My guest today is Sage Berryman, CEO of Aluula Composites (TSXV: AUUA). Aluula is focused on revolutionizing material science. Founded in 2019, the company has developed a patented process for producing ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) composites without glues—fusing at the molecular level to create materials that are lighter, stronger, more durable, and fully recyclable. This “mono-material” design also enables circularity and addresses the growing demand for PFAS-free solutions. The company first gained traction in windsports through its Ocean Rodeo subsidiary, but following a 2023 RTO and a 2024 strategic refocus under Sage's leadership, Alula divested Ocean Rodeo to concentrate on becoming an ingredient brand. Today, Aluula is targeting both premium outdoor markets—packs, tents, wind sports—and larger commercial and industrial applications, where strength, durability, and recyclability are key. Aluula will be presenting at our conference in Toronto, the Planet MicroCap Showcase on October 21-23, and invited her on to discuss: The science behind Aluula's glue-free composites Strategic pivot from Ocean Rodeo to ingredient branding Long but improving sales cycles for adoption Differentiation from commodity materials like polyester and nylon Expansion plans into higher-volume industrial applications Financial discipline, with recent margins of 40–45% For more information about Aluula Composites, please visit: https://aluula.com/ This podcast was recorded and is being made available by SNN, Inc.

Wisconsin's attorney general says he's running for a third term. That means he's out of the race for governor. U.S. Senator Ron Johnson reacts to news that the FBI reviewed his phone records in relation to January 6. And, lawmakers and the DNR clashed over a proposal to address PFAS contamination.

What if the same determination it takes to climb some of the world's highest peaks was also the key to tackling some of the world's biggest chemical threats?That's the story of today's guest, Arlene Blum. A pioneering mountaineer who co-led the first women's ascent of Denali and led the first American ascent of Annapurna I, Arlene later turned her focus toward another steep climb: protecting public health from harmful chemicals. As the founder of the Green Science Policy Institute, she has helped phase out toxic flame retardants and raised global awareness of PFAS—also known as “forever chemicals.” You may remember her from our Forever Chemicals podcast series last year.Now, Arlene is sounding the alarm on what could be the next PFAS: antimicrobials. As we celebrate 200 episodes of the Outdoor Minimalist podcast, we explore the parallels between adventure and advocacy and how we can carry the lessons learned from the wilderness to creating change in our own communities.

Send us a Text: Ask Us a Question!On this episode of Waypoints, host Jim Klug records on location in Punta Allen, Mexico with South African angler, adventurer, guide, and lodge manager Francois Botha. A true global traveler, Francois has spent his career working and fishing in some of the world's most remote and exciting destinations - from Alaska's wild rivers to the Indian Ocean atolls, from Central Africa to the Yucatán. Today, he and his wife Dasha manage the well-known Palometa Club on Ascension Bay, while also splitting time between Alaska and Africa. With decades of experience guiding, managing lodges, and exploring new waters, Francois brings a unique perspective on what it really takes to make a life in fly fishing.  In this conversation, Jim and Francois dive into the realities of lodge life - the preparation, the grind, and the rewards of managing a world-class fishing operation. Francois talks about the challenges of running remote programs, the dynamics of working as a couple, the importance of versatility as a guide, and the behind-the-scenes work that goes into creating unforgettable guest experiences. They also explore how South African anglers have made such an outsized impact on the global fly fishing community, the differences in client expectations around the world, and what the future looks like for the next generation of destination anglers, explorers, and professional lodge managers.After the success of the 2024 Belize and 2023 Baja Bluegrass events, we're excited to bring the experience back to Belize for 2025. Join us November 4–9 at El Pescador Lodge on Ambergris Caye for a five-night, all-inclusive fishing, beach, and bluegrass getaway—exclusively for 30 couples.Waypoints is brought to you by PatagoniaTo bring their gear to life, Patagonia is motivated by relentless curiosity and a passion for the wild.

Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend!   I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks…   Anonymous: Hello! My labs showed I have low cortisol, I've been supplementing with adrenal energy for a few months and have tried to incorporate more yoga and nervous system work. I used to weight train heavy and hard and I've cut that back alot. My workouts are still leaving me super inflammed the next day and days after (even from doing just 2 excersizes 3 sets). I dont feel my energy improving at all from these past few months. What should I do? I dont have a whole lot of stress right now but my body has definitely been super stressed in the past which is why I think im at this point. Im dog walking for work and even just slow nice walks out in nature is fatiguing me. Do I have to cut out weights completely while I heal?                                                                                                                                                                 Jenny: Hi Dr. Cabral - I have always enjoyed when you share your experiences with your current and previous dogs, and especially your approach to their food and overall health. We have a black lab mix who is over 12 and as expected, he doesn't move as easily as he used to. Are there any supplements you would give to your dog at this stage in life? I'm particularly thinking of something for joint pain and mobility, lipomas, food recommendations, etc. Thank you so much!        Katherine:  Hi Doc. Thank you for all you do for the world! I had a 28cm stent put in from my bladder to kidney because my ureter has a stricture. I went for a renal scan and my 1 kidney is functioning at 18% with the stent in. Now the specialist is recommending to take it out. I need to take out my stent because it's juat temporary but they are wondering if I wanted to switch out for another stent. I've done many of your lab tests throughout the year and quarterly detoxes. I am 42 years old. Is it possible I could naturally improve the function of it? What would you do? Thanks so much for your input!      Bettina: Hello Dr. Cabral, since I live in Denmark, I've been looking for a reverse osmosis system available locally. I found one that seems promising and would appreciate your thoughts. It uses 8-stage filtration with 400 GPD flow, removing microplastics, nanoplastics, heavy metals (lead, mercury, arsenic, cadmium, chromium, aluminum), and chemical pollutants (pesticides, herbicides, PFAS, VOCs, chlorine, fluoride, nitrates, cyanide). It also eliminates microorganisms (bacteria, viruses, parasites, mold, algae, cyanotoxins) via a 0.0001-micron Platinum RO membrane and UV sterilization (99.9% effective). It filters sediments, radionuclides, and TDS. A carbon pre-filter protects the membrane, while a mineral boost reintroduces calcium and magnesium. Hydrogen and pH balancing enhance the water.                  Bettina: Hello Dr. Cabral, it's me again. What are your thoughts on this product? It is made without additives and developed in collaboration with neuroscience experts. Each 100% vegan capsule contains 600 mg Curcumin C3 Complex® (standardized to 95% curcuminoids) for antioxidant and anti-inflammatory support, 50 mg ginger extract (standardized to 20% gingerols) for digestive and immune benefits, 40 mg saffron extract from Spain (standardized to 3% safranal, 7.5% crocins, and 30% polyphenols) to support mood and emotional balance, and 10 mg BioPerine® (standardized to 95% piperine) to enhance absorption and bioavailability. All raw materials are tested before production by top laboratories such as Eurofins to ensure purity and quality. Thanks for your time.                                                               Thank you for tuning into this weekend's Cabral HouseCalls and be sure to check back tomorrow for our Mindset & Motivation Monday show to get your week started off right! - - - Show Notes and Resources: StephenCabral.com/3530 - - - 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?

Episode 131 – Part 3 of Season 2: Forever Chemicals Detox 101 Your DNA is not a life sentence. While genetics play a role in health, research shows that everyday exposures from your home and environment generally matter far more in determining long-term outcomes. In this episode of Practical Nontoxic Living™, Sophia Ruan Gushée introduces how household toxic exposures, specifically PFAS (forever chemicals) exposure, can influence cancer. You'll hear why most cancers and many chronic conditions are driven not by genes, but by environmental and lifestyle factors. Most importantly, you'll learn simple, practical steps you can take at home to reduce exposures and protect your family's health.

Ivey Gruber, President of the Michigan Talk Network, joins Steve for a wide-ranging conversation. First up, yes, Steve Gruber Show merch is on the way! Then, the discussion turns serious: the tragic consequences of soft-on-crime policies that allow repeat offenders to remain on the streets, including the heartbreaking case of a career criminal who murdered a college girl just to steal her credit cards. They also tackle another growing concern, PFAS “forever chemicals” and how soil contamination can quietly make its way into your food supply.

In this episode of the PFAS Pulse Podcast, Host Tom Simmons and Matthew Wallace are joined by HRP's Sam Muller, to discuss a recent study, which demonstrated that PFAS are far more acidic than previously thought.

In this episode of the Naturally Nourished Podcast, we focus on three key hormones that can significantly impact metabolism: insulin, leptin, and cortisol. Each of these hormones plays an essential role in regulating energy, hunger, and stress, and when imbalances occur, they may be the underlying cause of a metabolic stall or plateau. The conversation explores how insulin resistance can block fat burn, how leptin resistance can interfere with satiety signals, and how cortisol dysregulation can drive cravings and fat storage. We discuss practical strategies for identifying when these hormones are out of balance, along with food-as-medicine approaches, lifestyle modifications, and targeted supplementation to help restore harmony and support optimal metabolic function.

#242: Abby Rockefeller has spent her life pushing back against the toxic legacy of sewage sludge. In this interview, she unpacks how America's sewer systems pollute water, contaminate farmland, and endanger farmers and eaters alike. From compost toilets to PFAS contamination, Abby makes the case for radically rethinking our waste and a returning to systems that support soil, water, and life.https://realorganicproject.org/abby-rockefeller-sewage-sludge-242The Real Organic Podcast is hosted by Dave Chapman and Linley Dixon, engineered by Brandon StCyr, and edited and produced by Jenny Prince.The Real Organic Project is a farmer-led movement working towards certifying 1,000 farms across the United States this year. Our add-on food label distinguishes soil-grown fruits and vegetables from hydroponically-raised produce, and pasture-raised meat, milk, and eggs from products harvested from animals in horrific confinement (CAFOs - confined animal feeding operations).To find a Real Organic farm near you, please visit:https://www.realorganicproject.org/directoryWe believe that the organic standards, with their focus on soil health, biodiversity, and animal welfare were written as they should be, but that the current lack of enforcement of those standards is jeopardizing the ability for small farms who adhere to the law to stay in business. The lack of enforcement is also jeopardizing the overall health of the customers who support the organic movement; customers who are not getting what they pay for at market but still paying a premium price. And the lack of enforcement is jeopardizing the very cycles (water, air, nutrients) that Earth relies upon to provide us all with a place to live, by pushing extractive, chemical agriculture to the forefront.If you like what you hear and are feeling inspired, we would love for you to join our movement by becoming one of our 1,000  Real Friends:https://www.realorganicproject.org/real-organic-friends/To read our weekly newsletter (which might just be the most forwarded newsletter on the internet!) and get firsthand news about what's happening with organic food, farming and policy, please subscribe here:https://www.realorganicproject.org/email/

Host Sean Grady interviews attorney Robert Bilott live from the AHMP EHS Hazmat Summit in Louisville, Kentucky. Bilott, the lawyer whose work inspired the film Dark Waters, shares his decades-long fight against DuPont over PFAS contamination, the failures of early chemical disclosure, and the challenges of pushing the EPA to regulate forever chemicals. He discusses his book Exposure, the ongoing litigation nationwide, the impact on water utilities and ratepayers, and how consumer demand is forcing change. Bilott also explains how states like New Jersey and Minnesota are leading regulation, the global scope of PFAS contamination, and the need for new technology and laws to address the crisis.Thanks to our Sponsors: Cascade Environmental, E-Tank, and WASTELINQ

Send us a textOn this week's "from the vault" episode;A relatively short podcast. I mainly talk about why a program to heal your pelvic floor can not really be done/purchased online where as a program to heal Diastasis Recti can.There are some excellent pelvic floor specialists on Instagram and a lot of the information they give is very useful however I personally wouldn't recommend you invest in any of their programs without a physical examination first.In the news this week I briefly talk about an article one of my clients sent me. This article from the BBC about safety levels for PFAS, ( Perfluoroalkyl substances), of UK drinking water. I am trying to find someone to come onto the podcast and talk about householdchemicals, PFAs included, but still thought I'd mention it. The article is based on this episode of the, excellent, "Costing the Earth" program on BBC Radio4.

Nearly half of children's multivitamins tested contained PFAS “forever chemicals,” with 4 out of 9 products showing measurable contamination 44% of children's multivitamins also contained phthalates, which are hormone-disrupting chemicals linked to developmental and reproductive harm No glyphosate or other detectable pesticides were found in any of the multivitamins, even at the lowest standardized detection levels Independent scientists reviewing the results stressed that PFAS and phthalates pose serious risks to children's health, including impacts on immunity, fertility, growth, behavior, and cancer risk Experts call on supplement companies to improve manufacturing, purification, and monitoring practices to eliminate toxic contaminants from children's vitamins

Did you know that up to 70% of adults with seasonal allergies may experience symptoms of pollen food allergy syndrome (PFAS)? This often-overlooked condition can mimic true nut allergies, leading to unnecessary dietary restrictions. In this episode, we tackle the challenge of differentiating PFAS from primary nut allergies. We explore the molecular basis of cross-reactivity between pollen and food proteins, discuss key diagnostic approaches using testing with allergen components, and provide insights on risk stratification. Learn about the unique presentation of pollen food allergy syndrome with tree nuts and peanuts, understand the role of labile versus storage proteins in symptom manifestation, and gain practical tips for patient management and dietary advice.

#241: Johanna Davis and Adam Nordell built their farm from scratch, growing vegetables and grains while weaving their community together through food and place. But after more than a decade of farming, they discovered their land, water, and bodies were poisoned by PFAS chemicals -  “forever chemicals” spread decades earlier as sewage sludge billed as fertilizer. Their journey reveals the devastating impact of toxic contamination on farms and the urgent need to protect soil, farmers, and communities from systemic chemical pollution.https://realorganicproject.org/adam-nordell-johanna-davis-pfas-organic-maineThe Real Organic Podcast is hosted by Dave Chapman and Linley Dixon, engineered by Brandon StCyr, and edited and produced by Jenny Prince.The Real Organic Project is a farmer-led movement working towards certifying 1,000 farms across the United States this year. Our add-on food label distinguishes soil-grown fruits and vegetables from hydroponically-raised produce, and pasture-raised meat, milk, and eggs from products harvested from animals in horrific confinement (CAFOs - confined animal feeding operations).To find a Real Organic farm near you, please visit:https://www.realorganicproject.org/directoryWe believe that the organic standards, with their focus on soil health, biodiversity, and animal welfare were written as they should be, but that the current lack of enforcement of those standards is jeopardizing the ability for small farms who adhere to the law to stay in business. The lack of enforcement is also jeopardizing the overall health of the customers who support the organic movement; customers who are not getting what they pay for at market but still paying a premium price. And the lack of enforcement is jeopardizing the very cycles (water, air, nutrients) that Earth relies upon to provide us all with a place to live, by pushing extractive, chemical agriculture to the forefront.If you like what you hear and are feeling inspired, we would love for you to join our movement by becoming one of our 1,000  Real Friends:https://www.realorganicproject.org/real-organic-friends/To read our weekly newsletter (which might just be the most forwarded newsletter on the internet!) and get firsthand news about what's happening with organic food, farming and policy, please subscribe here:https://www.realorganicproject.org/email/

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:    Alicja: Hello Dr. Cabral, I hope you're doing well. My question is about dental sealants. My kids' dentist recommended them for my 8 yo daughter and I blindly believed it was a good advice. Later he recommended them for my younger daughter, but this time I looked up what are dental sealants and it turns out it is plastic. Since my older daughter has them already (on 4 of her molars) I'm struggling to make a decision which is less of two evils: leaving the sealants because the damage has already been done, or should we have them removed, risking that some plastic will be absorbed by her body during scraping the sealants of her teeth?                                                                                                                                               Holly: Hi! I need help for my 20-year-old daughter. She has been dealing with an issue of having very terrible smelling urine, yet labs show no bladder or kidney infection. She says there's minor discomfort after emptying her bladder. Despite undergoing multiple physical exams and lab tests, everything has come back normal. Her urologist prescribed Solifenacin several months ago, but it hasn't provided any relief. She is staying hydrated, avoiding spicy foods, and has eliminated caffeine from her diet. This issue has persisted for a long time, and it's affecting her emotionally—she is becoming quite depressed over it. Her health history is that she is highly allergic to cow's milk and peanuts/tree nuts and has had eczema since she was a baby. Any advice is greatly appreciated!                             Kaitlin: I've been having tinnitus for the past 4 months. It started out in one ear, then both ears, and then transitioned to full head buzzing. It feels like my brain is attached to an electrical socket. I have also been experiencing extreme anxiety, insomnia, fatigue, and soreness(esp neck). I am a very healthy 31 year old-eat an extremely clean diet and very fit. I did notice my symptoms worsening after switching to methylated vitamins. It also intensifies with heavy lifts & exercise. I did the hair test and it showed elevation in mercury and aluminum and every mineral ratio was out of whack. I also did the OATS test and it showed some depletion of b vitamins as well as low levels of neurotransmitters. I'm not sure where to go from here. I'm scared supps are going to make it worse again.             Riela: My husband has had rather severe problems with vertigo for these past years. It seems to have been triggered by having Covid, and also a period of high stress; but he also had a blow to the head some years ago, and I'm wondering if that may be a cause as well. He's been on Pristiq for some time, and doesn't have as many problems with vertigo now, but he would like to get off it. Anxiety or stress worsens his vertigo. I'd appreciate it if you could help us find a direction, healthwise, that we could go.                                                                                                                                                           Jen: Hello! I enjoy your podcast and it has helped me so much over the years. I have a question regarding contact lenses. It has been reported that most are full of PFAS. I stopped wearing my contacts after wearing them for over 30 years when I heard this. I hate wearing glasses and am wondering if wearing contacts is truly dangerous. I found one brand that claims to be PFAS free (Eiyan), but they don't cover my prescription. In addition to this, most contacts now have UV protection which I am also concerned blocks sunlight signals from entering my eyes, and thus disrupting my circadian rhythm. Could you please share your thoughts on both issues.

If it were ONLY yoga pants and Invisalign interfering with our hormonal health, it might not be too hard to avoid them and move on. But there are many more products and protocols--including plastic, pesticides, and mammograms--that throw our health out of whack. Patricia Luccardi today exposes numerous sources of toxins, PFAs (forever chemicals), and radiation that disrupt healthy hormonal function.   Patricia also offers solutions and suggestions for avoiding these things in the first place and flushing them out once we've been exposed. She shares the benefits of going braless, the power of broccoli sprouts and seeds for clearing out hormonal interference, and practical tips for supporting the lymphatic system and overall well-being.   Visit Patricia's website: PatriciaLuccardi.com Become a member of the Weston A.

As their name suggests, “forever chemicals” have extraordinary staying power. When these nearly indestructible compounds find their way into our soil and water, they don't break down for hundreds or thousands of years. PFAS – the name for these synthetic chemicals – isn't just in our natural environment. Scientists have found it everywhere, including in the blood of nearly every living being.  In this episode, we talk to the reporter who broke open the story about a decades-long corporate coverup regarding forever chemicals, look at what we know about their health effects, and consider how a kneecapping of the EPA's regulatory power may weaken the best tool we have for protecting ourselves from PFAS contamination.  Guests: Nathaniel Rich – Author of “Second Nature: Scenes from a World Remade,” and the New York Times Magazine article, “The Lawyer Who Became Dupont's Worst Nightmare” Rachel Frazin – Energy and Environment Policy reporter for The Hill, co-author of “Poisoning the Well: How Forever Chemicals Contaminated America” Janet McCabe – visiting professor at the Robert McKinney School of Law at Indiana University, former deputy administrator of the United States Environmental Protection Agency Featuring music by Dewey Dellay and Jun Miyake You can get early access to ad-free versions of every episode by joining us on Patreon.
