Despite their controversial reputation, psychedelics are being widely used by doctors, shamans, retreat leaders, and more across the world to treat trauma and PTSD. Whether it's Psilocybin, Ayahuasca, or another form of plant medicine, rapid healing can occur when using these medicinal plants. So, how do we learn to unlock the rapid healing power of these psychedelics? Imagine addressing lifelong trauma, PTSD, addiction, and more within minutes, without the need for years of traditional therapy. Contemplating questions like these inspired this three-part series on Food Heals, where we discuss the healing power of plant medicine. In this series, you'll hear brand-new interviews with leading experts in the field of psychedelics who share their personal healing journey, as well as how you can access the power of plants to heal yourself. Whether you want to grow medicine at home like Paul taught us last time or go to a retreat center like Derek will tell us about today, there is an option for you to explore if plant medicine is right for you. In the first episode of this series, you heard from Paul Austin, the CEO of Third Wave, a pioneer reshaping our perceptions of psychedelics and guiding on growing your own plant medicine at home. In today's episode, part two of our series, I'm talking to Derek Januszewski, the founder of Pachamama Sanctuary, an Ayahuasca retreat center. He'll share the story of how plant medicine assisted in his journey to overcome childhood abuse and a decade-long battle with addiction. Through intense inner work, extensive engagement with medicine, and countless hours of service, Derek has healed much of his trauma. The spiritual healing he received through plant medicine inspired him to start Pachamama Sanctuary, aiming to help others find their own path to health and happiness. Pachamama Sanctuary, an Ayahuasca center in Southern Maine, was founded in 2019. Since its inception, its mission has been to elevate collective consciousness through the sacrament of Ayahuasca—a tea derived from plants in the Amazon rainforest. It has facilitated profound insights and clarity into past traumas, offering a chance for peace, especially for those grappling with addiction, PTSD, or negative cycles. Stay tuned for part 3, where I speak with former police officer Nick Motycka, who healed 15 years' worth of job-related trauma. He transitioned from being clinically diagnosed with severe PTSD to no longer meeting the criteria for a diagnosis through the use of plant medicine. Thank You to Our Sponsors!

Whether it's Psilocybin, Ayahuasca, MDMA, or even LSD, Psychedelics have been given a bad name over the years, but what is the truth about these demonized drugs? Do they fit the drug category or do they fit the plant medicine category? What if we could unlock their healing power in a matter of minutes, addressing lifelong trauma and PTSD without years of therapy?  These questions are what inspired this three part series on Food Heals where we are discussing the healing power of plant medicine.

"I was like reborn," the art critic Clement Greenberg once remembered, "it was the most important event in my life." The event in question was his encounter with Sullivanian therapy. His biographer, Florence Rubenfeld, once wrote that it would not overstretch the facts to say that after the late '50s, Clem's comportment in the art world can only be understood in this context. Yet despite how large Clement Greenberg looms as the most impactful U.S. critic of the 20th century, few people know this history. A new book called The Sullivanians, Sex, Psychotherapy, and the Wild Life of an American Commune is raising the subject once again, as literally one chapter in a much larger narrative. A lot of other people shared Greenberg's experience of rebirth. From the 1950s to the 1980s, hundreds of bright, educated people looking for purpose and community passed through the doors of the Sullivan Institute for Research in Psychoanalysis on New York's Upper West Side. Formulated into a doctrine by Saul Newton and Jane Pierce, this experimental therapy promised to liberate devotees from both creative and sexual repression. In the course of the 60s, it would evolve into a multi-decade experiment in polyamory, collective living, and group child rearing, before eventually coming apart in scandal when the inner workings of the group were exposed in the 1980s. Recently, the author of The Sullivanians, Alexander Stile, joined Ben Davis to talk about both about the Sullivan Institute's contact with U.S. art at mid-century, and more importantly, about the larger story of what this group became and what it represents now.

Did you know that physical clutter can also clutter up our minds, not to mention the dust cluttering up our bodies? But, lack of space is not the cause of clutter. Disorganization results in 80 percent of the clutter in most homes. In the average home, getting rid of clutter eliminates 40 percent of housework. Plus, most of us only use 20 percent of what we own! In the last two episodes, we heard from experts about the power of detoxing our homes, now it's time to declutter! First up, it's Wellness Expert Kimberly Van Der Beek, who shares her tips for decluttering, air-cleaning plants (that's right, plants that actually clean your air), and her top tips to thrive! Then I catch up with Janice McQueen, host of the Beauty Call podcast, who shares that her secret to clarity is decluttering and how she does it.

Have you ever asked yourself any of the following questions? Which of the unpronounceable chemicals listed on the back of my shampoo bottle might be toxic? Why aren't companies always required to list toxic ingredients on their product labels? How can I make sure my kids and pets are safe while also keeping my home clean? Creating a healthy, non-toxic home often feels like a losing battle. When it seems like everything is bad for you, from pesticides in your produce to flame retardants in your mattress, it's hard to get motivated to change. That's why I have three incredible guests here to help us learn the little adjustments we can all make to have a big impact on our health. Plus, we'll get their advice on detoxing our home and beauty products, and what to use instead.

Then we've got Sandee Ferman from No Tox Life - a company that provides natural, toxin-free vegan body care to help you live a cleaner, greener lifestyle.

Did you know that over 80,000 chemicals are currently being used in the United States? What's even scarier is that most of these chemicals haven't even been tested on how they can affect our health.

How can we make sustainable changes and help rid our bodies of these unwanted toxic chemicals? That's what my guests in this three-part series are here to break down for you.

Today we're back - diving into the world of EMFs, those sneaky invisible energy stressors that come from electrical power, cell phones, Wi-Fi, and our beloved smart devices. In our tech-savvy era, we've got pressing questions: Do EMFs mess with our bodies? And what about our trusty wearables like smartwatches, fitness trackers, and smart rings? Are they helping us or harming us? My guest today is here to answer these questions and more. Today it's part 2 of my interview with Justin Frandson. Justin is not your average coach; he's an Athleticism Performance Coach. Justin isn't your run-of-the-mill coach; he's an Athleticism Performance Coach with over 25 years of experience, working closely with athletes from various sports. He's renowned for his expertise in nerve work for sports performance and his swift, effective concussion treatments. Justin's journey took a unique twist when he noticed health issues in his patients caused by wearable tech like smartwatches about a decade ago. He realized that everything around us carries a resonance, and he's all about harnessing the power of light, sound, frequency, and vibration to facilitate healing and supercharge performance. So, what's his solution? It's the EMF Rocks Grounding Bags, available at www.emfrocks.com/FOODHEALSNATION. These bags pack magnetic Tesla crystals designed to tackle EMFs head-on, providing relief from modern technology-related health concerns. Now, let's talk about these bags.

What are the effects of EMF frequencies, cell phones, Wi-Fi, and smart devices on our bodies? Are wearable technologies such as smartwatches, fitness trackers, and smart rings actually helping us or harming us? My guest today is here to answer these questions and more. Justin Frandson is not your average coach; he's an Athleticism Performance Coach and the Founder of Athleticism.com and EMFRocks.com. With over 25 years of experience, Justin has worked extensively with athletes in a wide range of sports. He's known for his expertise in nerve work for sports performance and his ability to treat concussions swiftly and effectively. What sets Justin apart is his unique approach to healing and performance enhancement. He recognizes that everything in our world has a resonance, and he harnesses the power of light, sound, frequency, and vibration to facilitate healing and boost performance. About ten years ago, he noticed that many of his patients were experiencing body breakdowns and negative side effects due to their wearable technology like smart watches. Justin went on a quest to discover a natural solution, one inspired by the wisdom of nature. The result of his journey? His EMF Rocks Grounding Bags, which you can find at www.emfrocks.com/FOODHEALSNATION.

Meet Dr. Marty Goldstein, a seasoned veterinarian who's seen a dramatic shift in pet health over the last 25 years. In the past, cancer mainly struck older pets, but now even puppies aren't spared. Dr. Goldstein blames this change on generations of pets raised on lousy diets (yes, kibble, we're looking at you) and constant exposure to chemicals like flea repellents. The real kicker? Sixty percent of Dr. Goldstein's animal patients come to him with acute illnesses, often after being given up on by other vets who recommend extreme treatments or even euthanasia. But here's the good news: Dr. Goldstein's unique approach to pet health is changing the game. He can significantly improve the quality of life for 50% of cancer patients and 80% of those with degenerative diseases. How? By going beyond traditional methods and using a blend of herbs, vitamins, supplements, acupuncture, and more. His integrative approach can extend a cancer patient's life by 50% to 60% compared to standard treatments. You can see Dr. Goldstein's work in action in the documentary "The Dog Doc" and learn more in his books, "The Nature of Animal Healing" and "The Spirit of Animal Healing." He's even sharing his wisdom with the prestigious Cornell University. Forbes Magazine dubbed him the "Miracle Worker" for his game-changing contributions to veterinary medicine. He's been a guest on national TV shows like The Oprah Winfrey Show, The Martha Stewart Show, and Good Morning America. Dr. Marty Goldstein is a pioneer, showing us that sometimes the best way to care for our furry friends is by thinking outside the kibble box.  Thank You to Our Sponsors!

"Fascist, out of touch, crass, privileged, dumb" – just some of the names I was called online yesterday when a very prominent newspaper posted an extremely fear-mongering article about a COVID comeback, basically insinuating we should stay inside over Labor Day weekend. As you well know, being outside is one of the best things you can do for your mental, emotional, and physical health. So, I posted that maybe, just maybe, we could take into consideration the health benefits of vitamins, vegetables, exercise, and sunshine. The comment section went berserk. My little comment set the internet ablaze. I literally wrote that comment and didn't think twice about it. I went about my day and forgot about it. So, I'm at the gym this morning, doing the leg machine, listening to a podcast, and the podcast mentioned how the news was starting to fear-monger about staying inside again. I thought, 'Oh yeah, I wonder if anyone responded to my comment.' That's when I saw it. People were going nuts, fighting each other in the comment section under my comment. Some supported what I said, while others attacked me and each other, calling names left and right. My question is, when the heck did being healthy become so polarizing, and why does it trigger so many people? When did it become normal for the news to act as a medium of fear-mongering rather than as a medium of truth and facts? Now, I choose not to live in fear. I choose to live in empowerment. I know the body is designed to heal itself when given the tools it needs to do so. Don't let your government, your politicians, or your doctors tell you otherwise. Don't buy into the fear. Don't buy into the politicization of health. Politics today just want to define us and divide us. My goal is to live a long, strong, healthy, joyful life free from chronic degenerative disease. So many people are living in fear and in the expectation that they are going to get sick, that being in a chronic disease state is inevitable or genetic. No, it's not. Nothing is inevitable. You are in control. You have the power to choose health every day. I have never had COVID. I rarely ever get sick. I've talked to some other people like me who have avoided getting sick this whole time, and I wondered if I knew what my healing protocol is. I have shared it on this show before. I know what works for me, but I was curious – what are the commonalities between me and others who have not gotten sick? So, I wanted to share those with you today.

First, I'm answering your questions about lab-grown meat, then I am talking to Dr. Deepika Krishna about healing gynecological cancer, and finally I'll be covering one of the most controversial topics of our time and making a very special announcement. Part 1: What's The Deal with Lab-Grown Meat? With Bruce Friedrich Lab-grown meat, also known as cultured meat, is a big advancement in making food in a better way. Instead of raising lots of animals on farms, scientists grow just the muscle part of animals in labs. This helps solve problems like hurting animals and harming the environment. Lab-grown meat has great advantages: it can stop animals from suffering on farms, give us healthier meat, and help our planet by causing less pollution and using fewer resources. Bruce Friedrich is co-founder and executive director of The Good Food Institute (GFI.org), a nonprofit organization that promotes healthy and sustainable alternatives to industrially produced meat, dairy, and eggs. Bruce is the co-author of Clean Protein: The Revolution that Will Reshape Your Body, Boost Your Energy—and Save Our Planet  Part 2: Taking a Holistic Approach to Gynecological Cancer with Dr. Deepika Krishna Dr. Deepika Krishna is an Integrative Health Coach and accomplished gynecologist, specializing in supporting people in their journey towards healing from chronic lifestyle ailments while promoting immunity and long-lasting well-being. Her expertise extends to gynecological cancers, and she places a strong emphasis on strengthening the body's defense mechanisms to ward off diseases, including cancer and other persistent health issues. Driven by personal experience, she embarked on a holistic mission to restore her own health after facing hormonal imbalances that traditional medical approaches couldn't resolve. This profound journey led her to recognize the importance of considering the entire body, rather than just symptoms, allowing her to better guide her patients towards comprehensive wellness. Her commitment to this approach is reflected in her work, aimed at empowering others to achieve optimal health and vitality.

In today's episode of Food Heals, we delve into the transformative journey of Dr. Marvin Singh, an integrative gastroenterologist who believes in the power of nutritional genetics and gut health to achieve true wellness. Dr. Singh's Awakening: A medical doctor struggling with weight issues and early signs of fatty liver disease, Dr. Marvin Singh realized his lack of knowledge about nutrition. To bridge this gap, he pursued an integrative medicine fellowship, discovering a holistic approach that combines conventional methods with nutrition, genetics, and meditation. Within just three months of applying these principles to his life, he shed 40 pounds, a turning point that inspired his path towards helping others heal themselves. Understanding the Microbiome: Central to Dr. Singh's approach is the microbiome, the community of friendly bacteria in the gut. Supporting these beneficial bacteria is crucial for optimal well-being, as they influence hormone release and emotional well-being. Gut Health and Chronic Diseases: The gut houses 70% of the immune system and plays a vital role in protecting against chronic diseases and autoimmune conditions. Chronic inflammation, triggered by factors like diet, stress, and toxins, can lead to these conditions if left unchecked. The Power of Nutritional Genetics: Recognizing that everyone's gut composition is unique, Dr. Singh emphasizes the significance of nutritional genetics in tailoring individual healing approaches. Understanding your genes, microbiome, and food sensitivities helps identify the best-suited diet for you.

You probably remember that I released my book, "Food Heals: Physical, Emotional & Spiritual Stories to Nourish Your Soul and Transform Your Health" back in December 2019. It was an anthology filled with inspiring healing stories from amazing people, designed to show readers how our bodies can heal themselves when provided with the right tools. The plan was to kick off a book tour in March 2020 to connect with all of you, but as you can guess, fate had other plans. Just after my first book signing in Orlando, the world went into lockdown mode, and my entire book tour was canceled. It was heartbreaking, but I refused to let that be the end of the journey for "Food Heals" "Food Heals" is more than just a book to me. It's a passion project that resonates with my belief in the incredible power of healing through food. The book contains a collection of heartfelt stories that speak to the core of the human experience. Just like the beloved "Chicken Soup for the Soul" series, "Food Heals" touches upon the triumph of the human spirit over adversity, reminding us all that we are capable of remarkable healing. "Chicken Soup for the Vegan Soul" if you will ;) The pandemic threw a major curveball my way, and it felt like "Food Heals" didn't get the attention and promotion it deserved. But instead of dwelling on the disappointment, I decided to explore new ways to share the book's powerful message. That's when the idea of creating an audio version for Audible struck me, and I couldn't be more excited about it! Recording and editing the audio version of "Food Heals" has been an amazing journey. As I delve into each story, I feel a renewed sense of connection with the healing power they hold. I wanted to share this experience with all of you, Food Heals Nation, in the most intimate way possible. So, I decided to release each story free for you on The Food Heals Podcast. It's been a rollercoaster of emotions for me, recording and reliving each narrative, but it fills me with immense joy to do it. Every story is a testament to the strength of the human spirit and the miraculous healing that can occur when we nourish our bodies with the right tools. In this first "book club episode, I will read Chapters 1-4 of the book: Chapter 1: Turning Pain Into Purpose and Trauma Into Triumph By Allison Melody Chapter 2: What is a Food Heals Story? By Allison Melody Chapter 3: You Can Transform Helpless Health Struggles into Vibrant Life and Vitality By Dr. Stephen Cabral Chapter 4: If I Can Heal Myself, So Can You By Abby Phon Thank you for being a part of this beautiful journey with me!

In today's episode, we've got an exciting lineup of health segments you won't want to miss! I'll start off by sharing the most important health headlines of the week, including a new book by Darin Olien, co-host of the Netflix series Down to Earth with Zac Efron. The book is called Fatal Conveniences, and I'll be covering the top 5 safety tips to protect yourself from cell phone radiation. Then I'll discuss the importance of filtering your tap water. A recent study conducted by the US Geological Survey has revealed that almost half of the tap water in the US is contaminated with "forever chemicals" known as PFAS. These chemicals pose significant risks to human health. We'll be exploring how you can protect yourself by using carbon water filters, implementing detoxification strategies, and adopting a plant-based diet. Next, I'm excited to introduce our guest today, Sarah Merrill Hall (also a Nashville local so you'll be hearing from her lots!) If you're in need of some fun and relatable content to brighten up your day, you'll love Sarah's brand, Big Kid Problems. With a massive Instagram following of over half a million, Sarah brings humor and relatability to everyday struggles. Her mission is to help her followers embrace their imperfections, find laughter during tough times, and live their best lives. Sarah's content took a turn when she became a new mom! Enter the next era of Big Kid Problems with Bottle Service, a pregnancy and motherhood podcast. Sarah shares her experiences and insights, from her ultimate C-section recovery guide to candidly discussing her challenges with breastfeeding. Bottle Service is here to open up a new conversation surrounding motherhood. During our chat, Sarah and I cover various topics, including adulting, building her brand, her journey of becoming a first-time mom, and even dive into my favorite unhealthy reality obsession, the scandal that just won't die - Scandoval! And lastly, stick around until the end of the episode, where I'll be answering a listener question about foods that heal and help with hormones.

Ulcerative colitis is a chronic disease of the large intestine, wherein the lining of the colon becomes inflamed and develops small open sores, known as ulcers. The symptoms associated with this condition can be painful and debilitating, as our guests will vividly share today. Currently, Western medicine focuses on managing symptoms through medication. However, did you know that many individuals are successfully healing themselves of this chronic condition through dietary changes? It's true. And today, I have the pleasure of introducing three guests who have achieved exactly that - they have healed themselves through the power of plants. First up, we have Vince Lia. Vince was told by two different doctors that his ulcerative colitis would never truly disappear, even with medication. To add to the confusion, they also advised him not to consume vegetables. Does that make any sense? Vince didn't think so either. You won't believe what he did next! Next, we have Nicole Davidsohn. When Nicole was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis, she believed things couldn't get any worse. However, she then experienced a traumatic brain injury, leading to months of pain, medication, and fatigue. Nicole was on the brink of giving up... until she discovered a plant-based food that miraculously helped her heal both her colitis and her brain injury simultaneously! Then she even used it to heal her pup! This is one story you don't want to miss! And finally, we have Lean Green Dad, Cory Warren. Cory's wife was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis just six months before their wedding. They made the bold decision to completely change their lifestyle and adopt a plant-based diet to heal her condition, resulting in incredible outcomes for the entire family. You need to hear their inspiring story! These stories and more are featured on this episode of Food Heals. Stay tuned as we explore the profound impact of plant-based nutrition on the lives of our guests and discover the transformative power of food in healing and reversing chronic disease.

Throughout the years we have heard some crazy, sometimes shocking stories on Food Heals and this is the third installment of our shocking series. Last time you heard from Milo Runkle and Cody Carlson, two undercover investigators for Mercy for Animals who were able to shed light on animal cruelty and continue to fight to change the laws around animal abuse on factory farms. And today, we have two incredible guests sharing their stories of healing through the power of food and lifestyle changes. Our first guest is John Salley, a former NBA player turned vegan activist and restaurant owner. You may know him from his basketball career, but what you may not know is how he used a vegan diet and colonics to heal himself from high cholesterol and a compacted colon. John's journey to health inspired him to help others, including our second guest, Megan Brophy. Megan's story is truly amazing. Despite feeling healthy and energetic while living on a diet of burgers and junk food, her chance meeting with John Salley changed her life. After going vegan and making major lifestyle changes, Megan discovered her body was full of parasites, causing severe acne and other health issues. With perseverance and a parasite cleanse, Megan's skin cleared up and she continues to thrive on her healing journey. Both John and Megan offer incredible insight into the power of nutrition and lifestyle changes to transform our health and wellbeing.

In today's episode of Food Heals, you'll hear from two incredible undercover investigators from Mercy For Animals who endured witnessing animal cruelty to shed a light on animal abuse and change the laws around factory farming.  In our first clip we hear from Mercy For Animals Undercover Investigator, Cody Carlson. Cody heard about Mercy For Animals when he was a private investigator for a business intelligence firm. Moved by their work, he reached out to the founder, Milo (Nathan) Runkle. Before he knew it, Cody had quit his job, grown a goatee and become an undercover animal rights investigator. It was a wild ride. Working undercover as a farm hand is exhausting physical work and emotionally intense. He witnessed how over 4,000 cows were kept constantly pregnant, saw newborn calves torn from their mothers and left to die, or sold for slaughter. He saw how much the animals wanted to play, to be loved. His footage of workers' cruelty and the atrocities committed in the farm was broadcast by the media and resulted in legislation that changed how these animals are treated. And that was it. He was hooked. He went to law school and is now one of Mercy for Animal's attorneys. In our second clip, we hear from the Founder of Mercy For Animals, Milo Runkle. Milo grew up on a farm in a small town. At 15 years old, after witnessing the brutal murder of a piglet, he founded Mercy for Animals. He started by carrying out open rescues: going into farms' undercover and rescuing injured animals. Trawling through manure pits, witnessing first-hand the cruel conditions, and investigating the horror of slaughterhouses made him even more determined to give animals a voice and drive positive change in the world.

Power Quotes From The Show Microbiome As a Dynamic Ecosystem "Because the microbiome is so unique people think that they need something individualized for them otherwise there's no hope of changing it. It's actually not true. It's a very dynamic ecosystem and it's highly personalized. There're dietary recommendations that would be the same for everyone." - Raja Dhir Optimizing Gut Microbiome "Everyone's optimizing for something else. Everyone has different methods and until everyone's looking at the same information set, using the same methods, it's really hard to compare the quality of different data sets. The better way to do it is to functionally understand what your microbiome is doing. Is it making a lot of organic acids? Does it have a lot of organisms that have genes that we know are positive for fiber degradation or converting dietary nutrients or are inflammatory or help to rebuild the gut barrier? This is the level that we're at. We're looking at really clear features and trying to look at the prevalence of those features in different people vs their absence in others." - Raja Dhir Healthy Bowel Movement "Most people just learn over life to cope and assume that bowel movement an irregular, unpredictable, and even potentially something that requires force. You should have little to no strain, ease of expulsion, manageable to no amounts of persistent gas, you shouldn't have bloating, and you shouldn't have many sensitivities to diverse plant matters, especially roughage. If you go through that simple checklist and then compare that to the Bristol stool chart, and see your stool quality coming out (the color, the shape, the texture, the hydration( those are your best indicators. Anything that you do beyond that is about optimizing. This is the day-to-day thing you should ask yourself because that's your first signal for how the whole system is functioning." - Raja Dhir Links From Today's Show  Seed - 35% off your first month's supply of DS-01 Daily Synbiotic with code "JOSH" Mind Pump Media Ara Katz Paul Chek Shop the Wellness Force Media Store Organifi – Special 20% off to our listeners with the code ‘WELLNESSFORCE' breathwork.io BON CHARGE - Save 15% with the code "JOSH15" MANNA Vitality - Save 20% with the code "JOSH20" Mendi.io - Save 20% with the code "JOSH20" Cured Nutrition CBD - Save 20% with the CODE "WELLNESSFORCE" PLUNGE – Save $150 with the code “WELLNESSFORCE" LiftMode - Save 10% with the code "JOSH10" Organifi – Special 20% off to our listeners with the code ‘WELLNESSFORCE' HVMN - Get 20% off your Ketone IQ order with the code "JOSH" MitoZen – Save 10% with the code “WELLNESSFORCE” Paleovalley – Save 15% on your ACV Complex with the code ‘JOSH' NOOTOPIA - Save 10% with the code "JOSH10" ActivationProducts – Save 20% with the code “WELLNESSFORCE” NEUVANA - Save 15% with the code “WELLNESSFORCE” SENSATE - Save $25 on your order with the code "JOSH25" DRY FARM WINES - Get an extra bottle of Pure Natural Wine with your order for just 1¢ ION - Save 15% off sitewide with the code ‘JOSH1KS' Feel Free from Botanic Tonics – Save $40 when you use the code ‘WELLNESS40′ Drink LMNT – Zero Sugar Hydration: Get your free LMNT Sample Pack, with any purchase BREATHE - Save 20% by using the code “PODCAST20” Essential Oil Wizardry: Save 10% with the code ‘WELLNESSFORCE' NEUROHACKER - Save 15% with the code "WELLNESSFORCE" ALIVE WATER - Save 33% on your first order with the code "JOSH33" M21 Wellness Guide Wellness + Wisdom Community Leave Wellness + Wisdom a review on Apple Podcasts Raja Dhir Instagram Facebook Twitter About Raja Dhir A life sciences entrepreneur, Raja Dhir has unique expertise in translating scientific research including scaling up both facultative and strict anaerobic organisms.
