We have these two disciplines: Agriculture and Metabolic Health. They obviously are tightly joined. However that junction is often overlooked or at least not examined in enough detail- EXCEPT by Dr. Ballerstedt. We need more minds like his that bridge these two inseparable disciplines. Otherwise, the focus gets distorted and becomes ruled by agendas.
When it comes to human nutrition getting insulin down into the normal range and normalizing blood sugar comes first. I say that from a clinical perspective as a practicing physician. Metabolic disease is the norm now.
I tell my patients who are struggling with hypertension, diabetes and obesity and the other numerous manifestations of metabolic illness that the hot from the C-store in burgers without a bun found in many fast food restaurants are great for improving health. Eat readily available foods without carbohydrates and health continues to improve.
So in practice my patients of limited means are getting healthy eating or ordinary meat and eggs from the grocery stores.
My patients who are financially well off can enjoy supporting regenerative agriculture.
PS I use regenerative agricultural principles in my garden. The soil was amazingly fertile and I use 1/3 as much water as I used to.
PhD (he's not that kind of doctor) Ballerstedt examines how we unconsciously by using words that are poorly defined don't just create ambiguity in our wellness, but often create the opposite, detriment under the guise of good intent.

Thank you, Henry.
