This Omni Talk Retail Fast Five segment tackles Kroger's Q1 fiscal 2026 earnings, where the grocery giant posted $46.1 billion in total sales and announced that its e-commerce business turned a profit for the very first time, ahead of schedule. Chris Walton and Jenn Hahn give credit where it's due, but push back hard on the feel-good narrative. With identical sales missing expectations, e-commerce growth lagging the broader market surge discussed in the previous headline, and CEO Ron Ferens admitting that only two out of five stores are in very good condition, the duo asks whether Kroger's digital milestone is a genuine turning point or a shiny distraction from deeper operational challenges. They also weigh in on what a real turnaround looks like, how much runway a new CEO deserves, and why the store experience still has to be at the center of any recovery story. ⏩ Tune in for the full episode here: https://youtu.be/k2JviUlR0-Q

The receptor that switches off your appetite on a GLP-1 drug is the same one wired into your reward circuitry, your hormones, and your blood vessels, which means when you turn down hunger, something else may be getting turned down too, and for most people taking these drugs, nobody ever checked.In this solo episode, Dr. Gabrielle Lyon discusses:Why the same drug class can improve sexual function in men with obesity while potentially dampening it in lean or postmenopausal women — and why the deciding factor isn't the drug, it's the bodyHow rapid weight loss raises SHBG, the protein that soaks up free testosterone, so a "normal" total testosterone result can hide a real deficit your bloodwork won't flagWhy women make up 60–70% of GLP-1 prescriptions yet the entire evidence base for female sexual function is two case reports, with zero validated questionnaires in any pivotal trialThe three-tier action plan for anyone on or about to start a GLP-1 — baseline your sexual function first, get free testosterone tested, and protect muscle with protein and resistance trainingWhether you're on a GLP-1 drug or considering one, you'll walk away knowing exactly what to measure before you start and what to watch for after — so a change in your sexual health gets caught as the vital sign it is, instead of being quietly dismissed.Thank you to our sponsors:Cozy Earth - Go to https://bit.ly/44qcXtu for up to 20% off!

Most "healthy" drinks aren't what they claim—and your body feels it long before you realize why. In this episode, Justine Reichman sits down with entrepreneur Bryan Appio, founder of Dry Water, to unpack what really happens when you start paying attention to what's inside your hydration. After losing everything during the pandemic, Bryan hit a breaking point that forced him to rethink his health from the ground up—leading to a product built on transparency, not shortcuts. They dive into the hidden truth behind "natural flavors," why most electrolyte drinks are loaded with sugar or unnecessary salt, and how the wellness industry often prioritizes profit over clarity. But more importantly, this conversation shifts how you think about everyday choices: what you drink, how you fuel your body, and why simplicity might be the most powerful upgrade you can make. This episode will change the way you read labels—and the way you take care of yourself. Key Takeaways: Why "natural flavors" can hide dozens of unknown ingredients The real problem with most electrolyte and hydration drinks How small daily habits impact long-term health Why clean, simple ingredients matter more than marketing claims The mindset shift that turns failure into your next breakthrough If you've ever felt tired without knowing why—or questioned what's really in your food and drinks—this conversation will hit home. Meet Bryan:  Bryan Appio is the founder and CEO of Dry Water, a next-generation hydration company committed to clean ingredients, transparency, and everyday wellness. A lifelong entrepreneur, Bryan previously built and exited an early staffing "gig economy" model, before redirecting his focus to health and sustainability after the pandemic exposed his own gaps in nutrition and hydration. Motivated by personal health challenges and a deep frustration with misleading "natural flavor" claims and sugar-laden sports drinks, Bryan spent years reverse-engineering the hydration category. He developed Dry Water as a daily wellness solution built on real fruit, plant-based ingredients, zero sugar, and no artificial additives, designed to support gut, brain, and metabolic health while minimizing reliance on pills and highly processed products. Under his leadership, Dry Water has grown from kitchen experiments to a national brand available in major retailers like Walmart, Walgreens, Target, and Kroger, reaching hundreds of thousands of customers largely through education-driven, word-of-mouth growth rather than heavy ad spend. Bryan's approach centers on regenerative business principles: investing in consumer education, prioritizing clean supply chains even when crops fail or costs rise, and refusing to compromise on non-negotiables around ingredient integrity. A strong advocate for women's sports and youth wellness, Bryan has partnered with League One Volleyball (LOVB) to bring cleaner hydration to thousands of young athletes and professional players, aligning performance with long-term health. Through Dry Water, he is demonstrating that it is possible to scale a profitable, high-growth CPG brand while honoring transparency, ethical sourcing, and the long-term well-being of people and planet.

If you've felt squeezed every time you shop for groceries, there may finally be some good news. Kroger is cutting prices on thousands of items as competition heats up with Walmart, Costco, Aldi and Lidl. Clark explains why grocery stores are fighting harder than ever for your business, why private label products are becoming the best value in the store, and how inflation continues to affect everyday staples like tomatoes. Then, Clark looks at a new way to cut one of your biggest monthly bills. AT&T has launched a new "Build-a-Plan" option starting at just $15 per month. Clark explains who this plan works for, how much data most people actually need, and why so many consumers are paying for unlimited plans they rarely use. If you've been hesitant to leave one of the major wireless carriers but want to spend less every month, this new offering could be exactly the kind of competition that helps put money back in your pocket.

Dan Nathan and Guy Adami host a special Risk Reversal episode with guest Danny Moses to discuss the latest Fed meeting under Kevin Warsh, emphasizing peak hawkish messaging, reduced forward guidance (including questioning the dot plot), and the market's feedback loop. They debate surging volatility and extreme AI/semiconductor valuations, highlighting Intel's sharp rally on customer speculation and concerns about narrative-driven pricing, correlation risk, and potential CapEx pullbacks, with Micron's upcoming earnings as a key test. The group also covers gold's pullback, favoring gold miners like AEM, and argues energy could rebound despite recent weakness. They note consumer strain using Kroger's warnings on rising costs and promotional shopping, alongside elevated delinquencies and credit card debt. After the break, Dan speaks with CNBC's Deirdre Bosa about SpaceX's IPO, “vibe investing,” xAI's compute strategy, the Cursor acquisition, AI token-cost pressures, and how export controls may accelerate adoption of Chinese open-source models like DeepSeek. —FOLLOW USYouTube: @RiskReversalMediaInstagram: @riskreversalmediaTwitter: @RiskReversalLinkedIn: RiskReversal Media The financial opinions expressed in Risk Reversal content are for information purposes only.

Is retail dead? It appears that way but considering 80% of sales still happen in retail stores, what gives? Ecommerce and marketplaces like Amazon have provided an amazing convenience factor, changing how consumers shop. This has taken business from brick & mortar retailers but not without a fight. BOPIS (Buy Online Pickup In Store) has emerged as a way to provide convenience while leveraging selection. Walmart, Target, Kroger, and many other larger retailers have enabled this to keep pace. But more is still desired. Al Schuster, President of Polaris Brand Promotions, joins us on this episode to make the case for why retailers need to make their stores experiential if they want to retain their customer base. It's not just samples but creating experiences that invite people in and engage them in a way that retailers just don't seem to be leveraging currently. Grab a sample, or 5, and press play.What they coverRetail is always changing but the changes have been more dramatic in the past 20 years with Amazon entering the marketing and now rapid tech advances at stores.In store engagement is challenging right now due to stores providing better tech enablement, i.e. ordering on apps or at touch screens instead of from a live human.Retail stores control the environment in the store but since consumers aren't shopping as much in stores or even in the same way, brands need to think long and hard about their investment in these stores and what that looks like to get the best ROI.Ecommerce has a way of taking the shopping out of shopping. Think signage, music, looking at actual items, which removes the ability to both experience the product and shop by comparison.Hiring a brand ambassador may be the one of the best things a brand could do today. Why? It builds engagement and real connection, something missing from current in store interactions. And in doing so, you build more brand ambassadors after the fact, giving your brand real momentum.The Longer Game explores the future of retail across Amazon, ecommerce, and brick-and-mortar.The goal is simple: help brands grow by understanding how all channels work together.Retail is evolving.

Most challenger founders assume international expansion should happen in neat, logical steps. New Zealand → Australia → UK → US. But Lisa's view was different, and that's why it's so interesting: In fact, conventional FMCG wisdom tells us to prove your business in nearby markets first. But founder Lisa King of Free AF Drinks ignored that advice!  After building a 40% share brand in New Zealand, Lisa decided to skip Australia entirely and went straight after the most competitive drinks market in the world...the USA!Why? --> If the ambition was always to build a globally valuable business, she asked herself why spend years proving the model somewhere that wasn't ultimately where the biggest opportunity sat?In this brilliant conversation with Kiwi female founder Lisa, you'll hear how today AF Drinks is stocked in more than 4,500 stores across the US, including Target, Walmart, Whole Foods and Kroger, and just HOW they're doing it. We discuss why she made they made the decision they did, how Pernod Ricard Ventures invested before the US launch, what it really takes to build a beverage brand in America, why alcohol-free RTD cocktails are outperforming expectations, and the lessons founders should understand before attempting to scale internationally.Lisa takes us through a masterclass in the realities of the beverage market in the United States; Why alcohol-free RTD cocktails are growing faster than many expected and finally, how she has approached fundraising, equity and scaling internationally!Key Topics Discussed Alcohol-free drinks category growth  Building challenger brands internationally  International expansion & export to USA   Listings with Target, Walmart, Whole Foods and Kroger  US grocery retail Walmart and Target listings  Fundraising and investor strategy  Pernod Ricard Ventures investment  Beverage category economics  Product innovation, IP & technology  Ready-to-drink cocktails  Scaling consumer brands globally  Founder leadership  Building brands from New Zealand USEFUL LINKSAF Drinks WebsiteAF Drinks InstagramLike this episode?PLEASE share the love by sharing this episode with another founder building a challenger brand, a colleague or a mate who loves brilliant non-alcoholic drinks, or anyone trying to work out how to build a consumer packaged goods business.Don't forget to FOLLOW or SUBSCRIBE to Brand Growth Heroes on your favourite podcast app, and even LEAVE A REVIEW - both of these actions make a MASSIVE difference to our mission to help more founders just like you.Follow usInstagram (https://www.instagram.com/brandgrowthheroes)LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/company/brand-growth-heroes/?viewAsMember=true)Youtube (https://www.youtube.com/@brandgrowthheroes)Find out more about the programmes and courses Fiona runs here (https://www.brandgrowthheroes.com/mini-mba-2026)Join the NextGen CPG WhatsApp group for founders leaning in to the value that a leadership approach to engaging with AI can unlock for businesses like yours.*** Thanks to Brand Growth Heroes' podcast sponsor - Joelson, the commercial law firm ***If you're a founder, you already know how much energy goes into building the perfect product, creating standout branding and connecting with consumers.But scaling a CPG business also brings legal complexities that can make or break your growth journey - from contracts and regulatory compliance to protecting your intellectual property.That's why I'm proud to partner with Joelson, the leading commercial law firm specialising in helping founders of scaling consumer brands.Joelson works with brands like Little Moons, Trip, Eat Natural, Bear Graze and Pulsin, and advised the innocent founders on their landmark sale to Coca-Cola - and still work with them at JamJar Investments today!Joelson is offering a FREE LEGAL CONSULTATION to all BGH listeners (mailto:hello@joelsonlaw.com) - I honestly recommend you take them up on it, they're brilliant.CREDITSThanks to our Sound Engineer Gyp Buggane at Ballagroove.com 

What if the most valuable business lessons you ever learned came not from a classroom, but from a farm? In this episode, Robbie Shoults, third-generation owner of Bear Creek Smokehouse, shares the story of an 83-year family legacy built on smoked meats, hard work, and two simple rules passed down from his grandfather and father: show people how to do it, don't just tell them, and it doesn't cost any more to make it taste good. What started in 1943 with 600 day-old turkey poults and a little smokehouse in East Texas is now a nationally recognized brand sold at Walmart, Publix, and Kroger, with over 50 premium products shipping across the country. And the fourth generation is already on the floor.   [00:04:00] How It All Started Grew up on the farm; farming and ranching have been in the family for generations His great-grandfather told his grandfather: I'll give you that land if you'll go work it His grandfather rode a horse 15 miles every day to work the land [00:05:30] The Family History His grandfather cleared timber with crosscut saws and mules Started planting cotton and corn, raised hogs and cattle, and sold vegetables to grocery stores Coming out of the Depression and World War II, things were hard; feeding the family was a daily struggle [00:07:00] The Turkey Decision That Changed Everything A great uncle told his grandfather: you can put more pounds of gain on a turkey per pound of feed In 1943 they brought in 600 day-old turkey poults with no prior experience Ladies from town would come out with roasting pans and pick the bird that would fit [00:09:00] From Turkeys to a National Brand Worked with Texas A&M to develop curing and smoking recipes; the business took off Expanded from turkeys into hogs, sausage, bacon, and a full product line Now supplies salt pork to over 2,000 Walmarts and Publix stores on the East Coast [00:10:00] The Bear Creek General Store Built a 17,000 square foot general store in 2018; calls it the finest tourist trap in Texas Offers hand-dipped ice cream, homemade fudge, a pit room, and Texas Longhorns out front Visitors come from across the globe to experience a true slice of East Texas life [00:13:00] What Inspires Him: Keeping the Legacy Alive His job is to keep building on what granddad and dad started His son Hunter is the fourth generation running daily operations at the plant His role is telling the story; Hunter's role is running production [00:16:00] The Relationships That Changed Everything: Dad and Granddad Neither had a college education; what they taught on the farm can't be taught in a classroom Passion, endurance, and perseverance are what make a business thrive year after year He would not be where he is without the foundation they laid [00:18:00] What His Grandfather Taught Him About Leadership His grandfather worked alongside his team in the field every single day He was never a supervisor; he was a leader who showed people how to do it Robbie has done every single job on the property; that shapes how he leads today [00:19:30] What His Father Taught Him About Quality His dad said: it doesn't cost any more to make it taste good His dad said: everything you produce comes down to one single bite Those two rules apply to product quality, customer service, and how you treat people [00:21:00] Final Word: Treat People Right Treat people the way you want to be treated; that principle runs through everything Products are available online at bearcreeksmokehouse.com and ship directly to your door The Bear Creek Bottom Bliss cookbook includes five generations of family recipes, Bible verses, and Texas tall tales   KEY QUOTES "It doesn't cost more to make it taste good." - Robbie Shoults, quoting his father "Everything that you produce out of this processing plant is gonna be reduced down to one single bite." - Robbie Shoults, quoting his father "The things that they taught us out here on the farm can't be taught in a university, in a classroom." - Robbie Shoults CONNECT WITH ROBBIE SHOULTS Website: https://www.bearcreeksmokehouse.com Facebook: @BearCreekSmokehouse Instagram: @bearcreeksmokehouse YouTube: @BearCreekSmokehouse TikTok: @bearcreeksmokehouse   Thanks for tuning in!

As fathers, we spend years teaching, guiding, protecting, and preparing our children for life. But what happens when it's time to let go? In this episode of the Faithful Fathering Podcast, Rick Wertz sits down with Ian Moore of Living Word Church to discuss what it means to "pass the baton" to the next generation. From raising young children to mentoring adult sons and daughters, Ian shares powerful insights on the different seasons of fatherhood and the challenge of remaining available without becoming overbearing. Ian also shares his unforgettable "Kroger parking lot testimony", a moment when God reminded him that every child must ultimately have their own relationship with Christ. As fathers, we plant seeds, water faithfully, and trust God for the increase. Whether you're parenting toddlers, teenagers, or grown children, this conversation will encourage you to stay engaged, trust God's timing, and pass the baton well. - What it means to pass the baton to the next generation - The seasons of fatherhood: teacher, coach, and counselor - Learning to let go while staying available - Trusting God with your children's spiritual journey - Encouragement for dads during Father's Day Month Faithful Fathering exists to encourage and equip dads, in partnership with the Church, to be faithful fathers.

Host Jeremy C. Park interviews Missy Acosta, Senior Vice President, Brand Experience with Delta Dental of Tennessee, who highlights Tennessee's largest dental benefits carrier and their differentiation as a not-for-profit 501(c)4 with a mission of "Ensuring Healthy Smiles" and a focus on philanthropy and community investment. Missy talks about Delta Dental of Tennessee's charitable arm, The Smile180 Foundation, which was founded in 2014 with three philanthropic pillars: to increase access to dental care for underserved communities, support children's hospitals, and fund oral health education across Tennessee and beyond. Missy shares a number of examples how their support of charitable dental clinics, including Church Health and Christ Community Health Services in Memphis and Neighborhood Health and Interfaith Dental in Nashville are increasing access to dental care for underserved communities. She discusses why oral health is a top priority for children's hospitals, including St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and Monroe Carell Jr. Children's Hospital at Vanderbilt, and explains why their support of oral health education covers everything from kids television programming to promote healthy habits to supporting colleges of dentistry in Tennessee to help equip the next generation of dentists and oral hygienists to be successful and to help address dental deserts across the state. Missy talks about how these efforts tie in with the Healthy Smiles Initiative, along with some of their other philanthropic efforts, including providing mouth guards to youth playing sports through various organizations and affiliations. Missy then highlights their fifth annual Kids Dental Day, scheduled for Friday, July 10 at First Horizon Park, home of the Nashville Sounds. More than 500 youth from various nonprofits in Middle Tennessee will be attending the fun, festival-like event where they will receive free dental screenings, cleanings, new socks and shoes through a partnership with Soles4Souls, new books through Book 'Em, snacks, and more. Over 100 volunteers will be coming out to support the kids and a number of organizations will be providing interactive games and experiences, like PBS Kids, American Red Cross, Adventure Science Center, American Heart Association, Schenk Photography, and the Colgate Bright Smiles Bright Futures Program. The dental organizations participating include Neighborhood Health, Meharry School of Dentistry, South College, LINKS INC., and Hope Smiles. Partners for the event include Nashville Sounds, cityCURRENT, Signature Transportation, United Way, Kroger, OneGen, Henry Schein, and Dunkin. Missy talks about why this annual event is so important in the community and how this can serve as inspiration for other companies to give back and get more involved in making a difference. Missy closes by inviting youth-serving organizations and volunteers who wish to serve to connect with KidsDentalDay.com to learn more and to plan ahead for next year.

The market is getting crushed… SPY is down hard, QQQ is getting hit even worse, and suddenly the “stocks only go up” crowd is having a very different kind of day.In this breakdown, we react to a crash-warning video claiming the next stock market crash is tied to trillion-dollar IPOs, AI bubble risk, inflation, oil, and liquidity. But instead of buying into panic, we cut through the noise and focus on what actually matters: the data, the trend, and the trading plan.Then we run the first-ever OVTLYR Stock Gauntlet, ranking ten of Barchart's so-called top stocks to buy. And the results were rough. Names like AXTI, Western Digital, Lumen, Seagate, Bloom Energy, AAOI, Coherent, and others were getting hammered, with many showing sell signals, broken trends, or bad risk setups.But even on a nasty red day, money still rotates somewhere. And right now, consumer defensive stocks are starting to stand out. Grocery names like Albertsons, Kroger, and Sprouts were showing strength while the broader market sold off. That's the lesson: when tech and high-beta names get crushed, defensive rotation can create new opportunities.✅ Stock market crash warnings, AI bubble risk, inflation, and IPO pressure✅ First OVTLYR Stock Gauntlet ranking setup✅ AXTI, WDC, Lumen, Seagate, Bloom Energy, AAOI, Coherent, and more✅ SPY, QQQ, market breadth, sell signals, and risk management✅ Albertsons, Kroger, Sprouts, grocery stocks, and defensive rotationIf you're watching the market fall apart and wondering where money is rotating next… this one shows why having a plan matters more than chasing hype.Subscribe to OVTLYR for disciplined trading strategies that actually make sense.

Rick Watson runs through a busy week in retail. Walmart posted a $177.8 billion quarter, with revenue up 7.3%, U.S. comps up 4.1%, and global e-commerce up 26%, yet free cash flow landed at negative $1.9B as automation capex climbed. Advertising grew 37%, marketplace sales jumped close to 50%, and new shoppers skewed upper-income. At Sam's Club, more trips but smaller baskets.Authentic Brands Group named a new CEO: founder Jamie Salter moved to executive chairman, and former MGM Resorts chief Matt Maddox took over. ABG holds 50-plus brands, $38B in system-wide sales, and 77% of the company behind Saks, Neiman Marcus, and Bergdorf Goodman. Salter floated an IPO within the year.At Google I/O 2026, the Universal Cart follows shoppers across Search, Gemini, YouTube, and Gmail, AI Mode crossed a billion monthly users, and native checkout opened to UCP merchants. Kroger hit $16B in e-commerce with a first profit in sight, wages past $20, two senior exits, and 70 to 80 stores planned. Plus an Investor Minute on Global-e, Insider, and Brown-Forman.This week's episode is sponsored by Avalara.

--- EPISODE DESCRIPTION ---I sat down with Will Reeves, CEO of Fold, and walked away genuinely excited about what they are building. Will breaks down how Fold is putting Bitcoin into the hands of everyday Americans — not by convincing them to buy it, but by letting them earn it as a reward on their normal spending. We talk about why airlines and banks can never truly compete with this model, how Fold customers have earned $70 million in Bitcoin rewards, and the wild insight that led to Bitcoin showing up on shelves at Kroger. Will also shares hard-won lessons on building a team, finding product-market fit, and why naivety combined with passion is actually a superpower for founders. This is a story about solving a real financial problem for real people — and the results are speaking for themselves.

Rick Watson and Jessica Lesesky break down Walmart's Q1 numbers and what they say about where retail is heading. Revenue was up 7.3%, U.S. comps rose 4.1%, and global e-commerce grew 26%, but the more telling figures sit elsewhere: advertising up 37% globally and the U.S. marketplace up nearly 50%. Rick and Jessica make the case that Walmart is quietly becoming a digital services business, pulling in wealthier shoppers with celebrity lines and faster delivery, and backing it all with a $1.7 billion-a-year bet on fulfillment automation that Kroger and others will struggle to match.The Watson Weekly Weekend episode is sponsored by Avalara. Its Agentic Tax and Compliance automates behind-the-scenes work for ecommerce brands, enabling accurate checkout tax calculation, clearer tariff and duty visibility, and fewer customer surprises. Avalara integrates with platforms like Shopify, BigCommerce, and WooCommerce. Learn more at avalara.watsonweekly.comFrom there the conversation moves to Google I/O and the "agentic" pitch, including a universal cart meant to follow you across Search, YouTube, and Gemini through Google Wallet. Then the happiness index returns for a look at a K-shaped economy, where affluent buyers keep spending (Amex reported 10% growth in card member spending) while a lot of people are cutting back on basics like gas. Rick closes with advice for brands: shrink the gap between deciding and doing. Take out the friction, lean on convenience and automation, and you win the customer.#WatsonWeekly #Walmart #Retail #Ecommerce #GoogleIO

The CPG Guys are joined in this episode by Bob Nolan, SVP of Growth Science at Conagra Brands. Conagra's portfolio of iconic and emerging food brands continues to evolve to offer contemporary choices for every occasion. Follow Bob on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bob-nolan-938b726/Follow Conagra Brands online at: https://www.conagrabrands.com/Bob answers these questions:What was the "breaking point" where you realized that asking consumers what they wanted was actually leading the company toward failed launches?In the context of your CAGNY 2026 presentation, how do you define the "Validation Trap," and why is it so dangerous for legacy CPG brands today?One of your biggest wins was identifying the "Bowl" trend (Healthy Choice Power Bowls) via behavioral data while the rest of the industry was still testing "Trays." How would traditional validation have killed that multi-million dollar insight?If you've cut traditional testing to zero, how do you now "pre-flight" a major innovation like the Rebel Roots Tallow Sticks or the Dolly Parton line without the safety net of a focus group?How does AI-driven "Demand Science" replace the human element of traditional market research? At CAGNY, you spoke about demand science as a key growth driver. How does moving away from "validation" allow Conagra to be more "provocative" and take risks that traditional research would have deemed "too polarizing"?You use data from Whole Foods and Sprouts to predict what will happen in Kroger and Walmart two years later. Is the "Natural Channel" your new version of a test market, and how does that data-flow work?You've positioned Conagra as a beneficiary of GLP-1 drugs rather than a victim. How did behavioral science—rather than consumer surveys—help you realize that these users aren't eating less of everything, but are actually pivoting toward specific nutrient-dense frozen options?Validation takes months; social trends move in days. How has the "Death of Validation" increased your speed-to-market? Can you give us an example of an "idea-to-shelf" timeline that would have been impossible under the old model?For the Brand Managers out there who are still terrified to launch a product without a "Green Score" from a testing agency, what is your message to them about the risk of not evolving past validation?CPG Guys Website: http://CPGguys.comFMCG Guys Website: http://FMCGguys.comSheCOMMERCE Website: https://shecommercepodcast.com/Rhea Raj's Website: http://rhearaj.comLara Raj in Katseye: https://www.katseye.world/DISCLAIMER: The content in this podcast episode is provided for general informational purposes only.

Dr. Judy Morgan - integrative veterinarian, author of nine books, and one of the leading voices in holistic pet health - joins Dr. Will Cole to pull back the curtain on what conventional veterinary medicine has been getting catastrophically wrong. They cover what's actually in commercial kibble (including why it may legally contain euthanasia solution), why annual vaccinations are largely unnecessary when titer testing exists, why spaying and neutering before six months is the hormonal equivalent of making your puppy postmenopausal overnight, and what flea and tick pesticides are actually doing inside your pet's nervous system. Dr. Morgan also explains traditional Chinese veterinary medicine food therapy, the five element constitutions for pets, the supplements worth knowing about, and the raw food movement that has the big pet food companies very nervous.
