#87 - Taking Your Health in Your Own Hands

So many of us come to ancestral foods because of our own or our family’s health. We’ve tried what the mainstream medical model has to offer and we’re done with it. We want to look for and work with alternatives.And that journey can be a lonely and fraught one. The world doesn’t provide much support for taking this road less travelled and yet, when doing hard things and making tough decisions we sooo need support.That’s why we wanted to bring this episode, taking your health in your own hands, to the podcast. To offer perspective, support and encouragement to you, wherever you are on your health journey.In it, Alison talks with her husband Rob. Between them they’ve had 40 years attempting to manage their health outside the mainstream.They cover what taking your health in your own hands means and why you’d want to do it. They share some examples of where they’ve done this in our their lives including fertility, digestion, sleep and eyesight. They share what you need to be aware of along the way, what helps, how food plays into the journey, how to know when to call in help, the resources they’ve used and what this attitude to life and health has given them.They also, in a special aftershow for patrons of the podcast, cover applying this philosophy to children, sharing some of the healing journey they've been through with their son.
