Hey friends, happy new year! Hope you had a wonderful holiday and ate lots of good food. I certainly feasted and got to enjoy my dad’s cooking for about two weeks straight, so no complaints.
And if you’re like me and overdid it a bit with the desserts or heavy meals or just feel like you need a reset, especially if you’ve been traveling, I’m here with Chef Dr. Mike today to share some tips on how to give your gut a proper rest. We talk about doing a fermented juice detox, intermittent fasting, and some of the science behind how your gut microbiome connects with your circadian rhythm and the seasons.

Sourcing tips for skincare olive oil:
- Varieties: Look for Koroneiki or Coratina varieties for high antioxidant content
- Check the harvest date
- Make sure it's extra virgin and cold pressed
- It should state a variety and a single source (ie. not a mix from different countries)
- It should leave a peppery finish on your palate

Joel Salatin, 64, calls himself a Christian libertarian environmentalist capitalist lunatic farmer. Others who like him call him the most famous farmer in the world, the high priest of the pasture, and the most eclectic thinker from Virginia since Thomas Jefferson. Those who don’t like him call him a bio-terrorist, Typhoid Mary, charlatan, and starvation advocate.
He co-owns, with his family, Polyface Farm in Swoope, Virginia. Featured in the New York Times bestseller Omnivore’s Dilemma and award-winning documentary Food Inc., the farm services more than 5,000 families, 50 restaurants, 10 retail outlets, and a farmers’ market with salad bar beef, pigaerator pork, pastured poultry, and forestry products. When he’s not on the road speaking, he’s at home on the farm, keeping the callouses on his hands and dirt under his fingernails, mentoring young people, inspiring visitors, and promoting local, regenerative food and farming systems.
In this episode, Joel shares how his family turned the worst piece of land into one of the most biodiverse farms in the country, why we ended up with a chemical-based agriculture system post-WWII, and what it will really take (logistically, financially, personally) to shift to a large-scale carbon-based food system.
