As has become tradition, Jules and Madeleine take a look a selection of 'good news' items from 2025 - including developments in science, technology and medicine, wins in conservation and environmental preservation and even a bit of culture. Join us for an upbeat discussion of the best bits of the year. Title music: Ecstasy by Smiling Cynic
Jun 16, 2025 In this episode, Alyson and Breht explore Friedrich Engels' Dialectics of Nature, a bold and underappreciated attempt to apply dialectical materialism to the natural sciences. Often dismissed or misunderstood, this unfinished work offers a sweeping view of reality - from physics and chemistry to evolution, human consciousness, and ecological breakdown - through the lens of Marxist philosophy. Together, they unpack Engels' central claim that nature itself unfolds dialectically: through contradiction, motion, transformation, and interconnection. They cover the three laws of dialectics, Engels' materialist account of human evolution, his critique of mechanistic science, vulgar materialism, and metaphysical thinking, as well as his early warnings about capitalism's ecological consequences. Along the way, they connect these insights to Marx's concept of species-being, and reflect on what this revolutionary worldview offers in the age of climate crisis, hyper-alienation, and late capitalist decay. Finally, Alyson and Breht have a fascinating open-ended discussion about the existential and spiritual implications of dialectical materialism as a worldview. Whether you're new to dialectical materialism or looking to deepen your understanding, this conversation reframes Engels' work as a profound contribution not just to Marxism, but to the philosophy of science itself. Here are the episodes recommended for further listening in the episode: Economic and Philosophic Manuscripts of 1844 - Karl Marx On Contradiction - Mao Marxism 101: Intro to Historical Materialism (and the Necessity of Socialism) The Nature of All Things: Spinoza's Philosophical Odyssey All Dialectic Deep Dive Episodes ---------------------------------------------------- Support Rev Left and get access to bonus episodes: www.patreon.com/revleftradio Make a one-time donation to Rev Left at BuyMeACoffee.com/revleftradio Follow, Subscribe, & Learn more about Rev Left Radio: https://revleftradio.com/
What really happens when you stop dieting and start eating healthy? In this episode, we hear from two real people who spent years trying to “do the right thing” with food and still felt stuck. Today, we're joined by Becky and Mark, two ZOE members sharing their personal journeys. Each of them has spent the past two years consistently applying ZOE nutrition principles. Instead of relying on rules or restrictions, they embarked on a science-led journey with ZOE, focused on understanding their bodies. The results? Truly remarkable - ZOE became such an important part of their lives that, alongside 18,000 other members of our community, they became ZOE owners through our crowdfunding. So what changed, and did it last? Alongside Professors Tim Spector and Sarah Berry, we explore how Becky and Mark stay motivated and on track, the lessons they have learned, and the strategies they have used to feel more in control and more confident in their everyday choices. As well as some unexpected shifts along the way. It's a conversation about long-term change, not quick fixes, and you'll leave it with real-life examples of how to make healthy eating a part of your everyday life. If healthy eating wasn't about willpower or perfection, what small change would you start with? And what would help you take that first step this week? Unwrap the truth about your food
On previous Creation Moments, we have talked about some of the wonderful designs that help make the giraffe possible. The giraffe has a strong heart to pump blood all the way up to its head and strong arteries to withstand the high blood pressure needed to carry the blood to its head. We have also talked about the giraffe's so-called "wonder net," which is a network of blood vessels that helps to stabilize the blood pressure in the giraffe's head even when it raises and lowers its head.But modern science continues to uncover engineering wonders that enable the giraffe to keep blood flowing evenly to its brain and keep blood from pooling in its legs. Researchers have discovered that giraffes, unlike human beings, have a valve in the jugular vein. But these valves work in the wrong direction to help blood stay in the head. Instead, they close when a giraffe lowers its head, preventing used blood from backing up into the brain.And how does a giraffe, which stays on its feet all day, keep blood from pooling in its legs? Scientists have found that the skin on a giraffe's legs is very tight fitting. When a giraffe walks, its muscle movement within that tight skin actually helps pump used blood out of the legs.If life owed its existence to chance and genetic mistakes, we wouldn't have any giraffes today. But what a wonder of God's design these stately creatures are!Job 39:19"'Have you given the horse strength? Have you clothed his neck with thunder?'"Prayer: Dear Lord, there is nothing too hard for You. Help me to remember the example of the giraffe when life seems filled with too many difficult details. May I be reminded to bring all things to You, for You have promised to hear me. Amen.REF.: Pedley, T.J. How giraffes prevent oedema. Nature.

In this episode of Wisdom's Table, I, Rachel Wortman, delve into a topic that quietly exhausts many of us in the realms of business, leadership, and ministry: the obsession with numbers. We often find ourselves fixated on revenue goals, follower counts, and growth metrics, which, while not inherently evil, can distract us from the life in Christ we are called to live. As I reflect on my own experiences, I share how I've noticed a troubling trend where we replace the concept of fruit-bearing with numerical figures. Instead of asking ourselves who we are becoming, we become preoccupied with what we are producing. This episode marks a pivotal moment for me as I celebrate reaching 20,000 downloads of the podcast, thanks to all of you who have supported and shared it.

Drawing on real-world examples from food, housing, medicine, and more, George reveals the patterns of consolidation, surplus destruction, and artificial shortages that keep society desperate and divided. He calls for recognition, documentation, and rebellion against this “scarcity weapon,” urging listeners to investigate local resources and demand the withheld plenty. This episode is a wake-up call to see beyond the narratives of inflation and supply chain issues to the engineered theft of abundance.Host: George MontyPodcast: True Life PodcastDuration: Approximately 10-15 minutes (based on transcript length)Release Date: Estimated based on content references (late 2025)Listen Here: Explore more episodes and connect with George Monty on the TrueLife platform.

This contemplative meditation draws from the fourth century BCE Taoist master Chuang Tzu, as retold by Thomas Merton. Through the ancient parable of wind moving through ten thousand holes in the earth, we listen to nature's voice—a symphony of mooing, roaring, and whistling that emerges when the invisible breath of life moves through all things. The voice of the wind becomes a powerful metaphor for the higher power many seek in recovery and spiritual practice: an unseen presence speaking through us, singing the music of our lives. What is it that blows through these ten thousand holes? This teaching invites you to rest in stillness, to listen deeply, and to surrender to the mysterious power whose voice awakens all beings. Perfect for those seeking presence, peace, and connection to something greater than themselves.Based on “The Breath of Nature” from The Way of Chuang Tzu by Thomas Merton.Music by Eric Fischer and Christopher Lloyd Clarke.Audio by Eric Fischer.Support the showHost: Tess CallahanSubstack: Writers at the WellInterview Podcast: Writers at the WellMeditations on Insight TimerMeditations on YouTubeTess's novels: https://tesscallahan.com/Music (unless otherwise noted above): Christopher Lloyd ClarkAudio Editing: Eric Fischer By tapping "like" and "follow" you help others find the show.

Both 2020 and 2022 were bruising defeats for MAGA, for America, and Charlie. In his CK Exclusives interview at AmericaFest, Steve Bannon talks about how those losses were actually providential, allowing for the far more effective 2024 comeback that wouldn't have happened otherwise. Steve also discusses Charlie's role in staffing up the new administration and his belief that the Gaza War will lead to a new "two-state solution" for Israel/Palestine, then takes a few questions from CK Exclusives members.

More To The Story: Bill McKibben isn't known for his rosy outlook on climate change. Back in 1989, the environmentalist wrote The End of Nature, which is considered the first mainstream book warning of global warming's potential effects on the planet. His writing on climate change has been described as “dark realism.” But McKibben has recently let a little light shine through thanks to the dramatic growth of renewable energy, particularly solar power. In his latest book, Here Comes the Sun: A Last Chance for the Climate and a Fresh Chance for Civilization, McKibben argues that the planet is experiencing the fastest energy transition in history from fossil fuels to solar and wind—and that transition could be the start of something big. On this week's More To The Story, McKibben sits down with host Al Letson to examine the rise of solar power, how China is leapfrogging the United States in renewable energy use, and the real reason the Trump administration is trying to kill solar and wind projects around the country.Producer: Josh Sanburn | Editor: Kara McGuirk-Allison | Theme music: Fernando Arruda and Jim Briggs | Copy editor: Nikki Frick with help from Digital producer: Artis Curiskis | Deputy executive producer: Taki Telonidis | Executive producer: Brett Myers | Executive editor: James West | Host: Al LetsonListen: Will the National Parks Survive Trump?

Bioneers: Revolution From the Heart of Nature | Bioneers Radio Series
After accomplished stints as a journalist, author and diplomat, and studying theology at Yale Divinity School, Krista Tippett was struck by a significant gap in the media landscape—a lack of deep, intelligent conversations to explore the spiritual, ethical and moral aspects of human life. What began as a national public radio show in 2003 evolved into the multiple award-winning podcast “On Being” (“wisdom to replenish and orient in a tender, tumultuous time to be alive.”) Gifted with insatiable curiosity, profound relational intelligence, a poetic sensibility, and an ability to unearth revelatory ideas to live by, Krista creates spaces where wisdom can emerge. With her interdisciplinary and cross-sectoral whole systems overview, she's hosted luminaries as disparate as Mary Oliver, Thich Nhat Hahn, Isabel Wilkerson and Desmond Tutu, among many more. Listen to this rare intimate, live interview with her friend, insightful strategist, philanthropist and activist Azita Ardakani.

"I don't want to make a zoo. I don't to take care of those animals for eternity, I want them to live on their own and in order to have a sustainable ecosystem it's extremely important to have all niches filled in this ecosystem." In the place of the vast Siberian tundras were once great grasslands teeming with wildlife, until early humans hunted them out. In the latest episode of Rewilding the World Nikita Zimov explains how his Pleistocene rewilding project in remotest Siberia is using wild horses, muskox, yaks and even camels to restore these grasslands, which - he suggests - can go a long way towards solving the climate crisis.Ben Goldsmith is a British financier and rewilding enthusiast.

Ever since host Phil Ristaino started recording decodes of Twin Peaks: the Return with his buddy and co-host Justin Epifanio over a year ago, they (we) were keenly aware that this day would come - that they (we) would one day arrive at the legendary EPISODE 8 of the Return. Yes, that episode. The one with the nuclear bomb. The one where Mr C dies. The one with the gas station. The one where Judy pukes up Bob. The one where the Fireman and Señorita Dido create the Laura Palmer golden orb in the White Lodge. The one with the 'Gotta Light?' guy. The one where the girl eats the frog moth in her sleep. The one where maybe the greatest episode of any TV show ever was created, delivered, and absorbed by Twin Peaks fanatics and surrealist dreamers worldwide. That episode 8. Well... we tried to decode it. Well, the first half, at least. In this epic-sode, Phil and Justin's decode is intertwined with a conversation between Phil and the hosts of the Vayse podcast, "a podcast about weird stuff." Stephen James Buckley (of Polypores fame) and Peter C. Hine have been Twin Peaks fans for the last 30 years or so, and they've been itching for an excuse to talk about TP: the Return. They swoop into the PRP drop zone with hot takes, theories, interpretations, and deep fandom. The combination of all four brains causes ripples of realization across the episode as multiple universes collide like ants scuttling over ones and zeros on a solid state hard drive (also made of ants - remember?) And, again, we only cover the first half of TP:TR episode 8.PLUS! A full musical score with the music of Polypores! Also! Damn good times and David Lynch imitations. And more!

As the year closes, many of us feel pressure to keep going, stay productive, and “finish strong”—even when our bodies and nervous systems are asking for something very different. In this short, reflective episode, we will explore why this particular season can feel heavier than expected, especially for ADHD women and high-achievers who are used to pushing through discomfort. We will gently question the belief that slowing down is a problem, and instead look at what this quieter, darker season might actually be inviting—without forcing meaning or bypassing real struggles. We will reflect on cycles—of nature, of energy, and of our own lives—and why resisting them often creates more exhaustion, not less. This isn't a how-to or a list of strategies. It's a pause. An invitation to listen differently. If you've been feeling tension between what the world expects and what your body needs right now, this episode is for you. —CHAPTERS— 00:00 Introduction and Holiday Greetings 00:26 Embracing Darkness and Seasonal Affective Disorder 01:30 Connecting with Nature's Cycles 02:20 Finding Beauty in Darkness 05:10 The Importance of Stillness 07:17 Cycles of Life and Nature 11:05 Conclusion and Reflections ✨ If you found this episode helpful… Please follow, subscribe, and share it with another ADHD woman who needs support!

Garth Heckman The David Alliance TDAgiantSlayer@Gmail.com A few times I will get an email about all the things I miss in a podcast over a topic or a portion of scripture… Look I only get 7 minutes before you lose your attention… so focus on the seven minutes… and don't get distracted. It's Gods word, focus on that and not on what is not being said…and that's where we are going today! Matthew 14:22 Immediately after this, Jesus insisted that his disciples get back into the boat and cross to the other side of the lake, while he sent the people home. 23 After sending them home, he went up into the hills by himself to pray. Night fell while he was there alone. 24 Meanwhile, the disciples were in trouble far away from land, for a strong wind had risen, and they were fighting heavy waves. 25 About three o'clock in the morning Jesus came toward them, walking on the water. 26 When the disciples saw him walking on the water, they were terrified. In their fear, they cried out, “It's a ghost!” 27 But Jesus spoke to them at once. “Don't be afraid,” he said. “Take courage. I am here!” 28 Then Peter called to him, “Lord, if it's really you, tell me to come to you, walking on the water.” 29 “Yes, come,” Jesus said. So Peter went over the side of the boat and walked on the water toward Jesus. 30 But when he saw the strong wind and the waves, he was terrified and began to sink. “Save me, Lord!” he shouted. 31 Jesus immediately reached out and grabbed him. “You have so little faith,” Jesus said. “Why did you doubt me?” 32 When they climbed back into the boat, the wind stopped. 33 Then the disciples worshiped him. “You really are the Son of God!” they exclaimed. PETER DID NOT SAY “LORD LET ME WALK ON WATER” HE SAID COMMAND ME TO WALK ON WATER…. Touch the heavens, speak from the throne of God and make it happen by your words and your words alone. Peter doesn't know much… but at this point he does know one thing: If Jesus commands it- it will happen. If he speaks the word- it will fulfill its purpose. **THIS IS WHY HE NEEDED TO HEAR JESUS SPEAK THE WORD. It is important to note that Matthew also includes several "summary verses" (e.g., Matthew 4:23, 14:14) stating that Jesus healed "many" or "all" who came to Him, implying the actual number of miracles was in the hundreds or thousands.However, the specific, detailed accounts recorded up to Matthew 14:28 are as follows: Cleansing a Leper (Matt. 8:1–4) Jesus commands be healed Healing the Centurion's Servant (Matt. 8:5–13) You don't need to come just say the word Healing Peter's Mother-in-Law (Matt. 8:14–15) Casting out demons with his command Calming the Storm at Sea (Matt. 8:23–27) He commands it to be calm Casting Demons into a Herd of Pigs (The Gadarene Demoniacs) (Matt. 8:28–34) He commands them into the pigs Healing a Paralytic (Matt. 9:1–8 Speaks take up your Matt and walk Healing the Woman with the Issue of Blood (Matt. 9:20–22) Raising Jairus' Daughter from the Dead (Matt. 9:18–26) 10.Healing Two Blind Men (Matt. 9:27–31) 11.Healing a Mute Demoniac (Matt. 9:32–34) 12.Healing the Man with a Withered Hand (Matt. 12:9–14) He tells him to hold out his hand 13.Healing a Blind and Mute Demoniac (Matt. 12:22) 14.Feeding the 5,000 (Matt. 14:13–21) Jesus commands the disciples you feed them. **THIS WAS THE SET UP FOR PETER! He knew that all authority was subject to his voice, his words, his authority. Nature, Supernatural and Physical. 15.Jesus Walking on the Water (Matt. 14:25–27) 16. Peter walking on Water Things we learn: Peter did not jump out of the boat on emotion… any emotion he felt would have been fear, uncertainty in the storm.

>> This series was first released in Nov/Dec 2019. We are re-releasing it now 6 years later as we are digging back in to document the collective impact of the series and to celebrate the work of those continuing to build the new grains movement. As part of this project we are collecting voice notes from anyone who listened, inviting you to share a bit of how Cereal impacted you and whether the series sparked any change or action, big or small - maybe it made you think differently about something, or maybe you completely changed career - we want to hear both and all stories! The voice notes will form part of a new Farmerama episode and digital soundmap. We are collecting these stories now, so if you would like to send your story our way, then you can send us an audio message on: WhatsApp +447466301300, or via our instagram messages. Please let us know who you are, where you are based and then whatever part of your story you would like to share. We are excited to hear from you! >> Today, wheat covers an estimated 218 million hectares of the planet – more than any other food crop. The quality of a loaf starts with the wheat. Most bread we eat today is made using modern varieties of wheat that were bred for yield at the expense of everything else. These seeds produce a monoculture of plants that can yield a lot in a good year, but are reliant on chemical inputs and extremely vulnerable in the face of climatic extremes. Most shockingly international legislation dictates that trading any wheat seeds that don't fit the modern wheat breeding criteria is essentially illegal. We hear from a top scientist about new findings showing we need to dramatically rethink the seeds we sow if we want to feed the planet in years to come, re-focusing on diversity and quality. And there's real hope – stories of people all over the UK who are finding ways around these oppressive laws, building up a seedbank that supports diversity, low-input ecological farming and nutritious grains to feed people. This is just the beginning. The radical changes that bread has undergone are revealing of wider truths about our relationships with food, to farmers, with the land, the environment, and with each other. This if the second episode in a 6 part series, Cereal, uncovering the hidden truths behind our bread and the people who are building a new grains movement. Cereal is written and produced by Katie Revell and made possible by the generous support of the Roddick Foundation. Featured in this episode: Andrew Whitley, Bread Matters, Chairman of Scotland the Bread, currently based at Bowhouse Fife Rupert Dunn, Torth y Tir, community supported peasant bakery, Wales John Letts, Heritage Harvest Martin Wolfe, Wakelyn's Agroforestry (previously Professor of Plant Pathology at Cambridge) Mark Lea, Green Acres Farm, Shropshire Kimberley Bell, Small Food Bakery, Nottingham Josiah Meldrum, Hodmedods

After a season of intense growth, big goals, and even bigger emotions, OTTB on Tap is back for Season 3.In this return episode, Niamh and Emily come up for air and reflect honestly on burnout, boundaries, and what it really looks like to fully commit to something and then choose a new way forward.Inspired by a quote from Matthew McConaughey about the clarity that comes from fully committing instead of living in the limbo of a half-assed effort, and a reminder from Taylor Swift that energy is expensive, this episode sets the tone for a more grounded chapter for the podcast and for life with off-track Thoroughbreds.We reflect on the emotional and mental load of 2025, including the aftermath of the Retired Racehorse Project Makeover, and talk openly about equestrian burnout, OTTB identity beyond competition, and what sustainable progress really looks like for horses and humans alike. This conversation centers on non-linear OTTB journeys, rest without guilt, and redefining success in the OTTB retraining world.Spotify Wrapped 2025 and Standout EpisodesWe also dive into our Spotify Wrapped 2025 data, celebrating just how much OTTB on Tap grew this past year and what that growth has meant to us and the community.We each share our most memorable episodes:Niamh's picksS2 E27, Ramon MoyaS2 E16, Recycled Racehorse FalconryS2 E24, Ali Kuhn & Little HailEmily's picksS2 E7 & 8, Tom & Clare MansmannS2 E20 & 21, Aubrey GrahamS2 E31 & 32, Shannon RileyHonorable mentions, because we truly love every episode, include Trotty by Nature, Turning For Home, Pastured Place, and our RRP Chronicles trainers Amanda Chance, Harley Whittaker, Stephanie Parkot, and Chelsey O'Brien.Looking Ahead to 2026, The Year of the HorseWe frame 2026 as the Year of the Horse, a season focused on intentional movement, partnership, and forward motion that feels right rather than constant output. We also share how OTTB on Tap is evolving in Season 3, with more conversational episodes, listener involvement, and space for honest conversations about balance, mental health, and life after big goals.This episode is for anyone navigating life after the RRP, questioning hustle culture in horse sport, or learning how to stay connected to their OTTB and themselves without burning out.Listener Giveaway!

Each episode, our hosts face 5 surprising “facts” about a totally random topic—but only some of them are true. Their job? Sort the real from the ridiculous before the buzzer hits.This week, the theme is Man vs. Nature, and things get wild fast. From unbelievable survival stories to strange animal encounters and natural phenomena that sound too dramatic to be real, our hosts have to figure out which tales actually happened and which ones are pure fabrication.Expect bold guesses, heated debates, and plenty of “there's no way that's real” moments as they try to outsmart Mother Nature herself.Dive in and see who conquers the wilderness of misinformation—and who gets lost in the woods.#FactOrFiction #ManVsNature #PodcastFun #SurvivalStories #NatureFacts #TruthOrLie
Today's guest is Nathalie Latham, photographer and film maker, based in Paris, until her life altering diagnosis of Stage 3 cervical cancer at age 39. During her therapy, she was stuck in bed for 7 days and nights and needed activity to focus her mind, so she began drawing. As she recovered, she kept drawing to remind herself that she was alive. These drawings are now part of her visual memoir I AM ALIVE: Creating Resilience and Healing Trauma through Art.We talk about brachytherapy radiation, the role of art in healing, accepting the past, how nature and spirituality helped her recover, embracing joy in the creative process, finding beauty in trauma, and so much more.This conversation was incredibly beautiful, as is Nathalie's work, and a perfect episode to end 2025 and prepare for a new year.

Before we go on indefinite hiatus, we have a two parter for you! Here's a taste of the stories, music, poetry and more, coming soon.
Many of us know that being outside feels good.Maybe it's for a short walk to the store. Maybe for a hike at a nearby mountain. Or maybe spending time at the beach with loved ones for a holiday.But did you know that a short walk in nature can improve your attention span by 20 percent? And that even fake plants have been shown to deliver health benefits?There are real benefits to surrounding yourself with the natural world.We sit down with the pioneer of environmental neuroscience, Marc Berman. He's out with a new book all about the science behind the benefits spending time outside called “Nature and the Mind.”Find more of our programs online.

THEATER, BATTLESHIPS, AND THE ILLUSION OF AMERICAN POWER Colleagues Gaius and Germanicus, Friends of History Debating Society, Londinium, 91 AD. Gaius and Germanicus discuss the theatrical nature of American imperial power under Donald Trump, positing that the administration utilizes military displays—such as missile strikes on empty targets in Nigeria or Venezuela—as symbolic rituals to assert authority without risking the failure associated with actual combat. Germanicus argues that Trump possesses the insight that "theater is the best way to assert American authority," drawing a parallel to Reagan's "Star Wars" initiative, which defeated the Soviets through the illusion of technological superiority rather than its reality. They debate the strategic utility of battleships; while Trump envisions massive vessels for their psychological hold on the "collective imagination," Germanicus predicts the construction of guided missile cruisers that merely project that image of invincibility. The conversation shifts to the Russo-Ukrainian conflict, where Germanicus characterizes the Kyiv government as a "gangster racket" protracting the war for financial gain while Russia solidifies its military reputation. They conclude that the US is transitioning into a phase of empire relying on "demonstration and display" to maintain global dominance, warning that an actual military defeat could be a fatal blow to the system.

Are you ready to feel grounded, energized, and confident in your wellness this year? Are you tired of starting January with restriction instead of nourishment? Do you want habits that actually stick and support your metabolism, hormones, and mental health? In this episode, Ali and Becki kick off the new year by sharing five foundational ways to invest in your wellness so your routines feel craveworthy, not forced. We discuss how pleasure, satisfaction, and real food are essential for sustainability, how to navigate cravings without shame, and why creating routines your body desires leads to lasting change. We also dive into supporting detox pathways, balancing blood sugar, and understanding how hormonal shifts—especially changes in estrogen—impact insulin sensitivity and metabolism as women age. Ali and Becki cover practical strategies for metabolic flexibility, the role of gratitude in nervous system and metabolic regulation, and why getting outside daily may be one of the most powerful (and overlooked) tools for stress resilience and healing.

Our Keto Reset is a 12-week, real-food, functional medicine–based program designed to help you lower insulin, improve metabolic flexibility, and address the root causes behind stubborn weight loss, hormone imbalance, gut dysfunction, and chronic inflammation. Unlike traditional keto plans, this program focuses on macronutrient strategy over calorie obsession, antioxidant density, therapeutic foods, and high-quality sourcing—while eliminating ultra-processed foods and non-caloric sweeteners. The goal isn't restriction or perfection, but teaching your body how to burn fat efficiently while feeling nourished and supported. Throughout the program, you'll learn how to personalize your approach using sliding-scale protocols, understand how stress, hormones, and blood sugar influence metabolism, and build sustainable habits that lead to true food freedom. With weekly live classes, Q&As, and access to Ali and Becki's combined 20+ years of functional medicine experience, the Keto Reset is designed to work with your physiology—not against it—so you can finally feel confident, clear, and in control of your health.
