For women who care about their health and are already paying attention to what they put in their bodies, skincare should be straightforward. It is not — because the information online is loud, contradictory, and often more driven by fear than evidence. In this episode, triple board-certified dermatologist Dr. Mamina Turegano cuts through all of it: the sunscreen myths, the ingredient fears, the products not worth spending money on, and what your skin actually needs to stay healthy long-term. Dr. Mamina Turegano is a triple board-certified dermatologist, internist, and dermatopathologist based in New Orleans — one of the only physicians in the country who holds all three certifications. She specializes in medical, cosmetic, and integrative dermatology, blending conventional and holistic approaches to skin health. With over 2 million followers across social media, she co-hosts the Skin Deep MDs podcast, has been published in leading medical journals, and brings the same evidence-based, no-fearmongering approach to everything she touches. What's Discussed: The one skincare step that outperforms everything else — and why consistency is the only metric that matters   SPF 30 vs. SPF 50 vs. SPF 100 — what the actual coverage difference is, what Dr. Mamina recommends for daily use, and the honest answer to "which sunscreen is best"   What three separate board certifications give Dr. Mamina that a standard dermatologist cannot offer — and why the internist lens changes how she reads skin from the inside out   The skincare categories you never need to spend money on — cleansers, moisturizers, and sunscreen do not need to be expensive   The face-washing take that would make most of the internet mad — and why she stands by it completely   What stress does to your skin at a biological level: cortisol, oil composition, inflammation, and why the cascade matters for women who are chronically under load   The benzene-in-sunscreen scare of 2022 — what actually happened, what the levels meant in context, and why the fear grew bigger than the evidence warranted   The sunscreen-causes-skin-cancer myth — debunked, with the ice cream and shark bites analogy that puts it in perspective   Chemical vs. mineral sunscreen: the endocrine disruption concern, what the animal studies actually show, and who should consider switching to zinc-based   Why sunscreen does not cause low vitamin D — and what is actually driving the low vitamin D epidemic   Toxic and problematic skincare ingredients — what to look for and what to avoid   Bacne and skin issues specific to women who train   Fungal breakouts — how to tell the difference from bacterial acne and what to do about it   What movement does for your skin at a cellular level   The link between metabolic health and skin   Ready for coaching that builds around your training and your health?

Orchids are the botanical poster children for plant-fungi interactions. Every orchid has a close relationship with at least one species of orchid. Understanding how these relationships play out from orchid roots and across ecosystems is key to orchid understanding and conservation. Joining us to talk about the complexity of understanding these relationships is Dr. Melissa McCormick of the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center and the North American Orchid Conservation Center. Listen in and learn about what it takes to study orchids and their fungi and how that knowledge improves orchid conservation efforts.

Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows!   This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track!   Check out today's questions:    Mohamed: Good morning dr.cabral. Thanks for all you do. Ive been a regularly viewer of your podcast and your work along with Equilife is incredible. 2 part question, regarding your website with all your research into cancer. Not asking for medical advice but I'm wondering about the "Budwig recipe", apparently mixing Organic cold-pressed flax oil along with cottage cheese is great breakfast to support. What are your opinions on it? rich cottage cheese with omega-3-rich flaxseed oil, aiming to improve cellular oxygenation and overall fat metabolism is what I understood? Also have you or any of your wellness clients had any anecdotal good experiences with it? Or with the famous Ivermectin       Lisa: Hello Dr. Cabral, Thank you for providing such helpful information. Your podcasts about finding the root cause of disease resonate with me because I am studying naturopathic medicine and want to help my family and others uncover the causes of their health concerns. I am in my late 40s, a single mom to a 4 year old, and know in my soul this is where I am meant to be. However, I am exhausted balancing full-time work as a sonographer, motherhood, school, my health, and a toxic work environment. I have considered selling my house, moving closer to family, and taking a year away from work to focus on school. What advice would you give someone considering such a major change and financial risk while trying to protect her health and her child's stability? Thank You, Lisa       Anonymous: Hi Dr. Cabral! My husband has been struggling with rosacea on his face and what looks like a fungal over growth on his back. Both are getting worse and damaging his confidence. Heat is a big trigger. Lots of lifestyle tweaks are needed. He drinks beer multiple times a week, consumes a less than ideal diet outside our home. He eats well at home, works out every day. He's reluctant to invest the time and effort to heal himself. He's done the big 5 in the past but did not follow the plan very closely and then went right back to the way he was living previously. I would love your thoughts and will kindly pass them along. I know I can't want his healing more than he does. I'd also like to ask for prayers from you and the community that he changes his heart and pursues his best self. Thanks!       Matt: Hi Dr. Cabral, thanks for all you do. I have seen opinions that taking psyllium husk too close to medications will make them less effective because of the slowed absorption. I believe you add it to your morning smoothie, so I am assuming you disagree with this opinion since you would not take consume psyllium and have it affect the vitamins and nutrients in your smoothie. Would love to hear your thoughts. Thank you       Sienna: Hi Dr Cabral! I've searched the podcast archive & been through just hair loss research & personal journey but wanted to get hour thoughts on reversing alopecia. Late onset.. looks more like male pattern balding then complete alopecia. 51 yo male, had hair when he was younger. Very little on body, some on head. Is it possible to regrow? I listened to your episode on the regrowth breakthrough "waking up dead hair follicles…" would this work with Alopecia? If you couldn't lab test… would you say it's possible to reverse & regrow and what would you do….. since yours was more linked to stress/virus? Would so appreciate your thoughts… as you've shared (almost) anything is reversible…… Thank you as always, Sienna      Thank you for tuning into today's Cabral HouseCall and be sure to check back tomorrow where we answer more of our community's questions!      - - - Show Notes and Resources: StephenCabral.com/3858 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?

In this short podcast episode, Bryan and Roman Baugh talk about indoor air quality and microbial control, specifically MERV 15 filter physics and how it all works when bringing in outdoor air. We filter indoor air to keep dust and particles off the equipment and keep them from circulating through the air. However, we also need to filter fresh air. While indoor air has several pollutants, including dust and VOCs, that make outdoor air dilution a sensible solution, outdoor air also has spores and other pollutants we want to filter out, and its quality can be hard to evaluate. Roman had an ERV that fed his VRF system, and it had significant microbial growth inside; he had some MERV 6 filtration on it, but that didn't capture particles effectively enough. MERV ratings measure the ability to filter particles out, and we use a unit called microns to measure particle size; higher ratings indicate a greater filter surface area and a better ability to filter out smaller particles. ASHRAE 52.2 divides particles into three categories: E1 (ultra-fine particles between 0.3 and 1 micron in diameter), E2 (fine particles between 1 and 3 microns), and E3 (coarse particles between 3 and 10 microns in diameter). MERV 15 filters have a 90% capture rate of E2 particles and a 90%+ capture rate of E3 particles. Fungal spores tend to fall in the E2 or E3 category, and filtration can keep those from coming into the home with fresh air; bringing in fresh air to dilute indoor pollutants is good, but we need a nuanced approach, and good filtration (without bypass) is part of that equation. Filters can also capture much smaller particles due to the way those particles move. Smaller particles move via Brownian motion, which makes them move erratically and more likely to collide with filter media. However, filter use and design, as well as fresh air intake location, can also affect filter efficacy. Filters that don't fit well in the slot enable bypass, and some filters might be restrictive. Exhaust ventilation outlets also play a role, as wind can bring those pollutants back to fresh air intakes.   Have a question that you want us to answer on the podcast?

In this July Seed Chat, Greg Peterson, Bill McDorman, and Landen Schaelling explore how compost, fungi, microbial life, and living plant roots work together to build healthier soil. Landen explains why keeping plants growing is more important for long-term soil carbon than simply adding organic matter, and why fungal-rich compost can help store the carbon plants produce. The conversation covers cover crops, composting methods, curing, moisture, carbon-to-nitrogen ratios, chop-and-drop, crimping, and compost extracts. Our Guests: Landen Schaelling is the founder of Sacred Soil Solutions. He is focused on bringing optimal and approachable microbe inputs to gardeners and homesteaders, while also teaching farmers in the American West how to implement soil building solutions at scale.And Bill McDorman has committed his life to community-based seed stewardship. In 1984, he started Seeds Trust High Altitude Gardens, a bioregional mail order seed company that he ran for 28 years. He authored the book Basic Seed Saving in 1994, and in 2010 Bill and his wife, Belle Starr, founded Seed School.Key Topics Compost and soil healthFungal-dominant compostSoil food webCover crops and living rootsRhizophagy cycleMicrobial fermentationsLiquid carbon and soil carbon storageThermophilic compostingJohnson-Su compostingBokashiCarbon-to-nitrogen ratiosChop-and-drop and crimpingCompost curing and moistureLanden Schaelling / Sacred Soil SolutionsKey Questions AnsweredWhy are living plants more important than simply adding compost for long-term soil improvement?Living plants act as the soil's “income earners,” putting liquid carbon into the soil through their roots. Compost can support that system, but keeping roots in the ground is what continually feeds the soil food web. What makes compost truly valuable?The goal isn't simply the solid organic material. High-quality compost provides a living community of fungi and other soil food web organisms that can interact with plant roots and help store plant-derived carbon. How can you encourage fungal growth in compost?Landen recommends a high-carbon pile, roughly 60–70% carbon, along with consistent moisture. Chunkier wood chips can help encourage fungal activity, and the compost needs a long curing period for the microbial community to develop. How long should compost cure?After the heating phase, Landen recommends roughly nine to 12 months of curing with consistent moisture around 50–60%. He describes seeing a significant increase in fungi, protozoa, and other soil food web organisms as the compost matures. Should compost be sifted?Landen strongly recommends against sifting mature compost because it adds oxygen, dries the material, and can damage fungal hyphae. The living organisms on the compost matter more than producing a perfectly fine, crumbly product. Can weeds function as cover crops?Some weeds can contribute positively when they are temporarily left growing, but not all weeds provide the same benefits. Landen specifically notes that context matters and that some weeds can be less supportive of fungal relationships. What is the difference between chop-and-drop and crimping?Chop-and-drop can create a rapid release of nitrogen, while crimping breaks the stems without completely severing them, allowing nutrients to move more slowly into the root system. Either approach works best when another crop is ready to capture the released nutrients. How often should microbial fermentation sprays be applied?Landen says plants can benefit from very frequent, even daily, applications because they respond well to small amounts delivered consistently. However, he emphasizes that less frequent applications can still provide significant benefits when time is limited. What should consumers look for when buying compost?Landen recommends asking compost producers for microscope analysis. He argues that microscopy provides important evidence about the biological quality of the finished compost. Episode HighlightsLiving plants, not dead organic matter, are the primary “income earners” that build soil carbon.Cover crops keep roots in the ground and continually support the soil food web.Fungal-rich compost helps capture and store the carbon produced by plants.A compost pile with roughly 60–70% carbon can encourage strong fungal development.Thermophilic composting is only part of the process; long-term curing is critical.Maintaining 50–60% moisture for nine to 12 months allows fungi and other soil organisms to develop.Sifting compost can damage fungal hyphae and reduce biological quality.Crimping can provide a slower nutrient release than chop-and-drop.The goal of compost is not simply decomposition—it is developing and applying microbial life.A fungally dominant compost can be extracted into water and applied directly rather than aerated like a bacterial tea.

Matthew runs Cottage Pastures on 26 acres in Switzerland County, Indiana, raising pigs, chickens, cattle, and sheep alongside garlic and herbs - everything sold under the name is raised on the farm itself. He and his wife bought the property in 2022 and built it up from a homesteading project into a full working farm. Our conversation centers on garlic: despite ideal growing conditions across the Midwest, most garlic sold in the U.S. is imported, and a soil-borne fungal disease can make land unable to grow garlic for 20 to 40 years once it takes hold. This is a risk Cottage Pastures is now soil-testing to get ahead of. We talk through how the farm accidentally ended up growing 20-plus garlic varieties, why the economics of commodity crops crowd out specialty ones like garlic, and what it costs to raise and ship chicken nationwide as a direct-to-consumer farm. Matthew also gets into why pre-orders rather than outside financing keep the farm's cash flow working, how he decides what to raise or cut as the operation grows, and what it looks like to raise kids alongside farm work without compelling them to help.Key topics:- Why most U.S. garlic and herbs are imported despite favorable growing conditions- A soil-borne fungal disease that can end garlic production on a piece of land for decades- How Cottage Pastures accidentally became a 20-plus variety garlic farm- The real cost of raising and processing chicken for direct-to-consumer sale- Grass-fed and grass-finished labeling: domestic vs. imported- Deciding what to raise, expand, or cut as the farm scales- Raising kids on the farm without compelling their help- Plans for a 2027 regional farm-share model in Cincinnati/LouisvilleTimestamps0:00 – Intro + catch-up, farm rebrand to Cottage Pastures 2:30 – Why the family moved to Switzerland County, Indiana 15:00 – Daily schedule: full-time job plus farm work 19:00 – Garlic harvest race against incoming rain 27:00 – Cost of shipping meat nationwide 31:00 – Why most U.S. herbs and garlic are imported 44:00 – How the farm ended up with 20-plus garlic varieties 48:00 – Fungal disease risk and soil testing plans 58:00 – Real cost of raising and processing chicken 1:07:00 – Grass-fed and grass-finished: domestic vs. imported 1:12:00 – Deciding what to raise, expand, or cut 1:16:00 – Plans for a 2027 regional farm-share program 1:19:00 – Raising kids on the farm 1:26:00 – Closing thoughts on local food and staying hopefulLinks:https://cottagepastures.com/about/https://www.instagram.com/cottagepastures/https://www.facebook.com/CottagePastures/?ref=PROFILE_EDIT_xav_ig_profile_page_web#https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/episode-6-interview-with-carissa-a-year-in-review/id1700604702?i=1000628016269The Regenaissance Podcast explores the people, farms, and ideas rebuilding our food system from the ground up.

UDOT closes major Southern Utah highway "indefinitely" after flash floods -- USU receives fungal research grant with cancer fighting potential -- Utah lightning fatality data

Recorded live from the IFNA World Congress in Australia, we sat down with physician and Dr. Jonathan Chejfec of the Mexican Federation of Colleges of Anesthesiology to examine one of the most significant patient safety events in recent anesthesia history. Together, they explore how healthcare can move from blame to learning, why human factors matter, and what organizations everywhere can do to build safer systems before tragedy occurs. Here's some of what you'll hear in this episode:

Cannabis legalization in Canada was meant to bring transparency, consistency, and safety to a rapidly growing industry. Products sold through regulated channels are tested, packaged, and monitored under strict federal rules. For many consumers, especially medical patients, that regulatory seal offers reassurance that the product they are using has been carefully vetted for health risks. But new research at McGill University suggests that potentially harmful fungal toxins can persist in cannabis products even after they undergo standard decontamination processes and meet existing regulatory thresholds. Their findings raise important questions about whether current definitions of cannabis safety are sufficient to protect consumers, particularly those in higher-risk groups.

Listen Now to 015 WTFUture Watch 015 WTFUture First up on this week’s  radar is the  world of health and ultrasonics, featuring Midjourney’s pivot from AI image generation to building sci-fi-esque sonic body scanners that use ultrasound to precisely map your organs while you chill in a San Francisco luxury spa. We then check out how scientists are using optogenetics to give awake mice the restorative, brain-cleaning benefits of deep sleep, potentially revolutionizing how we “recharge” our bodies, potentially without the need for sleep as we understand it today,  Add in Meta’s new screenless XR glasses, humanoid robots gaining advanced “safety stacks” to keep them from accidentally acting like bulls in a china shop, and the looming arrival of “Q-day”—when quantum computers become so advanced they can crack all global cryptography and solve multivariable universe problems instantly—and you’ve got a week of news that sounds straight out of sci-fi..  But our near future is also about tapping into the Earth’s natural quantum networks! We look at how animals might be using  telepathy to communicate, imagining birds tuning into universal flight frequencies and dolphins using their own built-in ultrasonic sonar vision. We also dig into the hidden, 110-quadrillion-kilometer fungal network under our feet that acts as a vast biological super highway system, peacefully trading water, nutrients and solar energy with plants. To top it all off, the conversation rockets into orbit with SpaceX’s new “Starfall” flying saucer system designed to gracefully retrieve items from space, before coming back down to Earth to discuss “Disclosure Day.” We encourage you to steer America’s upcoming July 4th narrative toward an ascension of consciousness and “heaven on earth,” rather than falling for alien fear-mongering and doomsday plots, for truly, it is up to you.. Enjoy..

Fungal acne is everywhere on social media, but most people are treating it completely wrong. In this episode of The Skin Real, Dr. Mary Alice Mina breaks down what fungal acne actually is: an overgrowth of malassezia yeast, not bacteria, and not true acne at all. She explains why standard acne treatments often fail, who's most at risk (think sweaty workouts, humid climates, tight clothing, and recent antibiotic use), and how to tell it apart from regular acne by looking at itch, uniformity, and the absence of blackheads or whiteheads. Dr. Mina walks through her go-to over-the-counter arsenal, including antifungal shampoos, sulfur washes, salicylic acid, and niacinamide, plus when it's time to see a dermatologist for prescription-strength options. She also shares the daily habits that keep flares from coming back.

Episode 376 For the first time, scientists have mapped Earth's vast underground fungal network - and it's bigger than anyone imagined. Beneath our feet, plants and fungi have a hidden symbiotic relationship, sharing nutrients through fine fungal threads called hyphae. With these new global maps, we're now starting to understand just how important the mycorrhizal network is in keeping the Earth's climate stable - including the extent of the carbon it draws down. But the ecosystems where these networks exist are being stripped back for agriculture and damaged by fungicides - so how can we protect them? To explore this topic, Rowan Hooper is joined by some of the researchers behind the project - Toby Kiers, Tom Shimizu and Merlin Sheldrake.

Most of the mushroom supplements you'll find on Amazon are ground-up fruiting bodies or myceliated grain in a capsule. AHCC is something entirely different. It's a patented fermented extract from shiitake mycelia that has been used in over 1,000 cancer clinics worldwide, backed by more than 100 published studies, and studied specifically for its effects on natural killer cells, HPV clearance, autoimmune conditions, and liver disease. I'd never heard of it until Mimi Lindquist introduced me to it. Lindquist is the co-founder of The Medicine alongside her husband, Chase. She started as a clinical dental hygienist in Seattle, where she observed firsthand how oral health mirrors systemic health, and eventually followed a thread from a patient's HPV recovery all the way to a research compound developed at the University of Tokyo in 1986. In this episode, Lindquist explains what AHCC actually is, how its manufacturing process makes it fundamentally different from any other mushroom product on the market, and why the clinical research behind it is unusually robust for a supplement. The mechanism that makes AHCC interesting is that it doesn't just boost the immune system indiscriminately. It modulates it. For healthy individuals with normal NK cell counts, it doesn't artificially raise them. For people dealing with HPV, cancerous tumors, or autoimmune conditions where the immune system needs more information, it does. This adaptogenic quality is why AHCC can support both an overactive immune response (as in autoimmune) and an underactive one (as in immune suppression from chronic illness or aging) without contradicting itself. I pushed back on this in the conversation because AHCC is a processed product that requires industrial manufacturing to produce, which doesn't fit neatly into an ancestral framework. Lindquist's response was honest: if we were living 100 years ago without microplastics, glyphosate in the rain, and the chronic stress loads of modern life, we probably wouldn't need it. But that's not the world we live in, and the thousands of testimonials she's received from people who had tried everything else and found relief with AHCC are hard to dismiss. Dosing is two capsules daily for general immune support, four for conditions like HPV, Lyme, or autoimmune, and six to eight for serious situations like tumors or advanced liver disease. Their product, Immune Intel AHCC, uses 750 milligrams per capsule with nothing else added. About Mimi Lindquist:  Meagan (Mimi) Lindquist is the co-founder of The Medicin, alongside her husband Chase. With her background as a clinical dental hygienist, culinary nutrition guide, and AHCC educator, she has been helping others prevent disease for over 12 years. Now, Mimi has dedicated herself entirely to sharing the benefits of Immune Intel AHCC, a mushroom supplement unlike any other, to as many people as possible.

Told donor eggs after failed IVF? There is a category of testing that your fertility clinic does not run. We rarely run a stool test and find nothing. The IVF cycle did not work. Maybe it was poor response. Maybe it was canceled before retrieval. Maybe you got embryos and they arrested. Maybe the transfer failed. Your clinic looked at your numbers and told you donor eggs. In this episode, Sarah Clark walks through the gut pattern the Fab Fertile team sees in women who come to us after failed IVF with a donor egg recommendation, and why this pattern changes the picture before the next decision. What this episode covers: H. pylori. One of the most common findings in the women who come to us after failed IVF. It impairs absorption of iron, vitamin B12, and zinc, the nutrients that affect egg quality, thyroid function, and hormone production. It is passed back and forth between partners through saliva. If you have it, there is a strong chance your partner has it too. Parasites, giardia, blastocystis. Common findings. Rarely tested at the fertility clinic. Bacterial overgrowth, including streptococcus. Fungal overgrowth and dysbiosis. The reason chasing an anti-candida diet without testing moves you in circles. Elevated calprotectin. A signal of gut inflammation, often present in women with IBD, Crohn's, colitis, and women with no formal diagnosis. Elevated zonulin. A marker of intestinal permeability. The pattern we see after rounds of antibiotics, sinus infections, UTIs, birth control, and high stress. Why this matters before a donor egg decision: H. pylori impairs iron absorption. Ferritin reads low or low-normal. The clinic says iron is fine because the lab range starts around 15. The fertility-optimized range is closer to 50. Iron is foundational to egg quality. The oxygen carrying capacity to your follicles depends on it. B12 affects methylation, the process your body uses to produce the co-factors needed for egg maturation. Zinc affects ovulation and progesterone production. Chronic gut inflammation affects ovarian response to stimulation, implantation, and miscarriage risk. When your clinic looks at a canceled cycle, arrested embryos, or a failed transfer and recommends donor eggs, they are responding to the outcome. They are not asking what is driving the outcome. This episode is for the woman sitting with a donor egg recommendation who is not ready to agree before she understands what was actually evaluated.

It walks through the markers we review before a donor egg recommendation, including the thyroid panel, the iron panel with the fertility target, the gut testing your REI does not order, the inflammatory markers, and the male side.

Mason Fox was 10 years old when he was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia in April of 2023. Mason then went through treatment and was doing very well with his recovery before a Fungal infection got the best of him quickly in February of 2024, and led to his surprising and unfortunate passing, not even 10 full months past his original diagnosis. His parents Leslie and Michael detail the amazing persona that Mason had as he was most concerned with helping others even during treatment for this blood cancer, as he bought toys with his own money and would walk down the halls at St. Joseph's Children's Hospital with these toys in a wagon, hooked up to his IV pole, and would deliver them to the other Pediatric Cancer patients on his floor.

In this Episode Christopher Parker shares his lifelong journey into mycology, rooted in growing up in the forests of Western North Carolina and decades of hands-on experience. He explains how fungi underpins life on Earth, drives soil fertility, and plays a critical role in regenerative agriculture. The conversation explores low-tech mushroom cultivation, indigenous ecological knowledge, and how working with fungi can create resilient, localized food systems. Christopher also highlights practical ways to grow mushrooms, restore ecosystems, and build livelihoods rooted in land stewardship.Our Guest: Christopher Parker is a member of the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians, he is a farmer, educator, and myco-culture keeper with over 30 years of experience in Indigenous regenerative agriculture and mushroom cultivation. He co-founded The Forest Farmacy, an Indigenous-led mushroom school rooted in the Cherokee homeland of Western North Carolina. Chris teaches applied eco-mycology—weaving traditional forest-tending knowledge with modern cultivation science to heal ecosystems and strengthen food sovereignty. His work centers on low-tech, scalable cultivation that transforms farm and forest byproducts into gourmet and medicinal mushrooms. Through his teaching and mentorship, he helps farmers and land stewards create ecologically sound, culturally rooted, and economically resilient livelihoods.Key Topics & EntitiesChristopher ParkerIndigenous regenerative agricultureMushroom cultivation (low-tech and scalable)Mycology and soil microbiologyMycorrhizal fungi (ecto & endo)Food sovereignty and local food systemsForest farming and ecosystem restorationTrichoderma and soil regenerationKorean Natural Farming (KNF)Biochar and microbial inoculationMushroom cultivation on logs and sawdustThe Forest FarmacyThe Mycelial Healer (book)Radical Mycology (book by Peter McCoy)Key Questions AnsweredWhy does fungi matter in soil and regenerative agriculture?Fungi act as the “underground economy,” moving nutrients, water, and minerals between soil and plants. They unlock nutrients already present in the soil, reducing or eliminating the need for external fertilizers.Can healthy soil eliminate the need for fertilizers?Yes. When fungal and microbial life is balanced, natural processes provide nutrients to plants, dramatically reducing inputs and allowing nature to do the heavy lifting.How do mushrooms actually grow and function?The visible mushroom is only the fruiting body. Most of the organism exists as mycelium within logs or soil, breaking down organic matter and cycling nutrients.What is a simple way to start growing mushrooms?Low-tech methods like inoculating logs, pasteurizing straw, or using simple heat sources can produce mushrooms without expensive equipment.How can mushroom cultivation support regenerative farming?Spent mushroom substrates and even contaminated batches can be repurposed to build soil biology, suppress pathogens, and enhance fertility.What role does observation play in successful growing?Careful observation of natural systems—like how fungi interact with insects, trees, and decay—reveals cultivation insights that can outperform conventional methods.What are common failures in mushroom cultivation?Certain species like maitake and chicken of the woods are difficult to grow on logs using standard methods. Understanding their natural ecology can unlock success.How can farmers integrate fungi into their systems?By using local fungi, building soil biology, and incorporating techniques like KNF and biochar inoculation, farmers can regenerate land while producing food.Episode HighlightsFungi and bacteria underpin all life on EarthMushrooms are just the “fruit”—most life is hidden as myceliumHealthy soil biology can eliminate fertilizer needsLow-tech mushroom growing is accessible to anyoneContaminated mushroom bags can regenerate soil via biocharObservation of nature led to breakthroughs in cultivation methodsIndigenous knowledge and modern science can work togetherStart small, learn deeply, and scale graduallyCalls to Action & ResourcesThe Forest Farmacy — https://theforestfarmacy.comChristopher's Book: The Mycelial Healer — Available via Chelsea Green PublishingCourse — Year-long mushroom cultivation program HEREChristophers Book Recommendation -  Paul Stamets, Growing Gourmet Medicinal Mushrooms and  Radical Mycology by Peter McCoyShow Notes — https://urbanfarm.org/forestfarmacyVisit www.urbanfarm.org/ForestFarmacy for the show notes on this episode, and access to our full podcast library!

324: What's happening to our soil and ultimately our food, and why are the nutrients depleted from the produce, meat, and dairy we consume today? It all starts with the soil - and when the soil is stripped, so is our food. If you've ever wondered what the term "regenerative" means when you see it on a food label, Josh Tickell explains it, and shares what we should be looking for at the grocery store to make those choices easier as consumers. Topics Discussed:→ What is regenerative farming?→ GMO vs. hybrid produce→ Does going vegan help reduce water waste or increase it?→ Fungal-dominant soil vs. bacterial-dominant soil→ How to test our soil→ Food labels and the rise of regenerative labeling As always, if you have any questions for the show please email us at digestthispod@gmail.com.
