In this episode of You're the Cure, Dr. Ben Edwards welcomes back the legendary "Lunatic Farmer" Joel Salatin for an eye-opening conversation on regenerative agriculture, food freedom, and the deep connections between farming and health. Joel shares the inspiring journey of Polyface Farm, where his family transformed depleted land into a thriving, sustainable ecosystem—all without chemical fertilizers or industrial farming methods. Dr. Edwards and Joel dive into the critical need for doctors and farmers to work together, the consequences of a broken food system, and the power of embracing ancestral farming practices. They discuss why food should be local, unprocessed, and raised in harmony with nature, challenging the conventional narratives that dominate modern agriculture and medicine. Joel also shares insights into his latest documentary, Lunatic Farmer, which captures his passion for regenerative farming and the fight against restrictive food policies. Whether you're a farmer, foodie, or simply curious about the future of food and health, this episode will leave you inspired and ready to take action.
