Welcome to another Healthy Bite. This week on the podcast, we released an eye-opening episode with environmentalist Helena Norberg-Hodge. Helena outlines even more than you may have even thought about, as you wonder where our food is produced, whether our manufacturing is in our own country, whether you're buying your food from a local farmer, whether you are supporting regenerative agriculture and the regeneration of soil, and so much more. Join me as we discuss more about globalisation and the localisation movement. ----  You can also watch this episode at https://drronehrlich.com/ ----- TIME TO TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR HEALTH?

I want to talk about Nutritional and Environmental Medicine. There is one thing this focuses on: Ensuring that we have all the right nutrients for those processes to continue optimally. And if that is the case, there's a very good chance that you will enjoy good health. One of the things that I am hoping will emerge from this pandemic is a new focus on health care. On health, on immune function, on boosting immune function to be optimal because we need it not only to overcome the epidemic of preventable chronic diseases that we face but also to face the complications of this virus and this pandemic and for that matter, any future pandemic. ---- You can also watch this episode at www.DrRonEhrlich.com. ----- TIME TO TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR HEALTH?
