet climate and production demands Variability in spring weather creates challenges for cover crops, planting, and pest pressure Calcium stability is becoming an issue in sparkling wine production — NIAB is studying causes and solutions Companion planting and acoustic soil monitoring are part of a systems approach to regenerative viticulture Follow and Review: If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to follow the podcast and leave a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts!
