The Parallels Between Medicine and Agriculture | Will Harris

In this episode of You're the Cure, Dr. Ben Edwards sits down with legendary regenerative rancher Will Harris of White Oak Pastures in Bluffton, Georgia. Together, they explore the striking parallels between modern medicine and industrial agriculture—and why both have strayed from their natural design. Will shares his family’s six-generation journey from conventional cattle ranching to a thriving, regenerative, vertically integrated farm that now supports animals, soil health, and an entire rural community. From the day he decided he would never again load calves onto a semi-truck, to restoring organic matter in his soil and revitalizing his hometown, Will’s story is one of courage, stewardship, and transformation. Listeners will learn: How industrial agriculture mirrors industrialized medicine—and why both systems are failing. The critical role of soil microbes, enzymes, and cycles of nature in producing healthy food (and healthy people). How regenerative practices can rebuild ecosystems, rural economies, and communities. Practical insights for farmers, ranchers, and anyone seeking a better way forward in health and agriculture. Whether you’re passionate about food, health, or sustainability, this conversation will leave you inspired and equipped with hope for the future.   Dr. Ben & Will Harris will be speaking in Bandera, TX September 25th-28th at the "Food is Medicine" event.  Get tickets here and be sure to use promo code: BEN10 to receive 10% off
