Death in The Garden

#40 Isabel Ramirez - Is Civilization Compatible With Our Biology?

07 Aug 2022

Description

On this episode of “Death in The Garden,” we talked to our brilliant, long-time friend of the podcast, Isabel Ramirez. Isabel is a board certified health coach specializing in chronic conditions (she is auto-immune and paleo certified), an expert forager, inspiring mother, and all around amazing person. We discussed the importance of inclusivity into wellness and regenerative agriculture spaces, the problems of financialization in the health and wellness world, the way an ancestrally appropriate diet and lifestyle can help manage chronic health conditions, the incapability of industrial civilization with the biological needs of our bodies, and how overwhelming it can be to attain health in modern times. We talk about the problems associated with healthcare being about “symptom control” rather than root cause treatments. Isabel breaks down the transition into modernity and how that has severed us from vital processes that help us maintain our health, including community, belonging, and access to healthy, in-season, biodiverse foods. We discuss how capitalism has motivated the homogenization and destruction of food through monocropping and chemically intensive practices.Isabel has a vast wealth of information, and we hope you enjoy this conversation.
